Update on Barry Humphries and Asteroid Edna

Dame Edna once said that she would not be suprised if they adored her on Mars. In 2000 she became successful in the States and it must have seemed she had conquered the world.

So when I found the asteroid Edna – her namesake-I though it was fitting. A personal name asteroid can have significance in a chart especally if it conjuncts any of he personal planets. It’s as if the personal story is written in the stars. Edna is up there too- a self-appointed megastar.

Asteroid Edna (455) was discovered in California in 1899 so that links Barry Humphries to the ‘mauve’ he so adored and whose literature and artwork he collected. Asteroid Edna orbits between Mars and Jupiter and these two planets rarely hold back except when in retrograde.

We are approaching the solar return of Barry Humphries (17/2/1934) but in fact it has already passed- on the 15th February when the Sun is at 27° of Aquarius where it was when he was born. And where is asteroid Edna? Edna sits currently at 10° of Aries conjunct Venus which is about to go retrograde in a week’s time. Is there a message from beyond here? I think there’s a kind of Venus dance going on. The emphasis is on Love, the caring and sharing kind as Dame Edna often said was her unique gift to the world. It was said that Dame Edna has the extraordinary ability to make ordinary people feel special and special people feel ordinary.

Venus is also the arts and entertainment, showing off with outrageous clothes and jewellery- even bling- the Sydney Opera House dress, the Breakfast Dress, the Edvard Munch ‘Scream’ dress which he wore when he heard that the ‘Scream’ was Barbra Streisand's favourite painting. The character of Edna was based on a lady mayoress in Melbourne who was a patron of the arts.

Edna and Venus in Aries here reminds me of the time when Dame Edna appeared on TV in a ‘spunky punky’ outfit she claimed was designed by Zandra Rhodes. This was very Venus in Aries, unapologetic, fast-moving and not at all the same as when she is in Pisces. Dame Edna could not be outwitted ever- many tried like Tracy Emin and Boris Johnson, but were scorched by the Dame who was always one step ahead.

Many of those witticisms have now become legendary- check Dame Edna with K.D. Lang, with Lenny Henry, with Judi Dench and with Tom Jones- all on 'You Tube'.

This degree also happens to be the point where Humprhies had his Part of Fortune at 5° of Aries. And Edna certainly made him a lot of money. It is also the point where there is a Partial Solar Eclipse on March 29th at 8° .

Barry Humphries natal chart has Venus at 8° of Aquarius so that sextiles this Venus conjunct asteroid Edna radiating good vibes. And that is how I’d like to remember him. One of his last shows was called ‘Eat, Pray, Laugh’. So laughing and loving could be equated.

He died in April of 2023- almost two years ago and there has never been a more vibrant, a sharper wit than Mr Humphries who said in his own self written obituary, that of the ultimate satirist, that Humphries had become merely a footnote in Dame Edna’s “more spectacular career”.
