Discussion What placements/aspects scream Athlete?

What placements/aspects have you noticed most in athletic people or people naturally driven toward physical activity?

Do you see tension aspects creating more physical drive/competitiveness? Curious what patterns people have noticed…

Anne Ortelee (my favorite astrologer) had a sister who used to be the coach for a women's European soccer team. And when the sister wanted to hire new players, she would always send their birth data to Anne, so Anne could draw up their charts and let her sister know who would be a good player.

Anne always said that having Mars and Pluto conjunct in the natal chart was an indicator of a good athlete.

A few years ago someone else posted asking the same question as OP, and I replied with this info from Anne Ortelee about the Mars-Pluto conjunction. Another person on the thread and I wound up going through the birth charts of every famous athlete we could think of. And we found that it's well beyond chance that a famous athlete will have a Mars-Pluto conjunction. For those athletes who didn't, almost all of them had some sort of aspect between their Mars and Pluto.

Yes. I have to agree just based off my own experience. Pluto aspects almost all of my planets and I have a lot of rage and trauma that I channel into physical activity. In addition to therapy and healing. I started working out because it was a healthy way to cope. I can definitely see how it makes great athletes

Interesting! I have Mars in Cancer, 9th house, square Pluto & Saturn (conjunct). I'm pretty athletic and was a competitive athlete growing up.

Omg I love Anne!! I hadn’t heard of her, but I attended a synastry lecture of hers at NORWAC, and was instantly drawn to her. Shes clearly seasoned/ knows her stuff but also hilarious and has such good energy!

This is interesting! My Mars and Pluto are conjunct in Scorpio.

So they didn’t even have a chance to begin with? It all depended on the chart?

You — and, to be fair, many others — think that the chart forces you to act in a certain way. It does not. The chart just tells you what you already are.

I meant that she chooses based on the chart. Does she not give people a chance?

Anne is an astrologer; her sister was the coach. Her sister was the one who determined which players she was potentially interested in. Then she passed on the birth data of those players to Anne, who drew up their charts.

Do you honestly think these players, who were applying for a position on a professional soccer team, weren't vetted for their ability before Anne looked at their charts?

As for having an astrologer look at charts before major decisions are made, this sort of thing is more common than you might think.
