Born: October 28, 1967, Smyrna, Georgia
The Pretty Woman of the 90s is far more than a pretty face and megawatt smile -- shes Hollywoods most famous actress (and the recipient of a Best Actress Oscar for Erin Brockovich). Its quite a coup for someone who wanted to be a veterinarian as a child and was once turned down for a role on All My Children. Julia Roberts counts screen credits with actings hottest hunks among her many accomplishments (how many of us get to call smooching with Richard Gere, Hugh Grant, Denzel Washington, Mel Gibson and Brad Pitt just another days work?). Her romantic track record is colorful at best, including a short, failed marriage to quirky country musician Lyle Lovett and engagements to former co-stars Kiefer Sutherland, Dylan McDermott and Jason Patric, to name a few. Will her second marriage, to cameraman Daniel Moder, last? And what do the stars have in store next in terms of her career?
Born under a Scorpio Sun, Roberts is determined, sexual and mysterious all at once. Its likely to be difficult to know her, since she guards her secrets carefully and always has an ulterior motive. Furthermore, a healthy dose of Virgo influence in her chart combines with her Scorpio Sun to make her even more secretive. But her Leo Moon softens things up for Roberts (and for those who love her); Leos influence on her emotions make her warm-hearted, generous and demonstrative with her affections. This placement also gives her her taste for being the center of attention!
Due to her Mercury in Scorpio, Roberts likes intensity and cant abide by small talk. She yearns to go deep, probing issues with fervor with someone who shares her passions. Roberts doesnt take anything at face value. Whether shes dealing with a contract or a costar, shes always suspicious enough to investigate further and shes far too smart to let anything slip by unnoticed.
With her Love Planet, Venus, in exacting Virgo, its no wonder Roberts has been so picky in love. She wants Mr. Right, not some close facsimile. Fickle? Definitely; thats just the way Virgo is, but it isnt all bad -- its this strong Virgo influence that also makes Roberts orderly, a good businessperson and extremely detail-oriented. Furthermore, her Venus in Virgo Conjunct Pluto and Uranus makes her even more intense than her Scorpio influence already allows. When this pretty lady is on, shes way on, and when shes off, watch out! This alignment also speaks to Robertss charismatic quality -- when you meet her, you quickly fall under her spell.
With Mars in Capricorn, Roberts is likely to be supremely ambitious -- she may appear casual about her career, but shes not. Her Mars in Capricorn makes a challenging aspect to Saturn in Aries, which could cause self-doubt to creep in. If she can master this demon, though, the world is hers to conquer!
