Richard John Santorum (Rick), born May 10th, 1958 in Winchester, Virginia was a lawyer before becoming the Representative for Pittsburgh in 1991 and Senator for Pennsylvania in 1995. He lost his seat in 2006 and returned to law, public policy and the media. He is a conservative, opposed to same sex marriage. He supports partial privatization of Social Security and mixes religion and politics.
He is a Taurus, fixed sign which compensates for a slight lack of earth element (practicality); so he is stubborn enough very concerned with material possessions. His Mercury, being in the 12th House of subconscious, dreams helps him in his visualizations to write, publish and pushes him into action. This is reinforced by his Ascendant in his second House of money in Gemini, able to hold two jobs in the same time, sense of duality, does communicate extremely well. Sun in his first house: his goal is to establish financial security and build his own self- esteem. Research for identity, a lot of enthusiasm and emotional intensity.
Third House Cancer,very family oriented (he has 7 children). His 4th House in Leo with two intense planets, Uranus and Pluto gives him a strong possibility to be constructively uprooted and to become a powerful personality, continuous research of essential values. He is very magnetic, original, loves surprises, cannot tolerate restrictions, very powerful at home, lack of critical thinking. Moon in Aquarius in his 10th House of career: attracted by the extraordinary, but restrained by his religious traditions. Pluto, the planet of transformation is in Capricorn for a long time and will force him to open up to different philosophies. He has a strong desire to compete, changes will be public and stir controversy due to his capacity to put into operation large social plans.
And now the Dragons: His Natal Dragon is Scorpio Head (supreme power, wealth)/Taurus Tail
(not lucky to build financial security for himself). The lesson here is to become more spiritual.
Up to August 2012 the Universal Dragon being Sagittarius Head in his 8th House of death and rebirth allows him to overcome the stress caused by the Universal Dragon Tail in Gemini in his second House of money; so we can say he is now in a phase of restructure of his personal finances and self-esteem, drive to reach for better solutions; danger of transportation. The new Dragon in August (Scorpio/Taurus) will fall on himself and on his 7th house of contract and partnership stimulating a new surge of ideas leading to financial activity, indeed a very prosperous year with option to relocate and reach a much bigger world. The tail also in Taurus means this is a karmic life, difficulty to regenerate. The hidden Dragon being Libra Head - he has diplomatic gifts but impatient and accident prone to the head. Religion plays too much a big part in his life due to his fear of expanding his mind -/Aries Tail - not enough confidence, could suffer setbacks. Rick Santorum could easily become the next Republican nominee.
