| True to his Aquarian Sun, Douglas Rushkoff concerns himself with the problems of humanity and offers simple and viable solutions or alternatives. Personally, he is friendly, intelligent, independant, unique, truthful, and freedom-loving. Negatively he can be cool, stubborn, and distant. Pisces rising gives a sensitive and emotional overlay or facade to the ego and Mercury conjunct the Ascendant gives physical slimness and a nervous or restless, and communicative disposition or temperament. Midheaven in Sagittarius likes to travel and deals with cultural, moral, or spiritual issues which they often later write or publish about. The ruler Jupiter is in Capricorn so that these writings will concern the moral conduct of buisiness and government. Moon in Aries also makes Doug active, restless, and enthusiastic, and often impatient as well. This Moon is good at promoting and pushing through one's interests and the conjunction from Venus ensures success and endurance. Mercury in Pisces softens or warms the otherwise cool or detached Aquarian nature making these natives more sensitive, understanding, and compassionate. They are also notably musical, visual, artistic, and may even show psychic ability. Film and the media arts are good fields for them. Venus in Aries likes challenge and activity and fearlessly pursues its love interests. They can be selfish and aggressive but not in a pre-meditated way. They are good with metal, fire, tools, and vehicles of all kinds. Mars in Cancer goes through sharp mood swings or emotions often involving home or family situations. They are very active domestically and can make impressive cooks, parents, providers, and safety and security experts. They also like to paint, collect, preserve, restore, and make full use of their colorful and fertile imagination. Jupiter in Capricorn is very organized and ambitious and studies all about business, politics, industry, and commerce. Their publishings on these subjects appeal to an international audience. Personally, Jupiter n Capricorn types are shy, and reserved and dislike waste or disorder. They can survive or get by on very little. Jupiter with Saturn is good for busiess as they know just when to expand or hold back. Saturn in its own sign of Capricorn gives much control or discplinary power as well as excellent organizing or managing skills. They are serious, capable, realistic, and responsible people who can wield much power and authority. Uranus, the solar ruler, is in Leo giving Doug an ingeniously creative and dramatic side both personally and professionally. They also like to think of themselves as humanitarian heroes, believe in free love and affection, and treat all children as friends. Neptune in Scorpio is a generationn of subtle, secretive, intense, and emotional souls or psyches that are powerfully drawn to all forms of hidden or occult study and activity. They also have rich and vivid sexual imaginations. Pluto in Virgo people leave no stone unturned when it comes to issues of work, health, technology, and the environment. They are intensely critical and analytical and seek ultimate purity and perfection in all they do. | |
