Petrarch’s zodiac sign is Cancer. According to astrologers, the sign of Cancer belongs to the element of Water, just like Scorpio and Pisces. Guided by emotion and their heart, they could have a hard time blending into the world around them. Being ruled by the Moon, phases of the lunar cycle deepen their internal mysteries and create fleeting emotional patterns that are beyond their control. As children, they don't have enough coping and defensive mechanisms for the outer world, and have to be approached with care and understanding, for that is what they give in return.
Petrarch was born in the Year of the Dragon. A powerful sign, those born under the Chinese Zodiac sign of the Dragon are energetic and warm-hearted, charismatic, lucky at love and egotistic. They’re natural born leaders, good at giving orders and doing what’s necessary to remain on top. Compatible with Monkey and Rat.
Humanist poet and scholar of the Renaissance whose best-known works include Canzoniere and the Trionfi. His muse was a woman referred to in his poems as "Laura"; her true identity remains a mystery, although she may have been the wife of a French Count.
He was born in the Tuscan town of Arezzo, Italy. Over the course of his career, he published not only poems, but also numerous scholarly works.
Upon the request of his father, he unwillingly studied law at the University of Montpellier.
He and his brother climbed Mont Ventoux (6,273 feet high) in 1336. This experience made a huge impression on Petrarch and greatly influenced his literary development.
Three of his sonnets were set to music by Romantic Composer Franz Liszt.
