Gone with the Wind and Astrology

Astrology is one of my hobbies, and I like to speculate on what the natal charts of each character would be.  There are several articles on the internet that mention Margaret Mitchell had an interest in astrology, and that the characters in GWTW are based on the 12 Zodiac signs.  The only birthday of a character known for sure is Beau Wilkes.  He would've been a triple Virgo (sun/moon/rising).  Here are some articles/posts on that subject.

Gone with the Wind: The Zodical Parade by Alex Trenowith

Gone with the Wind is a thinly disguised astrological allegory. . .urban legend or fact?
