Mariah Carey
Born on March, 27, 1970 in Huntington, Long Island, New York, Mariah Carey got into music after her graduation. She was just 18 when she started as a back-up singer in 1988. Thereafter, her career spanning some 21 years can be grouped into three phases:
Development phase: In 1989 she met Tommy Mottle and signed up with his Colombia Records. Her debut album “Mariah Carey” hit the market in 1990, followed by “Music Box” in 1993, “Merry Christmas” in 1994, “Daydream” in 1995” Butterfly” in 1997. Her hit song “I still Believe” was released in 1999. In the meantime she married Tommy Mottola in a celebrity wedding in 1993 whom she divorced in 1998.
Transition phase: In 2001 she left Columbia Records to join Virgin Records, a subsidiary of EMI , for a record US $ 100 million contract. But her first album under Virgin Record ” Glitter” was a failure and she fell overnight from her exalted position as a Diva. By this time she was hospitalized with complaints such as exhaustion. Later the rumours floated around her undergoing psychiatric treatment. Consequent to these developments EMI announced the buy-out of the remaining portion of the contract for U S $ 28 million landing a body punch on Mariah Carey. She did not give up; she redoubled her effort to get into the box seat once again.
Rejuvenation phase: In 2005 entire calculus changed. She is back on the top of the chart with her album “Emancipation of Mimi”. The hit song in that chart “We belong together” mesmerized her fans. Later she was nominated for 8 Grammy awards and won 3 of these. In 2006 she signed up with Pepsi for their TV commercials. In 2008 she bypassed the legendary Elvis Presley for the Number 1 spot with her single “Touch my body”. She has been featured in many TV shows and in the recent Obama inauguration. One of her performing photo is shown below:
In her career she has made few statements that are noteworthy and show her inner structure:
Quote 1 It's hard to be someone that people talk about and write about, you know? They don't know me.
Quote 2 I always felt like the rug could be pulled out from under me at anytime. And coming from a racially mixed background, I always felt like I didn't really fit in anywhere.
Quote 3 I hope to be around past the 90's. I don't want to just be categorized as one of this era. My goal is to have a career that stands.
Quote 4 In this world, I call the shots and I think I know best.
You realize that she is talking about fear, anxiety, sense of not belonging, and determination to make it; she also hints at something magical that keep her going and to bounce back from calamities. You got it; it is her birthday of March 27.
Birthday March 27
Every year on March 27, something unusual happens in the Sky. At this time the Sun is traversing the constellation Pisces. The Sun enters the Pisces on March 11 and stays there till April 18. On March 27 it breaks new ground by parking into the constellation Cetus. What happens is half of the Sun’s disk is in Cetus constellation and half of the Sun’s disk is still in the Pisces constellation. This unique process lasts almost 18 hours in that day.
Many celebrities and historical figures share this birthday with Mariah Carey. Some of them are: Actress Gloria Swanson ; Actor Richard Denning; British politician Nick Hawkins ; U S politician Cyrus Vance; British Prime Minister James Callaghan; German Historian Golo Mann; British automobile pioneer Sir Henry Royce and King of France Louis the Seventeen.
Cetus Constellation
Whoever born on this date has two Sun signs: Pisces and Cetus. They receive the cosmics from both these constellations. Pisces is well known as a constellation. Let me say few things about Cetus constellation. The word Cetus comes from Latin, meaning a whale. Legend says that Cetus is a sea monster who is travelling towards Andromeda, the virgin who is chained to the rock to be devoured by Cetus. Therefore, it starts moving from Eridanaus where he usually resides bypassing the Pisces to reach Andromeda. Before Cetus can complete his task, Perseus the hero appears. He has in his hand the Head of Gordon Medusa. Perseus shows this head to Cetus; on seeing Medusa, Cetus is turned into a stone. There the sea monster lies eternally. This constellation has several notable stars: Deneb Kaitos, Menkar , Baton Kaitos, Al Kaf Al Jidhmah, Deneb and Mira.
Cosmics
Both Pisces & Cetus together provide Mariah Carey with dual strength; it is something like twin engine aeroplane; when one engine stops the other starts. These two constellations give Mariah Carey a sense of being evergreen, a feeling of renewal, and lot of cosmic energy related to sex & survival; these constellations make her a person of religious belief; person of wisdom & perseverance; person with a fascinating and lavish life-style. Determination to reach the zenith is her main driving force. She is pushed to work hard and her work is appreciated globally. Millions benefit by listening to her song. Her work contributes to the lively hood of sundry. Mariah Carey has special gift and talent: octave voice and fascinating beauty.
There are negatives as well: she becomes a part of a Cult, a Diva, quite some fan clubs, films about her not to forget the gossip columns. She will have craving for popularity and if she does not get it she can be psychologically affected. She needs care and attention more than average women. Fear, anxiety and sense of not belonging would continue to mar her progress. Moreover, her compulsiveness & moodiness would drive away friends and colleagues. Consequences of any hasty decision would take lot of time to turn around. More than that she lacks vital salt in her system causing physical exhaustion.
