Scott Wolf

On Party of Five, which ran on Fox from 1994 to 2000, Scott Wolf played Bailey Salinger, the second-oldest of five siblings struggling to hold their family together after their parents are killed by a drunk driver. Bailey was the responsible one who cracked under pressure, eventually developing a drinking problem of his own, and the role made Wolf a teen idol.

He was born on June 4, 1968, in Boston, Massachusetts, at 3:20 in the afternoon, a time from his birth record, and grew up in West Orange, New Jersey. His Sun is in Gemini, with Venus and Mars also in Gemini. Gemini is the sign of brothers and sisters, quick talk and youthful energy, and it fits an actor who became famous playing a sibling, with a boyish face that kept him playing young men well into his thirties.

The Sun and Venus fall in his eighth house, traditionally tied to loss, crisis and transformation. On Party of Five, those themes were the whole premise: grief, family emergencies and growing up too fast. The show was known for tackling difficult subjects, including cancer, alcoholism and abuse, with an emotional seriousness unusual for television aimed at young viewers.

Libra is his rising sign, which gives a likable, easygoing and diplomatic presence. Wolf's screen persona has generally been earnest and warm rather than edgy.

He studied finance at George Washington University before deciding to act. Mars in Gemini and Mercury, just inside Cancer, sit in the ninth house of higher learning and wider horizons. After Party of Five he appeared in films including White Squall and Go, and he continued to work steadily in television, on Everwood, the science fiction series V, the medical drama The Night Shift and, more recently, as Carson Drew in Nancy Drew.

His Moon is in Virgo in the eleventh house, joined by Pluto in Virgo and Jupiter at the end of Leo. A Virgo Moon is modest, careful and attentive to detail, and in the eleventh house of friendships and community it suggests someone who finds emotional grounding in a steady circle of friends. Wolf has remained close to his former Party of Five castmates, and the cast has reunited publicly several times.

Saturn in Aries falls in his seventh house of marriage and partnership. Saturn there is associated with commitment taken seriously and sometimes arriving later in life. In 2004 he married Kelley Limp, whom he met after she appeared on MTV's The Real World, and they have three children. He has said that family became the center of his life, and he has chosen roles partly to stay close to home.

The Gemini Sun made him the eternal sibling on screen, and the Saturn in the house of partnership gave him a lasting family of his own.
