Fire has four of his ten planets, with two apiece in earth, air and water, so nothing else here is scarce. Fire moves and expects to be watched. Paul plays basketball, and the record names him a guard and a long serving president of the players' union.

The Sun sits at sixteen degrees of Taurus and the Moon answers from Sagittarius at twelve. Taurus holds what it has accumulated and will tolerate a situation long past the point of usefulness, because leaving is the more disruptive move; Sagittarius needs room and becomes noticeably difficult without it. Mercury and Venus sit together in Aries behind the Sun. For somebody the record credits with years in a union office as well as a playing career, a Sun that stays put and a Moon that needs air is the division that matters.

The Sun sits square Jupiter at four tenths of a degree, belief in its own scale meeting a limit, and lies at an awkward angle to Uranus at just over a degree. Two of the six closest contacts here are between the slow planets and belong to a whole generation rather than to him: Neptune sixty degrees from Pluto at a third, and Uranus in mild friction with Pluto at four fifths. Venus sits sixty degrees from Mars at a degree and a third, an opening between wanting a thing and going after it. The whole slow half of the chart, Saturn out to Pluto, faced backwards.

Jupiter closed a full circuit on its Aquarius birth degree on 24 February 2021, at thirty five, and two laps precede it. Aquarius takes its reading from whatever did not follow the pattern, which for a player who spent those years representing other players as well as himself is the question worth putting. Identity squared by scale at four tenths of a degree is the contact to keep from this chart, because the belief and the limit arrive together rather than in turn. With four planets in fire and a Taurus Sun holding them, nothing in this chart moves until he has decided that it does.
