Apple Martin, Gwyneth Paltrow and Coldplay Chris Martin’s daughter was wheeled out for a time-warp debutante ball in Paris. Le Bal des Débutantes is an annual invitation-only event that introduces young women from prominent families “into society” and aims to raise money for charities. Apple wore a strapless blue Valentino gown that took 750 hours to make and was paired with a ‘cavalier’ from a distinguished background, in her case a German count, son of a film producer.
It’s enough to jump start another French Revolution.
Apple was born 14 May 2004 1 am London and has her Taurus Sun on her IC making her private and very attached to her family and roots with her Sun square a kind but vague 1st house Neptune. Her Sun is also inconjunct her Pluto for an uneasiness about how best to use her influence. She has a financially lucky 8th house Jupiter opposition Uranus; and a sociable, charming, though can be manipulative Venus opposition Pluto square a 2nd house Pisces Moon. Good at putting on a show and keen on financial stability. She does have a tricky Mars Saturn in her 6th which will make her hard-working but could suggest health issues down the line. Her Saturn sextile Jupiter is inconjunct Neptune for an head-in-the-clouds Neptunian yod.
Her earthy, Fixed Taurus Sun will anchor her which is a help with a fairly disorganized, insecure though compassionate Moon.
Her mother Gwyneth, 27 September 1972 5.25pm Los Angeles, does not have the easiest of temperaments with a controlling (and then some) Sun conjunct Pluto in Libra conjunct Mars in late Virgo, all in her 7th house of relationships. With her Saturn in Gemini in her 4th hinting at a cool, workaholic approach to domestic and family life with her Saturn in a hard-edged square to Mars; plus her Saturn is conjunct a restless Gemini Moon. Her Saturn Moon trine an 8th house Uranus. Her megaton Mars Pluto Sun conjunction plus Venus all fall in Apple’s 8th which is possessive, suggesting a deep-rooted bond (chain) between mother and daughter which it will be difficult to separate from.
Their relationship chart is a web of complexity with an affectionate composite Sun Venus; plus an edgy Sun inconjunct Uranus with Uranus opposition Saturn; a power-couple Jupiter Pluto and Pluto square Mars. All of which will take time to play out but suggests difficulties in embracing differing needs and wishes between the pair and undercurrents of power struggles and resentment.
Her father Chris Martin, 2 March 1977 5.52pm (?) Exeter, England, has his Jupiter on her Sun for a reassuringly, supportive connection. Though his Mars in Aquarius opposition Saturn square Uranus all impacting on Apple’s Neptune suggests a confusing and erratic chemistry between them.
All three have afflicted Mars in their charts which suggests that anger (and assertion) is not something well handled within the family.
Another Taurus in the news – Donatella Versace, 2 May 1955 5am Reggio di Calabria, Italy, the fashion designer, attracted comment for her changed looks as she stepped out at the Devil Wears Prada musical. With her Sun on her Taurus Ascendant she will be naturally focused on her appearance and brand. And that plus an attention-seeking Pluto in her 5th plus a 5th house Virgo Moon, means she will rarely go unnoticed. Tr Saturn is opposition her Moon and square her Mars for a few weeks ahead but there is nothing much affecting her Ascendant or her Venus.
