A few weeks ago I published my first e-issue of Cosmic Comics. Despite my obvious limitations as a cartoonist (Jack Kirby I am not) I've decided to continue the series with a somewhat less that serious look at the foibles of each of the Sun signs. I'm starting with Sagittarius only because this is the first joke that came to me but I will hopefully get around all the signs before I'm finished.

Justin Bieber Gets Tough
Justin Bieber scored multiple victories at last week’s American Music Awards ceremony. He won Artist of the Year, Favorite Pop/Rock Male Artist and Favorite Pop/Rock Album. More importantly, he proved that he was more than just another teenage pretty boy and that his career has some staying power. But as triumphant as he might be feeling right now, there are some dark clouds looming in Bieber's immediate future.
In Bieber’s natal horoscope (click here to see the chart) we see the Sun and Venus close to what astrologers call the I.C., at the lower end of the axis that divides the horoscope in half. This is a powerful placement and is a clear indication of the fame and popularity that this young performer has achieved. Bieber also has Pluto on his Scorpio Ascendant, however, which shows us that he is a more serious and determined person than we might otherwise assume.
As more information comes forth about the Petraeus scandal attention is beginning to focus on the “other, other” woman involved in the affair: Jill Kelley. I thought it might be time to look at her chart.
Since I don’t have a time of birth, I’m using a horoscope charted for noon on her birth date. Wikipedia gives Beirut, Lebannon as her place of birth. Another source has New Jersey. I’m using Beirut but, for this cursory examination the place of birth is not crucial. (Click here to see this chart.)
Kelley is a Capricorn by Sun sign and she also has Mercury and Venus in that sign. From this we can see that she is a practical, goal-oriented person who rarely lets her emotions get the best of her. Her Sun forms a nice sextile with Jupiter which indicates that she is more outgoing than the typical Capricorn and has a grander self-image.
It is next to impossible to find a horoscope in which the Sun, Moon and all of the planets are in agreement. More often than not the horoscope is a circle full of discord with different planets, aspects and house placements arguing ceaselessly with each other. The best we can hope for is to arrive at a compromise on the big issues like work, relationships and family, but this often takes time.
In the horoscope of Taylor Swift the argument seems to begin with the Sun. Swift’s Sagittarian Sun is in direct disagreement with both her Venus in Aquarius and her Mars in Scorpio. This disagreement especially impacts her ability to sustain relationships.
