Coco's Complex

Courtney Cox

Courtney Cox worries about her daughter's perfectionism, saying in an interview:

"[My daughter is] very artistic, but she's also a perfectionist. I feel a little bad: That's the part I see in her that's like me — and you don't want them to have that at age 5." 

Good news, mom. She'll probably grow out of it as she learns to manage that Virgoan need to do everything right. Coco was born with Jupiter in the sign of Virgo, a sign that likes to weigh, measure, and control many things in its world. Jupiter represents our desire to grow and reach our potential, an agenda which Virgo is in total agreement with, but Virgo wants to grow by improving, becoming better at whatever they set their mind to than they were before. It's out of this need to grow but to control that Virgo's perfectionism complex is born. 

Virgo gains a lot of pleasure and self-esteem by doing things right, but it can be pretty hard on itself when it makes a mistake, which can make it very hard for them to have patience with themselves when they are learning and practicing. Coco can stop herself from trying sometimes because she's afraid it'll come out wrong. Because of the tense relationship between Jupiter in Virgo and Venus (a planet not just of love but also creativity and art) in Gemini, she may often tense up and stop the free-flowing creativity in experimental Gemini. As she learns to recognize this feeling and gets more confident in her abilities (not to mention gaining experience), she'll be able to more naturally push through her fears of getting it "wrong!"

Gemini Signature Star Child: Coco Riley Arquette

Courteney Cox

Coco, daughter of Courteney Cox and David Arquette, is our featured Gemini "Star Child." The Kiddiegram reports are the heart and soul of Kiddiegram, because they were created out of a desire to help you understand and nurture your precious one in the unique ways they need. A Kiddiegram is truly a "user's manual for parents.

David Arquette

Coco not only has her sun in the sign of Gemini, but also Mercury and Venus. It's typically known that Geminis are often knowledgeable (even if they only know a little about a whole lot) and have a love for learning and talking, and talking, and has talking been mentioned, too?! But with Mercury (the planet of thinking, learning, and oh yes, talking) in this sign so close to her Sun, she gets double the effect (or would that be quadruple, since Gemini is already the sign of the twins)? With Venus there as well, she can definitely turn on the charm when she wants to, utilizing Gemini's flexibility to get along with just about anyone, at least for a short period of time. It's a good thing her down-to-earth Taurus moon can keep her grounded. Gemini is often wanting to go in all directions at once, drawn to whatever catches it's attention at the moment, but Taurus wants to just sit still and let the world come to it!

Gemini usually likes to keep things lighthearted, but Coco has brooding Pluto opposite her Sun's position, which lends a certain hard-edged wisdom and insight to what she already easily observes around her. Coco is definitely intellectually shrewd. More on this aspect from Coco's Kiddiegram:

Sun opposite Pluto

      Coco Riley is very willful in a quiet, subtle way and she has a very private, hidden, secretive side that she shares with very few people. She wants to be in control of her own life and she is inclined to resist or even undermine anyone in a position of authority. Becoming a significant or powerful person in her own right is important to her, so she is likely to push away from or struggle with anyone who has power over her. Try not to force your own will upon her unnecessarily, as she is likely to resent it fiercely.

     Coco Riley is a complex person and she may have strong inner drives or ambitions that even she does not totally understand. She tends to go to extremes and be a bit of a fanatic, in her own way.
