Stephen Fry has been letting loose on J.K.Rowling accusing her of ‘crowing’ over the Supreme Court Ruling that “sex”, “man” and “woman” in the Equality Act refer to biological sex (a person’s sex at birth); and being radicalised.
Quite why he has erupted now – well podcasts being one answer – is not clear since the gender argument has been running for years and part of it may be sour grapes since he disagreed with the ruling.
Fry, 24 August 1957 6am London, has a determined and controlling Pluto Sun in Virgo on his Ascendant with Mars in Virgo close by in a short-fused square to Saturn in can-be-self-righteous Sagittarius. Mercury in later Virgo makes up the stellium in communicative, can-be-critical Virgo. His 4th house Saturn is trine Moon Uranus in Leo in his 12th and sextile Jupiter Venus in Libra. A complicated personality, undoubtedly talented, but emotionally volatile.
Not that J.K.Rowling is exactly serene with a challenging stellium in Virgo ranging from Mercury, through Venus to Uranus Pluto and a Virgo Moon. Her Leo Sun in square a creative Neptune.
She and Fry are not a good mix since her Sun is conjunct his Uranus – differing agendas and need space; her Mercury conjunct his Pluto = no compromise, unwinnable arguments; and worse her Uranus Pluto conjunct his Mars and square his Saturn which is explosive and hostile in both directions.
Their relationship chart echoes the synastry with a composite Sun conjunct Uranus; composite Mercury conjunct Pluto; and composite Saturn trine Mars Venus.
He’s very condescending about astrology so I not that interested in him!
Yes! I watched him in a televised astro debate or similar, many many years ago . Hugh Laurie there too. I recall Fry being critical of astrology and well – just about everything.
Something of the contrarian about him.
I think competitive, too.
Separately but connected. Three cheers this week for BBC News presenter Martine Croxall who – during a live broadcast, corrected the autocues ‘pregnant people’ to ‘pregnant women’ .
I imagine he made a nice slice cash from Rowling’s empire considering he narrated the Harry Potter series.
Click bait pure and simple. The thousands of views to his channel will be a YouTube payday for him.
