PLACE OF BIRTH – SYRACUSE, NEW YORK, UNITED STATES OF AMERICA

Tom Cruise, one of the world's most celebrated actors, is renowned for his astonishing daringness and courage, enabling him to undertake any dangerous adventure with immense willpower, wealth, and influence. He has truly established himself as an entertainer who pushes boundaries. Let's analyse his horoscope.

Firstly, Mercury conjunct Mars in a Taurus ascendant bestows daringness, further amplified by the ascendant lord Venus placed in the 3rd house. Taurus ascendants inherently possess a strong drive to accumulate wealth and often succeed. His 2nd and 5th lords, Mercury, conjunct the 7th lord, Mars, in the ascendant, significantly contributed to his immense net worth.

The conjunction of Venus with Rahu in the 3rd house, along with the Moon, indicates a strong talent for acting and an obsession with flying and aeroplanes. As the 3rd house is a natural airy trikona, it explains his inclination to jump from or climb high-rise buildings. Opposite this conjunction, Saturn and Ketu sitting together in the 9th house in their own sign signify blessings from past life merits, manifesting all the pleasures of past deeds in the present life. However, these conjunctions in his chart have also been detrimental to his mental well-being, leading to failed and on-again-off-again relationships and marriages.

The placement of the Sun in the 2nd house indicates earning money through sheer hard work. As the 4th lord in the 2nd house, aspected by the 11th lord Jupiter from the 10th house, his material empire has significantly expanded. Tom Cruise has two retrograde planets, which intensify life events, manifesting both good and bad. He has led a life that many only dream of, travelling the world, being globally recognised, and possessing the power to do as he pleases, famously displayed during his stunts on the Burj Khalifa in Dubai for "Mission: Impossible—Ghost Protocol". At that time, he was running Venus Mahadasha and Rahu Antardasha, both positioned in the 3rd house, bestowing the boldness and willpower to perform such stunts. The Moon, sitting with this conjunction in Pushya Nakshatra, provided him with many comforts, which Rahu further expanded.

Tom Cruise’s ascendant lord placed in the 3rd house, with the 9th lord Saturn aspecting it, gave him opportunities to see the world and travel far and wide. The beneficence of the 9th lord, Saturn, and the 5th lord, Mercury, being in a 5/9 relationship to each other, brought him world fame. Tom Cruise continues to be in excellent shape, delivering one blockbuster after another. He is currently running the Sun Mahadasha, with the Sun in Gemini aspected by Jupiter, which will ensure the continued growth of his empire without any future downfall. The Sun in Ardra Nakshatra's 4th pada, moving into Pisces Navamsha with an exalted Venus, will help him succeed and engage in entertainment activities of his liking without impediments. While a planet in Ardra can make one intriguing with quick wit, as it is Rahu's nakshatra, it could also bring certain disappointments due to restrictions related to his advancing age.

Tom Cruise, being a Moon sign Cancer, might experience diseases and injuries as Jupiter shifts to the 12th house from his natal Moon. However, the double transit of Jupiter and Saturn on the 6th house from his natal Moon could motivate him to continue with his adventurous pursuits, even if his physique eventually begins to decline.
