Genius horror auteur Wes Craven is 67. With a Pisces Moon and Neptune on the Midheaven, no wonder he is so interested in making films about dreams and the subconscious. I repeat my entreaty for everyone to see the incredibly meta Wes Craven's New Nightmare. See Wes Craven's birth chart (Astrotheme)

Veteran actor Peter O'Toole is 74. See Peter O'Toole's birth chart (Astrotheme)
