Analysis of Will Smith's astrological chart

The Sign of Libra Dominant

Will Smith personifies wonderfully a "Libra-style" success. In other words, this man, who has the Sun conjunct Uranus in the early degrees of this sign, and a Mercury-Venus in its late degrees, managed to impose himself without causing troubles.

His natural amiability as well as his strong charisma probably contributed a great deal to this.

When he was a child, his college teachers nicknamed him "Prince Charming". A rather nice nod to the person who will become the hero of the series The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air under his real name (Will)!

Venus and Artistic Qualities

Very Libra, Smith is an all-round artist. He is one of the few in Hollywood who were capable of winning recognition in the film and television industries, as an actor and a producer. His nice career in music must also be mentioned.

Contrary to the quite simplistic idea that Libras are "good" and harmless, one ought to bear in mind that people having the Sun in this sign are ruled by Venus, planet related to art. Beyond their physical appearance, they have a strong liking for creations, and appreciate harmony to a high degree.

The sense of staging is one of their typical qualities, and they constantly strive to achieve perfection. In addition, there are the demands of Saturn, second ruler of the sign, who gives them a touch of profundity.

Libras care for people and behave with consideration with all those who share their life, therefore, particularly with their partners.

Gemini and Mercury Facet

In the case of Smith, we can also note that Venus is conjunct Mercury, the ruler of the sign. Indeed, according to a majority of sources – his birthtime is not 100% accurate – the actor's Ascendant is in Gemini. Should this be really the case, it must be underlined that the Air element, i.e. the importance given to exchanges and to communication, is clearly dominant.

Moreover, the sign of Gemini seems to fit well with the funny and quick facets that Smith showed in many comedies without hesitating to mock his profile of the handsome guy sometimes caught into his own trap.

However, it must be repeated that, since his birthtime is not 100% certain, this paragraph is to be taken with the customary caution.

Anyway, the alliance of Venus and Mercury in Libra can be analyzed for itself; it describes a personality which matches our first observations. Indeed, an individual who has this conjunction in his natal chart does not dissociate seduction from oratorical art.

He is a person who uses a lot his eloquence, his humor, and his jokes to please, knowing that he is not a great model of fidelity. It is even truer in Libra, a sign which needs to be constantly reassured by other people's opinion in order to exist.

Northern Hemisphere and Prevailing Personal Life

Despite these character traits – that Smith acknowledges honestly – and a first marriage ended in divorce, the comedian has built a strong love story with Jada Pinkett Smith over 20 years ago. Although his wife revealed that sometimes she had to undergo sufferings because of the elements mentioned above, the family remains undoubtedly the central pillar of Smith's life.

In his chart, the majority of planets are below the horizon, particularly in the 6th House (daily life), and the 5th House (children, creation). But in any case, with only Saturn in the Southern hemisphere, nobody can say that he is extroverted.

Surprising? A little bit, but once again, it is probably owing to the very sociable image his Sun sign projects. The fact remains that his deep interests are above all related to his private life.

A Scorpio Touch for Combativeness

Let us now consider another conjunction, that between the Moon and Neptune in the sign of Scorpio and in good aspect with Jupiter and Pluto in Virgo. Therefore, behind the smile, there is a real inner richness and a complexity which are not devoid of torments.

Smith does not give up when it comes to achieving his dreams. He may have expressed this more serious register in films such as Six Degrees of Separation in 1993, in which he played a bisexual hero – sexuality being an area closely linked to with Scorpio. The critics appreciated his performance.

The actor then excelled in numerous movies of a genre pertaining to the 8th sign: Men in Black, Suicide Squad, Deadshot, in roles of the villain and a whole program, to the extent that this time, these films were not always received with perfect enthusiasm.

It is certain that, even though he probably experienced a few painful failures, Smith is a strategist with a strong resilience capacity, typical Scorpio values.

Financially also, being one of the best paid actors of Hollywood – around 80 million US dollars per film – Smith is far from being naive. Here too we find again the business acumen characteristic of this sign.

Upcoming Transits

Although Smith is a Libra, currently, he is quite unaffected by the tensions brought about by mundane planets in Capricorn. Indeed, for some time, his Sun is no more challenged by the square of Saturn, let alone by that of Pluto.

Nevertheless, he must beware of the period during which Saturn, him again, will transit the last degrees of Capricorn and will be in tough aspect with the natal Mercury-Venus duet. This will start in the middle of the winter of 2020. Given Saturn's retrogradation motion, Smith may feel this slowdown throughout the year.

This applies more strongly since Saturn will oppose his natal position. In real life, it may translate into an unusually bad or even quite grumpy mood. By the end of 2020, it will be the turn of Jupiter to put a spoke in the wheel of this duet.

However, Smith will be able to rely on the strong support of Saturn and Jupiter in good aspect with the natal Sun in early Aquarius at this period, which will allow him to offset these mixed influences.
