Celebrate this week's celebrity birthdays

Couldn't wait for Star Wars Episode I? Can you quote Austin Powers word for word? Ever dreamed of a diva or divine actor extraordinaire? It's time to determine if the stars of the stars play a role in the achievement of superstardom. Do the babes, bad boys and big shots of Hollywood have common threads through their birth charts? A snapshot of the sky on the day of our births reveals what makes every one of us unique -- whether we regularly have the red carpet rolled out for us or if we are merely stars in our own small circles. Our interest and intrigue in the lives of the celebrities in our world give us a fascinating place to further understand how planetary influences impact all of us. When it comes to sun signs, Ricky Martin can make the characteristics of a Capricorn apparent or Gwyneth Paltrow can exude how Libra's are in love with love. Using celebrities to make astrology more accessible was what inspired me to create Astrozine, a look at the charts of popular celebrities. It is also what launched me to author a book, Stars of the Stars Venturing into the offline world has been interesting indeed! Each week my weekly newsletter includes the celebrity birthdays for the week, so you can uncover what the stars have to say about these people on their most auspicious days. You can join the weekly newsletter through the link on our homepage. Since we are in the sign of lovely Leo, I call your attention to the Leos in Hollywood who were born under this sign. Ben Affleck, Tori Amos, Halle Berry, Woody Harrelson, Lisa Kudrow and Arnold Schwarzenegger make for quite a combination of characters. See the similarities that you have with the stars and how your own stars set you apart. Do you think someone's sign is related to their stardom? Share your thoughts in this week's message board.
