Jack Smith (June 5, 1969)

Now, we can look at the man astrologically, just in time for the Trump arraignment #2.

He has an unknown birth time. I was reluctant to use dawn, or noon, so I randomized the time and then rectified the hour until Jack’s marriage at age 42 (Venus) lands in or about the right part of the chart.

What I didn’t expect was to discover three distinct Yods, pointing at the Uranus/Ascendant conjunction (alongside Jupiter), Venus, and Neptune. This man is under a great deal of internalized pressure.

Moon Inconjunct Jupiter

This aspect indicates that you have a positive, optimistic outlook on life, and you enjoy socializing with good friends. However, there are some dangers with this aspect. You have a great need to be cared for and supported, to be accepted for what you are with no strings attached. This problem may show up in several different ways. For instance, you might simply have a desire to eat too much, as if food were love. Or you may always be wanting things that other people own. You might be afraid of the world and be reluctant to leave your comfortable and safe surroundings.

Moon Inconjunct Uranus

With this aspect you must learn to control sudden outbursts of emotion that occur at difficult times when you least expect it. A particular incident when you were very young may have given you the feeling that you can’t count on anything or anyone for support. Later in life, you may try very hard to get away from anything that reminds you of your earliest childhood, even if your childhood has not been difficult. You just feel that you have to get away and go somewhere else.

Moon Inconjunct Ascendant

You tend to put your own emotional needs and wants second to whatever you feel has to be done. In other words, you are likely to be more disciplined emotionally than most people your age. But this is not good if you feel that your emotional needs are not important. Your needs must be fulfilled as much as anyone else’s, particularly because your feelings are really very powerful within yourself.

Venus Inconjunct Uranus (definite)

You feel mixed up about whether you want to be close to others or be free. When you are really close to a loved one, you feel smothered and want to get away by yourself to do what you want. But when you are alone and free to do what you want, you miss your loved ones and want to be with them. It will take you several years to understand yourself enough so that you can strike a balance between these two needs, so be patient. You may tell yourself that you want a steady love relationship, but then go after someone whom you know intuitively will not be reliable. But if you are honest about your need for freedom, this will not happen.

Venus Inconjunct Neptune (definite)

This aspect means that your attitudes about love and affection are very idealistic, as will become clearer later in life. You are willing to serve, help and assist those you love, but you may honestly feel that you don’t deserve to be loved unless you are forced to serve your loved one in some way. This is because you feel that loving someone requires you to make sacrifices and to deny your own needs and that love may not necessarily make you feel good and warm.

Venus Inconjunct Ascendant

You often feel that you haven’t any right to ask much of those whom you love. You feel that you must do favors for them instead of asking for their help. For you, love is an act of service, not self-gratification. However, you should realize that others will respect you if you stand up for yourself and ask for a reasonable return in a relationship. If you constantly seem to be apologizing for who and what you are, people begin to wonder if they have overlooked something that is wrong with you, and they begin to lose confidence in you. Thus you may bring about the criticism that you are afraid of. You are as good and as worthy of being loved as anyone. Be yourself with others, and many people will love you.

Neptune Inconjunct Midheaven

You are very impressionable, in that you pick up the energies around you very quickly. Therefore it is very important that you be surrounded by wholesome influences in your early years, because negative influences will weaken your self-esteem and make it much more difficult to accomplish anything when you are older. On the other hand, your impressionableness may give rise to some psychic ability, or at least a very sharp intuition when you are older.

(During the typing out of these descriptions, I was aware that his loved one may be the USA.)

Jack and the Beanstalk

Let’s face facts: we all love a fairy tale where the little guy takes on the giant and wins. So, imagine my surprise when I woke up this morning to an idea of highlighting this story, as a metaphor for Jack’s work. (But I won’t bore you with the details, since both the story and the real events are so well-known.)

It’s going to be several hours before Donald J Trump appears before a judge in Miami to be arraigned on more than three dozen charges relating to the Espionage Act. The event chart is set up for 3 pm EDT.

Some of the aspects are so spot on that it feels as if Jack was born to do this one thing, especially his North Node being conjunct to Neptune @ 27° Pisces. And, that very busy Venus in his chart is conjunct the Moon and the North Node @ (about) 0° Taurus. And Jack’s Mercury is conjunct the event Mercury.

Jack, the Giant Slayer

Now, from the Giant’s point-of-view, Jack is nothing but a sneak thief. I suspect that Trump feels the same. But is Smith going to ‘slay’ the monster? I doubt it, but it’s going to be interesting to watch.

There are very few direct links between the charts of these two individuals, but one does stand out from the rest:

Jack’s Moon Opposition Donald’s Mars

Both of you get into an energetic mood when you are together. If you share an interest in the same sport (for example, tennis or golf) you will enjoy competing against each other. However, you easily become impatient with each other and easily provoke each other’s anger and hostility. You will need to be careful to avoid becoming adversaries.
