Can Whitney Houston Ever Make a Comeback?

Whitney Houston’s comeback tour has not been receiving rave reviews. Along with cancelled dates in Europe and disappointed fans walking out (in Australia), it’s clear this diva is off her game. With her long-suspected substance addictions a possible factor, some wonder whether the Grammy winner has ruined her voice for good and if her career is actually over.

Astrologically, Whitney -- a Leo Sun and Pisces Rising -- is having amazing aspects, with Mars in her solar identity house, boosting her confidence, and her natal first house in Pisces, backed by Jupiter (planet of luck). However, astrology is not about getting rewards without effort, and Whitney’s evident foibles reflect a superstar at a professional impasse. While success is within reach, her personal issues driving her to recapture her faded glory could be to blame; if anything is needed now, it’s not to jump back into the spotlight publicly, but rather, to return to the root of who she is in private.
