Victoria Wood, the hugely popular, respected and talented English comedian, actress, singer, songwriter, screenwriter and director, has died suddenly of cancer.
Born 19 May 1953, a week after David Gest and two weeks after Tony Blair (see Gest post below), she shared their Sun Taurus square Pluto; and Venus in Aries opposition Saturn Neptune square Uranus. Plus Mars Jupiter in Gemini. In her case she turned all that determination, maverick innovation and bubbly joie-de-vivre into a long and successful entertainment career. Her Moon was in Leo.
She had, as did David Gest, Solar Arc Pluto conjunct her Saturn Neptune which is devastating; and a very disruptive tr Pluto opposition her focal point Uranus and tr Uranus conjunct her Venus as she died.
Three headline-grabbing personalities with largely similar energies all put to different uses. House positions would have made a major difference, of course, to health issues as well as how the planets were lived out.
