An Astrological Reading of John Waite

reading performed by Stephanie Starr-Medcalf

 

This reading is based solely on John's date of birth, his place of birth, and his time of birth. We knew the date (July 4, 1952) and place (Lancaster, England) for sure, but we had to totally guess on the time. For the time, we plugged in "sunrise." However, if anyone out there has information on John's actual time of birth, please let me know.

This reading tells us what astrology says John is like. Compare it to what you know of John Waite and decide for yourself how accurate (or unaccurate) it is.

As a Cancer, John has a very strong need to nurture others. He really needs to feel that he is "part of the family," and will go a long way towards making others feel the same way. The way to his heart is through good food and a cozy atmosphere. He is, however, a bit of an odd kind of Cancer because he can never fully relax. The energy that gives him his originality also makes him very restless, nervous and impatient. The people close to him can never *really* be sure of what he's going to do next.

John is a doer, not content to sit still and let others take care of things. His symbol is the crab. Cancerians certainly go after what they want, but they rarely do it in a straightforward way. They come at it from the side, the way a crab walks sideways on the beach. And if someone threatens their approach they'll pull back in their shell until it seems safe again. It may be a roundabout way . . . but they get there!

Cancerians are ruled by the Moon, which makes them moody. Their emotional insecurity makes them want to hold onto things - many Cancerians are die-hard packrats. And this applies not only to "stuff" but to people. Cancerians are just about the last people to let go in a relationship! Just when you think it's finally over, they'll show up at your door with a home-cooked gourmet meal.

John has a natural charm and ease. He's naturally popular, which is fortunate because he also has a deep need to be liked. Opportunities often seem to just drop into his lap. He has a great ability to just "wander" into the right situation at the right time. When he takes action to make the most of this luck, nothing can stop him. However, he also has a tendency to take his luck for granted, which leads to missed opportunities and failures.

On the other side of the coin, as lucky as he is, he always seems to have obstacles thrown in his way, and boy, are they doozies. Ultimately, success is his because he takes all the obstacles in stride, overcomes them and learns from them. He needs to be particularly careful to avoid getting discouraged. He sometimes feels like just as he thinks he's got an obstacle beat, there was more to it he didn't know about and he's back to square one. Staying focused on the facts and the here and now will help him overcome anything in his way and lead to his ultimate success.

John's basic, overall personality is that of a Cancer. However, the other planets in his chart add different dimensions to his personality. Here is a breakdown of four other "planets" (the Moon, Mercury, Venus and Mars), and what they add to his mental and emotional makeup. What about the rest of the planets (Jupiter-Pluto), you ask? The rest of the planets move so slowly that they affect whole generations more than individuals. So in the interest of looking at John's basic personality, they were not considered.

John's Moon is in Scorpio. The Moon rules your emotions, and is a very important "planet" in John's chart because Cancerians are ruled by the Moon. Having a Scorpio Moon means John is very secretive in his emotional life. He's very intense and passionate, and rarely takes no for an answer! He doesn't like to be rushed into a commitment, personal or professional. But once he makes his mind up he holds on for all he's worth. He has an incredible amount of will power, and a great talent for overcoming adversity. He's shrewd, and probably a bit on the emotionally controlling side as well.

John's Mercury in Leo is where he gets his talent for performing. Mercury rules communication of all kinds, and Leo wants to take the stage! He has no trouble forming his own opinions and ideas, and sticks to them stubbornly. He has a unique and dramatic flair that guarantees he'll get the attention he wants. When he leaves, everyone *knows* he was there!

Venus in Cancer heightens all of John's Cancerian traits, and make him a sweet, cuddly, kind of guy. He's probably a great homemaker! Unfortunately, love relationships are tough for him. He may have a problem really expressing himself romantically, which leads to not getting what he needs. He has no trouble at all *meeting* people, but when it comes to getting serious life gets difficult for him. Another part of the problem is that he tends to have very unrealistic expectations of his partners; he sees them through rose-colored glasses, or puts them on a pedestal. But reality always intrudes somewhere along the line, and when it does it shatters the illusion. For John, there is also the big possibility of deception and infidelity in romance. He may just be getting involved with the wrong women!

Mars in Scorpio brings John an even bigger dose of intensity and sexiness. His actions are generally prompted by emotional needs, and he may hide his real reason for doing things. But when he moves, everyone better get out of his way! He needs to guard against being provoked into taking revenge for wrongs.
