Analysis of Gisele Bündchen'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 Angelina Jolie and Stephen King, here is an article about the top model Gisele Bündchen.

Focus Astro celebrity: Gisele Bündchen

Among famous models, Gisele Bündchen occupies a prominent place. Indeed, it seems that this Brazilian model is given the honour to hand over the World Cup trophy to the winning team in July 2014!

The astrologer revels in analysing her chart, because it perfectly fits the image we have of this lady: with the combination of her Sun in Cancer and her Ascendant in Capricorn, Bündchen is part of those personalities made up of two opposite signs. However, Cancer and Capricorn share the same need to protect themselves from outside agitation, for they relish some degree of solitude. The desire to find peace and to stay away from the world of appearences is obvious.

But isn't it odd for someone who chose such a public and glamorous profession as modelling? This leads us to consider the Midheaven, the House symbolising the career. It is in Libra, with Mars on the tip of the axis, as well as Pluto and the Moon a bit further, in the 10th House. Libra represents very well the realm of fashion; but with the planets posited there, it was mainly thanks to her sporty look (Mars) and her sex-appeal that Bündchen convinced photographers and the media. When she was a child, her tall size and her athletic skills first prompted her to become a professional volleyball player. But on the initiative of her mother, who sensed her daughter's potential in this other field, as early as the age of 13, she was encouraged to take modelling lessons in the company of her sisters.

Then it was by dint of hard work, and not immediately, that she started to succeed, since she does not have the type of classical beauty which imposes itself effortlessly. Incidentally, it is true that her nose and her jaws display the mark of her Ascendant in Capricorn, a quite "bony" sign. Luckily, her slender figure, her long legs, which also bear the stamp of the 10th sign, are assets in her job. In brief, taking into account the Ascendant sign, the very packed 10th House, the position of Mars among the dominants, and the support the Sun receives from "tough" planets, we can deduce that she steered her life with determination. Which proves that Cancers do not necessarily remain in the background! In addition, Capricorn endows her with above average endurance, and all the more so that Saturn, the sign ruler, is strong in the chart. Therefore, if it took her some time – the Saturn effect maybe – with less good luck than other people to become famous, afterwards Gisele Bündchen managed her career wisely, particularly in the financial area: she got her most important contracts during a period of over ten years, and she reached the top in 2008-2009, when she was ranked among the most influential people by Forbes.

Getting back to the analysis of the deeper level of her personality, it is most likely that in private, this Brazilian lady is very different from her public image. Although all the planets are in the Southern hemisphere, which highlights social achievements, only Venus stands out by her position below the horizon, and forms numerous aspects from Gemini. Associated with the Sun in Cancer, with the needs for intimate affection, Venus adds the propensity to flirt or at least to communicate on a light and charming mode. Considering that Venus is in quite clear opposition with Neptune, Bündchen may have been blinded emotionally. It is possible that she has been chasing rainbows, for instance when she strove to bring unfaithful Leonardo DiCaprio to settle down. However, since Venus is in a harmonious aspect with Pluto, she gives Bündchen the ability to overcome disappointments better than other people. Furthermore, this nice aspect also winks at the Moon in Scorpion, and echoes her influence. Beneath the superficial nature of her seduction, Bündchen experiences consuming passions, about which she does not reveal much. Her sexuality is probably as potent as demanding, owing to the Scorpio and the Pluto effect.

Today, reassured by her established success and a stable marriage with Tom Brady, she prefers to focus on her family, rather protected, which is very Cancer, and she continues to find happiness in the practice of many sports (Mars), the yoga, and a simple and rustic lifestyle (Capricorn).

Biography of Gisele Bündchen (excerpt)
Gisele Caroline Bündchen (born July 20, 1980 (birth time source: Marcello Borges, birth certificate)) is a Brazilian fashion model and occasional film actress and producer.

Since last September, the loop of Mars in Libra brought her back to the centre stage, since it is her 10th House which is activated by this transit. Besides, the planet matches the fact that it is about football in her country of birth, which impacts her career. Indeed, in this occasion, she was on the front page of many magazines. And as if by mere coincidence, Mars will have completed his mission by the end of July 2014!

Later on, the attention is drawn to the transit of Pluto on her Ascendant, in the spring of 2015. The planet often exerts an underground influence, sometimes invisible to other people. But the inner transformation probably intensifies. With factors such as Pluto and Capricorn, the need for truth and authenticity becomes tougher, undoubtedly. In the course of 2016, in the longer term, Jupiter will offer his support to the Ascendant: the results of this metamorphosis will be concrete and positive. It is all the more so that Jupiter will continue his course by returning to the House of career in the autumn of 2016. This cycle, which occurs each twelve years only, could enable Bündchen to sign new fruitful deals, this time placed under the sign of maturity.
