Well! The heir to the throne that
everyone has been waiting for finally arrived July 22, somewhat
overdue. He was a BIG baby, weighing in at 8 pounds, 6 ounces. The
official birth-time was given as 4:24 pm, London time, giving baby
George a late Scorpio ascendant and a Full Moon chart.
First a note about his given names. He
has been dubbed “George Alexander Louis” and will be called His
Royal Highness Prince George of Cambridge.
The internet quickly picked up on the
fact that these names coincidentally (?) honor the actors who played
the major roles on the old Seinfeld TV series. That is, George
Costanza, Jason Alexander, and Julia Louis-Dreyfus.
Will this irreverence offend the Queen? Will the names affect the
relationship between the young couple and the Queen?
I like to check first to see if any
planets are on late degrees of any signs. Baby George has two,
the Sun at 29 degrees of Cancer and the Moon at 28 degrees Capricorn.
Late degrees of Cancer can signify a hefty inheritance, or carrying
on a family business. Of course the family business in his case is
the throne; this might be one signal that George might actually reign
one day. [John F. Kennedy had Saturn in a late degree of Cancer, too;
his “family business” was politics.] Late degrees of Capricorn
helps one in the business world, especially in building up a large
business. Maybe this will help him to promote British industry and
trade. Interestingly, Princess Diana had Saturn at 27 degrees
Capricorn; she was a great boost to the British fashion industry.

Then I like to check also to see if
there are planets on critical degrees. [The critical degrees
are 0, 13 and 26 of the cardinal signs; 8 and 22 degrees of the fixed
signs, and 4 and 17 of the mutable signs.] George has three planets
on critical degrees: Mercury at 13 degrees Cancer, Uranus at 12
degrees Aries, and Neptune at 5 degrees Pisces. While the placements
of Uranus and Neptune affect many thousands of babies born that week,
Mercury is interesting because it just went direct on July 20. I feel
that Mercury is stronger due to the fact that it is almost hovering
in one spot, even though it is actually moving forward now.
Mutual Reception-- George
has Moon and Mars in mutual reception. Mars in Cancer (Mars is in
its detriment in Cancer) is exalted in Capricorn; Moon in Capricorn
(the Moon is in its fall in Capricorn) is ruler of Cancer. Both
planets are weak by natal position, but are strengthened by the
mutual reception. There are other and more subtle mutual receptions,
created by planets being in a house that they also rule.
Grand Trine-- George
has a Grand Trine in water signs, composed of the Jupiter-Mars
conjunction in Cancer, Neptune in Pisces, and Saturn in Scorpio. He
may be very emotional, yet his intuition could guide him to a deeper
knowledge and deeper understanding of life and people. Much will
depend on the guidance he receives from those around him.
T-squares--
George has a T-square composed of the Mars-Jupiter conjunction
opposite Pluto in Capricorn, square Uranus in Aries. His Sun-Moon
opposition is also squared by Saturn, tho it's a bit wide with a 5
degree orb. So there will be many challenges set before him, but I
have to say that cardinal signs tend to enjoy a challenge. The
drawback is that cardinal signs tend to rush in where fools fear to
tread, before they have properly assessed the risk and developed a
plan of attack. Let's hope that he is part of a team effort that will
shore up his weaknesses.
I am very disturbed by George's chart.
I feel that he will be much too rash and invite disaster due to the
Mars-Jupiter-Mercury opposed to Pluto. These are in the eighth-second
house axis which sometimes denotes a daredevil, someone who thinks he
is invincible and immortal and dares the devil to take him. [Evel
Knievel and Neil Armstrong have a Moon-Mars opposition across the
second-eighth house axis; Armstrong's Mars is late in the first
house.]
At any rate, Mars conjunct Jupiter is
either a great athlete or a big gambler. With Pluto opposed, he is
sure to lose the bet – eventually, anyway. Perhaps when
Mars-Jupiter progress to an exact square to Uranus, he may run out
of luck.
George does have a wonderful Full Moon
opposition in his third and ninth houses, which can indicate
intellectual curiosity and even brilliance. He will love to read, and
may be a history nut. He may show an intuitive grasp of difficult
principles. Where he may have inherited scholastic brilliance will be
a mystery, because certainly the rest of the family is astonishingly
poorly if expensively educated.
If you use planetary hours, George was
born in a Saturn hour. I have not been tracking this kind of thing,
so I have no idea of the significance of this factoid. I do know that
Queen Elizabeth II has a prominent Saturn in her natal chart,
representing the heavy responsibilities of the throne. Could this be
another hint that he may one day wear the crown?
AMENDED
TO ADD: The best part of his chart is the strong
driver of the Sun-Saturn square (even though it is an out-of-sign
square from late Cancer to early Scorpio). He will be driven to
achieve something with his life and adopt challenges that few could
tackle. People with a Sun-Saturn square just keep going in spite of
the obstacles. He could really become a famous and accomplished
person aside from the fact of being born into the royal family. This
square is something that he shares with his father William. William
has his Sun-Moon square both Jupiter and Saturn in Libra, and so far
he is using it in his search-and-rescue career.
