It’s something that my wife’s son-in-law says in greeting me. It always strikes me as strange, but then I think about it, and he’s quite right to ask it of me, in the way he does.
I am not Chris, except when I’m in this body. If he had asked, “How are you, today?” then I could answer from my spirit, and not my body. Interesting, eh?
I didn’t go looking for Abigail Adams (née Smith). I was researching Joe Kennedy Jr’s prior life, but then I found this page. Again we must thank Kevin Ryerson’s Ahtum Re for the information, which has been written down by the present-day reincarnation of John Adams, her husband.
I suspect I shall need to read this book to further make startling connections.
Of course, Madam Adams birth time is unknown, so I rectified the chart to align her Mars to the age she married John Adams (20). There are no inconjuncts, but that (late) 8th House Sun in the early degrees of Sagittarius does gives us a clue about her ability to communicate her ‘truth’ as she saw it during the years she was in the President’s House in Philadelphia.
I set this clock for 12 noon, as the usual response to an unknown time of death. What I see is some unfinished business and an inconjunct linking Mercury to Pluto, a sign of future endeavours, I suspect.
As you know I have already written about Marianne Williamson (twice), but I had no idea she might be an American revolutionary who has returned to finish the job. That’s what Walter Semkiw MD discovered. This image appears in the Reincarnation Research post:
The premise that an individual returns with a very similar look seems to be bourne out here. There was also a discussion about these two women’s handwriting being identical. We have seen that before, too.
By now, if you’ve been following my posts for the past few years, you can see these connections between past lives and present ones quite easily. Williamson’s Sun is almost exactly conjunct Adams’ natal Neptune and Adams’ ‘fatal’ Sun is just over 1° from Williamson’s Mars. Is it enough to prove reincarnation? I think so. Adams’ natal Mercury/Pluto conjunction in Scorpio shows that her fatal inconjunct between them would have been significant. She’d planted the seed of her future growth very deeply and was just waiting for the right conditions to make her move:
(And, please don’t laugh, Abigail’s father’s first name was William, and she could be considered equivalent to his son: William’s son…)
I’ve touched on this individual previously, and then deleted the posts associated with him after a falling out with the person who suggested the reincarnational link. Well, with Robert Kennedy Jr seeking the Democrat Presidential nomination for 2024, I thought it might be time to revisit this.
That’s a very heavy 10th House load of planets and lights. He was destined to be a shiny star in public life. The Universe had different thoughts, obviously. There is one inconjunct, one we’ve seen before.
Your mind moves quickly from topic to topic, often without pausing long enough for you to understand what you have learned. And if there is a lot of excitement or activity around you, your mind may race to keep up with it all that you work yourself into a state of nervous frenzy. Under these circumstances it is almost impossible for you to concentrate or do any useful mental work.
As you get older, you will have to learn to discipline your mind so that you can think things through. It’s all right to be somewhat restless, but you must learn to stay put during school and at other times when it is important to concentrate.
I suspect that he would have been a very miserable U.S. President if he’s lived that long.
Again, his death chart shows an overload of planets in one House, this time the 8th (Death). There are three inconjuncts, one of which links the restless planet (Uranus) with the Midheaven. The other two form a Yod pointing at the Ascendant (from the Moon and Pluto). That’s why I think his death was fated.
If he were to reincarnate, who would he come back as?
This is the leap of faith, the one suggested to me by someone who lives in Israel. Benny Gantz is involved in Israeli politics, after serving in the military. But what do we really know about him?
Because this birth chart is set for 12 noon, as no one knows what time he was born, I will only delineate the inconjuncts that are not time dependent, which are three out of the four indicated.
You like to think big, and you have great ambitions, but you don’t always make sure that your thinking is clear or careful. When you make any kind of plan, be careful. Don’t try to take on more than you can handle and make sure not to overlook details, for that could hurt what you are trying to do. Careful planning will help you develop disciplined habits in other areas as well. This aspect can mean that you are sloppy in your personal appearance and in your work habits.
This aspect means that your family may make you feel that you are unworthy of love. Unless you are given a great deal of love while you are young, you will be attracted to cold and unfeeling people when you are an adult. Such people are an outward expression of your inner feeling of unworthiness. Even without any pressure, you are likely to be more disciplined than most people your age. You don’t go overboard in anything, and you feel strongly that your worth depends on what you do and how much you accomplish.
On the positive side, this aspect can mean that you control your aggressions and energies so that they work out constructively. But make sure that you do work out your aggression instead of keeping it hidden, because that can result in sudden outbursts of temper, which may work against you. Also, if you repress these energies, they may turn against you and be expressed as illness or accidents.
I probably don’t need to remind you that a Venus/Mars conjunction (especially in Leo) can signify a love/hate relationship with his associations and groups (11th House). Something to watch out for.
With the benefit of hours and hours of research and 20/20 hindsight, I would suggest not. That conjunction between Gantz’ Ascendant and Joe’s fatal Mars is accidental, since I don’t have Gantz’ correct birthtime. Even the North/South Nodes in Gantz’ chart seem to miss their marks. Only Gantz’ natal Saturn seems to be close to Joe’s fatal Ascendant but misses by more than 3°.
Conclusion: they were both military men, and they had asperations of ruling their respective countries, but that’s about it. I won’t be bamboozled again.
Crime doesn’t pay, or does it? By the time I finished reading this novel, I was totally fed up with the concept that if ‘someone’ in government makes a mistake, his errors can be erased, papered over or (hopefully) expunged by all sorts of other crimes being committed on his behalf. But we are talking about an American Presidential election. And the prescience shown by John Grisham in this novel published one year before 9-11 is staggering. It reminded me that public fears have to be stoked, especially in an election year, before people will get out to cast their vote.
They call themselves the Brethren: three disgraced former judges doing time in a Florida federal prison. One was sent up for tax evasion. Another, for skimming bingo profits. The third for a career-ending drunken joyride.
Meeting daily in the prison law library, taking exercise walks in their boxer shorts, these judges-turned-felons can reminisce about old court cases, dispense a little jailhouse justice, and contemplate where their lives went wrong. Or they can use their time in prison to get very rich—very fast. …
Goodreads
The scam they thought up involved enticing correspondence from middle-age men who are hidden in their ‘closets’, and then extorting them by threatening to reveal their secret lives. Not an edifying subject matter, for sure. But this is similar to the phishing emails that have become everyday occurrences these days. There’s such a rich world to steal from, scammers seemingly can’t help themselves.
So, my question is: has John Grisham been a victim of one of these extortions?
Appearances can be deceiving, so I’m going to probe a little deeper with astrology.
This chart is rectified to reflect the age (26) when Grisham married his wife (Venus). Two inconjuncts.
This aspect has possibilities for positive and helpful energy. You may be a very optimistic person who helps people in need at the critical moment. If so, others will help you when you need it. If you can control yourself and keep from going overboard, you will find that you can be quite lucky. But don’t assume that luck will always carry you through. Work as hard as you can to get what you want and act fairly and honestly with others, the the luck will be there.
As you get older, you will have to learn to discipline your mind so that you can think things through. It’s alright to be somewhat restless, but you must learn to stay put during school and at other times when it is important to concentrate. On the other hand, you are quite inventive. You can see solutions to problems quicker than most, and you may be good at designing. Model building and other activities that develop your design sense and ability to see in three dimensions would be very useful.
Now I have a much clearer picture of the man: he was only working through a couple of big ‘what if’ scenarios, just to see what might have happened if: 1) he was selected to run as his party’s Presidential candidate; and 2) he had a momentary misstep along the way. His feet in both camps of the Law and the Government gives him an insight into what goes on behind the scenes. That makes sense of this book.
In an October 2006 interview on the Charlie Rose show, Grisham stated that he usually takes only six months to write a book, and his favorite author is John le Carré.
Wikipedia
OK. His writing reminded me of John le Carré’s spy novels. Only difference, Grisham’s stories tend to work out for the best for everyone. Now I know why.
It might seem self-evident to some, but for as long as I’ve lived this life, I presumed that Golgotha was so named because of the skeletons of those who were crucified, but not buried. A visit to Jerusalem would have corrected my thinking.
In the standard Koine Greek texts of the New Testament, the relevant terms appear as Golgothâ (Γολγοθᾶ),Golgathân (Γολγοθᾶν),kraníou tópos (κρανίου τόπος),Kraníou tópos (Κρανίου τόπος),Kraníon (Κρανίον), and Kraníou tópon (Κρανίου τόπον). Golgotha’s Hebrew equivalent would be Gulgōleṯ (גֻּלְגֹּלֶת, “skull”), ultimately from the verb galal (גלל) meaning “to roll”. The form preserved in the Greek text, however, is actually closer to Aramaic Golgolta, which also appears in reference to a head count in the Samaritan version of Numbers 1:18, although the term is traditionally considered to derive from Syriac Gāgūlṯā (ܓܓܘܠܬܐ) instead. Although Latin calvaria can mean either “a skull” or “the skull” depending on context and numerous English translations render the relevant passages “place of the skull” or “Place of the Skull”, the Greek forms of the name grammatically refer to the place of a skull and a place named Skull. (The Greek word κρᾱνῐ́ον does more specifically mean the cranium, the upper part of the skull, but it has been used metonymously since antiquity to refer to skulls and heads more generally.)
Wikipedia
Each Gospel writer refers to the place where Jesus was crucified as Golgotha (in the King James Version), and yet in my mind, this was just a place somewhere outside the city of Jerusalem’s walls.
The image of a skull is clear, if you know what you’re looking for.
This older image which I captured from a YouTube video, yesterday, may make the spot look clearer.
Crucifixions would have taken place on top of the hill above the Skull. So, the Gospel story IS true.
I know that it’s a long shot, but I haven’t been working with reincarnational charts for all this time for nothing. Sathya Sai Baba considered himself to be the reincarnation of Shirdi Sai Baba, a Hindu/Muslim hybrid guru who is thought to be a saint in India.
I set the clock for noon local time, so whatever that means will be revealed by a comparison with Sathya Sai Baba’s birth chart. The only inconjunct here is time dependent, so I shouldn’t hold my breath.
Oh, *snap*! The South Node in Sathya’s birth chart is conjunct the Ascendant in Shirdi’s death chart. Even accidently, this is fortuitous. Other direct links are visible, too. This looks to be the real deal.
OK. That’s enough for now.
Yesterday, when I wrote about his miraculous blending of two images (one of which was the Shroud of Turin), I hadn’t realized that it was the 12th anniversary of Sai Baba‘s death. How’s that for synchronicity?
I suspect that his birth chart is timed for sunrise, and yet, that Saturn conjunction to the Sun, Venus and the Ascendant @ 29° Scorpio is very auspicious. There are two inconjuncts unrelated to a correct birth time.
You often find it difficult to separate yourself from what you believe. You fight very hard for your ideas, even when you suspect you are wrong. You must learn that you are not your ideas, that you have them but are not them. If you do not learn this, it will be difficult even to have a friendly talk with friends, because you are always trying to make a point, defend your opinion or prove somebody else wrong. This also makes you irritable and touchy, so that others prefer not to be around you. Of course, you should not give in about something you serious believe in, but it is unlikely that you would make that mistake.
This aspect indicates a generation that had mixed feelings about its ideals and how to implement them. They often felt very confused about their ideals, and when they found that their ideals failed because they were badly formulated, this group became disillusioned. Sates of consciousness beyond the ordinary are very confusing to them, and they prefer not to get involved with such matters.
(Sounds contradictory, doesn’t it?)
This discussion has been going on since 1354 AD. And in recent days, several YouTube videos have stated that the atheist scientists were wrong in the carbon dating of October 1978, suggesting that the snippets of cloth that were tested came from a part of the Shroud that was a later addition (i.e. repair).
I should be very surprised if this length of cloth, considered a holy relic by the Roman Catholic Church, was the actual burial cloth of Jesus. One of the quotations listed by a video states that ‘the other disciple’ noted that the head napkin was sitting folded up to one side of Jesus’ burial place, away from the cloth. Hmm.
6 Then cometh Simon Peter following him, and went into the sepulchre, and seeth the linen clothes lie,
7 And the napkin, that was about his head, not lying with the linen clothes, but wrapped together in a place by itself.
John 30:6-7 KJV
This should put paid to the idea that the Shroud is Jesus’ burial cloth, but then a niggling thought occurs: could this be proof that the napkin that should have been around his head was removed before he resurrected? See what I mean? This could never be absolutely proven scientifically, and will always be a question of faith, only.
I have on my bookcase an image that was given to me years ago by Mowenna Lloyd. There are stories that this image was created by Sai Baba, using his mind to superimpose a picture of Jesus onto the photo of the the head from the Shroud. If it is true, this is the ‘real’ miracle.
What do you think?
Now, you knew I couldn’t let this rest until I’d looked at this dog astrologically.
His birth chart is randomized. I was really wanting to see if there were any inconjuncts not dependent on a correct time. There is one, but the accidental opposition of his natal Pluto and his Ascendant is what stands out for me. However, I digress.
This energy may be expressed as a hot temper, especially when you have to endure restriction or limitation. You have a rebellious streak that needs to be disciplined, because everyone has to endure some restrictions, and it takes so little to trigger your temper. Sometimes you may make sudden moves that startle people. You may make a decision very quickly and start to act on it immediately, but that is not such a good idea. Make up your mind more slowly, or at least wait for a while until you start to act. If your idea still looks good a couple of days later, it is probably all right to go ahead with it.
(Nine years, nine months and fifteen days is definitely patient earned and learned.)
Every close relationship will teach you something about yourself and give you increased self-understanding. Your relationship have an emotional intensity that you may not be aware of now, but later on you will seek it.
(Ditto)
Going by the film, it would seem like our little furry friend died a couple of hours after waiting yet again for the 5 o’clock train, so I set the time of his death at 7 pm. That ‘accidental’ Yod pointing at the fatal Ascendant of 4° Libra (balance) speaks loudly to me. The inconjuncts come from the Moon (emotions) and Saturn (patience). The only other inconjunct links Venus (love) and Neptune (mystery).
The film has a spiritual overtone that makes perfect sense. When he died he finally saw his master coming through the door of the train station. Now they could be reunited for all eternity. (Boo-hoo.)
I should have known better: with BeBe’s current state of health (and mind), this little film was going to break my heart. I blubbered a lot of tears.
In October 2009, Christopher Lloyd of the Sarasota Herald Tribune gave the film 4 out of 5 stars, noting: “Hachi: A Dog’s Tale is unapologetically a tear-jerker. You might resent being emotionally manipulated by this film, but I challenge even the most hard-hearted moviegoer not to spill some saltwater while watching it.”
Wikipedia
The movie was based on the real Japanese Akita dog Hachikō, who was born in Ōdate, Japan, in 1923. After the death of his owner, Ueno Hidesaburō in 1925, Hachikō returned to the Shibuya train station the next day and every day after that for the next nine years until he died in March 1935. A bronze statue of Hachikō is in front of the Shibuya train station in his honor, in the spot where he waited. Hachikō is known in Japanese as chūken Hachikō (忠犬ハチ公) “faithful dog Hachikō”, hachi meaning “eight” and kō meaning “affection.”

Watch this film on Netflix at your peril. It will break your heart.
