Leo stage sign, Virgo craft, Scully to Thatcher

Sun in Leo, Mercury in Leo and Mars in Leo is the stage sign three times over on paper, and Gillian Anderson's stage record is there: the Theatre World Award for Absent Friends in 1991, the Evening Standard Theatre Award for Best Actress for A Streetcar Named Desire, and three Laurence Olivier nominations.

The Scully role won a Primetime Emmy Award.

Venus in Virgo, Jupiter in Virgo, Uranus in Virgo and Pluto in Virgo is the craft sign four planets deep by the book, and the screen list reads like a case file of specific people: Dana Scully, Lily Bart, Stella Gibson, Margaret Thatcher in The Crown.
