The radiantly beautiful Halle Berry, a constant presence on the screen for 25 years, with an erratic romantic life, has raised eyebrows with an over-exposed outfit for the Met Gala and celebrating Mother’s Day with an Instagram post of herself naked in bed with her musician lover.
Her charm and luminous looks along with a fair few successes have obscured just how rumbustious her personal life has been – with several very short lived marriages, descriptions of abusive relationships, financial law suits, custody suits and a domestic violence incident when a former husband had an altercation with a present boyfriend.
Her career has seen similar highs and lows with Variety noting in 2017 about one lacklustre film: “It should be said that Berry has given some of the best and worst performances of the past quarter-century, but this is perhaps the only one that swings to both extremes in the same movie.” She has recently moved into producing and directing.
She was born 14 August 1966 11.59pm Cleveland, Ohio, and has a 4th house Sun Leo with Mercury Moon in Leo and Venus in Cancer also in the 4th house. A settled home life and privacy are important to her which makes her lifestyle all the more bizarre. Though admittedly she does have an emphasised house Uranus Pluto conjunction in Virgo with all its contradictions and attendant chaos in her romantic, emotional and dramatic 5th house.
She has a creative, overly emotional Water Grand Trine of a passionately enthusiastic Venus, Mars, Jupiter conjunction in Cancer trine Saturn in Pisces trine Neptune South Node in Scorpio, formed into a Kite with Saturn opposition Uranus Pluto. Her Leo Sun is square Neptune opposition Taurus North Node on her Ascendant. The Taurus Node has a tendency to become involved in intense tugs of war financially and emotionally, and her Neptune plus a Water Grand Trine possibly makes her less self-aware than is helpful, since she’ll live in her own self-protective bubble of reality.
At the moment tr Pluto is crossing her final degree Capricorn Midheaven to start moving through her career 10th for many years. Sometimes Pluto on the MC can bring a reputation breakdown and career-collapse though it can also in a less dramatic fashion start a long period of searching for a new, more meaningful career direction. Tr Uranus since 2023 has been moving through her 1st which is often a defiant time of making a stand for individuality and not caring what others think or say. Her Solar Return at the moment has Uranus on the Ascendant so she will be more rebellious even than usual.
Tr Pluto is also opposition her Moon Mercury in 2025/26 which will intensify her feelings with ongoing changes within the family. I can’t imagine her children will appreciate mom throwing caution and modesty to the winds.
Her present romance is with musician Van Hunt, 8 March 1970. His passionate Sun Venus in Pisces opposition Pluto is a good connection with her Jupiter, Mars, Venus in Cancer but not with her Saturn in Pisces. And his hard-edged, short-tempered Mars Saturn in Taurus square her Moon Mercury does not look a good-news connection.
It’ll be interesting to see what happens with tr Pluto crossing her Midheaven.
