JULIAN ASSANGE TRAITOR OR HERO?
Julian Assange who is the editor-in-chief of Wikileaks, a whistle blowing website, has been called a traitor and a hero. Strictly from the point of view of astrology, let's look at what his chart says.
He has a Cancer Sun, which by its nature looks out for its own. However with his Venus in the very cold sign of Gemini (cold for Venus), he isn't as warm and cuddly as most Cancer people. He has a problem with trust issues and even with lying in relationships. Then add Mars in Aquarius, the humanitarian sign, but also chilly.
His Moon in Scorpio is in its fall. The Moon's position is a very important tool in understanding how someone operates. The Moon is how you feel and how you relate. So a Moon in its fall isn't relating that well. It's a water Moon that can use manipulation as a weapon. Jealousy is also a trait associated with this Moon. Often the mother of a male is conniving so they see all women as conniving. And they keep injustice files -- all the people that have done them wrong. Dan White, who shot and killed Harvey Milk and Mayor Mascone had this Moon and he killed the people he felt did him wrong.
His focal planet (two planets oppose and the focal planet squares) is mutable Pluto. This is very appropriate for someone who is exposing wrong doers (from his point of view), because focal Pluto is all about the right and wrong of the situation. People with this placement can be very willful and even subversive in their actions. Revolutionary is a word that can be appropriate. His intellectual resources are quite powerful. And he can be highly motivated.
The question surrounding him, from my point of view, is truth. With his Neptune placement in the 1st House of Yourself involved in the T-square (which squares Pluto), I would question his honesty. What part of what he is doing involves the truth? He's lying to someone. Who?
