Freddie Highmore – a super-charged career and education

Freddie Highmore, the lead in the new TV hospital series The Good Doctor, following on from his success in Bates Hotel, has packed a great deal into his 25 years. Born 14 February 1992 with a talent agent mother, who manages Daniel Radcliffe, and an actor father, he made his film debut at 7, appeared in Finding Neverland, Charlie and the Chocolate Factory amongst others, before moving into an award winning five seasons in Bates playing a mentally ill teenager. In The Good Doctor he plays a high functioning autistic savant surgeon to good viewing figures and reasonably good reviews. And he still looks about 16.

He has an Aquarius Sun Mercury in a determined square to Pluto; with a highly-strung Uranus Neptune conjunction and Venus and Mars all in Capricorn; his tinged-with-genius Uranus Neptune trines Jupiter in Virgo, bringing him confidence and luck. He has a singleton Moon in Gemini/Cancer, which would point to a public career. He’s got quite a chart and had quite a career – I’m not sure where he managed to find time for school, but he went on to Cambridge and got a double first in Spanish and Arabic (acc to wiki). So certainly high-functioning.

Tr Uranus has been bouncing across his Capricorn planets with more to come early in 2018; and tr Pluto is now conjunct his Uranus Neptune, moving on in 2020 and beyond to cross his Venus and Mars. Interesting that his Jupiter natally is retrograde which obviously hasn’t stopped him.
