Olivia de Haviland is dead.

Olivia de Havilland comes from the Golden Age of Hollywood, won two oscars, appeared in films like Gone with the Wind, she will be very much missed, as she died in Paris today aged 104.
I must admit that i had a soft spot for her as she is alleged to be the last great actress from the "Golden Age Era.

Interesting Stellium in tenth house including Venus!

Raise a glass to the alleged last great actress of the Golden Age, we will not see her like again!

Hi Monk. It will soon be your birthday and the Lions Gate portal

The Cancer stellium implies a caring personality but from what I read about the rivalry with her sister, Joan Fontaine I think? She was more concerned with 10th house society status.

Note her 3rd house of siblings, ruled by mars on ascendent and exactly square mercury on the midheaven.

I didn’t have time to take more than a quick glance at the chart but I see what you mean now, and Mars in the 12th of hidden enemies.

They were born great actresses. Gone With The Wind is one of my favourite movies and Olivia de Haviland was excellent in it. Who can forget Joan Fontaine in Rebecca as well.

Is eight house to do with longevity, isn't it?

Then her eight house ruler is mars; sextile saturn- planet of old age. I think this aspect can talk about her longevity.

I can't agree that Mars as the ruler of an 8th house sextile Saturn would be definitive as the reason she lived to over 100 years. If this was so, how many people would live over 100 years as that aspect is not uncommon! Millions!
That aspect could be PART of the mystery....but not definitive. I think we'd have to look at many many more charts of people over 100 to come to any conclusions.

Of course you are right Lin. Just one part of the answer. When I look at her chart, the things caught my attention; this aspect and Jupiter in taurus in her eight, saturn touches her sun,moon, venus. These things may have an effect; but yes as you said,not that strong answer.
Maybe fixed stars; but I don't know about fixed stars much.

Another thing catches my eye, her ascendant ruler mercury is in its own sign and in the 9th house, very positive house. I think this can give general luck.

But you know, even people with great good luck have to ALSO deal with genetics!!

Now I am curious....lol....and I am going to try to find a good biography of her life.

Perhaps she never smoked or was a ''health nut'' early in life! Maybe she had the good luck to live her last years in a stress free environment! I am sure she had enough money to live on as I once read that she was very careful with money.

So....lol....I want to know MORE!! As a 9th house Leo this is a pattern with me....I've studied many celebs thru their ''timelines'' and autobiographies or bios.

Actually glad this subject came up...because I bored to death at this particular moment in time....

Hi, Lin and all.

[Not to put too fine a point on it, but genetics is *also* luck... what else could it be...?]

As to luck, of course we have Jupiter, which symbolizes bounty and good fortune.

Jupiter both contacts by sextile her rather amazing Cancer stellium that reaches from 3 to 18 degrees, and it also receives the stellium graciously by exaltation. Jupiter and her inner feeling life, Moon, are in mutual reception by exaltation.

That looks like pretty good fortune to me with all of those Cancer planets, including both Sun and Moon [and Venus] ruled by benefic Jupiter.

Additionally, as mentioned, elevated Merc in its dignity ruling the 1st house of the native's being, as well as the 10th, is also favorable for longevity in general.
