Mariah Carey is making a comeback from several years being a bit on the edge of the music industry, even though some of her music is way up there with Elvis Presley, in fact, outdid him by having 18 #1'S; she's second only to the Beatles with 20 # 1's. One of her singles sold 140 million copies.

There is a discrepancy in her birth year also according to NNDB she was born in 1969, not 1970. Her personal number is 37/1 which indicates someone who is very family oriented. Also, her natal Moon is in Cancer. Even though she didn't spend much time with her Black-venezuelan father, an aeronautical engineer, she dedicated her last album E=mc2 to his memory.

She does have Venus strongly placed in her chart. Additionally, her mother was an opera singer and so, naturally, Mariah received a lot of training growing up.

I wanted to speak a little about her psychiatric instability. Now, if you look at her chart, you will see that Mercury is placed in the sign of Pisces (sidereal) and this is Mercury's debilitated position. Now at the time of her "breakdown" in 2001, she was in a 17 year Mercury period (1990-2007).

It was in July of that year that she was rushed to Northern Westchester Hospital Center in Mount Kisco in Connecticut where she spent a few days. Now, not only was she suffering from mental illness (bi-polar disorder), but also exhaustion due to her well known workaholic ways and lack of sleep, as well as by difficulties with her romantic partner of the time, Mexican singer Luis Miguel.

She has a modified kalaparusha Yoga with all of the planets, except Mars hemmed in between the nodes. Also, there is a bit of "hype" about these rumors. One was that she did a strip tease on MTV, which was nothing more than a playful incident.

She mentioned in entertainment News that she thinks of herself as "eternally 12". Also, she was married to an extremely controlling Sony/columbia Records Executive, Tommy Mollota who was 20 yrs her senior. Tommy's personal number is 35/8. That is why the marriage was ill-fated, since a "1" and an "8" are incompatible; can't have two bosses under one roof.

If we were to accept the 1970 birth date, there would be no evidence of psychiatric instability, astrologically. Another point is that with the 1969 birth date, the Moon is within a few degrees of the ascendant and this is a usual indication of being beloved by the Public, whereas the 1970 birth date gives a Sagittarian moon with very little reflection of the details of her life. What do you think?
