Victoria Beckham is the only member of the Spice Girls who hasn't had a number one hit as a solo artist. Her "career" as Mrs. David Beckham makes her the most famous and photographed of the group, though. Victoria is an Aries, a highly independent sign that often achieves success without much external support, but she appears to be an exception. Born April 17, 1974 at 6 am in Hertfordshire, England, she has Mars -- Aries' key or ruling planet -- in the Twin sign of Gemini, which helps her work in tandem with others. She and her soccer-star-cum-male-model husband are one of the world's most chic couples, a perfectly fashionable pair in London, Madrid or LA. Victoria's Mars is conjunct planetary heavyweight Saturn, indicating that she might not be quite the spoiled princess some take her to be. Posh, her Spice Girls nickname, was raised in a wealthy family and moves in the world's most elite circles. She's known as a big spender, but is also the mother of three children. While I'm sure she has help at home, a Mars-Saturn conjunction in her chart shows that she's sharper, harder working, and more serious than the pop press would have us believe.

The luxury life of Victoria "Posh" Beckham shows up in her luscious conjunction of astrology's two easiest planets: Venus and Jupiter. The union of the planet of love, beauty and pleasure with that of expansion in dream-like Pisces makes for an opulent life. Nebulous Neptune forming a right-angle square to the pair adds another layer of illusion to Victoria's story. At the negative extreme, she could be living in a fantasy world in which image is everything. From a positive perspective, though, creativity and compassion can be pillars of her life. It's likely that her reality is a mix of both. While a lifetime of indulging the senses fits the Venus-Jupiter-Neptune story quite well, the potential for further spiritual development (between aloe body scrubs and couture shopping sprees) is also strong. Still, Victoria may well be a sharper thinker than we know. Her Mercury, the planet of intellect, is narrowly focused in Aries by an opposition to penetrating Pluto. She also has the Moon in mentally strong Aquarius, so we shouldn't take Posh lightly. Behind the public perception of prettiness and piles of cash is a bright woman whose most creative days are still to come.
