New Daily Gossip Column from KittyTaurus

Gentle readers, I am excited to announce a new creative venture that I hope you will all enjoy. As of today I am writing a daily (Monday through Friday) gossip column called "Scoop!" in the San Francisco Examiner. The column is astrology-free and written under my civilian name. Check it out here:

http://sfpaper.examiner.com/edition/san_francisco/?haspdf=1

For the full column, scroll to page “25-Entertainment” in the PDF viewer. You can also pick up a hard copy of the paper if you are in the San Francisco area, or in Washington D.C. where it is syndicated in that city's Examiner.

It is a great honor to have a public platform to dispense life advice to my beloved Britney. Hope y’all have a chance to check it out.

Namaste,
KittyTaurus

Pam Anderson and Kid Rock: Opposites Don't Always Attract

After only a few months, the raunchily-ever-after union of Pamela Anderson and Kid Rock has already fallen by the wayside. Both parties just filed for divorce, although considering they had three weddings, they may still require one more set of paperwork to make it official.

Wild though this pair may have seemed, there was a sense in which they seemed to make, well, sense. Astrologically speaking, as an opposite-sign couple (Pam's a nurturing, domestic Cancer; Kid's a father-figure Capricorn), they certainly had a good shot at making things work. ~ See Pamela Anderson's birth chart (Astrotheme) ~ See Kid Rock's birth chart (Astrotheme, no birth time) But as anyone who knows a bit about astrology can tell you, the Sun signs never tell the whole story when it comes to compatibility.

Back in July, when Pam and Kid announced their engagement, I expressed guarded hopes for the couple but also some misgivings:

On the one hand, Pam and Kid are actually a good match as far as their Sun signs are concerned. A Cancer woman and Capricorn man can make for a cozy white-picket-fence type of traditional family unit. And one thing these two definitely have in common, skanky as they both may be, is love for their sons. They do seem to make a nice extended family together with their boys. Also, Kid's Sun in Capricorn is square Pam's Moon in Aries, a nice aspect for romantic tension between a man and woman.

But beyond that, I'm not so sure that they really have a strong bond. Their Suns are not in aspect to each other, and Pam's Cancer Sun inconjuncts Kid's Venus in Sagittarius, an awkward angle as far as their ability to meet each other's relationship needs. She craves security while he might well be happy living on the road with a string of groupies as his companions. {Full story}

The dates of separation listed on the divorce proceedings, interestingly, differ—Pam says Nov. 21; Kid, Nov. 26 {Source}. The later date seems to resonate more, with Jupiter in Sagittarius having just returned to its exact position in Kid's natal chart, that groupie-loving Venus in Sag likewise making its return, and Mars in Scorpio about to do so. Kid is feeling a strong urge for freedom, and for autonomy over his own actions. With so much Sagittarius energy in effect right now, expect him to rebound by sowing his wild oats in a big way.

Meanwhile, Pamela has transiting Saturn on her 4th-house Venus, an aspect that is testing her domestic and family relationships and strengthening her need for a strong, secure foundation upon which to build her life with her kids. Under a Saturn-Venus conjunction, people have a tendency to cut out relationships that are not working (though those that are already solid can emerge from this testing time that much stronger). The sadness of experiencing a miscarriage, as was confirmed last month, may have driven Pam to take stock of her emotional and family needs. With his freewheeling Sagittarius stellium, Kid Rock simply might not have provided the reliable household presence that Pam sought for herself and her sons.

As Saturn turns retrograde in early December, Pam will have ample time over the next five-odd months to reevaluate these emotional needs and work on reestablishing a sense of security. Here's hoping Pam figures out how to get her groove back, and finds herself some much-deserved, long-deferred happiness on her own and/or with a new love.

Heidi and Seal's New Son's Horoscope

Mazel tov, felicidades and much joy to Heidi Klum and Seal, proud parents of a new son, Johan Riley Fyodor Taiwo Samuel, born at 5:01 PM PST in Los Angeles on November 22. {Source} As previously noted, I find my heartstrings irresistibly tugged by the sickeningly perfect perfection of the adorable Klum-Seal family even as I want to hate them for it. Now that they have posted a birth announcement clearly stating their child's time of birth, thereby making my job that much easier, my endearment toward them knows no bounds. I'm even willing to overlook the ridiculous name. Thus overflowing with goodwill and primary-source data, I simply had to check out young JRFTS's astrological chart.

See Johan Riley Fyodor Taiwo Samuel's birth chart (Exclusive to CelebAstroBlogy)

Johan is an interesting lad, definitely a Sagittarius citizen of the world—no surprise given his international family. But the free-spirited Sagittarian energy is intermingled with a strong current of Scorpio intensity. Three planets, Mercury, Mars, and Jupiter, are in Scorpio, and the Sagittarius Sun is in an out-of-sign conjunction with its ruler, Jupiter, in the critical 29th degree of Scorpio. Jupiter is in mutual reception with Pluto in Sagittarius, which in turn is in a conjunction with the Moon that, at 10", is tighter than the skin on Nicole Kidman's forehead. With his Scorpio and Sag planets so closely bound up with each other, Johan will be fiercely passionate about his beliefs and ideology.

The Moon also represents the mother, and in light of its tight conjunction to Pluto, Mama Heidi will no doubt loom large as a powerful force in Johan's life. With Saturn in the 4th house, papa Seal might well play a more nurturing, domestic parental role while Heidi is more the disciplinarian. (A German, authoritarian? Whaaaa?) But at the same time, with Johan's Moon-Pluto in Sag, she will be a playful, fun mom to him, as well as a teacher/guru who opens up new horizons of life experience to her son.

Heidi's Sun at 10° Gemini is close to Johan's Ascendant, which rules outward appearance; this would confirm Seal's claim that the baby "looks just like his mother." See Heidi Klum's birth chart (Astrotheme, no birth time) As he grows, he may strive to emulate and reflect her in other ways. With Neptune on the Aquarius Midheaven (career goals), Johan might well aspire to fame and media attention of the sort enjoyed by his supermodel mom and singer dad. Considering the passion and drive of his Scorpio/Sag chart signature, such dreams are certainly within reach. Garrrh, isn't anyone in this family deeply flawed?! No, no, I kid, I kid. Heartfelt congrats to Heidi, to Seal, and to Leni and Henry on their new baby brother.
