It would have been surprising if Cindy Crawford, a myth of the ‘90s, had not been marked by a sign or a planet indicating beauty. In her case, the answer is yes. Pisces shelters not only the Sun but also the Moon, ruler of the Ascendant.
We must therefore pay attention to the two luminaries, conjunct in the 12th sign. This configuration gives a very homogenous personality in which willpower and emotions are in harmony, thus increasing the influence of Pisces. Cindy Crawford is THE model, noticed when she was only 16, quietly living in the Middle West countryside, thousands of miles away from the fashion world.
Even better, her career started straight off, since the most prestigious photographers immediately guessed the potential they could get from this young girl radiating naturalness. With her auburn hair flowing like a cascade, her bright smile, and her sensually curved figure, Cindy Crawford resembled a captivating mermaid.
As recalled in Becoming, the book published on the eve of the celebration of her 50th birthday, she went through the years, slipping into all moulds. Plasticity, sensitivity, intuition and... opportunism are typically Pisces! She is clever, and she too understood very quickly that her physical appearance was a key card to success.
Before examining this facet of her character – her obvious fighting spirit – let's look at her unaspected Venus, another astrological peculiarity. Remember that it seldom happens that one of the 10 planets of the chart is not connected to at least one planet, especially when the said unaspected planet is Venus, who is never very far from the Sun and from Mercury.
In their interpretation, astrologers seem to have observed that the importance of unaspected planets is heightened and is expressed intermittently. A phenomenon Crawford shares with one of her friends, a lady killer, namely George Clooney.
Getting back to Crawford's Venus, it is probable that the planet gives her an exacerbated need to please and to charm which can hardly be expressed normally. In addition, this Venus turns Crawford into an even more romantic person, since she is a Pisces, therefore receptive, even passive or vulnerable to her partner. All this matches the essence of her years with Richard Gere. While she was at the pinnacle of her glory, and the actor's prince charming role in Pretty Woman was sending the crowds into raptures, the two stars got married in Las Vegas, drawing the attention of the world. They became the most famous couple of the time and represented the epitome of glamour.
However, Crawford failed at the very place where she fell in love. She tried to play in Fair Game, which was a bad idea. She was slated by critics, and the final clapperboard put an end to her relationship with her husband. In an interview given for the promotion of her book, she acknowledged frankly that everyone wanted to come across a love story like in movies. She added that her divorce destroyed her and made her understand that she ought to consider romantic relationships realistically.
Since we are discussing a chapter of Crawford's private life, let us underline that her second marriage with Rande Gerber brought her stability. She became able to build a family life, an important achievement for a person having a Cancer Ascendant, and more importantly, a Moon-Sun conjunction. For over 25 years, Crawford has been staging images of her happiness: breakfasts for four in her Malibu home, shopping trips with her daughter, who is following in her footsteps, and always red carpets with Rande Gerber in Hollywood.
Beyond the perfect picture, Crawford imposed herself as a wise and tough businesswoman. She owes this to a configuration which is yet ill-reputed. Mars, one of her dominants, is conjunct Saturn and forms a T-square involving Jupiter in Gemini as well as Uranus and Pluto in Virgo. This pattern radically counters the sweetness of the first features of her portrait. It may indicate a lucid and cold temperament prepared to fight. Crawford may also tend to exaggerate, to misplace her trust, and to alternate moments of impatience and natural caution.
Since her planets are in mutable signs, there is a higher risk of instability. The areas affected being the 3rd, 9th, and 12th Houses, it is mainly at the mental level that Crawford is struggling against these opposite forces. The fact that life has not always been a bed of roses shows through the apparent philosophy. Badly affected by the death of her 3 year-old little brother, beautiful Cindy committed herself very young to an NGO struggling against leukaemia. She then supported many charities, encouraged by her Sun sign.
In a different area, the model, grateful for her own success, nonetheless distrusts the fatal contact with glory. She confided many times on this topic, a way to express the T-square we mentioned.

At the end of 2015, Cindy Crawford is carrying on her world promotional tour for Becoming. She looks quite peaceful and thriving. Owing to her Sun in Pisces, the long transit of Neptune in such a busy sign is of course significant. The planet perhaps points to a more relaxed manner to experience her most prominent tendencies, her loves, and her artistic desires.
She will need to be wary of the transits which will challenge sensitive spots of her chart. Jupiter in Virgo, for instance, may warn that she overestimated the outcome of her promotional tour, because Jupiter has been opposing his own natal position and the natal planets in Pisces since the summer of 2015. He will still do so during part of 2016, a period during which his retrogradation will be strongly felt.
Moreover, Saturn in Sagittarius is most likely to thwart Crawford's projects. She will have to be patient and to learn that the passing of time, even though it has apparently no hold over her, implies state of mind changes. She will undergo such a process by the end of 2015 and throughout 2016. In 2017, most of the work will have been completed. In 2019 and 2020, numerous transits taking place in Capricorn will be very helpful.
