Britney Spears – Astrology Profile

How can anyone try to understand someone who can’t understand herself? Astrologers can at least try to scratch the surface and glimpse into what it is that may trigger Britney Spear’s extremist behaviour and radical actions. Why, for instance, is she unable to stay on one course very long?

With the Sun, Mercury and Uranus all close in Sagittarius, for Britney there is just no curbing her restless, hyper-active side. She needs to be constantly on the move in a life that is punctuated by bizarre change and upheaval.

It will have been her Sagittarius impulsiveness that led to her wedding in 2004 that lasted 55 hours, ending with an annulment and her Sagittarius desire for spiritual growth that led to her involvement in a Kabbalah Centre. With Jupiter in Scorpio, she will be fascinated with the mysteries of life. Sagittarius forever searches and rarely stays put; she publicly left the religion in 2006. Britney’s divorce from her second marriage was finalised in July 2007.

Making plans for the future and committing to anything can be a nightmare for someone with such a strong desire for freedom and independence as Britney. What’s more, there is a lot going on in a very small area of her chart with many planets clustered together, for instance the Sun, Mercury, Uranus and Neptune all in her third house of communication.

This can all be fantastic, exciting and exhilarating for her during those years when transits make positive links to her birth planets, one after another. But not so much fun during those phases when transits are stressful triggering her erratic, excitable and changeable side.

So life is fast, furious, fun and invigorating on the one hand but like an out of control whirlwind at other times for this multi-faceted singer. Because, remember, when Britney undergoes tense aspects, it’s not just one planet that will be affected, but all those that are close to it and all often very quickly.

Britney’s life is exciting and she has a lot of positive qualities. Mercury in Sagittarius highlights Britney’s open-minded nature. She loves a challenge and has energy, talent and sex appeal that fascinate young girls, teenagers and an older audience. Here’s someone with the X factor, that special quality that fascinates people. So where’s the problem? Her dilemma is: she just can’t seem to stay on the one course long enough to make anything stick. When either her own behaviour or circumstances just seem to grab her and fling Britney in the opposite direction to the one she wants to go in. She is versatile, she is clever and she will find a way through her current problems because as restless and rebellious as she may be, Britney can also be determined.

For a wee while longer there will be confusion and trying to find the source of all her problems will be like trying to find a needle in a haystack. What Britney needs to do now is put the past behind her and look on the future as a blank page. She can never escape her past but she does not have to let it haunt her forever. Over the months ahead Britney will be determined to take responsibility for herself and her actions. If she can grasp and hold onto the restraint and self-control shown by Mars in Virgo, it could well be that the worst of this current negative phase is over, and the months ahead will bring the respite she needs to recharge her emotional, physical and spiritual energies.

Ozzy Osbourne

Deep down within the shadows of Saggy sun sign Ozzy Osbourne sits a “Che Guevara” sub personality. A revolutionary fighting for justice, for the working man, for the expression of subterranean feelings. His outrageous “acting out” in his hard psychedelic rock days was an “up yours” statement to the ruling classes whom as far as Ozzy was concerned were just plain repellent! A difficult childhood  in Birmingham, when he had severe learning difficulties, and felt humiliated in class, probably made him swear he would stand up to the authority figures who had always made him feel so insignificant. His Mercury also in Saggy would have wanted Ozzy to hold his finger up at hypocrisy, small minded thinking, and limited perceptions of life. The karmic lesson in inherent in all this would be to overcome his lack of self confidence and reach out for his view of the truth. His needed to push the boat out regarding his own perceptions of art and music, for how could he speak of the darker, more complex sides of human existence if he knew little of them himself?

Sagittarians are not known for their self control but for their charisma, they can be excessive, immensely humorous, and consistently outrageous. Jim Morrison of the Doors was a Saggy, as was Jimmi Hendrix, both were rebels against the status quo and both died of excessive drug overdoses. So it was clear Ozzy needed structure and order to continue to keep his show on the road. In fact his earlier shenanigans as a heavy metal artiste were due to a “Rock Hero” lifestyle and extreme performance stress, resulting in alcoholism, drug ingestion and wacky stage pranks. You see no matter how nutty our friend might seem, and was, and sometimes still is, we repeat, he is a Sagittarian, the Archer, half man half horse galloping across the plains, and in Ozzy’s case not knowing exactly where he was going. And guess who gave him the emotional steadiness he so needed to see direction? His wife Sharon of course.

That destined meeting with his soul mate was organised by his Moon in Capricorn. Ms. Moon wanted emotional stability for our friend, wanted to make sure that lines were drawn around his unbalanced lifestyle. Ozzy’s Venus in Scorpio would have been nothing other than devastatingly attractive to the female of the species when he was a hip young rocker. Female fans and rock groupies would have been falling at his feet. Mars in Scorpio would have assured that sexual charisma, that powerful capacity to live to the hilt, that passion, that huge energy and original talent. Sharon took one look at him and knew she had found the man of her life, but he was a wild man, and they had a wild relationship. Shindigs were the order of the day. Plates flew, they beat each other up, and she never let him faze her. All she could do was manage his career, as she fell more and more in love with him. It was Sharon who kept him on the straight and narrow when he was sacked by her dad from Black Sabbath due to excessive substance abuse. Sharon picked up his career and threw it into the media light, Sharon who stood by him when the lyrics of his song “Suicide Solution”, were blamed for two American teens taking their own lives. 

His excesses could be nominated borderline depravity by some. Certainly the American Christians scorned him, and claimed he had dealings in the black arts, and worse. He once shot all his family’s pets “I was taking drugs so much I was a wreck. The final straw came when I shot all our cats. We had about 17, and I went crazy and shot them all. My wife found me under the piano in a white suit, a shotgun in one hand and a knife in the other” In fact his deep need to express himself to a mesmerized audience, accounted for the “bat” incident, when he picked up what he thought was a rubber bat thrown on the stage by a member of the public – it was a real bat, and it bit him! Yet now in the 21st century, Jupiter in Capricorn, the beneficial Jupiter that has been running after him all his life, has taken our Ozzy in hand   This kind of Jupiter will make sure he is a family man, devoted to his wife, so much so the thought of losing her sends him into fits of desperation and tearful sobbing. That his endearing, rather bemused role as the father on the hit show The Osbournes conquers the hearts of millions, when he becomes everyone’s favorite, good bad guy.

When he was invited to the White House Correspondents’ Association dinner, President Bush noted Osbourne and jibed: “The thing about Ozzy is, he’s made a lot of big hit recordings – ‘Party with the Animals’, ‘Sabbath, Bloody Sabbath, ‘Facing Hell’, ‘Black Skies’ and ‘Bloodbath in Paradise’. Ozzy, Mom loves your stuff!” Finally in his old age, Ozzy has won over the teachers who did not believe in him when he was a kid with learning problems. Okay, so his health is no longer a hundred percent tops but he has finally hit the massive, big time. He had his first number one UK hit singing that Black Sabbath song “Changes” with his daughter Kelly after his motorbike accident not so long ago. And currently he is one of the richest men in the UK. The awards keep rolling in due to the bright rays of kind old Jupiter, so he really need not look back, not unless he wants to of course! Over the next couple of years Ozzy will still be striking out in new directions, following his guiding light Sharon, who that stubborn Capricorn moon so wanted him to meet all those years ago. We can only say “Life begins at 60 Ozzy!” and your life is a very unique and precious one!

Richard Bacon

Richard Bacon is the kind of guy one would have had a massive crush on at high school, I mean he was so handsome as a kid, and still is, and such a catch with that refined, middle class upbringing. His Dad is a solicitor, his mum Governor of his ex primary school, a more respectable mainstream background a man could not have… and yet this is the guy who charmed the British public on Blue Peter, and shocked them when he was caught sniffing coke. The case caused a furor, and he was immediately and loudly sacked. But, notwithstanding all that finger pointing, all that scandal this guy is a survivor whose good looks and utter charm won through and convinced the world that the drug incident was but youthful folly. He is now a well-respected TV personality and certainly has us galvanized when he preens the screen with that effervescent charisma and sexy vibe.  

Blame his charm on Sun and Mercury in Sagittarius, Mr. Sagg is inclined to shower beneficial vibes on those born under his friendly rays, and our mate Richard is no exception to this rule. Add communicative Mercury, also in Saggy, and we have an openhearted approach coupled with a tendency to have people eating out of his hand in five minutes flat; it is amazing to see actually. May be his moon in Libra has something to do with his popularity. It will make his physical demeanor harmonious, and he will pull the ladies like bees to honey. His heart is open, even if somewhat resistance to commitment. He is married to Rebecca McFarlane, but we sense previous to this loving relationship he had a rather difficult emotional experience, that could have been karmic and might have caused him some pain.

Venus in Libra will make him look for harmonious ways in his partners, they would need to mix and match to his rhythm, to dance to the same tune. He does not go for loud-mouthed asides and foot stamping, he needs peace, and would want his environment to be ordered and harmonious, Feng Shui would do him fine, and a beautiful lady smiling at him more often than not also. But be aware that no matter how much Mr. Sag has blessed our hero, he does possess a rather off beat tendency to put his foot in it. Frankly, he might need to curb his patter now and then! He was noted for dropping a famous clanger when presenting Top of the Pops. He quipped about a band as being a “big, fat melting pot of talent”, Ouch! But above and beyond his occasional foray into controversy, he has done well hosting The Big Breakfast, Back to Reality and presenting radio shows on BBC and Capital FM. Please be aware Mr. Bacon is not just a pretty face, Mars in Gemini will have made him down as an ambitious go getter, using that overwhelming charm to cut to the chase. In fact he has an energy overload going on, he is active and proactive, chatty and charismatic, and he can keep going for hours with quick repartee and a laugh and a joke.  

He is crushed if someone criticises his stance though, and could be prone to sulking in a corner at the drop of a hat! But he is not one to nurture resentment; he moves out of bad vibe scenarios pretty quick since “glum” is not good for publicity. But what makes this man so able to pull back from the edge, and skip on to a successful career? Few could have rebounded from the BBC Blue Peter incident with such aplomb, if you think about it. Well, please note that Jupiter in Aries factor!  It will cover him with honor in the midst of ruinous times. You see, Jupiter’s bright light will consistently encourage him to avoid the distressing, and cultivate an optimistic viewpoint, standing up for the good and never lingering too long over what went wrong in the past. In fact this man prefers to concentrate on what is right, and how he can make things even better. Somewhere, deep within him, there is an inbuilt wisdom that knows it is a waste of time “crying over spilt milk”, due, in our view, to rather “old soul” qualities. Yes, whether you believe it or not, this gentleman has incarnated on planet earth so many times he knows the score backwards!

All due to that true node in Scorpio, which will gift him with a certain spirituality a certain wisdom and use such gifts to improve his personal communications. He will have realised that giving excessive important to the five senses, could lead one down the path of iniquity. He has a grip on the more profound aspects of his personality, you see, and is well aware of how to manage his inner life so that he continues a successful life path. Venus makes him a bright soul, a true life traveller, unafraid to push the boat out until he is on the high seas. But our friend needs to understand that he will always be safe, and he will never be in rags, living in a box somewhere.  He just has to cultivate a deep faith, knowing that he will always be protected by a loving guardian angel, who has his best interests at heart. This year sees him discovering true meaning to existence; he will be starting a new cycle, so some aspects of his present lifestyle could be coming to a close.  No matter how hard this, be rest assured he will win thru and find himself in more up beat situations in 2010.  He will also feel a need for freedom of expression, not only in his career but also in his personal relationships. So God bless you Richard, you are an inspiration and our one and only golden boy!

Don King

Every man has a good side, he might be outrageous, controversial, even immoral to some degree, but perhaps he loves his wife, his partner, his children so intensely he would die for them, sacrifice his all for a friend, or a parent. In any event, something positive drives him forth in life, no matter his reputation or his philosophy. And so it is for Don King, who is indeed the “King” when it comes to Boxing Promotion, a “larger than life” gentleman who has reacted to life defending a panoramic vision with somewhat original, even dubious actions. Born in Cleveland, Ohio, USA, an OTT Sagittarius, even his early reputation is puzzlingly controversial, he is rumored to have run an illegal book making business, and was condemned for murdering two men, one to defend himself from theft. The other was a second-degree murder for which he served four years in the state penitentiary. There are whispers that he has an involvement in organised crime!  Interestingly in the 1997 movie The Devil’s Advocate, he played himself!  Add these other facts to his list of things to do 1) he has been in hot water with the IRS and 2), there is an interesting blend of astro in placements in his personal sky, which could explain some of his more exaggerated actions. Let us be clear here, he is virtually guaranteed to keep that colorful vibe ablaze for years to come.

His Sagittarian sign pushes him to acting “OTT” on a regular basis. One could compare his energies to a stereo blasting to kingdom come. Being a Sagittarian does excuse some of his major eccentricities we hasten to add. One imagines him galloping across the plains, his “gravity defying” hair to the four winds, an old style warrior on his way to storming a city. A showman “par excellence”, he pushes himself, and everyone else around him to the max – no small time, small print, small minded thinking for this guy. Remember, he was a lightening bolt when it came to managing such boxing stars as Mohammed Ali, and what he says goes every time. Ali filed a lawsuit against him incidentally. He has promoted Mike Tyson, Julio Cesar, Cavez, Mike McCallum, to name but a few. Not always considered “tactful” in his dealings with these stars, some have even filed lawsuits against him, for varied perceived misdemeanors. His personal life could be deemed spotless however. He is the “Padrino” to his three children, numerous grand children, friends and business associates.

So at this stage you will be asking what makes this man tick?  We are prompted to answer, Karma, cause and effect, past lives manifesting in this one, and full on too!   Mercury in Capricorn will make him unsurprisingly conservative. In fact with Mr. Quick Silver nibbling at his heels, encouraging him to be rather closed minded, it is somewhat of a miracle he endorsed Barack Obama in 2008. But that mind of his is also very in tune, pushing the right buttons to dominate any major shenanigans, or off centre show biz escapades with dexterity. He will continue to organise fantastic sports events, but also to control and rule.  He is not one to give into moments of weakness or self-doubt. Venus in Capricorn does not show him up as a Mr. Romantic. He will be inclined to hang on to his woman, old-fashioned style. The “Mrs.” needs to make sure he gets his three meals a day, that his shirts are washed and ironed to perfection, and that the servants do his bidding. He expects her to be part of his business plan, the centre piece in a realistic partnership, especially since the rest of the world will be trying to get a piece of their pie! He will do anything he can to help a loyal friend though, move mountains for them in fact, but those who puts “spanners in his works” better watch out; he is not that forgiving, not really. But if you met this awesome gentleman in person, you are virtually guaranteed to be charmed.

His Mars in Sagittarius will make him a thrill a minute, so much fun he can tell a joke and have you holding your sides, gulping with laughter. He will probably talk about his next big fight, his adventurous business interests, his family trips, his meeting with international “movers and shakers”. Forgive him if he shouts, it is probably because he does not agree with one of your more radical ideas, it is just his personality, a varied mix of aggression, sympathy, humour, and sheer bullheadedness. However what adds to this intriguing picture is his north node in Aries. Boy oh Boy, when this man gets mad, it is better to be a few thousand miles away. An Anger Management Course would not go amiss, but we doubt if Mr. King would pick up that particular tab. Once the storm passes, he is the lovely charming debonair senior we all know and love. But it has to be said; most of his relatives will make sure they have attended a Judo or wrestling course, Joking aside as outrageous as this man he is far from wicked, his actions are sometimes scandalous, frequently excessive but he is a gifted individual who has the capacity to entertain thousands of people with his sparkling showmanship!  

This guy will be going through a bout of structural change to his mental processes over the next couple of years. He will need to do a few “about turns” that will ensure a change in his way of “doing business”. Of course retirement is out of the question, but travel is on the cards as new opportunities pop up for him. He might buy a couple of philosophy books, try and recuperate some higher thinking. Certainly this outrageous, extreme, sometimes shocking gentleman will continue to entertain us. So click into your seat belts folk! You are in for a fun ride…

Christopher Biggins

Well, if we did not know better we would say that our Mr. Biggins is a little bit of a rascal but what else can one expect from a “simpatico” Sagittarius? He is an instinctive entertainer, could not be anything else with Uranus in Gemini and please realise he cannot be asked to conform to the status quo, No way! Yes, Mr. Biggins would not be averse to swinging on a high wire with a plate of spaghetti on his head, as he is able to communicate in the most diverse of ways! We love him because he is not just a fun guy with a moon in Gemini who likes to try out everything and anything. We love him and his friends love him because he is a hub of conversation with a capacity to talk the “birds off the trees”.  In fact, we wonder what is he going to say next and above all what is he going to do next? We are so intrigued because we suspect there is more to him, something deeper, something unfathomable.

Okay, yes, he would balance a plate of chips on his head whilst playing darts and taming a tiger all at the same time, he is that innovative! And yes, to keep his restless, complex nature on the boil you are certainly not advised to ask him to sit in a corner and read The Times, he would cut a hole in it and grin at you thru the gap! But let us not be fooled, he is more than all that, deep, deep down. Since Jimi Hendrix and Ludwig Van Beethoven both had Mercury in Sagittarius, as does our friend Mr. Biggins, we can expect anything other than genial originality flavoured with a certain unpredictability, a certain inner light hearted anguish, a certain need to express that creative push and those frustrated feelings when he cannot do so to his best ability. With his Venus in Scorpio he will not let you into his private court until he has assessed you from head to foot. He will take his time to see whether you can cut his grass or you are just “pretending” to.

When he sees you are humane, kind and not prone to stabbing people in the back he will make you his friend virtually for life. An interesting fact to note is that with silver Mercury in fun loving Sagittarius he could be a borderline genius! Yes, although he would scoff at this affirmation and quickly dye his hair another colour to prove it, he is a very clever man indeed. He is not a rocket scientist that is obvious, he would want to climb on the thing and fly to the moon on it but someone who has a very spatial view of the universe and the life forms teaming in it. One would wonder whether he has ever had a “meeting of the third kind?” He certainly has this unique take on the mysteries of the human brain! Neptune in Libra makes him a humanitarian, a visionary with high hopes for humanity. His capacity to relate to children is a case in point because they are the future of humanity of course! But Neptune in Libra also makes him a free thinker. His forehead his high and his visions are expansive.

He is open to all sorts of explanations regarding reality, the Quantum Theory, the String Theory, any theory other than a bearded God sitting on a cloud ruling over us all. Mainstream is not his drift even though his faith is deep. He realised at some point he would heed the call of the wild and follow an inspirational command from the Fates. You see, this man knew he had a destined path to make ‘em laugh from an early age. Perhaps because he felt removed, even isolated from his fellows. Unlike most of us, he sensed there was something more, pulsing under appearances and galvanizing his restless attention.

He is a curious man, he sometimes muses upon the dire strait of humanity, why things works, why they don’t, etc and it makes him grind his teeth. To ease his mind he will have us rolling in the aisles to forget, with him, the injustices of existence. But be not fooled, under that madcap exterior when he believes in someone or something, he is committed, and this makes him a strong friend, ally and love partner. The only low note is when he cannot communicate, when he feels his intentions are misunderstood, when he is judged harshly by those he cares for, he could go into his room and shut the door for a while feeling love is disappointing after all. But he also knows, and we thank his Pluto in Leo that he does, that eventually he will just have to express himself again, no matter how he is judged or what people say about him.

His life is all about communication, and he is our surprise healer, touching our souls with his hilarious perceptions. He will be involved in humanitarian projects, especially around September 2009 when he will realise that he wants to help others more, especially sick children. He could get involved in some very interesting show biz activities around these charitable activities too, and his extravagant input will be very much needed! His life is reaching an apex this year, he will find a new door opening, a letting go of the past, and his show biz experience will stand him in good stead in a series of new creative projects. We will watch him with much affection anyway, and of course our avid curiosity. One thing is certain about the unpredictable Mr. Biggins, we know for certain he will continue to makes us laugh!

Britney Spears

The glyph for the sign Sagittarius depicts an archer’s arrow slung on a bow, symbolising a need for direction and movement. Britney could never be content sitting still. She will always need to believe in something and have new goals to work towards; the arrow will continually take her to greater and greater heights.

Mercury in Sagittarius highlights Britney’s open-minded nature; she will always look at the world in a way that makes sense to her; she loves a challenge and her optimism will take her far.

Britney has popular appeal. She has energy, talent and sex appeal that fascinate young girls, teenagers and an older audience making her a Household name. With the Moon in Aquarius and Mercury close to Uranus she values her independence and won’t like being told what to do by others. She has courage and daring and a special quality that fascinates other people but there is anther side she keeps well hidden. With Venus in Capricorn linking with Saturn, she has a deep need for material and financial security. She will work hard and she will play hard too. Finding a partner who meets with her high expectations will never be easy.

It will have been her Sagittarius impulsiveness that led to her wedding in 2004 that lasted 55 hours, ending with an annulment and her Sagittarius desire for spiritual growth that led to her involvement in a Kabbalah Centre. With Jupiter in Scorpio, she will be fascinated with the mysteries of life. Sagittarius forever searches and rarely stays put; she publicly left the religion in 2006. Britney’s divorce from her second marriage was finalised in July 2007.

Her dedication to her work and the energy she puts into making this a success can be seen in her Mars in Virgo. A link with Neptune suggests she can get quite obsessive about her aims; she also has an addictive nature which will take too easily to drink and drugs. She should strive for balance and moderation.

Britney hasn’t had an easy time of it these past few years with headlines scrutinizing her marriage and her abilities as a mother. With Uranus hitting her natal Mars and Jupiter linking with Saturn, the bad press is likely to continue and legal pronouncements aren’t likely to be in her favour. Her health will be a cause for concern in the late summer of 2008. Conflict and clashes will continue throughout the year while the start of 2009 will also see the beginning of an amazing transformation in Britney.
