Musical Success Timing with Magi Astrology

The music world, and any other world, is filled to the brim with examples where success is revealed by astrological timing. Natural abilities and skills are birthed to the greater world when the transiting planets work in support of the natal chart. In this section we will take a look as some of these events.

Leona Lewis

If you have had a look at the “singers” section of this website,  you will know about how we can discern singing ability in a natal chart. In Leona Lewis chart this ability hits us right up front.
British songstress Leona Lewis has a remarkable conjunction of the Sun, Mercury, Venus and Pallas - all packed in within a one-degree orb. In addition, Jupiter is sextile the Sun, Mercury and Venus. This gives a woman (Sun) with an expansive (Jupiter) beautiful (Venus) and technically skilled (Pallas) voice (Mercury).
On the day that she won the X Factor competition, transiting Mercury and Uranus were in square aspect, completing a most powerful structure against her natal Mercury synchronization. Transiting Uranus was also contraparallel her natal Mercury. And overnight her voice (Mercury) attained international (Uranus) fame (Uranus).

Jonathan Antoine

When 17-year-old Jonathan Antoine walked onto the Britain’s Got Talent stage, Simon Cowell was recorded saying “just when you think things couldn’t get any worse…”  If Simon had known about Magi Astrology he’s unlikely to ever have said that, as Jonathan’s performance was entirely predictable by the stars.
Jonathan has a grouping between Neptune, Mercury, Uranus, Venus and Chiron in the geocentric longitudes. It is too wide to be one synch, so it is instead two synchs, with Venus, Uranus, Mercury and Neptune forming the “lower” synch and Mercury, Uranus, Venus and Chiron forming the “upper” synch. Beautiful (Venus) and exciting (Uranus) and creative (Neptune) voice (Mercury. And, career (Chiron) and money (Venus) from a beautiful (Venus) and famous (Uranus) voice (Mercury).
Jonathan and his singing partner Charlotte came second in the final, which was held on May 12, 2012. The day after, it was confirmed that Simon Cowell was negotiating a recording contract with the pair. To the left are the pertinent transiting planets of May 13 as they interact with Jonathan’s singing grouping.
Note that a rather exact grand trine is formed as transiting Jupiter comes into aspect with Jonathan's natal Chiron and his Mercury, Uranus, and Neptune grouping. Transiting Jupiter is at 23:09 degrees. He is having a Cinderella (Jupiter- Chiron) experience and Super Fame (Jupiter - Uranus) due to his beautiful (Venus) exciting (Uranus) and creative (Neptune) voice (Mercury). Saturn’s presence indicate that there may have been some restrictions in the contract negotiations.

Susan Boyle

In Susan Boyle’s case there are a variety of things going on during that night when she famously dropped Cowell’s and everybody else’s jaw.
In the heliocentric realm, Boyle has a synchronization between Mercury (voice) Neptune (creative) and Juno. Juno has to do with fleeting charisma and ambition. On the night that she sang, Jupiter was conjunct Juno and tapping into both Mercury and Neptune. This meant the result of her ambition was anything but fleeting.
Because in an overlapping synchronization, which also uses Juno and Neptune, but where Mercury is replaced by the Earth, tells us this is a successful (Jupiter) and lasting (Neptune) creative (Neptune) woman (Earth) who’s just got her shot at fame (Juno).
Other factors in the Susan Boyle saga include: transiting Jupiter closely contra-parallel her Uranus in the declinations and also in the heliocentric latitudes. This is a double-whammy of the super fame energy. Also in the helio latitudes, we have transiting Pluto being parallel Chiron and contra-parallel Mercury. This is a Cinderella transit (Pluto-Chiron) for a singer (Mercury). Pluto rules beginnings and endings, and for Susan Boyle, this was truly the beginning (Pluto) of her career (Chiron) as a singer (Mercury).

Here we look at success revealed by astrological timing. Natural skills are birthed to the greater world when the transiting planets support the natal chart.

There are two overlapping synchs in the image above. Beautiful (Venus) and exciting (Uranus) and creative (Neptune) voice (Mercury. And, career (Chiron) and money (Venus) from a beautiful (Venus) and famous (Uranus) voice (Mercury).
Jonathan and his singing partner Charlotte came second in the final, which was held on May 12, 2012. The day after, it was confirmed that Cowell was negotiating a recording contract with them. Above we see the pertinent transiting planets of May 13 interact with Jonathan’s singing grouping.
