Barron Trump (March 20, 2006)

His look is so different to his father that one cannot help but wonder…

Since he is now a public celebrity, I am going to look at his birth chart. Previously, when I was tempted to do so, I refrained because he was too young. In six week’s time he will be 19.

This birth time is considered ‘good’. A couple of aspects stand out as significant: there is a Grand Trine linking the Sun, the Moon and Saturn; and Mercury and Uranus are conjunct his Pisces Ascendant, while Venus is conjunct Neptune, all of which are in the 12th House (of the Unconscious). There is one inconjunct.

Mars Inconjunct Jupiter

With this aspect you probably are quite active, with abundant energy for anything you want to do. But you must learn to control your energies rather than have them control you. You may be inclined to take excessive risks, to try out things that you are not sure you can do. But be careful, because with this aspect the energies of Mars and Jupiter do not work very smoothly together. If you overextend yourself and try to do more than you are physically capable of, you may have an accident. Also you may be clumsy when you take up a new activity until you learn to control your physical body better.

When you are very tall, and quite slender, this warning may be quite accurate.

Is Barron the Return of His Great Uncle John?

Their looks are similar, quite unlike his father, Donald, and his paternal grandfather, Fred. It was the nagging thought that wouldn’t go away; has John returned as Barron?

At first glance, I would say “yes” but some of the connections are more tenuous than others. For instance, Barron’s South Node is within 5° of John’s natal Ascendant (in Libra). But John’s birth time was randomized, which brings that connection into question. Barron’s Sun, however, is conjunct both John’s natal Saturn and his ‘fatal’ Moon. I suppose the interactive Yod, pointing at Barron’s Saturn (representing his father), formed by the inconjuncts to John’s ‘fatal’ Neptune and John’s triple ‘fatal’ conjunction of the Sun, Mercury and Midheaven has me wondering if Fred had made a promise to himself to look after Donald in the future. Nothing is beyond the realms of possibility.

Hmm.
