II", "4Ever", "Hot Girls", and her debut single "5 Minutes".

In addition to her solo work and collaborative efforts with Missy Elliott, Lil' Mo worked with former associate Ja Rule, with whom she penned chart-topping hits like "Put It on Me" and "I Cry".

* Alistair Hulett was the singer of the folk punk band, Roaring Jack, which he formed in Australia in the early 1980s. In 1995, Hulett co-founded the Australian Trotskyist organisation Socialist Alternative, while often playing political benefits and rallies with Roaring Jack.

James Hong (American actor and director)

* James Hong's acting career spans more than 61 years and includes more than 350 roles in film, television, and video games.

Hong's well-known screen roles include the immortal ghost sorcerer Lo Pan in John Carpenter’s cult classic Big Trouble in Little China, the eye manufacturer Chew in Blade Runner, Evelyn Mulwray's loyal and vigilant butler in Chinatown, and the maître d' in the well-known Seinfeld episode "The Chinese Restaurant."

Known as the "man of a thousand faces," Hong has Neptune opposite (and ruling) the Sun in Pisces in the 12th house, with the Sun also widely conjunct his Pisces Ascendant. Perhaps Neptune could be called the "planet of a thousand faces," especially when it's personalized along with its sign (Pisces) and house (12th)!

Lou Diamond Phillips (American actor and director)

* Lou Diamond Phillips' big breakthrough came when he starred in the 1987 film La Bamba as the Chicano rock 'n' roll star Ritchie Valens. Phillips earned a supporting actor Golden Globe Award nomination for his role as a gangster in Stand and Deliver (1988) and a Tony Award nomination for his role as the King in The King and I (1996). In 2007, Phillips joined the touring troupe for Lerner and Loewe's Camelot in the role of King Arthur.

Phillips is very close to the Native American community. In 1990, he was adopted by the Sioux tribe, although he is Cherokee by blood. "Star Keeper" is his Sioux name.

Phillips has an overload of solar energy in his chart which reflects his success in regal roles (and perhaps the choice of his stellar Sioux name): Moon in Leo in the 12th (the house of film), Leo North Node right on his Leo Ascendant, and Uranus in Leo ruling and opposing his Sun from the 1st house (in Mutual Reception).

Joseph Mohr (Austrian Roman Catholic priest and writer)

* Joseph Mohr wrote the words to the Christmas carol "Silent Night" [German: "Stille Nacht, heilige Nacht"]. He had Mercury unaspected in Capricorn in the 10th House. The song was first performed by a choir with Mohr on guitar because the local church organ wasn't working. An 1820 manuscript of the song surfaced publicly in 1995, having been held in a private collection for 175 years. Written by Mohr, it states that he wrote the words in 1816. They were put to music in 1818. The U.S. copyright office has registered 733 versions of the song, recognized as the best known and most popular of carols. Unaspected planets can work in weird and wonderful ways.

Baccio Bandinelli (Italian Renaissance sculptor, draughtsman and painter)

* Pluto and its sign Scorpio are associated with intense jealousy. Baccio Bandinelli had Pluto in Scorpio opposite his Ascendant (smack-bang on his 7th cusp) ruling the Sun in the last degree of Scorpio (also in the 7th). Notorious for his envy (of other artists), he obsessively imitated the works of Michelangelo whom he saw as a rival, and he tried to sabotage Benvenuto Cellini's career. Bandinelli's Venus (arts, values, relationships) ruled his Ascendant from Pluto's domain: the 8th House. His Venus was also conjunct Michelangelo's Ascendant.

NATAL DATA and ASTROLOGY CHART

BIRTH DATA: Bartolommeo Brandini, 12 November 1493 OS, 15:25 (3:25 PM) LMT (-0:45), Florence, Italy (43n46, 11e15). ASC: 8 Taurus. RR: B (from biography, but birth records are indicated). SOURCE: Sy Scholfield cites birth documents quoted in "Baccio Bandinelli and art at the Medici court: a corpus of early modern sources, Volume 251" by Louis Alexander Waldman (American Philosophical Society, 2004), p. 7: "born in Florence (an hour before sunset) and baptized the following day . . . In the earlier literature BB's birthdate was often given as 1488, based on the erroneous assumption that the baptismal record of his uncle, Bartolomeo di Viviano di Bartolomeo, dated 7 October 1488 (Doc. 11), referred to him. In the 'Libri d'età' of the Archivio delle Tratte, however, the correct birthdate is corroborated: 'Messer Bartolomeo di Michelagnolo di Viviano Bandinelli adì 12 di novembre 1493' (ASF, Tratte, 81 [ex 444bis], fol. 9). 21. 1493, November 13." Scholfield calculates sunset at 4:25pm so an hour earlier makes 3:25pm.

Wilfred Thesiger, 1910–2003 (British explorer, travel writer & photographer)

* Wilfred Thesiger had vagabond Jupiter in the 9th on his MC and ruling his Sagittarian 12th house, translating into a life of nomadic exploration: he crossed parts of Arabia by foot and camel, and trudged through the marshlands of southern Iraq. His Sun is all but unaspected in literary, travel-loving and multi-cultural Gemini; he wrote various travel books including Arabian Sands (1959) and The Marsh Arabs (1964). Photographic Neptune in accumulative Cancer is square its ruler Moon in pioneering Aries: Thesiger donated his vast and original collection of 23,000 negatives to the Pitt Rivers Museum, Oxford.

Casey Wilson (American actress, comedian, screenwriter)

* Casey Wilson has a rare Slingshot shape in her chart (All the planets are in less that 120° of the circle - actually less than 90° - except for a conjunction of Moon-Chiron in Taurus which is practically unaspected bar an opposition with Mercury in Scorpio). Wilson has laugh-out-loud Jupiter (in the 9th, the house of comedy) conjunct Saturn, ruler of her Capricorn Ascendant. She excels as a comedian, having shot to fame with a two-season stint as a cast member on Saturday Night Live from 2008 to 2009. She was the first SNL cast member to have been born in the 1980s. Her most memorable work on SNL included celebrity impressions of Rachael Ray, Elizabeth Dole, Elizabeth Taylor, Katy Perry, Jennifer Aniston (and so on), as well as sexed-up original characters such as Dusty Velvet, "the paralyzed stripper" and Toni Ward, co-host of "The Cougar Den."

Michael Zühlke‏ (German pornstar)

* What does a guy need to become a pornstar? Michael Zühlke‏ (alias Pornfighter Long John) has a 23.5 cm (9.25 inch) genital appendage which no doubt helped, but certainly so did his Scorpio stellium including Mars in the 9th House. Sagittarius and the 9th are all about abundance and excess. Zühlke‏ has Pisces on his ascendant ruled by Neptune in Sagg in the 9th: he has performed in or produced 2300 erotic films. Venus on the MC in Sagittarius can translate into physical intimacy with a lot of young females. Zühlke claims to have had sex with 4888 women, many times in gang-bangs. For the sheer sake of pleasure, Jupiter in Taurus (in mutual reception with Venus on the MC) can make for one very happy and very lucky guy. And perhaps also, a very worn out one!

Abridged translation: On November 10, 1976 in the delivery room of the Berlin Charité (hospital), I came into the world at 14.30 o'clock.

Mick Fanning (Australian professional surfer)

* Mick Fanning has recently become a triple world surfing champion, having won the 2007, 2009 and 2013 ASP World Tours.

His Taurus Ascendant is ruled by Venus (conjunct Mercury) in watery Cancer, indicating a love of the ocean. Venus is in mutual reception with the Moon in Libra, surely keeping him balanced on his surfboard. Fanning is nicknamed "White Lightning" because his style is lightning fast: electrical Uranus in powerful Scorpio squares and rules his MC.

Check out the awesome pipeline and rip-curl shots on his website (www.mickfanning.com.au).

Edward Everett Horton, 1886–1970 (American character actor)

* Edward Everett Horton — best known to the Babyboomers and Gen-Xers as the venerable narrator of the "Fractured Fairy Tales" segment in the animated cartoon TV series, The Rocky & Bullwinkle Show (1959-1964) — had Mars and Mercury each devoid of Ptolemaic aspects while in mutual reception (yet separated by a wide-orbed and fracturing quincunx).

Jupiter (ruler of his Sagittarius Ascendant) was conjunct Uranus and the MC and opposite the Sun in Pisces — a great combination for a character actor.

WIKIPEDIA BLURB

Edward Everett Horton (March 18, 1886 – September 29, 1970) had a long career in film, theater, radio, television and voice work for animated cartoons. He is especially known for his work in the films of Fred Astaire and Ginger Rogers.

Horton starred in many comedy features in the 1930s, usually playing a mousy fellow who put up with domestic or professional problems to a certain point, and then finally asserted himself for a happy ending. He is best known, however, for his work as a character actor in supporting roles. Some of his noteworthy films include The Front Page (1931), Trouble in Paradise (1932), Alice in Wonderland (1933), The Gay Divorcee (1934), Top Hat (1935, one of several Astaire/Rogers films in which Horton appeared), Danger - Love at Work (1937), Lost Horizon (1937), Holiday (1938), Here Comes Mr. Jordan (1941), Arsenic and Old Lace (1944), Pocketful of Miracles (1961), It's a Mad, Mad, Mad, Mad World (1963), and Sex and the Single Girl (1964).

In 1962, he portrayed the character 'Uncle Ned' in three episodes of the CBS television series Dennis the Menace. In 1965, he played the medicine man, Roaring Chicken, in the ABC sitcom F Troop. He parodied this role, portraying "Chief Screaming Chicken" on ABC's Batman as a pawn to Vincent Price's Egghead in the villain's attempt to take control of Gotham City.

Kim Fowley (American record producer, singer, impresario, songwriter, musician, filmmaker, radio actor)

* Kim Fowley is best known for his role behind a string of novelty and cult pop rock singles in the 1960s, and for managing the all-female rock band The Runaways in the 1970s. He has the very musical and female combination of Venus in Cancer in the 4th House (at the apex of a Cardinal T-square involving an opposition of the ruling Moon and Jupiter). Fowley has been described as "one of the most colorful characters in the annals of rock & roll" and as "a shadowy cult figure well outside the margins of the mainstream." His tight T-square involves Mars in the last degree of Capricorn opposite Pluto in the first degree of Leo, all square Saturn in the first degree of Taurus. There's enough tension in that pattern alone to make for a very driven and compelling personality, not to mention Pluto conjunct Sun (his autobiography is called Lord of Garbage).

SOURCE: Sy Scholfield (©) quotes Kim Fowley, Lord of Garbage (New York: Kicks, 2012): "July 21, 1939. That was the day . . . KIM FOWLEY—Kim Vincent Fowley—did show up, kicking and screaming, ejected at precisely 9:46 PM from the loins of debutante-cum-starlet Shelby Payne, at St. Vincent's Hospital in Los Angeles. Shelby's first child. Doug Fowley's first son."

"Doc" Watson, 1923–2012 (American musician, songwriter)

* "Doc" Watson had accomplished Saturn in Libra on his Ascendant in mutual reception with musical Venus in Capricorn. He won seven Grammy awards as well as a Grammy Lifetime Achievement Award. Libra is an air sign associated with stringed instruments. Watson is widely acknowledged as a guitar icon, particularly for his masterly flatpicking skills, i.e. plucking his guitar with a triangle-shaped plectrum. He has a triangular Grand Water Trine involving a twangy Sun-Uranus conjunction in Pisces, Jupiter in Scorpio and its ruler Pluto in Cancer on the MC.

WIKIPEDIA BLURB

Arthel Lane "Doc" Watson (March 3, 1923 – May 29, 2012) was an American guitarist, songwriter and singer of bluegrass, folk, country, blues and gospel music. Watson's flatpicking skills and knowledge of traditional American music are highly regarded. He performed with his son Merle for over 15 years until Merle's death in 1985 in an accident on the family farm.
