Celine Dion

Birth Details:
March 30, 1968
Charlemagne, Canada

Known as La Petite Quebecoise as a child, Celine Dion -- the youngest of 14 children born to musical parents -- started singing at the age of five and was performing professionally by her 13th birthday. Manager Rene Angelil saw big talent in the lass from Quebec and promoted her aggressively, which paid off handsomely in their native Canada as well as in France. Dion's records have sold in the tens of millions on both sides of the pond, marking her as one of the most successful international singers ever. The songstress learned English in 1989 and turned her focus to the U.S. music market. Movies have been good to Dion, too, but not for her acting -- it's soundtracks that are her domain. Scoring her first Grammy for the theme song from Beauty and the Beast, Dion also sang one of the most recognized movie anthems ever, 'My Heart Will Go On,' from the movie Titanic. Dion and Angelil are now married and parents -- and Dion's taking Vegas by storm. What do the stars suggest she'll conquer next?

Born with her Sun in Aries, Dion is unafraid to blaze a trail and is possessed of a competitive spirit that ensures that she'll make her mark. The singer prefers to live in the present and loves to get things going -- lots of things, preferably all at once. Headstrong as well, she can be impatient if things aren't moving along as quickly as she'd like. Since her Sun conjuncts Saturn, Dion may find that her Aries spunk gets the cold shoulder from the planet of discipline. The singer may struggle with her self-image -- and she'll find the best tonic for this to be hard work.

Celine Dion's Tarot Reading

With her Mercury in Pisces, Dion is an emoter of the first order. Mercury speaks to communication, while Pisces is all about feelings. Put the two together and you have a woman who communicates her feelings through words or, in this case, music. Many Pisces are musically inclined and also share a heightened emotional awareness. Consequently, it's most natural for Dion to put her creative ideas into song.

Since her Mercury is conjunct Venus, the planet of love and beauty, the diva's appearance is always pleasing. Dion's charm and grace are guaranteed, and she'll find it easy to get along with others, including her legion of fans. This lady will also function best when in love, so her marriage to manager Angelil is a great match for many reasons. Mercury also finds itself opposite Pluto in Dion's chart, a signal that this woman knows how to get her message to the masses. Yes, that Titanic song did reach every corner of the globe! Pluto's influence here will also put Dion in touch with dissenting opinions and better prepare her to deal with naysayers.

Thanks to Venus, which is in Pisces as well, this musical marvel values love above all -- no wonder she sings those love songs so well. Romantic love is a theme near and dear to Dion's heart, and while Pisces may make things a bit hazy at times, the singer wouldn't have it any other way. Since Venus is opposite both Uranus and Pluto in her chart, Dion's dealings with love will certainly be interesting. Venus opposite Uranus pegs the songstress as a lover of exotic types who is uncomfortable when bound by traditional commitments, but Venus's opposition to Pluto speaks to overwhelming passion in love and marriage.

It's Mars in Taurus that marks the songstress as a determined woman. The Bull's practical yet determined approach reaps plentiful rewards, and that's exactly what these earthy folks are after: money. Looks like the boffo-selling Dion is already there! Those graced by this placement are usually good in business; after dark, they're sensuous, albeit somewhat jealous. Since her Mars trines Jupiter, the planet of good fortune, look for Dion to be an enthusiastic and motivated individual. With Jupiter on the scene, plentiful luck is also part of the plan -- clearly.
