Actor Chuck Norris, during an acting career spanning nearly 60 years, became “a pop culture emblem of alpha male indestructibility.” His movies – Forced Revenge, Hellbound, An Eye for an Eye, The Strength of One, Silent RageThey were what they said they were. After film, he moved to television in the 1990s with Walker, Texas Ranger. He has died at the age of 86.
He was born on March 10, 1940 at 3 a.m. in Ryan, Oklahoma, to a father who was a World War I veteran and a drinker. His older brother was killed in Vietnam. Chuck served in the US Air Force in South Korea and later competed in international martial arts tournaments, running a chain of karate schools in California. Bruce Lee invited him to participate in The Way of the Dragon, the highest-grossing Hong Kong film in history, which established Norris on the film scene.
A Pisces Sun opposition to Neptune would suit him well for the movies, but it was his explosive Mars Uranus conjunction in Taurus, sextile his Sun and trine Neptune that gave him his specialty of violent action. And the destructive star sets Algol in its performance 5th home.
His intense 7th The Pluto house was square Saturn in Aries, forced to be self-sufficient, conjunct Venus in Taurus (not an emotionally easy temperament), gloomy and harsh. His Sun/Moon midpoint was in opposition to Neptune, so compromise would be an effort. His Chiron was in his 7thth house of close relationships and his Moon in Aries was trine Pluto. A whole mix of conflictive, possessive and fickle.
He was an outspoken Christian and Republican.
