An Astrological Analysis and Takedown of Donald Trump
The natal astrology chart of Donald Trump reveals, in a very clear and graphic way, the overall spirit, personality and character of the man, and especially his many flaws and shortcomings. It's a portrait of his whole life, actually. In this article, I will proceed to analyze and interpret the natal chart of Donald Trump, starting with what I think to be the most important planetary configurations in his chart, and working my way down from there. The link to Donald Trump's natal chart is as follows:

Donald Trump has his natal Ascendant in Leo. Leo is the royal sign of the zodiac, and it is ruled by the Sun. People born with their Ascendant in Leo tend to be egotistical and autocratic, as well as generous, magnanimous, and charismatic. But Trump's Ascendant is at 29 degrees of Leo - the final degree, also called the Anaretic degree, which highlights the more problematic aspects of the sign. Not only that, but Trump's Ascendant is conjunct, within a degree, of the Royal Fixed Star Regulus, which is also called Cor Leonis, or the Heart of the Lion in Latin. And so, you get Don Corleone, the mob boss president. With his Ascendant, which represents one's basic approach to life, conjunct the Royal Star Regulus, Trump has always thought of himself as a king, and hence all the gold and royal trappings he likes to surround himself with. Also, Trump is incapable of being a president, who should be an elected servant of the American people - he thinks of himself as King. Being the sign of the star, the celebrity, everything tends to be personal for those with Ascendants in Leo - and especially for Donald Trump, for whom personal loyalty to himself is paramount for all he has dealings with. Not too long ago, Regulus went into Virgo, the sign of the Virgin, due to the precession of the vernal equinox point of the tropical zodiac, and this pretty much coincided with the "Me Too" movement of women coming out of the closet about rape - and this also put Donald Trump into the spotlight for his many sexual assaults on women at this time.
With his Ascendant in Leo, the next most important planet to look at in Donald Trump's chart is his Sun, since the Sun is the planetary ruler of Trump's Leo Ascendant. Being born on June 14, Donald Trump's Sun is at 22 degrees and 55 minutes of Gemini, the sign of the Twins, and also the sign of the sophist and con man for whom there is no fixed or absolute ethics or morality. Trump's Gemini Sun sits right on the cusp of his Eleventh House, and one of the things that this house is associated with is income, which he inherited from his father Fred - and the Sun represents the father in astrology. Wherever the Sun is, there is the center of the person's life, and definitely, Trump's life revolved around the generous financial support and inheritance from his father. And daddy Fred Trump was definitely the embodiment of the Gemini wheeler dealer and crooked businessman; Trump learned his crooked business ways from his father.
In a very tight opposition to Trump's Gemini Sun is his Moon in Sagittarius, with the Moon representing the mother in astrology. The exact opposition between the Sun and the Moon, which happens once a month, is the Full Moon, and Trump's natal Moon, the faster planet, being only a little more than one and a half degrees away from the full opposition of the Full Moon, was quickly closing in on the opposition - Trump was born only about 3 hours before the exact Full Moon. In contrast to Gemini, the sign of moral relativism and anything goes, Sagittarius, its opposing sign, is a sign of strong moral principles, to guide one in one's search for the Truth in life. Wrapped up in this very tight opposition between the Sun and the Moon in Trump's chart is a lot of dynamic tension, and even the possibility for conflict or dilemma - and with Gemini / Sagittarius, it is the tension between the moral relativism and sophistry of Gemini versus the moral principles and truthfulness of Sagittarius. Of his two parents, I feel that it was primarily his mother who tried to drum some moral principles and a sense of right and wrong into him - Trump was sent off to a military school to get "straightened out" when he was an adolescent, and probably it was mainly his mother who was behind this. But as it turned out, Donald wound up taking after his dad, who valued a winner with killer instincts above all else, and crooked businessman Fred wound up being Trump's role model.
Another very interesting feature of Trump's natal chart is that his Full Moon solar / lunar opposition is fairly tightly conjunct the axis of his lunar nodes, which delineates one's karmic trajectory through life. It may be this close paralleling of the axis of his lunar nodes to his core solar / lunar opposition that explains why Trump has so far been able to skirt the law and how he was constantly enabled, mainly by his dad Fred. and why the law has been so slow in catching up with him so far.
Trump has Mars, the planet of libido, in a fairly tight conjunction with his Leo Ascendant, on the twelfth house side. This explains his tendency towards infidelity and romantic escapades and affairs. With Mars on his Ascendant, Trump sees life as a big battle, basically, and he learned the art of fighting it from prominent mentors in his life (the Eleventh House, where he has his Sun, is also the house of mentors and role models) like dad Fred and mob lawyer Roy Cohn.
Also important is the conjunction of Trump's Sun with Uranus. And so, Trump had an image of himself as being the rebel and renegade, and had a predilection for creating instability and chaos. Aspects between the Sun and Uranus, including the conjunction, can also lead to mood instability and bipolarity. With his natal chart being centered around his solar / lunar opposition, his basic modus operandi accoriding to Mary Trump, was to created chaos and division, and then exploit it for his own gain. Let's face it - Trump's a divider, not a uniter. With Uranus so close to his natal Sun, Trump tends to be haphazard, having poor impulse control, and is definitely not much of a planner.
And one more thing to mention in this astrological takedown of Donald Trump: He has Neptune, the planet of dreams, fantasy and deception, in his Second House of material resources, as well as Jupiter, the Major Benefic planet that brings all the goodies. Jupiter represents dad Fred's generosity towards him, whereas Neptune his tendency to lie and exaggerate about his material resources, and maybe also to "cook the books" on his financial statements. Trump is always bragging about his wealth, but a writer challenged him, saying that he wasn't really a billionaire, Trump sued him, but he won his case in court, because he was able to prove it. Having Neptune in his Second house also indicates that a lot of his real estate projects were long on the dreams and vision of it all, but when it came to reality, Trump fell flat on his face and had to declare bankruptcy many times.
So these are the basics of Donald Trump's natal astrology chart, which explain most of the stuff you see going on with him. I'm interested in receiving your opinion and feedback.

I'm not an astrologer but have been interested in it for 42 years. I had known trump was Leo Rising and Moon in Sag.. but didn't didn't know it was 29° 56' Leo.
Now personally I'm more interested in where his Chart is taking him as far as being Convicted is Concerned.
Thank you!
I guess if the "he" had been trump, it would have been noteworthy for him having proven anything with evidence.
