| The Venusian signs of Taurus and Libra have a great affinity for music and melody and there's plenty of that in Joel's chart. The Ascendant and Midheaven rulers are also in musical signs and in conjunction, so it's no wonder that music is his life. Sun in Taurus people are down to earth types who greatly enjoy the physical, sensual, or artistic side of life. They are normally placid and gentle types with a keen buisness or evaluative sense. Their determination is legendary. Moon in Libra desires harmonious company and pleasant surroundings. They're attractive, easygoing, sociable, and fashionable. Moon conjuncted by Neptune has intuitive sixth sense about people and relationships(Libra), and harmony in general. Mercury is strong in its own sign of Gemini giving a natural ability to learn, communicate, and diversify. Venus is also in its own sign of Taurus giving all of the pure qualities of this sign: fixity, resourcefulness, artistry, and sensuality. Mars also in Taurus accentuates all of the other Taurean placements giving added spice or gusto. This placement earns and spends quickly or impulsively, can be very sensual or hedonistic, and has a powerful singing or speaking voice. Jupiter in Aquarius is a noble and visionary placement interested in the welfare of humanity. They are original, independant, ingenious, and freedom-loving, as well as funny and sometimes just plain crazy or wild. Saturn in Leo is the master performer and creator who relishes the spotlight or center stage and the recognition and applause for his or her good works. Uranus in Gemini is charming and attractive and an interesting or amusing conversationalist. They want to get their unique ideas across via speaking, writing, or any other communicative channel, and do not like being restrained or pinned down in any way. Neptune in Libra has a fine sense of beauty and harmony and makes a natural artist, poet, or musician. This is the "flower" or peace generation of the mid-late 60's and early 70's. Pluto in Leo is very specific about its brand of creativity or form of expression. They produce exceptional or exclusive works of art or entertainment. | |
