A Lighthearted Look at the 'Buffy Moms'

Although the television series Buffy the Vampire Slayer has been off the air for almost 8 years (yet still has a strong fan base), most of the Buffy girls have moved on into new roles, including adding New Mom to their resumes!

Leo Charisma Carpenter (Cordelia) was the first Buffy mom, giving birth to Aries baby boy Donovan Charles in 2003. Exactly 6 years later, Alyson Hannigan (Willow) had an Aries baby girl, Satyana Maria. That same fall, Sarah Michelle Gellar (Buffy), had a Virgo baby girl, Charlotte Grace.

So did this crime fighting threesome (albeit on television only) give birth to the next watcher, the next slayer, and the next charming witch?

Donovan Charles: Future Slayer?
Sarah Michelle Gellar (Buffy) certainly played the Slayer, but of this second generation threesome, Donovan would be the likely candidate. His Scorpio Rising observes keenly and has sharp instincts, so nothing much gets past him. His Aries Sun in the 5th house also adds an element of playfulness, and Mercury, the planet of the mind, so close to his sun, gives him the quickness and agility he needs not only to react instantly to slay a vampire, but the ability to make a pithy comment on the fly. All the tools a Slayer needs!

His Capricorn Moon enables him to be a self-starter, and to focus on what needs to be done. Capricorn Moons can sometimes feel like they shoulder the weight of the world, and often do their best to live up to those expectations with integrity.


Satyana Maria Denisof: Mischievous Witch?
One look at little Sati and we can see that mischievous (and adorable!) sparkle in her eye. She's got all kinds of magic in her little fingers that would make her the perfect candidate for her mom's role of Willow. She charms us with Venus conjunct her Sun, knowing the right things to do to make us smile and adore her.

With her wealth of planets in Pisces, including the moon and Mars, she has a gentle and sweet heart, but is also deeply tapped into the realm of intuition and imagination. Yes, Satyana, we believe in fairies and magic when you're around!


Charlotte Grace Prinze: Future Watcher?
Charlotte is 'Grace-ful' indeed. With three planets in Virgo, she knows the rules and has the capability to do things right, but with a Libra Moon and Mars in Cancer, she's got style, grace, and compassion. Virgos are the most detail-oriented of the zodiac; noticing and thinking of all the little things that others may miss makes her an excellent problem solver. Mercury is also conjunct her Sun, coupled with disciplined Saturn, so her patience and ability to find and organize research makes her an excellent candidate to take on the Watcher role.

With Mars in Cancer, her desire to protect and care for others might make her a little too attached to her Slayer, but in the grand tradition of Giles, that's not half bad!
