Astrology Observations N°3
Celebrity Edition
Please check out the last two Celeb Astro Observations if you’re interested: [1] [2]
Again, I’ve included famous people of all kinds to keep it interesting. Now perhaps you may find some placements you have, and will take notice of how they’ve manifested similarly or even differently (sometimes that’s a good thing… celebrity lives are hectic).
Keep in mind that I am only interpreting bits and pieces of each celebrity’s charts, as the whole chart should be considered to see how everything has influenced certain manifestations. All of the listed celebrities below have AA to B Rodden Rated Natal charts.
❥ Britney Spears’ 12H Mars square 3H Neptune highlights the hidden lies and deceit that has went on in her life. As many of you know about the #FreeBritney movement, she has been suffering from her conservatorship. It’s lead her to struggles regarding self-autonomy and assertion.
The 12H governs the hidden and subconsciousness, while Mars represents action and even anger. This has been hidden from society. As the 3H governs communication, we can see how Britney hasn’t spoken about these feelings until recently due to control over her whole being and worth (2H Scorpio Jupiter).
If we observe the transits of June 23, 2021— the date of her court hearing over her conservatorship, we can see a transformation regarding her voice:
A Transit Moon conjunct 3H Uranus speaks of emotional freedom and sudden change in expression.
Transit Pluto at 26° (Taurean degree) conjunct 4H Venus refers to a transformation regarding finances and possessions. On top of this, her 4H is governed by Capricorn… which deals with the father and restriction.
Transit Saturn conjunct 5H Aquarius Moon hints at some restraints regarding childhood freedom and emotions. This can even refer to her desires to have a child, but being restricted from doing so.
Lastly, on this day… Britney’s public image and career brought to light some important concerns (especially relating to family or her father in particular). This is seen by Transit Sun being exactly conjunct her Cancer midheaven.
(I could go on about Britney Spears’ chart, but we’ll have to move on from here!)
❥ Mozart has a 29° (Leo degree) on his 6H Aquarius Venus… This explains his grand love for birds and how he was musically inspired by his pet starling.
After all, Aquarius is an air sign and Venus governs the vocal cords. If you take a look at his 6H ruler— Uranus sits right on his Pisces 7H/DSC. Guess what? Uranus governs movement, Pisces governs music, and the 7H/DSC governs love and affection. So of course he was moved by the sound of birds…

❥ It’s absolutely no surprise how Coco Chanel became famous and supported by many people for her designs. She has many fame indicators such as a 29° (Leo degree) on her Sagittarius rising and Libra midheaven.
Her rising’s ruler (Jupiter) is moreover in 7H Cancer, indicating immense support from women. Whereas her midheaven’s ruler (Venus) is sitting in 8H Leo… representing other people’s money and attraction towards her luxurious aesthetics.
❥ Big Sean likely experiences some intensely passionate relationships or connections that simply help him grow. This is quite obvious from his 7H Scorpio Pluto.
If you’re one of those people who wonders about his relationship with Jhené Aiko… and doesn’t understand how an Aries could be with a Pisces— Her 4H Sun lands in his 12H. His 12H Sun lands in her 4H. They have a spiritual bond and deep understanding or comfort for one another.
❥ Adele was meant to become an incredibly influential singer! Her 20° (Scorpio degree) North Node sits in her 10H Pisces. The ruler of this house— Neptune moreover sits in her 7H Capricorn at 10° (Capricorn degree). Essentially, this suggests that her purpose is to bring depth and beauty into the world. Her music is meant to heal others.
As previously noted, Pisces/Neptune governs music, Capricorn governs careers, while the Scorpio influence brings in quite a large following that’s dedicated to her.
❥ If you read Brie Larson’s biography, you would be able to see how her 4H Cancer Jupiter represents her homeschooling. She expressed how this upbringing allowed her to have innovative and abstract experiences.
❥ I honestly don’t think people should be surprised over Kim Kardashian’s desire to pursue law. She has a Virgo Venus at 19° (Libra degree) in the 9H of lawsuits, legal contracts and agreements.
The ruler, Mercury also sits in her 11H Scorpio at 19° (Libra degree)— she has a desire to influence humanity and help bring justice to those in need. Her mind is a lot more acute than people seem to realize— she is a Libra Sun after all… and they’re ruled by air, the scales, and Lady Justice.
❥ Muhammad Ali’s Aquarius Stellium— 6H Sun and Mercury, as well as 7H Venus reflects on his dedication to his progressive beliefs and Civil Rights activism. After all, Aquarius is a fixed sign.
The 6H furthermore governs service to others, while the 7H governs harmony. Ali had a different perspective on what service meant than many, as he refused to serve in the military, objecting the American involvement in the Vietnam war. This all lead to him being stripped of his winning title as a World Champion boxer.
❥ It is no surprise how Bruce Lee— An 11H Scorpio Stellium and 12H Sagittarius Sun native, became well known for this quote:
“Be water, my friend. Empty your mind. Be formless, shapeless, like water. You put water into a cup, it becomes the cup”
As a Fixed Water dominant person, he likely developed and matured into this philosophy over time. The 12H is moreover traditionally governed by Pisces, and is a Mutable sign just like Sagittarius. Therefore, the need to be flexible is quite strong.
❥ Kesha’s 1H Sagittarius Uranus and Saturn actually explains how she identifies as pansexual and vegetarian fairly well. The 1H governs the Self and identity. Sagittarius represents exploration, while Uranus can refer to specific interests in many different types of people.
In regards to her eating, her chart specifically shows her Saturn squaring the 4H Moon and Jupiter. The 4H/Moon governs the stomach and Jupiter governs expansion. Therefore the harsh aspect may refer to restriction on one’s diet.
*Reminder: If you have these placements or aspects, it does not mean they will manifest the same way! You have to consider the entire chart.
❥ David Bowie’s Aquarius rising at 3° (Gemini degree) and its ruler, Uranus in Gemini explains a lot regarding his aesthetic style. As any astrologer would expect in Uranian and Mercurian energy— there is a blurred line between gender and sexuality. There’s flexibility and innovation in these signs and planets!

❥ Aretha Franklin’s 4H Pisces Mercury and Venus conjunct IC explains how her mother and upbringing played a large role in her love for music!
Her mother was a pianist and choir mistress. This is quite evident as Pisces governs music while Mercury governs hands and communication! Venus moreover governs the vocal cords and beauty.
❥ Did you know Frank Ocean started his music career as a ghostwriter for singers such as Justin Bieber, John Legend, and Beyoncé? No?
Well his 12H Scorpio Mercury conjunct Sun and sextile 2H Capricorn Neptune surely shows how he gained recognition behind the scenes and even abundance through this work! Mercury governs writing. In the 12H of the hidden, there’s a clear indication of the writing being deep, emotional and otherworldly. It’s also the house of the arts, and especially music. Since it’s so closely conjunct his Sun, it’s clear how he gained fame from it. After all, the Sun also governs celebrities.
The Scorpio here provides transformations. His ghostwriting work definitely changed his path and allowed him to explore his music. The aspect to his 2H Neptune at a 5° (Leo degree) refers to fame for his voice and music. Remember, the 2H governs vocal cords, while Neptune governs music.
❥ John Baldessari was a conceptual artist, known for his works that explored the power of language through text and photography. His interest in language as an art is prominently seen by his 5H Gemini Venus at 3° (Gemini degree) and Mercury at 12° (Pisces degree). Gemini and Mercury refer to language and communication, Pisces governs photography, and Venus represents the art overall.
❥ Bella Hadid is surely meant to gain abundance and be known for her beauty since she has a 2H Libra Sun and North Node. People are likely to book her modelling projects due to the 7° (Libra degree) on her North Node as well. The sign itself governs business partnerships and contracts!
(Fun fact: Bella’s 8 days younger than me, so we both have this Libra Sun and North Node)
❥ Gigi Hadid’s modelling career started a lot earlier than Bella’s, as she was discovered at the age of 2.
There’s a possibility that Bella’s Libra on her 2H may have given her slower progress in terms of being recognized for her beauty. I’m saying this since the 2H refers to slow movement since its traditional ruler is Taurus.
It’s quite evident how Gigi is known for her beauty, since she is literally a Taurus rising at 5° (Leo degree) and Taurus Sun at 2° (Taurean degree). Especially since Libra is also on the cusp (intercepted) of her 6H— she feels like it’s her daily life, her routine and job to be beautiful. Hence, she may also have high expectations regarding her appearance (even from co-workers).
