Breezy De Villepin born in Grand Air Trine
Astrologically speaking, Chirac made a good move, as he appointed a man to the top job who will now see Jupiter as of October run through four of his natal Scorpio positions, giving this man a lot of clout until 2007.
De Villepin (file says 11.14.1953) is born with moon in Aquarius, he is open to the friends and public. Sun is conjunct an investigative retro Mercury in Scorpio. Venus he has in same spot as Chirac in early 4 Scorpio, they do like and dislike the same things. A strong bond exists between the two, Chirac and de Villepin, whose Mars in an indecisive position at 8 Libra, however massively boosted now by stationary Jupiter, as he gets the big promotion. Hey do what LipstickMystic said in her Jupiter article, and take a short break before frying out on this new job. His Node is late Capricorn, he came here to lead a big operation and see it through.
Jupiter he has retro in 25 Gemini, in double trine to his Aquarius moon and Neptune in 25 Libra under Spica, this should do well. He speaks a zillion languages, that makes sense and makes his life easier. And Saturn, oh well, he has conjunct his Scorpio birth Venus. That could be a tad serious, self-sacrificing, and controlling, but he will need this Saturn now soon. Pluto in Leo, his ruler, he has in good midpoint between Jupiter and Neptune, this should work pretty well. Retro Uranus in Cancer trines his sun-Mercury tandem in Scorpio, hence this ecclectic and surprising quality in him. But these retro planets at birth show a man who prefers working from the back ground, and now he is on the hot seat.
French blogs say he drives people nuts around him and that there is always a feeling of high intensity, drama, emergency, urgency and stress around him. However, since he was stationed for a short year at the Interior ministry where his talks were mainly with "simple" people, such as cops and police guys to revamp the French security, he calmed down a bit. Now he is back in the stress zone and true to himself he gave himself 100 days like Napoleon, when really he has 22 months. Some love stress, and some like it easy...
De Villepin, take a read in Nemesis book The Power In Thank You, and take it easy, France will still be there when you leave, and not worse for the experience... wishing a prosperous French neighbour land and good luck to the new French PM!
Peace
M StC.
