Tyra Banks confronts Stalker

29 04 2009

Tyra Banks has been fearing for her safety since 38 year old stalker Brady Green has been harassing her, and threatening employees. Tyra’s security has had to be tightened, and the way she lives has had to be changed. Green sent Tyra flowers, has written love notes, and he reportedly screamed death threats at her producer, stating he would slit his throat. Tyra has confronted him in court.

 What astrologically could be describing this tense and psychologically frightening time? Transiting Pluto in Capricorn 6th is opposed Saturn in Cancer 12th and both square to Moon in Aries on the M.C, a t,square configuration of Moon/Saturn/Pluto.

 

Sense of security (Moon) under threat (Pluto)

Moon-Pluto can describe a time of feeling (Moon) terrified (Pluto), and Tyra is going through some turbulent emotions. Pluto in 6th (threats to employees) and Saturn-opposite Pluto can describe our boundaries being violently violated, both planets have control issues. Tyra will be experiencing some frustration because she feels controlled by outside forces. Tyra’s personal life is currently being dominated (Pluto) by fear (Saturn). A difficult and tense t,square with her Moon in Aries at the focal point. All causing strain on her work (6th) and public life (10th) and having her independence (Moon in Aries) limited while she has been in hiding (12th).





Michelle Pfeiffer

29 04 2009

Happy Birthday to Michelle Pfeiffer! She is an American Actress who has starred in films such as “Batman” and “Scarface”. Michelle also starred in one of my favourite films with Harrison Ford ”What Lies Beneath”. Michelle played Stephanie Zinone in Grease 2, a movie she might want to forget, but I don’t think it was that bad. Michelle Pfeiffer is a very likable actress, and she is the comeback queen despite earlier films not being well received.

Michelle has quite an interesting chart, she is born in the security conscious sign of Taurus, and her Sun is hidden in the 12th house sector of the chart. The 12th house lies behind our identity and public face (Asc).  The 12th house Taurean Sun describes a need to give in practical and creative ways to society, often with a 12th house planet part of the personal life is sacrificed. The Sun placed here can also be unaware of a need for recognition, because psychologically they feel unnoticed.

Michelle found it difficult to get acting jobs after her role her in “Grease 2″ was critically slaughtered by reviewers. A director having seen the movie refused to audition Michelle for the film “Scarface”, he overlooked her (Sun in 12th). However, after being auditioned she won the part, and the movie was commercially successful.

Michelle’s Sun is disposited by Venus in Pisces (exalted) in the 10th house, Venus is in hard angle to Saturn.Obviously Michelle is stunning to look at, particularly her blue eyes. I have never been an astrologer for determining  physical appearance in the natal chart, as often they are not correct. I have seen Venus-Saturn in a few charts of women who are beauty queens, and Michelle has been “Miss Orange County”. 

Michelle’s first marriage ended in divorce because of strong devotion to work, and her ex didn’t haven’t much time for love and romance. Venus-Saturn often describes a conflict between love (Venus) and duty (Saturn). Natally Saturn describes where we need to be self-sufficient and separate, Saturn rules the 10th sector of the horoscope it relates to ones career and aspirations. The love vs duty aspect is powerful in Pfeiffer’s chart because Saturn is placed in the 7th house, which is Venus’ domain, and Venus is placed in the 10th house, which is Saturn’s domain.

Michelle didn’t want to wait around for a new relationship to have children, she wanted children immediately, and she went ahead with adoption proceedings without a full time partner. Natally she has Mercury in the decisive sign of Aries placed in the 11th house of hopes and wishes, Uranus was transiting through Capricorn in 8th at this time and squared natal Mercury, Michelle would have been feeling opinionated, decisive and rebellious (Uranus).

Uranus in 8th Capricorn can upset the ”traditional” forms of joint partnership, resources and shared values (8th), and this whole period can be unsettling yet progressive. Transiting Neptune (dreams) was conjunct transiting Uranus, and the configuration forms a cardinal t.square to Jupiter in Libra (5th) the opportunity for growth and expansion comes through her relationships with her children, and generosity extended towards them. Natal  Mercury-Jupiter does tend to jump in too soon with decisions especially with Mercury placed in impulsive Aries, and she wouldn’t wait around for Mr Right!

Natally Michelle has Neptune in 5th house, and this placement often describes fostering or adopting children, out of compassion.The planet can often describe a deep longing for a child, and there is the element of sacrifice and redemption, in other circumstances children can be taken into foster care, or may be artistically gifted. The adoption occurred in the year of her Jupiter return in the 5th house (children) this can increase your chances of children. Michelle married at this time, and also got pregnant.

Jupiter returning to her natal 5th house certainly brought children and romance. Lyn Birkbeck describes this period as promising but you can have OTT experiences. I guess it can be a time when you get too much at once. Transiting Saturn was moving over her midheaven in Aquarius conjunct Chiron. This would have been stimulating her wound of unable to fit into the status qua or being an outsider, but the transit can also define her aspirations and her need to contribute to society (Aquarius).
