• Grace Kelly.
• The horoscope of Grace Kelly hosts three equally underaspected Primary Transcenden­tals: Mercury, Jupiter, and Uranus. ... Grace’s early move from Philadelphia to New York City, where she pursued acting studies and made essential contacts that helped to propel her career, brought her under the vicinity of this Primary Mercury line, which rises along the eastern seaboard. Most fittingly, Primary Mercury is also located near the tiny princi­pality of Monaco (43N42; 7E23) in its vertical Midheaven position, where she assumed her final role, as Princess Grace.
•         According to biographer James Spada, Grace Kelly was born into a family that pro­vided her with little understanding or emotional support. 1 The domineering temperament of her parents and the athletically oriented atmosphere in which her other siblings thrived were anathema to the more introverted, artistic young Grace. ...
•         During her first day at New York’s Academy of Dramatic Arts, Grace met Herb Miller, a student who would inadvertently provide her with an important “contact” (Pri­mary Mercury) in the modeling world. ...
• Located in Denver, Colorado, near the setting position of Grace’s other equally underaspected Primary Transcendental, Uranus, this temporary relocation exposed Grace to the “avant-garde” dimension of Uranian energies,2 as Uranus rules the “sudden manifestation of elements related to the future personality. ” Grace’s summer at Elitch (1951) allowed her to polish her skills in a manner that guaran­teed not only her success in the “future” but also expanded her sense of “freedom”: a Ura­nian goal that seems to have dominated her early life. ...
•         Grace Kelly was a highly successful Hollywood movie star who nonetheless detested Hollywood, a city where she felt she had “many acquaintances but few friends. ... ” Two of Grace’s Leading or most-aspected planets — Leading Moon and Tertiary Leader, Saturn — form a Leading Planet Midpoint-Field over southern Califor­nia, indicating a locale of “emotional / constraint” and “hypersensitivity / to authority fig­ures and professional institutions. ...

Princess Grace was part of a practical joke played on JFK when he was still a Senator, and was recovering from a back operation in a New York hospital. Grace Kelly was still an actress, and one that JFK greatly admired. Grace was dressed as a night nurse and came into JFK's room in the middle of the night and woke him up. ... Grace quietly left the room. ... Years later, he still questioned it, and at this official meeting he asked Grace about it, and for the first time knew it was not a dream.

• Looking back to when I visited Monaco as a teen and toured the Pink Palace grounds, I remember hearing about what a fairytale life this American woman was having living as the Princess of Monaco. ... The late Grace Kelly may have been an American Princess, but happy ever after was not part of the deal. Princess Grace married Prince Rainier of Monaco merely to make her father proud. Supposedly, the "ugly duckling" of the family, Grace Kelly sought refuge in the movies by becoming an actress. Part publicity stunt and part need for attention Grace married a man she barely even knew. ... Grace became trapped in life that didn't provide an outlet such as her acting, the love she was always seeking or the happiness that seem to escape her. ... Princess Grace was beautiful and elegant, but very much a bird in a cage. ...
• I didn't know much about Grace Kelly before reading this book, aside from the fact she died in a car crash & was luminous & charming in Hitchcock's 'Rear Window'.
• The book was interesting- I learned more than I had expected about what it means to be royal- and less than I had hoped about Grace Kelly. ... There was so much 'talk' throughout the book about how much Grace changed once she became part of the principality & I wanted to be able to contrast that more thoroughly with the earlier part of her life.
• Overall, I'd say if you're a huge Grace Kelly fan you'll probably want to read this- although be warned, the overall tone is pretty depressing. ...
• Randy Taraborrelli has written a superb account of the lives of Grace Kelly and Prince Rainier: Their courtship, the wedding, regrets and tribulations; and, finally, the tragic death of the princess. ...

• Once Upon a Time: Behind the Fairy Tale of Princess Grace and Prince Rainier.
• And in 1956 there was the creation of Princess Grace Kelly, the pale, regal cinema darling who at the age of twenty-seven could write her own ticket in Hollywood and had been courted by, and spurned, some of the most handsome men of the day - Ray Milland, William Holding, Bing Crosby, Oleg Cassini, even Frank Sinatra. ...
• Rainier almost certainly did his homework and knew that besides being one of the most beautiful women in the world, Grace Kelly came from a prosperous and feisty clan of Irish class busters who had clawed their way into High Society (the title of one of Grace's most successful films). ...
• Grace's father, Jack, insisted on calling the Prince "Ray" and used the occasion of her wedding to brag openly about himself. ...
• Perhaps because of this, both Rainier and Grace took a strong role in the raising of their three children, and though they fought endlessly over important matters - the Prince having once said wisely that "marriage is having the same argument over and over" - they tended to agree and support each other when the chips, casino style, were down. Grace did much to rehabilitate the somewhat seedy image of Monaco in the heady circles she inhabited, and even took her children to paint the walls of the country's rundown hospital. For his part, Rainier was as willing as he could bring himself to be to allow Grace to resume her film career, for her sake, though ultimately she was as willing as she could bring herself to be to relinquish it, for his sake. ...
• Notwithstanding the warmth they obviously engendered in one another, the book is salted with alluringly poignant glimpses of Grace in a mope: "Many days were spent in boredom. ... " For his part, we hear the Prince constantly professing his desire to make his wife happy at any cost and acknowledging in an interview "There have been times, you know, when the Princess has been a little melancholic - which I understand - about having performed a form of art successfully, only to be cut away from it completely. ...
• He may however go too far in lauding the amazing Grace, when he states that "though Princess Diana's funeral would bring a great outpouring of grief in 1996, it is probably Princess Grace's memory that will prove the more indelible. " Hardly a supportable view, considering that Diana was the wife of a possible king and member of a legitimate and world renowned royal lineage, whereas Grace, for all the work she did to "burnish the image of Monaco" was merely the commoner wife of a man of questionable royalty whose tiny estate (a few square miles) was and still is, to some, a bit of a joke.
• However, the author points out correctly that Grace's place at the head of the queue for Diana's wedding gave credence to the Grimaldi's claim to royal status - and perhaps Diana loved Grace and honored her in this way, because upon meeting her "she then put one hand on each of Diana's cheeks, cupping her face. ...
• Of course the death of Grace, like that of Diana, is shrouded in suspicion and conspiracy mongering. Who was really driving the car - and why did it crash? Like Diana's tragic demise as she fled the ubiquitous paparazzi with her illicit lover, the passing of Grace was attended by paradox and premonition. On her first visit to Monaco, before having met Rainier with all that lying before her, Grace cried out in genuine fear, "Who would dare drive these roads?" And once during her compromise phase, when Grace had begun to realize finally that wife and mother and Princess was all she would ever get to be, she "had a nightmare that she'd been involved in a dreadful accident and was paralyzed for life. ...

At the request of her father, Prince Rainier, she took on a number of high-profile roles, including those she holds with the Princess Grace Foundation and the Red Cross. ''After Grace's death a miracle happened,'' said Prince Rainier the following year. ''Princess Caroline stepped into her mother's shoes. ...

• Despite the intensive media coverage of her life, from the death of her mother through her husband's public antics, Caroline has focused elsewhere, primarily on her continuing duties with the Red Cross and the Princess Grace Foundation. ...

•         The characterization of New York as a power-center for Grace Kelly occurs repeat­edly in her biography. ... Biographer Spada notes: “Grace’s screen test for the part was to be instrumental in winning her two other roles which began her ascension to Hollywood stardom. ” Although John Ford was “unmoved by Grace’s performance in High Noon” he reevaluated his assessment of her “skills” (Mercury) after viewing her New York screen test for Taxi, and she was subse­quently signed for his film, Mogambo (1953). Some of the African settings of Mogambo would transport Grace to the vicinity of her other Primary Transcendental, Jupiter, which is positioned in a vertical Midheaven line along the east coast of Africa. During the shoot­ing of Mogambo, Grace had the “opportunity” (Primary Jupiter) to work with such notable stars as Clark Gable and Ava Gardner. ...
•         The Taxi screening would also bring her to the obsessive and indulgent attention of her most devoted director, Alfred Hitchcock, whose direction of Grace in Rear Window (1954) would catapult her to real stardom. Hitchcock “had seen Grace in High Noon and a rough cut of Mogambo and was not impressed. ... With the success of Rear Window, “suddenly Grace Kelly was a box office draw. ...
• When Grace and sev­eral of the crew members later drove around the country, she was entranced by descriptions of a spectacular garden on a high plateau which was impossible for them to reach. ...
•         ”Oh,” Grace said wistfully. ...
• Indeed, from the start, Grace was intrigued by the Jupiterian “splendor” of the Grimaldis and their estate.
• ” This locale (so close to her Primary Mercury line) was looked upon lovingly by Grace. ...
• As she prepared to fly to France, Grace was unaware of a conference taking place in the offices of Paris Match magazine — a meeting that set in motion a series of events that would ultimately change her life forever.
•         Pierre Galante, Paris Match’s movie editor, read aloud a list of celeb­rities scheduled to attend, and all agreed that Grace Kelly, who had just won the Oscar, would be the festival’s center of attention. ... Managing editor Gaston Bonheur, musing aloud, asked Galante, “Do you think you could arrange a meeting between Grace Kelly and Prince Rainier of Monaco?”7.

• As you will learn from this book, Grace's life was not perfect. ... This biography of Grace Kelly not only looks at her admiringly, as a movie star and a princess, but it also tries to present a clear picture of her day-to-day life. ...
• For those that are unfamiliar with the story of Grace Kelly and her elevation to 'Princess', Once Upon a Time: Behind the Fairy Tale of Princess Grace and Prince Rainier will provide a comprehensive introduction to the woman and her history. ... For example, Taraborrelli explores Grace's bouts with depression that she suffered after her marriage when she realized that she would no longer be able to 'make' movies. It also explores the problems she faced with boredom once she became a princess and a 'proverbial bird in the gilded cage'. Taraborrelli also examines how Grace strove to overcome the drawbacks that being a 'royal' entails and how she came to accept the role that she had created for herself.
• In large measure this book is based upon numerous interviews and conversations that Taraborrelli had with those who knew Grace best, including her relatives. In the process of interpreting Princess Grace's life, Taraborrelli also succeeded in rendering a detailed portrait of Prince Rainier. In addition, while exploring the myths that surround the image of Princess Grace, Taraborrelli also answers the question, did Grace live 'happily ever after' or was the fairy tale just a facade?.
