Katy Perry and Justin Trudeau<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

In a week\u2019s headlines wrought with sadness, sorrow and tragedy, I am choosing this week to write about an unlikely romance, between a pop star and a politician \u2013 between Katy Perry and Justin Trudeau.\u00a0 They were openly seen together in public, last weekend, though rumoured to have been seeing each other for a little while. Trudeau had parted from a long marriage, and Katy had split up from actor Orlando Bloom.\u00a0 What has brought them together, astrologically?<\/p>\n

Katy Perry Birth Chart<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

We are fortunate enough to have birth times for both of them.\u00a0 Katy has the Sun in Scorpio, Moon in Scorpio, and Ascendant in Scorpio.\u00a0 A triple Scorpio! – that is quite rare!\u00a0 Added to that, the Sun in her chart is exactly conjunct Pluto, the ruler of Scorpio, so you could argue she is a quadruple Scorpio.\u00a0 And of course, with Pluto in its own sign of Scorpio, and in addition Mercury\/Saturn in Scorpio, I could go on\u2026<\/p>\n

The Moon in her chart is exactly conjunct Saturn, so she may have the Ivory Tower Archetype. Mercury sextiles Mars in her chart, giving her the Critic Archetype.\u00a0 Mercury closely conjunct the Ascendant, rising, suggests the Teacher Archetype.\u00a0 There are plenty of Archetypes to see here (I will shortly be writing about the Scorpio Archetypes).\u00a0 Her magnetism comes from all that Scorpio, plus a conjunction of Venus and Uranus.\u00a0 Mars conjunct Jupiter gives her great Gusto!<\/p>\n

Life and Career<\/em><\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

Katy was born in Santa Barbara, California.\u00a0 She had a very strict upbringing.\u00a0 Both her parents were Pentecostal pastors. Her earliest musical inspiration was Alanis Morisette, and her parents allowed her a vocal training.\u00a0 They also bought her a guitar for her 13th<\/sup> birthday. She released a gospel album at the age of 16, which flopped.\u00a0 It wasn\u2019t until 2008, at the age of 24, that she achieved success with an album entitled \u201cOne of the Boys\u201d, and the hugely successful single from that album: \u201cI Kissed a Girl\u201d (which was co-written with Dr Luke).\u00a0 The single was released on 28th<\/sup> April 2008, with Saturn sextile her natal Pluto (an important and solid transit).\u00a0 From there, she went on to make history as one of the best-selling music artists of all time, and is among the wealthiest.<\/p>\n

Relationships<\/em><\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

In mid-2009 she met Russell Brand, became engaged on 31st<\/sup> December of that year, and married him on 23rd<\/sup> October 2010 in India.\u00a0 Their synastry?:<\/p>\n

Her Moon\/Saturn was trine his Saturn; \u00a0her Venus was sextile his Pluto; his Moon\/Jupiter was trine her Midheaven; his Venus was sextile his North Node; and his Mars was trine her Uranus.\u00a0 That\u2019s a strong attraction, but the marriage only lasted 14 months, Brand ended the marriage by text, and Katy was by all accounts heartbroken.\u00a0 She responded cryptically to the later allegations about his sexual misconduct, saying she knew the \u201ctruth\u201d.<\/p>\n

She began a relationship with the actor Orlando Bloom in 2016.\u00a0 Their interaspects are not spectacular, but what they did have were some real similarities in their aspects, so they would have understood each other.\u00a0 Orlando\u2019s South Node was conjunct Katy\u2019s Chiron, and his Uranus was conjunct her Mercury (a mental compatibility).\u00a0 The relationship lasted until June this year.\u00a0 Katy has a four year old daughter.<\/p>\n

In the meantime, Katy went into Space on the Blue Origin NS-31, with five other women, on 14th<\/sup> April.\u00a0 Mars was sextile her natal North Node \u2013 a brave karmic adventure.\u00a0 Perhaps the flight altered her perspective on life.<\/p>\n

She has accomplished a great deal musically in her 40-odd years, but I have to add a personal note: that I enjoyed her performance in the Just Eat advert circa 2022!<\/p>\n

Justin Trudeau<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

Justin Trudeau served as the 23rd<\/sup> Prime Minister of Canada from 2015 to 14th<\/sup> March this year.\u00a0 He announced the separation from his wife on 2nd<\/sup> August 2023; they have three children together.\u00a0 Like Orlando, Justin is a Capricornian, which on paper is harmonious with Scorpio.\u00a0 Justin has a T-square between the Sun, Mars and Pluto, which is dynamic and fiery.\u00a0 He has much of the warrior within him.\u00a0 His Sun is exactly trine his Ascendant on the 5th<\/sup> House cusp, making him very creative, with leadership potential (one factor in his political career as Prime Minister of Canada).\u00a0 He has Saturn closely trine Pluto \u2013 The Strategist Archetype.\u00a0 Charts are often inherited in their characteristics, and his father Pierre, who governed Canada before him, had Saturn exactly sextile Pluto, a close match.\u00a0 Justin\u2019s Saturn is right at the top of his chart, conjunct his careerpoint the Midheaven, which also points to politics \u2013 he seems to have been born into it.\u00a0 He has a bright, problem-solving mind, as evinced by Mercury conjunct Jupiter and trine Chiron.\u00a0 He has the capacity for loyalty, in Venus trine Saturn, exactly sextile Neptune and closely trine Pluto.\u00a0 Venus is at 3 degrees Aquarius, where transformative Pluto had been working on his love life over the last year.<\/p>\n

The strong synastry links between the Trudeau father and son is as follows: their Ascendants were sextile; Justin\u2019s Sun squared Pierre\u2019s Chiron; Justin\u2019s Venus was sextile Pierre\u2019s Chiron; Justin\u2019s Jupiter was trine Pierre\u2019s Moon; Justin\u2019s Neptune was trine Pierre\u2019s Chiron; and Justin\u2019s Ascendant was conjunct Pierre\u2019s Mars.<\/p>\n

Synastry between Katy and Justin <\/em><\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

What does the relationship look like astrologically?<\/p>\n

Their Suns are sextile within 1 degree of each other; their Venuses are sextile within 3 degrees \u2013 two good indications.\u00a0 Katy\u2019s Moon is conjunct Justin I.C., which may assist a feeling of security for both.\u00a0 Katy\u2019s Venus is conjunct Justin\u2019s Neptune, so there may be idealism and\/or illusion present.\u00a0 Justin Moon is trine Katy\u2019s Midheaven, which may benefit her career.\u00a0 Justin\u2019s Mercury is conjunct Katy\u2019s Mars, which may sharpen her Inner Critic Archetype.\u00a0 And Justin\u2019s Mars is sextile Katy\u2019s North Node \u2013 old past life battles may have drawn them together, and that may encourage joint activism for shared causes.<\/p>\n

Current Transits<\/em><\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

The transits of last weekend when their relationship was aired show important transits for Justin.\u00a0 He had Pluto (which is still conjunct his natal Venus) trine his natal Pluto (self-empowerment), Pluto trine his natal Saturn, creating an Air Grand Trine, and reinforcing his natal Saturn-Pluto trine (Strategist Archetype).\u00a0 He also had Uranus on his natal Saturn, creating shock changes in his life.<\/p>\n

Contrastingly, Katy had Pluto square<\/em> to her Pluto\/Sun.\u00a0 There may be a sense of surrender in that, though they are both strong personalities.\u00a0 Alternatively, it may be that she has so much Scorpio in her that Pluto square her Pluto\/Sun represents a new level of mastery.\u00a0 The North Node in addition was sextile her natal Mars (a new karmic relationship with a male).\u00a0 Katy is a deep character, and it may be that she is currently lost in a new transformation.<\/p>\n

That\u2019s the end of my surmising.\u00a0 Katy in particular has an intense relationship history, and I am not able to predict the course of this relationship, at least at this moment in time.\u00a0 But as with everything, Katy will go deep.\u00a0 Justin will be strong.\u00a0 The name Justin means \u201cjust and righteous\u201d.\u00a0 Let\u2019s hope the relationship adds kindness to their lives.<\/p>\n

Aspects<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

A full programme this week, beginning with Chiron opposite Venus today, so that may bring up issues which need healing, especially for relationships.\u00a0 It may be a case of “Now I am nice and settled, what is next for me to deal with?”.\u00a0 The issues may be connected with one’s inner female, or one’s relationships.\u00a0 It may be an artistic conundrum.<\/p>\n

In the last hour of the day, relationship or money issues may continue to pre-occupy us, with a square between Jupiter and Venus.\u00a0 You may be confronted with an awkward social situation.\u00a0 Behaviour may be gauche or a little inappropriate, and that may have consequences.\u00a0 You may be socializing when you don’t feel like it, or feel that you have to force jollity.\u00a0 There will be a meaning to it – there always is!\u00a0 Even if it is one remark which makes you think deeply, or helps you to realize what you don’t need.\u00a0 Social non-conformists won\u2019t care, but conformists may lament the lack of sticking to the rules.<\/p>\n

On Tuesday (4th<\/sup>) there are three aspects to Mars, so expect fiery energy and people standing up for themselves, including you.\u00a0 In the early hours Mars trines Neptune, which may bring vivid dreams but involving situations which resolve themselves, possibly at a higher level.\u00a0 Later in the day under this aspect the peaceful spiritual warrior can flourish skilfully.\u00a0 You can combine your passions with your spiritual path.\u00a0 Meditation with movement is favoured, e.g. yoga, tai chi and qijong.\u00a0 Peaceful demonstrations also chime well with this aspect.<\/p>\n

At lunchtime, Mars moves into Sagittarius, a placement which can be a green light to new exercise regimes and sports initiatives, foreign transactions, and further education studies.\u00a0 If you are seeking to pursue a line of life philosophy with gusto in order to test out if it actually works, then pick your mantra and go for it!\u00a0 You’ll have the energy at least, though success is not absolutely guaranteed.\u00a0 There could be an injection of energy and light to proceedings.<\/p>\n

Late afternoon brings tension, however, for Uranus opposes Mars at that time, and tempers could flare.\u00a0 This aspect can be disruptive, and incident-prone.\u00a0 Try to minimize health and safety risks under this aspect, especially in connection with cars, dogs, machinery and electrical appliances.\u00a0 You may find people extra excitable and calmness may be a valuable commodity. Brush up your meditational skills, and be a port in the storm.<\/p>\n

If it seems that the tension doesn\u2019t dissipate, it may at least change form, building up to the Full Moon at 13 degrees Taurus at lunchtime on Wednesday (5th<\/sup>).\u00a0 Your emotions may be stirred and you may be motivated to try to resolve in an issue you care passionately about (Taurus and the Sun in opposite sign Scorpio are Fixed signs).\u00a0 If you are of an artistic bent, you can plough this feeling into your creativity.<\/p>\n

A more constructive Mars aspect finds us early afternoon on Thursday (6th<\/sup>), in the shape of Mars sextile Pluto, Pluto so you may have the energy to push through a pet project.\u00a0 It is a dynamic and active aspect, and you may find yourself spontaneously clearing clutter.<\/p>\n

Next up is an ingress late that evening, of Venus entering Scorpio.\u00a0 Emotions and passions could be heightened.\u00a0 This is a time when deep feelings can be experienced and expressed.\u00a0 Her previous sojourn through Libra focussed on relationships, and on entering Scorpio the quality of relationship deepens.\u00a0 You can take a relationship to the next level.\u00a0 Venus will change sign again on 30th<\/sup> November, so make the most of the opportunity.<\/p>\n

In the early hours of Saturday (8th<\/sup>) we have another ingress, that of Uranus re-entering Taurus whilst in retrograde motion.\u00a0 A temporary sojourn, it may highlight unfinished business from the last seven years, which you may need to attend to.\u00a0 There may have been some groundbreaking moves by yourself, or the Universe, which need to make the ground workable.\u00a0 In order to proceed with some newer initiatives from Uranus\u2019 recent entry into Gemini, you may need to finish other projects or lay the groundwork more smoothly.<\/p>\n

A final test for relationships and\/or money on that day, also in the early hours.\u00a0 You may be wrestling with such questions, and sleep may be fitful as a result.\u00a0 Pluto will square Venus and so there may be deeper issues to unravel in relationships.\u00a0 Deep feeling issues may be preying on your mind.\u00a0 These will require some psychological soul-searching for a true interpretation, and may spur on honest-as-you-can-be interpersonal communication.<\/p>\n

The last aspect of the day and week, brings hope and some resolution, with the Sun trine the North Node, a kind influence.\u00a0 It links karma with harmony and love, and reminds us that love is a force underlying a great deal of human interaction, e.g. standing up for one’s country, and protecting loved ones.\u00a0 It also reminds us of the Hindu law of ahimsa<\/em>, or harmlessness, required to neutralize and promote good karma (and Kamala).\u00a0 The right side of Karma\u2026<\/p>\n
