Muhammad Ali (nee Cassius Clay) was born on 17 January 1942 at 18:35 in Louisville Kentucky with Jupiter in Gemini and Saturn in Taurus. His Saturn is conjunct the planet of rebellion, Uranus, and so it is worth noting early on that Saturn transits will carry the flavour of this rebellion. Ali was one of the greatest heavyweight boxers (well THE greatest according to him) this century and he was especially noted for his clever aphorisms. His famous quote “I float like a butterfly and sting like a bee” is a perfect example of his Jupiter and Saturn placements. No […]

Elvis Presley was born on 8 January 1935 at 4:35am in Tupelo Mississippi (Rodden Rating: AA ; Collector: Rodden) with Jupiter in Scorpio and Saturn in Aquarius. His first public performance was on 3 October 1945 as Jupiter was in square aspect to his Sun, just after transiting Saturn has opposed it. A few months later, he received his first guitar. Growing up in a largely African-American neighbourhood, “The King” would have been very influenced by what was around him and along with a love of music, is very much in line for someone with the Moon in Pisces. A […]

David Bowie was born on 8 January 1947 at 9am (Rodden Rating: A; Collector: Rodden) with Jupiter in Scorpio and Saturn in Leo. For a man who surprised everyone to the very end, appropriately enough his ascendant is in Aquarius, ruled by Uranus, the only planet in the northern hemisphere of his chart and the tip of a yod with Jupiter and a Sun/Mars conjunction. As he once said: “I always had a repulsive need to be something more than human. I felt very puny as a human. I thought, “Fuck that. I want to be a superhuman.” Quick commercial Break! […]

Rowan Atkinson, also known as “Mr Bean” was born with Jupiter in Cancer and Saturn in Scorpio on 6 January in Consett, County Durham, UK in 1955 (no time of birth available). Jupiter in Cancer finds confidence in treating fellow classmates or colleagues as family and usually there is a pronounced interest in History. Natally, Jupiter is only a few arc minutes from being an exact conjunction to Uranus: this would magnify the eccentric nature of Uranus. A Quick Commercial Break!

Gibson was born on 3 January 1956 at 16:45 in Peekskill NY (Rodden Rating: B; Collector: Rodden) with hard working Jupiter in Virgo and Saturn in Scorpio. He first came to our attention in 1981 in Gallipoli, a movie which secured his reputation as a serious actor as Jupiter was conjunct his natal Neptune. In the run up to transit Jupiter opposite natal Neptune, he had begun starring in the Lethal Weapon series. Following a series of semis squares between the same planets, he directed, produced and starred in Braveheart in 1995. Just after Saturn’s conjunction to natal Jupiter, he again directed, produced and starred […]

I can’t believe it’s been seven years since the death of Jonathan Cainer on 2 May 2016. Many astrologers — as well as many fans and admirers — were affected by his passing. As my own children grew up with his and as he played such a huge role in shaping my life, I still find it very difficult to talk about him. But Jon still drops in for a visit every now and again. He still tells me I worry far more than I should. I get the idea he might be impressed with what I’m doing. As the […]
