In this week's episode, we take a look at the birth charts of the five men and women nominated for Best Actor and Best Actress at this Sunday's Academy Awards. We wanted to see if Andrew Garfield, Will Smith, Denzel Washington, Benedict Cumberbatch, Javier Bardem, Jessica Chastain, Olivia Coleman, Kristen Stewart, Penelope Cruz, and Nicole Kidman all had something in common astrologically. No surprise, Neptune plays a heavy hand in making an actor Oscar worthy. We also found some interesting trends involving Venus and Pluto.
We also did comparison charts between Andrew Garfield/Jonathan Larson, Will Smith/Richard Williams, Javier Bardem/Desi Arnaz, Jessica Chastain/Tammy Faye Bakker, Kristen Stewart/Princess Diana and, Nicole Kidman/Lucille Ball to see what they have in common. We wanted to know if they were possibly drawn to the roles they are nominated for because the share placements or aspects.
Finally, we looked back at the past 20 years of winners for Best Actor and Best Actress to see if there were any trends astrologically between the winners. We found out the actors were all very Mercurial and the actresses were very Venusian. Plus, the women who won Oscars for Best Actress tend to has hard aspects to the Moon or their Moon aspects a malefic. Using that knowledge, we make predictions as to who we think will win at this Sunday's Academy Awards.
