Franklin Delanore Roosevelt:
FDR was born January 30, 1882, Hyde Park,
New York, U.S., and died on April 12, 1945, in
Warm Springs, Georgia. He was the 32nd
president of the United States (1933–45). The
only president elected to the office four times,
Roosevelt led the United States through two of
the greatest crises of the 20th century: the Great
Depression and World War II. In so doing, he
greatly expanded the powers of the federal
government through a series of programs and
69
2
reforms known as the New Deal, and he served as the principal architect of the successful effort
to rid the world of German National Socialism and Japanese militarism. (Reference

(There are currently 68 pages in my Magi Notebook, and the Alphabetical Index will direct
you to 726 Notes on various Magi teachings).
Although the analysis below is not by any means all‐inclusive, my intent is to bring forth a
few salient points in the life of FDR, while addressing some of the various concepts of Magi
Astrology. I hope that this will be of interest to the reader, while providing the students of
Magi Astrology an opportunity for study.
Geocentric Natal Chart: Longitudinal and Declinational Charts
Franklin D. Roosevelt’s Natal Gifts and Talents:
70
3
The bi‐directional applying Jupiter enhancement of Uranus,
also known as the Super Fame Aspect and Aspect of
Political Power, along with the applying Jupiter and Uranus
enhancements of Chiron, two Cinderella Aspects, certainly
yields much notoriety, power, and political acclaim in
support of being known for famous leadership in his chosen
political career. This powerful Chiron Planetary
Synchronization forms a Super Conjoined Trine, and
connects three super energies forming a powerful alignment
of Jupiter, Chiron, and Uranus. This Super Conjoined Trine
planetary synchronization is the primary Focus of the natal chart.
The joining of these energies suggests that Franklin D. Roosevelt
possessed a high degree of gifted talent with respect to a successful
political career, along with notable public acclaim as a leader in the political arena. The
Chiron Magical enhancement to Uranus also puts the emphasis on fame and success in
career, revealing gifts of charismatic political appeal. Clearly, FDR’s chart from birth
demonstrates that he was astrologically conditioned to be politically blessed.
Additionally, we see another planetary synchronization forming a Magi Triangle in
Franklin D. Roosevelt’s chart with Mercury, Mars, and Pluto all speaking to powerful and
energetic communications. Mars is additionally at EXDEK (extreme declination) in the
declinations. FDR’s talents and gifts additionally unfold in his energetic initiative and
powerful way with words, coupled with intellectual communication skills.
The applying bi‐directional Mercury‐Mars enhancement is creating High Balance Aspect
on the day of FDR’s birth. Although this particular planetary balance generally recognized
in superstar athletes, this type of planetary balance greatly enhanced FDR’s sharp wit,
intelligence, and astute communications, along with his ability for being well received.
FDR’s Natal Sun forms an applying aspect to Neptune and is relative to his creative and
healing presence, as well as his inner stability, while his applying Venus aspect to Saturn
shows his preference for maintaining control of his own financial prospects and affairs.
Venus square Saturn is the charts Focus Aspect.
FDR’s declinational Super Aspect of his Uranus applying enhancement of Pluto falls well
within the allowable one‐degree orb, and is truly a great and powerful aspect for a strong
political leader, suggesting both power and fame. He was innovative, and not afraid to use
his political power to initiate change of the status quo, thus destabilizing many popular
existing states of affairs. As an overall result of both his independent fervor and innovative
1
ideas, he became both the most loved and the most hated President in American history.
FDR’s declinational Neptune proximity enhancement to Chiron, Cinderella and Romance
Aspect, further supports his unprecedented long‐term political artistry and career charm,
1

and becomes the declinational Focus Aspect. Even Charles de Gaulle, who well knew
Roosevelt’s disdain for him, succumbed to the “glittering personality” as he put it, of “that artist, that
2
seducer”.
Looking further at the declinational chart for Focus, we see another planetary
synchronization forming a Magi Pyramid, with the alignment of Mercury contra‐parallel
both Neptune and Chiron, with Neptune and Chiron proximity enhanced forming the
declinational Focus Aspect and a lifetime Cinderella and Romance Aspect. This aspect is
further enhancing the prospects of both career and marriage, and further addressing his
creative communication gifts and talents with respect to his long‐term career and earning
power, along with his enduring charismatic public image.
Heliocentric Chart:
V
iewing Franklin D. Roosevelt’s gifts from the heliocentric angle of perspective, we
note the tight longitudinal Jupiter‐Pluto Super Success applying enhancement;
supporting the powerful and successful influential political leader. Additionally,
his Venus enhancement of Pluto adds to the line‐up of Super Aspects supporting that he
was natally conditioned to receive, as does his Venus enhancement of Jupiter. These
enhancements form a Super Magi Triangle and are relative to incredible benefic influences,
surrounding his power and leadership abilities, along with his luck, charm, and his sense of
humor in his ability to lead his political public. This is the Focus of the Heliocentric
longitudes.
Mercury square Mars is the proximity enhanced Heliocentric Focus Aspect, addressing his
high initiative in communications.
There are many more supporting enhancements to be seen from Franklin D. Roosevelt’s
heliocentric chart that are indeed in support of his geocentric chart, however, they are too
numerous to make mention of each and every one. Suffice it to say, that gifted and blessed he
certainly was. However, looking at just one more aspect worthy of mention, we see a
longitudinal Uranus and Neptune enhancement, again speaking to his long‐term political
fame.
Franklin D. Roosevelt certainly was natally well sanctioned with multiple gifts and talents,
and his gifted astrological portrait is highly evidenced by more than the above fore‐
mentioned ideal aspectual alignments. The heliocentric bi‐level enhancements of Jupiter,
Neptune, and Chiron alone are quite remarkable, as are the number of applying aspects that
the benefits for future positive progressions.
Super Aspects: In conclusion, the line‐up of Super Aspects is really quite remarkable. They
include a double Jupiter‐Uranus (in both geocentric longitude and heliocentric latitudes), Jupiter‐
Chiron conjunction in geocentric longitudes, and a declinational geocentric Uranus‐Pluto.
In the Heliocentric longitude chart we find a Jupiter‐Pluto, Venus‐Pluto, Venus‐Jupiter,
and in the heliocentric latitudes as mentioned above, a Jupiter‐Uranus enhancement.

Summer of 1921: Mysterious Illness afflicts FDR with Poliomyelitis:3
Although I will not go into any detail with respect to his paralysis, I have noticed in the
past that often Astrologer’s struggle to find the connections for any debilitating illness
afflicting FDR. I give the following applying natal aspects that have potential to be harmful
for progressions and transits. These, coupled with fraternal aspects, can certainly indicate
loss of power and reflexes through deterioration and/or muscle impairment.
• Geocentric Sun applying square Neptune: Duration of personal power and vitality
impaired.
• Geocentric Mercury applying square Pluto: Impairment of power of reflexes and sense of
balance.
• Geocentric Venus applying square Saturn and Helio Saturn applying parallel Venus: loss
of coordination in parts of the body.
• Heliocentric Earth/Moon Complex applying square Saturn: Unfortunate loss of power.
• Heliocentric Mercury square Mars within the Magical Time: Hindrances and blockages
to body movements, reflexes, and sense of balance.
Multiple Planet Aspects: Magi Quads and Midpoint Crossings:
The charts below show both the longitudinal and declinational Magi Quads and Midpoint
Crossings in Franklin D. Roosevelt’s chart.

Magi Quads:
Above in Franklin D. Roosevelt’s Magi Quad longitudinal line‐up and based on the
Occurring M/Q Magi Sequence, we find [Jupiter conjunct Neptune] + Chiron </L/>
Saturn + Pluto, at the top of the sequence, resulting in a Super Aspected Magi Quad. This is
indicative of talent in a successful and lasting career because of charismatic leadership, with
strong desires for monumental changes in government. His highly inspired creative
leadership skills, coupled with a powerful ability to successfully dominate the political
arena, resulted in a lucrative political career.
We also see a Magi Pyramid Quad (#17 ‐ longitudes) with the pairings of Mars + Uranus
</Pyramid/> Sun + Venus. This relates to his massive amounts of energy and ability to
bring about change, as being a reflection of his sociability
and public appeal.
There is additionally a Magi Quad Yod (#18 – longitudes)
Sun + Uranus </L/> Mars + Saturn, while Pluto graces the
midpoint of the Mars + Saturn pairing, creating a Magi
Quad Yod, speaking to his ability as a famous political
figure with the power to control war.
There are more configurations that are also worthy of
notice, but I will stop with the listings above.
Declinational Magi Quads: MDQ’s
74
7
First in the declinational Occurring M/Q Magi Sequence we find Jupiter + [Chiron
parallel Neptune] </D/> Mars + Uranus, resulting in an Aspected Magi Dek Quad. This is
relative to a distinguished and fearless successful public image coupled with charismatic
long‐term leadership, and enabled FDR to successfully direct his massive amounts of
energy and courage to significant and noteworthy future endeavors. Franklin Delano
Roosevelt, said Isiah Berlin, was one of the few statesmen in any century “who seemed to have no
fear at all of the future.” 4
Jupiter + Uranus </D/> Pluto + [Chiron parallel Neptune] follows next, resulting in an
Aspected MDQ, and indicating that FDR was politically talented at dealing with the public
and recognized for his achievements and enduring successes. This Magi Dek Quad brings
both power and charisma along with extraordinary qualities that total up to a very famous
public image.
The Primary Focal Planet for the longitudinal M/Q’s is Pluto.
The Primary Focal Planets for the MDQ’s are both Jupiter and Neptune.
The planetary energies of Pluto, Jupiter, and Neptune are perfect for describing FDR and
his talents and accomplishments. He was a long‐lasting, successful, powerful, political
figure, with exceptionally gifted personal attributes for outstanding leadership.
Midpoint Crossings: (MDX’s)
Below please find the charts and tables of the MDX’s relative to FDR’s chart. Again, I will
briefly demonstrate my understanding of MDX’s using just a few samples from the many
available in FDR’s chart.
First in the sequence, we see that the Sun is trine by both the Mars – Pluto, and Mercury /
Pluto midpoints, and both MDX’s form a semi‐sextile to Neptune. These are Aspected
MDX’s and show, first, that this type of supercharged energy, relative to power and politics
in the Mars – Pluto MDX, would bring FDR lasting and long‐term personal success
through his outgoing nature. The Sun is additionally parallel the Mars/Pluto MDX in the
declinations, and widely contra‐parallel Jupiter, as Jupiter is additionally parallel the Mars ‐
Pluto midpoint. We might call this as Aspected Bi‐level MDX Enhancement.
The second Aspected MDX, Mercury / Pluto midpoint trine Sun semi‐sextile Neptune
indicates that his commanding speech and powerful political skills are a vital part of his
political gifts, and support his abilities long‐term as a creative individual who can both
command and receive attention.
Further down in the sequence of MDX’s, we note in FDR’s MDX lineup an Aspected
MDX of Saturn – Pluto (#33). The Saturn – Pluto midpoint is both conjunct Jupiter and
trine Uranus. Through aspect transformation, we can safely conclude that his elevated desires
for enforced political change were best realized through his political fame and skills in
leadership.

elow please find the Marriage Chart of FDR and Eleanor, in addition to the Magi
Quad Timed Sequence relative to my analysis of the most exact Magi Quads. Also,
please see the separate charts with the inclusion of Juno.
With respect to the Marriage Chart, there are many factors that need to be synthesized and
balanced for overall integration, as far as what the Marriage itself brought to both of them
publicly and personally. What first catches our attention is the Dynamic Symmetrical
Turbulent Planetary Geometry in the form of a T‐Square involving Uranus and Neptune,
with Mercury at the apex. This pattern sets up immediate conditions for stress within the
marriage. They had trying communications about freedoms within the marital union,
versus long‐term commitment. The negatized symbolisms (or offsets) to these planetary
representations in this symmetrical pattern, reveal an inability to successfully communicate
with one another for a long‐term about personal commitments, resulting in an
unchangeable need for satisfying ill fated urges for bouts of independence and freedom,
further suggesting instability with respect to both commitment, and truthful
communications. The union may have been unsettling in many respects, lacking
contentment.
It is no secret that FDR had a long‐term love affair with his wife’s secretary, Lucy Mercer,
so this planetary geometry speaks clearly to a need for freedom, along with years of
untruthful communications, right from the onset. Absent were Venus – Jupiter
enhancements to remotely hint at, or suggest loyalty and faithfulness, and no apparent
counter‐balancing aspects are seen to offset the negativity of this symmetrical pattern.
However, the tight Neptune/Chiron Double Direct Quincunx and Cinderella Aspect is
additionally a Double Cinderella Aspect – as it is also present in the declinations of FDR’s
natal chart and therefore excellent for both their Marriage Chart and Franklin’s career, as it
addresses the Union of Marriage itself along with the success the marriage brought to his
career. This configuration therefore overwhelmingly supports and stabilizes the capacity for
holding the marriage together for the long term ‐ regardless of the difficulties in the
marriage ‐ while promoting unprecedented career longevity in the political arena and
enhancing his political public image for years.
Jupiter applying trine Uranus creates a Magical Angle, gives positive progressions and is
additionally a mirrored natal aspect – is a Super Fame and an Historic Aspect, addressing
the super fame and tremendous leadership that resulted from this union, in addition to the
successful global changes that result from the combined creative geniuses that this union
creates. Recognized as an historical couple, the marriage certainly enhanced his career; this
couple was one for the books.
Jupiter applying square Chiron results in romantic marital
tensions and implies a lack of future trust and fulfillment
in the union.
Additionally, the Sun – Mars enhancement can indicate the
natalization of a union that is empowered with high energy
and initiative, and therefore suggesting that the Wedding
Chart enforced their combined drives and passions as a
77
10
couple, introducing action as opposed to indecision in their union – perhaps energized
with a bit of martian tension and irritation at times. Overall, they could accomplish much
together.
In the declinations, we have Saturn applying parallel Chiron, the Heartbreak Clash, and
Eleanor certainly did have her heart broken upon finding the love letters addressed to her
husband, from her secretary. Although FDR did not want a divorce 6 when she offered that
up as a solution, and he promised to end the relationship with Lucy Mercer when his wife,
Eleanor, found out, the words were just words. He could not end the affair, as the
irresistible temptation continued to carry on into the future. This betrayal resulted in
Eleanor focusing on her own personal and public interests and prospects, and ended any
intimacy 7 that was left in the marriage. 8
Lastly, we have Sun applying contra‐parallel Mercury, suggesting that the marriage
provided terrific success in intellectual endeavors and common pursuits, resulting in an
intellectually compatible union.
Please find relevant charts below.

Juno:
Although not
much
has
been written
about Juno as
of yet, it has
been revealed
by the Magi
Society to be
representativ
e
of
a
mistress…So I
thought
it
both relevant
and
interesting to
include Juno
in
this
particular chart.
In FDR’s personal chart, we have the planetary synchronization of Saturn trine Juno, and
Juno applying semi‐sextile to Venus. Using Saturn ‐ Juno as the nucleus of the
synchronization, and Juno as the central focus by virtue of being connected to both Saturn
and Venus, I would read this planetary geometry as an irresistible temptation and an
uncontrollable desire for extra‐curricular involvement with a mistress. In FDR’s natal
chart, Mercury is applying contra‐parallel Juno, supporting communications with mistress.
In FDR’s Marriage Chart, in the declinations we see that Juno is also involved in a
planetary synchronization with Sun and Mercury, with Sun at the apex, therefore I
translate this as ‐ the Union of Marriage would include correspondence with a mistress,
supported by the confluence of declinational Mercury – Juno in his natal Geocentric chart.

Magi Quad Time Sequence
The Magi Quad Timed Sequence (above the declinational MQ sequence) will show the
most exact Magi Quads and what type of successes the Marriage Chart may have brought
to the individual. The longitudinal Timed Magi Sequence will illustrate the more precise
nature of Roosevelt’s success based on the timed MQ astrological influences.
In order of exactness for reference, please see that the longitudinal MQ’s follow in the order
of # 11, 10, 12, and 13.
11. Jupiter + Saturn <//> Sun + Mercury: Here we have a Magi Quad suggesting exceptional
leadership qualities of grace and dignity fully supporting his natural and powerful
communication skills.
10. Neptune + Chiron <//> Mercury + Venus: Inspired and long lasting career because of
articulated intelligence and enhanced communication skills.
12. Venus + Mars <//> Saturn + Chiron: Grace of action and love of movement results in
strong abilities resulting in charismatic career.
13. Saturn + Uranus <//> Mercury + Mars: His charismatic and commanding ability to
move the country through quickness of action and a lightening fast mind.
What we cannot help but notice is the Saturn pairing predominance in the M/Q’s, coupled
with a high degree of Mercury pairings. The Saturn – Uranus pairing is quite common in
82
15
the political arena. Saturn additionally signifies that FDR relished being in control – in
fact succeeding at three unprecedented consecutive terms in the highest office in the
country. Mercury brings about a high degree of intelligence and versatility to his speech.
