Aquarian Rosa Parks

Rosa Parks was born in Alabama on February 4th, 1913. She died last week.

Parks was known as 'the mother of the civil rights movement'. In 1955, when she was 42 years old (Uranus Opposition) she refused to give up her bus seat to a white man and thus changed the course of history.

Parks was a strong Aquarian with Sun, Uranus, Mercury and Moon in Aquarius. See Rosa Park's biography at Wikipedia.

Mars: Look Up and See it Tonight

If you see the planet Mars in the sky this weekend, it will be the closest look you will have at the 'red planet' until 2018. Mars is now closer to Earth than it has ever been (except for a period in 2003) in the past 60,000 years.

Normally the Earth and Mars are 140 million miles apart, but this weekend, that's been narrowed to 41 million miles.

This weekend also features a Venus-Pluto conjunction. This can bring on intense passionate feelings and love-affairs. Enjoy your Halloween parties this weekend, they are due to be more raunchy and primal than usual.

"Astrologer" Halloween Costumes

I've found plenty of sexy witch costumes so far, but no astrologers. The image shown here is the "Pink Witch" costume available at LTM Party.

The search is on for a good photo of an Astrologer Halloween costume. Can someone suggest one?

The Planets are in Alignment for Jennifer Jason Leigh

About ten months ago Aquarian Digest portrayed Jennifer Jason Leigh and predicted this would be a very good year for her.

Leigh is an extreme Aquarian. Not only is her Sun in Aquarius, but so are her Moon, Mercury, Venus, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn and Midheaven.

She has a Sun-Venus-Jupiter conjunction at between 16 and 19 degrees of Aquarius. Jupiter was trining this conjunction for a few months this year.

It has turned out to be a very wonderful year for her. Not only did she win a Genie Award, but for the first time at the age of 43, she fell in love and got married. Her husband is the very interesting Noah Baumbach. He is seven years younger and it's also his first marriage.

See the earlier post about Leigh's birth chart and transits for this year.

Paris Hilton's Natal Chart

Paris Hilton is probably the most highly searched celebrity name on the Internet today. She was born February 17, 1981 and has a birth chart with a lot of emphasis on Aquarius. Her Sun, Mercury and Venus are all in Aquarius.

Uranus, the ruler of all these planets in Aquarius, makes a tight square to her Sun, Mercury and Mars.

Her birth time is not known, but her Moon is placed somewhere in the middle decanate of Leo.

Paris first shot to fame in 2003 when a stolen sex video of her and her boyfriend was released on the Internet. At that time transiting Uranus was squaring her natal Uranus and passing directly (conjunct) over her Sun.

She's in the news in a big way again this month (because she's called off her wedding engagement) as Uranus conjuncts her Mars and transiting Jupiter conjuncts her Pluto.

See Hilton's natal chart here. Can anyone spot something in her birth chart that would help to explain the incredibly high-profile and fascination she has maintained with the public over the past two or three years?

See more on her biography at Wikipedia.
