Linux
Born September 17, 1991

Quick Points

• Saturn is in 0 degrees Aquarius [new age, IT,computers, technological advancements] and in the 8th house[house of shared resources] - it's a OS system.. which assumes the responsibility (saturn) for it's users..does all the hard work for them, to make the program easier.
• Uranus, Neptune, & Moon are in the 6th house[house of work] Having Uranus in the 6th house alone directs toward a career in the technical field.
• Neptune is in 0 degrees Capricorn, so it's strong - Neptune is the dreamer, and in Capricorn, it dreams 'realistic'.. and actually works hard to make the dream come true.
• Pluto in the 5th house(Scorpio) of play and experimentation. Needless to say Linux goes through experimenting all day. Their fun has to do with risks.
• Venus & Jupiter are in 0 degrees [very potent] in the 3rd house of communication. Linux deals with the public in a fun(venus) and cheery(jupiter) way. They make the learning process sound like playtime.
• Empty 10th house (world recognition) but the ruler of the 10th house is in 6th house, So - Linux doesn't really believe in anything other than service. It's not big on advertising, they keep it on the low and do their work. Basically, their motto is 'work speaks for itself' no need for promotion.
• 2nd house [money] is empty but the ruler, Moon is in the 6th house. Again, these people aren't bent on money making much - they simply love the work they do, it's their emotional need to do their work and money eventually follows.
• Something interesting I need to add: Notice that Linux's Ascendant (appearance to the world) is in Cancer - did you see their Logo, the cute penguin? See a similarity? Cancer is a water sign, and it's known for it's emotional,cute, and motherly image.
  
• Midpoint Configurations
• Uranus = Jupiter/Pluto [ Again and again, successful business/people have at least one of their planets activate the powerfully majestic jupiter/pluto midpoint. Here, we see techno Uranus (rules computers, internet, etc) activates Jupiter(knowledge) and Pluto (experimentation) - Linux finds success through sharing their knowledge and being open to changes for the sake of technological advancement.
• Saturn = Venus/ Uranus -- again, Saturn is reponsible for the usability of Linux, it activates Venus(creativity) and Uranus (technological change) indicating that Linux takes their job very seriously, and that they are persistent hardworkers.
• Neptune = Mercury/Pluto [ Neptune was in a critical degree when Linux was born, so it's important in this chart - Neptune's dream to make it's dream come true activates Mercury (communication,ideas,inventions within traditional settings[4th house]) and Pluto (experimentation) -- this midpoint may explain how the birth of Linux actually happened. According to Answers.com, "In 1991, Linus Torvalds began to work on a non-commercial replacement for MINIX while he was attending the University of Helsinki.[7] This eventually became the Linux kernel." Universities,Houses,Schools, etc are ruled by the 4th house, it also rules a parent but that's for natal analysis. So, Linux was born to make a dream come true (Neptune) in a traditional setting (university of helsinky) [4th house], and it was an innovative idea (mercury).
• In short, Linux's chart has a strong focus on service, work, and hospitality to the world. Not big on publicity and fame, and they're okay with that.
