About Dorothy Dandridge

Dorothy Dandridge was the first African American woman nominated for the Academy Award for Best Actress, for her role in Carmen Jones. A trailblazer in Hollywood, she broke racial barriers while demonstrating extraordinary talent as both an actress and singer.

Dorothy Dandridge the Scorpio

Scorpio does not do shallow. A fixed water sign traditionally ruled by Mars and modernly by Pluto, Scorpio is drawn to whatever is real and hidden: the actual feeling under the polite answer, the thing nobody says at dinner. Small talk is a chore; the conversation at 2am is where Scorpio comes alive.

Drawn from the birth date alone: without a birth time there is no Rising sign or houses, and a planet that changed sign that day shows both signs.
