| Capricorn rising gives Charles Bronson his cool reserve and earthy tough guy look. Moon in Sag takes risks, comes out lucky, and is philosophical about it. This Moon loves adventure, nature, animals, and sports. Sun in Scorpio is king of the underworld, the authority on the dark side of life and human nature, and can choose the low and wide road to death and destruction or the high and narrow road to rebirth and regeneration. All solar Scorpios, or those with planets in this sign, constantly face this decision, and it appears Bronson chose the high road. Mercury in Scorpio complements his solar nature giving him more objectivity and flexibility. This Mercury is quiet, secretive, investigative, and keenly perceptive. They like to read or talk about morbid subjects such as death and the occult, and tend to see everything in black and white. Venus, Jupiter, and Saturn in Libra nicely balance the Scorpio extremism by giving a healthy sense of balance, beauty, and justice. Venus here appreciates art and physical beauty. Jupiter does well in all kinds of partnerships or relationships, and Saturn knows(and enforces) the law. Mars in Virgo puts most of its energy into routine labor or service. They are very organized, methodical, and detail oriented, and can also be sharply critical or analytical. Uranus in Pisces is ultra-sensitive and otherworldly and often displays psychic ability. Drinking, smoking, drugs, or simple isolation are common means of desensitization for this position -in the face of what is perceived as a cruel or harsh world. Neptune in Leo has a powerful effect on Bronson's conciousness or career direction, as it occupies his solar tenth house, and typecasts him as a dramatic film actor. Most people with Neptune in Leo are drawn to or fascinated by glamour, fame, power, and the entertainment field in general. It was this Neptune generation that gave birth to and developed the world of Hollywood. Pluto, Bronson's solar ruler, is in Cancer giving him and his generation a deep respect and support for home and family life. They have very powerful emotions and survival instincts and make exceptional providers, protectors, parents, and buisness people. | |
