Analysis of Angelina Jolie's astrological chart

If there is an outstanding star right now, it is Angelina Jolie. The first thing that comes to mind is that she seems to be a mutant or an amazon, with her frail and aloof silhouette, and her angel face.

Let's recapitulate: born in Los Angeles with the Sun in Gemini like Marilyn Monroe, Angelina Jolie seems to have been created to catch the cameras' light. Finally, Hollywood discovers its myth! And astrologers are not disappointed. Jolie's natal chart is very peculiar. Indeed, it displays almost equally extraordinary elements of strength, gentleness, sheer good luck, and instability at the same time.

The first impression given by her Cancer Ascendant corresponds to her early years, when she idolised her mother to the extent that she got on bad terms with her father and with the "wicked" society. It is most likely that she was fascinated as well as disgusted by her family, with Uranus posited in this area and sending a harsh aspect (exact square) to the Ascendant and to Venus. Thus, here is the enchantress with the most perfect features, but who does not hesitate to be a rebel, with odd self-destructive practices. Over time, she managed to form the most "United Colors of Benetton" family of the world, along with Brad Pitt. Cancer is the sign of affluence and motherhood; this is not to be overlooked. Therefore, it is logical that she wanted a large family and that she replicated a Madonna behaviour at the planetary scale. One must see her, caring for children in refugee camps, with her nice tearful glance, still beautiful despite her grey woollen scarf. But she is not pretending; she is sincere.

As everyone may guess, even without knowing her natal chart, there is more to this than meets the eye. The Cancer Ascendant, which might have shed a shadow of shyness or uncertainty at the moment of the first contact, brings forward a powerful Moon, in Aries, at the centre of a triple conjunction, between Mars and Jupiter. This creates the amazon and the Don Quixote syndromes. Because everything points towards the same direction: the Moon in Aries gives an irresistible emotional propensity for both spontaneity and anger, at the risk of losing control over deep urges. While Jupiter and Mars, hot planets, repeatedly underline the will to undertake bold and even foolhardy experiments.

Despite the fact that she looks like a doll, Angelina Jolie was meant to be tremendously successful in action films as "Lara Croft: Tomb Raider" and its sequels for instance. Once her talent is acknowledged, her natural penchants prompt her to choose creations in which she challenges men, either as an actress, playing some sort of James Bond in "Salt", or as a director in "In the land of blood and honey", a love story in warring Bosnia... The film is a perfect illustration of her repulsion-blended fascination for violence, which serves as the backdrop, but also for love. In this case, Cancer and Aries clearly overpower the other zodiacal signs, including Gemini.

Continuing the delineation of this Mars-Moon-Jupiter conjunction in Aries, in the 9th House, i.e. overseas trips, wanderlust is obvious. This configuration describes a person who travels across the world to respond to a multitude of interests and commitments which are fully and almost "manly-like" accepted. Therefore, it is not surprising that Mars in his own sign plays a key role in Jolie's astrological portrait. It is also the aspect of a reckless woman who is able to pilot a plane, putting herself on the line without thinking of the risks and the stress. Undoubtedly, Angelina Jolie is driven by adrenaline, since the Fire element is highlighted in her natal chart. She thrives amid the swirls of life. On the other hand, the lack of the Earth element, as well as the tensions Saturn sends the Moon, and the tensions Uranus sends to the Ascendant, may bring about dangers caused by her lack of pragmatism but also by unexpected events and unpredictable break-ups.

The obvious assets of her chart, her magnetism and her quick rise to fame, can be attributed to the angular position of the "good" planets, including Jupiter on the Midheaven, and Venus on the Ascendant, both planets being in exact conjunction. Jupiter showered her with worldwide celebrity (actually, involving her Mars dominant and the Moon also, as mentioned above). Therefore, despite Saturn who put a damper on her youth, she was meant to shine.

Nowadays, she is a powerful woman, many times at the top of Forbes' world rankings. Would beautiful Angelina inspire fear, with such weapons? Probably yes, even though she seems a sincere person, full of compassion and human qualities. Some people may feel that she is... too much.

Looking at the current transits, we have to say that Uranus in Aries on Jolie's triple conjunction activates the Grand Cross in cardinal signs and may be a darn challenge. Last year, when the aspect was not yet exact, she disclosed her mastectomies, and created a blast wave worldwide. Besides, her surgical operation corresponds totally with a problem of repartition among the energies of Cancer (breasts) and Aries (surgery). Here again, the actress showed pioneer spirit by taking the initiative to reveal health details in a controlled way.

In 2014, this turbulent context still affects her but starts to subside. This summer, Jupiter on her Cancer Ascendant, then his expected progression in Leo, will support her planets in Aries and act as a protection. It is most likely that Jolie will thrive, and that generous projects will abound.

Uranus reaching the Midheaven heralds a surprise, probably a social and professional change of direction in early 2015. The actress declared several times that she intends to get away from the cinema. She may do so, or in any case, she may opt for an ever increasing independence. In 2016, it is advised that she look after her health and be wary of Pluto. As far as secondary progressions are concerned, it is interesting to note that in 2014, the Ascendant axis shifts from Leo to Virgo, and may trigger a stronger need to help people instead of selfishly enjoying a fame that is, in any case, well-established.
