Some artcritics are of a different opinion.

Oh yeah. Hitler, just another story of an artist who, with some encouragement, might have been a productive member of society.
Yup. Hitler just had a bit of an eccentric streak about him. Thats all.
Im from Planet Earth. And you?
While I'm certainly no fan of the man, it's easy to criticize Hitler regardless of what the topic is.
That newly elected congress woman, from Illinois, that said that "Hitler was right on one thing..." is a good example as for the vitriol and even condemnation she endured afterward, even though what the rest of her remark was "...Whoever has the youth has the future." which was about his political savvy and the future fate of a nation.
She was only being honest and that's a very true statement.
The outcry over her honest statement and which was indirectly aimed at the Democratic Party [as the party has been the choice of the greater majority of young voters for the last 60 years] caused Democrats to let out an uproar and which all was picked up by the media and carried like a torch.
There were some that even vehemently cried that Hitler never had a single correct thought his entire life. A ridiculous statement to have made, as heinous and abominable as Hitler proved himself to be, He was quite intelligent in both political and warfare strategy, for had He not invaded Russia, when He did, He would have eventually conquered all of Europe and Russia too.
I've seen a good number of Hitler's paintings and drawings and I say that He had a good deal of talent. While the criteria to enter a prestigious school of art in Europe may be higher than it is in the U.S. [and in truth we don't have many such schools, and since Chouinard Art Institute was stripped of its teaching staff and made over into a Disney dominated training ground for their own staffing needs in the late 1960's-early 70's, the U.S. lost one of its very best, if not THE best it ever had?] He might have been a splendid artist with, or without, such schooling. Not every great artist went to a prestigious art academy, and there are a good number that didn't.
Had Hitler continued with his art endeavors He might have found his muse, He might have found his "groove", much like a number of the early impressionists, of which, again, Van Gogh is an excellent example and if you've seen any of Van Gogh's early works you then should know what I mean.
Maybe you've got some sort of personal score to make with someone with a Venus/Mars conjunction? As that's what the subject here really began as.
If you are saying that such a conjunction doesn't bestow, or even enhance, ones abilities to express themselves in an artistically creative manner
you won't find very many astrologers that will side with you on that position, if any at all?
Unfortunately [actually THANK GOD it's impossible] we can't create a Hitler that didn't have a Venus/Mars conjunction so as to prove what a difference it would make as to any artistic endeavors he had... as it seems to be the only means by which to convince some people that it at least enhances ones' abilities. But being unfamiliar with the birth chart of Adolf [I've glanced at it a few times over the years, but I didn't recall much] I looked to see if astrotheme had a chart and finding that they do,
I see that Adolph had a Mars/Venus conj. square natal Saturn and opposite natal Uranus ... well there you have it. That combination will surely be problematic to such a conjunction, and those are rather strong aspects too, within a 3* orb to either side, and in Fixed Signs as well.
I have Venus opposite a Saturn/Neptune conj. at around 7* in orb [Venus @ 15* Aries 05' 53", Saturn @ 22* Libra 17' 17", and Neptune @ 21* Libra 52' 45"] a bit of a weak opposition but an opposition of some influence none the less. To top it off though,
I also have a Venus square Uranus natal aspect as my Uranus @ 15* Cancer 18' 57" is in strong square aspect with Venus.
So maybe that's why I can understand Hitler and see the talent that he had... as for the three planets, i.e. Venus, Saturn, and Uranus, we've got a similar tenor going on.
My natal Mars @ 04* Gemini 04' 43" is in a weak septile aspect to my Venus and a bit of a weak novile aspect to my Uranus. My natal Mars is just outside the orb of a tri-octile [sesquiquadrate] to my Neptune, along with Saturn. I have Mars quint-hendectile to my Asc. at 17* Scorpio 07' 04", which is way too esoteric an aspect to bring into discussion here, but Uranus is trine my Asc. which is the bit of saving grace I got in expressing myself, even artistically to some degree. My natal Venus is trine Pluto, which is conj the M.C. and both are part of a Harmonic Rectangle in my chart which involve the Moon conj. the I.C.....and it goes on with more aspects to my natal Venus, but I've said enough to, hopefully, made my point.
While I don't have a Venus-Mars conj. I do have a Venus-Pluto trine, which is similar in tenor.
As the "Traditionalists" see it , however, I've only two aspects to my natal Mars, a trine to N.Node [@ 06* Aquar. 54'] ...
and, for which reason you should realize that you won't win any arguments with me, or at least I won't concede to a loss of one, a Mars-Jupiter conjunction, Jupiter in the anaretic degree of Taurus @ 29* 24' 35".
If anyone is curious about that Mars -Venus septile aspect I have and what might result from that. Here's what I do understand and know as for me , personally. The septile is an aspect that finds a means to use what is left over from the previous cycle, it's the last aspect that isn't a bisection of some larger degree aspect, [although the first aspect to do so is the sextile which precedes it]
*
But, getting back to the Mars - Venus septile aspect, I think it is why I am good at finishing up art projects that others have abandoned and, or, left behind... and maybe that is also why I see potential in Hitlers art work, because I see where and what I would change, or add to, his works?.
* Except for the Hendectile, which is a division of the Zodiac by the number 11, and like the septile it is an aspect with an irrational number. In esoterica the number 11 has to do with the angelic, the highest order of it, while the number 7 has something also to do with the lower orders of the angelic. Those are the two aspects that are irrational numbers and in essence cannot be pin pointed in the Zodiac because of that, and they are somehow associated with the angelic. That's all I know about that, if it is indeed legitimate info to begin with?
