So you know how I like to talk about celebrity charts. The issue is, I can’t make long posts about all of them because a) waste of time lol b) sometimes only a part of their chart is interesting. So this is just a handful of things I’ve noticed when looking at charts.
Also, just want to prefix this by saying that I use whole house for these.
⭐️ I’ve noticed that a lot of actors known from movie franchises, especially Marvel, have personal planets in the 8th house (Chris Evans, Chris Pratt, Jeremy Renner, Benedict Cumberbatch, Natalie Portman, Brie Larson, Mark Ruffalo; Robert Downey Jr). Now this is not the most common placement to bring big fame but I figured those movie series are all based on a long-term contracts (7th house) which then bring them A LOT of money (8th house).
⭐️ Speaking of which, did you know Natalie Portman and Chris Evans were born just a few days apart and they both have Scorpio risings? Natalie has her Moon in Virgo while Chris has it in Scorpio (in relatively close degrees). This means they have nearly identical charts. And look, they’re both actors since childhood. They’re both starred in big franchises (let’s not forget Natalie got big thanks to Star Wars). I just think it’s interesting.
⭐️ Oh also, did you know that Steve Rogers’ Sun (yes, we have an official birth date for Captain America) is cojunct Chris’ Venus? Idk what to make out of it either, just a fun fact.
⭐️ OKAY THIS ONE IS MY FAVOURITE I’M SO EXCITED ABOUT THIS. Adele filed for divorce during her Saturn return. Where is her Saturn? You’ve guessed it, in the 7th house. On top of that, her ex husband is 15 years older than her #saturninthe7thstories #dontgetmarriedbeforeyoursaturnreturnifyouhavesaturninthe7th #saturninthe7thhavingathingforolderpeople #godiloveastrology #iknowthesetagsdontworkbutwhatever
⭐️ I randomly glanced at Demi Lovato’s chart once and it perfectly shows the polarities between good and bad aspects (something people sometimes struggle understanding). They have an exact grand trine in earth signs with Moon exalted in Taurus on the MC. Obviously there’s an enormous talent and fame since childhood. The problem is their both benefics are ill-dignified in Virgo, which results in struggling with finding happiness and sense of self-worth.
⭐️ Whenever I see a piece of news about Olivia Rodrigo I see her being attacked by the public for no reason. So why is she a hater magnet? Probably because she has an exact Saturn-Mars opposition. With Saturn being her chart ruler. So she’s being bullied by Mars (being in her 12th house, which is the house of hidden enemies). Doesn’t help that her chart is pretty tense overall.
⭐️ Similarly, I think people bitch about Brie Larson and her “mean attitude” (which, for me, is just a stereotypical Aries rising attitude lol) because a) she has Mars on the descendant b) that Mars is in detriment in Libra and rules her ascendant. So, it’s basically the people (7th house) attacking (Mars) her because they feel like it’s her acting that way. Mind you, that Mars is also squared by Saturn which is placed on her Capricorn MC (that’s her reputation/how she’s seen by people).
⭐️ Now one that’s a downer: Dave Grohl (Nirvana/Foo Fighters) and Mike Shinoda (Linkin Park) have one major thing in common: a harsh malefic in the 11th house (house of friends). Obviously both of them experienced a loss of their respective bandmates and dear friends, Curt Cobain and Chester Bennington. Dave’s Mars is in Scorpio so it’s in its domicile but (as Chris Brennan pointed out recently), his chart is behaving more like a day chart (he has Sun on the ascendant) so Mars is behaving as a greater malefic. In the case of Mike, he has Saturn in Leo in its detriment and in a night chart (Saturn is the greater malefic for him).
⭐️ Gordon Ramsay has a cazimi Venus in his chart. Now you’re probably thinking, how is that, shouldn’t Sun conjunct Venus, not to mention cazimi, be full of charm and beauty and blah blah? NO (I mean, not necessary). Remember he’s a great cook, a tv personality and a writer. All of this requires an enormous sense of aesthetic, balance and an eye for details. And tastebuds. Great tastebuds. On top of that, those two planets so tightly together connect the houses they rule: 3rd (communication), 5th (entertainment) and 10th (carreer).
⭐️ Another pair of actors who were born just a few days apart: William Shatner and Leonard Nimoy (any Star Trek geeks here?). Apart from having personal planets in the same signs, there’s other similarities between their charts: both having fixed rising signs (Shatner being Aquarius, Nimoy Scorpio) and both having feminine Moons (Taurus and Cancer respectively). As Captain Kirk and Mr. Spock, they’re one of the most iconic duos in pop culture and what’s interesting is, Shatner’s ascendant line is conjunct Nimoy’s IC. If you look at it from the dsc/MC perspective, Nomoy’s career (MC) was pefectly aligning with Shatner’s partnerships (descendant). Their Moons were also exactly sextiled so there was something natural & fitting about their relationship.
⭐️ Britney’s chart (YES Britney’s free 😭) perfectly shows the dynamic between her and her family/father. She has a Libra rising with exalted Saturn in the 1st house (which, you could say, did to some extent made her exalted as a person), ruling her 4th house (family/father) and sqaring Venus, which is her ascendant ruler. Sometimes the easiest and most straight-forward interpretations are the most acurate. So, her father (Saturn) restricted her (1st house/square to Venus).
⭐️ I’ve talked about it once but Billie Eilish released her debut album when transiting Jupiter was right on her Sagittarius Venus-MC-Sun stellium (Jupiter was 24° Sag, while her abovementioned natal placements are 20°, 22° and 26° respectively). Talk about timing.
⭐️ I’ve noticed there’s quite a few oppositions in the synastry between Eminem and Machine Gun Kelly. They have Venus oppositions, Jupiter oppositions (Eminem’s chart ruler), Mercury oppositions (by sign; MGK’s chart ruler) and they’re of an opposite rising signs. Obviously doesn’t mean all people with opposing planets will be feuding, it’s just MGK’s a bit dumb lol.
⭐️ My twitter timeline was flooded with Paris Hilton’s wedding yesterday and how she’s making a reality-show about her getting married (yea, the proposal on the beach was NOT staged AT ALL lol). I know her chart & it does look like a chart of someone well-known and from a wealthy/prestigious family (4th house ruler, Jupiter tightly conjunct exalted Saturn in Libra on the MC) but I was thinking, she’s one of the very few celebs that are willingly showing their private life on tv and I guess, again, it’s Jupiter (also her ascendsnt ruler) conjunt Saturn (her Sun ruler) on the MC – she just needs to be seen and looked at and the fact that Jupiter also rules her 4th, she has no issues sharing her private stuff as well.
⭐️ Lastly, I looked at charts of celebrities who look alike (only those with available time of birth tho) and these are some major things they have in common:
Bryce Dallas Howard is an Aries rising while Jessica Chastain is an Aries Sun. Their ascendant ruler, Mars (Jessica is a Scorpio rising), is in Pisces in both charts.
Katy Perry is a, what I like to call, superscorpio while Zoe Deschanel’s MC is conjunct that stellium (she was mistaken for Katy quite a lot). Katy’s ascendant ruler, Mars is in Capricorn – Zoe’s rising sign.
Susan Sarandon and Sigourney Weaver are both Libra Suns and have Venus conjunct in Scorpio. Susan’s MC/IC axis is conjunct Sigourney’s asc-dsc axis.
Chelsea Handler and Elizabeth Banks are both Virgo risings. Chelsea’s Pisces Sun is conjunct Elizabeth’s Mercury and Elizabeth’s Aquarius Sun is loosely conjunct Chelsea’s Sun.
