There’s been a mystifying Instagram spat between two Sex and the City stars Kim Catrall and Sarah Jessica Parker. Kim’s brother died this week after she had reported him missing and when Sarah sent her condolences, presumably publicly, she received a blast back from Kim: “Your continuous reaching out is a painful reminder of how cruel you really were then and now. Let me make this VERY clear. (If I haven’t already) You are not my family. You are not my friend. So I’m writing to tell you one last time to stop exploiting our tragedy in order to restore your ‘nice girl’ persona.” Even given her upset over a family death, it does seem an over-reaction, no matter what how strained their working relationship had been.
Kim Catrall, 21 August 1956, Liverpool, England, is an intense Sun Pluto in Leo in a bleak square to an obsessive Saturn in Scorpio; with her Saturn in a gritty trine to Mars in Pisces; and her Mars in an argumentative opposition to Mercury.
Sarah Jessica Parker, 25 March 1965 9am Nelsonville, Ohio, will be tricky as well. She has a charming and upfront Sun Venus in Aries; but also a tumultuous Uranus Mars Pluto in Virgo in her 4th opposition Saturn and trine her 8th house Capricorn Moon, so will bubble like a volcano with emotional undercurrents.
Their charts are not too badly aligned, though Kim’s Sun Pluto falls in Sarah’s 4th which will put her on edge and squares Sarah’s confident Jupiter which may lead to one-upmanship games; and Kim’s Saturn is conjunct Sarah’s Descendant and opposition her Jupiter, so she will make Sarah feel put down.
Their relationship chart has a competitive composite Sun Mars inconjunct Saturn and widely square Pluto – all of which is very ratchety. And the composite Saturn opposes Jupiter for difficulties maintaining balance in their relationship. It’ll worsen from now onwards with tr Neptune squaring the composite Sun Mars in 2018/19.
I imagine Cattrall’s comment about “not being family” hit SJP’s 4th house Uranus/Mars/Pluto like a Molotov cocktail. Having a difficult 4th house myself with Pluto tight to the IC, I’m inclined to be sympathetic to SJP—the “family” she does have, she’s likely worked hard and painfully to cultivate—and comments like that really feel to a 4th house-challenged person like hitting below the belt.
They may need to put their big girl drawers on, no one likes cat fights.
Without taking sides, just look all that hidden 4th house action with SJP. She is waaay more than sweetness and light with a conjunction like that. Kim may have overeacted, but she’s probably tired of being seen as the villain / diva, while SJP’s Sun Venus in Aries take centre stage.
I have the Sun/Pluto conjunction with the square to Saturn in Scorpio, the orbs are fairly wide for both aspects (about 8 degrees) but they still pack a strong punch. Sun/Pluto wants to control outcomes, yet they tend to resist any controls put on them. But it’s also true with that aspect that betrayals are common and they are felt deeply, esp by the childlike Leo, whose pride and ego is easily injured by what they perceive as disloyalty from those they might have trusted. Yet they are capable of subtle betrayals themselves, esp when holding a grudge, so it can all get a bit convoluted. The square to Saturn adds defensiveness and power struggles into the mix. And her Mars/Mercury is easily drawn into a good fight and probably says things that tend to keep it going. Parker has a competitive, crafty sort of chart, and also holds on to emotional upsets more than the average Aries would. Since birth times are in question, it’s hard to get a fully definitive picture, but that Sun/Venus (P) trine Uranus (C) gives them an appealing chemistry together as well.
Leo being the sign on Kim’s MC, her Uranus in Leo fairly close to the MC, and Sun/Pluto exactly conjunct in the MC sign, does paint a reasonable picture of a villain/diva, though.
Well, look-at-me Leo as the sign on Cattrall’s MC with sun/Pluto exact in Leo + her medium-strength Uranus/MC conjunction in Leo does kinda say villain/diva. (*shrug*)
God, Kim Cattrall looks amazing for someone born in 1856! 😀
