Mercury is the first dominant in Nick Cannon’s astral chart. In the following paragraph, we shall indicate the significance of this fact:

Mercury is the planet of communication, and it’s no surprise that Nick Cannon is an excellent communicator. This planet helps him to think clearly and to express himself clearly and concisely. He’s quick on his feet and able to come up with solutions to problems quickly. He’s also a natural born leader, and his communication skills help him to inspire and motivate others.

According to Greek myth, Mercury (or Hermes, whose name derives etymologically from the piles of rocks which marked trails and guided travelers) was the messenger of the gods. He carried orders from Olympus to the mortals on Earth. The child of the illegitimate union of Zeus with Maia, Mercury was born “unknown to the immortal gods” and had to win his place among them by trickery, cleverness, and cunning. This is why he became the vagabond deity of travelers and wanderers.

He is the instinctive foe of the settled who see him as an outcast roaming on the outskirts of society: a pariah, a thief, and a swindler. As ruler of the sign of Gemini, the Twins, he symbolizes the brother—the alter-ego who teaches us as much as we teach him and is associated with adolescence, a period of intense intellectual discovery.

Mercury thus symbolizes lively, sparkling wit, mobility in any form, mental exchange, and interaction. As a result, a person strongly ruled by Mercury is quite likely to be clever and skillful.

If Mercury is “afflicted” in one’s chart, their intellectual velocity may sometimes become mere mental hyperactivity.

In any case, these skills are a great resource in the social realm. You communicate easily and effectively, orally or in writing. Your ability to unite and transmit would be a good resource in diplomatic or commercial endeavors.

Jupiter is the second dominant in Nick Cannon’s astral chart. In the following paragraph, we shall indicate the significance of this fact:

The second dominant position of Jupiter in Nick Cannon’s astral chart indicates that he is a person of great importance. He is someone who is very influential and who has a lot of power. He is also a very lucky person.

In traditional astrology, Jupiter has always been considered as the Great Benefactor, the planet of luck and success such as personal fortune, social prominence, professional prestige, high political position. The Jupiterian bounty is peerless! In psychological terms, this planet has a much vaster significance. As the biggest planet in the solar system, it does preside over the process of personal expansion, interpreted to be fitting into society better and finding an appropriate match between one’s individual ambitions and the aspirations of the group.

This growth is accompanied by a feeling of self-confidence, which, in turn, buoys up an even greater externalization and expansion of the ego – hence the planet’s flattering reputation. But this snowball effect (Jupiter smiles and the world smiles with you), in which social skills magnify confidence and boldness reaps many rewards, betrays the negative side of Jupiter: extreme and excess.

Although grandeur was the characteristic of the “king of the gods,” errors of judgment, poor taste, and sometimes selfishness and pride are also likely to be part of the Jupiterian package. It is important to note that the extension of the ego may be a form of escape; it is tempting to hide behind one’s popularity and social success, which are fairly easy to obtain, rather than be really demanding with oneself. The Jupiterian has a tendency to amplify qualities out of compensation, to avoid seeing weaknesses and flaws. As a result, you must be aware of the risk of over-identifying with your social mask, which would cause you to neglect your inner self and deep nature.

Venus is the third dominant in Nick Cannon’s astral chart. This fact is significant because it means that Venus plays an important role in Nick Cannon’s life. Venus represents love, beauty, and pleasure, so it is not surprising that Nick Cannon is attracted to these things. However, Venus also represents money, so Nick Cannon may be interested in material possessions as well.

In traditional astrology, Venus (or Aphrodite, her Greek name) is the planet of love. A source of universal attraction, this planet corresponds to the original urge which bonds two human beings together in love. Venus is thus both the magnetism which brings human beings together (not lust, which is symbolized by Mars, but the object which attracts lust) and the gift of love. This ambiguity is interpreted astrologically by the fact that Venus rules two houses of the zodiac. In Taurus, Venus symbolizes the awakening to bodily lust, and in Libra, the bond of marriage. As a result, Venus may take on very different aspects depending on the individual’s degree of awareness.

Likewise, this ambiguity explains Aphrodite’s equivocal conduct in Greek myth and her innumerable couplings and motherhood. Depending on the legend, she may embody brutal, passionate love (with Anteros), the wisdom of the heart which rescues from passion (Harmonia); she also becomes tenderness and purity (with Adonis), pure sexuality (with Eros), a transforming energy (with Vulcan), etc. Mistress of the Arts, she represents beauty, understanding, and peace.

Psychologically, individuals under the influence of Venus are struggling with their love instincts. This is why Nick Cannon cannot conceive of living without a personal emotional relationship to someone else and sometimes fears solitude and the encounter with himself. He is extremely attractive to others and is a creator and artistic genius who seems to imbue all he touch with beauty and harmony. His artistic skills are obvious to the people around him and may be applied to career endeavors.

Pleasure, outings, seduction, love, and a thriving but sometimes superficial social life are the hallmarks of Nick Cannon’s life.

The seventh house is an area of the sky which is especially important in Nick Cannon’s theme. In the following paragraph, we shall explain the general meaning of this fact.

According to astrological tradition, the seventh house is related to marriage, contracts, social life, and worldly matters. It can be read for indications about a future marriage partner (the first), and business partners, your “objective allies” as well as your enemies.

Diametrically opposed to the Ascendant, the Descendant (the doorway into the seventh house) symbolizes everything that complements Nick or opposes him. This house thus represents the encounter with the other world, the non-ego. By extension, it embodies all the experiences which result from this encounter: interpersonal relationships, partnerships, marriage, rivalry, contracts, and conflicts, etc.

When this area is especially significant, it indicates that a great deal of Nick’s energy will be invested in the domain of relationships. Bonds, contracts, partnerships, and perhaps the disputes and conflicts which may arise from them will be prominent aspects of his success. However, he will evolve fastest and learn most from friendships and partnerships. He will have to learn to be objective.

Nick’s goal will be to master the interdependency of his relationships, and go beyond a tender and dutiful reciprocity to a truly beneficial mutual exchange and sharing.

By making a distinction between love (the fifth house) and marriage (the seventh house), traditional astrology shows us the difference between the projection of narcissistic self-love (simple self-expression) and the objective encounter with the other on a truly egalitarian basis. To reach the seventh house from the fifth, it is necessary to travel through the sixth: a reorientation of personal energies.

The sixth house is an area of the sky which is especially important in Nick Cannon’s theme. In the following paragraph, we shall explain the general meaning of this fact.

According to tradition, the sixth house is related to health and Cannon’s relationship to his body. It is thus related to illness, hygiene, nutrition, and bodily care. More specifically, this area rules the various failures which Cannon encounters and accumulates in the course of his evolution, which are sometimes expressed as physical disorders like aches and pains, digestive problems, etc.

This area should thus be associated with the need faced by any individual to examine their ego, in order to consciously reorient and transform the behavior they have unconsciously adopted. Should Cannon refuse this reorientation process or try to flee from it, physical discomfort or suffering may set in as a sort of signal – the proof that the impurities of his ego are obstructing the natural flow of his life.

The difficulty Cannon faces concerns his personal growth as a member of society. It shows that he is not yet ready to approach others appropriately, that he must tone down an inflated ego or beef up an insecure, weak ego. The importance of this area in his theme indicates that experiences related to work, duty, health care, self-transformation, and the continuous harvesting and re-planting of his energies and ego are fundamental and may have a major impact on his destiny.

Traditionally, astrologers associated this house with humbly serving others. We interpret this to mean that a person who has not consciously begun the work of reorienting their personality may be doomed to remain the slave of thankless tasks, to toil at subordinate functions deprived of privilege.

The fifth house is an area of the sky which is especially important in Nick Cannon’s theme, because it contains several planets, including the one which rules his rising sign. In the following paragraph, we shall explain the general meaning of this fact.
