Here is an interesting article about charisma:
http://www.oprah.com/spirit/The-Science-Behind-Charisma-and-Confidence/1
It says that charisma has 3 main ingredients: expressiveness, control and sensitivity. Expressiveness would be Mercury and sensitivity the Moon.
It seems that that a lot of what charismatic people have in common is the ability to confidently and enthusiastically communicate their ideas combined with understanding other people's emotions and conveying that understanding through their own body language and expressions. In that sense, charisma might not be so subjective after all because if you don't have these traits, it would be very hard to capture an audience.
