Clarisse's analysis
George W. Bush was the 43rd President of the United States, from 2001 to 2009, after serving as governor of Texas. The son of the 41st president, George H. W. Bush, he led the country through the September 11, 2001 attacks. His birth time comes from his birth certificate, so we can read the houses.
Sun and Saturn in Cancer in the 12th house: family legacy
His Sun is in Cancer, the sign of family, with Saturn. Bush is heir to a political dynasty: his father was president, his brother Jeb governor of Florida. Saturn in the 12th house is the weight of a legacy and responsibilities carried through times of crisis.
Leo rising with Mercury, Venus and Pluto: an affable presence
Leo rising, with three planets in the 1st house, gives a warm presence and a direct style, often described as easygoing.
Moon, Jupiter and Neptune in Libra in the 3rd house: the need to connect
His Moon is in Libra, with Jupiter and Neptune. A need for harmony and friendly relationships, including with political opponents after his presidency.
Mars in Virgo in the 2nd house: pragmatism
Mars in Virgo is concrete, practical energy. In retirement, he took up painting, notably portraits of military veterans.
An astrological detail
Bush and Donald Trump were born less than a month apart, in 1946, and both have Leo rising.
The bottom line
A Cancer heir, a Leo presence and a Libra Moon that seeks connection.
