Goldie Hawn

On Rowan & Martin's Laugh-In in the late 1960s, Goldie Hawn became famous for forgetting her lines and dissolving into giggles. The bikini-clad dancer with a bubbly laugh was cast as the show's dizzy blonde. Within two years she had won an Academy Award for Best Supporting Actress for Cactus Flower, and the dizzy blonde turned out to be one of the sharpest comic actresses and producers in Hollywood.

She was born at 9:20 a.m. on November 21, 1945, in Washington, D.C., according to her birth certificate, and Sagittarius is rising. Sagittarius is the sign of laughter, optimism and generous high spirits, and as an outward manner it reads as open, cheerful and infectious. Hawn's laugh became her trademark, and decades later it remains one of the most recognizable in film.

Her Moon is in Gemini in the sixth house, the sector of daily work and craft. Gemini Moons are quick, playful and verbal, and in the sixth they find satisfaction in the details of work. Comic timing is a craft, and Hawn trained as a dancer from childhood, worked as a professional dancer, including as a go-go dancer, and understood physical comedy as precisely as choreography.

Her Sun sits at the very end of Scorpio in the eleventh house of groups, causes and long-term goals. Scorpio is deep, determined and private, and the bubbly persona sat on top of a shrewd, strategic mind. In 1980 she produced and starred in Private Benjamin, a film the studios had doubted, and earned a Best Actress nomination; it was a major hit and showed she could carry a film as a producer as well as a star. In the eleventh house, Scorpio's depth also turns toward causes. In 2003 she founded the Hawn Foundation, whose MindUP program teaches mindfulness and social-emotional skills to schoolchildren around the world.

Mars in Leo and Saturn in Cancer both fall in the seventh house, the domain of partnership. Mars there brings passion, and Saturn brings seriousness and staying power. Hawn has been with Kurt Russell since 1983, after first meeting him on a Disney film years earlier, when he was a teenager, and reconnecting on the set of Swing Shift. They have never married and have often joked that it is the secret to lasting so long. Her daughter Kate Hudson and son Oliver Hudson both became actors.

Venus in Scorpio sits in the tenth house of public reputation, giving her public image a warm magnetism. Through the 1980s and 1990s she starred in hits including Overboard, Death Becomes Her and The First Wives Club, then stepped away from acting for fifteen years before returning in 2017 with Snatched.

The giggling dancer on Laugh-In had a Scorpio Sun all along. The Sagittarius rising made people laugh; the Scorpio underneath decided what to do with the attention.
