Celebrity Focus 2: Jolie's Second Marriage
AI translated from the original Chinese.
Today let's talk about Jolie's second marriage, to Billy Bob Thornton, "Thornton" for short below.
Thornton was Jolie's second marriage, but Jolie was the fifth of Thornton's six marriages. This marriage lasted just 3 years (2000–2003).
How does Thornton show up in Jolie's chart? Let's see!
Below is Jolie's original chart:
In 2000 Jolie married Thornton. Let's bring Thornton's 1955 birth-year data into Jolie's marriage chart:
Thornton's main star 天相 (Tian Xiang)
- 天相 in 巳 carries 2 化忌 of its own.
- For 天相 in 巳, both Jolie's stem and Thornton's stem are 辛. 辛 makes 文昌 (Wen Chang) become 化忌, turning the 巳 Palace's 2 化忌 into 4.
- 文昌 in 巳 can be read as arguments and disputes in daily life. A 文昌 weighed down with 化忌 naturally means that in Jolie's life, Thornton brought many irreconcilable everyday disputes.
According to reports, the divorce stemmed from one of Jolie's film scripts having too many intimate scenes with the male lead. Thornton had many complaints about Jolie's script, which became the trigger for their divorce.
In terms of the stars, 天相 is good at harmonizing, but 文昌 化忌 turns 天相's harmonizing ability into nitpicking over everyday trifles. Coincidentally, 文昌 can be read as a script, which echoes exactly how Thornton's dissatisfaction with a script led to their parting.
Strictly speaking, Thornton in the original chart carries 左輔 (Zuo Fu) and 右弼 (You Bi), so naturally he doted on Jolie in every way, but the power of 文昌 化忌 turned his care for Jolie into protectiveness, even possessiveness. With quarrels that couldn't be resolved, divorce was all but inevitable.
How Thornton shows up in Jolie's 紅鸞 (Hong Luan) and 天喜 (Tian Xi)
- 天喜 in 午, stem 壬: 武曲 (Wu Qu) 化忌 strikes Thornton's 天相.
- 紅鸞 in 子, stem 戊: 天機 (Tian Ji) 化忌 in 寅, activating the 火陰 pattern and the "people leave, money scatters" pattern.
- Thornton's 擎羊 (Qing Yang) is in 辰 and his 陀羅 (Tuo Luo) in 寅. 擎羊 strikes 紅鸞 and 陀羅 strikes 天喜. When the marriage stars are struck by 擎羊 and 陀羅, it generally speaks of a complete break.
So although Thornton and Jolie loved each other passionately, their inability to reconcile their views on everyday matters was the main reason for their divorce.
