Mädchen Amick

Her ten planets divide three in water, three in earth, two in fire and two in air, an even spread with nothing missing from it. Water registers and earth consolidates, and between them they hold six of the ten. Amick appears on the record as an American actress named for two series, which is a working life built out of long commitments to single characters rather than a run of films seen once and left behind.

The Sun sits at twenty degrees of Sagittarius and the Moon at twenty degrees of Gemini, directly opposite each other within half a degree, which means she was born at the full moon. The public and private halves of the chart face each other across the whole zodiac, and both occupy signs that dislike staying still. Holding one character for years at a time is work that opposition makes harder rather than easier.

Venus, Mars and Jupiter group in Scorpio across twenty degrees, so taste, drive and scale all sit in the sign that conceals what it is doing while it does it. That is a useful arrangement for television, where a character has to be withholding for a season at a time. The Moon sits hard against Mars at just under a degree, and Saturn, retrograde at birth, is the only planet running backwards.

Jupiter returned to the Scorpio degree it occupied at the beginning on 9 October 2018, at forty seven. Scorpio will not do a thing by halves, so the question the planet of reach is asked there is how deep a commitment went rather than how many of them there were. For an actress whose record is two series rather than twenty parts, the answer sits on the right side of that distinction, and the full moon she was born under is the reason it was never going to be a comfortable one.
