Analysis of Cameron Diaz' astrological chart

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 Tony Parker and Marion Cotillard, here is an article about the assertive Cameron Diaz.

Focus Astro celebrity: Cameron Diaz

Congratulations, Miss Diaz. You are blessed with a nice natal chart, very balanced and comprehensive. On the one hand, the actress is a paragon of femininity, with Venus and the Moon as her strongest planets. Although she is an amazon (we shall get back to this later), Cameron Diaz is a real woman, sensitive, feminine, and guided by her heart.

Let's remember her first striking appearance in "The Mask", in which she literally hypnotised the character played by Jim Carrey, as well as the audience. Yet, in those days, she was a mere model without any cinematographic experience. It must be acknowledged that she put up a sensational and faultless performance. Her physical aspect expresses very well her planetary influences: her rather round face with soft features, her wide blue eyes, her complexion, and her light hair bear the Moon's signature, but also that of Venus, against a Cancer Ascendant backdrop. However, her nervous and muscular body is related to her tight Sun-Mars conjunction in Virgo.

Let's recapitulate. Before all else, Cameron Diaz is a seductive person, since Venus rises at the time of birth. No wonder that she was singled out for her beauty and that she had a host of lovers. Moreover, this domineering Venus sextiles the Moon, indicating that she feels good about herself and that her upbringing was conducive to the blossoming of her femininity. She is a good friend, caring for her family and for people. But this Venus also squares Uranus, a destabilising planet which is also part of her dominants. Therefore, love affairs are important, though chaotic. She seems to enjoy picking non-conventional partners. She leaves them all of a sudden, and apparently she couldn't care less about what people think of her decisions. What a temperament!

Beneath the mask of sweetness and "lunar" humour, bordering on self-deprecation (as can be seen in "There's something about Mary", "Bad Teacher", etc.), Cameron Diaz is a woman of action. Mars even rules her Midheaven, i.e. the House of social destiny. This planet with the Sun reveals a strong-minded woman who takes care of herself without relying on people. She is also very sporty, since she needs to physically expend energy in order to find serenity. Besides, her talents were often highlighted in action films in which she also excels, such as "Charlie's Angels" or "Vanilla Sky". There, she showed her adversaries and her masculine partners a thing or two. Nevertheless, she is not a potential James Bond Girl! Indeed, she is not the type of woman who waits for her man with a languid gaze. She prefers a good surf ride or a challenge to take up...

To sum up, her general chart confirms the unwavering balance that this unconventional and straightforward actress built up. Although she sometimes gives the impression that she is slightly restless – Virgo's nervousness strengthened by Cancer's doubts on the Ascendant, with a Moon-Mercury square as a slight drawback – she still has numerous other assets. Firstly, a harmonious repartition of planets, modes and elements. Venus rising as a godsend, and few tough aspects. Jupiter in the 6th House indicates that she is wise and endowed with a strong constitution, while the Moon in Taurus gives much sensuality. Cameron has every quality one may dream of!

In the forthcoming months, she may opt for a weird career turn, as Uranus sits on the destiny axis (the Midheaven). The planet is certainly challenged during the first months of 2014, as it is the case for many people, owing to the mundane Pluto-Uranus-Jupiter T-square occurring at that time. A house removal may be a cause of concern, or conflicts opposing her private life and her work, which may become more stressful than usual.

On the other hand, the summer of 2014 promises to be excellent, as Jupiter transits her Ascendant. Then 2015 and even 2016 may offer her the opportunity to land her greatest roles. Cameron Diaz has also proven that she can perform well in art films. The planets may show the way to wider acclaim, for instance for an extraordinary film (Uranus on the MC will be well-supported in 2015 and 2016). As for secondary progressions, Venus will join the natal Sun during the period starting in 2015 too, confirming the positive outlook in the artistic and romantic areas.
