Well said about knowing the person. It's like data is just a bunch of meaningless stuff until it's applied.

A chart is just a snapshot of a date and time until it's applied to a person (country, event, etc)

I remember the post and how I was torn between feeling bad for his childhood and wondering if maybe his mother looked into his baby eyes and saw the emptiness we see today. Terrifying thought.

I don't think there's a problem with "being mean to Mark" but there can be an issue of implying things about other regular humans who might share the same planetary aspects. To me, that's where it can get tricky and maybe call for a bit more balance when interpreting. Not that I care, I'm just flipping this on its side.

The most interesting thing to me is how people did not want to be publicly identified with their opinions about MZ. I doubt he cares...super wealthy and powerful people just don't care.

The analogy with interpreting a chart and an artist is a fitting one. Hans Holbein's portraits of Elizabethans are amazing. Forget about the Henry VIII painting, though that is revealing. Take a look at his portrait of Thomas Cromwell, Henry VIII's "fixer". If you don't know anything about Tudor history, see if you can come to some conclusions before you Wikipedia him.

Just for shits and giggles I'm going to have a gander at his chart (as unbiased as possible). Haaaa!

Also, I'm with you on your deft interpretation on his chart, for whatever that is worth.
