Kairo Herrera was born in Montevideo on Sunday, August 2, 1970 with the sun and the moon positioned in the constellation of Leo in house five and his ascendant is Aries.
From astrology, the sun represents consciousness and the vital principle. It is the divine spark and the most authentic thing we have: the essence.
Leo is the sign of creativity, heart, generosity and the majestic and these qualities are strongly enhanced in the chart of the musician and communicator.
The birth chart is a map, a DNA of our energies, which could be compared to a music score that tells what kind of song we are. In Kairo’s journey, the leonine energy is present at various times in his life.
According to him, he has always been linked to creativity since his grandfather, a great reference in his life, was an interior decorator and grew up surrounded by design books, pencils, rulers, squares and drawings. Classical music, moreover, was the “soundtrack” of that workshop where his grandfather worked while he played.
His father (a figure associated with the sun) was the center of attention at meetings every weekend, which Kairo always attended with him. At the age of 14, her father placed a guitar on her lap and told her as a joke: “I learned to play the guitar, you won’t be short of girlfriends”.
His adolescence was spent drawing to the point that his high school notebooks had more drawings than letters or numbers.
Slow planets like Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, Neptune and Pluto have cycles that set patterns at the level of destiny and the soul.
In 1987, with the transit of Neptune, a planet associated with music, art, ocean waters and spirituality transiting through his tenth house, which represents vocation and vocational work, Kairo applied through a newspaper ad to be lead singer of a rock band. Although he was not selected, it was there that he knew that he wanted to dedicate himself to music and during this same transit the opportunities came.
Thus, at the age of 17, destiny gave its first brushstrokes as to what the soul wanted to manifest as a way of life. He wanted to be an architect, he studied graphic design and then he had the television opportunity: he was the host of Cámara witness for 9 years, he did theater and radio, among other activities related to art, creativity and exhibition.
Although Kairo refers to his work with great leonine pride, today, at 52 years old, what he has most at hand in his day-to-day life are: a notebook, a pencil and a guitar. He assures that music is what fills his soul.
One of the places he likes to go the most to get away from everyday noise is Rocha, mentioning that when he is sitting in front of the sea, the sounds of the waves against the sand bring him melodies that he records on his cell phone.
When it comes to composing with his band, he says that nobody is in charge, that what is in charge is the song, as if the song had a life of its own.
20 days ago, with Neptune transiting his twelfth house as it happened in that 1987, Herrera fulfilled his dream of playing music in front of thousands of people at the Centennial Stadium. The band he is part of, 4Cuervos, opened for Guns and Roses.
As a good leonine, Kairo is a man of honour, authentic and creative. Proud of his parents and grandparents who forged in him a scale of values worthy of the Royal family.
He considers himself a fun and responsible father, and at work, loved in the media, recognized by his audience with whom he connects from his humility, heart and authenticity.
