Let us examine the horoscope of the very feminine, wonderful Monica Bellucci. Monica Bellucci was born on September 30, 1964, in Città di Castello, Italy. The girl was born contrary to the doctors, who had diagnosed her mother with infertility.
In Monica’s natal chart, all four elements are harmoniously represented. The Ascendant in Capricorn means that everything done has meaning and practical goals are pursued with determination. She is a vivid representative of the sign of Libra, one of the calmest signs of the Zodiac. In reality, Monica is not a typical Libra, as the Sun is the only planet in this sign. She is more inclined toward the influence of Leo and Capricorn.
She has a harmonious and integral character. At the same time, the star is a proud, self-loving, and radiant woman, as evidenced by the placement of three planets—Venus, Mars, and the Moon—in Leo. Impulsiveness and generosity are also inherent in her. Venus in Leo is square Jupiter and opposition Saturn. Venus is strong because it disposes of the Sun in Libra. This is a special trait, namely the ability to assert her rights in the world of fashion and art, as well as foretelling fame.
“Extravagant forms are not in fashion? Then I am against fashion! M. Bellucci
In Monica’s horoscope, Mercury, Uranus, and Pluto are in Virgo, which means that nature has endowed her with a lively mind and a good memory; she is erudite, pragmatic, and sometimes even calculating. In her youth, in addition to her native language, Monica mastered French and English fluently and also studied the basics of Spanish. Beauty did not prevent her from building a brilliant career and gaining fame in society as an intelligent woman.
In Monica’s natal chart, there is a large cluster of planets in Leo, as well as a harmonious aspect of the Sun in Libra. This interaction indicates that she is sociable, attractive, pleasant, knows how to present herself properly in society, and has creative abilities.
Even from school years, Monica was a noticeable, radiant, and beautiful girl. Her classmates did not like her, which, of course, is not surprising, since all the boys’ attention was focused on her. She studied well and dreamed of becoming a lawyer (Neptune in the 9th house), even enrolling in the University of Perugia in the desired faculty. And in order not to ask her parents for a living, she worked as a model.
Neptune in conjunction with the 10th house indicates an artistic person, acting talent. It also signifies fame and popularity. With such a placement of Neptune, there are good opportunities for successful creative work, and prospects open up for success in professional activities. Neptune gives great life wisdom and contributes to the accumulation of spiritual and material values. Neptune is the higher octave of Venus; in such a position, it makes Bellucci’s image of beauty perfect. In addition, she is one of the few models who successfully transitioned from a modeling career to a film career. Monica is talented and very capable. She grasps any innovation quickly, is not afraid to experiment.
“It is very important for me to seek and find unusual roles and test whether I can play them. Someone told me that inside all actors there are sleeping beauties, and every time we play a role, one of these beauties wakes up. Everything is inside us. We just need to see it.” M. Bellucci
The tense aspect from Saturn in Aquarius to Jupiter in Taurus indicates that Bellucci achieved her place in the sun entirely through her own efforts, without any connections or assistance. The actress was born into a not-wealthy family and understood from childhood that she would have to achieve everything in life herself, so she never sat idle, did not allow herself long career breaks, and was always in demand.
Jupiter is at 25 degrees Taurus (Jupiter’s degree) in the earth sign in reception by Venus; this is a striking position in the chart. It gives confidence on the one hand and the favor of the surrounding world on the other, contributing to the achievement of a high social level and material well-being. On the one hand, there is a calm nature, peacefulness, sociability, and on the other—firmness, determination, and steadfastness. Love for family and home comfort.
The North Node in the 5th house—the South Node in the 11th house. The task is to learn to live authentically and reach the world of creativity. The lunar nodal axis emphasizes the struggle between the personal (5th house) and public (11th house) life, forcing a choice between love and friendship. The Ascending Node indicates that creativity, love, and children should constitute the main content of life. Life circumstances will actively help in realizing these potentials. This position of the Nodes indicates that the greatest gift a person can receive is now given—the power to create their own destiny.
“Beauty inspires poets but offends ordinary people. Some perceive beauty as an insult. Beauty provokes curiosity and rage, makes people aggressive. When a beautiful woman enters a room, most men feel desire, and most women feel anger.” M. Bellucci
The very active 8th house in the chart—Monica Bellucci never feared taking risks and starring in provocative films (“Irreversible,” “Malèna”), did not hesitate to appear nude in erotic scenes. Pluto in the 8th house gives a person a certain charisma, great sex appeal, and magical attractiveness.
“I do not understand women who say that male desire humiliates them. In my opinion, they simply do not get along with themselves.”
