| Superstar singer Aretha Franklin has the Sun in dynamic and energetic Aries with the ruler Mars and Jupiter in restless and versatile Gemini. Overlaying this strong inner positivity is a heavy water sign influence, beginning with a secretive and intense Scorpio rising and a colorful and maternal Moon in Cancer. Mercury in Pisces completes the grand water trine giving a sensitive, imaginative, and intuitive perceptive nature. Midheaven in Leo seeks fame or the limelight, and Pluto here makes for an exceptional and mass-influencing entertainer. Venus in Aquarius makes Aretha unique, intelligent, friendly, and unconventional, with a style that sets trends and breaks barriers. Mars in Gemini is the pioneer thinker and communicator whose words and ideas are new and inspiring. They are restless and versatile types who need a variety of people and activities, both personally and professionally. Mars conjunct Jupiter has much energy and courage and makes one's own opportunities or successes. Jupiter in Gemini is a bright and youthful spirit who places much faith or importance in learning and education and proper communication. They make good teachers, hosts, and storytellers, as well as writers, speakers, and bookpublishers. Saturn in Taurus is practical, productive, and sensual, with a strong need for material comfort and security. They make fine artists, singers, and business people and are often solid or heavy set in appearance. Saturn conjunct Uranus combines the old or traditional with the new or modern. Uranus in Taurus is rugged, sensual, and stubborn, and comes up with new ways to spend, invest, or produce. Many fine singers and artists were born during the period of Saturn and Uranus in Taurus(1940-42). Neptune in Virgo gives Aretha and her generation a strong work ethic and need for purity, civility, and perfection. Pluto in Leo people go to extremes in love and leisure and often find their exclusive niche in the entertainment business. | |
