Horoscope of James Randi

By Peter Chavell

When we examine the horoscopes of people who pride themselves on being practical, pragmatic and realistic, we usually find the influence of Earth signs to be significant, as is the case with James Randi. These traits are well represented by the sign Virgo and it is interesting to see that his birth sign is Virgo. In addition, his moon is in Capricorn; another Earth sign.

Aggression and warlike attributes are reflected in a horoscope through fire signs and planets in conflict. Again we find a very good representation of these dynamics in James Randi's horoscope. He is a man with a mission and is in some ways reminiscent of a Marine fulfilling his mission.

The combination of fire and earth in his horoscope make him a tough, redoubtable fighter. A run-in with James Randi, astrologically speaking, is akin to running into a tank; very tough with the capacity to do explosive harm - especially to misguided, or misguiding, people.

His reputation as a skeptic is well-deserved astrologically as Saturn, the planet of skepticism, plays a significant role in his horoscope. Saturn, in fact, ties in very strongly with the fire and conflict elements of his horoscope.

A key focal point of his horoscope is his interest in what people believe. In fact the more James Randi focuses on this issue the more acclaim he will get. The beliefs, that the masses accept, that are dangerous, delusional and socially harmful, tend to be the beliefs that he actively challenges. Astrologically speaking, his need to reform the way people think could easily border on a crusade.

Not unsurprisingly perhaps his horoscope reveals considerable technical competence, which could be very useful for creating magical tricks as well as unpicking the technical components of other people's tricks. In fact he has aptitudes that would qualify astrologically for working in the fields of; aeronautics, surgery and prosthetics, engineering and even astrology.
