Go see the movie Labor Day. She is definitely a weak character in that movie prone to Stockholm Syndrome, with her share of woes. She is a mental wreck in it. I thought she played the part well, just thought the plot was a bit whacked. As far as real life goes, I am sure she is steely and refined, like someone with so much going on in Libra and that no nonsense Virgo Venus. There are similarities between Rose and Adele, the character in Labor Day. In the latter film, the ending is much brighter but there are plenty of troubles getting to it and parts of it seem out of touch with reality. IP: Logged |

But what does a movie role have to do with her personality irl? That's acting, is it not? IP: Logged |

More so than I am lol, is that even possible What do you think? Is there a such thing as too much of something really? Her chart screams strong ego with all of those 1st house planets and not to mention that Pluto rocks her world or she rocks it's world? What do ya think?
Barbie, we all share charts here!!

My sentiment exactly. I was referring to interviews. When she is talking about her roles, she comes across quite assertive. IP: Logged |

It's interesting to see the characters she chooses to play. They have elements of Libra. It is like she can project her Libra/Virgo into her characters, with a hint of Aries now and then... IP: Logged |

But your statement contradicted that. I'm so confused Actors play the roles of their character not themselves, it's their job, the movie isn't about them at that moment unless it's a documentary of their life. IP: Logged |

In real life, I imagine her to be steely and composed. I know for a fact Libra stellium with Virgo Venus can be very composed and not care what anyone thinks of them. They are kinda iron willed. At the same time, I can see her exploring the world of Libra in her roles and she can look earthy and Virgo like when she wants to. IP: Logged |

You're welcome Looking at just my chart you'd think I'd be crazy and I'm the complete opposite lol. Yeah those aspects in the first would be tough but hey it makes you you. IP: Logged |

But it matters what planets are in that stellium, if they're all outer minus one then it's completely different than a stellium that consists of mostly personal planets. I get that she'll have a slight Virgo feel to her Venus but there's no denying that she is pure Libra, it'd be different if the Venus were in 1st but it's not so the Virgo doesn't apply to her self. Her Libra or 'Virgo' have nothing to do with how she portrays the character. it's her job to protray what the director wants, maybe those that direct her like that. I don't know. IP: Logged |

She chooses those roles and puts parts of herself into them. They are very Libran and quite complicated. They involve a partnership of some kind but are strained and extraordinary. I admire her for not seeking out cliche love roles but ones that are a bit off. These are more interesting. Libra sun and moon are more conventional but her Venus and Mars spice it up some so she seeks more challenges instead of going for boring roles that are one dimensional.
Venus in Virgo will go against the grain for the fun of it. Notice all the criticism aimed at Titanic just because her character lived and Jack didn't? That didn't deter her from seeking a complicated role. One of my close friends growing up with Libra sun/stellium involving Jupiter with Venus in Virgo was the same. She had a buzz cut and although it mortified me she didn't care who said what about it and actually wanted her hair to be that short over being a little longer. IP: Logged |

What Libra actor or actress, actor and actress in general goes for conventional or boring? I get what you're saying however one planet doesn't make you who you are. It's your whole chart. IP: Logged |

Libra is thought of as a conventional sign. Like love, marriage, peaceful, calm. Kinda like Disney. The sign of balance traditionally doesn't go for troubled waters. They mostly do not wish to hear negative things so they are hesitant to do whatever they think will illicit that. Venus in Virgo doesn't really care though. My mom has this too and she has always been outspoken and brash about stuff. She got a divorce back when southern women were heavily stigmatized for doing something like that. And then my friend with Venus in Virgo and mom are both pretty much independent feminist careerists even though one's a Leo sun, the other, Libra. Venus in Virgo might seem like it would be boring but it is often a sign of someone with a lot of backbone and courage. IP: Logged |

Chill. The Libra stellium is DISPOSITED by that Virgo Venus. That shizz matters. I understand that you want to stress KW's Libra-ty [and quite frankly indirectly talk about yourself *wink wink*] - but the point SSS is so elegantly making is purely astrological.

Venus is Virgo would seem like the opposite imo. Very sensitive to what others think, being incredibly critical of those you love or care about and not one for showing emotion outwardly but once they find the one they're different. Kate doesn't give a s hit which is so that 1st house stellium IP: Logged |

Who said it never mattered.... This is about Kate not me. SSS brought me into this. She's always trying to discredit those that are more Libra(even Libra suns) than she is, it's quite annoying actually, it's not a who's the most Libra game. She did it to me in another thread. All I was saying is that her Libra overpowers all else in her chart because it does and that she has an Aries feel. Her Venus is what she likes and how she loves and that has a Virgo feel. She may be more grounded than the normal Libra with the Virgo Venus but it doesn't mean she looks like a Virgo or is one. Don't stick your nose in a coversation without having the full facts. What she's saying doesn't make logical sense in what we're discussing when you look at the full facts, this is strictly astrological when it did it fade over to something else...?

No no no. I am not discrediting any Libra.In fact let's look at Bridget Bardot who I think is beautiful. She had a Sagittarius ascendant, Libra sun and Jupiter in Libra. Even though she has Venus in Virgo too, her beauty screams Libra to me. So I am not trying to take away anyone's Libra, just noticing the fine combination of astrological factors present  IP: Logged |

This is why I get irritated. One minute you dislike Virgo the next you're all about it. It really seems to me like you strongly dislike being a Virgo and I'm sorry but neither you or myself can ever change that. All in all your chart as a whole makes you simply you.  IP: Logged |

Well, Kate is the meta - Libra, don't you think? :P As opposed to illogical sense? Hush, child, nobody cares about your "Scorpio/Libra/whatevs post-edit". I shall repeat myself - the astro input that connected the Virgo/Libra dots was given not just by SSS but by other posters. For the posterity reading this hot mess of a thread, it is good to notice that at some instant, the astrological stance was made. (I would also add that there's a strong astro relation between actors and the type of roles they choose, especially if they play real life people. Casting directors may not use astrology but they have the same eye as the astrologers.) I am commenting, not sticking my nose into a conversation. And, if I do choose to stick my nose, child, then... Too bad for ya.

I'm entitled to my opinion just like those with theirs that are wrong. I'm not in the mood for smartassness today. Call the thread whatever you'd like it wasn't of your concern and now it is. Have all of the facts first little one before you start mouthing off and get confident on the internet. IP: Logged |

I don't really like or dislike being a Virgo. My personal experiences with Venus in Virgo has been they are difficult to get along with because they tend to be strong willed and my will clashes with theirs. I do admire what Venus in Virgo accomplishes which is usually considerable. I don't generally compare Virgo suns to Libra ones in order to say which one is better. The Virgo influence in the chart stands out to me. I can always spot it except in one case, Bridget Bardot's. I was shocked to see Venus in Virgo. I was thinking Libra or Sagittarius.
