Analysis of George Clooney's 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 Barack Obama and Uma Thurman, here is an article about the seducer George Clooney.

Focus Astro celebrity: George Clooney

If there ever is a seducer who has the power to charm a majority of women - or even men - of all ages and origins, it is certainly George Clooney. Let us see whether he owes this ability to his natal chart, or to... "What else?" This has become a cliché joke that he would probably not disown, since in this area, George Clooney bears the hallmark of Taurus: his Sun conjunct Mercury endows him with the sort of intelligence that characterises this sign, going right to the point, but also capable of irony. This Sun-Mercury combination also forms two harsh aspects, a square to Uranus, and an opposition to Neptune. Therefore, it can be assumed that his inner self is not as impassive that the first image he projects. Uranus' instability as well as Neptune's vagueness enrich his artistic palette but may not help the decision-making process in his real life. To become famous, he probably had to muster his resources by using his common sense, always with a smile. In addition, he had to wait for a long time before he gained recognition for his work. Indeed, Taurus' first steps are sometimes painstaking, but once success is achieved, it is long-lasting.

If today the public is so fond of George Clooney, it is probably thanks to the Ascendant in Pisces. Taurus adds a touch of humanity, empathy, and even sensitivity to his personality. It is not surprising that the role that changed his life is that of a physician - a Pisces profession – and enabled him to shine in the series "ER". Moreover, the Taurus-Pisces association offers him a powerful Venus feature, since Venus is in domicile in Taurus and in exaltation in Pisces. This brings us back to Neptune, ruler of Pisces, and considered by astrologers "the higher octave of Venus". Therefore, the actor is twice Neptunian, like numerous singers, comedians, and painters. Venus and Neptune alone may depict an overly submissive or weak personality, but in Clooney's chart, the duet expresses a completely different tonality. Indeed, Venus is in Aries, and Neptune, in Scorpio. The rulership track leads to Mars, who therefore gives his hues to the general background, since Mars rules Aries and remains the second ruler of Scorpio!

Let us keep on unwinding the thread to see where Mars is posited, since he also describes virility in men's charts. The answer is a flamboyant Mars in Leo! This is an additional indication of his sex-appeal, but also of his quiet domination over his Hollywood colleagues. Without doing anything, or better, without seeming to do anything, handsome George succeeds terrifically, like in Nespresso commercials. Besides, it is no surprise that he was chosen as an ambassador by luxury brands, because owing to the Taurus-Pisces influence, he is an easy and pleasant partner; furthermore, with his Virgo Descendant, he is rigorous, while Leo gives him a strong taste for beautiful objects.

We shall end with the last major facet of this consensual personage. His Mars in Leo is in exact opposition to the Moon, tightly conjunct Saturn, and conjunct Jupiter with a wider orb. Although he quickly becomes infatuated with the first gorgeous woman passing by, especially if all eyes focus on her – Venus in Aries, Mars in Leo – George Clooney never gives himself over, or almost never. As a sheer Saturnian, this Don Juan conceals a melancholy and a quest that seldom find a solution. Actually, his chart may even suggest an old bachelor.

On the other hand, Taurus blending with Mars in Leo and Saturnian hues highlights his sense of responsibilities and commitment. However, in daily life, this may reveal a not so easy character. He did often mention his "best friend", who for quite some time was a little pig!

In 2013, with transiting Saturn opposed to his Sun, it is most likely that George Clooney feels that he suddenly aged. But this aspect is moving away and will be replaced in 2014 by a nice constructive trine from Pluto in Capricorn to his natal Sun: resistance and sex-appeal will stick to his elegant trousers. Moreover, he will get by fine, despite the troubled context in 2014. The summer will even be quite auspicious, since Jupiter will aspect his Mars. A very good omen for action-oriented roles...

The next change may occur when Neptune crosses his Ascendant, and when Saturn transits his Midheaven in early 2017. The horizon will slowly be transformed and will enable him to fulfil his aspirations. A quick glance at his recent progressions provides additional information: the progressed Midheaven was conjunct his Jupiter around 2010, 2011, and 2012. The zenith of his professional success? This is to be compared with Neptune and Saturn's forthcoming transits, and might herald deepened personal values in this new part of life.
