Astrological Charater Traits of Jesus?
Historians have long known that Jesus Christ must have been born between 1 and 4 BC.
At the top of the list of astrological meanings for Mercury is the word communication. And the planet that relates most strongly to spiritual matters is Neptune. The angular relationship between these two planets indicates to astrologers the ability to speak comfortably and persuasively about spiritual matters.
Astronomer, Dave Reneke’s research points to 17 June 2 BC as being the most likely date of the birth of Jesus, as the planets Venus and Jupiter were in the same location in the night sky and produced the effect of an unusually bright, slow-moving star.
While this is a plausible scientific explanation for the timing of the birth of Jesus, it is also a plausible astrological explanation.
The horoscope of Jesus would have to account for the ability of Jesus to speak on spiritual matters, exhibit healing abilities, indicate a strong capacity for compassion, and show that his spiritual message could reach the masses. It should also show the potential for harm that could come to him.
The sign of Cancer relates to care and nurturing, especially of children. The position of Mercury in Cancer suggests a person that could speak lovingly to children as well as reminding people of the importance to love children.
