ATTENTION ASTROLOGERS AND ASTROLOGY-CURIOUS THIRD PARTIES: charts and interpretations are below the biography and non-astrology reading material.
Edward Norton's time of birth is unknown, and man, I hate that. The Earth rotates approximately one degree (per 360 degrees) every four minutes, and selecting the wrong time of birth gives noticeable results. And for those of you out there (including astrologers) who think this is irrelevant, you are very wrong. I personally think it should be a law that one's time of birth be available on one's birth certificate, just to prove that the party delivering the birth is competent about recording events. I think I got the proper time, but I could be off in a timeframe of one hour.
Biogaphy of Ed Snowden
Background: Born June 21, 1983, he grew up in Wilmington, N.C., but later moved to Ellicott City, Md., he told The Guardian. His mother, Wendy, is the chief deputy clerk for administration and information technology at the federal court in Baltimore, a court official told NBC News. His father, Lonnie, is a former Coast Guard officer who lives in Pennsylvania, the Allentown Morning Call reported. A neighbor said he has an older sister who is an attorney.
"He was a quiet guy, kept to himself. He always dressed nice, was clean cut. He just reminded me of a brainiac," said neighbor Joyce Kinsey. "I feel terrible for his family." In his interview with The Guardian, Edward Snowden said the only thing he feared from outing himself is the "harmful effects on my family."
Education: He did not complete high school. He told The Guardian that he studied computers at a community college and obtained a general equivalency degree. A spokesman for Anne Arundel Community College confirmed that a student with the same name and birth date took classes there, from 1999 to 2001 and again in 2004 and 2005.
Military service: He spent four months in the Army reserves, from May to September 2004 as a special forces recruit to a 14-week training course, the Army said. "He did not complete any training or receive any awards," an Army statement said. No other details were given, but Snowden told The Guardian he was discharged after breaking his legs in an accident.
Government work: His first job with the National Security Agency was as a security guard, and the next stop was an information-technology job with the CIA, which stationed him in Geneva in 2007, he claimed. He said he left the CIA in 2009 to work for private contractors, including Dell and Booz Allen. Through his job with Booz Allen, he was assigned to NSA offices in Japan and, more recently, Hawaii. Booz Allen said he has been an employee for about three months. He told reporters he made about $200,000 a year.

A real estate sign stands in front of a home in Waipahu, Hawaii, Sunday, June 9, 2013, where Edward Snowden, source of disclosures about the U.S. government's secret surveillance programs, lived with his girlfriend until recently. A Hawaii real estate agent says Snowden and his girlfriend moved out of the home near Honolulu on May 1, leaving nothing behind.
Hawaii: He briefly lived in a 1,559-square-foot rented home on Oahu, where neighbors said he and his girlfriend, who has not been named, kept to themselves. "They just say, 'Hi' and 'Hello' in the morning," Angel Cunanan told NBC "He mentioned that he worked for the government." Local residents said the couple never really unpacked before they moved out May 1, after the owner decided to sell the house, the Associated Press reported.
Exit plan: When he decided to go to Hong Kong to await the fallout from the leaks, Snowden told the NSA that he was taking a leave for treatment of epilepsy, a condition he told The Guardian he was diagnosed with last year after seizures. He said he didn't give his girlfriend a specific reason.
Ed's Personal Data
Sexual Fetish: very sexually active with women. Ed stated that he likes to eat Krispy Kream donuts after sex.
Recreational Computer Interests: enjoyed working with and creating Japanese anime cartoons. He apparently was very knowledgeable with advanced techniques of computer animation. He reportedly created a "self-portrait" anime cartoon of himself, with the character wearing a t-shirt saying "I Love Me:"
He also reportedly enjoys playing with the Rubiks Cube, and he reportedly carries one almost everywhere he goes (and this strengthens the argument that he is a Gemini and not a Cancer).
Personality: considered himself "a ladies man" in younger years and reportedly has a slight egotistical flair regarding his technical abilities. Also likes his privacy, and may have learned to respect the privacy of others.This is unusual for a Gemini, as Gemini has been called a sign of "great curiosity."
Basic Chart: Gemini Rising With Mars Conjunct Ascendant
I am 90% certain Ed's rising sign is Gemini. He has that long bird-like face that is the trademark for Gemini rising. The active sexual nature and red hair are also known trademarks for Mars conjunct the Ascendant. Here is a "copy and paste" from my notes regarding Gemini rising and appearance:
Gemini rising has a narrower head that is often longer than normal. Sometimes it is
normal in length, but tapers to a narrow chin. There is often a high forehead,
and the eyes can be wider apart than average. This is one of the signs that can
allow a person to appear younger than their actual age.
Their energy is generally lateral, even scattered, receptive, communicative,
quick and variable (unless enough earth or water factors calm it down). The
voice may alternate quiet and louder, rising and falling easily in pitch or
volume.
The eyes and movements of the hands are quick and varied, and the thinking and
speech are quicker and more varied than Cancer or Taurus. They are alert and
agile with longer than average limbs, hands and feet. The fingers are generally
longer than average. They are talkers and can dominate the communication if
confident of their audience. They generally can only be still if their hands
and thoughts are focused on a task like writing, typing, or with crafts or
artistic creativity. They tend to have intellectual interests, but have too
much energy outward into the nervous system to not be physically active, even
if only gesturing or walking. They bring interest, curiosity, spontaneity and
variety to those around and can be charming with their wit and quick retorts.

Overview of The Saturn Return
The Saturn return occurs once approximately every 28-29 years. I will be getting my second return 2-3 years from now, and from what I can gather about the first return, it's a time of great responsibility and a lack of recreational activities (that it can and will make one isolated and depressed). It is a time of learning about oneself, and these lessons may get forced on one (with the Saturn return) in ways that one may not care for. One noted effect after completion of the Saturn return is a feeling of "thank God it's over" but will also "thank God it happened."
First Documented $250 contribution to Ron Paul
Whole lotta stress going on!! This contribution was made shortly after his first "pass" of Saturn over his natal Saturn. Note the grand cross going on with transiting Venus opposition natal Moon and transiting Moon opposition natal Venus. THIS IS A CRISIS INVOLVING PEOPLE YOU ARE CLOSE TO (i.e. family, girl friends) AND IMPORTANT FRIENDS AND ASSOCIATES (or, friends and associates one wishes they can be identified with or "hang around with" and share gossip/information with). Also note the T-square with transiting Sun bisecting Ed's Sun opposition Neptune natal placement. THIS CAN BE DEFINED AS A CONFLICT OVER OR A CONCERN WITH ONE'S ATTENTION ON FRAUDULANT IDEAS OR DECEPTIONS (and Ed was a professional spook).
Second Documented Contribution To Ron Paul
This occured after Saturn's second pass over his natal Saturn AND Pluto placements on his horoscope, while he was in Hawaii.Snowden was probably VERY DEPRESSED AND ISOLATED at this time, even if he was "living in paradise" in Hawaii with his ballet dancer girlfriend. Transiting Neptune is squaring natal Jupiter, and I notice that gamblers like to gamble under this transit. Gamblers can either win big or lose big under it (and not care either way, since the gambling action is what "feels good," not the winning). Neptune is also fast approaching his Midheaven, and this is where his reputation (an attribute that describes the Midheaven) gets a taste of deception experienced OR recognizes deception that has been taking place and exposes such to others. I am aware that this transit could define Ed Snowden as "having a reputation as a deceiver," but the guy is a spook anyway (and is revealing to others that he is a spook who engages in deception, after the fact).
Finally, here's my new self-portrait in Austin, Texas. The light above my head is from the crystal light bulbs nearby; it is not an "electrical discharge" seen in robots or an aura component of my aura.
