Interpretive Reports

Check these chart interpretations:

From the Indra Report from Kepler.

Sun Square the Ascendant: You have a powerful and shining exterior that others find quite attractive. People come into your life and are happy to know you. Still, you are a hard person to get close to because you have some personal inner conflicts that emerge in all of your relationships. You use your interactions with others to see and work on your inner conflicts. This is a very constructive process of growth through self-expression in connection with others, but it is not always comfortable. You get happier as you get less willful.

Moon Trine the Ascendant: You are able to convey your feelings naturally, with emphasis and dramatic flare. This ability to present common everyday feelings to others as if they were very important can win you an excellent public. You are at ease in any social situation because you are basically at peace with yourself. You seem to know what others want and how you can satisfy their needs. You express yourself in a personable way that others can understand. You perform the most routine and simple tasks in life as if they were interesting and fun.

Mercury Trine the Ascendant: You seem to know just what to say to get your message across to others. You find yourself traveling in order to gain more knowledge. The highway of life for you is interesting and communicating your findings to others is part of the excitement. Intellectual expression in some form is necessary for you to keep learning and you are motivated to keep some form of mental improvement going in your life.

From the Merlin Report from Kepler.

Biography

American musician known as "The Boss", a singer and songwriter, guitarist and leader of "The E Street Band."  A prolific writer of his own material, he does marathon shows where he builds a great rapport with his audience.

From a working class background, Bruce had an unhappy, alienated childhood. He bought his first guitar at 18 for $14 at a local pawnshop and began learning songs from the radio. He began playing with the high school band, "The Castiles" at local gigs. In 1969 he formed his own band, "Steel Mill", which played together for nearly two years. In September 1971, he formed the "Bruce Springsteen Band", a ten-piece group, which evolved into "The E Street Band." In June 1972 he signed a ten-album contract, releasing a debut album in January 1973. The 1973 albums marked the beginning of Springsteen's career and since then, "The Boss" has sold tens of millions of albums and won over legions of loyal fans worldwide in his 30 plus years as a "rock and roll legend." They began moving up, topping the U.S. charts by 1977. His incredibly successful "Born in the USA" was released on 6/17/1984, selling over 12 million copies in the U.S. alone and establishing Springsteen as one of the most dominant forces in '80s rock. In February 1986, he rejected an offer of $12 million for "Born in the USA" to be used for a series of commercials. In the past decade, he had performed in over 500 shows.

In 1987, Tunnel of Love was released during a time when Springsteen was facing marital problems. He began singing of lost love, emotional turmoil, and other adult concerns. He set off after this for one more tour with "The E-Street Band" and then in 1989 they parted ways. Three years later he released two albums, “Human Touch” and “Lucky Town.” The first was more radio orientated while the latter is seen as a step forward for the Springsteen. He did a stint on MTV's Unplugged program and then resumed touring in 1993.

Springsteen married actress Julianne Phillips shortly after midnight on 5/13/1985, 00:15 AM, Lake Oswego, Oregon a few weeks before a sell-out tour reached London. On 8/30/1988, she filed for divorce following newspaper photos that showed the close relationship between Springsteen and his back-up singer, Patti Scialfa. The decree was final on 3/01/1989.

On 1/19/1990, the news media reported that Scialfa was pregnant. Evan James Springsteen was born on 7/25/1989 in Los Angeles. On 12/30/1991, a daughter was born, Jessica Rae, and later a third child. He and Scialfa married in 1991.

After 30 years he is still going strong, "The Boss" is currently touring internationally. In July 2002, he put out his first studio album in seven years, "The Rising", which immediately rose to No. 1 in its first week, selling about 526,000 copies. This represents the best debut of Springsteen's career. Most of the songs on it revolve around the Sept. 11 attacks.  Springsteen went on a media blitz to promote the disc. He appeared on the covers of Time and Rolling Stone, and was featured on "Nightline'', "Late Night with David Letterman'' and "Dateline.'' The Today'' show went to his adopted hometown of Asbury Park, N.J., for a live Springsteen performance. He kicks off a U.S. tour on 8/07/2002 in East Rutherford, N.J.

What Do You Think?

Let's analyze the man who was able to combine the exuberance of '50s rock with the thoughtfulness of '60s rock, producing a powerhouse rock phenomenon in the '70s. Bruce Springsteen is the man of the hour again. Back on the cover of Time Magazine and rolling out a nationwide tour with the E Street Band, Springsteen is barnstorming a post-9/11 message of hope.

  1. Time writes, "Springsteen's pleasure is famously infectious. Springsteen feeds off the crowd, which feeds off him in an endless cycle of stadium euphoria." Can you find this circuit in his chart?
  2. His latest album "The Rising" capitalizes on Bruce's most winning trait - empathy for "the working man" (and woman). Despite being a multi-millionaire and not having had a real job since 18, he always manages to hit the right note when singing the blue-collar blues. How does he manage to tap directly into the minds and hearts of the working class?
  3. In November of 1989 he broke up with his band of 15 years. (He got divorced that year, too.) Thirteen years later they are back together again. "The Rising" is his first album in seven years. Does anyone hear a Saturn cycle? What was going on in 1989 that he devastated his relationships?
