Actor & director

Kevin Costner

A single one of his ten planets sits in earth, and it is the Sun. Water takes four, fire three and air two, so the one placement that would make a plan and count its cost is also the one the whole chart is named after. The record says Costner is an American actor who won two Oscars for Dances with Wolves.

That Sun sits at twenty eight degrees of Capricorn, near the end of the sign built on competence and on having actually done the thing. Jupiter and Uranus sit conjunct at twenty five degrees of Cancer directly across from it, both retrograde, and Neptune sits at twenty eight degrees of Libra. His Moon sits half a degree from the end of Scorpio at noon and may have crossed into Sagittarius, so it is left out of what follows. For somebody the record credits with two awards for a single film, a Capricorn Sun is the placement to start from.

The Sun sits square Neptune at under a quarter of a degree, which is the self obscured: confusion about direction, and vitality that comes and goes for no clear reason. Two T-squares close on that same pairing, one adding Uranus and one adding Jupiter, and since those two are conjunct it is very nearly one figure pressing on the Sun from two sides at once. Venus sits in hard contact with Uranus at three quarters of a degree, closeness and freedom colliding. Jupiter, Uranus and Pluto were the three retrograde planets. In the record of an actor handed two Oscars for a single film, a Sun under pressure from both sides at once is the figure to carry forward.

Jupiter came back to its Cancer birth degree on 3 June 2026, at seventy one, and five laps precede it. Cancer counts what is still being held, which for a record naming one film twice is a question about everything around it. One planet in earth and that planet the Sun, with two T-squares resting on it, is what this chart is: the plan and the self are the same thing, and it is argued with from both sides at once.

Kevin Costner is alive, so there is one chart here rather than two. The death chart is cast for a documented moment of death and there is nothing to cast one for, which is the point: this site does not estimate either end.
