Vulnerable: There Was No Plan B

Rogers’ Outage (July 8, 2022)

You may or may not have noticed my absence yesterday. We had no internet, no TV and no mobile phone service. In other words, I was completely cut off from the rest of the world. Fortunately, Susan’s mobile provider is Virgin, so we still had one way of contacting others. But that was limited to her data usage.

And there was no way to be able to buy food or gas or transfer funds, since the Rogers network being down affected banking and Interac services. People are wondering if the system was hacked…

One of the advantages to being an astrologer is the ability to look behind the scenes and see what is really going on. When the internet usage dropped off totally @ 4:30 am ET, there was one inconjunct:

Pluto Inconjunct Ascendant

This can be an indication that through experiences with others, you will be forced to undergo many significant changes in life. At times the crises may be quite unpleasant, but for the most part the results will be very positive, although for some people, they may be less constructive. But you must be very careful about the kind of people you get involved with. Choose your friends with great care and try to find people who have a healthy outlook on life and who seem reasonably well balanced. People who are driven to extreme behavior or who act compulsively, as if they could not plan anything in advance, are not very good for you. They will get you into difficult situations that you do not need.

(There, is that clear? Someone had brought the whole system down.)

It was about 8 am today when my mobile phone started working again, and it was about 1 pm that the internet came back online. I don’t like feeling that vulnerable.

Let’s hope that Rogers starts working on a Plan B to avoid this ever happening again.

This Cold Case Will Make Your Blood Run Cold

Girl in the Picture (2022)

Netflix

On a whim, we watched this Netflix documentary last night. I’m not sure if we should have, because it figured in my dreams last night. How depraved can one man be?

“If you could read my mind, love, what a tale my thoughts would tell…”

There is nothing factual about this birth chart. There is a glimpse of Suzanne Sevakis’ birth certificate about three-quarters of the way through this film. I revisited the image this morning and couldn’t ascertain where in Michigan Suzanne was born, or what time of day. St. Mary’s Hospital is named, but that could be in Saginaw, Grand Rapids, or Livonia. There used to be a St. Mary’s Hospital in Detroit, but by 1969 its name had been changed. And I have rectified her birth time to show Mars at 20 years old when she died. It shows her also losing her mother when young (Moon on the cusp of the 4th House). Her biological father is shown to be gone before she was born (Saturn in the 11th House). She was ripe for the picking by her stepfather, abductor, and later husband. (You’ll have to watch the film to get this.)

Jupiter Inconjunct Saturn

This aspect may signify great restlessness and unease, so that it is difficult for you to achieve a state of balance or feel calm and at ease. Often you have contradictory impulses; you want to plunge ahead into some relatively risky activity, but you are held back by feelings of caution or inhibition. It is often difficult to decide whether you want to act on your own or in a situation that is very structured and regulated. If your situation is too structured, you will feel closed in and repressed; you will want to break free and go off by yourself and do things your way. But when you get that freedom, you feel rather lost and at loose ends, and you find it difficult to set your own pace.

(Since the other two inconjuncts are based on a spurious time of birth, I won’t delineate them here.)

Rest in Peace, Suzanne Sevakis (September 9, 1969 – April 30, 1990).

Has Trump Been Painted into a Corner?

2024 Presidential Run?

Before we move forward with this thought, let’s look back at what I wrote on August 11, 2021:

About six months before the 2020 Presidential election, I predicted a win for the Biden/Harris ticket on the basis of their combined Moons being conjunct to the next administration’s Moon. Well, the Moon figures here, too. When Pluto returns, the Moon will be @ 24° Sagittarius 56′ in the 1st House of the USA chart. It’s important to remember that the Moon represents the popular vote. In this combined chart (above) Saturn is transiting the USA’s natal Moon. And an interactive Yod is pointing at the ‘event’ Saturn, from inconjuncts to the natal Mercury and Neptune. That represents hidden agendas and propaganda. (Flash: is this when Trump announces his intention to run for President again?) It’s a ‘cat among the pigeons’ time. All this while Venus is transiting the natal Mars position in the USA 7th House (of open enemies).

Sufficient Unto the Day is the Evil Thereof

News sources are suggesting that Donald Trump may tip his hand early to distract attention away from the January 6th Select Committee hearings. The seventh hearing is scheduled for next Tuesday, July 12th @ 10:00 am. Could the timing be any better?

Remember what I said (in the quote above) about the Moon representing the popular vote? Trump’s Moon and South Node are about 4° from the ‘event’ Moon’s position of 24° Sagittarius 56′. The ‘event’ Moon is about 5° from Liz Cheney’s Moon. Are we going to have a ‘gunfight at the OK Corral‘? (Funny how I hadn’t noticed this before.) I’ve already commented on Ms. Cheney being a straight shooter

Need I say anything more?

This Suspect is a.k.a. Awake the Rapper

Robert E Crimo III (September 20, 2000)

I usually don ‘t intend to publicize the main ‘suspect’ of a mass shooting incident. For some reason, this one is different. Has he been set up? He has a record…of rap songs. Would that qualify as a rap sheet?

This chart is randomized. Interestingly, Saturn (the planet of restriction) is situated at his present age, 21. If the time is right, Pluto would be in his 1st House, conjunct his Sagittarius Ascendant. Hmm.

There is one inconjunct:

Mars Inconjunct Neptune

With this aspect you must learn to stand up for yourself and demand your rights forthrightly and directly. Often you feel that you don’t have enough energy to assert yourself or that any such effort would be futile. Unfortunately, some people with this aspect learn to work behind the scenes or dishonestly. Others simply give up or take a defeatist attitude toward life.

Yesterday’s Event

Here’s what we know so far.

A person of interest has been arrested in connection to a shooting at a Fourth of July parade in the Chicago-area suburb of Highland Park, Illinois, on Monday that killed six people and wounded at least 30 others.

Global News

This is the reported time of the first shots being fired. The Moon may have had something to do with it, since it is in the 1st House and conjunct the Virgo Ascendant. Jupiter is inconjunct that Ascendant, while Mercury is inconjunct Pluto. This has the makings of a violent crime (Crimo?), for sure.

Here are the two charts together. In my humble opinion, Awake the Rapper decided to wake up the people of his sleepy community. Did he not know that leaving behind a high-powered rifle would point law enforcement personnel directly at him? They even had his car plates on television yesterday afternoon. He was not going to escape the consequences, no matter what he did. So, I have to ask again:

Was he set up?

Was This Al Jazeera Journalist Targeted by the IDF?

Shireen Abu Akleh (April 3, 1971 – May 11, 2022)

There is a lot of hype surrounding the death of Shireen Abu Akleh: was she purposely assassinated or just accidently shot in the crossfire that day? What we now know is that it was an Israeli bullet that killed her, but the rest of the details are inconclusive. I wonder if astrology can solve the mystery…

This is the ‘exact’ moment that she was hit, according to her Al Jazeera crew. That means it will reveal something of the nature of the deed: that Pluto on the Descendant, for example. This is no accident.

Pluto Opposition Ascendant

Your interactions with others are very intense and will cause changes in your life and the lives of those you are close to.

Warning: the images in this video are graphic in nature:

But will there be any repercussions? I doubt it…

That’s the Person to Whom Liz Cheney is Connected…

Joanna of Brabant (June 24, 1322 – December 1, 1406)

Looks nothing like her, eh? Using the Neptune/South Node positions in Scorpio, I ascertained that the dates 1383 – 1406 AD would be important for the past life of Liz Cheney. When I Googled those dates, this individual was highlighted. Her second husband, Wenceslas, Duke of Brabant died in 1383, she died in 1406. You can’t get it any clearer than that.

There is no record of Joanna’s birth time, so I randomized it. The Ascendant and Midheaven positions may be completely spurious, but for our purposes completely accidental. There are two interactive Yods pointing at Saturn @ 13° Taurus and Neptune @ 13° Sagittarius. Hmm. The timing may be correct after all. And the position of Mars @ 23° Scorpio may also be significant, when compared with Liz Cheney’s birth chart.

The clincher for me is Joanna’s natal North Node within 1° of Ms. Cheney’s Moon. This is suggestive of why Ms. Cheney is so needing to speak truth to power in the present age. But does any of it matter? Maybe.

Note the term ‘politician’. Once a politician, always a politician?

She’s a Straight Shooter: No Hidden Agenda

Liz Cheney (July 28, 1966)

Liz Cheney is the Republican Co-chair of the January 6th Select Committee. She and Adam Kinzinger are the only two individuals representing the GOP during its deliberations and hearings. They’re considered traitors in Trump World. She may not win her party’s primary for her seat in Wyoming this year, in which case she would be free to run for President in 2024, to help block Donald Trump from running. I suspect Democrats would vote for her, especially if they don’t like their own candidate.

The timing of this chart is considered ‘excellent’. As usual, three minutes to midnight is cutting it a little close, but I haven’t seen her birth certificate, so I cannot disagree. There are NO inconjuncts.

There are, however, three especially close conjunctions:

Sun Conjunct Mercury

Your mind may or may not be fast, but it is working constantly. You have a great need to express your opinions, and you can’t stand it when people don’t take your ideas seriously. On the other hand, you probably take time to organize your ideas so that others will be forced to take you seriously, because what you say makes sense.

Venus Conjunct Mars

Sometimes you may be unsure whether to assert yourself, give way to the other person’s demands, or compromise, although that can be the most difficult choice of the three. Much of the time you may be very demanding of those you love, insisting that they give you, and you alone, a great deal of love and attention. But when you realize that your demands will probably drive the other person away, you will give in.

Uranus Conjunct Pluto (1965)

This aspect undoubtedly signifies a generation of children who will have very powerful effects upon the rest of the culture, for they will be revolutionaries in the truest sense. They will be very eager and restless for change, but at the same time patient enough to learn how to really bring it about. They will undoubtedly have a very powerful impact on everyone in society.

There is also a close conjunction between the South Node and Neptune in Scorpio, which may give us a clue about a past life connection. I can only wonder, for the moment, what that entails. However, the straight shooter designation comes from Ms. Cheney’s Moon being in the final degree of Sagittarius.

Moon in Sagittarius

You are an idealist who wants the world to be grand and good and beautiful. You want people to be good and noble and are very disappointed when they are not. Unless you learn to take people as they come, you will always be disappointed.

“…to testify untruthfully…”

What Happens When You’ve Been Bought Off?

Mark Meadows (July 28, 1959)

I’m not suggesting that Donald Trump has bribed Mark Meadows to stay silent, but it sure looks that way, doesn’t it? That’s what a million dollar donation can do.

That Cosmic Cross aspect linking the Sun, the Moon, Neptune and the Midheaven shows that Meadows is stuck with his situation. The timing of his birth chart is considered excellent. There is one inconjunct.

Sun Inconjunct Saturn

You will have to learn the difference between having self-control and discipline, on the one hand, and totally denying yourself any self-expression, on the other. This aspect can mean that you feel extremely unworthy, which undermines your self-confidence and makes it hard to face obstacles in life with confidence and determination.

You may even feel that persons, forces or circumstances are conspiring to prevent you from doing what you want. You may be limited by fear or by the belief that you don’t deserve to get what you want. With this aspect there is a danger that your frustrated energies will turn into physical ailments that further limit your freedom of action.

Sometimes you may be afraid to get the freedom to do what you want, for the rigid structure and rules that you are forced to live under seem to give you a feeling of security. At the same time, however, part of you does want to be free.

Instead, Mark Meadows has been put out to pasture.

How to Update the Defense Lawyer Stereotype

The Lincoln Lawyer (2022)

We’ve been watching this for the past three nights on Netflix. About halfway through the 10 episode season one, I realized that this is a revamped Perry Mason series. Only, instead of only one client at a time, Mickey Haller has two or three on the go in each episode. That makes for a breathtaking ride.

And for those that might accidently start to watch this series, here’s a visual aid of the relationships:

I hope you enjoy the program.

They Hope He’s the John Dean of Trump’s White House

Pat Cipollone (May 6, 1966)

Did you know that Pat Cipollone’s surname means “pocket watch” in Italian? I hope he’s been keeping time with it. The January 6th Select Committee would like to hear from him, about his days at the White House, and especially the days leading up to the Storming of the Capitol. But will he testify or just defy (justify) them?

I randomized his birth time, just to see what would pop out at me. Hmm. That Uranus/Pluto conjunction inconjunct the Midheaven may not be accurate, but it sure is interesting, is it not?

Uranus Conjunct Pluto (1965)

This aspect undoubtedly signifies a generation of children who will have very powerful effects on the rest of the culture, for they will be revolutionaries in the truest sense. They will be very eager and restless for change, but at the same time patient enough to learn how to bring it about. They will undoubtedly have a very powerful impact on everyone in society. The parents of these children must be patient and instill in them a real respect for human values. There is the danger that some of them could be absolutely ruthless in their desire for change.

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.

Pluto Inconjunct Midheaven

You may have trouble with older people who try to teach you how to effectively take control of your life. Even while you are young, you may resent their control over you and resist everything they are trying to teach you. To a great extent, your path in life will be shaped by your early confrontations with authority figures.

Another problem that can arise if you are not treated properly is that you may withdraw into yourself and become very secretive, as though you have something to hide even when you don’t. This can make people distrust you.

(I don’t need to remind you that these last two descriptions may not apply if the birth time is different.)

So, will he or won’t he testify? Only the time on his pocket watch will tell.
