Analysis of Juliette Binoche's astrological chart

A Pisces Native Full of Empathy

Juliette Binoche has become one of the most recognized French actresses. She indeed won an acting award at the three major film festivals, namely Cannes, Venice, and Berlin. She also received an Oscar for Best Supporting Actress in The English Patient and the César for Best Actress for Three Colors: Blue.

The list of her awards is remarkable, as is the number of films in which she has appeared, about sixty.

From an astrological perspective, she has assets that explain this exceptional career.

Firstly, Juliette Binoche is heavily influenced by the Water element, both by her dominant Sun sign - Pisces - a pledge of inspiration and sensitivity, and by her Cancer Ascendant, which gives her a touch of innocence and vulnerability.

It is not surprising that she has an exacerbated sensitivity, as we could note by some of her reactions on the occasion of certain current events.

She can also rely on another powerful and salvific configuration: a very beautiful boomerang, a composite figure that links the Pisces trio, a Cancer Ascendant, and Neptune. This last planet ruling Pisces, her Sun sign, brings its fluidity in exchanges.

This Neptune in the 5th house corresponds to creativity, leisure, loves, and children. The planet of inspiration thus explains an orientation that has never been in doubt for her.

The highlighted Pisces bring her receptivity, a sense of poetry and image, as well as the gift of leading crowds in her stories.

In this sign, we find the Midheaven, a sector related to her career: it is in this domain, above all, where the emphasis is placed on Pisces colors. We guess the influence of Water when we listen to her or watch her in an interview. Even without playing a character, just by being herself, she lets all the various emotions that pass through her be seen on her face. Everyone recognizes her booming laugh, which contrasts with her rather serious expression.

Another characteristic of the actress, in relation to Pisces energy and Mercury, is her empathy, but also her thirst for new experiences. Of herself, she readily admits: "I am super curious by nature. Confronting different universes allows me to explore areas of myself that I ignore. What interests me is the human, as if I had an inner camera and the lens of this camera allowed me to see better," she confessed to Marie-Claire magazine at the beginning of 2022.

An Insecure Family Environment, with the Duo Uranus and Pluto in the 4th House

Speaking of her origins, the artistic sense is probably hereditary: her father was a mime and director, and her mother a sculptor and literature teacher.

Even her maternal grandparents were considered intellectuals and, as such, had to flee Poland occupied by the Nazis.

From this environment, the young Juliette undoubtedly found reasons to carry on the torch. However, it must not have been rosy every day, as after her parents' divorce, Juliette was sent to a boarding school.

While she seldom mentions it, she has had the opportunity to talk about a rough childhood, which seems plausible with one of the only two challenging aspects of her chart. A strong opposition between Uranus and Pluto in a tight conjunction in the 4th house, the family, and her cluster formed by Mars, Mercury and to a lesser extent, the Sun, all in sector 10.

Mars, Uranus and Pluto are also dominant in her chart. This configuration confirms that the tensions that marked her when she was young may have subsequently created a difficulty in balancing her professional life, while avoiding her home being too shaken up.

The Seriousness of a Capricorn Moon Strengthens Her Endurance

With a Moon in Capricorn and in the 7th house, we have the portrait of a serious woman, capable of overcoming anything, without proclaiming it to the world. She could also use her dispositions in the art of firmly holding a partnership (whether of love or business).

In cinema, she has sometimes refused stunning proposals from Hollywood – including one from Steven Spielberg for one of the characters in Jurassic Park – to prioritize more ambitious career choices from her point of view.

She has sometimes preferred auteur cinema or projects that required her to set the bar even higher, sometimes even imposing a fierce discipline on herself.

Work has also infiltrated her love affairs: Juliette Binoche has often been in a relationship with partners she met in the cinema, from Leos Carax to Benoît Magimel, and Olivier Martinez.

Let's add in passing that the presence of Venus in Taurus brings strong sensuality but allows her to remain realistic. A detail that is important for a Pisces native.

We could also add that this planet is very favorable to her, as it is in sextile with Saturn and in trine with the Uranus-Pluto duo we discussed. It is undoubtedly by following the path of her heart that she was able to rebalance her private life.

Her natal Moon in the 7th house is however attacked by an almost perfect square from Jupiter in Aries and in the 11th house. There is a difficulty in aligning her emotions with the inherent constraints of social life and a propensity to express what she feels in an exaggerated way, which can potentially lead to gaffes or situations that damage her reputation.

The Moon in the 7th house, in conflict with Jupiter, may have favored a multiplicity of love relationships, some of which may not have been conducive to her flourishing, without this taking on too large proportions, thanks to the Sun-Moon sextile in particular.

Mars and Mercury Energize the Twelfth Sign

While sometimes Pisces natives can be passive and willingly let themselves be carried by circumstances or the desires of others, this is not the case with this actress, since Mars plays a leading role, as well as Mercury.

The planet of action and that of the mind work hand in hand, allowing her to quickly move from thought to concrete action. She doesn't ask unnecessary questions, she acts, with the subtlety of her solar sign.

In summary, most of the planets in her birth chart complement each other well, in a harmonious manner.

However, we could lament a lack of Fire and Air in her chart, which makes her less ambitious or worldly than her career might suggest. Deep down, Juliette Binoche remains quite discreet, even secretive, which is in no way a flaw but perhaps an additional quality.
