Chris Pratt, 38, the face of “Guardians of the Galaxy” and “Jurassic Park” has announced he is separating from his wife of 8 years Anna Faris, star of “Mom” for five seasons and the voice of the Jailbreak character in “The Emoji Movie.” And this after years of trilling and coo-ing in interviews about how their destinies intertwined and how deliriously happy they were. Now it transpires they have had problems long time since.
The media blurb was how similar their lives were, growing up in the same location, both getting starts in horror spoofs, working with the same people, both with mothers who have MS, both with dead bug collections. So when they met it was soul-mate time.
Chris, 21 June 1979 4.31pm Virginian, Minnesota, is a Sun Gemini; with a formidable Moon Mars in Taurus in his 7th, so emotionally volatile. With a hidden Venus in Gemini in the 8th opposition Neptune square North Node (Saturn) in Virgo – intense, restless, a romantic idealist though subject to illusions. His Venus is also trine a 12th house Pluto, so controlling in a subtle way; and he has a maverick, freedom-loving Uranus in the 1st.
Anna Faris, 29 November 1976, Baltimore, MD, is a Sun Mars Neptune Mercury in Sagittarius with a Pisces Moon. He’s an Air Sun with Earth Moon; while she’s a Fire Sun, Water Moon – so very different types. Her Jupiter is conjunct his Moon Mars which would give them a boost when together; her Saturn is on his midheaven and square his Uranus, so she’d try to instill discipline into his life but clash over differing aims and his dislike of having his independence restricted.
Their relationship chart is a bit of a mystery with the Sun square Neptune, which fits the movie business, but tends to bring an illusory relationship where disappointment sets in as reality bites. The composite Venus has a superficially sociable square to Jupiter and opposition Mercury but not much else. And there’s a composite Mars opposition Saturn, which suggests a one-sided relationship where the needs of one partner were subsumed, and not always kindly, by the other.
The wedding chart, 9 July 2009, is also not inspiring. Certainly there was a passionately enthusiastic Mars Venus maybe trine Moon, but it was also in a strained inconjunct to Pluto; a high tension Saturn opposition Uranus, with Uranus in a changeable square to Pluto; and a head-in-the-clouds Jupiter Neptune square Mars Venus.
I never trust Mars Jupiter relationships when there aren’t any balancing and grounding factors. They fall into the category of – seemed like a good idea at the time and a great adventure – but when that wears off, the split.
One aspect not to underestimate here is Chris Pratt’s weightloss in 2015. He went from a funny, chubby guy to a funny hunk, and from a solid ensamble and supportive actor to someone who can carry a film by his name alone. I have now doubt people – and especially women – started seeing him differently there. We have a similar story in local news right now involving a politician who went through a weight loss and status update recently, although the emotional side so clearly seen with Pratt’s Taurus Moon/Mars isn’t as visible there.
Yessss!
Any relationship works as lovely no as their is utility and commitment
Thank you! I was curious as to the why of the split, and your article answered it.
