Shakespeare’s birth date is uncertain, but Richard Tarnas says it was near Uranus opposite Venus. I am not sure regarding Cervantes and Drake.
In his book, Prometheus the Awakener – The Archetypal Meaning of the Planet Uranus, Tarnas lists the following prominent individuals with Uranus-Sun aspects: Copernicus, Kepler, Galileo, Descartes, Newton, Locke, Kant, Freud, William James, Mary and Percy Shelley, Byron, Keats, Rousseau, Emerson, Thomas Jefferson, Bob Dylan, Marie Curie, Margaret Mead, Gertrude Stein, George Sand, Simone de Beauviour. His Uranus-Moon list is headed by Mozart, Byron and Jung.
This method of listing individuals is like picking cherries - choosing the best among a long list of alternatives. It tells us little in scientific terms until the specifications of the sample list are provided and variance from chance is detected in a properly constructed test.
