Those born in this highflying sign sometimes live in dreams of tomorrow that rarely turn into reality. But Lucy Liu's spirited Sun is backed up with the Moon and Venus in earth signs that give substance to her dreams.
Lucy was born in New York on December 2, 1968 to Chinese immigrant parents and is the first Asian-American actress to have established a significant professional foothold in the slippery slopes of Hollywood. An adventurous Sagittarius with a strong urge for freedom, it's no surprise that Lucy has crossed cultural barriers. Uranus, the planet of liberation, is tightly conjunct her karmic Lunar South Node -- a signature of someone who doesn't fit into conventional patterns. And with expansive Jupiter (Sagittarius' ruling planet) next to Uranus, her intuition and indomitable will to walk her own path are evident. While this high-frequency combo and her Sun in fiery Sagittarius make a powerful fuel supply for a long-distance life journey, it takes plenty of hard work to survive in show business. Lucy is well-equipped astrologically as active Mars in gracious Libra opposes hard-nosed Saturn. This is a formidable and discipline-demanding astrological relationship that either indicates a person crushed by challenges or one unafraid to take them on. Fortunately, Lucy's not shied away from the struggle required for success.

Her Sagittarian desires for adventure are solidly rooted by her Moon in earthy Taurus. The planet of emotion and habit in this patient and consistent sign enriches her with common sense that keeps her feet on the ground. Taurus Moon people usually have a good grip on reality and don't allow the opinions of others to shake their foundations. Venus, the planet of love and approval, is in Capricorn: another earth sign that balances ambition with pragmatism. Lucy's Venus is approximately 90-degrees from her Mars, a tense aspect called a square. Mars in gracious Libra is all about accommodation and diplomacy, but Venus in Capricorn aims to come out on top. This contrast can complicate her personal relationships, yet has been richly demonstrated on screen. The will to dominate was a key to her 'Ally McBeal' character Ling Woo and as O-Ren Ishi in 'Kill Bill: Vol. 1.' Her chart suggests that she may not be a dominatrix or martial arts expert, but that she's highly motivated to achieve her goals. A daring Sagittarius Sun backed up with the realism and focus of earth planets can easily produce an unstoppable force like Lucy Liu.
