I find it fascinating to look into a public figure’s astrology,I seem to do quite a lot of these obituary readings.
Chavez rule was characterized as being extreme. He was popularly voted for and was no dictator, most Venezuelan’s lives benefitted greatly from Chavez’s rule. What’s the problem with that? He is hated just because he socialized and nationalized his own countries resources? We should do that in Canada.
He is loved and hated in equal measure. Not bowing down to U.S. supremacy, Chavez was a leftist socialist pragmatic idealist, with strong ties to Cuba, and Bolivia, he accomplished a Herculean task for the ordinary Venezuelan citizen in his 13 years at leader.
When elected in 1999 he called a public referendum with indigenous tribal groups to rewrite the Nation’s constitution.Something pretty unheard of in the world.
The country was renamed the Bolivarian Republic of Venezuela, in honor of Simon Bolivar.
At the beginning of 2000 Venezuela was the 5th largest Oil producing country in the world. since Chavez took office the state nationalized more than 50% of the oil companies in Venezuela.
He criticized the U.S. policy on Terrorism. After 9/11 Chávez showed pictures of Afghan children killed in a bomb attack on his own local television show. He commented that “They are not to blame for the terrorism of Osama Bin Laden or anyone else”, and called on the American government to end “the massacre of the innocents. Terrorism cannot be fought with terrorism.” These remarks were widely publicized and made him into a popular American enemy. He was only telling the truth.
Chavez did not ruin the Venezuelan economy. He was not a dictator. That is lies spread by American media who want Venezuela’s oil rights back. He was a total populist leader who instituted fraud proof modern voting.
IN 2002 there were mass rallies against his regime. In spite of shutting down tv stations that opposed him and cozying up to certain despots, Chavez tempered down his policies in response.
Despite these criticisms, . Under the Chávez presidency, rates of poverty in Venezuela were slashed; education, public infrastructure and health services were dramatically improved; the economy improved and unemployment declined rapidly. Infant mortality rate declined. 22 state universities were built. The GNI went from $3,763 in 1999 and by 2011 it had risen to $11,820. a three-fold growth per-capita wealth in the space of 12 years is amazing. No country on earth has ever amassed a better life for her people in such a short period.
WHO WAS HUGO CHAVEZ? 
I don’t have an exact birth time but use Noon for a public figure. Chavez was born in a small town to a working class family.
we can see the REVOLUTIONARY LEADER Signature in his natal chart.
A LEO with URANUS in Cancer conjunct the SUN –
CHIRON the wounded healer is in CAPRICORN -opposite URANUS
seeing how the plutocracy hurts the ordinary person and the problems in corporate structure
which Squares NEPTUNE in LIBRA in the 12th-
Neptune rules OIL, so Chavez big mandate was to keep private, privatize his countries resources- 12th house.
He was a spiritual political idealist, who operated from compassion
This perfectly describes CHAVEZ’S revolutionary politics.
HOME, protection, nurturing the people was a huge part of who Chavez was.
With 4 planets in CANCER- JUPITER, MERCURY, THE MOON, URANUS in conjunction
Jupiter is exalted in Cancer- which BTW will be prominent in a HUGE GRAND WATER TRINE in July of this year.
Cancer is water and the home and nurturing,shelter, sustaining, mothering of his people
Chavez clearly had his heart in the right place for the people
with those Cancer planets in the 9th house of the military, philosophy, truth, higher education, legal reforms, honesty,aiming higher
this also perfectly describes who Chavez was,
With SATURN in SCORPIO
the sign of revolution rebirth, death, power, secrets, control, obsession, deep psychological understanding
right on the Ascendant for this chart – the people saw him as fearless, powerful, FATHER, leader, ruler, architect
Saturn is KARMA, time, corporate structure, the architect, destiny,history, ancestry, breakdown of old structures
Chavez will hold always a very prominent role in his country’s history, renaming the country to honor the ancestor’s
SATURN SQUARE his SUN in LEO
I really feel Chavez was a man of destiny,to revolutionize his country and ally with other South American countries
whoa re breaking free of ancient colonial suppression.
MARS in SAGITTARIUS on the GALACTIC CENTER
Born with MARS RETROGRADE on the GALACTIC CENTER
he belived in Sagittarius higher education and opened 22 free universities in 13 years. There is virtually no illiteracy in Venezuela now.
Chavez was a true visionary, aligning with the highest truth,this describes a Metaphysical philosophical political warrior
VENUS in VIRGO
loves discipline, hard work, a perfectionist, organizing, analytical, intellectual,VEnus in Virgo is very land oriented, and always gets the job done
NORTH NODE IN CAPRICORN
OPPOSITE JUPITER and MERCURY
Indicated Chavez destiny was to nurture and initiate new roots, a new political foundation, he was meant to be a leader. AN excellent speaker, his people felt both held by his love for them as well as his ability to be a strong lead.
LILLITH CONJUNCT HIS SATURN in SCORPIO
INteresting this. LILLLITH the archetype of the 1st woman, NATURE HERSELF, untamable, her power resists any and all patriarchal attempts to restrict oppose or diminish her energy. CHAVEZ was feared and hated because he carried this energy. He was totally aligned with his own vision, his own sense of what needed to die in order to build new forms. HE had amazing passion and depth. He was unstoppable in his goals.
MANy transits were affecting Chavez at his DEATH
On March 5th although it is disputed whether he actually died on this day or previously, the news was made public that day.
PLUTO, Lord of DEATH, conjunct his NORTH NODE.opposite his SOUTH NODE
your work is done on earth, you have completed your tasks, going HOME>
Pluto opposite Jupiter in Cancer- riches, inner wealth, going home.
PLUTO Square CERES- in LIBRA in the 12th
Chavez knew his time was up, there was a lot of secret meetings before he passed
to ensure his policies would remain. Although the country will be thrown into some chaos.
SATURN RETROGRADE, At his SECOND SATURN RETURN
has square his Leo sun – SATURN in Scorpio is death, transformation
ALL the 6 PISCES PLANETS – Trine his 4 CANCER PLANETS and oppose his VENus in VIRGO
a sense of returning to Oceanic consciousness going back to bliss
MARS is SQUARE to his NATAL MARS
there may indeed be some foul play, secret aggression connected to his death
the future of VENEZUELA?
Jupiter will enter Cancer in July
the people will want to keep Chavez’s policies in place
and URANUS PLUTO will be aligned in their ongoing square which will affect Venezuela
I will look at the date of Venezuela’s new state in another article
as well as CUBA which had depended on VEnezuela’s oil supplies
