The signs of Taurus and Virgo are emphasized in Pete Townsend's chart, and both are known to be quite musical in nature -this within the backdrop of the entire Neptune in Libra/Pluto in Leo generation, which is of course well noted for its creative musical talent. The Sun here is very earthy and strongly seeks tangible, sensual, visual, or audible expression. Sun in Taurus, is after all, the king of the physical or material plane. Moon in Virgo is also earthy, instinctively seeking order, stabiity, routine, perfection, or a job well done. Mercury in Taurus is a quiet gentle placement that does not like to rushed or bombarded with changes. They are very firm and determined people, with a good practical sense and a fine ability to evaluate. They're also sensual, and like good food and music. Venus in Aries is very ardent, passionate, and physically aggressive. They love activity and challenge of any kind and are not afraid to pursue their love interests. Many with this position like to own fast and sporty cars and have a spicy sex life. Mars in Aries is strongest in its own home sign giving Pete boundless energy, courage, and a strong independant nature. They are very much in the present, liking to do things quickly, immediately, and often by themselves. Jupiter in Virgo sees a lot in a little and can make a big deal out of trivial matters. Their expansive critical and analytical abilities serve them well in jobs requiring precision or attention to detail. Jupiter on the Ascendant relaxes an otherwise stiff or controlled exterior and makes the nature more open or generous. Saturn in Cancer overcomes home or family difficulties to become a steady or reliable provider and takes domestic matters very seriously. These people are keenly emotional and concerned with security or survival issues. Uranus in Gemini is brilliant, funny, attractive, versatile, and strongly supports free speech and education. Uranus right on the Midheaven may indicate Townsend's image as a rocker or rebel. Neptune in Libra has a fine or subtle sensitivity for music and the arts, and this generation in general is very addicted to all forms of beauty and harmony. This is of course the flower power generation of the late 1960's and early 1970's, desiring peace and justice for all. Pluto in Leo people take love and creativity very seriously, and their profound feelings and exceptional works have a mesmerizing and transforming effect on both individuals and the masses.
