Analysis of Mylène Farmer's astrological chart

Whether she is appreciated or hated, since Mylène Farmer is a highly controversial person, everyone agrees that she is mysterious. On the one hand, she is discreet and not talkative, and on the other hand, she owes her success mainly to the scandalous way she reminds of death or sexuality. With such a profile, should one expect to be dealing with a person having the Sun in Virgo, in addition to the Ascendant? Yes, certainly, because one must not forget that Virgo is a double-bodied sign.

To begin with, this sign must learn to overcome its complexes. Indeed, Mylène Farmer confessed she lacked self-confidence. "For quite some time already, I have had no choice but to transcend my fears, get rid of them and stop being their hostage. When I think back, it is incredibly violent to surmount this handicap. Extremely shy people only can understand what we have to go through to succeed." This is what she said in a rare interview granted to Paris-Match, in 2010. Constantly anxious, with a tendency to dramatize because details are given too much attention, Virgo may become a misanthrope. Farmer can disappear from the front pages and get immersed in introspection whenever she deems it necessary. Sometimes, she is unable to relax and prefers to stay away from people. As a result, she may come across as a cold or even insensitive person.

As the French astrologer André Barbault explains well, Virgo may also be very critical and behave aggressively, like Scorpio. This happens especially when bellicose planets are posited there. This is Farmer's case, since Pluto, ruler of Scorpio, is conjunct the Ascendant axis. Therefore, the planet runs the show in its abode, a sort of vampires' ball, if we refer to the singer's tastes. However, when she started out, the young artist born in Montreal seemed well-behaved and did not win over record companies.

She could have felt disheartened, but she did not. As a good Plutonian, endowed in addition with Virgo's sharp intelligence, she made adjustments. Laurent Boutonnat, an author-composer who detected a real musical talent in Farmer, persuaded her to continue. In 1986, with her red hair and her album Libertine, she eventually hit the nail on the head. Despite the buzz of scandal surrounding her songs, she kept on being successful. On stage, she decided to embody the darkest fantasies, with poetic references to the 18th century, but also a weird world, both baroque and sadomasochistic.

In her horoscope, the Ascendant conjunct Pluto forms a nice aspect with Neptune, indicating that she knows how to arouse the craziest desires. The other side of the coin is the pessimism and the doubt which have always haunted her. It is interesting to underline that her career is characterised by longevity, although she strove as much as possible to avoid the "show business game". Few public appearances, no participation in TV sensationalist programmes, no scandals, no easy way out. Mylène Farmer has chosen her path and sticks to it. Her Midheaven in the sign of Taurus promises stability. In this position, provided other features concur, social destiny may be related to an artistic activity, particularly singing or music. In Farmer's case, there is a huge support available, a double Saturn-Jupiter conjunction in Capricorn. Saturn, who symbolises durability, is in domicile and provides all the solidity and endurance needed. Mylène Farmer is fragile only in her songs and in the way she appears (her Ascendant in Virgo, similar to a baby bird fallen out of the nest!). At the same time, Jupiter offers his usual exuberance. Farmer is a singer-author-composer who polishes up her texts and managed to reach wide international audiences. Her artistic potential is reinforced by a very busy Libra. With Mercury, the Moon and Mars, three fast-moving planets, Farmer focuses on aestheticism, seduction, and committed femininity. She knows how to attract the public, and it is well-known that her fans are particularly loyal and enthusiastic.

As underscored above, there is little information on her private life. It is assumed that in her love life, she likes to be the leader. Venus in Leo counterbalances the shyness of Virgo in this regard. Deeply in tune with the threesome in Libra, the planet pulls the strings of lust so as to be loved better... even though she conceals her goals, for she is in the 12th House. There is barely a danger of deception, sadness, or melancholy, because Venus is square Neptune with a wide orb (slight note of discord).

It is possible to elaborate on Mylène Farmer's businesswoman side in addition to being an artist. With a strong Earth Element, a loaded 2nd House, and an active Mercury, it is safe to say that Farmer knows how to get organised and to progress strategically. She is wise, with both feet on the ground; economic magazines often consider that she is one of the wealthiest French-speaking singers. It must be acknowledged that she manages to sell very well her "brand" thanks to her author's rights, her merchandising, and the production of her gigantic performances.
