He sent me these details today, but neglected to tell me if they were his or not. I don’t even know his name. And, normally, I wouldn’t even publish the chart without permission, but he’s writing me under a pseudonym, anyway. So, if you are following my posts here on WordPress, let me know if you want me to take this one down.
There was a Fifth Estate investigation on the CBC, last night. It involved Buffy Sainte-Marie. She’s been unmasked as an American-born white person of Italian and English ancestry. Oh dear.
The silver lining is that we now have correct birth certificate details to erect a chart for her birth place in Massachusetts, not Canada, as she originally thought. Was she delusional, or just marketing herself differently?
There are two Yods, one pointing at Uranus, the other pointing at Pluto. Hmm.
Sun Inconjunct Pluto
There will be many changes in your life, and you will be affected by deep psychological forces that may be difficult to understand at times, as well as confusing to the people around you. You approach people with great intensity, and your emotional involvements are seldom casual. Either you like people very much or you dislike them intensely. Possibly your attitudes on other matters will be extreme also. One of the most important lessons that you will have to learn is to be more moderate.
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. Also your present home life may not be a stable situation in which you can grow up emotionally secure and confident. 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.
Mars Inconjunct Pluto
You have a strong will and always want to have you own way. But very often it seems as if tremendous forces are working to prevent you from getting what you want. If you have this problem, it is because of the way you go about trying to achieve your ends. If you put too much force into your desire to get something, you may unknowingly alienate people because your aggressive manner shows that you will let nothing stop you from getting what you want. Even if that isn’t the way you really feel about it, you should recognize that your forcefulness creates this impression.
Uranus Inconjunct Midheaven
You need to express your thoughts and feelings, but you often upset the people around you with your words. You seem to enjoy creating a stir every time you say something, but this can get you into quite a bit of trouble with parents, teachers and other authority figures. The underlying principle of this aspect is the need to balance your individual self-expression and manner of communicating with your need to learn and grow under the guidance of older people.
Has the Messenger’s deceit destroyed the Message? Perhaps.

“Normal” service has resumed. Hopefully, the world will be put back to rights, again, except that a MAGA supporter is sitting in the Speaker’s chair. Will that have a good or bad result for the rest of us*?
This is a time of birth that I ‘plucked’ from the air. Of the four inconjuncts shown above, only one is suspect because it links Mars to the Ascendant (in Virgo). But I’m leaving it as it is, because it may explain things that would ordinarily be unseen. Two of those inconjuncts form a Yod pointing at Venus.
Moon Inconjunct Venus
You need to be loved, even more than most people, particularly by your mother or another woman who takes the place of your mother. This need for love will be the force behind many of your actions. If you don’t find the love you are looking for, you will develop an insecure hunger for love from everyone you meet. However, you may express this in very strange ways, such as a desire for food, especially sweets, which unconsciously represent love to you.
Venus Inconjunct Uranus
Your uncertainty about love and freedom will be even greater if one of your parents doesn’t seem to really love you steadily, if you feel you cannot count on that parent when you need help. This would make you feel that love is somehow unreliable, that you cannot depend on anyone who loves you. As a result, you won’t permit anyone to depend on you either.
Mars Inconjunct Ascendant
In close relationships you have to learn to compromise. Initially you may come on very strong and act very aggressively toward someone you are interested in. But that approach only provokes conflict because the other person feels threatened. If you learn to take a softer approach, you will be able to get what you want, within reason, without having to fight for it.
Jupiter Inconjunct Saturn
You may have mixed feelings about authority as well. On one hand you respect and admire your parents, teachers and other adults who guide your growth, but at the same time you resist their teachings. At times you resent these people very much, because they seem to limit you so.
A seemingly ‘balanced’ response to being elected Speaker of the House
Trump has only just noticed that U.S. spells “us”. And he asked his supporters at a rally, “Has anyone else noticed this?”
In the interests of research, I have decided to share my own ‘proof’ of paternity, using my parents’ birth charts in comparison with my own.
Previously, I look at my mother’s chart in combination with my own, but now I want to expand this outwards.
The closest link involves my Pluto, Mom’s Neptune and Dad’s Moon. The other one involves my Neptune, Mom’s Saturn and Dad’s Jupiter. Direct links with my Dad include: my Sun and his Venus; my Mercury and his Mercury/Uranus/Part of Fortune; my North Node (with Mom’s Mars) and Dad’s Mars/Saturn conjunct; finally, my Uranus and his Pluto. (And, because I randomized his birth time, his Ascendant is almost opposite my Ascendant.) So, do you doubt he’s my father? I don’t.
Elizabeth Talbot – Countess of Shrewsbury (1531 – February 13, 1608)
Now, this is outside my normal comfort zone. In fact this post should be rated “U” for Unreliable. As “Bess” of Hardwick‘s birth date is unknown, Luke Aaron was wondering if I could use the death chart to prove who her parents might be, presuming that they are not the ones that have been suggested in history over time.
Luke is sure that Bess might be Elizabeth I’s “hidden” sister, since she was born before Henry VIII and Anne Boleyn were allowed to marry. Illegitimate or not, she may have therefore been the rightful heir to the English throne. That is pure speculation on his part.
This time we do not get a link-up of the North and South Nodes over three charts. In fact, the only significant line up involves Bess’ ‘fatal’ Venus/Saturn conjunct with Anne’s Neptune and Henry’s Uranus.
The other line up is Bess’ Mars, with Anne’s Moon and Henry’s Neptune. So, the verdict is: “I doubt it”.
At the same time, Luke speculated that (perhaps) Elizabeth I was not Henry’s daughter, after all. Hmm.
Since I do have Elizabeth I’s birth details, my comparison charts will be of their three birth charts.
This time, Elizabeth’s Jupiter is conjunct Anne’s Moon and Henry’s Neptune (all in her 12th House). No other aspects line up for all three individuals together. So, strange as it might seem, Henry may not have fathered Anne’s daughter Princess Elizabeth (later Queen Elizabeth I). Oh, what a mess. I wish I hadn’t agreed to this experiment.
Because, when we try to revise history (with or without astrology), we come into a situation that cannot be undone: one person became Queen, the other became the richest widow in England.
I know which one I’d rather be, if I were faced with their situations. I cannot say fairer than that.
OK. The results of the previous two attempts are somewhat questionable. Luke Aaron thinks 1533 would be a better year for Dudley’s birth, so I’m going to do one more attempt, using June 24th as his birth date.
Again, I’ve randomized the timing, so inconjuncts involving the Ascendant and/or Midheaven are suspect, but that does leave the one connecting Venus and Pluto intact, which might be informative.
Venus Inconjunct Pluto
This aspect may mean that you are very possessive and demanding of your loved ones. You may not want to accept the fact that your friends can love other people besides yourself. Let your friends be themselves freely when they are with you, and try not to be too demanding of their time. Love for friends and relatives should be given freely, not used as a way to control them. If you do that, you will lose their love.
Oh-ho. That’s interesting, isn’t it?
Third Attempt at Connecting the Death Chart to Parents’ Birth Charts
This one is not as satisfying, at least to me, but I must admit that the conjunction between their North/South Nodal axis is somewhat compelling. The other links are there, too, but not as significant.
Robert Dudley (Sr) (June 24, 1532 – September 4, 1588)
Earlier today, I experimented with a combination of charts to see if paternity could be proven using astrology. But the chart I used for Robert Dudley was patently incorrect (using Elizabeth’s birth date and one year later). So, I’m going to redo this experiment with a new version of his birth chart.
This chart is randomized. There are two inconjuncts, one linking the Moon and Venus, the other linking Saturn and Pluto. At any rate, this is very dynamic. But the proof will be in the combination of the three charts, as before.
Is it proof? Perhaps. Bacon’s ‘fatal’ Moon is conjunct Elizabeth’s Pluto and Dudley’s Pluto (which isn’t too surprising since Pluto moves so slowly). Bacon’s ‘fatal’ Uranus is conjunct Elizabeth’s North Node and Dudley’s Venus. But is it enough?
The rumours were true, as far as I am concerned. What say you?
The Worst Kept Secret of an English Royal Birth from 1561
Luke Aaron asked this question yesterday. His reason was the prevalence of vague birth details, especially in the Elizabethan era. It had never occurred to me to try, but that’s why me must keep an open mind about such matters. My rationale? Time is cyclical. What goes around comes around again.
Robert Dudley, 1st Earl of Leicester (September 7, 1534* – September 4, 1588)
Now, as I’d noted before, there seems to be no definite proof that Dudley (Sr)’s birth date is as stated.
There is a popular tradition that Robert Dudley was the same age as Elizabeth I; however, in a letter to William Cecil he denotes 24 June as his birthday, and a 1576 portrait miniature by Nicholas Hilliard gives his age as 44, “so 1532 is the most likely year of his birth” (Adams 2008b)
But the programmers of my Kepler 7.0 astrology program had his birth chart in there already, but with a different date*. They even knew the time of day, and justified it all by stating that they had his Birth Certificate in hand! Here’s the chart:
See what I mean? Two+ years off the ‘estimated’ and perhaps correct birth time. But my reason for showing this one instead of a different one is the position of Venus. If I were to rectify his chart, this would represent the age at which he fathered a son with Elizabeth (in other words, when he got intimate with her). So, who’s to know?
The Experimental Part of This Post
Here is Francis Bacon’s death chart in combination is Elizabeth’s birth chart and this purported birth chart for Robert Dudley:
What do you think? Is it feasible? (And with Dudley’s chart most like wrong, does it warrant any further discussion?) Let me know.
This goes along with the idea that Putin has body doubles. Now, if that were true then we could reasonably consider that these rumours have substance, but when knewz.com does the reporting, the feeling of disinformation is very strong.
This is the reported time of the guards hearing a loud thud from Putin’s apartment and then finding him on the floor. So, is it true? If Moscow had been observing Daylight Savings Time, there would have been an aspect of the Moon inconjunct Ascendant, which would have been interesting, but they’re on Standard Time, so no conspiracy or hidden motives. Why on earth do we support such news reports?
The only thing that stands out for me when these two charts are combined is the event Ascendant being on Putin’s natal Descendant. Hmm.
Rudolf Steiner attaches great importance to the connection between Bacon and the court of the Abbasid Caliphate in Baghdad, where Harun al-Rashid reigned from 786 until 809 AD. Harun al-Rashid was a patron of the arts and learning and was, according to Steiner, the bearer of the individuality who later incarnated as Francis Bacon, thereby making Western Europe accessible to a renewed stream of Arabian thought.
This is as close to a correct date as is possible from this great distance of time and space. Harun al-Rashid might be a shadowy figure from the 1001 Arabian Nights, but he was a real flesh and blood person. The timing of his birth chart is randomized, so everything about it might be wrong, and yet there are four inconjuncts, two linked from Pluto to his Saturn and Uranus conjunction and two linked from the Midheaven to his Mars and Neptune conjunction. They are very powerful aspects, if true.
Let’s Compare Harun al-Rashid’s Charts to Francis Bacon’s Birth Chart
Every time, before the results are displayed, I have a small doubt that it will never work out: but I’m wrong yet again. Because these two are closer together in time, their charts are more closely aligned.
As I’m very big on North Node connections, the one in Francis’ chart is conjunct both Harun’s ‘fatal’ Mars, and his natal Moon/Mercury conjunction. Francis’ Moon is conjunct Harun’s natal Saturn/Uranus conjunction and Francis’s Neptune is conjunct Harun’s ‘fatal’ Moon. Both Harun’s ‘fatal’ South Node and his natal North Node are in Francis’ 12th House (of the Unconscious). And finally, Francis’ Mars is conjunct Harun’s ‘fatal’ Saturn, an echo of his relationship (although reversed) with Elizabeth I.
