Saturday & Sundry Thoughts on Steven Mnuchin, another Trump pick

Stumped for a topic this weekend - I dunno, absent further unexpected eventualities it looks as though we are going to be stuck with Donald Trump as president, at least until he's impeached or whatever, so how about snooping at another of his cabinet picks, via natal chart?

Steven Mnuchin - from Wikipedia
Steven Terner Mnuchin (born December 21, 1962) is an American banker, film producer, and political fundraiser. He was a partner for Goldman Sachs for 17 years where he accrued a net worth estimated at about $40 million. He then founded the motion picture firm, RatPac-Dune Entertainment. In 2016, he served as finance chair in the successful Donald J. Trump presidential campaign.

On November 30, 2016, it was announced that Mnuchin would be nominated as Secretary of the Treasury in the coming administration of President-elect Donald Trump...........

He was born in New York City on 21 December 1962. Chart is set for 12 noon as his birth time isn't available.




I'm looking at the chart, trying to remain"cold", neutral, not relating it to anything I've read about its owner's past doings, ethics etc. other than that he's one of Donald Trump's recent picks for his administrative team, on the finance side.

Here's a second Trump pick with connection to the film industry, (Steve Bannon is another). In Mnuchin's natal chart Neptune (film) is conjunct Venus, planet of the arts.

 Donald Trump's  natal chart
His natal Sun in late Sagittarius is in harmonious trine to Mars in Leo. Mnuchin's Mars, by the way, is conjunct Donald Trump's natal Mars and ascendant. Trump's chart is at right, for reference. Mnuchin's natal Sun in late Sagittarius in within 7 degrees of Donald Trump's natal Sagittarius Moon - good links for a working relationship.

This is also another of Trump's picks with some Scorpio in his makeup - see also posts on Stephen Bannon and Jeff Sessions.

Mnuchin's natal Moon would have been either in late Libra or early Scorpio, depending on time of birth, so perhaps there's even an additional dose of Scorpio included.

He's all about finance and film really - film has been spotted in his chart, where's the finance?

Mercury in down to earth and business oriented Capricorn, with and Capricorn's ruler, Saturn, in Aquarius is the likely "ground zero" of his draw to a life in what has to be a risky choice, but highly profitable if clever enough: finance. Saturn (limitation, restriction) in its ancient sign of rulership Aquarius, and quirky Uranus in strict Virgo reflect a kind of dumbing down of Uranus' and Aquarius' natural tendency to be unexpected or eccentric: a strict planet in a looser sign and a looser planet in a strict sign....whether that helps to bring forth a financier type I don't know.

Jupiter conjunct Chiron in Pisces - quite gentle, but they sit opposite Uranus and Pluto in Virgo - it's almost another dumbing down - or probably a beefing up!

I wouldn't see this chart as classic for a finance guy, but then he's not yer classic finance guy - his film industry links give him the quirk often absent in classic finance guys.




Currently Mnuchin is engaged to Scottish actress Louise Linton, whose birthday is also 21 December though in 1981 - she's the lady in the photograph.
