What Kind of Dad Will Larry Birkhead Be?

This post is long overdue, but judging from traffic and search results, it seems people are still very interested in Larry Birkhead and daughter Dannielynn, so I took a look at their two charts together. I must say, I've always thought Larry seemed like the most sincere of the lot of people competing for the infant, but I was a little concerned by some of the aspects between him and his daughter.

First, the good news: Larry's birth time is not known, but his Moon in Virgo is likely to fall on one of Dannielynn's Virgo planets: the Sun, Mercury, or Venus -- and/or possibly one of the asteroids, relationship-oriented Juno or nurturing Vesta.

The doting Moon in Virgo suggests an attentive parent who is attuned to taking care of a child's needs. And Larry's Venus in grounded, paternal Capricorn forms a harmonious trine with Dannielynn's Virgo Sun and a sextile with her Jupiter in Scorpio.

But there could be a dark side to the sextile between Dannielynn's Jupiter in Scorpio (fortune through inheritance) and Larry's social-climbing Capricorn Venus, i.e. the potential for him to take advantage of her estate. Larry's Venus also sextiles Dannielynn's retrograde Uranus in Pisces, which tends to make their relationship rather volatile.

And there are other synastry aspects that are not so positive. Larry's Saturn squaring Dannielynn's Sun might be read as another paternal, protective aspect, but factor in his Mars-Saturn opposition forming a T-square with Dannielynn's Sun and there is a potential for him to vent some anger toward her.

Further, Larry's Sun on Dannielynn's Chiron could suggest the kind of parent who pushes her buttons, seeking out her weak spots to pick on them -- even if he thinks he is teaching her a lesson or doing her good. An out-of-sign trine between his Sun and her Mars reinforces the idea of tempers readily flaring up between them.

I sincerely hope that these aspects are just the signs of normal father-daughter rebellion and that the nurturing aspects of the Virgo Moon dynamic is what predominates in their relationship. But it might be that little Dannielynn grows up to have a troubled relationship with her dad -- which would be sadly understandable, considering the traumatic circumstances of her birth and formative days.
