There are several methods for assessing a person’s physical appearance, and in my opinion the simplest and at the same time the best method is exactly the topic of this text “Astrology and physical appearance”. The following are seventeen illustrative examples of how to see the appearance (face) based on the horoscope.
Astrology and a person’s physical appearance
In order to be able to practice this method it is necessary to use any sidereal astrology. My recommendation is Jyotish.
When it comes to a person’s physical appearance, the most important is the ascendant, the lord of the ascendant, and the planets aspecting the ascendant.
The influence of male planets on the ascendant gives a more masculine and rough appearance, while the influence of female planets emphasizes femininity and elegance.
Similarity in physical appearance and astrology
Similarity between Denzel Washington and Kylian Mbappe is incredible, primarily in proportions. It is very interesting that both have the same ascendant (Virgo), and even their degree of ascendant is the same (within one degree of difference). Both have the Sun in Sagittarius in the fourth house, in kendras (90 degrees) with the ascendant. For Mbappe, Mars is on the ascendent, and for Washington it aspects the ascendant from the sixth house.
Here in both cases we have a Mercury sign: Zoe Kravitz is a Virgo and Lisa Bonet is a Gemini. Also both have Mars and Saturn in kendras to ascedent, as well as a noticeable influence from Venus.
In all three examples (William Blake, Doris Duke, Brooke Shields) they have Mars on the ascendant and Saturn in the seventh house. Furthermore, the Sun and Jupiter are associated with the ascendant. With this combination, a wider facial structure, a wider forehead, thinner lips, and a special distance between the eyebrows are obvious.
Malefic planets (Mars, Sun, Saturn) give a sharper and more robust appearance, a strong construction. Benefics (Moon, Venus, Mercury, Jupiter) give a more attractive appearance, gentler features in appearance and approachability.
In this case with Bella Hadid and Jennifer Lawrence, the Moon and Venus are the two planets that have the strongest influence on the ascendant. Both emphasize femininity and style. With Hadid, the Moon and Venus are on the ascendant, and with Lawrence, the Moon from Taurus (Venus’s sign) aspects the ascendant.
Jessica Chastain and Bruce Dallas Howard have the Moon and Jupiter conjunct the Ascendant, while their ascendant lord is connected with Saturn. The direct aspect of Saturn on Bruce Howard’s ascendant gives a slightly wider face than that of Jessica Chastain.
In case of Zooey Deschanel and Katy Perry, there is a direct influence of multiple planets on the ascendant. The Moon and Mercury give charm and softness, and Saturn and the Sun bring a bit harsher features of the face.
In these examples, Meryl Streep and Jennifer Ehl, the most important influence on the ascendant is the Moon and Jupiter, which gives approachability and charisma to the appearance, as well as to the facial features. Femininity is also very pronounced.
It’s hard to believe that Chad Smith and Will Farrell aren’t twins, or at least closely related. They are not. However, they both have the ascendant lord in the twelfth house, and a great similarity because influences of same planets: Sun, Venus, Jupiter and Mars – strongly connected to their ascendants.
Resume
