Sugar Ray Leonard's Birth Chart
Sun in Taurus · Moon in Virgo ≈
Ray Charles Leonard, better known as Sugar Ray Leonard, is an American former professional boxer. Often regarded as one of the greatest boxers of all time, he competed professionally between 1976 and 1997, winning world titles in five weight classes; the lineal championship in three weight classes; as well as the undisputed welterweight championship. Leonard was part of the "Four Kings", a group of boxers who all fought each other throughout the 1980s, consisting of Leonard, Roberto Durán, Thomas Hearns, and Marvin Hagler. Leonard was the only one of them to beat the other three. As an amateur, Leonard won a light welterweight gold medal at the 1976 Summer Olympics. Wikipedia
Sun in Taurus
26°33′Your centre is steadiness: you slowly build things that last, and sensory pleasure orders you. You flourish when you build at your own pace and give tangible form to what you value.
Moon in Virgo
0°12′You settle by ordering: your emotions are tended with kind routines and useful gestures, not with high drama. You heal what you feel when you give it a practical form, analysing and caring for the details of daily life.
