Celebrity Astrology Story of the Week (December 18 2012) Ice-T and Coco

Celebrity Astrology Story of the Week (December 18 2012)
Ice-T and Coco

This long time celebrity couple - they've been married since New Year's Eve 2001 when they tied the knot in Las Vegas - is in the news not only for their hit reality TV show Ice Loves Coco but also because of a recent spat that hit the social media fan just the other day.

Turns out Mrs. Marrow was partying it up in Las Vegas and posted pics of her 'canoodling' with rapper AP.9 on the internet. Ice-T felt disrespected and took to his Twitter account to say so, although the two have apparently made up and all pics and comments have been taken down.

Nicole Natalie Austin - aka Coco - was born on March 17, a Pisces and Tracy Marrow, also known as Ice-T, Ice, The Iceberg, Ice Ice Baby, Cold as Ice, Ice to See You, and Mr. AdvICE was born February 16 - an Aquarius. 

It's a popular combination of signs for good reason. These two signs respect each other and will find a lot of common ground for a solid friendship at the root of their romantic relationship. I'm not a fan of reality TV in general but I'm told that the show reveals that they seem to have a good and stable relationship overall, which would be entirely in keeping with that aspect.

Actress, dancer, glamour model and web personality, Coco has that typical Piscean lady's ultra-girly appeal down pat. The Water Bearer in the male version doesn't typically need to be ultra macho or come on strong to assert his masculinity, but they're not immune to that perennial male need either. A soft, sexy Pisces lady fits that bill to a T - she makes him feel like a man. In turn, he makes her laugh and supports anything she does without the kind of ego issues or power struggles you might find where there's higher octane testosterone, such as with a Leo or Taurus, let's say.

While it's generally a good match in most respects, the friction may come when super cool Aquarius doesn't give baby-girl Pisces the kind of emotional maintenance she needs. All Aquarians are independent and never have a problem with going it solo - they don't need anyone else's affirmations of who they are, so why do you? goes the logic. It has to be said that the male Water Bearer has a tendency to take his women for granted in that respect.

No matter what happened with them exactly, it is definitely nice to see a situation where I can use the phrases 'long term' and 'celebrity couple' in the same sentence.

Celebrity Astrology Story of the Week (December 11 2012) Taylor Swift and Harry Styles

Celebrity Astrology Story of the Week (December 11, 2012)
Taylor Swift and Harry Stylesfor now that is...

Miss Taylor Alison Swift is famous for her singing talent - and a song catalogue filled with odes to her exes. It's inevitable that I'd have to write about her sometime.

Taylor was born on December 13, a fiery Sagittarius. I've read that she says she doesn't know why her relationships haven't lasted... but it's very Archer of her to pick up right where she left off with the next cute guy who takes her fancy.

Harry Styles was born February 1, an Aquarius. The Water Bearer and the Archer are natural friends, both of them brainy and talented and always up for spontaneous fun. There is usually an immediate attraction, and a relationship will be an adventure for these two daredevil signs. They'll be friends as well as romantic partners and that can help to make things last maybe a little longer.

Despite the compatibility, there are potential trouble spots. Aquarius is cooler emotionally, especially the male variety. It's not uncommon for Aquarians to stay single - and wild - until they're in their 40's, which can make any long term relationships a long shot.

Still, it'll be fun while it lasts.

Celebrity Astrology Story of the Week (December 3 2012) Hugh Hefner and Crystal Harris

Celebrity Astrology Story of the Week (December 3, 2012)
Hugh Hefner and Crystal Harris

This age-diverse couple (and that's about as neutral a term as you can come up with, isn't it?) made headlines last year when Ms Harris cancelled the wedding a mere fives days before the date in June 2011. However, they are said to have reconciled earlier this year and are supposedly preparing for a New Year's Eve wedding.

Born in the United States on April 29 - a Taurus - Crystal Harris has made her career in the U.K. as glamour model, singer, and television personality. She was the Playboy Playmate of the Month in December 2009. Taurus is a very physical, earthy sign, a good match for Aries' youthful sexual energy. A Bull also respects elders and likes material comforts.

Hugh Marston Hefner was born April 9, an Aries. To be perfectly unironic, Aries is a youthful sign even without the Viagra. If there is a boy inside every man, in an Aries it's a wild boy, like one of the Lost Boys from Peter Pan. However they do slow down somewhat as they get older, putting that breakneck Aries pace more in tune with solid Taurus' more measured approach to life in general.

The tabloids say she wasn't crazy about all the other women hanging around all the time on a permanent basis; there will always be a straight-laced edge to Taurus no matter how hedonistic their lifestyle may appear. Conservativism can be relative. Aries isn't terribly emotional as a rule and that can be a downer for romantic to the bone Taurus.

She not only broke off their wedding on short notice but sold her $90K engagement ring at an auction at a big loss. But Hugh is apparently a forgiving man and is set to take the plunge again. Being quick to forgive is actually typical Aries behaviour. They blow hot and cold within seconds of each other; they fully understand that what is felt and said now doesn't necessarily apply in a second or two - at least, not where they are concerned. They're more than willing to extend that same consideration to others.

Best of luck to the said to be engaged couple!

Celebrity Astrology Story of the Week (November 27 2012) Barack and Michelle Obama

Celebrity Astrology Story of the Week (November 27, 2012)
Barack and Michelle Obama

Now that he's safely been re-elected as the 44th President of the United States, I thought it might be a good time to look at this power couple.

'Power couple' is just the right term for this pairing, almost a textbook example of the kind of union that should make it to the Oval Office or any other seat of political or corporate power.

Barack Hussein Obama II was born on August 4, a Leo - the Sun God, the classic charismatic leader. Michelle LaVaughn Robinson Obama celebrates her birthday on January 17 as a Capricorn, known for their sartorial elegance and as someone who knows how to play the long game when it comes to getting ahead.

Public persona is very important to both of these signs of the zodiac and public life is a no-brainer fit. If Leo is a natural leader and in general a spotlight magnet, Capricorn actually prefers to work behind the scenes, making them complementary rather than competitive.

Both signs are strong willed - it's the Lion vs the Ram after all - so the sparks may fly on occasion but it's also a pairing of people who respect each other. Both signs demand quality of their personal relationships and find it in each other.

Leo and Capricorn will be well matched in rooms other than the head office, too, including the bedroom where Leo really shines and Capricorn can finally let down their hair and become the passionate animal they are inside that conservative veneer.

Celebrity Astrology Story of the Week (November 19 2012) Britney Spears and Jason Trawick

Celebrity Astrology Story of the Week (November 19, 2012)
Britney Spears and Jason Trawick

If the rumours are to be believed, pop princess Britney and her beau Jason are said to have a rocky relationship with wedding dates supposedly set and then broken off a few times now.

They announced their engagement on Jason's birthday - December 15 - last year when he turned 40, a decade older than his bride to be. That makes him a Sagittarius and that's probably the crux of all those ups and downs because Ms Britney Jean Spears, who celebrates her birthday on December 2, is an Archer too.

Signs dating their own sign can be a hit or miss proposition. Some, like Cancer and Cancer or Taurus and Taurus for example, can generally work well (if a little on the dull side as a couple) but others, like the fire meets fire match of two Sagittarians, can simply exacerbate the downside of the sign.

Quite simply, two Sags can equal too much anarchy! Archers are fun, spontaneous people who don't do well with rules, deadlines, budgets and other tiresome limitations. Together, they'll be great friends who have fun and wild times together - they'll also be the couple who shows up perennially late for everything, arriving separately and at different times.

They have a mutual lack of concern about money - and hey, even the super rich have to worry about tomorrow. Their lives will  both be full of outside interests and the coupling may falter from lack of attention to the actual relationship on either side unless they have some deep, shared common ground that brings them back together on a regular basis.

Some signs bring out the best in each other - this is a pairing that tends to bring out the worst. An Archer generally needs a stabilizing influence, not someone who's egging them on. Jason's being older may be stabilizing to some degree - Sagittarians do tend to get more reasonable as they age - but will it be enough to keep this couple on the ground? I guess time (as always) will tell.

Celebrity Astrology Story of the Week (November 12 2012) Carmen Electra and Simon Cowell

Celebrity Astrology Story of the Week (November 12 2012)
Carmen Electra and Simon Cowell

This couple is still only a rumour but let's take a look at the romantic astrological aspects of Carmen Electra and Simon Cowell.

Stories have been flying about the two of them since Simon hired her to serve as a guest judge on Britain's Got Talent earlier this year and have been spotted on intimate dates even if there's no "official" confirmation of the relationship.

Carmen Electra was born Tara Leigh Patrick on April 20, which means that she was born on the cusp of Aries and Taurus. Depending on the exact time and location of her birth, she'll be one or the other but will still retain some characteristics of the other.

Playboy model and perhaps best knowns as the Baywatch beauty who replaced the iconic Pamela Anderson, Carmen has a history of self-confessed impulsive relationships, including her brief marriage to basketball player Dennis Rodman and another marriage to Dave Navarro (also her reality TV costar). That points to Aries - a force of nature, a hot, energetic wind - rather than slower moving, home loving Taurus (although ironically the marriage bug - as opposed to being entirely committment shy like a typical Aries - might be the Taurus showing through).

Simon Phillip Cowell celebrates his birthday October 7, 1959 as a Libra. Libra isn't always known for their love of hard work (to put it mildly) but this one worked his way up from the mailroom at EMI Music Publishing to his current status as music industry/reality TV impresario.

Libra loves the ladies, that's for sure, and often earns a bit (or more!) of a reputation as a skirt chaser. He loves her feminine appeal, especially once he understands the strength that lies beneath her girly facade.

Together they'll share a love of adventure and new experiences. They'll have fun together and that's the start of a great relationship - or a nice hot fling.

In the longer term, Libra may have a hard time keeping up with the Ram's relentless energy level, but Simon's resume already shows that he falls into the more energetic side of the sign often dubbed "lazy Libra". The Ram charges through life full on while Libra wants to stop and smell the roses, although a union of opposites often makes the most durable couples - two people who don't get bored of each other.

Celebrity Astrology Story of the Week (November 3 2012) Evan Rachel Wood & Jamie Bell

Celebrity Astrology Story of the Week (November 3 2012)
Evan Rachel Wood & Jamie Bell

This cute couple recently got hitched and thus landed in the celebrity story of the week.

Andrew James Matfin "Jamie" Bell was born on March 14 - a Pisces - while his wedded wife Evan Rachel Wood celebrates her birthday on September 7 as a Virgo. He's best known for his role in Billy Elliot and Tintin and Evan's had a varied career in both television and film and during the years apart, she was actually engaged to goth rocker Marilyn Manson (who I'm sure she loved for his fine mind - no irony intended.)

The two apparently met in 2005 while shooting a Green Day video and dated for a while before drifting apart. They got back together last year. That kind of romantic patience is actually characteristic of both signs. Pisces and Virgo are both usually low key in demeanour even if they're taking centre stage and they both recognize quality in a person when they see it. It's not that they don't have a fire, but it's a warm, slow burn rather than a dangerous blaze.

Pisces lives inside his elaborate and vivid imagination and the passage of several years would have done nothing to diminish his memories and impressions of her. Virgo is a hard headed, pragmatic sign with a good memory who is always prepared to play the long game and wait for quality over quantity.

They make an attractive couple, both signs blessed with natural good looks. Pisces and Virgo will share a gentler approach to life in this pushy, aggressive era - and that extends to the bedroom, where they'll be well matched. Not to say everything will necessarily be bland or vanilla - far from it. Pisces boy has a definitely kinky side but in a way that's likely to be pleasurable for all concerned.

Where they might have issues is in Virgo's very down to earth and practical orientation vs Pisces notoriously dreamy and fantasy-based existence, but in the absence of extreme behaviour (such as Pisces sometimes penchant for extreme neglect of money matters) they'll complement each other as many other opposites-attract couples do.

Best of luck to the newlyweds!
