Analysis of Bruce Willis' astrological chart

Around 1985, when Reagan was ruling America, the popular crime series Moonlighingt saw the emergence of a strange comedian who had an ordinary – nevertheless so charming and attractive – look, who soon endeavoured to save the world in his films. His name is Bruce Willis, of course!

Although he starts in highly-charged adrenaline roles, the actor has nothing in common with people like Sylvester Stallone or Arnold Schwarzenegger for example. It seems that something in Willis prevents him to take himself too seriously, and this is probably the reason why we remember cult answers such as "No kidding?! You think that I'm calling to order a pizza?" when he hears "Whoever you are, this frequency is for emergencies only" in Die Hard - Cristal trap. Or also "When will I be entitled to have a normal Christmas, me? With Christmas tree, tinsel, and turkey stuffed with chestnuts. But no, one feels so comfortable in an aeration pipe", he mutters in Die hard 2.

We rapidly understand that it is in the guise of a basic but finally good-hearted citizen that he remains the only person capable of carrying out impossible missions in which he seems to specialize.

However, we must avoid the trap of easy caricatures: Bruce Willis is a multifaceted man, just like his complex natal chart. He is a Pisces, and the Sun is a quite obvious dominant because he is exactly conjunct the Descendant. The sign's humanistic and obliging nature is all the more highlighted since the Sun is in the relationship axis, and the Ascendant is in Virgo. We know that the Virgo-Pisces couple is service-oriented. When he is serious, Bruce Willis totally embraces the need to be useful, in all modesty and with shrewdness rather than with big muscles. Indeed, Virgo brings a Mercurian touch which endows the Sun with cleverness, loquacity as well as great business acumen.

At 60, the comedian remains one of the most influential Hollywood celebrities. A nice career for a little guy born in Germany, son of a serviceman! This is perhaps what explains that he embodied so well characters able to use weapons...

In this regard, his natal chart has a few extra features indicating that he played "good" heroes instead of born killers. In addition to the Sun in Pisces, the Water element is prevailing, which confirms Bruce Willis' capacity for empathy. Moreover, a beautiful trine in Water signs is linking the Sun to Uranus in the 10th House (the career) and to Saturn in the 2nd House (money). Whereas the downside of Water may be an uncertain or impressionable personality, in this case, the two collective planets are positively connected to the Sun and endow with an amazing ability to structure oneself. This is how Willis combines traditional and progressive values.

Along the same lines, Aquarius stands out as one of the dominant signs, with the Moon and Venus, two planets pertaining to womanhood or femininity, regardless of the gender of the owner of the chart. We now look at his affective profile, which is fairly easy to grasp even though it may not be too easy for him to cope with. On the one hand, Bruce Willis is open-minded and is attracted by a nonconformist woman, for in general he is in favour of their emancipation. On the other hand, he remains an authentic and traditional male, with Mars in Taurus describing a robust temperament, tough, and resisting changes. Mars quite clearly opposes Saturn, which suggests a potentially irritable temper, or mood swings. Especially considering that Venus forms a T-square with these two planets. The comedian is not aware that his inner contradictions may sometimes be the cause of his difficulties with women.

In any case, Bruce Willis has a very varied and rich chart offering numerous orientations. Career-wise, he is one of the most profitable actors in the history of cinema. With a typically Pisces intuition, the films he chose turned out to be blockbusters. This is not at all surprising, because his Neptune is strong in the 2nd House (money), ruler of the Sun, but above all, trine the Midheaven. So many clues prompt to predict wealth: money is flowing in literally.

As we analyse his recent transits, we take the liberty of going back to the summer of 2013, when the heaven emphasised the Water element with Jupiter in Cancer, Saturn in Scorpio, and Neptune in Pisces, which lasted until the next summer. This is what enabled people having the Sun in these signs to be unharmed during the first semester which was difficult for everybody in 2014. Bruce Willis' natal grand trine was activated by transits. In astrology, a transit reproducing a natal aspect rouses the natal potential. For the actor, this period was auspicious, because he was blessed with his 5th child in the spring of 2014, and at the same time he made interesting business deals.

He is currently experiencing relatively calm days with few important transits. Jupiter transiting Virgo from the summer of 2015 to the next will offer him the opportunity to assess his situation. Jupiter travelling on his Ascendant is more promising since then, and may bring about personal achievement both in his profession and as an individual. The progressed Midheaven on his Pluto, in exact conjunction for more than a year, heralds his powerful influence in the world of cinema.
