The book's character Edward was born June 20, 1901 and true to his supernatural nature retains a youthful appearance. The Sun was in Gemini when he was "born," serving him well as he plays the dual role of young man and ageless vampire. Neptune, the planet of dreams, illusion and fantasy was also conjunct the Sun, adding an aura of mystery and magic that certainly fits Edward's personality. He even has Mars in a square to unconventional Uranus, which can represent special physical powers. Robert Pattison, though, is a real person, the actor playing Edward in ''Twilight'. He's not a vampiric centenarian, but a regular guy born with his Sun in the down-to-earth sign of Taurus on May 13, 1986. Robert's personality is a million miles away from his role as Edward since his chart is infinitely more real than magical. Sure, he's an actor starring in a major movie, but with his Sun in Taurus and Mars in fellow Earth sign Capricorn, he's not about to slip off into another dimension any time soon. Robert is also rooted with the Moon in Cancer, a sign of tradition, security and safety. Still, he can appreciate the weird and strange with Venus, the planet of taste, in curious Gemini opposed to Uranus.
Let's hope that Kristen and Robert are terrific actors because the chemistry between their two charts is far from ideal. Their Suns don't connect and their Moons clash. One positive alignment shows Robert's Venus of attraction favorably aspecting Kristen's Mars of passion. That might be good for a date or two, but a small dash of lust doesn't make for a lifelong romance. Of course, in Edward's world a lifetime (he's well over 100 and still going strong) may be too long for any relationship to last. But all Kristen and Robert have to do to play their parts is keep the illusion alive for the duration of the movie.
