What part do the stars play in the relationship between Nigella Lawson and Charles Saatchi? Find out more in this article by Peter Watson.
Nigella Lawson: Capricorn
An inability to get to grips with innermost thoughts and feelings results from having his Gemini Sun restricted by straightlaced Saturn. There's also a lack of water in his chart and he puts a lot of his energy into areas over which he feels he has tight control. He has an instinct for the materialistic side of life, emphasised by Jupiter's tie-up with Venus, but he's currently in line for a major shake-up.
Does this star attraction have staying power?
We might think Nigella can look after herself but even she at times feels a need to be taken care of. And Saturn's prominence in their combined chart suggests that Charles Saatchi can play the parental role that's often so important to her. However, they're each aware of the value of balance in the relationship and - she especially - will want to discuss the strengths and weaknesses of their partnership to avoid complacency creeping in. Their individuality is vital to both of them and this is where compromises may have to be made.
Born: January 6, 1960
With the Moon in Aries Nigella displays her womanliness and motherly instinct for all to see. However she combines that with a ruthless determination to succeed, helped by having half her planets in fire signs. But right now Pluto is at right angles to her North Node which means she'll soon be forced to make major decisions. Which of her great passions must come first? And in which areas might she have to settle for less.
