Holly Willoughby

Once upon a time that charming Aquarian babe, Holly Marie Willoughby became famous. That was after she was born in Brighton and raised by a down to earth double glazing manager dad, and air hostess, mum. Mum and Dad wanted the very best for their girl, and surprise surprise, it all ended “happily ever after” because their babe won a BAFTA for her positive contribution to children’s TV. She also had the luck to be born with Mr. Mercury in Pisces, so she would have had that cute way about her from the very moment she came into the world, and it stayed cute unless she had a tantrum, and got frustrated when mum and dad did not understand her. Anyway, Mr. Mercury would have made her dreams of being a super star come true. The fact that she managed to hit the jackpot did not surprise her adoring family, after all they had watched her grow in confidence, and rise to fame at breakneck speed. Almost before her public could focus on their TV screens, wham, she was a celebrity! Could a fairy godmother have guided Holly “to being in the right place at the right time?” Or was it down to sheer talent. In other words, what makes this girl so endearing to the public other than her devastating looks? At this stage one might need to summarise.  

 

For one, she works and plays hard, always good for success. Two, she did model ladies underwear way back when, and also took a shower in a kiosk in Trafalgar Square to encourage the great British public not to waste water. Very, very Aquarian!  Her first lucky break was landing a part in a show featuring S club but she really hit the jackpot when she co hosted “Dancing on Ice” with Paul Schofield helping to attract over 8 million viewers. You see she has a fascinating Venus in Aquarius; it makes her princess-like, and attracts her audience. I mean with that cute smiley face and glowing skin she is just such a galvaniser! The kind of girl who makes a guy turn weak at the knees. Sorry lads she is already taken, she married Dan Baldwin a producer of Ministry of Mayhem, at the young age of 23. Her Venus in Aquarius would have swept Dan off his feet. He would have been amazed by the way she stared into the distance all of a sudden. She was just taking one of her detached breaks, alla Venus in Aquarius. But the fact is she would never allow herself to be swept away by her success story.

 

She remains resiliently down to earth, even though Mars in Pisces would make her prone to dream. Yet she is always determined to make what she dreams happen and that well placed Jupiter in Libra will help her to, ensuring her life is fair. She likes things upfront, people being straight with her and Mr. Jupiter will encourage her to pick the right company, people who believe in her, just like mum and dad always did. Currently, she is co presenting “Holly & Fearne Go Dating, with Fearne Cotton”, attempting to find dates for single people in the UK, her fun style fascinating her public as always but the true secret to her success, that factor that is so hard to pin down is her north node in Leo. It will make her a fun personality, so full of joy and laughter, a really good sport, a front line participator who endears the kids to her children’s shows. Her adult public appreciate her charming ways too, even when she caused that “fuss” when her dress slipped slightly, exposing a breast while she was hosting a robust game on the Ministry of Mayhem kid’s show. But the fact is our Holly did not let it affect her.

 

She likes to joke about her mistakes, she also likes her food, likes a drink too and to live to the hilt. She hates to be alone. Being surrounded by friends and loved ones is one of her raison d’êtres. She once said “My plan is to have children and turn my back on work completely. When I start having babies, I`ll have as many as I can” in fact surrounded by laughing offspring would be Holly’s ideal!  She need not worry, that starry Uranus influence will always surprise her and bring sudden and “destined”, events into her life. There is a sense she will develop a natural interest in spirituality as her existence unfolds. So what does it matter if she has doubts about herself some times? Her buzz remains dynamic, and will lift her up a notch when she feels down. The good news for Holly is that during 2009 a wish could come true. Something she has always wanted to happen, so that lucky star will still be shinning over her still, helping to fill our lives with joy. Go for it Holly!

 

 

Mohamed Al-Fayed

Mohamed Al-Fayed, also known as “the Phony Pharaoh” is an intriguing mix match of fame and infamy. Born under sun sign Aquarius, right from the start Mohamed, nicknamed Dodi, knew he would be “as rich as Midas”. He had seen his school teacher father struggle to bring up a large family, when he was kid in Egypt, and Mohamed wanted more from life. He dreamt of building a pyramid to fame and fortune, and unbeknown to him, every brick would be supported by pragmatic Mercury in Capricorn. He knew he would succeed when he sold soft drinks and worked as a sewing machine salesman and he was right! Eventually he would forge his way up the ladder to personal power and a multimillion dollar empire. Kismet, Destiny, Fate, call it what you will, showered his life path with lucky breaks and useful connections.

 

The fact is he had the right methodology, the astute vision of a master planner, and a nose for a great deal. A superb Mars in Virgo added on astounding creative energy, and his Aquarian sun encouraged a visionary perception of what was possible. Add this to an Aquarian moon gifting him with a shrewd awareness of human weakness, plus a capacity to manage resources efficiently, and the road would be free of obstacles. When he was still struggling to make a name for himself, logical Venus in Capricorn encouraged him to marry Samira Kashoggi whose brother, the arms dealer Adnan, got him into the Saudi Arabian export business. By the way, Mohamed’s rather passionless Venus does not usually nurture dreams of romantic love. Yet his third marriage to the Finnish model Heini Wathen, with whom he has sired four children, appears solid. In short, this is a man whose astounding capacity to manifest his dreams is a done deal. However that deal would not all be smooth sailing, eventually there would be a heartbreaking price to pay. 

 

He arrived in Europe in the seventies, subsequently bought the Hotel Ritz in Paris, restored it and in the process was made a Chevalier of The Legion of Honour. He creamed his cake by buying the House of Fraser in London, and of course that included the mythic Knightsbridge store Harrods. But a feud resulted with Toland Rowland, who had also wanted to purchase Harrods at the time, accusations followed with subsequent feuding.  Scandal followed scandal, and Jonathan Aitken, Neil Hamilton and Tim Smith were all said to have been involved in the shenanigans. Perhaps as a result of the uproar, Dodi’s request for UK citizenship would be relentlessly turned down; he was considered of doubtful character. Notwithstanding he soldiered on, Jupiter in Virgo knowing that his mission was worthwhile, that if he continued to push he would reach the top of the pyramid and clinch the ultimate deal, British Citizenship. He felt the United Kingdom was his home, and there was little that would deter him from battling for his place amidst the “movers and shakers” But then the fates fell on his head, with the loss of his beloved son Dodi, and Princess Diana in that historic Parisian car crash.

 

The horror of it would affect him forever, Dodi has never accepted what happened and like the hero of a Greek tragedy, he gives credence to Saturn the taskmaster who makes him aware that terrible challenges are part of human existence. Yet Saturn also pushes Dodi on, encouraging him to seek answers to what is inexplicable. His search for justice resulted in accusations of his turning the Inquest “into a circus”. But for Dodi, it is natural to doubt the “powers that be” he is more than aware of the dangers of corruption, and his Aquarian moon had always warned him to be on the lookout for human frailties. Dodi will never trust anyone. Perhaps because deep within him, he knows the lengths a man could go to get what he wants! So he faced down Princes Charles and Phillip, accusing them of being responsible for the accident. His repetitive questioning became a “cause célèbre”. In any event, Pluto in Cancer tends to make him paranoid about his and his family’s safety. Sadly, none of his money, power and social clout can stop the workings of fate, a fate that had been his friend and guided him to untold riches!

 

In truth, Dodi is a master of life’s ceremonies, in the good and in the bad. Nothing can detract from his deep resolve, his capacity to shoulder immense responsibilities. He is not to be underestimated, for his perceptions are honed in, his wisdom astoundingly perceptive. Yet his mind leads him to great suffering, due to his incapacity to believe in the fundamental goodness of the human race. A goodness his sun sign Aquarius would encourage him to recognise, yet his karma and diverse planetary positioning, block him from experiencing. It is time he started living a sweeter life. 2009 and 2010 will be better years, difficulties are edging away, he is regrouping, and even though he will continue his perceived search for Justice, a wish for something wonderful and close to his heart will manifest, and relieve his suffering soul. We wish you the best of luck Dodi!

Amanda Holden

There could not be a better name for Ms Holden, than Amanda, and no better sun sign for her than Aquarius. Her name sums up her life purpose for the meaning of the name Amanda is “she who must be loved”, and if you add on to that all that open minded Aquarian energy, and those beautiful but unusual looks, it is obvious she cannot fail to obtain the success she desires. Amanda was already an old soul when she dropped off on planet earth, and she continued to develop that inner knowing of hers, even as she grew up in an archetypical English village in Hampshire. As a child she had a naturally magical perception and a mesmeric attraction to acting. She joined a theatre group at only nine years old and went on to study speech and drama at  Bournemouth University , later graduating from Mount view Drama School, with an agent already standing by her side. 

 

She remembers her times as a drama student in London, “I had a weekend job in a shoe shop to get me through college. I had a grant, but when you study in London you need as much money as you can get. I also once sprayed perfume in Boots for a week, but I couldn’t stand the smell.” She was obviously on a quest, and nothing could stop her from reaching the “castle at the top of the hill”, not even spraying smelly perfume. She continued to move on and up, her good looks and natural charisma drawing much attention, and opening up exciting new vistas. She is certainly a polished performer nowadays, gracious, a pleasure to watch. Those of us who are Amanda fans could get addicted to her strong role in Wild at Heart, the gracious way she judges contestants in Britain’s Got Talent. She sympathises with those folks; she made her TV debut on Blind Date! But not long after she moved into some exciting roles.

 

She auditioned for Tiffany in East Enders, but hit the jackpot in the successful BAFTA nominated “Cutting It” about stressed hairdressers overcoming life’s challenges. Amanda will go for what a director demands of her, her moon in Libra wanting balance, seeing the other fella’s point of view, consistently working to bring forth a superior performance. Her Mercury in Aquarius will help her synthesize her roles, overcome a tendency to impatience, learn to not always expect things be done “her way!” Mars in Sagittarius will nudge her on, help her work towards a higher vision of her career and life, and make it easy for her to channel energy into inspiring projects. She has a strong will and can adapt to whatever is lain out before her.

 

Amanda’s love life has had a great deal of media attention. Her first marriage to Les Dennis broke down, and they divorced, some say due to her affair with Neil Morrissey. She is now married to Chris Hughes and is the mother of lovely Alexa, her first child. Amanda is earnest when it comes to love, especially with such a gracious Capricorn in Venus. Even if she did not always succeed in her romantic intentions, she still wants to share deep sentiment, family life inspires her purpose. Mars in Sagittarius will make her straight to the point; she can only really say what she feels, sometimes to her own detriment. But still, up front Mr. Mars will compensate, gifting her with boundless energy, the kind of energy that ran the London marathon for over four hours on behalf of the Born Free Foundation.  

 

Amanda has come to this earth with a mission, not only to be “one who must be loved”, but to move gracefully through life, giving of her talent, her friendship and her creative gifts.  She might feel she has to move on from a couple of challenging situations in 2009, leave old ways behind her, and examine a new take on her life and her art. She will find herself connecting to a different type of creative project, projects where she can expand, reach out to new ways of presenting her craft. After all she is an Aquarian, the water carrier, a free spirit, Her thought processes are original her take on life unique. We cannot wait to see her advancement as she continually entertains and intrigues us. She is indeed just like her name Amanda, very lovable indeed.

Oprah

Newsweek Magazine stated of this astounding woman, media mogul and philanthropist. “Every time a politician lets his lip quiver or a cable anchor “emotes” on TV, they nod to the cult of confession that Oprah helped create.” Okay, she does not have the African Queen looks of Naomi Campbell, nor is she your baseline showbiz personality but her showbiz chutzpah is matchless. She introduced a compelling “open your heart, let it all hang out” style to the airwaves, which has been imitated around the world. Her sun sign in Aquarius stimulated her personal evolution to this end, her spiritual perceptions presenting galvanizing “events” to the public. 

We love her popular website “Oprah.com”, where we can enjoy meditation techniques and interviews with revolutionary new age celebs. She shrieks “reinvent yourself” at us, never afraid to take controversial stands even though heckled for her ground-breaking attitude. She is avant garde yet mainstream, investigative yet inspirational. Interestingly, she was nominated an Academy Award for the Steven Spielberg film the “The Color Purple” a story of a black woman’s struggle, similar to her own. Born in Mississippi to unmarried teenage parents her mother’s immaturity did not protect her from a traumatizing rape at only nine years old, and at fourteen, the birth of a child who later died in infancy. She lived with her grandmother on a pig farm for a while, her gran encouraged her, noticing that as soon as she could talk, and it was as if Oprah was on stage.

She later moved to be with her father Vernon, whose encouragement helped her pursue a higher education. She was earmarked as a bright spark, skipped two classes, became an honors student and was voted the most popular girl on campus. With the help of a hard working Guardian Angel and the glittering rays of Mercury in Aquarius her distinctive Spirit emerged triumphant. She chose to follow a media career. One of the youngest newscasters on air, she soon hosted her own show. By the mid 1990s her interviewing style brought personal prominence and mega bucks. She is said to be worth $1.1 billion. Yet, what magical formula makes everything Oprah touches turn to gold?  Okay, she is obviously distinctive, impressive, has great breadth of vision, yet could it be that Aquarian capacity to disassociate from negative emotions that is the key? She once said “be thankful for what you have; you’ll end up having more. If you concentrate on what you don’t have, you will never, ever have enough”. 

A stirring Mercury placement will help her cultivate that inspirational capacity to see a bigger picture. Venus in Aquarius will make her magnetic, charismatic, captivating, fascinating, and able to charm others with her direct approach and benevolent energy.  She fascinated Stedman Graham, her long term relationship with this lovely man, after a series of broken romances, has given her the domestic security her heart yearns for. She needs that baseline love to support her dreams. Mars in Scorpio will gift her with a down to earth approach to challenges, standing up to trials most of us would balk out, always fighting on, reaching for magnificent dreams to her last breadth. She will never be sweet, she could be overbearing, and “nothing” can be allowed to stand in the way of her visions.  Her positive soul energy would stop her from being dictatorial and heavy handed though!

She is working for the good of humanity! Okay, she could be given to the odd explosion of irritation, but again she will never fall victim to moods. Jupiter in Gemini has gifted her with the capacity to assimilate information fast she might even have a photographic memory. She will continually attempt to broaden her scope, integrating more knowledge to her repertoire.  But it is her moon in Sagittarius that holds us forever enthralled. The High Priestess of any situation, she will lay her astonishing perceptions before us with grace and savoir faire. Her moon in Saggy will make her consistently curious with a love of travel and people. A humanitarian, opening up a school for underprivileged girls in Africa, not even that dream could be held back by a scandal that recently knocked her for six!

Perhaps her life’s inspiration works because it is found in the hearts, souls and dreams of others, in humanity’s capacity to overcome all odds, just like she did as a child. She will not let anyone block her, repress her. She could fall down over and over again, but that capacity to shine in the dark has made her the immense star of today. Her unique moon placement gives her that sparkle, that “once in a life time” presence, rare qualities that cannot be defined or put into a box, no matter how many envy, judge her, or see her as an upstart! That moon of hers shines on relentlessly leading us all on with inspiration! 
 
In 2009 we will see Oprah working even harder. She will pinpoint her highest visions, pushing herself and her staff to accomplish. She wants something even better for her fans, something even more “enlightening” and she will not hold back until her search clicks into place. Some astounding project is being planned, perhaps to do with saving the world. Her name will be even more bandied around the world as a result she will continue to remain a phenomenal individual, who has graced our television screens with a revolutionary talk show concept that has changed the face of world media forever. Her support of Obama will continue, and we will watch agog, as somehow, something, deep within us changes, together with her. We are living in stunning times, and Oprah will make us more and more aware of this. We will watch you Oprah! We cannot wait for your new vision to reach us across the airwaves! God bless you!

Paris Hilton

Well folks, it might be hard to believe that the Aquarian socialite, off tune singer, part time movie actress, self proclaimed iconic blonde, the babe with her tiny forefinger in every pie is far more than a “fly by night”. Paris Hilton of “Who kidnapped my doggie Tinkerbell” fame, is indeed a daddy’s girl, and a nice person, yes a nice person. She will inherit the Hotel Hilton Chain and as you will know is a millionaire. Her super sonic Norwegian, Irish, Italian genes make us forgive her tendency to self preen, even her addiction to go excessively public.

We can handle her infatuation with fame even, which probably started from an early age. Yet we find it hard to believe that daddy could have kept his temper for all that long. He obviously turned a blind eye to little Paris running through the corridors of immense palaces chased by her three irate siblings and a couple of snappy Lakeland terriers, blonde curls streaming behind her; very far from your average little girl in lace up shoes. But let us be fair, she is not that much of a brat considering her entourage of carers, body guards, cooks, masseurs, etc, who simply love her. What makes her nice? Well, for a start she did win Harvard Lampoon’s first ever Woman of the Year Award, she also served 45 days in jail for probation violations which served to strengthen her character.

Another important fact about nice people like Paris is that they are usually Aquarians and they are everybody’s friend. They have a tendency to look at silver linings behind every cloud, and would walk to the ends of the earth to sign an autograph, or roll in the mud with Nicole Ritchie. In fact people from all walks of life are their mates, including farm hands. Paris Hilton’s highbrow TV show The Simple Life overflowed with such buddies, but that only goes to show that she will always be the centre of someone’s loving attention. Paris has the moon in Leo, you see which is where we get seriously nice.

Leo moon has surprisingly high ideals and her main focus therefore is how to present them. She likes clothes, makeup, hair extensions, nail extensions, eyelash extensions, breast augmentations, Jimmy Choo shoes, etc. She will be prone to interesting tantrums and will calm down when you show her something beautiful, she loves art. But joking aside, we insist Paris Hilton is kind even though her Piscean Mars will make her prone to hiding that fact. She can fall off a cliff into very intense alone times when she wants to block out prying eyes, make sure that nobody would guess a pretty girl like her has another world throbbing inside her heart, her world, which few people ever get to know. She is somewhat of a gentle soul, gentle, and charitable. She follows her instincts and never expects the worst; ever.

Her Venus in Aquarius would make her the mermaid, the fairy, the princess in a castle, the archetypal glamour puss. She has to be free and if a guy gets possessive, she will be running down that palace corridor with her blonde mainstreaming down her back, just as she did when she was a little girl. But when she does fall in love, her Mars in Pisces will make her tender and caring. She will not be searching for her twin flame all her life, she will find him. Perhaps she thought she had found him in the form of fashion model Jason Shaw, singer Nick Carter, Greek shipping heir Stavros Niarchos. But the fact is they vaporised right in front of her. Her boyfriends probably thought her cold, so aloof they felt excluded, especially when a heart felt declaration was blocked out by her rather prim response, but that is just her way.

A detached perception give her that cool head for business, Paris can see an opportunity in a flash. She has a Japanese purse label, a jewellery line for Amazon.com, her own swimwear, her own fragrance and her own record label. But the truly interesting fact could be that sooner or later we will be even more surprised by this golden girl! She will throw in the towel, believe us, find her twin flame at last, and he could be a missionary, or a renaissance man. They could ride of into the twilight together too. Perhaps build a new age healing centre.

Jupiter in Libra would encourage such events. The fact is as Paris’ time on this planet evolves we will have to pinch ourselves to make sure she has not take over our souls. Believe us, Paris is nice, totally herself, totally ruthless in her dedication to living and so unafraid of saying, doing and being outrageous. So fasten your safety belt as you watch this outrageous heroine, the gorgeous blonde we would all like to have sign our autograph book make the outrageous happen again! This year Paris could find the love of her life, that twin flame we referred to earlier on. There is a love affair coming up for her, in any event, a very unusual, deep, past life, soul mate connection. A love affair that will be big time! Could he be the missionary? Watch this space!

Elizabeth Banks

That song “She must have been a beautiful baby, she must have been a beautiful child!” describes Elizabeth Banks to a tee! She is kind, very cute and friendly due to that soft moon in Libra; we will talk about her Aquarian sun sign’s dreams for the betterment of humanity further down the page. She is naturally reasonable, unbiased, and sensible. One can count on Elizabeth. So what gives? Can somebody really be so stable in a show biz environment where bitchiness and rampant competition is part of the deal? The average babe certainly needs “tough cookie” tendencies to get ahead in Hollywood. So how come this comparatively fresh faced actress manages to make such an impression? Well, people love her, plain and simple, she has this capacity to charm; her sane ways are refreshing in an environment full of starlets clambering over each other to get their slice of the cake. She does not brag, or “blah”, she holds her tongue and gets on with it. Her roles which included the horror “The Uninvited” thrill the public’s imagination, and one senses she will continue to buzz in the show biz stratosphere for a while to come.

The fact is a well-placed Jupiter helps, Jupiter being the planet of luck and abundance!  She has landed some unusual parts in the process of artistic maturation too, including ongoing appearances in Scrubs for 13 episodes as Dr Kim Briggs, a harrowing episode of the Law and Order Special Victims Unit, and Spiderman II; whatever she does her performances are magnetic and the impression long lasting. That idealistic “I am everyone’s friend” water carrier charisma pervades all around her, it makes us want to know more. Mercury in Pisces gifts her a humorous take on life; she is a David Letterman fan, David Letterman of “Late Night” fame. He makes her scream with laughter and anyone who does this is her buddy for life.

A sense of the ridiculous espouses her broad-minded views. She does not hold back saying what she thinks when it comes to the ills of humanity. She is not fragile, is unafraid of decision-making, refuses to get stuck into small print and vibrates with natural humility due to that soft Piscean moon. She will steer her way through obstacle races that would make a marine reach for his mineral water too. Add to that her “almost too good to be true” Venus in Capricorn makes sure she is sensible when it comes to friendship, downright prudent when it comes to love. She wants levelheaded, judicious people around her, not flakes! She likes a man who has a firm grip. She is said to have changed her religion when she married, so once she loves you it is for life eternal with no compromising. She will not throw a temper fit unless severely pushed, but she will get disheartened. At those times she goes within, ready to meet challenging moments alone, moments that leave her feeling “there is no point” to anything much. She always comes out of the melancholy that guides her to “comprehending” the bleaker aspects of life with more energy. We sense angels are very close to her at those times.

The good news is that her bright Jupiter in Aquarius will press her “eastern philosophies button”, she will have a tendency to see humanities’ greater purpose, above and beyond the nastiness. She has faith, she realises we must brave the elements, defy narrow mindedness and oppose what is bad. She might have contact with alternative healers, new age gurus, UFOS or just meditate. That strong Aquarian influence will enable her to detach from difficult, even sinister roles that are so contrary to her true nature. Nothing can dim her light because Mr Mercury in Pisces will click his winged slippers and uplift her giving her a capacity to “mix and match” emotions and moods and sense the complexities of human feeling.

This year will see her paying a lot of attention to her relationship; she will be making life good, putting energy into closeness and clarity with her husband. She will still concentrate on her career, perfecting her craft and making things work. A Destiny-ordained role will slip into her hands at some stage soon, and it will be just right for her, she will shine in it.   Elizabeth ‘s films will still remain on our list of beautiful things to see, mainly because of her talent and complexity as an actor! She is certainly a lady to watch!

Christian Bale

Who would believe that our “Mythic” Mr Bale with his Aquarian sun sign and Moon in Aries is really a sensitive introvert. He certainly found it hard to deal with his new found Hollywood fame in small town Wales. A key word to describe his nature could be “insightful”. His capacity to become intimate with his characters is evidence of this. Yet this gifted actor, so attractively “controversial” is learning the karmic lesson of “cooperation”.

Over the past months Mr. Bale has been confused; his mind has been pulled this way and that by his Neptune placement. He might feel as if facts have been misinterpreted, as if people just have not understood him, as if they have even gone out of their way to upset or disturb his inner equilibrium. He knows he needs to evaluate his attitudes, especially since there will be an expansive influence shinning on his career well past 2009 and his inclination to “over react” needs to be reined in. In fact so  positive will that career influence be that Mr Bale could find his bank balance increasing in awesome amounts.

His acting roles will continue to be intensely dramatic over the next couple of years and the public will forgive him any transgressions and continue to adore his stunning performances. Yet sometimes his sun in Aquarius, that open, “lets all be friends” attitude, will clash with a “blood red” Aries moon and he could say the wrong thing at the wrong time and still feel nobody really understands what he means,…ever.. The good news is that so attractive, charming and gifted is he, it will be hard for anyone to remain eternally offended. His willingness to let go of resentment for the benefit of the bigger picture smoothes over most rifts. Yet his capacity to press others’ buttons will remain and reactions towards him can be challenging.

Some might believe you cannot know this charismatic gentleman without being touched either positively or  negatively. He once said that when he became successful the boys wanted to hit him and the girls wanted to marry him! So, even though his Aries moon has a tendency to exaggerate the personal reactions of those around him, his sharp” airy” mind compensates as he is so much fun, has his finger on every pulse and can do almost anything he sets his mind to.

His charismatic personna, and keen Aquarian mind makes it essential our Mr. Bale keeps busy, concentrated and focused at all times. And this year of encouraging astro influences show exciting creative projects where he can use his workaholic tendencies to the max. At times, his need for domestic harmony could clash with “burning the midnight oil” at the studios; his personal emotions could even seem excessively fragile in 2009.  He is inclined to idealise those he loves, and remains disconcerted when they fall off their pedestals, surprised when they draw a line under his expectations.

A strong ongoing Mars influence could mean that he can become reactive, aggressive, even outrageous within a romantic involvement. He needs to feel fulfilled, get to the bottom of any emotion. Love shows up well in 2009 and since he always finds ways to lick emotional wounds he will find a balance in his personal relationships, at least one that suits him. He can seem so detached, even float above a stressful situation that most people would balk at – but he can do this only at times. In fact, this constant contrast between detached Mercury in Aquarius, and a reactive Aires moon could be a life long conflict. Yet, there is something about the intensity of Mr. Bale’s nature that could draw him towards the metaphysical.

His Plutonian search within the depths of the human soul certainly account for momentous expressive gifts. In autumn he could consider a move or a break, he will certainly need a rest. He will be working full on throughout 2009 and the challenges of his “unrestrained performing” will push him inwards. He could seek out “divine assessment” regarding his life path. He might consult a metaphysical teacher or mentor. As the intensity of the public eye continues to gaze upon him he certainly will be working hard at maintaining his inner equilibrium as this will be fundamental to his continued success. Mr Bale shows up is an original, an actor who will continue to rise in almost “mystical” creative potential within the next three years.

Isla Fisher

Isla Fisher, with her beautiful red hair, porcelain white skin, and delicate frame, could be a mini Rita Hayworth, with that fifties pin up energy vibrating all around her. She could also be compared to a flower fairy even though she might deny this through her teeth. One would expect to see her seated in the centre of a pink rose, emanating bubbles of light! To be sure she is a refined Aquarian whose moon in Pisces makes her ultra sensitive to all things delicate, to all things symmetrical.

She is one who believes in the goodness of humanity!  Her childhood had some difficult moments, the move to Australia could have been one of them.  So she knows about challenge. Do not let her funny film roles in “Scooby Doo” and “Wedding Crashers” fool you either. She is indeed a serious person, prepared to work hard for achievement. Even though her choice of companion, the singularly hilarious Mr. Sacha Baron Cohen, can be a barrel of laughs, Venus in Capricorn makes her a devoted partner dedicated to Sacha’s well being with facets of devotion and adoration to boot. Be that as it may she can scream with rip-roaring hilarity at Sacha’s frolics, or a silly joke between friends but Saturn in Cancer has taught her not to expose her hilarity or sensitivity to those who do not understand it! 

Isla’s inborn good sense was born of Scottish parents in Oman.  She loves the perfume of heather on the moors as much as the sight of the dry desert reaches of Oman, they inspire her inner world. Beauty of any kind sends thrills through her minute frame, Mother Nature’s expanded vistas comfort her soul. She has learnt to be strong and grounded, creating a solid reality both personally and professionally yet she still inspires herself with the aforementioned sense of the ridiculous. So where does Isla’s Neptune in Sagittarius come in then?  That particular planetary combination that has pulled Isla away from Australian soaps such as Home and Away, into the big time. Well, it has encouraged her to fan the flames of her talent, and stand firm in her ambitions. She currently has a capacity to move forwards unobstructed, dodging the more competitive outlets of show biz with balance and charm! Even though her beginnings were creatively modest her comedic interpretations have become popular with a worldwide audience now.

She is no longer afraid to use mainstream media even though she is no mainstream chick. Her intuition is far too tuned into the infinite! So even though she expounds practicality and good sense, deep down she is still a flower fairy, creating joy with a wave of her magic wand.  When it comes to pure astrological facts, Isla’s Jupiter in Aries is the planet that clinches the deal. That placement gives Isla the opportunities, the openings, and a creative web of lucky break after lucky break! But there is another element, the Planet of Surprise, Uranus. Uranus has given her that devastating magnetism, the capacity to enchant an audience, or an individual “across a crowded room”.  Isla will always be a high profile contributor to art and life. Some might say childhood’s “ups and downs” were the springboard that enabled her to empathise with human emotion so well, to integrate more sensitivity into her performances.  Yet, if you were to scratch below the surface you might also find a lost love somewhere in Isla’s background, a sentiment that moulded her deep within.

She is such a brilliant individual, however, she will never let anything “negative” really pull her down, she will simply translate it into gusty emotional know how. Isla will be working hard on various fronts this year. She could be involved in a mission that has to do with the preservation of this planet. She is determined to go on giving, giving, giving and that is her underlying theme. Her favourite song could be “Imagine” even though she would not classify herself as an idealist. Yes, Isla is combination of fifties beauty and intrepid fairy who expands her inner universe outwards and enchants the world in a continuum of laughter, enthusiasm and sheer talent!  There are no confines to Isla’s expression, not for a long time to come anyway!

Jennifer Aniston

Is Jennifer Aniston really like the dippy Rachel of Friends, the girl next door so many adolescent boys’ dreamt of? “No”, “no” and yet again “no!” She was born on the 11th February and in case you did not know, 11 is a special number, a master number that signifies both vision and balance. She has always had these attributes in ample quantities and we simply loved her wise cracking nymphet persona, the perfect friend in Friends! In truth she is such a talented comedienne, we had problems defining where Jen ended and Rachel began! We could not help but cheer her on though, wanting her to make it through her various nights. We whooped a storm when she married Brad Pitt. “Golden girl gets the golden boy” there was cosmic justice after all! But we have news for you. Even though Jennifer has such affable charm, even though she attracts an audience like pins to a magnet, she is a multifaceted lady with a sharp Aquarian mind.

So “on the ball” is her acting gift, she ended up making her $1 million dollars per episode of Friends. She is, in short, “nobody’s fool”. Her Mercury, also in Aquarius, is the double whammy that clinches the deal, because it tells her, “nothing is wrong with being detached”, especially when it comes to dealing with life’s challenges, and becoming a number one winner! We are hard pressed to imagine she has Greek origins actually! Passion is certainly not her middle name when it comes to career focus. However, when it comes to love, with Mars in Scorpio, Jen is a flow of energy. She knows what she wants, and will go for it with such intensity Super Woman should be her second name. Past beaus fell like pears off a tree not only because she was fun to be around, flirty, heady and sexy, with that Venus in Aires, but she delighted them. So communicative, so “tuned in”, they had a feeling she was “one of the guys” and they could tell her virtually anything and she would still understand. It was that caring loving look, that sweet way of touching them when they hurt. Only when they got to know her did they realise there was far more to this than met the eye. Please note, the “on off” relationship with singer John Mayer, we are sure John will have realised that Jen gave up being a people pleaser light-years ago!

When she feels she feels, and she will make sure Mr Mayer knows it, she will always tell him straight what she thinks. She once said, “It is impossible to satisfy everyone, and I suggest we all stop trying!” Clearly she gets when to draw the line and will become “Ms Stubborn” when putting people in their proper place, especially if they have let her down. She is known to have a feud with her mother. She never accepted her ex model mum’s constant criticism of her looks, make up, talent and capacities, she decided it was time to get that sort of “put down” out of her life, even if it came from Mum!

Jen is a humanitarian with a generous Jupiter in Libra and she will have varied projects on the back burner regarding contributions to charities that help others. She is convoluted in keeping her private life away from the camera though, her ways of doing so are multifarious, and she is a consistent surprise to her colleagues. With her Saturn in Aries, Jennifer has always worked hard, practiced hard, and researched hard. Her early career was not easy. She pushed to get her roles, especially since she was not the usual Hollywood beauty queen. But she pinpointed success all the same. She did not listen to put downs, she never has for long! She was and is cute, she also knows how to use pronounced social skills so she wisecracks and hits the mark every time.

Her ambition has become borderline fixation, but it works! She is what she is today, an authority on communication skills and immensely popular with a wide audience, no matter how difficult her emotional life has been, or how challenged she is when it comes to intimate relationships. Jennifer is a focussed gal. She is continually motivated. With Uranus “the planet of surprises” shinning over her, we will never really know what to expect. She seems one way, and then turns around to present another different facet to her performance. She is ready to take on the show biz fraternity full on, so one thing is certain, our Jen is on the move, and do not be surprised if she presents us with a totally different type of project, something that changes our vision of her acting skills yet again throughout this year. She is indeed, a one off! And nothing will stop the flow of that talent!

Minnie Driver

Well, the fact is Minnie is no Mouse. Minnie Driver was born in London but raised in sunny B for Barbados. One could not say she was exactly born with a silver spoon in her mouth, but near to it. She probably bounced into the right family due to karmic deeds in a past life. In fact the sense is she came into this world to complete something, to put something right and her life up to now has all been about doing just that. She went to the right schools, her mother’s encouragement regarding her acting career was delivered in cartloads so that eased things up for starters. She also hit the nail on the head when she made a huge debut with the film Circle of friends in 1995 as an Irish lass who gets the guy, even though she is overweight and not exactly a looker in that film. Her performance was also noted in Good Will Hunting, so noted it got her an Oscar nomination and a gorgeous boyfriend at the time, a certain Matt Damon. Minnie is gifted, raring to go, very intense when it comes to emotional expression and rather frightening in person.

She is beautiful with a loud joking voice, a nice voice mark, but she might have a rather desecrating sense of humour and make people afraid of her next joke. Her beauty sort of shines, but it is unusual, not exactly matinee idol material. In other words she is no Rita Hayworth, but certainly a looker. So what makes her tick?  She would say at this point “come on hurry up, get to the point!” Well Minnie is one stubborn gal, she wants what she wants, and she will not balk at any challenge including dragons, wars, delayed flights, contaminated drinking water, or her own Aunt Maude, to get it. Could be due to her Sun in Aquarius. Nah, Sun in Aquarius is usually cosmic and always see’s the other’s fella’s point of view. We sense it all has something to do with the Scorpionic influence in her chart, which means she is another of those folks who “will sit by the river and wait until she sees the corpse of her enemy come floating by”. Do I exaggerate? A tad, but she is endearing and so funny, so passionate, she makes up for the rather “High Noon” side to her personality. High noon was the western where Gary Cooper actually returned back from his honeymoon with Grace Kelly and decided to fight the bad guy who hurt his friend.

The magic she weaves pulls in the guys like bees to honey “What a girl, did you see how she looked? What a great personality, what fun!” And then things get difficult when she kicks up a storm because he forgets to order the take away. She told him, she told him two weeks prior. She said, “We need to order a take away!” Then she ends up having to drive to the Chinese Restaurant herself because she is so hungry. It always ends up with Minnie having to do everything. Anyway, she would be the first to admit her relationships can get rather hooked into power struggles. Perhaps this is because when she was seven her parents got divorced and she was sent to boarding school. Not easy for any kid, but she is not one to resent her parents, she loves them with a passion. But she wants things to be in control, and nice too, so she will not allow anyone to tell her where it is at, she has to know first.

You might ask why she acts this way; the basic reason is Saturn in Taurus. This would make her fear losing those she loves, and some people just act out a storm at the fear of loss. Some get anxious and mouse like, always worrying about it. But Minnie gets over it with persistence, with this compulsive need to achieve and stand alone with that great talent of hers, shinning like a light, so people will never leave her again. She is a lovely individual our Minnie, humane, funny, warm, giving, hot and aware. She would be the first to acknowledge the above said, and laugh about it. She has a wonderful gift for self-mockery too!

Minnie is the proud mama of a son, born in September 2008 and she will have her hands full, as they will be alike as two peas in a pod. She will do well, the lull in her career will pick up. She could end up living in another country, moving from the USA to China or something of that ilk. Whatever happens Minnie will always surprise us and fill us with wonder at her lovely, open hearted face, and good sport attitude. Go for it Min!
