I never thought I’d say this, but I was wrong. Gerry Stamford (the British Labour member) in her book is a composite of both Olof Palme and Andrew Peacock. In the TV miniseries, he was played by Charles Dance. Hence, the title…
I have just one post script: our mother thought that my daughter, Amy, was the spitting image of a young Shirley MacLaine. I always thought so, too.
I usually don’t look at Australian politicians, but I’ll make an exception for Andrew Peacock. And, by now, you know why: his association with Shirley MacLaine. What is interesting is the press decided that the British Labour leader in Ms. MacLaine’s book “Out On A Limb” was based on this man, but I suspect that, in reality, her time with him was way after the events of the book. Anyway, here’s his chart:
Peacock’s birth time is unknown so I have rectified his chart to represent the age (24) when he first married (Venus). That presents us with one inconjunct linking the Sun and Neptune. Hmm.
You can develop into a compassionate and understanding person who instinctively knows what others need and how to serve them. True selfless service to others, giving of yourself voluntarily rather than because you feel there is no choice, will make you feel good.
More intangibly, his personal warmth, intuitive intelligence, curiosity and urbanity brought a welcome dimension to Australian public life – one that is sadly absent during the current era of beige politicians.
Dating American actress Shirley MacLaine, hobnobbing with global socialite Ira von Furstenberg, being a regular at dinner parties in Bel-Air in Los Angeles and Palm Beach in Florida, may have been fodder for the gossip writers, and fed the resentment of drab political figures. But the Peacock ledger is more than balanced by his remarkable contribution.
At a personal level, a common refrain from those who knew him, including political opponents, was that Andrew Peacock made people feel good. He was an enlarger.
Financial Review
Well, astrologically, they are very well suited together.
Again, Ms. MacLaine’s Saturn (father figure) is within 3° of Peacock’s Sun. That would make him very attractive to her. His Saturn is conjunct her Mercury, while his Mercury is conjunct her North Node. Their communication level is very deep. Even that Neptune in his chart is within 7° of her Ascendant.
Hmm.
Check out their synastry:
Although at first glance, it would appear that nothing connects them, look again: Palme’s Venus (love interest) is conjunct Ms. MacLaine’s Saturn (father figure). Believe me, it’s enough to build a relationship on, even if only for a little while.
However, Ellie was right that Andrew Peacock was another politician that Shirley MacLaine had a secret relationship with. Obviously, she likes powerful men.
I suppose, at the back of our minds, we knew this already. But it has been brought to front of mind while reading “The Day After Roswell”. The tradeoff of alien technology to reverse-engineer weaponry is no surprise, but the United States has been at pains to keep their secrets exactly that: secret.
I won’t belabour the point, because everybody knows…
Everybody knows that the dice are loaded
Everybody Knows – Leonard Cohen (1988)
Everybody rolls with their fingers crossed
Everybody knows the war is over
Everybody knows the good guys lost
Everybody knows the fight was fixed
The poor stay poor, the rich get rich
That’s how it goes
Everybody knows
So true.
Shirley MacLaine has been on Ellie’s mind for a little while. So, she decided to do a Tarot reading about her. The full reading video follows:
As a lifelong follower of Ms. MacLaine, I can confirm that some of those ‘concerning’ cards are probably true, especially if she’s anxious to move forward into her next stage of life. So, I’m finally looking at her birth chart today.
This birth time is considered ‘excellent’. That means we can rely upon the double Yod pointing at her Virgo Ascendant. There is also an inconjunct linking Venus and Jupiter. (Four inconjuncts in total.)
This can be a positive aspect if you learn to control some of its negative possibilities. You are likely to lack energy and to be rather passive. You may wait for opportunities to come to you, rather than go after them. You may not have enough energy to pursue your ambitions, or you may not have much ambition. Or you may love your comfort so much that you are unwilling to make any effort or put up with any pain that could help you grow and develop. However, if there are any indications of energy in your chart [there are], they should overcome the passivity.
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.
On occasion this aspect indicates frail physical health, which can be corrected only by paying a great deal of attention to hygiene, personal health habits and proper diet. However, this aspect may also signify that you worry too much about your health. Try not to be so concerned about it unless a physician has diagnosed a definite problem.
Your need for freedom may interfere with your close relationships. When you are with others, even those you like, you feel very nervous but you can’t get up and leave because you want to be with them. This is typical of the ambiguity that comes with this transit. Certainly, the more others try to restrict your freedom of movement, the more you try to get away.
(To me, these aspects confirm what Ellie got in her Tarot card reading.)
Amen.
Those of us on this side of the Atlantic ocean might be hard pressed to know very much about this well-loved British broadcaster. Michael Parkinson, in the UK, was a household name. He died yesterday.
I used to watch him faithfully during the 22 years I was living in England. I admired his interviewing style. But he was known to get under the skin of some of his guests, especially Meg Ryan. Interesting.
Oops. He was a Companion of the British Empire, not a full-fledged Member as I’ve shown on his birth chart. This chart is rectified to the age (24) when he married (Venus) his wife. Otherwise, his birth time is unknown. So, the two inconjuncts (one each for the Sun and the Moon) are unreliable, as the aspects involve the Ascendant and the Midheaven. But what I wanted to share with you is the Saturn return as evidenced by combining his birth and death charts. (Please note that the time of his death is only listed as ‘last night’.)
Both charts show Saturn @ 4° Pisces. The only difference is that his ‘fatal’ Saturn is Retrograde. Hmm.
This is one of the most important times in your life. A major cycle of experience is closing, and great changes are about to take place. This is a time of endings and new beginnings.
For sure.
Rest in Peace, sir.
The USA has been under attack from within its borders for a very long time. Those of us who are old enough to recall the McCarthy “Witch Hunt” of the 1950’s will probably think that time is long gone.
But it isn’t.
Outside the Pentagon there was a battle starting up all over again set to rage just as it had during the Truman and Eisenhower presidencies. Whose intelligence was accurate? Whose was truthful? Who was trying to manipulate the White House and who believed that by coloring or twisting fact that he could change the course of history? John Kennedy was leading a young administration capable of making extraordinary mistakes. And there were people at the heart of his administration whose own views of how the world should work were inspiring them to distort facts, misstate intentions, and disregard obvious realities in the hope that their views would prevail. Worse, there were those, deep within a secret government within the government, who had been placed there by the spymasters at the Kremlin.
Birnes, William J.; Corso, Philip. The Day After Roswell (p. 51). Atria Books. Kindle Edition.
Philip Corso was writing about the early 1960’s. The implied threat of the Kennedy Administration culminated in JFK’s assassination, 2 months after he sought public cooperation with the Soviet’s in the Space Race (and other technologies).
The dream died on November 22, 1963.
You can read the reason for his assassination between the lines.
In 2016, Putin (and the Russian Communist Party) got his candidate elected, against all odds, to the Presidency of the United States. But when it came time to relinquish the position in early 2021, the lines of the conflict blurred: who were the patriots, who were the insurrectionists?
According to some sources, it (the UFO) was meant to go to a meeting for a cultural exchange near Socorro, to start the epic human journey to the planet Serpo in Zeta Reticuli. A police officer, named Lonnie Zamora, saw the craft and two E.T.s. They were lost…
I am not going to confirm or deny that this event actually happened. My purpose here is to see what the astrological aspects were on that fateful night for the policeman. Note that there is but one inconjunct.
This aspect means that your attitudes about love and affection are very idealistic, as will become clearer later in life. Also it can be a sign of creative artistic ability.

You can do your own research to accept or deny this secret project. Betty and Barney Hill’s abduction plays into this same narrative.
Hmm.

This may be the biggest of them all…
It really bears repeating that: “You can fool some of the people all of the time, you can fool all of the people some of the time, but you cannot fool all the people all the time.” Eventually, the truth will out.
Hmm.
It’s a strange process for sure: I ask who would be the modern equivalent of Benedict Arnold, and the first person who comes to mind is RFK Jr. Who would dare to suggest such a thing? Me.
Does it now seem possible?
I know that Steve Bannon is stirring the political pot, as usual, but this is what was reported yesterday:
Steve Bannon suggested Sunday that a presidential ticket with former President Trump (R) as president and Robert F. Kennedy Jr. (D) as vice president could result in “a massive landslide.”
Yahoo! News
This goes back to the echo of a Trump/John F Kennedy Jr prospect which QAnon suggested. Hmm.
