Joey Fatone

Earth holds four of his ten planets, with two apiece in fire, air and water, and five of the ten sit in fixed signs. Earth builds and fixed holds. Fatone sings, and the record names NSYNC.

The Sun sits on the ninth degree of Aquarius, built on not being told and carrying an immovability the sign's airy reputation hides entirely. Mercury and Mars sit together in Capricorn, Venus near the end of Pisces. His Moon sits at twenty five degrees of Taurus at noon and may by then have moved on into Gemini, so the private half could be either needing the basics in place or talking the feeling out. For a singer whose record is a group and nothing beside it, a Sun that will not be instructed sitting in a chart this fixed is the structure to start from.

Mercury is in three of the four closest contacts here. It stands at an awkward angle to Saturn six hundredths of a degree from exact, thought meeting doubt, which reads as a mind that treats its own uncertainty as evidence of stupidity when it is usually evidence of care. It sits a fifth of the way round from Venus at fifteen hundredths, charm in the way things get said, and square Pluto at just over a third, thought turning compulsive. A T-square holds the Sun, Saturn and Uranus with no outlet. Saturn and Pluto were the two retrograde planets. For a singer the record leaves inside a group, a mind tied to doubt and to charm at once is the pairing worth keeping.

Jupiter came back round to its Taurus birth degree on 19 April 2024, at forty seven, and three laps precede it. Taurus asks what has actually been accumulated, which for a record naming one group and no work of his own is a plain question with a plain answer. Speech tied to doubt, to charm and to compulsion at once, in a singer who spent his working life in an ensemble, is the arrangement to keep from this chart.
