Below are predictions for famous personalities such as Prince William, George W. Bush, John Howard, Madonna, and Bill Gates

Bush, George W.
In January 2007 Jupiter, the planet of expansion and optimism, crosses into the vital first house in George W. Bush’s horoscope. Rumours of a planned ‘surge’ in Iraq reflect the US President’s emotional optimism.

Within the first house of George W. Bush’s horoscope sit the planets Mercury and Pluto. Mercury represents the thinking process and communication. Pluto represents death and subsequent transformation and renewal. Clearly the President is thinking optimistically that by delivering a death blow to his opponents he will transform the disastrous situation that is unravelling in Iraq.

However between February and June 2007 Saturn, the planet in which represents defeat and depression, conjoins the planet in George W. Bush’s horoscope which governs friends and allies. This represents a serious thinning of what remains of his army of supporters.

The ancient astrological predictive technique called ‘secondary progressions’ reveals that over the next 12 months the US President is likely to suffer ‘death by a thousand cuts’ – he is in serious trouble well before his term in office is due to finish.

Written Jan 2007

Cage, Nicholas
2007 sees a big shift in Nicholas Cage screen persona. He takes on roles which are associated with the ‘hereafter’, and play characters with mystical and supernatural powers. This shift in his acting career will evolve in time to reflect a new sensitivity that will be reflected in his private life.

Cage’s screen persona will increasingly adopt the use subtle effects, ‘smoke and mirrors’, to portray characters ‘from the other side’. Cage’s awareness of the spiritual and psychic world also develops substantially over the next 12 months.

It is also likely that Nicholas Cage will give of his time to support charities and the underprivileged, on and off screen, over the next 18 months.

Written Jan 2007

Costello, Peter; Australian Treasurer
In March 2007 Peter Costello has an unwelcome surprise waiting for him on the home front. From that time onwards his career focus begins to slip as he experiences frustration and disillusionment.

It is interesting that his horoscope reveals these challenges at the same time as a similar scenario is echoed in John Howard’s horoscope.

March through to June/July 2007 is a difficult time for Costello as he struggles to adapt to a changing environment.

Written Jan 2007

Gates, Bill
Bill Gates is another prominent figure whose horoscope is afflicted by the sobering influence of depressive Saturn in 2007, especially in September 2007. His vision and capacity to dominate are reduced during the first half of 2007.

However his journey through 2007 is not a total disaster.

In March, May and October 2007 he receives help from powerful friends from abroad, and also from legal representatives.

In 2008 and 2009 Bill Gates life path goes through a period of expansion and renewal.

Written Jan 2007

Howard, John; Australian Prime Minister
John Howard’s horoscope suggests that he is likely to be going through a depressive period in the first half of 2007. His ability to act in an independent manner becomes more curtailed through the course of the year, as he has comes under pressure to satisfy different interest groups.

In the second half of 2007 John Howard is seeking an exit strategy that will allow him to save face and leave on his own terms. Unfortunately he may not be allowed this luxury.

Written Jan 2007

Humphries, Barry
Barry Humphries is a ‘little under the weather’ in the first half of 2007 as the planet of depression and karma transverses his point of career and reputation. This would normally suggest a time of career re-evaluation.

In 2007 Barry Humphries is also softening his approach to life, and finds it more difficult to maintain the same high levels of energy we have witnessed in the past. Some of his life structures are dissolving as he endeavours to make sense of his life.

In March and October of 2007, as well as January of 2008, his mind awakens to new possibilities. He may be the recipient of some very surprising news which will cause him to re-evaluate his financial position

Written Jan 2007

Madonna
Madonna is experiencing a testing time when she is likely to feel cut off and unappreciated. While everyone has a need to be appreciated, this need is especially strong in those whose horoscopes show a strong Leo emphasis, who have such a strong need for praise and adulation. Consequently feeling unloved and unappreciated is always a special challenge for our Leo friends.

Middler, Bette
Bette Middler’s horoscope reveals that in the first half of 2007 the planet which governs relationships and finances is under siege.

In March and October, as well as January 2008, Bette is making changes in order to free up her life. These are times when she strives for independence. By the beginning of 2008 we should see the new Bette Middler strutting her stuff.

Written Jan 2007

Newton, Bert; Australian TV personality
Bert Newton was born with the star Regulus conjoined to his Ascendant. The Ascendant represents that part of our personality which we project – our appearance and outer persona. Regulus is known amongst astrologers for its associations with success and fame. Bert Newton’s prominence and success on Australian television has certainly been ‘written in the stars’.

While the second half of 2006 and the first half of 2007 shows the planet of restriction and depression prominent in his horoscope, this influence is counter-acted in March, May and October 2007, as the planet of optimism and expansion exerts its influence.

Written Jan 2007

Prince Willam
The young prince has two of the six royal stars conjunct planets in his natal horoscope. Spica is conjunct Pluto and Antares is conjunct Mercury. While these conjunctions do not guarantee that he will ascend to the throne, they do suggest that his odds are very good, should he live long enough.

Prince William’s horoscope is remarkable for having four planets is very good condition, described by astrologers as being in their ‘dignity or exaltation’. The only planet which is in a weak condition is Mars, which rules his position and reputation. In the sign of Libra it shows that the assertive drives are weakened by excessive diplomacy. It also suggests that he may sacrifice position (kingship?) for the sake of a relationship. With the fixed star Caput Algol conjunct Venus in his horoscope, there is also a suggestion that he might ‘lose his head’ over love.

In January 2007 Pluto, the planet of death and rebirth, crosses his Ascendant. This is an exceptionally rare and significant time in anyone’s life, and occurs only once every 250 years. Pluto is associated with transformation and regeneration, hich normally takes place after something significant has been sacrificed to make way for the new. Natal Pluto is in the sign of relationships, and it is placed in the area of the horoscope associated with overseas and spirituality. Overseas adventures, perhaps associated with the military, may place his life in danger. This Pluto cycle influences Prince Williams’ horoscope for most of 2007.

Towards the end of 2007 Jupiter, the planet of optimism and expansion, also crosses his Ascendant, showing a new found confidence and sense of adventure.

Written Jan 2007

Spielberg, Steven
In 2007 Jupiter, the planet which rules Steven Spielberg’s career and reputation, is very active in his horoscope. This is a very active year for Spielberg. In December 2008 Spielberg’s creative endeavours are recognised. In early 2008 Spielberg’s industrious endeavours receive support from financial backers.

Written Jan 2007

Vanstone, Amanda; Liberal Senator for South Australia
In February and October 2007 Amanda Vanstone is in the public spotlight. At these times she is flushed with success and winning battles.

Amanda Vanstone’s horoscope reveals that her Moon is placed in the sign of Leo, showing that she delights in glory and recognition.

This Moon is opposed by Mars, the planet of action and war. Amanda Vanstone is known as a fighter. With Mars in the sign of Aquarius Amanda Vanstone likes to support the disadvantaged.

Mars also rules her Ascendant, enabled her to enjoy the ‘cut and thrust’ of political life. Amanda Vanstone needs a battle to fight and a cause to support to feel truly alive.

Written Jan 2007

Williams, Robin
In 2007 Robin Williams transforms the structure of his life. He goes through a phase of death and regeneration, during which he eliminates from his life outmoded structures which no longer support him. During very significant time he has the opportunity to overcome his internal emotional barriers and renew his life. Travel or overseas influences may play a part in this process.

During the last few months of 2007 he receives financial assistance and recognition. Through the course of 2008 Robin Williams will emerge with a renewed strength.
