Beckhams From: Marjorie. (24 Oct 2008 17:05):
The usual handful of birth times for the Beckhams - 9.30 am looks better for David than the previous 6.17 am. That later birth time gives him a competitive Mars in Pisces on the midheaven with a lucky Jupiter in Aries in the 10th and an ambitious Taurus Sun also there. He has a Cardinal T square of Jupiter opp a 4th house Pluto (= forceful, though home overly intense) squaring onto Saturn conjunct Ascendant - which suggests he''ll move onto to more business executive role in later life. With Jupiter in 10th he''ll always have a good reputation.
There are certainly hints of another upheaval in his life this November with tr Pluto sextile his Uranus for the final time and if the 9.30 am birth time is accurate then it''s a 4th house Uranus so it would be a home relocation. The last couple of years haven''t been great fort him with his Solar Arc Sun opposing Neptune in 2006 over the LA move which isn''t morale boosting; and then Solar Arc Neptune opposing his focal point Saturn last year bringing confusion about direction and setbacks to his ambitions. Transitting Saturn has also been squaring his Mars (and possibly MC) late Sept/early Oct 08 which tend to bring arguments, accidents or setbacks. But he''ll bounce back over time though 2010 looks a touch stuck with his Solar Arc Pluto opposing his Taurus Sun. I would think given that both he and Victoria have Sun/Moon midpoints heavily aspected by transits this year that both have been questioning their direction and possibly finding strains on their marriage.
Victoria has certainly despite all appearances to the contrary had the most difficult two years of her life in 07/08 with tr Pluto opposing Mars and Saturn and that doesn''t clear till late November which is frustrating, impatient, fearful and a real slog. If her 2pm birth time is accurate then Pluto sextiles her Moon as it sextiles David''s Uranus in November which could also suggest a home move or at least major domestic changes.
They do have an affectionate though fiery relationship with a Venus, Mercury, Sun, Mars conjunction in the composite which sextiles Saturn giving longevity. Though there''s also a Saturn square Pluto which can indicate they feel chained together at some level which does give rise to resentment. Tr Pluto is trine the composite Venus in 08/09 and then moves on to trine Mercury, Sun and Mars in the next four years which will bring some tensions as the relationship is trying to change with some power struggling going on about who has the upper hand.
Present Influences: Never having lived up to his early promise on the football field, with Saturn heading downwards in his chart in recent years, and undermining Neptune going through his 10th, he’s on the move again. Saturn now moving through his 4th house suggests home moves, and tensions in his family. Uranus has also been moving through his 11th house in the past few years making him chop and change his plans for the future, and also altering his friendship circle constantly. Pluto for the past couple of years has been moving through his 8th where it will stay for another 5/6 years making him feel trapped by old obligations. However there’s no doubt that he’ll make money out of his multi million dollar three year contract, signified by his progressed Mars conjunct his natal Jupiter over this period. Jupiter is also now in his 7th house from late 2006 improving his closest partnership and giving him more social self confidence. Jupiter then moves into his 8th in late 2007 for a year bringing in even more profits from business ventures. There will be ups and downs along the way since Uranus is conjunct Mars, an edgy, volatile, insecure, slightly accident prone aspect in the second half of March 07, October 07, December into January 2008. It will make him prone to rash moves to prop up his morale and self esteem. Into 2008 his marriage looks slightly rocky again as Uranus is conjunct his Sun/Moon midpoint and square his Venus, so his feelings will be changeable. He will feel damped down from September 07 for a couple of years onwards, perhaps with heavier responsibilities around his children. His astrocartography suggests that the USA is good for settling down, perhaps good for his romantic life, but less successful career-wise. With his Uranus and Pluto midheaven lines through the USA his career will undergo a major roller-coaster ride. The UK and Asia will always be his most successful world areas.
David Beckham’s Chart
A hidden, steady Taurus Sun close to Mercury give him his earthy, physical qualities and the sense that he is slow to make up his mind, deliberate when he talks, rather shy. Though a confident, pushy Jupiter Pluto opposition make him tread on social niceties to get what he wants, helpful in a successful career. Pluto in the 5th makes him a commanding presence out on the social scene despite his need for privacy and personal quiet space. This opposition squares onto Saturn giving him grit and stamina. Though it also gives him a bleak view of life in which he always feels the outsider. He veers between highs and lows, optimism and pessimism very easily. With Saturn in the 3rd house he worries he is not as articulate or intelligent as he’d like to be. Another T square in his chart in mutable signs has social butterfly Venus in Gemini, in his extravagant second house of spending and personal finances opposing idealistic Neptune in Sagittarius squaring onto Mars in Pisces. Neptune and his Moon’s North Node in his 7th house of close relationships and marriage make him lacking in commitment to close partners, never quite knowing what he wants emotionally. Mars square Neptune attracts him to the showbiz life style with its glamour and pzazz. But this T square also makes him incredibly restless, highly strung, irritable, tending to scatter his nervous energy in too many directions at once. Boredom, distractions and a short attention span prevent him focussing his energy wholeheartedly on any one project. He will suffer more than is obvious from nervous exhaustion. But it does give him leadership abilities and that added onto Saturn in the point of the other T square suggest that later in life he will forge another executive career off the pitch.
David & Victoria Relationship Chart:
Affectionate Venus sits close on one side to the composite Sun so there will be affection aplenty, though with Mars close by on the other side, on top of passion, there will be fireworks and ego clashes. Uranus also sits opposite suggesting a relationship which only works well with a good deal of space and freedom, with both of them following an erratic schedule. Saturn square Pluto gives both an uncomfortable feeling at times of being chained to each other, which can give rise to resentment. The ups and downs, anxieties and separations of recent years now appear to be past. Though the position of the composite Moon is uncertain since Victoria’s birth time is unknown, so there could be some coolness around over home and family matters. 2007 always looked like being a year of upheaval for them jointly as Pluto sextiles the composite Uranus. 2008 will then have its gloomy moments with Saturn square Neptune and then opposing Jupiter.
