AstroDatabank Newsmaker: Bobby Fischer

Brilliant. Genius. Prodigy. These are words that have been used to describe Bobby Fischer. The great success story in the world of chess suffered from phobias and paranoia, could be temperamental and hateful, and ended his life in exile. He died this past month, leaving us wondering what astrological factors in his chart might indicate such a stormy life. We offer you his chart and biography for this week's study.

What Do You Think?

1. Those who analyze chess players' success have noted that Fischer's great wins were often a combination of using older, forgotten strategies with new vigor. He practiced constantly and isolated himself from most people and the world around him. What astrological factors might describe his brand of genius, with its complete concentration, strategic thinking and will to win? What in the chart shows his penchant for isolating himself from the rest of the world?
2. Where in Fischer's chart is the fiercely competitive, argumentative, demanding, willful and often hateful person? Are there signs in the chart of the mental illness that he evidently battled?
3. Fischer's chart reveals a grand air trine and a fixed T-Square. Mars, exactly conjunct his descendant, figures strongly in both. What do these aspect patterns tell us about him, and what do they add to an understanding of his life?

Previous Newsmaker: Steve Fossett

Take a look at what our readers had to say about Steve Fossett's chart:

1. What factors in his chart explain his drive, his need to accomplish wondrous feats, to do what no one has done before? For those who study declination, note that his Mars is out of bounds at 24°37' northern declination in Cancer and in the 6th house. What does the position of Mars add to your interpretation of his adventurous competitive nature?
2. He said that even as a child he didn't care for team sports, preferring individual feats. What in the chart describes his solitary approach to athletic endeavors?
3. In a way, his disappearance is as remarkable as the number of records he holds. He has always been considered adventurous but not totally foolhardy, daring but careful and resourceful as well. Is there anything in the chart that might describe his disappearance and suspected death? If he had consulted with you before his last take-off in September 3, 2007, what might you have told him about the flight?
