Celeb AstroBlogy: UPDATE: Britney's Baby's Real Name and Birth Chart

Whoo-hoo! A birth certificate has finally settled the many rumors about Britney Spears' second son not being named Sutton Pierce or not even being a boy. In fact, Britney's infant is named Jayden James Federline, indeed sports a Y chromosome, and was born at 1:11 AM in Los Angeles on September 12 {Source: TMZ}. Now that's what I like to see—official documents confirming birth data! Big ups to TMZ!

Apart from my annoyance at having to redo the birth chart, which I originally calculated for 2:00 AM per media reports (imminent Mercury retrograde, anyone?), I must admit I am relieved that Britney did not actually give both her sons the initials SPF, as I was beginning to worry that she considered that some sort of magical nomenclatural substitute for actually covering up her babies when she takes them out in the sun. Anyway, here is the birth chart with the corrected name and time:

Little JJF's chart is not substantively different from the one with the 2:00 am birth time analyzed last month. Sensitive Cancer is still on the Ascendant and the Moon is in loyal, nurturing Taurus. The North Node moves to the Pisces Midheaven, which bodes well for his professional success in a creative and/or spiritual field and suggests that there may be a karmic mission entwined with his career path.

Venus' move to the 3rd house will make him a bit more social and his relationships a little more changeable, mitigating the clingy tendencies of the Taurus Moon; but then, Mercury and Mars in the 4th house suggest a shy homebody with his nose buried in a book. His Sun conjunct the Sun and Mercury of fellow Virgo sib Sean Preston (shown with Mom and Dad Kevin Federline above) indicates the brothers will have a close identification, though, like all close siblings, they may rip each other to shreds while jockeying for position and for points of differentiation.

As I mentioned previously, Jayden James may have a tendency to cling to his mother for comfort with that 4th-house emphasis. He will certainly be perceptive and attuned to others' feelings, perhaps worrying about them too much with Mercury at 29° Virgo.

One mildly worrisome point of note is that the earlier birth time makes the grand cross in Jayden's chart tighter by a degree or so than the 2:00 AM time did. As discussed previously, this configuration creates a lot of stress in Jayden's life, related to his parents and their larger-than-life celebrity image. But the North Node–Midheaven conjunction gives me hope that Jayden will choose to go down a different path; rather than trying to compete with or live up to his famous parents' glamour (uh, such as it is) and material success, he may decide to pursue a life of asceticism and service, in which success is defined by how many lives he can touch and transform. Flash forward 18 years, when J.J. and Shiloh Jolie-Pitt spot each other across a crowded Peace Corps tent.... Can't wait!
