Beckhams – money won’t buy family bliss

The glitz, glamour and conspicuous wealth of David and Victoria Beckham, worth a reputed half billion pounds, goes hand in hand with a loss-making fashion business, a splashy Netflix doc, a less than complimentary Tom Bower biography “Thin and Thick” and a running family fall-out.

  Son Brooklyn and wife actress Nicola Peltz, daughter of a New York financier/billionaire,  ducked out of David Beckham’s 50 birthday celebrations to hand the tabloid gossip columns yards of excited speculation.

 The ill feeling apparently extended back to the over-the-top wedding on 9 April 2022 when there was fittingly enough a high-finance and overly hopeful Jupiter Neptune conjunction in Pisces; plus a bad-tempered Mars Saturn conjunction; plus an intense and fraught Moon opposition Pluto square Mercury. No surprises the mood on the day saw the emotional temperature gauge move into the red where it has seemingly stayed ever since.

 Nicola, 9 January  1995 New York, has a highly-strung and independent-minded as well as chaotic Capricorn Sun conjunct Neptune Uranus. Her Saturn in Pisces opposition Mars in Virgo square Pluto, Venus and Jupiter hints at a hard-edged, uber-determined temperament covered over by a veneer of charm.

 Victoria, 17 April 1974, maybe 2pm, is not that dissimilar with a Mars Saturn conjunction in Gemini and a keeping-up-appearances Venus Jupiter. But Nicola’s Saturn squelches Victoria’s confident Jupiter Venus and Nicola’s controlling Pluto falls in Victoria’s family 4th and is inconjunct V’s Mars Saturn.

 Their relationship chart understandably is impossibly bad with a composite Saturn opposition Pluto square Mars pointing to serious dislike; and a needs-space composite Sun Mercury square Uranus.

 Nicola’s relationship with father-in-law David is not as bad though not great with an explosive composite Mars opposition Uranus square Venus – neither will compromise.

  Mind you Nicola’s relationship with husband Brooklyn is not much better with a composite Saturn opposition Mars linked into Uranus Jupiter; and Mercury square Pluto – all of which adds up to a one-sided relationship with unfairness looming large, some adventure running alongside bitter arguments. Which mirrors the wedding chart.  It won’t last. Indeed the cracks are probably deepening at the moment.

  1. Whatever you think about Victoria Beckham, she is a talented designer. And she and Baby Spice were the two that did all the tedious work that went into promoting the group, that the other two for the most part couldn’t be bothered with. She may not like her daughter-in-law, but it takes two to make a relationship. And given that Victiria is family based and has worked at her marriage to a man who hasn’t always been faithful, I think we can all cut her some slack. And for the new Mrs Beckham, making a friend of your mother-in-law is better than making her the enemy.

  2. Peltz, at least astrologically, is a super formidable personality it seems. Still, I read that her latest self-directed film was a flop. Sounds like she’s now causing a lot of problems lol. The boy apparently married a version of his mother.

    The spice girl was seen online recently wearing one of Peltz’s most famous red carpet looks. Almost with a, “this looks better on me” attitude. We thought it seemed quite sinister – after reading this, it’s even more likely it probably was!

    I know outright enemies who have the same kind synestry with each other that’s mentioned here.

  3. Since Saturn remains in a sign for about 2.5 to 3 years, I wouldn’t attribute her supposed lack of humour to her Saturn sign alone. If that were the case, it would apply to everyone born in the early 1940s, 1970s, or 2000s. Her seriousness seems more related to the Saturn-Mars conjunction in the 12th house, which forms a square with Pluto—a volatile combination. Meanwhile, the Venus-Jupiter conjunction harshly aspected on the Midheaven suggests someone highly concerned with appearances. In her case, that might mean choosing not to smile in public if she believes she looks better without it.

  4. Victoria has Saturn in Gemini? I’ve read, and I think it’s true, this placement gives no sense of humour. People just don’t get jokes and/or are always dead-serious and lead-faced.
