life of a savy investor - multinational conglomerate - philanthropist

FORBES 2019 & BILLIONAIRES: According to company Forbes, in 2019 Warren Buffet kept the position of the 3rd wealthiest person on planet Earth. The first position being held by Jeff Bezos [which I can’t find the right birth data] and in 2nd place Bill Gates [Microsoft] still holds the same position for the year of 2019.

RADIX OF A SAVY INVESTOR

ASSERTIVE PERSONALITY

one of the Berkshire Hathaway's business

“I always knew I was going to be rich. I don’t think I ever doubted it for a minute.”

The radix of Warren tells me a lot about the qualities of a billionaire. For sure, one shall have an assertive personality and a strong drive to success in life.  Although not the instant ingredients for turning oneself a billionaire overnight, it is a fair description that astrology can provide. Angular Saturn ruler of 2nd house in the radix of Buffett is opposite angular Mars ruler of cardinal and also angular 4th house. Mars-Saturn aspect is often in charts of people really fight for their position in the world and usually stand out by such actions taken in certain periods. For example, when Saturn is directed to the Moon by primary direction, Warren buys Berkshire Hathaway [see more ahead], the major source of his billions. Plus, natal Saturn is in 1st house [natally ruled by Mars] and domicile in Capricorn.

MOON & JUPITER IN MUTUAL RECEPTION

overcoming difficulties with easy

Warren was born to have plenty of this and that, and those are of Moon nature. The Moon is also in terms with Jupiter. Meaning that all directions involving Jupiter, it would also take the Moon’s position into account.

JUPITER-PLUTO CONJUNCTION

UNSTOPPABLE MULTIPLICATION OF WEALTHINESS

Such aspect are often seen in charts of billionaires! [or related somehow]. Not only that, Warren’s natal Jupiter is exalted in Cancer and the planet is the Almudebit [victorious] of the radix, plus Warren was born in the hour of Jupiter. Jupiter’s one major quality is to expand or to multiply once it doesn’t understand limits. Pluto is also the planet of wealthiness and unlimited resources.

VENUS CONJUNCT BEHENIAN FIXED STAR SPICA

THE STAR OF THE RICH

¹ “If rising or culminating: Unbounded good fortune, happiness, ecclesiastical preferment, unexpected honor or advancement beyond native’s hopes or capacity.” [Robson, p.211.]

Note that Venus ruler of 10th house of Warren is quite important, it is from the 10th house profected years-house when the investor invests in Berkshire and Coca-cola [see more ahead]. We can’t forget the fact Warren’s Venus is exact conjunct behenian fixed star Spica: ¹Agrippa1531 Spica.png Its image is a bird, or a man laden with merchandise. It gives riches, overcomes contentions, and removes scarcity and mischief. Rules emerald, sage, trefoil, periwinkle, mugwort and mandrake.” 

ASSERTING FUTURE

THE MARS-SATURN OPPOSITION

“Rule No. 1: Never lose money. Rule No. 2: Never forget rule No.1” – Warren Buffett

astrology of warren buffett - thezodiacus.com

Saturn is aware of failures, Mars is aware of what needs to be conquered. Together, such planetary alignment would let the native quite aware of the future holds in order to assert in the present. This is primeval instinct. Personal planet Mars is detrimental in Cancer and descends in the radix, and that was something of huge difference for Warren. Observe why:

“Beware the investment activity that produces applause; the great moves are usually greeted by yawns.”

Since the aspect is not seeing with good eyes by astrologers simple because it is an opposition, we could expect something that would make Warren curl in bed sometimes. Wikipedia wirtes: “In 2010, Buffett claimed that purchasing Berkshire Hathaway was the biggest investment mistake he had ever made, and claimed that it had denied him compounded investment returns of about $200 billion over the subsequent 45 years.[14] Buffett claimed that had he invested that money directly in insurance businesses instead of buying out Berkshire Hathaway (due to what he perceived as a slight by an individual), those investments would have paid off several hundredfold”. The opposition is only the start of his addiction to money, status and power – inside Buffett’s radix hides a T-square activated by natal Mercury in the 9th house of everything that is huge and multiplies.

Warren Buffett Annual Profections - thezodiacus.com

Note that in both major investments in his life, annual profected ascendant in both years were in Libra, the natal 10th house cusp of Warren’s radix [circle in white line]. Not only the cusp of Mc is bounded with the greater benefic Jupiter, the great planet Venus/Spica is conjunct the 10th house. Venus is the planet of investments/finances in long term, quite different from Saturn that prefers to invest in the future and not in the present. Well, in Warren’s radix, Saturn is ruler of 2nd house of investments/resources/assets. In consequence of the year of 1964-5 when he was 34 years old, Warren’s future was assured when buying Berkshire Hathaway. Twenty-four years later, when the annual profected ascendant comes back to Libra, it happens the buying of Coca-Cola stake which at the end of 2017, Berkshire’s almost 10 percent stake in the company is worth $18.4 billion. Worth also noting that Venus is also ruler of 10th house. Buffett ended up building some kind of investor career. Many times when Warren decided to buy a stake [GEICO, Duracell, Dairy Queen, BNSF, Lubrizol, Fruit of the Loom, Helzberg Diamonds, Long & Foster, FlightSafety International, Pampered Chef, NetJets, Apple Inc, etc.] the profections usually involved ruler of 2nd house, 2nd house itself, 1st house, Venus/Spica, Saturn or 10th house, etc. some way or another. 

Firdaria[s]

firdaria of the 'buying of Apple Inc.'

Since he ‘built a career’ of a savy investor, watch out when the Firdaria of benefic Venus [elevated in 10th house and ruler of it] in the sub-period of itself [manager] came by. It corresponded to the period and managing of such career while investing in a company that since 2016 has filled Warren’s pockets with millions, and as of February 2019, Berkshire owns 5.4% of Apple with 255,300,329 shares. Natal Venus/Spica aspect the Jupiter-Pluto conjunction [other’s people resources] in impressively intuitive Cancer, meaning that whatever Venus stuff he had to deal during the corresponding period, it was going to be huge and powerful. It is a period that the native shall deal with Venusian themes, such as resources, money, investments, stakes, assets, etc. 

eclipses on the axis of 1st-2nd houses

In 1965 when Warren buys Berkshire solar and lunar eclipses touched his Ascendant/Descendant while sextile natal Venus/Spica.

SECONDARY PROGRESSION FACTS

When Warren buys Berkshire in 1965, progressed Moon was in sextile to natal Saturn [ruler of 2nd house of money/income. 

When Bershire buys Coca-cola stakes in 1988, Warren’s progressed Moon was opposite progressed Jupiter-Pluto [in exact conjunction].

Direction of 1st steps towards Billions

major directions of investments

- 1965 - Buys Berkshire Hathaway
--------------------------------
- 1988 - Buys Coca-Cola stake (At the end of 2017, Berkshire’s almost 10 percent stake in the company is worth $18.4 billion)

The Arc given by Saturn-Moon is one of the most important directions of Warren’s life. It is from this point, that Warren’s future was assured by such intuitive investment: 

the direction is off only a month

1965 – Buys Berkshire Hathaway: In order for Saturn to reach out for the Moon, it needs to first rise above the horizon, and years later it would conjoin it by primary motion direct, and for that, it would also enter in terms with Jupiter! Note that Saturn [career] is ruler of 2nd house of money – it marked the day of the beginning of thousands, millions to billions dollars. The Moon on the other hand, is ruler of intercepted 7th house Cancer, the house of partnerships. The Berkshire already existed since 1839. Warren was born to associate with powerful people’s resources [Jupiter-Pluto-Mars in 7th house] since his first promising investment at 35 years old.

Now, lets investigate and examine the direction when Coca-cola’s stake is bought by Berkshire Hathaway:

the direction is the exact year when Warren re-assures the future of his company [saturn]

1988 – Buys Coca-Cola stake: Saturn again! oh dear. It is as if Warren consulted astrologers wow. The thing in here, is that Saturn in order to reach out for the opposition of the Sun in the 8th house of other’s people resources, it must be moved to the 2nd house of money – the house which rulers Saturn in Warren’s radix. Coca-cola is one of the most expensive companies in the entire world, famous for generations. It was recruiting other’s people resources [8th house] in order to actualize [Sun] its own company, concerning new investments [Saturn moved to 2nd house]. At the end of 2017, Berkshire’s almost 10 percent stake in the company is worth $18.4 billion.

INVESTING UNDER POWERFUL STELLIUM IN CRITICAL VIRGO

[May 10th; 1965] - Transits & Radix of Warren Buffett

May 10th, 1965Congruence: When Warren bought Berkshire on this exact date, transiting Mars was opposite transiting Saturn! The aspect that Buffett has natally. 

Transiting Moon [Firdaria Owner] was conjunction transiting Uranus-Mars-Pluto and thus conjunct natal Sun in 8th house of other’s people resources. Now, the sub-period of Firdaria was still Jupiter. Transiting Jupiter [also term ruler of 10th house] was exact trine natal Mercury, ruler of 7th house of partnerships and significant other/partners, while opposition natal Moon.

The circles and lines in orange on the chart above, is what happened with the profected house for that year/period of 1964-1965 crossed with transits. Transiting Mercury, ruler of 7th house [in this case, was the significant ex-owner of Berkshire] was in natal 4th house of major beginnings while opposite natal Venus/Spica [in 10th house].

SOLAR RETURN THAT ASSURED WARREN'S FINANCIAL FUTURE

SOLAR RETURN 1964

BERKSHIRE IS ACQUIRED

Warren Buffett Solar Return [1964] - Annual Ascendant in Aries [natal 4th house]

Annual Ascendant in Aries indicates it was a year where the focus/sight of attention was to happen/make/complete/do a major thing, once Aries anti-culminates in the radix [in the natal 4th house cusp]. The Sun returns in the 6th house of critical Virgo and in Virgo [of course]. The thing is that the Sun returns with Uranus conjunction, foreseeing a year of profound reversal in life.

the primary direction from SR1964 is exact

When the returning Sun is taking by primary direction to the second house cusp [of money] and thus conjunct Jupiter the greater benefic, we have the exact date [only a few hours off] when Warren buys Berkshire Hathaway! The major source of Buffett’s whole patrimony. 

Another direction from the SR that also corresponds well the well invested Hathaway. 

the primary direction from SR1964 is exact

When the Moon of the Sun return chart reaches the descendant direct, contracts [7th house] are sealed [Moon].
