Kate Bush - July 08
30 July 1958 No Birth Time
Kate Bush, singer, songwriter, musician and music producer is one of the UK''s most successful solo female music performers with a career spanning thirty years - viz ''Wuthering Heights'', ''Babooshka''. Her style is described as eclectic and idiosyncratic so no surprise to find Uranus heavily emphasised in her chart. It sits close to her Leo Sun and both square onto a Mars in Taurus opposition to Neptune in Scorpio. With Uranus on the point of a T square she''s an innovator, a torch bearer for others, one who experiments and walks her own road. She''s essentially a rebel, one who likes the break the conventional mould. In a fixed sign it can also make her a law unto herself and not co-operative. She split from her first record company EMI early on since she wanted more personal control. A fixed sign Sun on the point of a T square suggest a personality who is driven to succeed, wants an audience and is fairly stubborn. In Leo it definitely suits an entertainer and performer.
Neptune, the planet which rules music, is highlighted in sexy Scorpio by a zany, inspirational square to Uranus, a creative square to the Sun and an opposition to energetic Mars in acquisitive Taurus. It certainly points to artistic musical abilities and also at someone who knows their own mind and knows what they want. Normally Mars Neptune likes publicity and the glamour of showbiz but she''s only ever done one tour and shuns the limelight often for years on end. Without a birth time it isn''t possible to say why she''s so reclusive but it''s possible she has a hidden 12th or 8th house Sun. She insists she wanted to bring her son up in peace. With a 6 am birth time and a retiring 12th house Sun, she''d also have a 4th house Jupiter Neptune which suggests a need for a happy home life, plus Saturn in the 5th which often goes with music producers especially.
Her song writing does have its dark side including controversial topics such as incest, suicide, murder, mental instability. This will stem from her Mars in Taurus trine Pluto and Mercury in Virgo and square Uranus. Mars Pluto will give her a fascination with power, control, death, and the deeper realities of life in their less pleasant aspect. Mars Uranus likes to shock.
With no birth time it''s difficult to say where she is in her life at the moment. 2008 is fairly betwixt and between with a slightly undermining Neptune trine Jupiter and quite jolting with Uranus square Saturn so she may be unhappy about some of the comments made about her - Saturn in Sagittarius tends to be hyper sensitive. But her Solar Arc Mars next year trines Jupiter which is high energy, exuberance, confidence and generally lucky. Though at the same time Pluto sextiles Neptune, going on to trine Mars in 10/11 which will put her under some pressure.
