The birth of Wikileaks.org which is a web site can be traced to the registration of the web site. The nameserver lookup, ‘Who is’, shows the ‘Creation date’ as: 2006-10-04 05:54:19 and that the registrant is John Shipton c/o Dynadot Privacy, Address 1: PO Box 701, City: San Mateo State: CA Zip: 94401. I was alerted to this web site registration date by a post on Eric Francis’ web site Planet Waves. So credit must go to Eric for a nice piece of research.

From these precise details we have an exact horoscope showing an accurate rising sign and lunar position. In cases where the rising degree is so late in the sign there is usually some doubt as to the horoscope’s accuracy. In this case there is no doubt.
While there is not the space here for a full analysis of the Wikileaks horoscope some brief comments can be made. Students who first seek to learn the history and beliefs behind astrology will often encounter sun-sign descriptions which focus upon the Sun’s sign and the rising sign. In my Horary Astrology and Astrology Foundation Studies Courses I stress the importance of looking at the condition of the Ascendant ruler and planets which conjoin the 4 power points, which are called ‘the angles’.
Rising sign
Because the rising sign is Gemini we go directly to the condition of its ruler, Mercury. Mercury is the natural ruler of communication and is placed in the secretive and emotional sign of Scorpio. Wikileaks is well known for communicating secret documents.
The Moon and its translation of light
The Moon in this horoscope is in Pisces in the 9th house, applying by trine to Mercury. The Moon translates the light of Mercury to Uranus, the planet of shock, reform and revolution. The 9th house is associated with truth and higher knowledge. Many of Wikileaks supporters would support the idea that Wikileaks is concerned with revealing the truth.
Uranus is associated with revolution and its ability to shock
The translation of the Moon’s light from Mercury to Uranus describes the main action in this chart. Uranus itself is conjunct the Midheaven, which gives it power and prominence. Uranus is associated with revolution and its ability to shock, as well as modern technology. Some astrologers associate with the internet. It is interesting that the founder of Wikileaks, Julian Assange, has a tight aspect between his natal Sun and Uranus.
Underhand methods, stealth and subtlety
The trine aspect between Mars and Neptune reflects its modus operandi – underhand methods, stealth and subtlety. Mars in Libra is in its detriment and in traditional astrology is viewed as weak and malefic. In my astrology courses online I stress the importance of dignity and reception when interpreting the meaning of planets and aspects be planets.
The Sun and the Wikileaks web site
The Sun rules the third house of communication because Leo is the zodiac sign on the cusp of the third house. Those who take astrology lessons and learn astrology in the traditional format will learn that web sites are ruled by the third house. The Sun is in its detriment in the sign of Libra. Its debilitated state does suggest that its web site functioning is problematic. However the Sun is ruled by a dignified Venus in Libra, providing it with some support in the role of broadcasting information through it web site.
Pluto and open enemies
The other planet which conjoins one of the four power points is Pluto, the planet which is associated with toxic material that is hidden. It is also associated with hidden power and its abuse, intrigue, betrayal and transformation. To learn astrology and understand its basic principles I believe it is vital to first learn the meaning of the seven traditional planets and their function in the horoscope. However it is difficult to ignore one of the modern outer planets when it is placed on a power point.
Pluto conjoins the seventh house cusp. The seventh house rules one’s spouse and open enemies. It is clear that Wikileaks open enemies are the US and other governments whose interests are threatened are the open enemies of Wikileaks. Their hidden and covert power is legendary. There have been calls from prominent people in the US to assassinate its founder Julian Assange. US authorities have forced Wikileaks to go offline. The power of Pluto as represented in this horoscope is self-evident.
The December 21 2010 total lunar eclipse
It is interesting that the December 21 2010 total lunar eclipse falls directly on the Ascendant of this horoscope. Many astrologers take the view that the power of an eclipse begins a month before its actual date. If this is true then we are seeing the effects of this lunar eclipse already in operation.
