Mini Biography

Pop icon Belinda Carlisle experienced full blown American success twice in the 1980s, first with the all female rock band The Go-Go's and then on an international level (which she always wanted) as a solo artist. The Go-Go's first album, 1981's Beauty And The Beat, spent six weeks at number 1 and they are still the only all female band ever to have a number 1 album. (Band meaning where all the members play their own instruments). In 1982 the group released the album Vacation and set out on a major sell out tour of the states. The album debuted in the top 10 (one of the first albums to ever do so) peaking at number 8. It would eventually go on to sell over 1 million copies though their record company only had it certified as gold. Problems were rising in the band as tensions grew between member Jane Wiedlin and Belinda as Jane felt too much focus was placed on Belinda as the star. Members Gina Schock and Charlotte Caffey both experienced health problems and all of the members were experiencing drug addiction. The group also consistently had problems with their record label as they were not paid royalties when they should have been. 1984 saw the group releasing Talk Show and despite having one of the biggest tours of the summer of 1984, the album was considered a commercial disappointment. The band broke up in spring 1985. 1986 saw Belinda releasing her first solo album called, aptly, Belinda. Drug free, married, happy, and healthy she continued to experience major solo success through 1989 with the releases of her albums Heaven On Earth (1987) and Runaway Horses (1989). With the onslaught of grunge moving in during the early 1990s Belinda's 1991 effort Live Your Life Be Free barely made a dent on the charts and its first single peaked at #83 on the Billboard Hot 100. By 1993 her solo album Real also tanked and her American record company MCA Records dropped her a year later. MCA technically should be to blame as they hardly promoted her work and most of it sold on its own. They did the same to Olivia Newton-John some 10 years earlier. But just because a pop star isn't experiencing American success does not mean they are not experiencing it elsewhere. Belinda proves to be a huge commodity in Europe, almost as big as Madonna and sells out stadiums in the United kingdom where they truly seem to appreciate her. Today, Belinda only occasionally records both as a solo artist and as a member of The Go-Go's. She considers herself a part-timer in these fields as she prefers her home life as opposed to the nail biting entertainment industry. She appeared in the 1984 Goldie Hawn vehicle Swing Shift and in 2001 she showed that a 43 year old with no plastic surgery and who isn't a size 0 can still be sexually viable when she posed nude for Playboy.

She seems to have an otherworldly charm,beauty.

her biological father split. She was raised in a strict household by her mother
and stepfather.

She is into environmental and animal rights causes

according to Cosmobiologist Pamela Rowe:
"WORLD EVENTS AND FAMOUS PEOPLE
If the theory holds water we can expect, when glancing down the list of dates
when the Geocentric Sun is conjunct the individual Heliocentric Planetary Nodes,
that the dates are close to pivotal world events. Also the birthdays of famous
and infamous people, who made or continue to make, an impact on the group
consciousness of society. The type of impact made is described by the
interpretation of the particular Planetary Node. Some interesting world events
are ARMISTICE DAY November 11, 1918, the news that World War I had finished,
coincides with the Sun conjunct Mercury South Nodes. The D-DAY INVASION OF
EUROPE LANDINGS on June 6, 1944, coincides with the Sun conjunct Uranus North
Nodes.

Belinda Carlisle is definitely famous.

I'd think a person with a strong Sedna influence can be so sensitive that she
could have a hard time dealing with reality. with a conjunction to the Sun, it
might overwhelm the ego.
She was actually very insecure person despite her great accomplishments.

She is now into Buddhism and chants regularly.

I think that people with these strong nodal aspects will tend to have an
important life purpose, be in the limelight, be toughly scrutinized others like
being in fishbbowl, and be expected of high expectations. Of course, there is a
potential to strongly influence the masses that can last beyond the person's
lifetime.

She really transformed her appearance that people thought she had plastic
surgery, but it was her just losing 30 lbs. The New Look was also
stressful,terrifying for her in regards to her needing to stay thin and not gain
weight again.

Her not having a relationship with her father had a big impact on her in regards
to abandonment. She forgave her stepfather and named her son after him.

They way she felt about herself changed from having a son. Motherhood made her a
better person.

I love all her songs. hehehehehe

I have her greatest hits CD since 2002.

I've been a fan of hers and the Go Go's.
"Our Lips are Sealed" is my favorite song of the Go Go's. I really liked "We Got The Beat"

I love "Mad About You" and "Heaven Is A Place on Earth" the best. They are some of my favorite songs of all time.

The former song was a lyrical love letter to her husband for sticking with her through her drug addiction and loving her.

Watching documentary video of her talking about her life made her seem like a person who has flaws and insecurities like everybody else does. She comes off very human. Her story is quite remarkable. She went through a transformation that she went through.

Finding that soul partner and having a child really changed her life for the better.

BTW

She was married April 12, 1986

looking at her transits when she got married might be very interesting

Belinda Carlisle's Marriage transits,secondary progressions,solar arcs

Transiting Neptune in 5'48 Capricorn R in her 11th
trine her Mercury in 4'36 Virgo R in 7th
square her Moon in 4'52 Libra in 8th

inspirational thoughts in her relationship, feeling inspired in the areas of intimacy

transiting retrograde Ceres is 2'10 Virgo in her 7th
conjuncting her Juno in 1'26 Virgo in 7th
conjuncting her Pluto in 1'46 Virgo in 7th
sextile her Neptune in 2'19 Scorpio in 8th

I think this reflects that she felt very cared for by her husband who inspired her and helped transform her life.
Her husband gave her an ultimatum - to choose keep doing drugs or have a life with him. Of course, she chose the latter.

Ceres also relates to food,diet,and taking care of one's self.

Secondary Progressed Midheaven in 1'12 Capricorn
trine her Juno in 1'26 Virgo in 7th
trine her Pluto in 1'46 Virgo in 7th

and transiting retrograde Ceres triggered that configuration

the aim of life connecting with marriage and transformation as well as caring.

Secondary progressed Juno in 13'29 Virgo
conjunct her Geocentric North Juno Node in 13'43 Virgo

this looks good for marriage

Solar Arc Mars in 13'18 Gemini
square her Geocentric North Juno Node in 13'43

activity involving marriage

so she had both secondary progressed Juno and Solar Arc Mars aspecting her Geocentric North Juno Node

Secondary progressed Ascendant in 1'44 Aries
trine her Venus in 2'28 Leo in 6th

That definitely looks good for love,relationships, and beauty and having a new image of being that beautiful looking woman that she never felt before until that period.

Solar Arc Moon in 1'58 Scorpio
conjunct Neptune 2'19 Scorpio
square Venus in 2'28 Leo

emotion focus on inspiration and love as well as dealing with drug issues. It looks great for music and being alluring as well feeling beautiful.

I can't help include Chiron here

Solar Arc Chiron in 16'59 Pisces
sesquiqadrate Venus - '29 applying
sesquiquadrate Neptune - '20 applying

Healing involving inspirational love, and making music about it

Solar Arc Sedna in 24'14 Taurus
square her Sun in 24'38 Leo

(This is definitely significant with her Sun strongly aspecting heliocentric,geocentric Sedna Nodes and trining her Sedna)

I think that it's great giving her that otherworldly charming essence.....especially when she transformed herself

Solar Arc Neptune in 29'24 Scorpio
conjunct her Geocentric South Ceres Node in 29'39 Scorpio

Solar Arc Venus in 29'33 Leo
square her Geocentric South Ceres Node in 29'39 Scorpio

this looks like inspiration,love in connected to being cared for

Solar Arc Midheaven in 1'02 Capricorn
conjunct Geocentric South Jupiter Node in 1'02 Capricorn

aim of life involving expansion,optimism........probably felt like the most happiest point of her life.
an exact aspect like would seem very significant

Solar Arc Moon in 1'58 Scorpio
oppose Geocentric South Chiron Node in 1'48 Taurus

This looks like dealing with past emotional wounds and healing from them

Solar Arc Ascendant in 16'04 Pisces
square her Geocentric North Uranus Node in 16'34 Gemini

This looks like the changing of her appearance and her surprising masses of people with the change

Solar Arc Vertex in 8'29 Libra
oppose Geocentric South Juno Node in 8'46 Aries

looks like fated marriage connection ,and maybe she might even felt that maybe she was married to him before

Solar Arc Saturn in 16'12 Capricorn
sesquiquadrate Juno in 1'26 Virgo - '16 applying

This looks like making a committed relationship solid by marrying

Carlisle in 17'05 Aquarius
conjunct Ascendant in 18'59 Aquarius
conjunct Chiron in 19'54 Aquarius R

you wouldn't recognize her if you haven't seen her singing in the early 1980's Go Go's.

Go Go's We Got The Beat - 1981 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CR_2kKujDsc&feature=related

Go Go's Vacation 1982 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eo8S3iFdzUc

This was her last singing with the Go Go's in 1985 before the Band ended in Spring of that year. Jane Wiedlin had already left the band. Jane was the one that would always sing the "Hush, my darling" part in the song, "Our Lips Are Sealed"
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6yoZH2nK7M8&feature=related

This was when she sang with the Go Go's in 1990. They reunited for the first time since they split in 1985. She already gained great success as a solo artist. The songs,"Our Lips Are Sealed" and "Vacation" http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=etxgDAZCpxg

This was when she sang with the Go Go's in 2001. The song, "I Want To Be Sedated" by The Ramones. They really rocked this one. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CgjzKxIOyoo

Go Go's in 2001,"Vacation" http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QgEWEvJCsyY&feature=related

Not many female bands playing instruments like the Go Go's.

They are doing a farewell tour this year.

Yeah..I checked out her French CD on amazon.com. I am very impressed. She has great versatility in her styles of music.

She mainly started as the Go Go's leader singer. She and Jane Wiedlin were the founding members of the Go Go's. They actually started off as punk rockers. Then they they got less edgy and became New Wave. After the Go Go's ended and with a new image, Belinda became very successful as a contemporary pop artist.

The Go Go's were one of the most successful bands in the early 1980's.

Belinda might even be considered The New Wave Queen.

here are 2 more videos of her in the early 1980's Go Go's

Here is some stuff on Sedna by Roy MacKinnon:

Victim, sacrifice sometimes unavoidable: transformation of victimhood – losses, possibly emotional, in mundane house where Sedna is, particularly if afflicted: inevitable fate – destiny: not of this world – worlds in collision – not of this culture, not of this time: uncovering that which is hidden, remote, unseen: concealed and acting unseen in an inky blackness: search for new knowledge in an alien world: issues around preservation of that which is untouched, essential, numinous: purposeful activity fuelled by a burning inner spiritual drive not of the personality: superconscious perception which incorporates a multi-dimensional mystical universe: far-sighted intelligence: misperception of reality – delusional, self-deception: release of soul to the world of spirit in the process of dying: psychic/mediumistic – this world connected to the other: the suffering of the unloved, outcast, sick, homeless, limbless: Noah's ark – preservation of what would otherwise become extinct: buried alive – entombed: Thy Will, not my will: essence not personality: preservation of nature and ecosystems: receptive to a spiritual calling from afar: the power of water: in this world but not of it. http://www.zanestein.com/keywords.html#Sedna

here is astronomy info on Sedna: http://www.gps.caltech.edu/~mbrown/sedna/

Thank you for the detailed info on the Sedna interpretation! In some versions of the story, Sedna is extremely angry so I would have expected anger to play a thematic role astrologically. Also, transmutation is a big theme in Sedna and the rituals performed for her. I can see how that is reflected in the victimhood transformation and the superconscious/psychic qualities.

posted May 16, 2010 08:26 PM         

Yes..she lives in France since moving their from Los Angeles,California in 1992.

"Thank you for the detailed info on the Sedna interpretation! In some versions of the story, Sedna is extremely angry so I would have expected anger to play a thematic role astrologically.

Well..it fits with the astronomy with Sedna appearing to be almost as red as Mars and being the object with the greatest average distance in our solar system.

"And I was going to ask you quickly if you have ever done the chart of Daniel Radcliffe, the actor who plays Harry Potter. I just read yesterday where he gave an interview and said he has dyspraxia. I guess he had said so in 2008, but I just read about it now. Anyways, I thought you might be interested in that if you didn't already know. Apparently in the UK there were many articles about how his disclosure was good publicity for something many people misunderstand."

I have never done Daniel Radcliffe's chart. I already knew that he has mild Dyspraxia. He is mentioned on Dyspraxia USA site. The president,executive director of Dyspraxia USA, Warren Fried thinks it's a good thing for Dyspraxics. A lot of people called him about it. http://www.dyspraxiausa.org/

I have strong Sedna influence too

Sun oppose Sedna - '44 in Right Ascension (Ecliptic Longitude
Moon sextile Sedna - 1'05 ('39 in Right Ascension)
(I have Sun trine Moon with 2'10 orb (1'24 in Right Ascension), and Sedna forms a wedge configuration with it)

I can strongly relate to the Sedna themes. I never knew my biological father because he had a drug problem and left. I was raised by my mother and stepfather who were very strict with me. I haven't seen my stepfather since 1990. I never felt that I belonged any where, and that started from being in special education for my Dyslexia and Dyspraxia. I am definitely very nonconformist by nature, but my very strong Saturn influence factors in my wanting to fit in with the mainstream.

i think long before they split up the go-go's, including belinda, were sick of the bouncy act and perky image they allowed themselves to be sucked into for the sake of "hits".

posted May 19, 2010 04:54 PM         

the aspect that stands out the most

Morgan's Pluto in 24'53 Leo
Morgan's Haumea in 24'55 Leo
conjunct Belinda's Sun in 24'38 Leo

That's a 15 minute Sun-Pluto conjunction.
That's a 17 minute Sun-Haumea opposition.
Those are very powerful synastry aspect.
The theme of transformation.
Morgan help bring about Belinda's transformation. There is the fertility,motherhood theme of Haumea.
Both Pluto and Haumea are transneptunian dwarf planets, and so they involve evolutionary intensified lessons/experiences.

Morgan's Ixion in 18'47 Libra
trine Belinda's Ascendant in 18'59 Aquarius

Ixion has a theme of second changes,matters involving gratitude.

Belinda was a given second chance by Morgan, and she's been very grateful to him for it, especially sticking with her through her drug addiction.

Ixion is a transneptunian dwarf planet candidate,and so it involves evolutionary intensified lessons. As a plutino,it can be involved with transformation too.

Morgan's Jupiter conjuncts Belinda's Venus and trines her Midheaven
he helped bring optimism,expansion to Belinda's lovelife and career.
Morgan's Jupiter parallels Belinda's Venus, and so they have Venus-Jupiter occultation.

Morgan's Chiron trine Belinda's Moon. Looks like Morgan bring about some healing in Belinda's emotional world.

Morgan's Chiron opposes Belinda's Venus and square her Chiron for a t-square.

Magi Society says that hard Venus-Chiron aspect is the IMPOSSIBLE DREAM ,and that couples with this aspect don't get married.
That's obviously not true in Mason and Belinda's case. There is involved in a t-square.

Morgan's Saturn square Belinda's Uranus

Belinda's Saturn opposes Morgan's Mercury and Venus. Belinda's Saturn contraparallel Morgan's Venus

Morgan's Saturn contraparallel Belinda's Mars

according to Magi Society, they have 5 Saturn clashes, but are still married even with the IMPOSSIBLE DREAM aspect.

Morgan's Juno conjuncts Belinda's Neptune and squares her Venus.

Magi Society said that couples with strong Juno aspects don't get married and can indicate affairs.

Their Junos sextile each other. That seems good for commitment to each other.

Morgan's Neptune parallels Belinda's Chiron which Magi says is a Cinderella aspect.
Morgan's Neptune also contraparallel Belinda's Juno. so Morgan's Neptune links to Belinda's Juno contraparallel Chiron, and I think that's a Romantic Super Linkage.

Morgan's Sun squares Belinda's Moon, but doesn't seem like it's been challenging for them. Morgan's Sun sextile Belinda's Mercury for nice communications.

Can you do a similar reading for me as well? Only if it is not too difficult.

posted May 23, 2010 07:03 PM         

I think that it's more about wanting to be detailed,accurate,and show that I am competent.

That can easily be my Saturn stuff
Moon square Saturn
Mercury contraparallel Saturn
Saturn in the 9th conjunct Midheaven (in Gauquelin sector)which is common with scientists and doctors.

it would also be my wanting to dig deep and get some penetrating insight

That could be the very strong transneptunian stuff in my chart.
