Home > Weird and Wonderful > US Presidents US Presidents (Updated 1/20/09) Zodiac Sun Signs Barack Obama - Leo - became the 44th President of the United States on 1/20/09. Including Barack Obama, there have thus far been a total of 43 different individuals that have served in the office of President of the United States of America (USA). (Grover Cleveland served two non-consecutive terms and is counted chronologically as both the 22nd and the 24th president.) It appears that when it comes to Zodiacal Sun Sign qualities in their presidents, citizens of the USA have tended to somewhat favor the Zodiac Sun Signs of Scorpio and Aquarius; each with 5. Least favorite are the Zodiac Sun signs of Aries, Gemini, and Virgo; each with only 2. Most Memorable (in a good way) USA Presidents: George Washington - Sun in Pisces Abraham Lincoln - Sun in Aquarius Teddy Roosevelt - Sun in Scorpio Franklin D Roosevelt - Sun in Aquarius John F Kennedy - Sun in Gemini USA President Zodiac Sun Signs: Aries - 2 Taurus - 4 Gemini - 2 Cancer - 4 Leo - 4 Virgo - 2 Libra - 4 Scorpio - 5 Sagittarius - 3 Capricorn - 4 Aquarius - 5 Pisces - 4 Element of Sun Sign: Fire - 9 Earth - 10 Air - 11 Water - 13 Mode of Sun Sign: Cardinal (Active) - 14 Fixed (Steadfast) - 18 Mutable (Flexible) - 11 US Presidents - Their Sun Sign George Washington - Pisces John Adams - Scorpio Thomas Jefferson - Aries James Madison - Pisces James Monroe - Taurus John Quincy Adams - Cancer Andrew Jackson - Pisces Martin Van Buren - Sagittarius William Henry Harrison - Aquarius John Tyler - Aries James K Polk - Scorpio Zachary Taylor - Sagittarius Millard Fillmore - Capricorn Franklin Pierce - Sagittarius James Buchanan - Taurus Abraham Lincoln - Aquarius Andrew Johnson - Capricorn Ulysses S Grant - Taurus Rutherford B Hayes - Libra James A Garfield - Scorpio Chester A Arthur - Libra Grover Cleveland - Pisces Benjamin Harrison - Leo William McKinley - Aquarius Theodore Roosevelt - Scorpio William Howard Taft - Virgo Woodrow Wilson - Capricorn Warren G Harding - Scorpio Calvin Coolidge - Cancer Herbert Hoover - Leo Franklin D Roosevelt - Aquarius Harry S Truman - Taurus Dwight D Eisenhower - Libra John F Kennedy - Gemini Lyndon B Johnson - Virgo Richard M Nixon - Capricorn Gerald R Ford - Cancer Jimmy Carter - Libra Ronald Reagan - Aquarius George Bush - Gemini Bill Clinton - Leo George W Bush - Cancer Barack Obama - Leo Midheavens Comparing the Zodiac Sun Signs of the 43 USA presidents is interesting (and how many would have guessed Scorpio is tied with Aquarius for first place), but the comparison of the USA presidents' Midheaven Signs proves to be much more striking. Of the 43 USA presidents, there are unfortunately only 25 where we can be reasonably certain we have the accurate time of birth necessary for the calculation of the Midheaven. Of those 25, 28% (7) have (had) their Midheaven located in the Zodiac sign of Cancer. For those unaware, the USA's birth Sun is located in the sign of Cancer. Those seven USA Presidents include Chester A. Arthur, William McKinley, Woodrow Wilson, Harry S. Truman, John F. Kennedy, Jimmy Carter, and Bill Clinton. << back to Weird and Wonderful
