All about Stevie Wonder
Star sign: Taurus

A Taurus Sun shone down on Stevie Wonder's birth. This comes as no surprise to those who have followed his career. With the dogged determination of the Bull, Stevie has turned what could have been insurmountable obstacles into favourable opportunities. Blind since birth and unable to spend much time outdoors, Stevie focused his energy at an early age on mastering musical instruments. With a Taurean down-to-earth outlook, he survived a near-fatal car crash and used it to bolster his zest for life.

Stevie Wonder's Mercury, the Planet of Communication, also lies in Taurus. This man won't listen if you say he's wrong - he'll just keep going until he proves he's right. He'll always be prepared, too. When he split from Motown Records early in his career because he didn't like how they portrayed his talent, Stevie wasted no time in starting his own label and turning his career into a success on his terms.

With Venus in fiery Aries, Wonder may throw himself into romance without bothering to find out if he's falling in love with the person - or whether he's simply fallen for the idea of love itself. When the initial excitement wears off, he may find that his new amour isn't as fantastic as he first thought. Still, he's likely to shower that special someone with elaborate gifts and expects to be given the same treatment in return.

Passionate Mars is in staid Virgo in Wonder's chart, which means he's a man who thinks big and acts bigger. Virgos aren't likely to take a break from their important work, and Stevie is no exception. When he's not recording albums or writing new pieces, his work for causes and charities takes him all over the globe. With four Cardinal, three Fixed and three Mutable Planets, Stevie's chart is well balanced. Not only does he demonstrate that he knows how to start a project, he also has the follow-through that's necessary for succeeding in the long haul. With enough Earth Signs to keep him grounded, this star can let himself soar without fear of flying too high.
