Hailee Steinfeld: Best Supporting Actress Nominee

14-year-old Hailee Steinfeld garnered an Academy Award nomination for her role in True Grit. She played the role of Mattie Ross, a young girl who tries to track down her father's murderer and bring him to justice. Her character is smart, motivated, powerful, and very mature for her age.

Not unlike Hailee herself!

Hailee came to acting with great determination. She made an agreement with her mother to "study for one full year" before allowing her to take further steps toward an acting career, an agreement she stuck to (and boy, did it pay off!)

Her steady commitment comes as no surprise to Mlle. Kiddie. If Hailee were born in the wee hours of the morning, she may have a Sagittarius Moon, but in all likelihood, her moon is in the sign of Capricorn. She has the heart (moon) of the same stuff her on-screen character: maturity and determination. Capricorn wants to set its sights on a goal and then drive steadily toward it until it's achieved. Her Kiddiegram reveals just how true this is:
Hailee is an industrious, rather serious, practical little person, not the light, frivolous, happy-go-lucky type. To feel secure, she needs structure and a clearly defined set of rules and boundaries. Conscientious and mature even in youth, Hailee can be relied upon to keep her commitments. Sometimes her "obligations" weigh heavily upon her, however, and life seems like serious business indeed, so try not to expect too much or burden her with more responsibility than is really necessary.
Truly though, even without the Capricorn Moon, Hailee would have drive and determination in her very soul, as she was born with it. With her south node in the sign of Aries, and Saturn right on top of it, she will probably have a thing or two to learn about actually not pushing so hard or expecting so much of herself as she grows up. Aries is the sign of initiative and primal force; it leaps into life at full speed. Saturn's handling those reins, though, so her urge to race ahead is tempered by maturity, the realization of the need to plan, and to take the time to develop skill and expertise.

Elsewhere in her chart, her Sagittarius Sun will have her optimistically shooting for the stars (pardon the pun) and with Jupiter in Capricorn in a conjunction with Neptune, the emphasis on a practical, steady (Capricorn) but lofty rise (Jupiter) toward her dreams (Neptune) will ensure this Academy Award nomination will be only the first of many achievements to be proud of.
