This little fellow decided to seek shelter in the engine of our car, a week-and-a-half ago. He was trying to escape the attention of two large dogs. However, his warning noises made his whereabouts quite obvious (to man and dogs), so I opened the hood of the car and there he was sprawled over the engine cover. He quickly scrambled down into the interior of the engine to elude detection. My wife, Susan, took this photograph of his hidey-hole.
We walked away and left the hood open. After about 15 minutes, he waddled his way down the hill towards the river, to peace and tranquility. It was a moment to remember, for sure.
Fanny Brice (especially as Baby Snooks) was a very funny lady. She also died too young (59).
Since this chart is timed for 3 minutes after midnight, it rightly is considered “conflicting/unverified”. Now, where have we heard that term before? Ah, yes, Madonna’s birth chart, seen just today. Hmm.
That combination of Neptune and Pluto conjunct, both inconjunct to the Sun and Mercury, may be where her humour comes from. I’m not going to delineate those aspects, since my purpose for looking at Ms. Brice’s birth and death charts is to investigate who she might have returned as when she reincarnated. Her death chart will give us a huge echo:
This timing of her death is considered accurate, since it was reported locally at the time. What do you know? That Neptune inconjunct the Midheaven was so unexpected, I had to take a second look just to make sure I wasn’t just imagining it. Pluto on the Ascendant was probably the trigger for her death.
Now, look at Madonna’s birth chart combined with these two charts, and see if you agree with me.
Fanny Brice’s natal Moon/Saturn conjunction is conjunct her ‘fatal’ Saturn, which in turn is conjunct Madonna’s Part of Fortune. Yes, Papa don’t preach, for sure. I think we have ‘lift-off’. The other proof? Ms. Brice’s natal and ‘fatal’ Ascendants are within 4° of Madonna’s Sun, Fanny’s natal Jupiter is opposite Madonna’s Ascendant. I like this.
We forget how hard it must be to be working your full-time job and coming up to your retirement age. Madonna has been in the news lately, and her health hasn’t been prefect, by anyone’s standards. So, I was interested to see if there was anything in her birth chart that might represent her NDE (if that’s what it was).
And yet, here is another timing of a birth chart that’s “conflicting/unverified”. Hmm.
If I wanted to have a ‘close call’ representative on a birth chart, I would suggest that the South Node (@ 25° Aries) at age 64 would be a good place to start. So, maybe, this birth chart is correct…
Neptune Inconjunct Midheaven
With this aspect you may have to build up your self-confidence considerably while you are young and learn that you are as worthy as anyone else. Your natural tendency is to yield to authority, so that those people who are most influential in your life, including your parents, should be very careful about how they exercise their authority over you. If they try to control you too much, or if they make you feel that you just aren’t able to manage your own affairs, it will be difficult to correct the effects of this negative influence later in life.
(Now do you see where the title of this piece comes from? I got it before looking at this description.)
I suppose it’s the fact that George Orwell died 19 days before I was born that made me finally want to look at this teller of truth. But is the timing of his death the only connection that I have with him?
Orwell’s birth time is unknown, but one astrologer decided to set it @ 2:30 pm (local India time) and everyone has followed suit. If any planets are indicators of his death, I suppose it would be Pluto, but in this chart, the timing should have been when he was 55 years of age, not 46, as it turned out. So, perhaps we’re in the right ballpark, but also maybe he got stuck on third base, when the side retired.
It’s the North and South Nodes that caught my eye, here. They are opposite mine. That flipping of the Nodes can signify reincarnation, but haven’t I already sorted out my previous lives for the early 20th century? Can I be mistaken, yet again? Or was I just ignoring the obvious?
If I’m being honest, I don’t look anything like Mr. Orwell, but a picture of me at the same age as the one shown above does have a visual echo of the brackets his cheeks make. But is that enough? Probably not.
Nevertheless, let’s compare my birth chart with George Orwell’s birth and death charts:
This fact came up on my daily calendar. I then realized that I hadn’t looked at Jeff Bezos in detail before.
When a person’s birth time is unknown, most astrology sites use dawn or noon as the time. In this case, someone went out on a limb and chose 11:33 am, for some unfathomable reason. The site that showed this time marked it as DD (conflicting/unverified). But we have to start some place, so here we are.
There are three inconjuncts:
Jupiter Inconjunct Uranus (definitely)
With this aspect, especially if either of the planets is in conjunction or opposition with the Ascendant or Midheaven, you may be unable to decide whether you should act alone in total freedom or with others in group or social situations. You may feel that instead of believing something that others believe, you have to establish your own ideas and values. You may try to be a nonconformist simply for its own sake, which is obviously a waste. The validity of an idea is totally independent of how many people believe it, and it is as bad to automatically reject what others believe as to accept it blindly.
Jupiter Inconjunct Pluto (for sure)
You have a great deal of creative power, and the major challenge of your life will be learning how to handle it. First of all, you must realize that you will get the most out of life if you direct your energies toward helping the people around you and those you love. You will want to change many conditions in the world, which is fine as long as your reasons are not purely selfish ones.
Even at best you will get a certain amount of resistance from others, because they will feel your energy and be afraid of your motives. Unless you show them that your motives are good and that you can be reasoned with, you will run into opponents who are more powerful than you, who will stop you and make your efforts futile.
Neptune Inconjunct Ascendant (perhaps)
This aspect can be a sign that you feel you must give way to others in order to get along with them. This can take two forms. The less positive form is simply yielding to all outside pressure and always giving in to others. The other, more positive, way of dealing with this energy is by giving freely before others try to take it from you. In the highest expression of this aspect, what you gain for yourself will not mean as much as what you gain for others, which is the effect you should work for.
(Can you see how this last aspect may prove that the timing of his birth is incorrect?)
The Founding of Amazon (July 5, 1994)
In some ways, this chart is an echo of Bezos birth chart, especially the inconjuncts (which are slightly changed, but have three planets – and the Ascendant – in common). The added Venus conjunct Ascendant may be an accidental hint of his reasons for starting Cadabra (as it was first known). It’s a ‘kind of magic act’. I won’t be delineating the inconjuncts, though, since this entity was originally unincorporated. But. far more telling is a comparison for this chart with Bezos natal chart and the chart for the IPO.
The IPO chart was already on my computer program. In many ways, one could say that Amazon is Bezos in corporate clothes. But without the initial start-up from his garage in Bellevue, Washington, the Amazon we know (and love) would never have existed. Can you see that?
Cyrus II (died December 4, 530 BC) and David Koresh (August 17, 1959 – April 19, 1993)
They said that something was whacko in Waco, and in my estimation, David Koresh was that something. He saw himself as the reincarnation of King David (circa 1000 BC) and Cyrus the Great, a very strange mixture, to be sure, but one that makes sense if you wanted to portray yourself as the second coming of Christ. But does it stand up to astrological scrutiny?
Koresh’s birth chart was already on my astrology program. Cyrus the Great’s chart had been totally randomized by me, years ago, when the Evangelicals decided Trump was Cyrus II reborn.
When you look at Koresh’s three planets in Leo and compare them to Cyrus’ same ‘fatal’ planets in Sagittarius, you can see a pattern emerging. My incidental setting of Cyrus’ death Ascendant as conjunct Koresh’s Part of Fortune in Pisces may be a coincidence, but are there any coincidences, really?
Koresh’s Saturn is within 1° of Cyrus’ ‘fatal’ Mars, while Koresh’s natal Mars is opposite Cyrus’ ‘fatal’ Ascendant. And, finally, Koresh’s natal Jupiter (the earthly ruler) is conjunct Cyrus’ ‘fatal’ Part of Fortune.
Oh-oh. The US Supreme Court didn’t do its due diligence. A case brought before the court, which suggests that a person who has strong reasons for not wanting to build a website for a gay couple, who wish to get married, was being denied her 1st Amendment rights to free speech, has just had its false narrative exposed. Oops Supreme Courts do not ordinarily rule on hypotheticals. There has to be a direct loss for the person, persons or company bringing the case. This is definitely a Conservative conspiracy to pervert a state’s anti-discrimination laws.
So what will happen now to Lorie Smith and her 303 Creative win?
Up until this past week, the world saw this man as merely Putin’s puppet. Now, a new sense of awareness is coming. Alexander Lukashenko has risen to the challenge and seemingly pulled off the impossible: he saved Yevgeny Prigozhin’s life and shown Vladimir Putin to be much weaker than we thought possible.
But what do we really know about Lukashenko? Let’s look at his (rectified) birth chart, shall we?
I’m not sure what markers this rectification was based on, but I suspect it might have been the Yod pointing at the Midheaven. Those two inconjuncts may explain everything.
Moon Inconjunct Midheaven
With this aspect you must learn to make your emotional needs and desires for pleasure fit in with your growth and development in the world. It is possible that these problems could make it difficult for you to choose a profession or a course that would give your life a sense of purpose. Or you may be unable to follow one path consistently. In other words, your emotional needs may be in conflict with your long-range goals. You may know what you have to do, but not feel much like doing it. Or your feelings may actually color your perceptions so much that you really do not see what has to be done. Try not to form bad habits, because they are especially likely to create difficulties of this sort.
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 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 other people.
Hmm.
Hmm, again.
Here is How These Three Leaders are Connected (and Balanced)
I put Lukashenko’s chart in the middle between Putin’s and Prigozhin’s. It is a visual aid to see how Lukashenko is central to both parties. Consider this recent news item:
Now, on its own, this doesn’t sound like anything more than a threat against NATO. But, think about it: Belarus now has the means to threaten Russia, as well. It may not have been one of Putin’s smartest moves. Now, with the agreement (treaty) brokered by Lukashenko, Prigozhin has been ‘exiled’ to Belarus, where he could be a useful ally to Lukashenko. It could also be a launching point for Prigozhin to challenge Putin’s reign from a short distance away. If you watched the video from “Ellie Dreams Down Under” you will have seen that Putin is now weaker and Prigozhin is now stronger. Maybe that’s all he really wanted: to take over Putin’s ‘throne’ in the Kremlin. But he will need the support of the people of Russia to do so. And he will need to stay alive. Lukashenko has handed him that last option.
I will not be writing about this book, although it is tempting to do so: what I will be focusing on is the event that heralded in the Space Age: the detonation of the atomic bomb in 1945 in New Mexico.
I’m not sure how long ago I first looked at this chart, but it has resurfaced due to a YouTube video on the Gregg Braden Official account there. Here is the video:
What seems to be important here is the fact that this UFO crash happened just a month after that first detonation of an atomic bomb. Could our actions have set off a chain-reaction from other parts of space, or is the equipment found and recovered by the US military actually from the future? That question isn’t easily answered, but the information seems to suggest that latter response.
Looking at the chart, we are presented with an incident that has Saturn on the event horizon. That’s significant, at least to me. (As Oppenheimer suggested, his invention made him death, a destroyer of worlds.) The other conjunction to a Cancer Ascendant is the North Node: maybe this was humanity’s destiny. You can see why I find it interesting. If history was moving us to this point, we fully embraced it.
