On the surface, Heather Locklear seems like a perfect Libra. Beautiful and blond, this Southern California native is much more complex than she looks. With Venus, Libra's ruling planet, between wild Uranus and intense Pluto in her chart, there's another side to this star that's yet to be seen.
Heather Locklear is one of television's most enduring hotties. She first appeared on 'CHiPs' as a teenager in 1980 and became famous as a regular in 'Dynasty' in 1981 while also appearing in 'T.J. Hooker.' Her roles in 'Melrose Place' and 'Spin City' cemented her status as a TV icon. Heather was born September 25, 1961 in Los Angeles, with her Sun in Libra. This sign, ruled by Venus -- the goddess of beauty -- reflects Heather's good looks and seductive on-screen personality. But she falls outside the dumb blond stereotype by playing sharp women with strong minds of their own. Mercury -- the planet of intelligence and communication -- is conjunct assertive Mars in her chart. The union of these makes for fast thinking and snappy dialogue. Although their placement in Libra softens the verbal edge common to many with this conjunction, it's a reminder that what's going on in Heather's head is every bit as interesting as how she looks from the outside. Libra often has strategic skills, and the mental power of Heather's Mercury-Mars connection shows that she might have been as successful in law or business as she has been as an actress.
Heather's Moon is in the dynamic fire sign of Aries, which adds a dash of spontaneity and plenty of punch to her personality. Aries is opposite Libra, in fact, which sometimes indicates a conflict between the need to compromise (Libra) and the urge to act independently (Aries). The power of her Aries Moon is another reason why she's been successful playing strong women. The ability to combine Libran grace with Aries self-interest gives Heather a combination of toughness and tenderness that makes for very interesting characters.
Libra is also a sign of partnership, with its symbol, the Scales, representing its desire for balance. Twice-married to rock stars (Tommy Lee and Richie Sambora), Heather seems to have a taste for unconventional partners. That's because her Venus -- the principle of taste and attraction -- sits between deep, dark Pluto and electric, eccentric Uranus. Although she's been able to maintain relatively long-term relationships, an attraction to rebellious rockers comes naturally. Tommy definitely fits the out-of-control profile of Uranus and Pluto, but Heather's relationship with "nice guy" Richie also makes sense in her chart. After the breakup of their marriage, the sudden appearance of Richie with new love interest Denise Richards, a close friend of Heather's, was a surprising (Uranus) betrayal (Pluto). On another level, this may signal a career shift for Heather that leads to more complex parts. While the fame and money of her professional success thus far has been considerable, her inner artist (Venus) may now be ready for juicier roles that correspond more closely to the intense person she really is.
