CELEBRITY EXAMPLES OF THE SENSUAL SAVAGE
Our examples for this group include three men who made hasty marriages that they latter regretted. The first is the composer Pyotr Tchaikovksy (born May 10, 1840 adb.) A homosexual, Tchaikovksy was lured into and impulsive marriage to an emotionally unstable woman. Naturally, the marriage proved to be a disaster for both parties .
The second is the abstract expressionist painter Willem De Kooning (born April 4, 1904 adb.) De Kooning married Elaine Fried, who was his student for a time. His young wife proved to be compulsively unfaithful and, even though her lovers included high-profile art critics who boosted the painter’s career, De Kooning was deeply chagrined and retreated into alcoholism. The loud, sometimes violent battles between De Kooning and Fried became a staple for parties and other gathering of the Greenwich Village set long after the couple divorced .
President Andrew Jackson (born March 15, 1767 adb) adored his wife but his impulsive Venus in Aries nature led him to marry her before she was properly divorced from her abusive and philandering first husband.
