Marat Safin

Of his ten planets, four sit in air signs, three in earth, two in water and a single one in fire. Air works out how a thing is put together and earth keeps at it; the element that would go at it on instinct is nearly absent, which is not what anybody would predict in a tennis player. The record says Safin won two major titles and later sat in the Russian parliament.

The Sun sits at seven degrees of Aquarius with Mercury further along the sign, and Mars, Jupiter and Saturn group across eighteen degrees of Virgo. Aquarius stands outside the arrangement it finds; Virgo inspects the detail. A player who won twice and then went into legislature has the detached sign running the identity and drive, scale and limit all gathered in the sign that corrects, which is a reasonable account of both trades.

Two T-squares run through this chart and both hold the Moon and Venus, one closing with Mars and the other with Jupiter, so private feeling and taste are braced twice over with no outlet either time. Venus sits directly opposite Mars at under nine tenths of a degree. Four of the ten were facing backwards when he was born. For a player, feeling held against drive in two separate figures is the configuration that makes a temperament the story.

Jupiter stood again on its Virgo birth degree on 20 September 2015, at thirty five. Virgo has no interest in scale, only in whether the work was right, and two circuits precede it. For a record of two titles rather than a long tally, whether the work was right is the harder question. One planet in fire, in the chart of somebody who hit a ball for a living, puts the force somewhere other than the temperament.
