Talented and distinguished Roddy McDowell is a Sun in Virgo with the Moon in Scorpio making him a very observant and emotionally intense individual; someone who seeks to constantly perfect his skills -both on and off screen. With Mercury and Venus conjunct in Libra McDowell is a keen student of relationships and human nature. The speech is pleasant and tactful, the mind clever and balanced, and the interests center on people, society, beauty, and art. Venus in Libra also enjoys art, music, beauty, and harmonious relationships, although they can be a little too dependant or possessive here. Mars in Gemini is perhaps the dominant influence in the chart squaring the Sun and giving McDowell great mental prowess or energy. All planets in Gemini have a powerful affect on solar Virgos. Mars here is the thinker and speaker who inspires, motivates, or sets others ablaze with their words and ideas. They are quick, cunning, restless, and thrive on change and variety, both personally and professionally. Jupiter in Taurus with the Ascendant gives a certain shrewdness or practicality, especially in buisness or money matters. There is also a keen enjoyment of the physical pleasures of life and the ability to grow or develop as an artist or performer. Saturn in Sagittarius takes spiritual matters seriously and often joins a group or organization devoted to the study or implementation of such. They also have a fine sense of travel, culture, and geography, and make fine publicists and ambassadors. Uranus in Aries is a strong-willed and volatile group of individuals who make natural pioneers, innovators, and inventors, especially in fields such as electronics, mechanics, and aviation. They are ingenious self-promoters. Neptune in Leo is the Hollywood psyche obsessed with fame, glamour, and power. They are naturally proud, creative, playful, and entertaining. Pluto in Cancer people get down to buisness when it comes home, family, and security. They have powerful emotions, instincts, and appetites.
