Tales of Betrayal, Martha Stewart and Sandra Bullock

I have been trying to write about Martha Stewart and Sandra Bullock but between the flood, the flu and the income tax I am flummoxed. It seem like betrayal is all around us and a curve ball from Mother Nature adds to the mix. Both Martha Stewart and Sandra Bullock are Leo’s with planets located in the late degrees of the mutable signs. Both are facing betrayals by people close to them. These planets have been taking hits from the 5 Saturn/Uranus oppositions beginning in November 2008 and continuing until July 26, 2010. The upcoming opposition between these two occurs on April 26, 2010 along the Virgo/Pisces axis at 28 Degrees. For Martha Stewart these oppositions involve her Neptune at 25 Virgo in her 11th house of friends. Her “friend” Marianna Pasternak has written a book about her which contains some nasty revelations. Neptune in our horoscope can be our blind side. Where we see things through rose colored glasses or where we hold the highest of ideals. When Saturn comes along and hit this planet in our chart the blinders are ripped off. Neptune can also be about deceit and betrayal. Can Martha Stewart be a “bitch”? With Sun in Leo and Scorpio on the Ascendant, I’d venture to say that she can be formidable and yes the B-word probably applies. But this same combination gives her executive and business ability. I don’t have birth data for Marianna Pasternak but when friends write about friends in an unfriendly manner it says more about the writer’s character than it does about the subject. Leo Sandra Bullock’s betrayal comes from the ubiquitous cliché of the cheating husband. In Sandra’s case the Saturn/Uranus opposition square (a 90 degree angle) her natal Mars/Venus conjunction in Gemini. Venus in a natal chart is all about money, love and relationships. Mars rules younger men, our drive and our passions (as co-ruler of Scorpio) Jesse James is 5 years her junior, a late Aries with Jupiter and Pluto conjunct in late Virgo also getting whacked by Saturn/Uranus. The final opposition between Saturn and Uranus occurs along the Aries/Libra axis and will bull’s eye his natal Uranus at 0 Libra. He won’t know what hit him but with Saturn involved, he will get what he has earned. Yes Virginia, there is justice in this world. All of this betrayal is entering the public domain as transiting Mars in Leo moves to conjunct Sandra Bullock’s natal Sun at 3 Leo and Martha Stewart’s natal Sun at 10 Leo. Mars reaches 3 Leo on April 4, 2010 and 10 Leo on April 26, 2010, the same day as the 4th Saturn/Uranus opposition. Mars in Leo energizes the Leo’s of this world and spurs them to action. What action these two dynamic Leo Ladies will take remains to be seen but with Leo you can be sure it will be dramatic, public and scene stealing.
