Cher
Born on May 20, 1946 at 7:25 a.m. in El Centro, California
Nothing screams Taurus like Cher’s sultry, luscious voice.
Taurus Sun, Capricorn Moon: Taurus’ are indulgent, appreciate the finer things in life, and money and security are important to them. Capricorn moons have the drive & work ethic to achieve their goals.
Sun & Mercury in Taurus: The sun is your ego, vitality, and essence and Mercury rules your mind & communication. Taurus also rules the throat and you can see how this plays out with Cher who is known for her grounded, earthy, rich voice. She’s also very Venusian and luxurious as Taurus is ruled by Venus. They are also in the 11th house, so she has the ability to unite & bond people through the power of her voice.
Cancer Rising: Cancer is the sign of the Crab and is the Mother archetype. Much like the crab, Cancer risings can either be sweet and sensitive on the exterior, or they can retreat into their shells. Cancer energy gets a bad rap for being soft & sensitive, which they are, but they are also the mother archetype, so fuck with someone they love and see their wrath. With her moon opposing her ascendant (the ruler of her chart), this gives her a nurturing and protective personality.
Capricorn Moon in the 7th House: As a Cancer Rising, Cher is ruled by the Moon. Her Capricorn Moon in the 7th House of Partnership means she finds value in working & earning money, security, achieving her goals (Cap themes) through her one-on-one partnerships. As seen with her partnership with Sonny.
Mars in Leo (Conjunct Pluto) in the 2nd House: Leo is the performer, creative, and wants to be seen. Mars is our action, drive & physicality. Performing is how she expresses herself, finds value, and earns money as it’s in the 2nd House. Conjunct Pluto also gives her a great power for transformation which you can see in how she literally transforms herself onstage.
