Angelina Jolie's 2007 Birthday Forecast

What does the coming year hold for Angelina Jolie, who turns 32 on June 4? The actress has been through a lot of ups and downs in the past year, from the death of her mother to the addition of two new little ones to the family. Now she says she'll take time off ... but is that really in the stars for this overachiever?

I took a look at Angelina's solar return chart, a birthday horoscope that represents the coming year, to find out. And if anything, it appears she'll spend 2007 in an even more glaringly bright spotlight -- which could threaten her relationship with Brad Pitt.

In her solar return chart for the year, Angelina's natal 11th house, representing public perceptions of her, her media image, and her fame, comes to the Ascendant, suggesting this year will be dominated by that aspect of her life, as opposed to her private role as a mother and, er, life partner. The SR (solar return) Sun is in the 1st house of the SR chart, reinforcing the idea that Angie will be very much out in the open, rather than under the radar, this year.

That said, family relationships will definitely also be important to our Ange this year, as signified by her SR Venus in Cancer being just half a degree away from its own return to its natal position, which is on the natal Ascendant. See Angelina Jolie's birth chart (Astrotheme) Angelina's maternal, domestic, caring urges will certainly be a priority for her this year, as well as her career.

But there could be some fraying in the fabric of this domestic life. The SR Sun is opposite Jupiter in Sagittarius in the 7th house of relationships, and Uranus in Pisces in the SR 11th house forms a T-square. Jupiter in Sag could represent her double-Sagittarius partner Brad, with his urge to expand and develop their relationship; but Uranus in Pisces in the 11th house suggests that the allure of fame--no matter how much she might publicly shun it--is a force pulling Angelina away from the relationship.

Moreover, SR Mars in assertive, independent Aries is on Angelina's natal Jupiter, triggering her inborn itch to grow and expand by striking out on a new path on her own. She will be adventurous as ever (expect to see more plane flying, if not race car driving, walking across hot coals, and so forth) and definitely restless.

Given all that, plus Angelina's solar return Saturn opposite Brad's natal Saturn, could she be delivering a tough lesson to him this year? See Brad Pitt's birth chart (Astrotheme)

Actually, their relationship is looking more solid than not. Angelina's SR Moon in Saturn-ruled Capricorn exactly conjuncts Brad Pitt's natal Moon (within 04" of a degree). Emotionally, they will be very much in synch this year, and dedicated to the Capricornian values of long-term planning, stability and structure. Seen in this light, the Saturn opposition could also act as a binding force, reinforcing their connection rather than putting stress on it.

Ultimately, I don't see Brangelina splitting this year ... but the relatively pragmatic, unromantic Capricorn Moons could hint that they are sticking it out and making it work for the sake of a stable parental structure for the kids, rather than due to their passionate feelings for each other. Angie may still need a new outlet to act out.

{Astro-methodology note: This year I have opted to calculate Angie's SR chart for New Orleans, LA, where she and Brad have settled (by their standards, anyway) with their kids. Since she says she plans to take time off to be a mom, and Maddox has reportedly been enrolled in school in New Orleans, this is the closest thing to a stable home base Angelina has established.}
