What a powerful and tormented horoscope for a little Libra like Gwen Stefani, willing to please. Born in Fullerton, in California, the singer-to-be, author, composer and designer, fed at first on a strong family influence. Her mother sewed her clothes and sparked off in her daughter the desire to look beautiful, as the latter was very conscious of her appearance from an early age.
Simultaneously, her brother supported her first steps as a singer in the band No Doubt. Oddly enough, it was not out of personal will, but because she was told that she had a nice voice. She started as a chorister and refused to take on the role of the group's lead singer, for she felt that she was not yet up to it.
We recognise here typical Libra's traits: the need to be appreciated, attractiveness, but also hesitations and artistic potential. It must be underlined that with four planets in the 7th sign, especially the Sun surrounded by, on the one hand, the Mercury-Uranus duo and, on the other hand, by Jupiter, Libra is definitely predominant. With such assets, good luck and the desire to stand out are as well included in her "astral" programme.
In addition, there is a considerable influence on learning about her status as a woman. Indeed, the Moon is potent, in Cancer, the sign she rules, and conjunct the Descendant. This position indicates a highly emotional state and the search for affective security. It brings about the urge to win people's support, to begin with, her family members' and by extension, her public's, which is even more heartening.
Fortunately for Stefani, the Capricorn Ascendant offers supplementary and different advantages such as ambition and perseverance. However, we notice a drawback which may slow her down. Since the chart shows an almost complete lack of Fire, and given the shyness we just discussed, as well as the influence of Capricorn – the first impression outsiders perceive – Stefani may come across as cold and distant. In fact, once again, she is burning to receive the approval that Libras badly long for.
Getting back to the period when she finally decided to become the singer of the band No Doubt, success took a long time to come forward. The audience had to realise first that Stefani was not one of the '90s grunge muses. This is logical, because with the Sun near Uranus, just like Mercury for communication aspects, one must find one's own unique and original path. Stefani's style, with her platinum blond hair, her slender figure, and her obvious femininity, is closer to that of Blondie or Marilyn Monroe. In a word, she sells classic yet revisited glamour. Martin Scorsese made no mistake about it and gave her a small part in The Aviator, in which she played the role of the actress Jean Harlow.
The same year, 2004, the album Love. Angel. Music. Baby of the group No Doubt eventually became a hit. For Stefani's early fans, it was her astonishing energy, offbeat compared to her physique, which mainly explained the audience's enthusiasm.
The following years confirmed her potential, since she kept on receiving nominations then awards.
At the same time, her private life went through ups and downs, fluctuating and lunar, we would say. A T-Square pattern, involving the most personal planets and the 1st-7th axis is even more revealing. Sun and Jupiter in Libra, Moon in Cancer - Descendant, and Ascendant in Capricorn. Stefani often falls in love with musicians and seems to look for dilemmas which force her to choose between career and feelings.
After she married Gavin Rossdale, she discovered that he already had an illegitimate daughter. Stefani confessed herself that she was devastated by the situation and that she would try to overcome it with her husband. The marriage, which ended in divorce in 2015, had nonetheless lasted thirteen years. Therefore, the challenges of this affective T-Square seem to be the cause of Stefani's big misadventures. Keeping in mind that with a more rational Venus in Virgo and member of a magnificent Grand Trine in Earth, there is also a good share of quiet romantic happiness for Stefani. The most important thing is to find out the planets which prevail according to their cycles.

The forthcoming years are most likely to be fulfilling. Jupiter's current transit in Libra, back to his natal position, suggests an always rewarding fame. Furthermore, as early as 2018, the importance of the Earth element, caused by the transit of many slow-moving planets, i.e. Saturn in Capricorn in January and then Uranus entering Taurus in May 2018.
However, this trans-Saturnian planet will first transit the IC (the home), and Saturn, ruler of the Ascendant. These transits may point to some loneliness out of the stage. It will be all the more true and contrasted that Jupiter will be in the House of career, announcing a host of public successes for Stefani.
