Fire Signs in Love: Adam and Leighton

New couple alert!

Fans of Josh Schwartz television- namely his two iconic shows “The O.C.” and “Gossip Girl”- are rejoicing today with news that Sagittarius Adam Brody and Aries Leighton Meester are in love. This is a dreamy astrological match! Or a firey one, to be more accurate- Aries and Sagittarius being two of the three fire signs know for their drama and courage (Leo is the third). Aries women like Leighton are bold and go after what they want. No shrinking violets here! She has historically been attracted to other confident fire sign men, like her ex Leo Sebastian Stan.

Sagittarians like Adam are adventurous and optimistic. And they have a notoriously great sense of humor, like Adam’s character Seth. Adam dated his Virgo costar Rachel Bilson for several years. Virgos are much more meticulous and careful than daring Aries, so Leighton is a better match for him.

Now if only Josh Schwartz could write a screen-worthy ending for this duo…

Aries: Bronze Medal for Comedy

A while back I wrote one of my personal favorite posts, about how Sagittarius and Scorpio are (in my humble opinion) the most talented comedians. A list of talented comedians for these signs and my impressions of WHY they are so good at this can be found in the post here. It occurred to me recently that a bronze medal should be awarded in this category- to Aries.

The new wave of comedy of the past decade has been spearheaded by Aries comedians. Vince Vaughn, Reese Witherspoon, Paul Rudd, Leslie Mann and Seth Rogen are all Aries. Their frequent collaborators, Judd Apatow (also Mann’s husband) and Jonah Hill are both Sagittarius. Other Aries comedians include, Alec Baldwin, Rob McElhenney, Alyson Hannigan, Eddie Murphy, Kate Hudson, Jane Leeves, Tim Curry, Sarah Jessica Parker, Matthew Broderick, David Letterman, Martin Short, Amy Sedaris, Conan O’Brien, Jon Cryer, Catherine Keener, and Rosie O’Donnell.

The Aries form of comedy is refreshingly un-self-conscious. Aries are natural, direct and independent. Rather than intellectually high minded Sagittarians (hello Jon Stewart and Woody Allen), and personally revealing Scorpio (paging Kathy Griffin and Tracy Morgan), Aries are simply glad to make fun of themselves and ridiculous situations to get a laugh. They are also especially talented at gross-out humor, Aries ruling the most basic human needs and necessities. Their talent is in making ANY situation (aka, the everyday situation) extremely funny and for that we owe them a debt of gratitude- and a comedy bronze medal.

The Rob and Kristen Breakdown

Young Hollywood royalty ruptured last week with the announcement that Aries Kristin Stewart, had quite publicly cheated on her longtime co-star/boyfriend Taurus Robert Pattinson.

Aries women and Taurus men are a difficult match from the start. Aries women are impulsive, headstrong, and very independent. Taureans, by contrast, are slow, mellow and very constant. Much of this could be seen throughout their courtship, with Kristin seeming to keep Rob on his toes, while he relished just hanging out with her, downtime playing guitar and drinking beers with his mates. The Aries woman/Taurus man match can work when their social appetites are in line, which is why this did indeed work for a while- both choosing to keep a similar low key profile during their rise to superstardom.

But the Aries impulsiveness had be hard to curb, especially at such a young age. She may have found their life together quite simply boring after a certain amount of time, and was turned on by the excitement of an affair with a doting director. Taurus Rob will be finding this crack in the cement of his life extremely hard to deal with and it will take him a very long time to get over this relationship.

The Aquarius Leo Love Story

Opposite signs are notoriously attracted to one another and often forge some of the most enduring and happy relationships. Take for example the beloved royal Cancer/Capricorn couple William and Kate, and globetrotting Sagittarius/Gemini glamorpusses Brad and Angelina.

Well it just so happens that Brad’s former love, Aquarius Jennifer Aniston, has finally found herself in the arms of a Leo man, Justin Theroux, giving her a chance for love with her opposite sign. Justin and Jen have been attached at the hip since hooking up earlier this summer. And they have also been palling around with another Leo, Justin’s friend photographer Terry Richardson (Who took this photograph of them in September).

Aquarians are amongst the most determined, stubborn and routine-oriented members of the zodiac. By the time they are adults they tend to have found their niche, usually one that very few others occupy, and they stake out their territory and dig their heels in. Rinse and repeat. Their niches/lifestyles however, tend to be anything but ordinary. Take Jen for example, who has corned the market on rom-coms, yoga, healthful living, Cabo, and bad-boy boyfriends. Like all Aquarians, she is hardworking, future oriented, and committed to her path.

Leos are the perfect counterpoint to the driven and independent Aquarius. Also incredibly creative and purposeful, Leos can relate to the Aquarians commitment to creating a world and life of their own imagining. Yet Leo’s thrive in warmth and family. We can think of the heat and revelry of the month of August, when Leo thrives, juxtaposed with the privacy and isolation of February when Aquarius rules the days. Jennifer and Justin were born just about exactly 6 months apart, though in different years. Jennifer, on February 11 (1969), and Justin on August 10 (1971).

Moon signs rule our emotional nature, and both Jen and Justin have their moons in impulsive, extravagant and fun loving fire signs, Sagittarius and Aries respectively. These two place a premium on enjoyment in their relationship. And certainly her many fans are happy to see Jen enjoying her life!

Marion Cotillard & Guillaume Canet

MARION COTILLARD September 30, 1975 4:50 AM Paris, France

GUILLAUME CANET April 10, 1973 Boulougne, France ** Time Unknown

The international film community was thrilled this year with the announcement that celebrated low-key lovebirds Marion Cotillard and Guillaume Canet are expecting their first child together. After many years of living together quietly in Paris, rumors began circulating in 2010 that they had decided to marry when Marion was spotted wearing a diamond ring on her left hand. While they have not confirmed or denied their plans to marry, the couple are clearly taking their next steps as a family.

The passion between an Aries man and a Libra woman is one of the most classic love stories of the zodiac. The Aries man is full of bravado, swagger and passion. He charges through life like a warrior, paying little heed to anything that does not excite his creative, competitive spirit.

The Libra woman is his ultimate counterpoint. She is composed, well mannered, articulate and high minded. He lives within the needs and impulses of his immediate environment, she lives gracefully within the world at large, deftly managing her own desires and demands with those of the many others in her life. The Aries man is mesmerized by these skills and talents as well as her sheer beauty and endless charm. She brings him calm and assurance, he brings her an endless stream of admiration and excitement.

This pair of opposite signs also has a strong interest in fairness and balance. They will strive to live by a personal moral code that they set. Both Marion and Guillaume have their moon in the loving, domestic sign of Cancer. They prefer to share their time and their deepest emotions only with one another and their close circle of immediate friends and family. And they are sure to make their newest addition the center of their life.
