Analysis of Kirsten Dunst's astrological chart

Astrology at the Service of Character Analysis

Daily news regularly puts the spotlight on all sorts of famous people. Although we are not fond of juicy information, we inevitably have an idea about a given political figure, a movie star, a Royal Highness, or a skilled sportsman.

Those well-known faces draw our interest and seem familiar to us, because we watch their successes or their setbacks day by day.

Astrology may also be considered as an interesting filter to better define their personality, and to guess whether the events they experience are confirmed by their planets' activities. Astrology does not reveal everything, of course, but using the dominants and other peculiarities of the natal chart, we can see whether the astrological portrait matches the collective image or offers unsuspected additional nuances.

After Asia Argento and Didier Deschamps, here is an article about the sensitive Kirsten Dunst.

Sun Prevailing in the Natal Chart

Kirsten Dunst

Kirsten Dunst, born in New Jersey, belongs to the category of American actresses whose European roots are synonymous with style and a promising gamut of talents. Born with the Sun in Taurus, she was very young when she became famous for her role in the film Interview with the Vampire with Tom Cruise and Brad Pitt, no less. This occurred after her debut at the age of 8 in a short film by Woody Allen.

In Dunst's case, a beaming Sun is culminating at the Midheaven (the career). Ruler of the Ascendant in Leo, the Sun outweighs all planets. In addition to this enviable position, he forms several key aspects, along with a T-square with the Moon in Leo (we shall get back to it) and Jupiter, opposed in Scorpio>.

This configuration strengthens the prevailing fixed mode in the natal chart and gives Dunst the skills of a builder. People with a dominant fixed mode often need to turn their intentions or their projects into reality. On the other hand, as far as flaws are concerned, they find it hard to adjust to changes, and they are stubborn.

T-square and Good Energy

Getting back to the solar dominant, we can say that destiny, opportunities and honours naturally come to her. According to traditional astrology, the prognostic is that she is doomed to succeed. As we can see, all this proved accurate although it needs to be qualified. Indeed, the natal Sun also displays the special demands of the T-Square pattern he belongs to. Highly energetic, T-Squares prompt to surpass oneself.

We carry on with Dunst's career in order to confirm this point. In the wake of her first steps, she very quickly accumulated prominent roles: Little Women, again with big names like Susan Sarandon and Winona Ryder, then Virgin Suicides by Sofia Coppola.

With this film, she garnered praises from the public and the critics. She instinctively knows how to alternate with more commercial movies, such as for instance Spider-Man 2, thus ensuring that her career remains well-balanced.

Ambiguous Moon in Leo in the 12th House

Dunst has several more difficult aspects. In 2008, she had to be hospitalised for depression. In an interview with the famous American presenter Ellen DeGeneres, she gave more information, and what she declared seems to perfectly fit with the challenges of the T-Square delineated above. "As an actress, you are expected to be sensitive and vulnerable. But you must also be extremely sociable and nice with everyone. It is an odd dichotomy which is too demanding for one person".

In her defence, the natal Moon, equally influential in the chart, is in the 12th House although conjunct the Ascendant axis. Despite her pride (Leo), Dunst has a hard time expressing her emotions and may be tormented by doubts.

Venus and Artistic Touch

Venus' sensitivity strongly marks the natal chart. Venus rules Taurus as well as Libra, a sign tenanted by three planets. She is posited in the emotional and intuitive sign of Pisces, which gives special artistic predispositions.

In addition to the cinema, she is devoted to music and appreciates movies which allow her to express this facet of her personality. However, it is out of the question to go any further in this area.

In short, beneath the shell of success, Dunst is thirsting for gentleness and often feels misunderstood. It may stem from the Venus-Neptune square which tends to bring about affective or artistic disappointments.

In opposition to Mars, it is most likely that she often gets enthusiastic too quickly and inappropriately. As we have seen, changing her mind might be an issue, which is an added problem.

Biography of Kirsten Dunst (excerpt)
Kirsten Caroline Dunst ( born April 30, 1982) is an American actress. She gained recognition for her portrayal of the child vampire Claudia in the horror film Interview with the Vampire (1994), which earned her a Golden Globe nomination for Best Supporting Actress. She also had roles in her youth in Little Women (1994) and the fantasy films Jumanji (1995) and Small Soldiers (1998). In the late...

Uranus Transits in 2020

Today, fortunately for her, it seems that Dunst has distanced herself from her professional activities. In the spring of 2018, she became a mother and confided that she felt fulfilled.

For almost one year, she has been experiencing the joys of private life at home, which is indicated by the return of Jupiter to his natal place in Scorpio, where he will stay until November 2018.

Slightly later, in July 2020, as Uranus, the planet of change, reaches the natal Sun in Taurus and activates the Sun-MC-Moon-Jupiter T-Square, he will rock the boat. It is impossible to describe the exact repercussions of this transit since Uranus is precisely the planet of surprises.

Nevertheless, we can already foresee that he will turn things upside down, both in the professional and the personal areas, because he awakens the Moon, the Sun and the Midheaven at once.
