Ben Kingsley is a theoretician. He seeks the absolute truth and is fascinated by difficult problems. He is a deep thinker who is able to abstract and conjecture. He is also cautious and persistent. He has a voracious appetite for ideologies, structures, and theories and enjoys reading difficult material. He is sensitive and vulnerable to emotional urges and is often reluctant to engage in casual dating or meaningless love affairs. He values deep feelings and enjoys passionate relationships. He is able to succeed because he is able to release his emotions and pursue his goals.

Due to the influence of Pisces rising, you have a psychic’s sensitive and emotive personality. You are suggestible and fairly easily influenced, generally friendly and cheerful, but sometimes evanescent. Your temperament is sometimes passive due to a lack of pugnacity, and you are often reserved and perhaps even timid in unfamiliar surroundings. Conversely, you can be expansive and garrulous in more reassuring settings. At times, you feel guilty about your passivity, and to rid yourself of it, you try to make yourself useful to others. The same feelings may help you redirect yourself, overcome your insecurities, and find new faith in yourself. In relation to others, you’re receptive, intuitive, and exhibit an almost extrasensory perceptiveness and ability to listen; your broad mind and flexibility inspire respect and esteem. Combined with these, your native warm-heartedness and fairness could bring you great success socially, and help you find personal fulfillment and happiness in your career activities.

Ben Kingsley thrives on relating to other people. He cannot live without love!

At the time of your birth, your rising sign was located in Pisces (the Fish), while the sun was passing through the sign of Capricorn (the Goat). A summary of the various clues mentioned above provides your personality profile. The following key words capture the essence of your character and indicate certain contradictions which may be sources of tension:

Emotionalism – Guile – Pliancy – Need for security – Humbleness and reserve – Inhibition – Idealism – Application – Methodical mind – Intuition – Forethought – Premonition – Loyalty.

From the outside, you appear cautious and severe, but inside, you are sensitive and giving. Because you are excessively impressionable, you are reluctant to express your true self. You hide your deepest impulses behind a mask of distance and remoteness, feigning indifference if not faint-heartedness. However, you are deceiving mainly yourself. Your powers of concentration and determination, your great ability to control yourself, and the analytical and interpretative qualities of your mind are important assets. If you develop them, you will have the potential to accomplish great things.

Ben Kingsley was born three and a half to seven days after the rising of the new moon, which is said to be a “crescent moon” lunar type. This configuration indicates that he may need to make an effort to free himself from the past. Something related to his childhood, parents, or ancestors is holding him back, impairing his effectiveness and could stand to be overcome. Due to his past, he refuses tried-and-true models, is always fighting to justify his innovative viewpoints, and tends to break away from tradition. He is hardly ever aware that he is making career and lifestyle choices which are based on an urge to modify his relationship to society, and the rigid standards and models from the past.
