Analysis of Mick Jagger's astrological chart

A living legend of one of the biggest pop groups, Mick Jagger is the brilliant embodiment of a successful Sun in Leo. It must be said that this sign sparkles with four planets, including Mercury, the ruler of the Ascendant.

Let us first pay homage to the Sun, radiant in his domicile and in addition, accompanied by Jupiter. Such elements corroborate Mick Jagger's phenomenal good luck as well as the fact that he belongs to the bourgeoisie. Although in his time people wanted to disregard the elite's code, his own tastes oriented him very early towards the best. No doubt that he imagined that he would rise in the world, one way or another (which is very Leo), and that he did not disdain any sign of wealth or prosperity. Then, Mercury expresses the restless, mischievous, and eternally young nature of this singer, a trip-lover. Mercury, the prevailing planet, sends a sextile to the Gemini Ascendant from the 3rd House. Everything points to an approachable personality keen on exchanges, and expert in communication.

Along the same line, although in his capacity as Mercury's higher octave, Uranus also plays a very significant role. In Mick Jagger's chart, this planet is near the cuspide of the Ascendant, but still in the 12th House (the end of things, the balance sheet). From there, it supports the Midheaven (the career) in Aquarius, also with a sextile. It is well known that Uranus and Aquarius have the habit of surprising us. Therefore, this Uranus in ambush is able to catch Jagger when he least expects. And who could dispute the peculiar nature of his career? Who could have foreseen that the good-mannered boy who grew up in the countryside of Kent would some day send an electroshock to huge crowds worldwide, as he becomes the leader of the legendary Rolling Stones?

In the early sixties, it is on a railway platform that he runs into his former schoolmate, Keith Richards, both Jagger and Keith having a blues record in their hand. Regardless of Jagger's future career in economics – the stars would have definitely disagreed! – Uranus propels him on stage. However, Saturn in the 1st House delays the first steps: Mick Jagger is not immediately chosen as the leader of the newly constituted group, recently baptised by an inspired Brian Jones... Incidentally, we imagine how this fiery Leo must have champed at the bit before becoming the great showman impossible to dissociate from the Stones' success!

The singer with a slightly perverted angel face ought to be grateful for the capital received at his birth, and composed of vital energy and extraordinary magnetic power. Indeed, the two planets which represent power, namely Jupiter and Pluto, are conjunct his Sun in the already strong sign of Leo: a recurrence, once more. This craving for experiences prompts him to dominate the world with charming insolence and casualness (in addition, here, he is influenced by Gemini).

The tours of the group have generated highest financial gains, whereas the Rolling Stones' longevity, importance and influence will remain for ever in the annals of music. Besides, the scandalous impact of Pluto is found in many regards: it is the renowned cocktail, very "drug, sex, and rock and roll"! We also think of such songs as Sympathy for the Devil, Midnight Rambler, Brown Sugar, and many more, bearing the signature of Pluto, of course.

It is obvious that Mick Jagger experienced all the extravagances of his time a thousand-fold, but he could rely on Jupiter's good luck, on Mercury's resourcefulness, and on Leo's vital instinct. For it must be underlined that, despite his excesses and the implied dangers, Mick Jagger always avoided the worst. Today, he would certainly exhaust most people!

One extra word on Mick Jagger and women, since his reputation as a seducer is unparalleled. Although he can trust his personal charm and magnetism (Leo-Gemini), he is also endowed with a sensual nature, strengthened by Mars and the Moon in Taurus. Therefore, he has everything required to be a good lover! Nonetheless, with two planets linked to femininity posited in Earth signs (Taurus and Virgo), he prefers realistic and pragmatic women instead of divas like himself. But Uranus jeopardises the stability of his romantic life, because he is in harsh aspect with natal Venus (6° orb). This explains the reason why, although he seemed more grounded with his last affair with the fashion designer L'Wren Scott (born with the Sun in Taurus), this love story finally blew up when she committed suicide, to his big surprise...

In the spring of 2014, Mick Jagger asked the Stones to postpone their tour of Australia. This very rough patch may be caused by transiting Saturn in exact opposition to his Moon in Taurus. According to testimonies, the singer seems very distraught by the demise of his long-time partner, and it is true that forthcoming transits are not too good. In early August 2014, transiting Jupiter arrives on the natal Sun, but also squares transiting Mars. Jagger will need to overcome his current anger, perhaps by resuming his concerts. He will be able to rely on the help of his family in September, when Jupiter will enter the 4th House, also transited by Venus. Later on, Jupiter will send a trine to the natal Uranus-Ascendant conjunction, suggesting a surprise or an annoyance in the way Jagger learns du cope with bereavement. After a period of readjustment, it is most likely that longer-term perspectives will incite him to wisdom, to some degree of solitude, or even to start a new and finally calm relationship: Saturn entering the 7th House in early 2016 will be in good aspect with natal Uranus. Jagger will also benefit from Jupiter, a planet which always proved auspicious in Virgo, on natal Venus. Let us hope that the magnetic singer will eventually achieve serenity.
