★ Marilyn Monroe ★

‧͙⁺˚*･༓☾ Birth Chart Reading ☽༓･*˚⁺‧͙

୨୧ Her big 3 ୨୧

Gemini Sun —Aquarius Moon —Leo rising

Despite being a highly intelligent, cultured, and well-read woman with a personal library of over 400 books, Marilyn Monroe's intelligence was often overlooked during her lifetime. Her curiosity and diverse interests are the things that I mostly attribute to her Gemini sun a sign that is known for being a "jack of all trades." Marilyn’s love for reading was a reflection of her intellectual curiosity. However, the media portrayed her as a one-dimensional figure, focusing solely on her physical appearance and labeling her as a bimbo and sex symbol. Marilyn Monroe's Aquarius moon greatly influenced her worldview and political beliefs. She was a strong advocate for equality, even during a time when it was considered radical to stand up for marginalized groups. For instance, she helped elevate Ella Fitzgerald's career by using her own influence to secure Fitzgerald a performance at a popular nightclub. Marilyn Monroe's Leo rising was a key factor in her becoming the iconic figure that we know today. A savvy businesswoman, she was skilled at reinventing herself to capture the public's attention. Her Leo rising was an extreme example of the placement, a placement associated with glamour, fame, beauty, and self-expression. Scorpio in the 4th house in her chart may have contributed to her difficult upbringing, including living in foster care and having a neglectful, alcoholic mother and an absent father. These challenging circumstances may have influenced her tumultuous love life. What I love about Leo risings in general is that no matter what they’re going through they’re able to wear a persona that shows the outside world otherwise, an example of that was when Marilyn came out of the hospital smiling to the photographers after she had a miscarriage.

✥ Key aspects in her birth chart ✥

A tumultuous childhood

Chiron in the 10th house —Pluto in the 12th house house —Saturn in the 4th house

Chiron: an individual’s greatest emotional wounds.

10th house: public image, reputation, structure, father, fame.

Pluto: an individual’s path to the dark night of the soul and through it. Destruction and regeneration.

12th house: solitude, institutions, confinement, mental illness.

Saturn: an individual’s accountability to their responsibilities. Restriction and limitations.

4th house: home, family, mother, roots.

It is absolutely fascinating to see that Marilyn had these placements in her chart. Chiron’s presence in the 10th house shows that she had to rely solely on herself for parenting and may have felt unwarranted guilt over her father leaving the family. This contributed to her never experiencing a normal childhood and being burdened with an excessive amount of responsibility at a very young age. Her struggles and troubles were evident to the public (the 10th house). The 10th house looks at the 4th house where her Saturn lies the planet of restriction, lessons and struggles in the 4th house the house of home family and the mother which offers insight into her home life and parents. Unfortunately, marilyn’s mother was mentally unstable and struggled with alcoholism, leading to her being institutionalized and unable to provide a stable home environment for Marilyn. As a result, Marilyn never felt safe in her home and lacked a consistent parental figure to rely on. Finally, Pluto in the 12th house, Pluto is the planet of transformation, destruction and rebirth, having this intense planet in this house was really difficult for her she struggled with her mental health all her life this Pluto placement in the 12th house indicated that she had to be put in a foster care because she had no one to take care of her. She had to bear an unreasonable amount of responsibility from a very young age.

Neptune conjuncts her ascendant— Lilith in the 1st house

This placement could help explain the public’s obsession with her and could be a driving factor behind the media’s portrayal of her as nothing but a beauty queen/sex symbol, often neglecting other qualities and talents. Since Neptune could indicate illusion, it’s possible that the way people idolized Marilyn was more based on a fantasy and imagination than reality— merely a projection of her but not the real her. Unfortunately, this skewed depiction of her is the cause of the public’s objectification of her which was deeply dehumanizing and debilitating for her mental health. Lilith in the 1st house might have felt to her like that her deepest wounds, insecurities and shame were crystal clear to her and were things that she might have been aware of constantly all the while being unmercifully sexualized by the media. She is naturally alluring that is what these placements essentially convey.

Mars in pisces

This particular placement is another placement that furthermore made the media and the public objectify her. The Piscean influence in her chart highlights certain characteristics such as a tendency to repress anger which may led to her depression as reported by the close people around her that she would stay in bed & eat, that she wouldn’t shower for days and that her bed would contain food crumbs from all the times she ate on her bed without having the physical and mental strength to clean the room due to her depression. She had a perceived sense of victimhood she felt defeated by the media and the terrors of her past haunting her. Another angle of the illusion that this Piscean placement shows is people’s perception of her, the way they viewed her as a sex symbol despite her stating that she hates sex.

Moon square Saturn

Having her moon in the 7th house squaring her Saturn in the 4th house shows how she tried to fill the void that was caused by her early childhood traumas by clinging onto the men that she was involved with. She might have looked for love in those men but also for her identity. She was an intelligent woman and she was enamored by her husband Arthur Miller who was a playwright who happened to be the first man in her life to validate her intelligence and took her and her hunger for knowledge seriously. Another man who happened to meet her and spend time with her stated that her whole life was a search for identity and that her sexual persona was a complete lie.
