The Bowl chart
occurs when the planets occupy half
of the horoscope wheel. People with a Bowl shaped chart can be
just as stubborn as those with a Bundle. The difference is that
while Bundle people seem self-contained in their own little world, Bowl
folks are very aware of others and frequently try to compel
recognition. In other words, when two thirds of the wheel is
empty, you don't care. When one half is empty, it seems to give
painful recognition that something is missing, that there is an
area of existence from which they are excluded, and the entire
life may be spent trying to fill that void. This is why those with
Bowl horoscopes frequently seem to be on a mission. And they do
have a tendency to get involved in causes.
As with the locomotive
chart, the planet that leads
the others around the wheel gains in strength. You find it the
same way, by putting your finger in the empty space and going counterclockwise.
The first planet you hit is the leader.
Candice Bergen is an example of the 搒omething
is missing?trait of the Bowl. She is probably the only person
in history who had a case of sibling rivalry with a
ventriloquist's dummy (Edgar Bergen was her father and Charlie
Mc Carthy her wooden 搒ibling?. Interestingly enough,
Pisces,
the sign of illusions, was on the cusp (beginning) of her
3rd
house
(brothers and sisters). The 搑im?of the bowl is not
exact. Mercury is at 27 degrees of Aries and Jupiter is widely
opposite at 19 degrees of Libra. But they are both in
Cardinal
Signs, signs of action. She tried dramatic roles and even gave up
acting for a while to become a photographer before she made a hit
with 揗urphy Brown.?Nine planets are on the right side (the
揥estern?side) which means that she has to have other people
involved in order to get anything significant done.
Jupiter
on the
Mid-Heaven gives 搇uck?with the career and is a show business
indicator.
Cheerful Jupiter
may be at the top (her public image and career) but Saturn, planet
of discipline, difficulties and delays is
singleton
since it is the only planet in a water sign. That means it has a
strong effect on her emotions and Saturn is not exactly a
light-hearted influence. Ironically, since Saturn shows where
things tend to go wrong in our lives, the place where we have the
most problems, it is the planet of 揗urphy's Law.?nbsp;
Goldie Hawn
has a bowl chart with
Uranus
and
Mercury
forming the rim. They are in mutable
signs and Uranus is the lead planet. Mutable signs like to keep
things light, and Goldie does comedy roles almost exclusively.
Again, Jupiter is on the Mid-Heaven, the planet of 搇uck?
affecting career. Personally, I think that the reason successful
show business personalities have Jupiter aspecting their
Mid-Heaven (career and public image) is because when you are in
show business, you need all the luck you can get.
Sally Struthers also has the rim of the bowl in Mutable
Signs. Again, the specialty is comedy. Bowl people tend to
get involved with causes. She also was involved with the Christian
Children's Fund.
Woodrow Wilson had the rim in
Cardinal
Signs. He was more concerned with the crisis of World War One.
His cause was making it the 搘ar to end all wars.?Jupiter was
his only planet in a fire sign and Neptune was his only
Mutable
Sign placement. These made him too idealistic and unrealistic.
He couldn't even get the USA into the League of Nations, which
he was responsible for forming. That was partly his own fault.
Wilson had nine planets on the right side of his horoscope meaning
that he had to have other people involved in order to get anything
done. Not only did he try to do this on his own. He tried to do it
against the opposition of Henry Cabot Lodge. As a result, he fell
flat on his face. The moral of the story is: When you have a
right-handed chart, your motto should be 揥hy should I do it
myself? Isn't that why God created other people??o:p>
