Jean-Jacques Rousseau’s zodiac sign is Cancer. According to astrologers, the sign of Cancer belongs to the element of Water, just like Scorpio and Pisces. Guided by emotion and their heart, they could have a hard time blending into the world around them. Being ruled by the Moon, phases of the lunar cycle deepen their internal mysteries and create fleeting emotional patterns that are beyond their control. As children, they don't have enough coping and defensive mechanisms for the outer world, and have to be approached with care and understanding, for that is what they give in return.
Jean-Jacques Rousseau was born in the Year of the Dragon. A powerful sign, those born under the Chinese Zodiac sign of the Dragon are energetic and warm-hearted, charismatic, lucky at love and egotistic. They’re natural born leaders, good at giving orders and doing what’s necessary to remain on top. Compatible with Monkey and Rat.
One of the most influential Enlightenment Philosophers. He created the idea of a social contract between individuals and the state.
He had to fake an interest in Catholicism to gain employment because he had little formal education.
His master work was The Social Contract in which he created the French rallying cry of "Liberty, Equality, Fraternity," but his ideas were later adapted by totalitarian states to justify their existence.
His mother, Suzanne Bernard Rousseau, raised him in a Genevan upper class society.
He influenced both Immanuel Kant in his thoughts about moral law and Karl Marx in his political theories.
