Alexander
defender of men, protector

Alexander is built from Greek roots meaning "to defend" and "man," commonly translated as "defender of men."

✦ Astro Quote
Jupiter in good aspect with the infortunes, changes their malevolency into good. Venus cannot effect any such thing, unless assisted by Jupiter; therefore in procuring good, and prohibiting ill, Jupiter is found much better than Venus. - William Lilly (1602.-1681.)
