Mr. Bean

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!

Butterfly McQueen

Thelma “Butterfly” McQueen was born on 7 January 1911 in Tampa Florida (no birth time available).

Elvis Presley

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 […]

Paul Newman: An astrological perspective

Originally published in The Astrological Association Journal, January/February 2009 Paul Newman was a hero of mine. I loved his rebellious, sometimes cranky nature, his smouldering good looks with the piercing blue eyes. I loved it that he drove fast cars well and that he was so satisfied with what he had that he could donate some of his wealth to worthy causes. He exuded contentment in life and within his marriage. He was a wonderful cook – so much so that his friends inspired him to market his own sauces and dressings. What else could we expect of someone with […]

Buddy Holly and The Day the Music Died

My furry baby Mr Bubbles and I curled up on the sofa to watch “The Buddy Holly Story” the other day as part of my research into celebrities and the actors who portray them. I swear Mr Bubbles enjoys watching biopics as much as I do! Anyway, my baby died on the morning of the anniversary of Buddy Holly’s plane crash. I’ll miss my kitty but there’s something very cool about his connection to Buddy. If you’d like to read more about famous people and the actors who have portrayed them, why not subscribe?

Princess Charlotte

Astrological characteristics between generations always have a tale to tell. Like her grandmother, the new royal baby born on 2 May 2015 at 8:34am (Rodden Rating: AA; Collector: De Jabrun) has a Moon-Uranus opposition so the House of Windsor had better batten down the hatches!! Also, the Charlotte’s Mars is almost in conjunction with Algol (William and Diana have Venus conjunct Algol) so it’s a very interesting, if a little intense, chart indeed! Baby brother George’s descendant is conjunct Algol and little sister’s Mars so don’t bet on these two cherubs getting on very well. The baby’s ascendant is conjunct her father’s […]
