Moon in Leo would certainly enjoy playing dress-up for the amusement of others. And <strong>always look for the Mars in the birth chart of a comedian.<\/strong> Freud may have been way off with some of his theories, but I tend to agree with him that &#8220;humor&#8221; is a deflected form of &#8220;anger.&#8221; <strong>Cohen&#8217;s Mars is in Aquarius, and takes aspects from half the planets in his chart.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>What is most telling to me though is his <strong>Jupiter-Neptune conjunction in Sagittarius.<\/strong> Although it might be an oversimplification to say simply that &#8220;Jupiter rules humor, and thus the conjunction to Neptune gives him the ability to vanish into a comedic character,&#8221; there you have it. That&#8217;s exactly what he does for a living.<\/p>\n<p>His new film, a sequel to his hit movie <em>Borat<\/em>, releases on Amazon Prime this Friday. The original entered wide release in November 2006, and was a huge hit. Part of the reason why it has taken so long to make a sequel is that Borat (the character) has become instantly recognizable (although in between, he was able to create the hilarious <em>Who Is America?<\/em>. In the new film, Cohen takes on the unusual conceit of playing Borat, who must in turn play another character undercover. How meta is <em>that?<\/em><\/p>\n<p><strong>So is Borat Subsequent Moviefilm going to be a big hit and get a lot of attention?<\/strong> It&#8217;s hard to say without a time of birth and without knowing the house placements and where the Midheaven is. But one thing I do know? This movie is going to get a lot of attention because of one particular prominent political figure who gets skewered in it, in a particularly embarrassing manner.<\/p>\n<p>We don&#8217;t do politics here at Beliefnet, so I&#8217;ll just have to ask you all to go <strong>search today&#8217;s latest news stories that include the words &#8220;Borat&#8221; and &#8220;Rudy.&#8221;<\/strong> <em>You&#8217;re welcome.<\/em><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><em>Want to know how to work with the current and future energy to get maximum benefit? <a href=\"mailto:astrologyshow@gmail.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Feel free to write me about it!<\/a><\/em><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.beliefnet.com\/columnists\/ohmystars\/about-matthew-currie.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><em>CLICK HERE to find out how you can get a personalized, informative, life-changing consultation that will help you take charge of your life in the next year!<\/em><\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/matthewtheastrologer\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><em>CLICK HERE to join the OH MY STARS Facebook Fan Page, and get exclusive content, an additional discount on a reading, and more material on blog entries!<\/em><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Sacha Baron Cohen (born October 13th 1971, time unknown, London England) is a comedian &#8212; but not a typical stand-up telling jokes.
