Rickie Lee Jones based on November 8, 1954, Chicago, IL

Rickie Lees Jones is one of my all time favorite singer/songwriters. Jones is talented beyond belief but with that often comes sorrow and hardship something that is certainly not a stranger to her. She was born under the sign Scorpio with a strong Cancer/Libra influence. On the favorable side the Jupiter Uranus conjunction in the sign Cancer in her natal chart aspects well to her natal Venus in Scorpio giving way to her creative versatility stretching from folk to jazz to R&B with little concern for any boundaries. With her natal Mercury Neptune conjunction in Libra poorly aspected to her natal Jupiter Uranus conjunction is where all the trouble begins. Deception coupled with escapism, overindulgence and severe swings back and for from the dark side to the light.
With her natal Pluto adversely positioned to her natal Venus she has probably never been all that good to herself but I do believe that a lot of her lyrics have probably stemmed from the very experiences she has faced. Rickie has her natal Moon opposite her natal Neptune which directly links to her difficult upbringing being subject to deceitfulness and probably surrounded by people who were not the best influence regarding drugs and alcohol. Rickie however does have enough saving graces in her chart to ensure that she land on her feet even when it appears that she has nowhere to go. Her natal Pluto well aspectd to her natal Mercury Neptune conjuction has always given her the will power and strength to know when enough is enough and how to remove her self from a bad situation just when you think she is down for the last count.
Rickie Lee is a talented sexy woman with a strong will to stand up again and again. She is a fighter for what she believes in and not one to stick to the rules of any game in life that she plays. She sees everything and everyone as being unique and therefore has the fortitude to allow herself and those around her the freedom to be who they are and do as they please. With her natal Mars Saturn Square her frustrated ambition gave her the desire, courage and strength to take on whatever need be to reach her goals. Nothing was too much for this amazing artist if she wanted it badly enough and that went without saying whether for good or bad she always followed her path and prepared to battle anyone who stood in her way. If you aren't familiar with her work you should pick up her new CD The Evening of My Best Day.

Jessica Lynch based on April 26, 1983, West Virginia

Taurus born Jessica Lynch has gone through quite the ordeal this year. This young devoted and trustworthy woman lives by high standards and ethics and has been put in a position that is probably very uncomfortable for her. With her natal Sun Mercury and Mars in the sign Taurus she thinks like a Bull and although she is a loyal and patriotic U.S. soldier she cannot and will not live under false pretense.
This young woman has been forced to go down a road that was paved with innuendoes and I believe that this has probably gone against every rule she was taught during her growing years. With her natal Jupiter Uranus and Neptune in the sign Sagittarius she is a soldier, a team player and a crusader that will fight for her beliefs, country and those who can't. When she was captured between March 23rd and April 1st her chart showed evidence that she was in fact injured but not raped. While transiting Jupiter was adversely positioned to her natal planets in Taurus it was favorably aspected to her Gemini Venus as well as to her natal planets in Sagittarius giving strong reason to believe that she was fortunate to have been left in good medical hands while incapacitated due to her injuries. Jessica Lynch is truthful and I'm sure it has been difficult for her to stand by watching everything get blown out of proportion. With transiting Jupiter moving through Virgo over the next ten months it is very probable that her story will continue to be a controversial subject that is embellished by all those in need of a hero but for Jessica all the implications that have gone along with her capture have changed her life forever. The little girl from West Virginia who just wanted to serve her country has ended up becoming a victim.
I believe that this whole ordeal was a mistake that was started innocently by those individual wrapped up in the moment and who have strong feelings regarding putting woman in harms way. It is easy to think the worst when facing the pressures of war. The camaraderie that builds up between soldiers can easily lead to the very scenario that Jessica Lynch has been subject to. Hopefully by this time next year she will be able to get on with her life and put everything that she has endured behind her.

LeBron James based on December 30, 1984, Akron, Ohio

So what's all the hoopla about? Well if you follow the NBA you'd know because Sports commentators have been watching and talking about LeBron for a couple of years. He's finally old enough to jump into the big league and it appears that this solid young Capricorn has done so with ease and grace.
With his natal Sun in the sign Capricorn along with Jupiter and Neptune he has the old when he's young and young when he's old Goat like characteristic that should help him stay centered most of the time. With his natal Saturn and Pluto in the sign Scorpio he will be relentless in his attempt to take the league by storm. With his natal Uranus and Mercury conjunct in the sign Sagittarius you know he can think and act quickly and that he can be a player both on and off the court.
My big concern and there always is one is his natal Venus square Saturn. Now this could cause some problems for LeBron when it comes to injuries. He is a young man with a bright future and although his chart does indicate that he appears to have luck in his corner coupled with his extreme talent there is an element that could cause problems for him especially in a few years when transiting Saturn moves into the later degrees of Leo opposing his natal Venus and squaring his natal Saturn. Hopefully his coaching staff will seek the help of someone like me to chart out the possibilities and spare this young man the grief of an injury that could take it's toll on a bright star who is extraordinarily gifted.
As for the immediate future - LeBron could face a few minor setbacks or some difficulties between now and the end of the year with Mars adversely positioned to his natal Mercury Uranus Conjunction. This can cause some irrational behavior, a little bit of a temper and maybe a slight put him in his place situation. Now anyone knowing the amazing LeBron who reads this please let him know to keep his thoughts to himself and put his energy into the game and he can and will avoid the consequence of being the new kid on the block who may not initially get his own way.
Good Luck LeBron - I'll be watching your every move.

Elizabeth Smart based on Nov. 3, 1987 Brian David Mitchel Oct 18, 1953

Scorpio born Elizabeth Smart is back at home facing her new life with renewed enthusiasm. She was abducted during her first half-life Saturn, all of us go through Saturn returns and half-life Saturn's throughout our lives but some are far more severe than others. In the case of Elizabeth along with transiting Saturn being in opposition to her natal Saturn it was also opposite her natal Uranus causing very sudden and drastic changes in her life that lasted until the spring of the following year. During that time she also faced transiting Uranus passing through her chart at an adverse angle to her natal Venus resulting in the sexual assault that she was experiencing.
Fortunately Elizabeth is strong willed being a Scorpio and also able to see all sides of any given situation with her natal Mercury being in the sign Libra the peacemaker, mediator etc. It was this very positioning of her natal Mercury well aspected to transiting Uranus that made her able to cope, put things in perspective and make the best of a bad situation. Elizabeth is smart and. has a good chart filled with faith, understanding and the ability to do whatever is necessary in order to survive. With her natal Jupiter well aspected to her natal Saturn and Uranus there is no doubt that she is very capable of holding her own.
Elizabeth had the wherewithal to turn this whole ordeal into an adventure. Instead of becoming irrational she made it work for her knowing that eventually it would end. She is an inquisitive girl and I'm sure she observed her abductor carefully. During her abduction she also had transiting Neptune adversely positioned to her natal Sun and this could have caused some confusion for her if she was barraged with brainwash tactics. I believe it was easier for her to lose herself in the whole fiasco while having faith that she would eventually find a way out.
Elizabeth is now coming into some good times and some difficult. She may be returned to her old life but it will never really be the same and throughout the upcoming trial against her Libra born abductor it isn't going to be easy for her to relive what she went through. In some ways this may be harder for her.
Brian David Mitchel's chart does indicate that he has mental problems with his natal Sun conjunct his natal Neptune adversely positioned to his natal Uranus along with his natal Mercury adversely positioned to his natal Pluto and his natal Mars adversely positioned to his natal Jupiter. This is a man who is not living in the real world; one who will take drastic measures in order to fulfill his own needs. He is very capable of overreacting and seeing things in an unreal way. This is a man who should not be left to roam the streets, not because he is violent but because he is irrational regarding who he is and what his rights are according to his God. This is a man that truly believes he was doing something through Gods words. I believe he had many problems as a child and lived in an imaginary world a lot of the time. He most likely craved attention and was a little conceited thinking that he was chosen to be great in some way.
With his natal Jupiter adversely positioned to his natal Venus this man can be charismatic when it comes to his beliefs and capable of talking impressionable youngsters and gullible adults into believing he is something he is not. All this spells trouble for the rest of society and must be put to rest for Elizabeth's sake.

Jack Black based on April 7, 1969, Santa Monica, CA

How can anyone not like Aries born Jack Black. His high energy and pizzazz has to captivate even the most difficult critic. After all even if you don't like the type of character he portrays you still can't help but gravitate towards Jack. He was born with his natal Sun Mercury, Venus and Saturn in the sign Aries making him very outgoing and eager to excel at whatever he does. Jack has a passion for life and is just trying to fit everything in to the moment.
Jack is another one of our heavy set stars that needs to listen to his doctor and take better care of himself especially over the course of the next couple of years while transiting Saturn adversely hits all his planets in Aries. Jack does appear to be able to land on his feet most of the time with his natal Mars and Moon well aspected to the complete package of planets he has in the sign Aries. Although things have not always been smooth sailing for Jack especially at an emotional level with his natal Moon adversely positioned to his natal Jupiter and Pluto he always manages to pull himself together in order to see the bright side of life. He is engaging, certainly a bit of a maniac and totally spontaneous. With his natal Neptune in Scorpio well aspected to his natal Jupiter and Pluto his built in creative imagination coupled with his well-positioned natal Mars is the driving force behind his instant responses and dynamic personality.
He is always ready to do whatever it takes and is a never-ending source of entertainment and must do kind of guy. For Jack the future looks bright as long as he takes care of his health. .

Quentin Tarantino based on March 27, 1963, Knoxville, TN

I'm sure there are a lot of people who wonder what Quentin Tarantino has that they don't have - well let us begin with this magnificent mans mind. Being an Aries to begin with and to also have his natal Jupiter, Mercury and Sun well aspected to his natal Mars is enough to differentiate Quentin. He is a mastermind when it comes to taking an idea, transforming it and playing it out to the outer most limit of the imagination. To be in Quentin's mind would certainly be a trip in itself. He is not only brilliant with this set up but he is also extremely dedicated to his art form and the people he works with. With his natal Moon opposite his natal Neptune he can play with people's emotions and twist and turn things until they are so convoluted that it works. Quentin also has his natal Moon well aspected to his natal Uranus and Pluto and this certainly helps him when he wants to broadside or impress someone that he is dealing with. He is quick, calculating yet very honest about what he wants and how he wants it to look. He is a man who is remarkably intricate in all that he does.
Quentin is extremely energetic and most definitely a bright spark in the Hollywood scene. He is truly eccentric in every aspect of his life. To have Tarantino in your corner would be any actors dream. This is a man with vision who is fearless when it comes to pushing the envelope. He has the ability to make peoples imaginations wander to a point where he doesn't actually have to use the gruesome act to portray an even more underlying sense of fear with his amazing directing and camera technique. This is a man who knows just how far to go when it comes to making movies but what about his personal life. Well his eccentricity does overflow into that area of his life as well with his natal Venus opposite his natal Uranus I'm sure that he is quite entertaining and sometimes difficult yet a fascinating man to try to understand.
He is definitely one of a kind and no matter how you slice it the film industry certainly benefits with a man like Quentin making memorable movies. I'm not a big fan of violent films but I must say Quentin has a way of shooting a movie like Pulp Fiction that allows me to get past the blood and gore an appreciate what it is he is doing. He is truly unique in his field and I must say that I am looking forward to viewing Kill Bill.

Dwayne Johnson "The Rock" based on May 2, 1972, Miami, Florida

The Rock is a Bull by Sun Sign. Born under the constellation Taurus he is built like his symbol. Although some might say he's just a strongman I beg to differ after seeing his chart. The Rock was born with only his natal Sun in the sign Taurus however it is well aspected to his natal Jupiter in Capricorn which does enhance the power of the Bull only this time it also gives him a strong silent lasting quality that I rather liked. Dwayne has his Venus, Mars and Saturn in the mercurial sign Gemini which can never hurt when it comes to a certain charm when he communicates and physical dexterity of which he has an abundance of both. To top it off The Rock also has his natal Mercury in the very agile and fast sign Aries that allows him to think quickly and make his move. His natal Mercury is also opposite his natal Uranus in the sign Libra giving him a very unique quality that makes people wander what he'll do next. He has a great sense of humor and that's a good thing considering his size.
The Rock has hit the big screen like a bolt of lightening with each performance he gives getting better. There is no doubt he has what it takes to become the next major action figure hero. I'm not usually a big fan of action flicks but I must say I did enjoy him in The Scorpion King and will make sure that I put The Rundown on my must see movie list.
I believe that Dwayne has a bright future as long as he doesn't let it go to his head and as long as he can avoid injuries. With his natal Saturn being badgered by transiting Mars, Jupiter and Uranus it can make being an action figure quite perilous especially over the course of the next few months with the planet Mars, another year with the planet Jupiter and another seven with the planet Uranus.
All I can say is be careful Dwayne and don't think that you are so invincible when you watch yourself on the big screen that you believe you can do all those stunts yourself. When bad transits hit even the best stuntmen have accidents.

Sharon Stone based on March 10, 1958, Meadville, Pennsylvania, USA

Pisces born Sharon Stone is back staring in the movie Cold Creek Manor and although not the best flick it is good to see her getting back into the game. Stone underwent health problems, marriage problems and all sorts of difficulties over the past few years which is not a surprise given the set up in her chart. Half her chart was undergoing troubled times, with her natal Sun and Mercury in her eighth house being hit by transiting Saturn for the past three years causing chronic health problems and lots of trouble with contracts, marriage and any other legal matter that she had to deal with.
Now she is experiencing personal issues while transiting Uranus moves back and forth in opposition to her natal Pluto across her first and seventh house. With this you can bet that she is certainly questioning her partnerships both business and personal. On the other side however she is also getting the benefit of transiting Uranus in a favorable position to her natal Jupiter and Neptune and this should help her with regards to her communications as well as publishing and making better choices in the future.
Sharon has experienced a great deal of sorrow over the past several years and although she isn't completely out of the woods when it comes to health and legal matters it is easy to see that if she takes good care of herself better times will be coming her way by the fall of next year. Stone was born with the major sign of sorrow in her chart. Sharon possesses a wonderful warm heart and attitude however I believe that she has been misunderstood on many counts. She will continue to go through emotional turmoil with her natal Moon adversely positioned to transiting Uranus in an area of her chart that deals with her home and family. The best thing that Sharon can do right now is to immerse herself in work. Opportunities for better projects will be available. She should also consider doing more voice over projects as well.
Sharon is a very special and rare individual who is sensitive, caring and very relentless when it comes to proving herself or reaching her goals and I doubt very much that she will drift out of the public eye any time soon. She may be unpredictable for some but if you look closely Stone is very much a what you see is what you get kind of gal. Unfortunately most people don't take the time to look. I'm not a big fan of Thriller movies to begin with but do like the edge that Stone brings to any part she plays. The movie Cold Creek Manor is probably worth renting just to see Sharon in action. Stone's chart does indicates more health and legal problems over the course of the next year so hopefully she will take good care of herself physically, emotionally, mentally and financially. Wishing you good health and happiness Sharon, I'm a big fan.

Meg Ryan based on November 19, 1961, Fairfield, Connecticut

Scorpio born Meg Ryan has been known for her cutesy parts in the film industry, which I might add she has always played in a wonderful and heartwarming manner. I mean who doesn't want to go see Meg play the girl who falls in love with someone who is a challenge. For fans who have grown to love Meg as the adorable girl next-door character a new and quite different Meg Ryan appears in the torrid thriller "In The Cut". Unfortunately it may be hard for fans to grasp Meg playing such a part and I believe that she was probably lead astray when she took this film on due to transiting Neptune adversely positioned to her natal Venus, Neptune and Mercury.
Fans aren't ready to see Meg in this type of a role nor is she right for the part. Meg plays a professor who has erotic scenes with her co-star Mark Ruffalo, who plays a police officer. Meg's attempt to cross over the line and into such a part has probably not grabbed her fans or movie critics.
Meg hasn't actually been in the media very much the past couple of years but her restless nature apparently has gotten the better of her and according to her chart I believe that she will be very busy and out there over the course of the next several years. Meg is heading into a high cycle that should bring her more fame, fortune and notoriety. It is obvious why Meg took on this role but I believe that she was shortsighted - her fans just aren't ready. She will have to take baby steps to change her typecast if that's what she wants to do..
Meg is about to experience her second half-life Saturn during the last part of next year and the first of 2005. She is probably already feeling the urge to reevaluate her direction, her life and her future. It's time for her to make some moves that will position her where she sees herself heading during the course of the next fifteen years. Meg will have to make important decisions that will shape her career and her personal life and although she may be quiet about what happens off the screen you can bet that changes are going on in that sector of her life as well.
I've always been a huge fan of Meg's work and of the way she handles herself. Meg is a class act and I'm glad to see that she is finally moving into a good cycle. So Meg put "In The Cut" behind you and give your fans what they want.

Brittany Murphy based on November 10, 1977

Scorpio born Brittany Murphy is a talent that everyone should be watching. She has comedic timing, sensitivity, compassion and she truly puts herself into any role she is given. A natural star just waiting to move into superstardom which I believe is just around the corner for this youthful yet soulful actress. With her natal Sun, Moon, Venus and Uranus all in the sign Scorpio and her natal Jupiter in the sign Cancer I believe that she has some very interesting times ahead. Brittany also has her natal Mars in the sign Leo adversely positioned to her natal planets in Scorpio and this can cause some problems where injuries and emotional upset are concerned but with it also favorably positioned to her natal Mercury and Neptune in Sagittarius she is bubbly, quick witted and a natural when it comes to adlibbing.
As much as I'm not a big fan of Aquarius born Ashton Kutcher I did catch the movie Just Married on video and realized that I had also watched Brittany in Girl Interrupted which was a very different character from the lovable bright-eyed bride. Brittany has a stretch and I hope that Hollywood recognizes just how far this amazing actress can go. She is dedicated, loyal and will do her very best. This is a girl that can be counted on to come up with the goods every time and that's not always the case when you're dealing with talent. Brittany has her feet planted firmly on the ground and she is grateful for everything that comes her way. She knows who she is and what she wants and she will reach every goal that she sets for herself over the course of the next seven years. Keep your eyes open and watch this young star hit the jackpot in Hollywood. She is so likable and easy to deal with coupled with hardworking and accommodating that she is every produces and directors dream. This girl has class and everything else required to reach the top and at the same time keep her moral standards in tact.
