ASTROLOGICAL QUESTIONS: "My birthday is on Sept. 19, 1975, and my girlfriend’s is Oct. 21, 1978. She is the only girl for me. Will she always be true?"
Don’t we all wish we had a shortcut to "always"? Astrology can’t tell you whether these things will be absolute. Why not? Because they are not absolute at all. Although we may have certain propensities, we are all given free will, and we choose and decide your own fate, decision by decision, day by day, for the rest of our lives. Astrology can tell you, however, that it will be very unlikely that this girl will spend her whole life with June one man. She has a very curious stellium, with Mercury, Uranus, Mars, Venus and the moon all in Scorpio. As likely as it is that she will say "yes" more than once in her young life, it is also very likely that when she does finally settle down, she will absolutely be faithful from that day on. Mercury in Scorpio takes its vows very seriously. Although your Virgo sun and Pisces moon are very appealing to this girl, and although you have added strength to your personality with Pluto conjunct your sun, chances are she will not end her exploration of the mysterious of love with you. If you stick around until she is ready to be true, then she may commit her whole heart to you. But you will have to wait until she is ready.
CELEBRITY PROFILES: Charles Bronson is one of many enigmatic Scorpios. His action movies, especially those that portray him as a tough guy, are perfect vehicles for delivering his unpredictable Scorpio energy. Although Bronson can be silent in the most mysterious way, he also ahs Venus and the moon behind his sun in Libra. This guarantees a secret romantic side, and thwarts his "loner-who-needs-nobody" image.
