Gillian Anderson
Born 9 August 1968, 6.00 am, Chicago/IL, USA
The X-Files star and mother of three was literally born to take centre stage: As she is a “double” Leo, due to Leo being the sign of her Ascendant as well, it’s impossible not to notice the air of confidence surrounding her. Warm-hearted, generous and proud, she is also full of determination and can stand up for herself. This is emphasized even more so by Mars and Mercury joining in in Leo, which is brilliant for an actress. After all, she did choose to audition for the X Files because “the script involved a strong, independent, intelligent woman as a lead character"! These constellations make her a captivating personality and enable her to believe in herself and her abilities. Gillian is also an absolutely outspoken woman and very versatile. Once she sets her eyes on something, the desire to prove herself will probably take over. And she’s certainly been helped in her career by a rather favourable Jupiter, the planet of luck and success!
Being a person who was born to present herself - Leo loves to “put on a show” and entertain -, she may feel just right finding herself in the centre of attention. Her core task is to discover her talents and assets, and to push forward in an outpour of creative energy. For this reason, in her life most things are likely to revolve around personal issues, but also around those of people that she feels responsible for. With all that Leo influence, she’s inclined to take up the reins!
Her chart shows that the actress has a quite unconventional approach in love matters. And she tends to feel “differently” about her relationships: There is an experimental side to her (she used to have a relationship with another girl during her school days), and she doesn’t like to be too fixated and emotionally attached. This can sometimes mean she quickly connects with people but it’s rather short-lived. She very much enjoys being in a relationship, but she’s a bit of an explorer and her need for change and variety is very dominant: To her expressing love is always about enjoying the freedom to be just herself and not be judged. All of this is mostly described by a tension between her Venus and the rebellious Moon in Aquarius, which makes it difficult for her to “feel in a way that she can approve of” – hence the tendency to try and get a taste of all the variety there is. But she has made the best of it and is never ashamed for anything or feels uncomfortable about that experience back in her youth. Now, given Jupiter’s recent shift into Leo, Gillian will be a force to be reckoned with!
