Napoleon’s Ascendant is in Scorpio. During Napoleon’s time, the ruler of Scorpio was Mars. Now it is Pluto and sort of still Mars. I’m going to talk about Pluto as if it still applies to Napoleon. Though I don’t understand how this works, still I can differentiate the fiery violent energetic feel of Mars versus the watery deep transformative feel of Pluto.

My chart has the Ascendant in Taurus, Descendant in Scorpio. Napoleon’s is the exact opposite, Ascendant in Scorpio, Descendant in Taurus. We also both have T squares in the same spot involving Uranus (quirky visionary energy) in the same house (daily work) Both our T squares involve extremely importantly placed Jupiters. His is on the Ascendant. Mine is on the top of the chart in the 10th house of career and fame.
We both have a sextile triangle in the same houses. I have seen this configuration called something else - “partial grand sextile”. I’ll show you the shape I’m writing about.

In the Napoleon Memoirs, we frequently hear of Napoleon’s lucky star. I have to imagine that this refers to luck in Napoleon’s natal chart. Jupiter on the Ascendant may be that lucky star. Napoleon really was only lucky while he was married to Josephine. This is a huge plot in the Napoleon saga. What’s with that?
Napoleon’s Jupiter is just inside the 12th house.

The above mentions strange clothes. Napoleon wore the uniform of a soldier below his rank for some highly eccentric reason and he didn’t feel comfortable dressing like everyone else.
It is also worth mentioning that Napoleon was a disciplined workaholic who was pining for his highly eccentric Stepdaughter who was usually resisting his control.
Relating to this situation, this Stepdaughter was an artist in his home. Napoleon has Venus (art, love) in Cancer (home) trine his Ascendant in the 8th house (spirit).
The Ascendant is sextile Mars. Remember that the Ascendant in Scorpio is ruled by Pluto and Mars. This is connoting a lucky (Jupiter) warrior/transformative energy. Let’s look at Ascendant sextile Mars.
The Ascendant is sextile Neptune.
In Hortense’s Memoirs, she basically says that Napoleon could read people’s minds which sounds like it would relate to this aspect.

Not only is the Ascendant in Scorpio sextile Mars in Napoleon’s 10th house of career (a famous warrior), but that Ascendant is also sextile Pluto. Pluto in Capricorn is the chart ruler. We haven’t had Pluto in Capricorn since around when Napoleon was born. We have Pluto in Capricorn now conjunct Saturn. If Astrology is real, this is huge. It screams major societal transformation.

The description above in total is highly Napoleon, I believe, for anyone with even a superficial knowledge of this man’s true character.
