Christina Ricci

Birth Details:
February 12, 1980
Santa Monica, California

Known as the It Girl of the Sundance Film Festival set, Aquarius Christina Ricci can be counted as one of very few child stars to survive the transition from kid star to professional adult actor. And her roles have certainly run the gamut: After coming out of obscurity as Cher's sweet, swimming daughter in Mermaids, she was launched straight down the road to kiddy film stardom, highlighted by her roles in Casper and Now and Then, and by her popular turn as the deadpan Wednesday in The Addams Family. Ricci had a relatively easy trek through her early teen years with those parts, but then moved on to play morally and sexually ambiguous characters in a slew of independent films, including The Ice Storm, Buffalo '66 and The Opposite of Sex. She has big Hollywood charm, however, as she proved in the big-budget Sleepy Hollow, opposite similarly versatile actor Johnny Depp -- but she still goes for challenging films, like the critically acclaimed Monster with Charlize Theron. What do the stars have to say about this multifaceted actress?

Born under an Aquarius Sun, Ricci is no stranger to following her somewhat unconventional dreams. Bored with school at an early age, she chose to take a different route in life by focusing on her acting career. And the inventive Water Bearer in her chart does not let her settle for mundane roles. Her characters are challenging, and she often works with directors who take a unique approach to film. While this rebellious streak could have turned into a problem, and a lack of self-control and discipline, it looks like Ricci has successfully channeled it into a very interesting film career.

Christina Ricci's Tarot Reading

Mercury, the planet of communication, in Pisces means that this woman is no method actor. She is probably far more in tune with the intuitive part of her mind than with the intellectual. Instead of reasoning through a situation, Ricci is much more likely to follow her heart. This may be why she has played some rather precocious characters. Instead of keeping her very marketable sweet little girl image, she took roles that portrayed complicated young women with directly amorous intentions; the Fish in her feels that movies should reflect life.

Any mate will likely have his hands full with this exuberant lady -- her Venus, the planet of love, lies in fiery Aries. Ricci is capable of falling head over heels for a pretty face; it's only later that she might realize her man wasn't exactly what she thought. Her sharp mind can also take a romantic turn, and showering her beau with presents is at the top of the list.

As far as passions go, the sheer number of films that Ricci has under her belt says it all. With Mars in Virgo, this star is willing to work her way up in order to become exactly who she wants to be. She was even willing to sit through the creation of some flops in order to get noticed for better roles. The clever Ms. Ricci formed her own production company and spends her time writing screenplays when she's not acting in yet another film.

With a good portion of her chart displaying earth signs, Ricci is reliable and determined and a hard, steady worker. The actress is grounded too; whatever she does next will certainly be just as successful as everything she has done so far.
