Gemini Michael J. Fox appears on the June 2011 cover of Good Housekeeping Magazine, as he prepares to celebrate his 50th birthday in June. In a long interview, he shares some of the things his 4 kids enjoy, including the 'book' that his daughter Esmé is writing!
"She spent the past two weeks writing a book about Greek gods. And when I say she's written a book about Greek gods, I mean she's written a book about [them]. She's broken it down: Demeter and Apollo...she's got every Greek god listed, and a description of them, and then pictures she found on the Internet. She's a really interesting, bright 9-year-old girl."Whether it's a hobby or a school project, it's no surprise to Mlle. Kiddie that Esmé enjoys mythology. Esmé has three planets in her 9th house of education, but the 9th house experience isn't just about learning the A-B-C's of something, but about seeking the meaning of the big questions and answers to life; it's the house of the philosopher. So what better way to philosophize than by hanging out with stories of the Greek gods?!
Storytelling is a meaningful and ancient way to explore the big questions, but Esmé will probably especially love this kind of storytelling for it's poetry, as Mercury, the planet of the mind, is exceptionally close to Venus, planet of love and beauty, in Esmé's chart. Information becomes art with this planetary combination, especially in the sign of Libra, also a sign of beauty and art. Esmé's Moon is also in the sign of Gemini, so she'll never stop wanting to learn! With her Moon also close to practical Saturn in the 6th house of work and tasks, you can be certain she knows how to organize what she's learned like a pro.
