Apologies for the tabloidesque title ;-)
What is meant here by 'the stars' is literally that - how the planets in Gordon's chart link with the stars using what are called 'parans'. A paran is just like an aspect, but instead of linking one planet to another in this case they link a planet to a star.
In Gordon's chart both the Sun and the Moon form a paran with the star Regulus. This doubling up is interesting, because it means that both levels of identity are involved, the solar level and the lunar level, and that's a biggie. So what does Regulus in paran with these two mean?
Firstly, empire-building. Regulus was a royal star of Persia, and thus of leadership but also of jealousy, rivalry, and vengeance. The Persians saw it as symbolising a king who entered battle for the sake of revenge. Hmmm. Doesn't take a genius to see where this works out in Gordon's life, does it?
One astrologer who works with the stars interprets the Moon in paran with Regulus this way: "you will be attacked by petty politics, and will have to ensure that you do not reduce yourself to the level of revenge, as that will be your undoing." The paran with the Sun gives the same warning.
But these two aren't the only parans in Gordon's chart that talk about revenge.
His Sun is also in paran with Algo, also known as Ras al Ghul, although Gordon's not quite the character from Batman Begins ;-)
The symbolism of this one can be pretty grim, and is replete with psychological depth. However in Gordon's case, as the inheritor of the Afghanistan and Iraq fiascoes, it's quite literal: "piled-up corpses."
Psychologically this star-planet link is about immense passion that create, or consume through rage and the desire for revenge. Blood feuds need to be transmuted and transcended, and the higher potential of this paran consciously, deliberately, and continuously coaxed into play.
