Virgo Signature Star Child: Leonardo Ángel Charles Baldwin

Leonardo Ángel Charles Baldwin, second son and third child for Hilaria & Alec Baldwin, is our Virgo Signature Star Child!

Alec & Hilaria

The houses on the top half of an astrology chart symbolize different ways of participating in the world at large, as opposed to the bottom half of an astrology chart which is often more about one's experience in the immediate, personal environment. Most immediately notable about Leo's chart is the fact that 9 out of 10 planets lie above the horizon (in the top half of the chart), which represents a great desire to see what's out there! He will be attracted to big ideas and movements on a grand scale. He may grow up with an interest in travel, philosophy, or sociology, but especially motivated to connect with others, with a 7th house (the house of relationships) packed full of planets.

Leo may be very socially-minded but not necessarily outgoing or extroverted. With Pisces rising and sensitive Neptune on top of it, he may be easily over-stimulated and even appear shy. Despite a core desire to make meaningful connections with others, he is also very independent, with an individualistic Aquarius moon and Uranus placed prominently in his 1st house of Self with Mars in a favorable alignment.

More on that from his Kiddiegram:

Mars in Sagittarius:
     Leo is very exuberant, high-spirited, full of energy and vitality. He sometimes lacks staying-power and concentration, however. He will stand up for himself and his beliefs when challenged, though he does not really like to fight at all.

Mars in 9th house:
     When it comes to his beliefs and convictions, Leo will stand up for himself.  He can also be self-righteous and preachy, which may be amusing to others when he's young, but not as he gets older.  Having a cause or an ideal to fight for stirs him up and gets him moving as nothing else will.

Mars Trine Uranus:
     Leo is daring, courageous, rambunctious, and full of energy and high spirits, and he can be a bit wild and reckless, also. He is willfully independent and dislikes conforming to schedules and routines. His vitality is strong.

August CeleBaby RoundUp

Congrats to the new and once-again mommies in Hollywood last month! Highlights include baby number 4 for Tori Spelling and Dean McDermott, and a first child for actress Anna Faris and Chris Pratt. Virgo Jack Pratt was born "earlier than expected" on August 25th. Virgo Finn Davey McDermott was born in the early evening on August 30th.

Finn was born with a sensible and earthy Virgo Sun, and an objective Aquarius Rising (just like mom) but he is all heart with four planets in emotional water signs. With Venus in Cancer, there is nothing he won't do for those he loves; he'll love taking care of others but being the baby in a larger family, he'll probably enjoy lots of coddling and nurturing. His Moon is in the sign of Pisces, right next to Neptune, revealing a gentle and very empathetic heart. As he grows his Aquarius Rising will develop into a cool and laid-back persona, but those who know him best will know just how tender he is underneath it all. It'll be important for him to learn to speak up for himself since his south node is in close-mouthed Taurus hidden in his private 4th house, but he'll have a whole family of older siblings to take care of him!

Beach Birthday for Virgo Henry Story Driver

Nope, we're not in Virgo birthday season yet! 3-1/2 year old Henry attended a friend's birthday party at the beach this weekend with mom Minnie Driver. Minnie has proclaimed her love of the ocean and it's probably something her and son Henry share in common. They both also share a Scorpio Moon in their natal charts; the bottomless depth of the ocean appeals to these intense, watery moon signs. 

That's not all they share, astrologically speaking. They both have strong Virgo influences in their chart: Minnie's south node, and Henry's Sun and Saturn. Minnie's natural orientation toward a practical and analytical perspective in life will be a great example for Henry. Where Saturn lies in our chart, we can often find our teachers; those people in our lives that we naturally look up to, not with starry-eyed adoration but respect for the wisdom they offer us. 

With Uranus opposite his Sun, Henry does have a bit of the rebel in him, and mom can understand that as well, with her Sun in the rebel sign of Aquarius. Looks like this duo is well-matched, in family love and in the stars!

Valentina Knows Best

Salma Hayek

Selma Hayek stars in Savages this weekend, and she is, of course, adamant that her 4-year-old daughter, Valentina, will not be seeing the "drug cartel drama" (good parenting, ha!) But in a recent appearance on The Tonight Show, Salma says:

"Actually, this was the only movie that she was not on the set. I usually bring her on the set and she always likes to sit right next to the monitor and she bosses everyone around."

Future director, eh? Mlle. Kiddie is not surprised. Valentina has the Sun, south node, and Saturn all in the sign of Virgo. Virgo is a sign of many talents, and one of them is being well-organized, practical, and yes, bossy. Virgos often think they know best, and the trouble is (for those around them), they're usually right! 

Valentina also has the moon in Capricorn, which is known as the sign of the manager, among other things, a sign meant to be in charge because they are practical like Virgo, but can also see the bigger picture, good at managing projects with lots of components. They get things done! She would whip everyone on a movie set into shape in no time flat!

Valentina: Like Mother, Like Daughter

Valentina is a young woman who knows what she wants! Mom Salma Hayek revealed Valentina's intended career plans in a recent interview:

"She told me two days ago, she was very serious looking out the window in the car, and she turned and said: 'You know what, mom? I want to be an actress, like now.'"

Valentina has a Capricorn Moon, which reflects a strong orientation toward setting and achieving goals, but it's in her second house of resources, so she will need to test herself to gain confidence in her abilities.

Luckily, Valentina's got a lot on her side. Not only does she have two successful parents, but Jupiter in her first house in its own sign of Sagittarius, which reveals an optimistic and confident personality. She'll almost always be inclined to believe in herself and try, try again. But she's not naive. Her hard-working Capricorn Moon is in an easy trine with her Virgo Sun in her tenth house of career, so she was born to shine (Sun) for working hard at her craft (Virgo, Capricorn).

Mom Salma is already working that humble and industrious Virgo:

"I like to teach her things like chores and to help in the kitchen and make her bed," she explains. "I think it's important to do those things. She's becoming a really good helper. I'm very proud of her. She's very organized, very neat."

A Virgo Sun very neat? To say the least!

Happy Birthday Virgo Kids!

The Sun is in Virgo from August 23rd to September 23 this year, which means Mlle. Kiddie is much overdue to wish these youngsters a happy birthday!

Virgo children are keen observers and love to learn. They, like Gemini, are ruled by the planet Mercury, the planet of the mind, but where Gemini goes in many directions, Virgos like to focus and analyze what they see. They catch a lot of details that others miss, and are fascinated with the inner workings and structure of whatever they are examining.

A Virgo child really loves to be helpful. Virgo is the sign of service, so it takes pride in feeling like it has something of worth to offer. It's one of the reasons a Virgo child can get so upset when they feel like they are doing something wrong or failing the objective, whether it's a task or a game. Sometimes they may avoid trying something new out of fear of failing or because they don't like the awkwardness of the learning curve. They are very sensitive to criticism, because they can be so hard on themselves in this regard. They will enjoy clear instructions and rules so they know what expectations they can meet, but they often expect more of themselves than even you do!

Last year we visited the chart of then 2-1/2 year old Valentina Pinault, daughter of beauty Salma Hayek, and found out she wasn't buying the tall tale of Santa Claus. Virgo children can be pretty shrewd! It's hard to pull the wool over their eyes, although if you can spin a tale that seems to make logical sense, they just might go for it. Mlle. Kiddie wonders if Salma has had any luck in her quest!

Yes, Valentina, There IS a Santa Claus!

Valentina Pinault participates in a long-time tradition and sits on Santa's lap while mom Salma snaps a pic. What does Mlle. Kiddie think she might have told Santa she wants for the holidays?

With the multitude of earthy focus in Valentina's chart, such as a Virgo Sun, a Capricorn Moon and even grounded Saturn riding on her South Node, we might imagine practical gifts pleasing this gal. But appointment books and drawer organizers probably won't excite a 3-year-old! Keeping it practical for a 3 year old would probably mean a focus on hands-on toys, like building blocks or Play-doh.

The Sun and Moon sign can tell you a lot about a child's interests, but planets traditionally known for what they can tell you about joy, pleasure, and what we want, we look to Jupiter and Venus. In Valentina's chart, they are both in the fire signs Sagittarius and Leo, respectively. Fire signs are more about active, demonstrative and imaginative play, so Valentina might have asked Santa for something like a dress-up trunk of clothes, an adventure/explorer's kit, or active games like Twister or even a jump-rope.

Mlle. Kiddie has the feeling, though, that whatever she whispered in Santa's ear had little to do with what she wants for the holidays, and more like "who are you, really?" because as we found out earlier this year, Valentina doesn't actually believe in Santa Claus!

Harry Potter's Rupert Grint: Closet Rap Star?

Rupert Grint was sometimes referred to as "that other kid" in the Harry Potter films, listed as almost an afterthought behind Emma Watson (Hermione) and Daniel Radcliffe (Harry) but it's been said that he has 'the best acting chops' more than once, and he already has several films under his belt outside of the Harry Potter film series.

So how did he get the role of Ron Weasley (originally his favorite character in the books, by the way) in the Harry Potter films? His amazing rap skills, obviously.

"The books were becoming quite a phenomenon and I was a big fan of them," he says. "There was this news program in England called Newsround and they wanted kids my age to kind of, sort of come forward and send in application forms and stuff. So I basically just made a videotape of myself kind of doing a rap ... I'll do the first line: 'Hello there, my name's Rupert Grint, I hope you like this and don't think I stink.' I was 10!"

His co-star, Emma Watson, has described him as "calm and collected," and Dan Radcliffe has called him "the most laid-back guy in the world."

While it's not typical to describe a Virgo Sun as 'laid back', Mlle. Kiddie is not too surprised to hear that from his tres Leo friend Dan. A double earth (Virgo Sun, Capricorn Moon) fellow would be apparently less excitable than someone with all that Leo fire energy.

Virgo is often called finicky and fussy, but one of the traits not mentioned often enough is Virgo's humility, which makes him not as likely to grab a spotlight but just humbly work hard at his craft. Both Virgo and Capricorn, his moon sign, reveal an ability to work hard and perfect whatever it's dedicated to, making it no wonder that he shows so much promise in his acting. Capricorn also can shoulder burdens (sometimes a little too well), so he probably didn't as much trouble as some kids might in taking on the great responsibility of working so hard at such a young age. With Mars in Aries, he can propel himself forward with enthusiasm and be unstoppable!

Capricorn Moons also tend to bring a dry sense of humor and they can have quite a sense of comedic timing with a well-placed but not overdone joke. We can see him deliver this style in some of Ron's comments in Harry Potter, especially in the later films, and something we're likely to see more of in different roles he plays outside of the innocence of Ron Weasley.

Some fun tidbits about Rupert: he has a real fear of spiders just like his character Ron. He also wanted to be an ice cream man when he was a kid and he actually purchased an ice cream van and brought it to the set on the last day and served everyone ice cream! Chalk that up to his Venus in Cancer--relating to others by giving generously to their tummies!

Natalie Morales New Son Cute as a Cupcake.

Natalie Morales, gave birth to a second son.Luke Hudson Rhodes, on September 9th His four year old brother Josh (Joseph Stockton Rhodes)had already agreed to share his toys. His Today family gave a shower for his Mom before his arrival. His Mom loved the mini-alphabet goodies..particularly the carrot cake

Pix of the shower from OK magazine

Luke was born with a Sun in Virgo. His Mom was born in Taiwan

on June 6th, 1972. These two mutable sun signs (Virgo and Gemini)

will make a nice duo. Particularly if he enjoys cupcakes. He may follow in his father's footsteps (his Dad's an investment consultant) as he has a Sun Conjunct Saturn and a Moon in Capricorn. However Jupiter is about ten degrees away from this moon (which will give it a Sagittarius touch) and his personal planets (Mars, Venus and Mercury) are in the sign of Libra he'll be charming, despite his no nonsense down to earth agenda on the planet. We don't know what time Luke was born, but since his parents reside in Hoboken, New Jersey, Mlle Kiddie best guesstimate (for entertainment purposes only) cast the celebrity chart wheel for NJ. If we ever find out Luke's exact birth time we'll do a little on-line Kiddiegram for him.
