Rob Ford’s astrology chart with no exact time on May 28 1969 Toronto shows the Sun in Gemini at 7 degrees.

 Gemini is airy, chatty, all over the place, immature, Peter Pan complex.

The Sun is conjunct Retrograde Mercury, Gemini’s ruling planet at 8 degrees. This combination puts the infamous Gemini split- personality duality into further treacherous zones as Mercury’s power is fizzled out by the Sun’s bright rays. Bad communicator. Not good for political office.

Can’t ever decide which side of the fence he is on, Mr. Rob is always waffling. Do you think this makes a good mayor?

 Mercury is opposite Mars, which is also Retrograde. This further increases his natal opposition of thought and action.  See Mars below-

Moon seems to be in Libra at 27 degrees so he can seem fair and ambassadorial and can be charming. Moon represents emotions, feelings, and detachment in airy Libra. A people who needs people kinda guy. Lots of air here,{ hot?} also indicates indecisiveness.

Venus at 23 degrees of Aries, is brash, not inclined to beauty, a lover of war and spontaneous actions, easily gets in over his head.

Venus is weak in Aries but all Arian planets are full of energy and drive. Not too charming.  Venus  is opposite the Moon. Indicates a strong attachment to his mother, and needing emotional security. Emotional needs are met through money, luxury, knowing the right people.

Mars in Sagittarius also Retrograde, This guy has lots of karmic repeat lessons as indicated by so many Retrograde planets at his birth. Retrograde Mars is repeating a lesson around power, abuse, being a warrior, aggression, issues with men, teachers, the law. Co-incidentally Rob Ford was the outlaw who killed Jesse James.  This aspect also indicates difficulty in school, higher education is not his forte to put it mildly.

Someone who is unsophisticated, and crude by nature, a Centaur. Mars opposite to Mercury means - he may think he has the brains but its all brawn.  Afraid to stretch his imagination or try anything new, has difficulty grasping a sense of higher idealism.

A bad teacher and leader.

Jupiter is in Virgo conjunct Pluto and Uranus.  Jupiter is expansive, in Virgo it is usually a perfectionist, a nitpicker, a hard worker dedicated to serving others, but also himself.  Big health problems with Jupiter in Virgo. Retrograde Uranus and Pluto huddle around Jupiter, three planets in a huddle are called a stellium. All their energies are intermingled and act inseparably as one entity.

 Jupiter conjunct Pluto is power, riches but can also be back room politics, unusually deceptive, deceitful, revengeful, revolutionary underpinnings, and a big bluffer.

Saturn represents the father, authority, maturity, corporate structure, seniority, karma, struggles, obstacles, career and worldly recognition. His father was in politics, Saturn in Taurus, well he looks very Taurean. Stocky, stubborn, salt of the earth kinda reg Joe guy. Sensual, fixed, stable, conservative. Pluto is trining his Saturn right now. This lends him power in his career now. It is an easy aspect.

Neptune is also Retrograde at 27 degrees of Scorpio. Neptune rules illusions, delusions, spirituality, dreams, working behind the scenes, mental health, compassion, alcoholism, and addictions. In Scorpio this can be all smoke and mirrors. Posing as a compassionate person meanwhile digging the dirt, very deeply ruthlessly, someone with very addictive behaviours, untrustworthy. This is an old karmic pattern.

His North Node is at 27 degrees of Pisces. The North Node represents the highest spiritual goal. In Pisces, this is root for the underdog, be a chameleon, mutable, full of illusions, a  martyr, works behind the scenes. In square to the Galactic Center. A space cadet if unconscious, which he is.

Interestingly Jupiter and Uranus are on his North Node right now, so expect the Unexpected, Big changes but not necessarily stable at all. This helps him to grow and expands his higher goals. His personal ones. Jupiter and Uranus are opposite his natal Jupiter and Uranus in Virgo. The planets are also opposite his Pluto and his South Node too, which is at 27 degrees of Virgo and trining his Natal Neptune in Scorpio. Interestingly the transiting North Node will enter Sagittarius in early 2011 and transit the Galactic Center at 27 degrees of Sagittarius in March.

Transiting Neptune and Chiron are squaring his natal Neptune- this is a classic. This is a mid life transit where the person being affected feels like al is rosy, and is set up for a huge fall! If Rob thinks he’s risen to the top and he sees the world through rose coloured glasses! Well better get a big cushion ready for your arse.

Pluto will be squaring his Natal Chiron in Aries at 6 degrees shortly. Chiron is the wounded healer. As Pluto rules the soul, you got be clean and transparent- he does use these words. Pluto is power riches control. This can give him the power to heal others and conversely get a huge kick in the teeth himself. Jupiter will transit his Chiron in the spring. That’s a big hurt. Oy what a headache! One way or the  other.

Jupiter is intrepidly marching through Aries in 2011 hitting his Venus and onto Taurus where Rob will experience a Jupiter Saturn conjunction, which is an excellent transit. It happens only once every 12 years.

These are some very powerful transits he is having. When dealing with Uranian energy the outcome is erratic, it is all about re-inventing yourself.

I don’t like Rob Ford myself. My pendulum said Rob would win.
