Willem Alexander King of Netherlands of Orange
april 27 1967 19.57 Utrecht the Netherlands

I have tried to upload the chart from Solar Fire but somehow can't seem to manage. Please would somebody add the chart?
His sun is in Aries and is angular (in mundo), on the Descendant. Venus is on the Vertex.
If I recall from a post from Jim it is often that royals have an exalted angular sun, statistically?
This would be a great example.
His moon is in Scorpio:

Jim wrote in the new instant astrologer: lunar Scorpios are among the most welcome guests at any party, for these are the “fun people,” good natured and friendly (though often erecting walls as intimacy looms near), and willing to do almost anything for a good time.
This describes him very well, the way the outside world sees him.
His aspects that stand out are: sun conjunct the node 0'05.
Ebertin says in his book the combinations of stellar influences:
Relationship with the public. Shared experiences.
His moon is seisquisquare the node 0'01.
Ebertin says:
A union with others. Association of people in small or large groups.
Moon square Uranus 1'12.
Sun seisquisquare Uranus 1'07.
In relation to his dutiful and respected mother who served the country for 33 years, it seems that he is much more into reform and renewal willing to give the throne a fresh new start and modern image. Hence this aspect tells this quite well. He is very popular amongst the youth and so is his beautiful wife and now Queen Maxima.

King Alexander’s current SSR for rising to his Kingship:

Note Leo the Lion King rising in Alexander’s current SSR with Natal Pluto conjunct SSR Asc. Ebertin says about Pluto-Ascendant symbolisn:

The rule and control over one's environment.

Also note SSR Jupiter exactly conjunct his SSR Zenith, the highest point of the zodiac for his SSR, and SSR Jupiter partile conjunct Alexander’s Natal Venus, with n. Venus almost partile conjunct n. Vertex. These SSR combinations dominate his SSR showing we should never overlook Jim’s auxiliary angle—the Zenith for SSR analysis.

British (House of Windsor) monarchs have a nearly perfect occurrence of Jupiter foreground. (The one exception abdicated; and I've expected since the early '70s that Charles would never sit on the throne, or would do so only briefly.)
Fagan found popes and other monarchs with a number of dignified planets, of which Sun in Aries is one example. This chart also has Venus in Taurus and Jupiter in "Cancer. Against these three dignities, we also find Moon in Scorpio and Mercury in Pisces, so I would weigh that as "muted dignity" as a monarch.
If this were medieval times (or, in general, an era of truly powerful monarchs), we would expect a warrior king with strong militaristic tendencies and an iron hand (from the Aries-Scorpio plus a Class 1 Moon-Mars aspect). But with Moon square Uranus-Pluto, it is no surprise that you say he is reform-minded. The close Mercury-Mars opposition (with Mars in Virgo to reinforce it) joins these to mark a creative, expressive individual with a keen, discerning, strategic mind.
This is a chart extremely prone to alcoholism. Two Mars-ruled luminaries, a close Mercury-Mars aspect, and Mars in a Mercury sign... these are almost a "grand slam: of perfect marks on the matter.

As for this chart being prone to alcoholism it is perhaps no surprise then that WA has been called Prince Pils (beer) as his nick name before.

I think this is indeed one of his character traits which describes him well.

Florence

Ha ha! Florence, in (American) English calling him "Prince Pilsner" would be both a perfect rendition and get the meaning across.
