Astrological Aspects: General Introduction
The analysis of a natal chart must be as comprehensive as possible. This is what we do as we make our personalized reports available in our e-shop. It must be borne in mind that many astrologers concentrate on the interpretation of planets in signs and in houses, and of angles, without paying enough attention to aspects. On the contrary, we believe that when aspects involve personal planets between themselves or slow-moving planets, they are of fundamental importance. In all cases, they are at least as significant as the Ascendant or the Sun. This is particularly relevant when the orb is tight (i.e. when the aspect is exact). This is the criterion we apply for this new series of articles which describe how well-known personalities experience certain aspects.
Mercury and Jupiter in Harmonious Aspect
In this article, we discuss the favorable relationship between Mercury and Jupiter, two interesting planets because they are complementary. They rule two opposing signs, Gemini and Sagittarius.
This axis, often referred to as the axis of knowledge, already indicates that these planets help us communicate better and position ourselves socially.
Mercury, the fastest planet in the solar system (apart from the Moon, which is considered a luminary in astrological terms), is close to the Sun and spends two to four weeks in each sign. However, there are notable exceptions in its journey, as the planet undergoes about three retrogradations per year, leading to extended stays in the affected signs, sometimes up to two months.
This speed and particular functioning symbolize mental agility, adaptability, and curiosity. In line with Virgo (numbers), a more rational sign than Gemini (letters), Mercury is also connected to our capacity for reflection.
Jupiter, on the other hand, takes twelve years to travel through the zodiac, spending about one year in each sign. This planet is associated with expansion, growth, self-confidence, enthusiasm, generosity, charisma, and benevolent authority.
Generally considered positive, Jupiter can also lead to excesses due to an overwhelming optimism or an inflated ego.
The positive connection between these two planets bestows a cheerful and confident character, capable of spotting opportunities more quickly than others. These qualities ensure success, thanks to an analytical ability that avoids getting bogged down by negative emotions.
A harmonious aspect between Mercury and Jupiter allows for the combination of practical sense and social brilliance, whether through presence or wit. Such individuals naturally attract company, becoming true magnets for luck due to their sociability.
They easily trust others, relying on their instincts but also knowing they can always implement a plan B when faced with the unexpected. Their outgoing attitude, joviality, and constant humor make them irresistible.
Finally, this aspect is particularly beneficial in business, where they excel, notably in luxury commerce, but also in teaching, cinema, literature, and the broader transmission of knowledge.
The favorable aspects considered in this article are the pure conjunction, unaffected by negative influences, the sextile, which enhances speed, and the trine, which is conducive to exceptional luck.
In order to better explain this aspect, we mention several well-known personalities, here Shirley Temple (favorable conjunction), Tim Burton (sextile), Charlotte Casiraghi (trine), and Stromae (sextile).
This article deliberately isolates the aspects so as to better describe them. For this reason, it claims on no account to be a psychological analysis of the celebrity in question, for whom many other articles are available in the "Focus" section.
It is possible to find thousands of other horoscopes having Mercury and Jupiter in favorable aspect (or any other aspects), with the online tool search. The planets, positions in sign and in house as well as the orb, are configurable.
Shirley Temple
Shirley Temple was one of the first child stars, having started her career in Hollywood in the 1930s.
This Taurus native stood out for her precocious maturity, a trait particularly highlighted by the close conjunction between Jupiter, ruler of her Sagittarius Ascendant, and Mercury in Aries in the 5th house, both in trine with Saturn.
With intelligence, she later used her exceptional fame, derived from popular films such as Bright Eyes by David Butler in 1934, to transcend her image as a child-woman.
This led her to eventually embark on a second career in diplomacy, a field associated with Jupiter. After joining the Republican Party, she became the U.S. delegate to the United Nations.
She also took courageous stands on health-related issues, publicly speaking about her battle with cancer.
Artistically, she later diversified, benefiting from the support of the Mercury-Jupiter conjunction, which granted her ease in oral expression and great adaptability. The trine to Saturn contributed significantly to the longevity of her career and the lasting memories she left behind.

Tim Burton
Although the natal chart of the original director and screenwriter Tim Burton includes a tension between Mercury and his Ascendant, this drawback is compensated by the exact sextile between Mercury and Jupiter.
This configuration allows him to offset some of the darker aspects of his personality with sharp humor and a certain optimism.
Given that Mercury rules both his Gemini Ascendant and Virgo Sun, the planet takes precedence in importance over Jupiter. Positioned in the 5th house (pleasures, childhood, creativity) and near the North Node, Jupiter permits him to indulge in excesses in these specific areas.
In any case, the connection between these two planets gives him a penchant for crafting stories with strong artistic ambitions. Fans of fantasy cinema also note that he has the ability to balance critical acclaim with commercial success.
To achieve this, he relies on a loyal team of favorite actors, such as Johnny Depp, Michael Keaton, or Winona Ryder, the latter two appearing in the 2024 version of Beetlejuice after having starred in the 1988 version.
This consistency in fantasy and diversity is undoubtedly influenced by the aspect studied in this article.

Charlotte Casiraghi
Well-born, Charlotte Casiraghi, the daughter of Caroline of Monaco and granddaughter of Grace Kelly, captivates popular magazines with her glamorous appearances and the snapshots of her love life.
However, the young woman has always insisted on proving that she is much more than just an image. With Mercury in Cancer, a sign associated with heritage, in trine with Jupiter exalted in Pisces, Charlotte has skillfully capitalized on this legacy, becoming the muse for some of the most prestigious brands and forging connections with Karl Lagerfeld, a close friend of her mother.
Passionate about literature and philosophy, she successfully launched PhiloMonaco, an association active in organizing intellectual meetings and discussions on the Rock.
Charlotte is also committed to making these disciplines accessible to everyone. The Moon in Cancer, close to Mercury, further enhances this aspect by increasing the popularity of her initiatives in communication in general.

Stromae
The Belgian singer and songwriter Stromae is living proof that it is possible to be both unconventional and extremely popular.
This Pisces native draws on the power of conviction from a Mercury in Aries, which never hesitates to express things as he feels them. The desire to please comes much later!
Fortunately, his natal Mercury forms a sextile with Jupiter in Aquarius, located in the house of career, showing his interest in the major causes of his time and his commitment to making a difference.
Stromae is even sometimes bold in the choices of the albums he has produced. After sporting quite eccentric looks, notably during the release of his successful album Papaoutai, he is now in a more discreet phase and is said to have returned to more conventional projects.
Such an aspect likely provides him with the ability to take on these challenges, even if it means curbing his multiple interests and taking more time for himself.
