I am adamant about the 10th house and fame. I challenge anyone to show me a verified chart of someone famous or infamous with no 10th house connections.
Claire19 said:but again without 10th planets and or node, there will be no fame.
However with no planets in the 10th, fame is highly unlikely.
I still stand by the premise that there absolutely has to be at least one planet in the 10th for a prominent and public life. To rise to a position of authority or sway....
Fame and glory belong to the 10th house and we must have planets there, aspects to its ruler for any prominence
For a start Bill Clinton has Saturn in the 10th, classic for politics.
I would suggest that planets conjunct the north node make the north node stronger rather. Helps to head the native in the direction for this lifetime.
The Leo stellium does show kingship and fame of a sort.
I know his chart backwards as it is mine also with differences....of course.....

Ray Austin said:I do agree that tenth house connections will play a role in the charts of some people; however clearly those without tenth house planets can become renown.
I am adamant about this.I'm beginning to think you're a representative of some sort sponsoring the tenth house. just kidding.
Whether nodes give off light or not they are extremely influential and I would suggest you read up on them.No, he doesn't.
Cancer is the 10th Sign and the MC (5° Cancer).
Saturn is in Leo, the 11th Sign (at 2° Leo).
Modern astrologers like Robert Pelletier, Robert Hand, Noel Tyl and about 500 others would say Saturn is so close to the 11th House Cusp that Saturn no longer has any influence or power in the 10th House; that Saturn's influence spills over into the 11th House (which is something they borrow from traditional astrology).
Traditional astrologers using Whole Sign would see Saturn in the 11th, and using other House Systems would read Saturn into the 11th since it is within 5° of the 11th House.
You modern astrologers need to get your stories straight and make up your minds.
The Nodes are Chart Points, and specifically they are empty points in space and when the Moon is there and eclipse occurs. They have no energy; give off no light, and emanate no rays, so that is a rather absurd view.
Prince Henry has the South Node in his 10th House, of course changing the House System will change that.
Clinton has no stellium, and Leo stelliums are not signs of "kingship" or fame.
Yes, of course, there's always a difference.
I see we're in retreat mode.
Now instead of Planets in the 10th, it's 10th House connections. So what exactly are 10th House connections? Aspects? Are we looking at Ptolemaic aspects or would that include Asteroid Vomit making a duohexadsequisemibiquintilesillyquadrate to the MC?
That would be easy: Kenneth Brannagh. He has no Planets in the 10th House (and that means none of the Outers), and there are no Nodes in the 10th House and no Plants aspect the MC.
Bob Geldof would be another (he's also Irish like Brannagh).
I could list a few dozen more if you want.
Statistically, 90% of charts will have a Planet in the 10th House, or a Planet in aspect to the MC.
That proves nothing and you're right, there are 1000s of famous people with no Planets in the 10th House (regardless of House System used).
Traditional astrology has methods that not only determine fame (much more accurately and consistently), bu determines the level of fame, what kind of fame, how the fame is achieved, how long the fame lasts (until someone is relegated to total obscurity), and when they will achieve fame (and when they will lose it if that is the case).
Modern astrology is a roll-of-the-dice. Keep telling people with Planets in the 10th House they'll be famous and maybe out of 10,000 charts they'll get one right. Heck, even a broken clock is right twice a day.
There are 308 Million people in the US, but only 315,000 earn more than $1 Million per year, and about half of those 315,000 are entertainers or in the entertainment industry or athletes.
That's just over 0.1% so that should tell people that neither fame nor wealth is easy to achieve regardless of how many Planets are in the 10th or whatever "connections" might exist.
Marlon Brando and Steve McQueen didn't have any planets in 10. They count as famous?
I have no idea what you mean by 'significant' planets contacting the MC, though. That kind of skews it. What's the difference between significant and insignificant planets?
Obviously if you're his astro-twin as I'm assuming, saying Leo stelliums indicate kingship and fame is a bit unaccurate, isn't it? Are you a "king" and "famous"? Maybe I'm a little anal, but in my own practice I'd appreciate a method with at least 85% accuracy or more; which generalizations like "leo stelliums indicate kingship and fame" don't fall into.dont know what chart you are using for Clinton but he has two stelliums and Mercury and Saturn are in the 10th!!!!!!... . I am his twin as it happens and you cant tell me we dont have any stellliums. I have been practising astrology for 30 years, mate.
And will you grant the "naysayers" the same generous demand? If you aren't even willing to back what you're saying up but expect others to, I don't see you having very much support in your argument which is a shame for a worthy debate.Load some charts of famous people with no significant planets in the 10th or connections to the 10th ruler. Globally known and not just in the US for instance.....I want to see them....
The 10th is our public image and reputation and not necessarily fame or glory.......It deals with our issues with our goals, how we handle authority including parenting and it can indicate our landlords, bosses etc. OUr vocation and career which may not be at all prominent or in the limelight.The 10th house is a very sharp double edged sword. Does it bring fame, sure mostly, though it can simply be famous around neighborhood instead of world fame, but it also brings many problems with it. 10th is angular, a planet there is a visible planet so to speak.
Usually, fame indicators are sun, moon, jupiter and venus. How would you feel having this planets out there for all to see? If you crave fame then woohoo, if not however, with personal planets there you'd run to somewhere and hide. Not to mention, bad publicity is still publicity. What I mean by this is when things go nasty you may get the blame for it especially things related to career which is pretty much what this house is about. If you do your job right and things go well, you get a grand applause moment, do a mistake and the booing is just as loud.
I can back up what I am saying with Clinton for instance and I have in former posts?????...I dont know why you feel that he has no pointers for public life for instance.Obviously if you're his astro-twin as I'm assuming, saying Leo stelliums indicate kingship and fame is a bit unaccurate, isn't it? Are you a "king" and "famous"?

I never said that.I can back up what I am saying with Clinton for instance and I have in former posts?????...I dont know why you feel that he has no pointers for public life for instance.
Claire .. I've already done that.If you can post charts of famous people with no 10th house influences I would be glad to see them as I have said. I dont think you can.
Percy Bysse Shelley, Mick Jagger, Madonna, Barack Obama....there are a whole lot of folks who don't have tenth house planets who ended up famous nonetheless, which is all we've been trying to say.
Yes, of course it's great to have a fortified 10th house, it's more likely that you'll have a great reputation. I'm sure many of us could agree there was a time when reputation mattered; now if anything an ill-reputation seems to give more publicity and success.Yes, not only the planets tenth house.
It is true that is the most common aspect of fame, specially the major planets in the 10th house could bring a "good name".
I don't think that's universally true, no--there are people made famous by others efforts. Look up Antoine Dodson, to know what I mean. Someone made a song out of an appearance on the news of him complaining about his sister getting attacked. Anyway, someone made a song out of that and he grew rather famous because of it. I do believe in some sense, fame comes to people as well. Of course, not all the time.Also the fame will not arrive if you are not doing anything to be recognized

What I should have said is that there has to be aspects to the MC or MIdheaven for fame or infamy......Not just the 10th house.......and yes there are famous people with no planets in the 10th from what I can gather... .I will investigate those that have been quoted here and bearing in mind we have to rely on what is on the sites for the correct time of birth which may or may not be accurate.I never said that.
Claire .. I've already done that.
