In the Key of Pisces: Chris Martin

by Christina • March 3, 2016

“I definitely believe in God. How can you look at anything and not be overwhelmed by the miraculousness of it?” said Pisces singer-songwriter and Coldplay frontman, Chris Martin. There you have it. The sound of Coldplay has woven its way into the fabric of the past decade and a half — and it’s the words of Chris Martin we’re hearing. He is the band’s main songsmith, and it’s no wonder, he has Virgo Rising — a real wordsmith ascendant — so Mercury in Pisces rules this chart. Mercury is at 0° Pisces, which gives it an extra dose of dreamy poetry. […]

In the Key of Pisces: Bedrich Smetana

by Christina • March 2, 2016

This first fortnight of March is composers’ week. Yesterday was Chopin’s birthday; today the “father of Czech music”, Bedrich Smetana, was born in 1824. Smetana was a Czech patriot and one of the generation that rose up against the Austro-Hungarian Empire in the Revolutions of 1848. The musicologist Rosa Newmarch says Smetana’s three influences were “nationalism, realism and romanticism”. And his chart reflects this assertion beautifully. Smetana was born with the Jupiter-Neptune oppostion — quite helpful for a musician. Jupiter is in tribal Cancer; Neptune is in realistic Capricorn. Together they rule his Sun and Moon in romantic Pisces. On the morning of October […]

In The Key Of Pisces: Chopin

by Christina • March 1, 2016

Beauty, mystery, melancholy, passion, melody: let Chopin’s music take you into a wordless place. There is some dispute about his birthday, but I am sure it is today, March 1. Of course, his work endures for all time and all cultures — Neptune conjunct Saturn. His music makes private emotion universal. The depth and beauty of emotion: Pluto, Sun Venus in Pisces on the Descendant. The skill? Virgo Rising, Moon in Capricorn. This month Saturn is on Chopin’s natal Saturn, and the eclipse with all its crazy energy is across his Ascendant/Descendant axis. Let his music help you through the […]

In The Key Of Pisces: Johnny Cash and Erykah Badu

by Christina • February 26, 2016

Johnny Cash, Johnny Cash, Johnny Cash, Johnny Cash. Pisces Rising, Pisces Sun-Mercury-Mars opposite Neptune in Virgo. It was all about the music. The drink nearly killed him. Love saved him. He hurt. Oh and that black shirt? Moon in Scorpio — so deep and yet so simple. Born February 26, 1932. Erykah Badu — much much more than a soul singer: creator of dreams, excavator of African-American spirituality. No birth time for her, but possibly Moon in Pisces and definitely Sun-Mercury in Pisces squaring a super-philosophical conjunction of Neptune and Jupiter in Sagittarius. No wonder her first album was called […]

In The Key Of Pisces: Abida Parveen

by Christina • February 25, 2016

So far, we’ve been looking at a musician (or two) for the correct day of the Pisces, but today we’ll digress a little. Yesterday’s musician, George Harrison, is credited with popularising Indian music in the West. One of his most beautiful compositions My Sweet Lord, is a musical and religious blend of East and West. The song weaves together the words hallelujah, my sweet lord, hare Krishna in a way that’s reminiscent of a South Asian devotional song. This set me thinking about certain musical styles which seem Piscean — a kind of repetitive, loose, weaving sound — and classical Indian music […]

Pisces Musicians: George Harrison

by Christina • February 24, 2016

Today’s musician: George Harrison, the most sensitive Beatle, the one who found God and made a garden — for more on his astrology, click here. He was born either on February 24 or 25, give or take half an hour. But the 24th gives him a Rising Moon. Harrison’s only planet in Pisces is his Sun. What’s remarkable about his chart is the beautiful patterns of the aspects between the planets. As the youngest Beatle, Harrison didn’t get a chance to flex his songwriting muscle as much as he might have done. But when he did, he made this.

Pisces Musicians: Handel

by Christina • February 23, 2016

Imagine a time when the Thames was the busiest highway in London, and the king’s barge a most glorious water-borne rolls-royce of golden curlicues. What could be a lovelier accompaniment to a balmy summer evening bobbing along the river than music wafting across the water. King George I commissioned the most fashionable composer in London, George Friedrich Handel, to write just such a piece. The Water Music premiered on July 7, 1717 at around 8pm. It was a hit. The king asked for the suites to be played repeatedly on the trip from Whitehall to Chelsea and back again. Handel is, of course, much […]

Pisces Musicians: James Blunt

by Christina • February 22, 2016

English singer-songwriter James Blunt must have been eating Neptune crackers when he made this unbelievably Piscean video for his huge hit You’re Beautiful. He’s soaking wet for most of the performance, his shoes seem to play a central role and it ends with a dip in the ocean. He was born on February 22, 1974 with — New Moon in Pisces conjunct Mercury. When this single was released in 2005, Uranus, the awakener, and Mars had just sailed over Blunt’s Pisces planets.
