Introduction and Life Events
 

Story: Bruce Springsteen was one of music’s biggest sensations of the 1970s and 80s, known for passionate live performances backed by his tight-knit group, the E Street Band. He struggled as a small-time act for years, but a 1972 audition with music legend John Hammond led to an immediate contract offer with Columbia records, and with his 1975 breakthrough album, Born To Run, and its blistering title track, he took the world by storm. Known for his endurance and dedication, his shows were over three hours long, and following the release of his 1980 album, The River, the endless touring eventually required time off to re-charge. When they returned to the touring stage four years later, with the release of Born in the U.S.A., Springsteen’s legend took on new dimensions in a new larger-than-life decade.

Stars: Springsteen was born with natal Uranus in Cancer in a square configuration to his natal Sun in Libra, signifying his lack of pretension and popular image as a symbol of the All-American working-class everyman. Astrology demonstrates how transits of the slower planets to key planets in his natal chart have coincided with crucial turning points in his legendary career.
