A Capricorn Under Seige

Tiger Woods please step aside so Mel Gibson can take center stage. It looks like it's Mel's turn to have his dirty laundry hung out for the world to see. I haven't the time nor inclination to analyze Gibson's entire astrological profile but as an astrologer it's near impossible for me not to at least take a little peek.

Mel is a Cancer rising indicating that Mel needs to express his emotions and feelings. His Moon in the sign of Libra isn't the greatest placement for his moon sign because this cool detached analytical sign is far better at rationalizing emotions and feelings than actually feeling them.

His Sun in Capricorn in the sixth house tells me that he must use his ability to rationalize emotions and feelings and adapt them in a practical, structured and authoritative way. The Sun in the sixth house says that he needs to work in order to feel he has a purpose but at times will be resentful about it because a sixth house Sun is service oriented and when over worked will complain about not being appreciated. Deep down inside Mel is probably pissed off because he always feels more like an employee than a boss.

So essentially we have a guy who is more in touch with the idea of feelings and not the feelings themselves. Mel really isn't the the warm and fuzzy type. Mel's Moon in Libra charm can make anyone feel he's a real nice guy. In fact Mel's first impulse is to be nice and to push back and ignore any underlying assertive agressive behavior, that is until the Mars, Saturn conjunction in Scorpio kicks in. Mel has a real dark side that actually enjoys being cruel. Let us not forget that his Mars, Saturn conjunction is in the fifth house of pleasure.

The dispositor of his nasty conjunction is Pluto in the third house which means when, and not if Mel blows, he'll blow so hard that everyone will hear it. After all isn't the third house the house of communications? Let's not forget his Jupiter in the third house will help him to do it in a big way too.

Now that I've got a handle on Mr. Gibson I will continue and go over his transits tomorrow for your reading pleasure. Looks like Oksana Grigorieva got a little more than she bargained for.
