Fame, fame fame?

Today, I would like to share with you some indicators of fame in the natal chart.

I had the privilege of working with actors and artists and the question is always: “how do we brand ourselves so that we can become successful (famous)?

I love doing those types of readings!

We always try and strengthen certain parts of the natal chart to achieve the right public image for the person.

Now, on to some general surface level indicators of fame.

My observation is that certain points in the chart need to connect with people on a large scale. You can also see if a person is famous for their image or for something they created or invented.

Usually, the ruler of the first house is going to be high up in the chart in the 10th, 11th or 12th house.

A pronounced Neptune or Jupiter can also show connecting with the collective or building a brand or image that speaks to people on a large scale. The image of the person or the product they created.

Therefore, even if the person is shy, timid and private they can still be famous if they connect with the social moment.

I thought it would be fun to analyze several charts of famous people for indicators.

A chart like no other.

In the above chart we see very clear indicators of fame.

First, we have Neptune conjunct the ascendant. Planets in the first house always give a certain charisma and stand out to others. Neptune rules glamour, magic, mystery and the acting profession.

Neptune rising shows the person can create an image that people aspire to or become charmed by. It’s like throwing fairy dust magic all over yourself. No matter the private Self which maybe feel and be very different.

Next, we have ruler of the first house, the Sun, conjunct Mercury in the 11th house. This means the person would be well known socially and will be known for all things Mercury: They way they move when they communicate, hand gestures, dancing, singing and talking in a distinctive voice.

Gemini is playful and young…Marilyn adopted that young baby-blond persona and only when she did her success sky rocketed.

We also have Venus high up in the chart and in last degrees of Aries (sex appeal and attraction). The Venus is almost rolling towards her public image of Taurus: Feminine, sensual, warm, seductive and sweet.

The ruler of Venus, the planet Mars is in Pisces which strengthens the Neptunian influence or ability to glamour (conceal) her Venus in beauty and allure.

Sadly, we also see how Neptune in apposition to Moon-Jupiter (yet another point for fame by the way) culminates in the apex of Saturn. The T-square shows troubles at home (Saturn is in the fourth house) and a lack of inner stability.

Neptune is out of this world and needs balance. The chart shows huge Neptunian fame but little stability.

Neptune also rules other states of consciousness (drugs) and lack of boundaries with others.

A broken heart she had.

Jack white,Lindsay Lohan and Sky Ferriera:Cancer sun

You keep her in your pocket
Where there’s no way out now
Put it in a safe a lock it
’cause it’s home sweet home -The white stripes 

What did I do
to make you so cruel?
I’ve got this ache inside my heart
I know that it’s you – Ghost Sky Ferreira

The sign of Cancer is ruled by the moon which rules emotion,home and the mother. It is also the sign of fame and many celebrities and musicians have a strong cancer in their chart. The reason the moon and cancer are connected to fame had a great deal to do with the spread of ideas and emotions out into the public sphere.  Because the moon has its changing phases this people can go on from being at the top of public opinion to the bottom of shame and public criticism very easily. Cancers strength is also its Achilles heel,sensitivity that can be a power house of creativity and an angry weapon just the same. Lindsay Lohan is a great example of the feminine and raw power of a cancer female and its sexuality. A child star gone wild as the tabloids would have it. Cancers are sensitive souls with an unhealthy tie to the family  that can result in a great need in independence with an obsessive emotional dependence at the same time. Acting is a natural talent as is being popular through the media. But deep emotional wounds and addictions are common as well. Cancers are shy and crazy,sexy and androgynous,mothering and distant-all in one. depending on the rest of the chart of course. Jack white has hes sun placed in cancer and his connection to women and family, in his lyrics an anger and a bond to the feminine is evident. For some reason the connection to babies is strong in those with a cancer sun or moon and yet cancer females tend to reject that side more then not while the males don’t. Cancers can also try and deal with their emotions with shopping,spending money or drinking. As children they are painfully shy but as they grow up and stop being a baby (usually in their 30s) they are powerful people with ambitions that may seem surprising to those who don’t know them well. They are great friends to have and very loyal,but sometimes tend to be too influenced by their environment and friends which is okay as long as its healthy and nourishing to them. Music that moves from a gentle ballade to a rock anthem is the ultimate cancer mix.
