mutable signs seem significant for acting, or having prominent mercury placements. And a good relationship between the moon and mercury.

Interesting food for thought; thank you so much!

100% the Moon. In a sidereal context, consider how often sidereal Cancer (roughly July 17-August 15, but I may not be exact there) are found in versatile performance roles. Sidereal Taurus Moons can also change and adapt personas to get their way with people.

Riiiiight. Gotcha! The only thing that stinks about using the Moon as significator is it'll be at the bendings of the nodes in Sagittarius and then detriment in Capricorn.

Mercury! Sooo many actors have prominent Gemini placements!

Sun for sure! An honorable mention to Neptune if you use outers. Mercury feels apt too

@elysianastro.bsky.social I was thinking the same!!

Venus in Leo.

Thank you; will look into the Sun!

Venus and Mercury mostly, I'd say.

It's a mixed bag imo, Sun is more performative but not all performance is acting (interpreting a role), I'd give that more to the Moon and Mercury. Might depend on the contexts?

Yeah I completely get it. It's performing, it's memorizing lines, it's interpreting roles, it's connecting with other people in the moment, it's a whole lot of things. For the purposes of elections astrology I need to choose something 🫠

If I were you I'd place the Sun in the 11th, waxing Moon preferably ruled by a benefic and both as free from the malefics as you can. Extra points if bonified, has dignity and the lord of the ASC is in communion with the luminaries—theres so many variables lol

Yesssssss and this is where I'm banging my head against the wall lol; the submission needs to be made by Wednesday evening. He'd be working with one of these three charts for 11H Sun at a reasonable time. 4th chart is the chart I was leaning towards.

(boyfriend is submitting an audition self-tape for a role he really wants, for context)

The 1st and 4th are my fav; if you want to consider the LoF, I'd go for the 1st & since it's a submission, having the benefics in good + visible houses feels ideal. My only concern for the 1st is having L1 in the 12th but I'd choose whichever of his houses rises or culminates best in the election.

We're flying blind on his chart; we have no time. I do know that Pisces AC chart is conjunct his Jupiter. I'll mess with the AC in the 1st chart and see if I can get a good D12/Decan/Face to help. I don't love the late AC and was trying to avoid L1 in 12H, as you said. I appreciate your input; ty!

Np and best of luck!

Mercury! Olomi says Virgo is the sign of acting

There’s something about Neptune and the 5H for sure. I should check my cousin’s chart - they went to acting school overseas and currently appear in a quite a few brand name commercials. I’ll report back!

After a quick check - they were born on the day of a Mercury Cazimi in Virgo (trine Neptune). Likely have a Scorpio Moon.
