By request, we review for a fan the birth chart of her favorite musician, Bono (Paul Hewsen), best known as the lead vocalist of the band, U2. Before beginning Bono’s birth chart interpretation, it was astounding to see such a cluster of conjunctions in his chart. Scroll down to Bono’s below to see the cobweb of all celebrity cobwebs in the center of his chart. What does it all mean?

Bono’s chart begins with Mars in Pisces in the Second House. A vast amount of self-sacrifice accompanies this placement. We know Bono is a natural artist. His head is often in the clouds. He’s a bit temperamental, but he’s a touchy-feely type of person and an enthusiastic foodie. He is also a very devoted and loving person who loves to gift extraordinary things.

In the Third House we find three planets in Taurus, beginning with Venus. Bono loves to have stimulating conversations, and hates to waste his time on superficial ones. He has a sense of justice and is not afraid to fight battles others might consider unconquerable. He feels compelled to expose frauds for what they are. With Venus trine Pluto, he has the ability to be a teacher to the public by touching on issues where others fear to tread. He adores personal and emotionally- moving relationships and friendships.

Next in the Third House in Taurus is Mercury. Bono is not a pretentious person. He is open to learning new things, loves to talk, and thrives on mental stimulation. He’s a great problem solver, but can’t seem to solve the bible code. Ironically, with Mercury trine Saturn, he is a master at communicating religious and theoretical philosophies to the masses. This is, additionally, likely the topic of many heated debates between Bono and others. He prefers to deal with issues we face here and now. Bono is also a master at urging others to break cyclical negative routines and traditions. This placement again suggests a bit of a temper. 

Last in the Third House in Taurus is the Sun. Where some people have ideas to transform the world or re-invent it, Bono since birth has had a different approach. He observes, listens, waits for a signal and then acts upon it. Not afraid of hard work, Bono will burn the midnight oil for the sake of accomplishing something important. Those with this Sun placement usually have siblings who play a very significant role in their lives. He is a family man, and divorce is not in his stars-- not from his wife nor from his band. Bono can be a “bad boy” from time to time, but he always realizes the negative effects of such behaviors in the long run.

Moving into the Seventh House, we find Uranus in Leo. Finally, a placement indicating expression through singing! Additionally, Bono’s marriage is different from the average Joe’s. He has a sense of independence in his marriage that not many others have. He does love his wife and children and feels genuinely connected and at home with them.

Next, we find Pluto retrograde in Virgo in the Seventh House. Bono is touchy when it comes to condemnation--especially pertaining to his appearance. If he has not yet had a facelift, at some point he will. He’s probably used Rogaine or the equivalent for years. 

In the Eighth House, we find the Moon in Scorpio, which tells us Bono is full of passion. He has no problem expressing emotions, but he also has a touch of a secretive side. Combine that with his overflowing passion and it is likely he’s had a few, hot love affairs. He is a born charmer. His best work takes place in a group environment. He is an amazing debater and doesn’t mind provoking wars of words. With the Moon sextile Jupiter, he was born to be widely popular. He cherishes heirlooms and history. He has a vision for the spiritual ideal and likely has had personal psychic experiences--perhaps in the form of dreams. Speaking of dreams, with the Moon sextile Pluto, he is devoted to implementing his spiritual ideals in order to better the lives of others. 

Also in Scorpio is Neptune retrograde in the Ninth House. Bono has strong visions of a more unified society. With Jupiter sextile Neptune, he is seen, whether he likes it or not, as somewhat of a cleric to society. 

Jupiter retrograde in Capricorn in the Twelfth House makes for an interesting career placement for Bono. His profession is of utmost importance to Bono, as his main objective is to use his career as a tool to guide others. Because Jupiter is trine Pluto, Bono was born to guide the masses--not just the national public, but also the international. 

The final planet in Bono’s chart is Saturn retrograde in Capricorn. This placement is all about self-sacrifice in terms of helping others. He is the giver of all givers and encourages those who can to do the same. 

That sums up Bono and his piece on Earth.
