Our
Scorpio celebrity is the infamous Whoopi Goldberg.
Whoopi’s Sun is at 20 degrees of Scorpio conjunct
the heavy duty planet Saturn. Now you may think that
this is not possible for such a great talent to have
this aspect, but with Saturn there, it just gives
her the sideways natural ability to be sarcastic without
being nasty. These planets live in her eighth house
which is the natural house of Scorpio. The Sun along
with Saturn gives her the ability to really hang in
there when the going gets rough. Scorpio is a very
deep and very feeling sign so she is no light weight
as far as her ability to tune into the nature of things.
Her Moon and Mercury are conjunct in Scorpio also,
however, they live in her seventh house of partnership
relationships.

She
has had many of these and knows her way around them. The Sun
and Moon in the same sign signify a great natural ability
to see what she feels. Strong Mercury aspects give rise to
a successful personality. Residing in her seventh house also
are her Mars/Neptune conjunction, both of which are in Libra.
She could easily idealize relationships for a while, then
reality takes over. These two planets give her a good psychic
side. Mercury in Scorpio has the talent to be very quick witted
and funny. No kidding.
Whoopi
has a conjunction of Jupiter and Pluto. This is a very powerful
aspect that allows her to be able to see how she affects others
as well as giving her the strength to carry through what ever
she desires. This is also an aspect for a powerful transformative
life. The many life experiences that she has had has really
transformed her in a multitude of ways. These planets have
a hard aspect to Uranus. This could mean that upsetting events
have occurred during her life, when she has tried to feel
too much emotion. Just her job history is amazing, as these
two planets are in her sixth house of jobs. She has run the
gamut of jobs and experiences. As we mature we can often see
the errors of our ways, and make the necessary adjustments.
In other words we can overcome ourselves and get along better
in our world.
Whoopi has the indomitable sign of Aries on her ascendant
with the ruler Mars, and Neptune in her seventh house of partnership
relationships. This could have a meaning of a bit of impulsivity
regarding her inter personal relationships. She has a very
strong desire nature with Aries on the ascendant.
Whoopi
has been married 3 times ... Has a daughter Alexandrea and
2 granddaughters. She only travels by bus on long trips. She
was nicknamed Whoop because of being overly flatulent. She
added the name Goldberg, taken from the Jewish side of her
family. She’s dyslexic ... Dropped out of high school
and became addicted to heroin. Whoopi is one of ONLY 10 people
who have won an Emmy, a Grammy, an Oscar and a Tony. She has
been hosting “The View” since 2008.
“My
family is Jewish, Buddhist, Baptist and Catholic ... I don’t
believe in man-made religions.”
