I should warn you - this blog is longer than my usual ones. Better put the kettle on! I don't usually elaborate on each person individually, but Angelina Jolie has one of the most incredible birth charts I have seen in a long time. As I studied her chart, my heart began pounding at the sheer craziness of it all. How could any person be so dang insane, and yet turn her life around to become the hugely successful woman she is today? There was such an immense amount of conflicting energy going on within her. She has a stellium (4 planets) in Aries, the most macho sign of the zodiac, contrasting with her Ascendant and Venus in Cancer, the most feminine sign. Is she a veritable Lolita, or a kick ass Boudicca? The truth lies somewhere in the middle.
Brad Pitt's birth chart was interesting too, but not half as much as Angelina's. Without a doubt, he is the rock in this union. He does have one highly unusual thing going on in his chart, in that his Sun makes no aspects to any other planet, also known as an un-aspected Sun. People with this configuration tend to go it alone, do not rely on others, and value their space. He also has conflicting energy within. His Sun and Ascendant are both in freedom loving Sagittarius, but he also has four planets in the ultra-conservative, hard-working, and responsible sign of Capricorn. The way he has embraced fatherhood tells me the Capricorn side of his nature is at the helm of this union.
Angelina has both Sun and Mercury in the restless sign of Gemini. Gemini is the sign of the twins, and if ever a woman had two distinct sides to her nature, she is a perfect example. To add fuel to her already lively fire, she has a powerful Moon conjunct Mars in the macho sign of Aries, opposing Pluto, which might very well explain her fearless independent nature, and fondness for guns and knives. If that wasn't enough excitement, she has Venus in Cancer on her ascendant squaring Uranus--God help the men!--that's all I can say about that!! Not just the men, she was into women as well--not unusual for Gemini, a masculine dual sign. Boring she is not. The Venus square Uranus would indicate an attraction to unusual partners, willfulness, and a LOT of sexual experimentation.
Her interest in blood rituals may be understood by her Moon conjunct Mars in Aries (the sign of war) on her Saturn/Pluto midpoint. Early on in her life, she enjoyed cutting herself. She said that it made her feel alive (I could think of better ways). As a wedding present to her ex-husband, Billy Bob Thornton, she handwrote a message to him in her own blood with the words "To the end of Time". She had it framed, and placed above their wedding bed. She was so insanely in love with Billy Bob, she had herself admitted to a hospital for fear she would harm herself. I attribute that to all the warrior Aries stuff, conflicting with the already conflicting Venus square Uranus, and her moon opposing Pluto. Her emotions are all over the map.
As I absorbed all Angelina's astrological information, I couldn't help but think of another Gemini-- Marilyn Monroe. Both Angelina and Marilyn had troubled childhoods. Despite all her macho, independent ways, Angelina has experienced deep feelings of insecurity, and doubts about her abilities. She has Mercury retrograde, which makes her feel very misunderstood at times. In addition, she has her Moon square Saturn, indicating feelings of discontent and insecurity. Her natal Saturn in Cancer tells me she felt somewhat isolated within her family.
To add insult to injury, her moon opposes Pluto, so as a child and teenager, she would have experienced intense conflict between herself and a parent figure. I believe she had some issues with her father, which have been painfully resolved. They did not speak for years. This could have contributed to a love/hate element in her relationships with others. As a teenager, she had a morbid fascination with death, (could be attributed to her 3rd house Pluto) and entertained many a suicidal thought. Troubled-- that she was.
Then along came Brad...
Solid as a rock Brad, with his four personal planets, Mars, Mercury, Moon, and Venus all in the responsible, hard-working, and disciplined, sign of Capricorn. How on earth could he tame Angelina? For starters, he is good-looking--that helps!! And he is older--that helps too. But the real attraction comes from his Sun and Ascendant, both in the ultra charming sign of Sagittarius, which is polar opposite to her Sun in Gemini. They are polar opposites in almost every single way. All his planets in Capricorn oppose all her planets in Aries, their Sun oppose each other, his moon in Capricorn squares her moon in Aries. Her Ascendant and Venus in Cancer oppose all his Capricorn planets. They say opposites attract, and yes, there is massive sexual chemistry going on. However!!--theirs is a relationship that will require a huge deal of effort, and communication, if their love is to stand the test of time.
Angelina has no earth in her chart, so clearly well-earthed Brad grounds her, and gives her the sense of security which she lacks. Because of his Mars squaring her Moon, he will need to hold back when an argument is looming, to avoid angry outbursts. I think a big plus for their union is the fact Brad's natal Jupiter conjuncts Angelina's Moon/Mars/Jupiter/MC stellium. The generosity and benevolence he extends to Angelina re-enforces her feeling of inner security, and encourages her boldness, as far as her public image and career are concerned. So yes, take a bow, Brad!
Even though their conjugal relationship, from an astrological viewpoint, only scores 49%, there is still good reason they will survive, provided they both put in the mammoth effort required, and respect each other's differences. They are both dedicated to their children, and share a commitment to improving the world. It will take a lot to shake off Brad. He is in it for the long haul. Were it not for the children, I'd watch Angelina!! She has a restless streak...I think she is married to her work now, which isn't a problem for Brad, who enjoys his own space, and would not be a demanding spouse. Just like Beyonce and Jay Z, money sure helps to honey out any bumps in the hive!!
Until the next one!
Love,
