Chart Analysis:

1. Arnold Schwarzenegger:

Moon in Mula – the root. The Moon is aspected by unconventional Rahu conjunct Mars, the karaka for muscles. Schwarzenegger began weight training at the age of 15. He won the Mr. Universe title at age 20 and went on to win the Mr. Olympia contest seven times. Schwarzenegger has remained a prominent presence in bodybuilding and has written many books and articles (went to study the root of muscle building) on the sport. He is widely considered to be among the greatest bodybuilders of all times as well as its biggest icon

Background:

Arnold Schwarzenegger has his Bhrigu Bindu in the 2H – Leo which is also the 5H of the natural zodiac. The lord Sun is posited in Lagna in Pushya Nakshatra (lord of the sacred speech spoilt by the 8L Saturn). Sun (government) is conjunct with Saturn the lord of the 7H and the 8H and Venus the lord of the 4H and the 11H. This life is about Venus(entertainment), Saturn (strange muscles) and the Sun (government and father). He had a difficult relationship with his father but went on to become the head of a government (California)

Interpretation:

• Tied down to roots (lineage): In later life, Schwarzenegger commissioned the Simon Wiesenthal Centre to research his father’s wartime record, which came up with no evidence of Gustav’s being involved in atrocities, despite Gustav’s membership in the Nazi Party.
• Gets exposed to risks:

• Schwarzenegger opted in 1997 for a replacement heart valve made of his own transplanted tissue; medical experts predicted he would require heart valve replacement surgery in the following two to eight years as his valve would progressively degrade. Schwarzenegger apparently opted against a mechanical valve, the only permanent solution available at the time of his surgery, because it would have sharply limited his physical activity and capacity to exercise.
• On December 9, 2001, he broke six ribs and was hospitalized for four days after a motorcycle crash in Los Angeles. 
• Schwarzenegger saved a drowning man’s life in 2004 while on vacation in Hawaii by swimming out and bringing him back to shore. 
• Schwarzenegger tripped over his ski pole and broke his right femur while skiing in Sun Valley, Idaho, with his family on December 23, 2006. 
• On December 26, 2006, he underwent a 90-minute operation in which cables and screws were used to wire a broken bone back together. 

• Breaks away from social norms: 

• On May 9, 2011, Maria Shriver and Schwarzenegger ended their relationship after 25 years of marriage, with Shriver. On May 16, 2011, the Los Angeles Times revealed that Schwarzenegger had fathered a son more than fourteen years earlier with an employee in their household, Mildred Patricia ‘Patty’ Baena.
• During his initial campaign for governor, allegations of sexual and personal misconduct were raised against Schwarzenegger, dubbed “Gropegate”.Within the last five days before the election, news reports appeared in the Los Angeles Times recounting allegations of sexual misconduct from several individual women, six of whom eventually came forward with their personal stories.
• Schwarzenegger admitted that he has “behaved badly sometimes” and apologized, but also stated that “a lot of [what] you see in the stories is not true”. This came after an interview in adult magazine Oui from 1977 surfaced, in which Schwarzenegger discussed attending sexual orgies and using substances such as marijuana.

• Desire to find the root of all progeny: Schwarzenegger and Maria Shriver have four children: Katherine, Christina, Patrick, and Christopher.  Schwarzenegger also acknowledged that he had fathered a baby with a member of the family’s household staff.
• Nirriti protects people who are disabled:  Schwarzenegger underwent a genioplasty, a procedure in which his jaw was moved back so that it no longer juts out. In April of 1997 Schwarzenegger underwent heart surgery to correct a congenital heart valve condition.

2. Sophia Loren:

New beginnings: Her father, Riccardo Scicolone, was married to another woman and refused to marry her mother, Romilda Villani, despite the fact that she was the mother of his two children (Sophia and her younger sister Maria Scicolone). Growing up in the slums of Pozzuoli during the Second World War without any support from her father, she experienced much sadness in her childhood. Her life took an unexpected turn for the best when, at age 14, she entered into a beauty contest where she placed as one of the finalists. It was there that Sophia caught the attention of film producer Carlo Ponti, some 22 years her senior, whom she eventually married in 1966 once he finally obtained a divorce from his first wife.

Background:

The 12L Mars (imprisonment) in Sophia Loren’s chart is in the 8H of distress and taxes. In the 8H (natural 4H) Mars is conjunct with Ketu (Ketu in the 8H is for unforeseen income). Further Ketu is in Pushya –the lord of sacred speech.

Italy’s iconic actress Sophia Loren is now 79. The tax evasion charges staining her name? Almost as old. Italian tax officials claimed she fudged her taxes—criminally—in 1974. Although Ms. Loren was a worldwide jet-setter in those years, she voluntarily surrendered in Italy and went to jail in 1982. She only served 17 days of a 30 day jail sentence. She claimed that her deceased tax preparer had erred, and she’s been fighting ever since. But not in vain. The Rome-based Court of Cassation has now ruled that Ms. Loren was right (spoke the truth) when she calculated tax on her 1974 income. Under Italian tax law in 1974, her advisers calculated that she owed tax on 60% of her income. Tax officials said it should have been 70%, but the court finally ruled otherwise

Interpretation:

• Nirriti stands for war or destruction: Do you still feel the effects of your childhood experiences during World War II? “During the bombing raids the whole population of our little town crowded into a railroad tunnel for safety. It was freezing, and everywhere there were crying babies, couples making love, people being bitten by huge rats, sickness, laughter, drunkenness, death. I used to have terrible nightmares, though no longer. But to this day I am afraid of the dark, and I always sleep with a little night-light on.”
• Revival: Sophia in 1950, worked her way up through supporting roles. In these early films, she was credited as “Sofia Lazzaro” because people joked her beauty could raise Lazzarus from the dead (like Jesus revived Lazzarus from the dead)
• Desire to find the root of all progeny: “By the time I reached the age of 29, my desire to have children had become an obsession. I simply loved children. On the sets of my movies, I’d befriend the child actors and then stay in touch with them long after shooting had finished. But in 1963 — when 29 was considered old to be a first-time mother — I was wondering if it would ever happen.”
• Scare away demons:  “When my pains suddenly stopped at 4am, I knew it was all over. The doctor was called but took two hours to get to the hospital. ‘Signora,’ he told me, ‘you no doubt have excellent hips, and you’re a beautiful woman, but you will never have a child.’ His scathing words dashed all my hopes, making me feel powerless, barren and deeply inadequate. Luckily, fate led us to an unexpected discovery. The wife of an Italian film director had gone through an odyssey similar to mine, but she’d chanced upon an internationally renowned expert who’d helped her carry to term. His name was Hubert de Watteville, and he was the director of the gynaecology clinic at Geneva Hospital in Switzerland. After studying my case, he told me: ‘There’s nothing wrong — you’re a very normal woman. The next time you get pregnant, we’ll monitor you closely.’

3. Jane Fonda:

Genetics: According to her father, their surname came from an Italian ancestor who immigrated to the Netherlands in the 1500s. There, they intermarried and began to use Dutch given names, with Jane’s first Fonda ancestor reaching New York in 1650. She also has English, Scottish, and French ancestry. She was named for the third wife of Henry VIII, Jane Seymour, to whom she is distantly related on her mother’s side.

Background:  

Sun in Mula: “Imagine a woman with a difficult relationship with her father finds a play in which the father and daughter so paralleled real life. And I was able to buy the rights (for On the Golden Pond)

Interpretation:

• Nirriti is war or destruction: In addition to her acting, Fonda became an outspoken critic of the Vietnam War. She travelled to North Vietnam in 1972—a visit that caused an uproar back at home. Many were particularly upset by Fonda’s decision to pose for photos while sitting on an antiaircraft gun, one used to shoot at American troops. She was given the nickname “Hanoi Jane” and seen as a traitor for her support of the North Vietnamese.
• Sun(government) in the 12H(hidden) in Mula (unlawful): In 2013, it was revealed that Fonda was one of approximately 1,600 Americans whose communications between 1967 and 1973 were monitored by the United States National Security Agency (NSA) as part of Project Minaret, a program that some NSA officials have described as “disreputable if not downright illegal”. Fonda’s communications, as well as those of her husband, Tom Hayden, were intercepted by Britain’s Government Communications Headquarters (GCHQ). Under the UKUSA Agreement, the GCHQ sent the intercepted data on Americans to the U.S. government.
• Gets exposed to risks:  So she (Jane Fonda) didn’t object when he brought home a beautiful redhead, a high-class call girl from Madame Claude’s, the most elegant brothel in Paris. Jane wrote, “I threw myself into the threesome with the skill and enthusiasm of the actress that I am.” The threesomes would continue throughout most of their marriage, even while they filmed La Curée, Vadim’s most imaginative, sardonic sexual fantasy. Occasionally Jane herself did the soliciting. But she maintained she never got much pleasure from the threesomes. What a tangled web their marriage was. Jane seemed to be devoting so much energy to maintaining a double standard for herself.
• Pain humiliation and loss of face: Vadim’s glamorous new girlfriend let her in, thrilled to meet the movie icon at last. But her excitement soon turned to disbelief. The star of Julia, Klute and The China Syndrome had come to do her laundry.

Why? Because her second husband, Tom Hayden, had forbidden her to have either a washing  machine or dishwasher. Far too bourgeois. Not only that, but he’d made her sell her comfortable house in Los Angeles and buy a shabby two-bedroom shack in Santa Monica that smelled of mildew, where the couple shared a mattress on the floor. She couldn’t even wear her Cartier wristwatch anymore, because Hayden disliked any show of possessions. So she’d replaced it with a cheaper Timex.

Many of Jane Fonda’s friends looked on in disbelief as she once again subjugated herself to a man. 

Once, when she did something that displeased him — she was receiving too much attention — he encouraged her to discuss her short-comings in front of him and other friends. And Jane meekly obliged. To the despair of her brother Peter and daughter Vanessa, who both loathed Hayden, she allowed herself to be belittled for years. ‘I simply didn’t think my ideas or feelings were as important or credible as his,’ she confessed later.
