Rising Sun in Aries, Moon in Capricorn, Mars in Cancer – what abundancy of Rim!
First impressions: there’s tremendous entrepreneur, great-story-weaver, businessman potential here!
Agreed. I look at this chart and I see pure businessman (plus a mind that can shift the prevailing paradigm).

In fact, one of my first reactions on seeing the chart is that I could understand Tropical astrologers concluding that they have the better showpiece for a change. In the TZ he has a Taurus Sun and Aquarius Moon - quite the science fiction entertainer!

But I think the Sidereal chart is correct. It shows not just someone in business but, rather, someone who built an empire - a company that created the tools that handle the vast majority of all high-end special effects in Hollywood (Industrial Light & Magic). Also, Lucas' best-known creations aren't futurism - despite the space ships, they aren't the future. Star Wars took place "a long time ago," and his other greatest work (which was so successful that it got him the carte blanche to make Star Wars) was American Graffiti. He has been one of the biggest promoters of retro ever. Finally, the style of Star Wars was also intentionally a throwback, trying to capture the old movie serials and cheaply made westerns of the past. And, of course, Indiana Jones is a throw-back in time as well.

A note along these lines from his persona life: He has maybe the largest collection of Norman Rockwell paintings anywhere.
