Happy Birthday Dalai Lama

Born on July 6, 1935, the 14th Dalai Lama has Sun and ascendant in Cancer, the sign of home and family. He has Moon conjunct Neptune in Virgo. The Moon represents family, Virgo rules service, and Neptune is about sacrifice, compassion and spirituality.

Currently, transiting Saturn in Virgo is conjunct the Moon-Neptune aspect in his chart, pressuring him to take a stronger stand in the conflict with China. Since this is taking place in his third house of communications, talks may be frustrating. But Saturn also rules accomplishment, so there is some hope of creating a firmer foundation from which to negotiate Tibet's freedom.

Saturn in Pisces points to his destiny as a spiritual role model, especially since Saturn is in the 9th house of religion. Strengthening his faith and empathy with others is a grand water-trine involving Sun in Cancer, Jupiter in Scorpio and Saturn in Pisces. This highlights his ability to endear himself and his cause to so many people around the world.
