It was a rivalry that produced some of the best rock music in the middle to late 60’s, Some of the music became legendary. But it also cost Brian Wilson mentally, after he took LSD.
Hence the song, Brian Wilson, by the Barenaked Ladies:
This documentary chronicles the story. In real time, we were aware of the situation, but now that he’s dead, we can get the whole picture. Rest In Peace, Brian. Now you can sing harmonies with your brothers in a heavenly choir.
My daughter, Rosanna, remarked that she dislikes that so many celebrities have died recently. I was shocked when I researched their names. Although people like “Hulk” Hogan might grab the attention of people living south of the border, most would agree that Black Sabbath’s front man was the most famous, probably for all the wrong reasons.
This is the timing that most often is used by astrology websites to raise his birth chart, so I’m going with 6 am, as suggested. A couple of things stick out: Mars and Jupiter are 1° apart in Capricorn, both in opposition to Uranus in the last degree of Gemini; Pluto in Leo is square to his Scorpio Ascendant; and Saturn conjunct Midheaven in Virgo are square the Sun and Mercury conjunct in Sagittarius. There seems to be volatility everywhere.
I used 10 am for his time of passing. Appropriately, Mars and the South Node are conjunct the ‘fatal’ Virgo Ascendant. (That looks correct to me.) The ‘fatal’ Part of Fortune is conjunct Ozzy’s natal Pluto; the ‘fatal’ Moon is transiting his natal Uranus. It implies that he learned his lessons well.
I woke up this morning to this phrase running through my head. Why? Because I had a dream about cremations last night. It was disturbing due to the involvement of a dog (not Buddy). I feel haunted.
I’m not a super fan of Maggie Q, but this new Prime Video series shows her at her most thoughtful and sensitive. She is more than a fighting machine, here. But her vulnerability is also her strength.
I find it kind of quirky that a UK series, featuring a cop digging up old cold case files is called Dept. Q. Hmm. Is there some kind of synchronicity going on?
The ‘chickens coming home to roost’ comment is intentional. Several times toward the ending of season 1, Ballard and Parker seem to be congratulating themselves for putting the bad guy away. That’s hubris. No sooner do they relax than something else comes up, and it’s obvious that their work is never going to be done. That’s how you also get a cliffhanger final episode to carry the show into season 2.
And, just in case you’re interested, I already have a theory of whodunit.
O beautiful for halcyon skies, For amber waves of grain, For purple mountain majesties Above the enameled plain! America! America! God shed his grace on thee Till souls wax fair as earth and air And music-hearted sea!
O beautiful for pilgrim feet, Whose stern, impassioned stress A thoroughfare for freedom beat Across the wilderness! America! America! God shed his grace on thee Till paths be wrought through wilds of thought By pilgrim foot and knee!
O beautiful for glory-tale Of liberating strife, When once and twice, for man’s avail, Men lavished precious life! America! America! God shed his grace on thee Till selfish gain no longer stain The banner of the free!
O beautiful for patriot dream That sees beyond the years Thine alabaster cities gleam Undimmed by human tears! America! America! God shed his grace on thee, Till nobler men keep once again Thy whiter jubilee!
