So sad about Brittany Murphy passing!
I loved her in Clueless, that Eminem movie & even in Riding In Cars With Boys, where she played alongside Drew Barrymore. And oddly enough I was thinking about her yesterday, when I realised she was going to be in The Expendables - the ludicrously fabulous new action movie being filmed that stars every big action hero of the last two decades AND Mickey Rourke…
I was just thinking what an awesome comeback it would be because she’s actually really talented, even though Just Married (which she co-starred in along with her then-lover Ashton Kutcher) was awful…
But she has long been plagued by stories of being “difficult” – Hollywoodspeak for drug fiend, often, no? – and death by cardiac arrest at 32 has a sadly cokeheady whiff to it does it not?
I don’t like gazing at the astro of the recently passed – too macabre – but i will make two quick observations re her chart…She has Mars in early Leo and due to the lengthy Mars in Leo phase now, Mars has just trined her Neptune in Saggo twice & was heading back for a 2nd-in-a-row Mars Returns. This is a time when anyone with such stars would be high on their own genius, ego and potentially hubris and/or aggression. She’d just gotten fired from a film for being “difficult” and her husband is, by all accounts, REAL difficult. So not exactly the bridle of soberiety style of partner.
She also had Saturn in late Leo, being opposed by the Jupiter, Neptune and Chiron in Aquarius. If she WAS doing anything stimulating/transcendental or whatever, Neptune coming up to oppose your Saturn would have to be the worst time possible. When Neptune and Saturn are at work together, you live clean. I have them natally trined & i have to watch it even with coffee.
Brittany was a Sun-Moon-Venus-Uranus in Scorpio woman – totally individuated & charismatic & astro-fiends, note that her North Node/Pluto in Libra is squared by the Eclipse degrees of Jan & July 2010…
