Star Crossed

Joyce Jillson, author of a nationally syndicated astrology column who read the stars to guide the Star Wars program for former movie star turned president Ronald Reagan and to guide the opening date for Star Wars in 1977, has been eclipsed at the age of 58. She also provided astrological forecasts for Ford Motor Co. and the Los Angeles Dodgers and claimed to have directed Reagan to the selection of George H. W. Bush as vice president, probably getting more out of a Boston University opera scholarship than anyone has a right to.
