Henry V at Agincourt: an Astrological Review, Part III

In the previous post, I presented two alternatives for the nativity of Henry V, and favored the second of them based on a number of factors, but most specifically due the emphasis of Mars as befitting the chart of a warrior king. I proposed the chart as being "hypothetical".

In this post, I will continue to pursue the hypothesis in comparison with the nativity of his principal rival, Charles VI of France, that nation's ruler at the time of Agincourt, and I will review and discuss some charts leading up to the battle.

Henry V at Agincourt: an Astrological Review, Part II

For anyone who read Part I of this post, and thought "don't quit your day job", don't worry. For those who are familiar with the work I do in my day job, and thought "please quit your day job", I'm sorry. But as we dig deeper into this event and the actors in it, the more interesting we may find it.

I mentioned above that Henry was 28 when the Battle of Agincourt occurred, though this is a matter of debate. When I started this project, I looked on the astro.com website, which specifies a 16 September 1386 nativity. But other sources indicate he was born on 9 August 1387 [this is the date given in the Wikipedia entry]. One explanation for the doubt here is that when he was born, his father Henry IV was not then king, and there wasn't the kind of interest in his horoscope that there might have been if he had been born prince and heir.
