Australia’s Crocodile Dundee – Paul Hogan – may be charged in Australia with tax evasion on payments from his movies which he channelled into off-shore tax havens. He and his accountants insist he’s done nothing wrong.
Born on 8 October 1939 9.30 am Lightning Ridge, Australia, he’s a friendly 11th house Libra Sun with Venus Mercury also in Libra opposition a self reliant Saturn in Aries. He has filmic Neptune in his 10th.
But what really defines his chart and personality is a ferociously determined 2nd house Mars in no-compromise Aquarius opposition an 8th house Pluto Moon in Leo square Saturn. Especially falling in his two finance house it would focus all of that powerhouse energy towards handling his money. Pluto in the 8th can feel out of control but it also can have a tendency to take control in secret ways. His Pluto also trines a pushily confident Jupiter in Aries.
This year his Solar Arc Uranus is conjunct his 8th house Pluto which is always accompanied by an almighty jolt – and in his 8th house of joint finances which does rule tax and business money. And it affects that central T square with transiting Neptune sextile Saturn on the focal point also giving cause for concern thro’ 10/11. He also has some downers from tr Saturn opposition his Jupiter at the moment and some really wobbly Uranus transits to midpoints which will shake his security till early 2011. Plus his Libra planets catch the tr Saturn conjunction from later this year into 2011/12.
But he’s also got several upbeat transits – tr Pluto sextile his Mars/Jupiter midpoint and square his Jupiter. So he’ll remain positive no matter what. His Solar Arc Jupiter is also trine his Sun which is usually good news.
His chart continues to have highs and lows ahead with really upbeat, successful tr Pluto conjunct Sun/Jupiter in 2012/13 at the same time as his Solar Arc Uranus is conjunct his 8th house Moon which is emotionally (and physically) upsetting with money being probably involved. And tr Uranus is conjunct his 4th house Jupiter and trine Pluto come 11/12 – which could go either way – lucky breaks, delight at home and some real shake ups over joint finances. He may be bruised and battered over the experience but he won’t be down and out that’s for sure.
American Apparel the controversial clothing firm is now in major liquidity problems, possibly about to default on loans and minus its accountants Deloitte who have resigned.
It was started by Canadian Dov Charney (13 Jan 1969) who has hit the headlines for his management style, walking around the office in his underpants, fending off sexual harassments suits and being sued by Woody Allen for using his image in an advert without permission.
He’s an ambitious controlling Sun Capricorn trine Pluto with his Sun also square Saturn in Aries. So he’s ambitious, a go-getter but not exactly dripping with sensitivity. His Mars in determined Scorpio (and Moon) are square Mercury and trine Venus – so he’s argumentative, not above getting his own back. At the moment he has tr Pluto square his Uranus turning his life upside down; a financially downbeat tr Saturn conjunct Jupiter in early this September. And much worse his Solar Arc Pluto is approaching a conjunction to his Mars late 2010/11 which will be meet-brick-wall-time and hugely frustrating for him.
The incorporation date for American Apparel is 22 July 2005 which intriguingly follows the theme of his own chart with a Sun conjunct Saturn square Mars and Mars trine Pluto. That chart is also labouring mightily at the moment with tr Neptune opposition the financial Venus in 2011/12 and before then an insecure tr Uranus trine Sun, Saturn and square the Solar Arc Pluto – so all standing on its head.
