In episode 117 astrologers Kristina Martin and Tara Redfield take on the relationship between Rom-Com Queen Cameron Diaz and Good Charlotte band founder, Benji Madden.
First, looking into Cameron’s chart we encounter a Venus/South Node/Ascendant conjunction in nurturing, but protective, Cancer. Although this zodiac sign is known for being a softie, we talk about Cancer’s need for maintaining a hard outer shell for safety. With Venus so prominently positioned on the Ascendant, Cameron’s beauty has always been on obvious display - she started modeling at 16! We also see an exalted Moon in Taurus along with an earthy Sun/Mars conjunction in Virgo. She's grounded, health conscious and extremely hard working. However, with those Virgo planets getting a square from Neptune, her identity can get lost easily.
As we look at Benji’s chart we see an artistic and empathic stellium in Pisces including the Sun, Mars, and South Node. We notice that he also has Neptune squaring his Sun, adding even more Piscean energy to his chart. For him, the square could be about addiction issues, but very wise of him to use this energy to create music. We also see a grounded, yet labor intensive Saturn/Mars opposition and a friendly and unconventional approach to love thanks to Venus in Aquarius.
Together they have an extremely supportive and sensual Sun/Moon sextile, creating a strong sense of connection. They also share a Venus/Sun trine in water signs, so they do have a strong intuitive and emotional connection. But we also see a heavy and even patronizing Saturn/Sun conjunction along with a sharp, instigating exact Mars opposition. Adding their square fixed sign Moons, it looks like it's hard for them to find harmony on the domestic front. Listen now and hear what unique score we give this 10+year marriage!
