| The outstanding thing about Bruce Dern's chart is the 8-planet mutable grand cross with the emphasis on the Gemini-Sag axis, making him an intellectual and communicative powerhouse. There is great awareness on all levels -emotional, intellectual, physical, and spiritual, and this comes through powerfully in the persona. Most people with mutable grand crosses struggle with issues of morality and can become great saints or great sinners. Fortunately, most of the planets in Dern's cross are well-placed so that there is more saint than sinner. Sun in Gemini loves learning and communicating in general. They thrive on diversity, ideas, and lightheartedness. Mercury is at home in Gemini giving strong mental and communicative powers and gives verbal or mental expression to the will of the Sun. Venus in Gemini is clever and intellectual and desires diversity, both at work and in the social or amorous sense. Venus conjunct the Sun steadies the ego, giving more calm and resourcefulness. Mars in Gemini energizes the mind or thinking process and makes these people restless, changeable, and diverse. Mars conjunct the Sun makes the ego impulsive and volatile, and there is a love of speed or quickness. Balancing the the lower mind Gemini emphasis with high awareness are the Moon and Jupiter in Sagittarius. The Moon here is open, blunt, and impulsive, and concerns itself with travel, exploration, and higher spiritual awareness. Jupiter is at home and therefore very powerful in Sagittarius giving the native unbounded fortune, both personal and financial, and unlimited potential for spiritual growth. Saturn in Pisces is also highly spiritual but in a more reclusive or inner sense. They need periodic peace and quiet to filter or recharge their impressionable and absorbing natures. Uranus in Taurus is sensual and stubborn and has a genius for money, land, ownership, and the arts in general. Neptune in Virgo completes the grand cross giving Dern and his generation a desire or sensitivity for work, service, and contribution of some kind, as well as a highly critical and analytical psyche. Pluto in Cancer people are deeply and intensely emotional and very concerned about safety, security, survival, and home and family issues. | |
