Thomas Jefferson (Aries)

Jefferson’s pioneering approach and relentless energy showcased the cardinal fire of Aries.

James Madison (Pisces)

Another Pisces, Madison’s intuitive nature and emotional intelligence shone through in his role as the Father of the Constitution. His advocacy for individual rights and justice reflects the Piscean blend of deep feeling and a strong sense of duty.

James Buchanan (Taurus)

Buchanan’s tenure is marked by his Taurean stubbornness and focus on stability, which were evident in his cautious, often criticized, handling of the secession crisis. His desire for continuity and harmony typifies Taurus's steadfast, albeit sometimes inflexible, nature... which may have helped trigger the Civil War.

Abraham Lincoln (Aquarius)

Embodying the Aquarian ideals of progress and humanity, Lincoln’s presidency was transformative, aimed at abolishing slavery and preserving the Union. His innovative and inclusive leadership style highlights the Aquarian traits of vision and reform.

William Howard Taft (Virgo)

Detail-oriented and practical, Taft’s administration focused on judicial reform and efficiency, hallmarks of Virgo's meticulous and service-oriented approach.

Woodrow Wilson (Capricorn)

Wilson, ambitious and disciplined, leveraged Capricorn’s determination in his leadership during World War I and his vision for the League of Nations. His pragmatic and strategic governance align with Capricorn's earthy, goal-focused nature. Indeed, he also was involved in the Treaty of Versailles and passing women's voting rights.

Franklin D. Roosevelt (Aquarius)

Visionary and progressive, FDR's transformative policies during the Great Depression and World War II embody Aquarius’ traits of innovation and humanitarianism. His ability to inspire hope and drive significant social change showcases his forward-thinking leadership.

Bill Clinton (Leo)

Charismatic and confident, Clinton’s ability to connect with people and his dynamic leadership embody the Leo qualities of warmth, creativity, and a commanding presence. His charm and persuasive abilities were central to his presidency... and also got him into a bit of trouble.

George W. Bush (Cancer)

His presidency, often focused on security and family values, mirrored Cancer’s protective and nurturing characteristics.

Joe Biden (Scorpio)

Biden’s long career, marked by personal resilience and a focus on healing and unity, mirrors Scorpio’s depth and transformative capacity. His empathetic and ambitious leadership style and determination to continue into such an old age reflect the intense and purposeful nature of Scorpio. But his decision to eventually pull out of the running reflect some of Scorpio's determined, loyal and brave qualities.

Bonus: Kamala Harris (Libra)

And if you're wondering about the other 2024 candidate: diplomatic and justice-oriented, Vice President Harris embodies Libra’s qualities of fairness and balance. Looking at her failed presidential campaign from the viewpoint of astrology, we might say that it would have been hard for her to out-navigate the Gemini that Trump embodies. To compare, it would have been like Jimmy Carter beating JFK. So, maybe, astrology explains why she didn't make it after all?!
