Singer

Bobby Darin

Earth holds four of his ten planets, air three, water two and a single one fire, and five of the ten are mutable with only one cardinal. The element that would charge at a thing is down to one planet. The record says Darin was an American singer of Mack the Knife who died at thirty seven.

The Sun sits at twenty four degrees of Taurus with Venus at eleven and Uranus at seven, three planets in the sign built on steadiness and on what has been accumulated rather than announced. Mercury and Mars sit together in early Gemini. His Moon sits on the twenty ninth degree of Aquarius at noon, close enough to the next sign that it may have reached Pisces, so the private half could be either examining the feeling from a distance or dissolving into it. For a singer who died at thirty seven with one song named in the record, a Taurus group under a boundary Moon is the structure to keep.

The Sun lies at an awkward angle to Jupiter at just under a degree, belief in its own scale meeting a limit, and the two of them close a yod with Pluto that never resolves. Mercury sits square Neptune at just over a degree, thinking getting misty, and Saturn sits in mild friction with Uranus at the same distance, order against revolt. Mars sits a fifth of a turn from Saturn at just over a degree and a half, the angle of sustained effort. Jupiter and Neptune were the two retrograde planets. In a singer, speech gone misty and scale meeting a limit is a fair account of a career made very fast.

He died at the Cedars-Sinai Medical Center on 20 December 1973, at thirty seven. Venus rules his Taurus Sun, and that day Jupiter stood square that Venus at three quarters of a degree and in easy contact with his natal Mercury at just under one. Venus itself stood square his natal Uranus at just under a degree and a half, and Uranus square his natal Pluto at just over one and a half. The Moon was balsamic and thirteen per cent lit. That is the phase that finishes a thing, lets it go and is already looking past it. A yod on identity and scale, in a record that stops at thirty seven, is the structure to take from this chart.
