I was alerted to this Catholic Saint by a YouTube video today.
This timing was noted on her birth certificate. There is one inconjunct, only.
Mercury Inconjunct Ascendant
You are likely to have some problems, but not serious ones, in communicating with others. The problems is that people’s first impression of you may not fit with what you say or your manner of thinking and speaking. People tend to hear what they expect to hear, and they may not listen to you as carefully as they should. So you will have to be as clear as possible and insist that others listen to what you are really saying. If others do not understand you, it is up to you to set them straight.

The Vision of Jesus Christ (February 22, 1931)
This timing could be earlier or later, but 8:30 pm was the time I was given. Mercury is now inconjunct Pluto. Wow.
Kowalska wrote that on the night of Sunday, 22 February 1931, while she was in her cell in Płock, Jesus appeared wearing a white garment with red and pale rays emanating from his heart. In her diary (Notebook I, Items 47 and 48), she wrote that Jesus told her:
Paint an image according to the pattern you see, with the signature: “Jesus, I trust in You” (in Polish: “Jezu, ufam Tobie”). I desire that this image be venerated, first in your chapel, and then throughout the world. I promise that the soul that will venerate this image will not perish.
Not knowing how to paint, Kowalska approached some other nuns at the convent in Płock for help, but she received no assistance. Three years later, after her assignment to Vilnius, the first artistic rendering of the image was produced under her direction.

The Vision’s Midheaven/Jupiter conjunction is also conjunct to Faustina’s natal Neptune. The Vision’s Neptune is conjunct Faustina’s natal Sun. This is essentially a spiritual event to pass on a message from Christ to his Church. Here is the finished product:
Unfortunately, wishing for something different doesn’t make it so.
Those on the Left of the political divide now know what it feels like when their candidate doesn’t win the Presidential Election. In place of any physical proof that someone or another ‘cheated’, there are a lot of alternative reasons as to how this will still turn out to be a win for the Democrats. Conspiracy theories aren’t the purview of the liberal mind, so that is why I’ve called it “wishful thinking”.
Will the anti-MAGA Left storm the Capitol on January 6th? No. But there is still a small hope that something ‘otherworldly’ will take place before then. OK, folks, let’s be real: if you want to preserve Democracy, as practiced in the United States of America, Trump should become president #47 on January 20th. Only Divine Intervention could stop it. Is that what you really, really want? Really?
This book was a surprise Christmas gift from my wife, Susan. She said that she was drawn to it when looking at a used book stand at a Christmas market. I don’t think she could have picked a better book.
I set the clock for a few minutes after midnight. Any later and the inconjunct linking the Moon and Uranus would have been lost. I suspect this aspect would have tickled George’s sense of humour.
Moon Inconjunct Uranus
With this aspect you must learn to control sudden outbursts of emotion that occur at difficult times when you least expect it. Also your present home life may not be a stable situation in which you can grow up emotionally secure and confident. A particular incident when you were very young may have given you the feeling that you can’t count on anything or anyone for support. Later in life, you may try very hard to get away from anything that reminds you of your earliest childhood, even if your childhood has not been difficult. You just feel that you have to get away and go somewhere else.

See what I mean? Because J.M. Barrie had this same aspect in his birth chart, it made me wonder if they were linked. However, George Carlin was born five weeks before J.M. Barrie died.
It made me also wonder if this autobiographical, but posthumous, book may have really encapsulated his entire life’s story. I guess I’ll find out once I start reading it.
The strongest line-ups between these two charts connect to the Last Words’ North and South Nodes: they align to Carlin’s natal Jupiter/Pluto opposition. That totally makes sense, at least to me. He had some final thoughts that he wanted to share with the world, and as always they would be dynamic.
I suppose it’s cheeky to associated the subtitle of his greatest play, “Peter Pan” with the playwright, himself, but somehow just looking at his portrait, above, the child is still in there.
Having never looked at his birth chart before, I missed an important aspect: the Moon is in opposition to Venus which is conjunct his Cancer Ascendant. That would explain Peter’s fascination for Wendy in the play. It’s love, but not romantic love: it’s essentially the search for a missing mother. Barrie’s a lost boy.
There are three inconjuncts.
Moon Inconjunct Uranus
Your relationship with your mother may be rather unstable. She may be very involved in her own interests, which prevent her from being as close to you as she would be otherwise. She may be an unconventional person, a real free spirit. The problem is that your feelings about her are mixed, both loving and unloving. You may secretly resent her. Probably you don’t feel that you can express this consciously, but it could come out when you are angry or upset. Certainly this will result in not wanting to form close relationships with other people, especially women. And the people you do choose as close friends are likely to be exciting and different from anyone you have known in the past. However, they may also be rather upsetting.
Planets in Youth (page 131) by Robert Hand (1977)
Mars Inconjunct Saturn
This can be a difficult aspect because it signifies a conflict between your sense of responsibility and your desire to fulfill your own needs and do what you want. This leads to a struggle within you that may keep you from acting decisively. Instead of deciding what you will do, you feel caught between these two forces, wondering whether you have the right to do what you want. You may feel that others are trying to frustrate you, but it is only your own indecisiveness that is causing the trouble. Sometimes this conflict makes you very irritable and resentful about nothing in particular. Then, when someone happens to act in a way that is absolutely annoying, you focus all your built-up anger on that person.
Ibid (pages 230-231)
Jupiter Inconjunct Midheaven
This aspect can mean that you have mixed feelings towards adults and persons in authority over you. Although you know that they have your best interests at heart and that they want you to succeed at their own objectives, it often seems as if their demands are keeping you from doing what you want. When you want to go off and have fun, for example, you are told to finish your work first. At times you want to break free of this restricting influence and go off by yourself.
Ibid (page 278)
So, my instincts are correct: he is a lost boy, but not just from his mother but also his father. Wendy and Captain Hook help Peter Pan to find a balance between their parental influences. Is the play biographical? How could it not be?
On this day in 1904, Scottish novelist and playwright Sir J.M. Barrie’s play Peter Pan; or, the Boy Who Wouldn’t Grow Up premieres at the Duke of York’s Theatre in London.
The first thing I noticed about this chart is that there are no inconjuncts, so no hidden agendas. The oppositions form a six-pointed star. Perhaps that’s why the story has been so long-lasting in the public’s imagination.
This chart represents Barrie’s greatest hit:
Do you see how Barrie’s struggles get resolved in the premiere of his play? There are no accidents.
It’s not fun to mock the afflicted, but this film looks to see what would happen if a child misspelled Santa because of dyslexia. It’s essentially Faust in disguise. This time goodness wins through.
If I’m going to be honest, this film bothered me, until I saw Karen’s resemblance to Scrooge. That’s when the title finally made sense. So this is one Dickens of a storyline brought completely up to the present time. The ‘ghosts’ had very clever gimmicks to allow Karen glimpses into the past, present and future. Her metamorphosis was completely understandable for a modern miser. It was worth it all.
According to the meta detail this photo was taken at 6:44 pm, just moments before we saw a flash in the sky toward Barrie. Evidently, there was a blue flash before the power outage. Hmm.
And, really, who wouldn’t love London at this time of year? Because spy movies tend to be filmed and shown in summer, this one makes a change. Also, the cross-pollination of world politics, London gangsters and undercover operatives gives this a real life feel to it. But I’m aware that it’s pure fantasy.
Just remember: “When a door closes, a window opens.”
I guess they call it hubris: Justin Trudeau claims to be a feminist, and yet time and time again he shows himself to be anything but a feminist. He should also be respectful of his elders, but again he’s not.
This chart is randomized, due to an unknown birth time. It highlights a conjunction between the Moon and Neptune which is the first part of a Yod pointing at Saturn. The other part of that Yod is connected to Uranus. (Is it any wonder that Trump dislikes her?)
Moon Inconjunct Saturn
This aspect usually means that your need for emotional security conflicts with your need to live with the world’s demands. Each of us needs to be accepted and loved for what we are, in order to have enough self-confidence to deal with the world. But we also have to learn to live with our own life situations in order to survive. In other words, we have to realize that we can’t have everything we want. With this aspect, these two needs are working against each other. Probably you will satisfy one of them at the expense of the other.
Planets in Youth (page 127) by Robert Hand (1977)
Saturn Inconjunct Uranus
This aspect indicates a serious tension in your life between freedom and restriction. Many people have this conflict, but in your case the tensions may be so severe that you express them physically as muscle tension and possibly nervousness. You feel that somehow you must keep everything in your life under tight control, that if you let go, the whole structure will fall apart. In a very real and direct sense, you must learn to relax.
Ibid (page 294)
Saturn Inconjunct Neptune
This aspect can signify that even as a young child you did not indulge yourself very much, preferring simple food and unpretentious surroundings. You feel that anything more elaborate would be wasteful and wrong.
Ibid (page 297)
Can you see why her sense of fiscal restraint may have set up the internal conflict with Trudeau?
THE Resignation Letter (December 16, 2024)
There is speculation that Freeland’s resignation could cause Trudeau to reconsider his next moves.
This letter is timed to when it was posted on the internet. And there couldn’t be a more public repudiation of Justin Trudeau’s desperate party policies and ‘gimmicks’. That Yod pointing at the Moon is significant. And the Sun inconjunct Uranus speaks of the fact that it was a sudden ‘surprise’.
“Dear Prime Minister,
It has been the honour of my life to serve in government, working for Canada and Canadians. We have accomplished a lot together.
On Friday, you told me you no longer want me to serve as your Finance Minister and offered me another position in the Cabinet.
Upon reflection, I have concluded that the only honest and viable path is for me to resign from the Cabinet.
To be effective, a Minister must speak on behalf of the Prime Minister and with his full confidence. In making your decision, you made clear that I no longer credibly enjoy that confidence and possess the authority that comes with it.
For the past number of weeks, you and I have found ourselves at odds about the best path forward for Canada.
Our country today faces a grave challenge. The incoming administration in the United States is pursuing a policy of aggressive economic nationalism, including a threat of 25 per cent tariffs.
We need to take that threat extremely seriously. That means keeping our fiscal powder dry today, so we have the reserves we may need for a coming tariff war. That means eschewing costly political gimmicks, which we can ill afford and which make Canadians doubt that we recognize the gravity of the moment.
That means pushing back against ‘America First’ economic nationalism with a determined effort to fight for capital and investment and the jobs they bring. That means working in good faith and humility with the Premiers of the provinces and territories of our great and diverse country, and building a true Team Canada response.
I know Canadians would recognize and respect such an approach. They know when we are working for them, and they equally know when we are focused on ourselves. Inevitably, our time in government will come to an end. But how we deal with the threat our country currently faces will define us for a generation, and perhaps longer. Canada will win if we are strong, smart, and united.
It is this conviction which has driven my strenuous efforts this fall to manage our spending in ways that will give us the flexibility we will need to meet the serious challenges presented by the United States.
I will always be grateful for the chance to have served in government and I will always be proud of our government’s work for Canada and Canadians.
I look forward to continuing to work with my colleagues as a Liberal Member of Parliament, and I am committed to running again for my seat in Toronto in the next federal election.”
So, how does it affect Trudeau? Well, I thought you’d never ask.
I guess the strongest conjunction is the one linking Trudeau’s natal Pluto with the letter’s South Node @ 2° Libra. There are lots of other close conjunctions, as you can see for yourself. I shouldn’t think he will survive this public ‘outing’. This is the last nail in his political coffin.
I cannot remember a time when an esoteric book on Tarot has been so anticipated. Ellie’s 44,000 subscribers of her YouTube channel “Ellie Dreams Down Under” are a ready market for sales. They won’t be disappointed.
In my opinion, Ellie has an inside track to the hidden symbolism of the Rider-Waite tarot deck. I wouldn’t suggest that she is the reincarnation of the deck’s artist, Pamela Colman Smith, but that Ellie has been ‘inspired’ by “Pixie“. After watching her daily tarot readings for almost 18 months, I can attest to her knowledgeable interpretation of the cards. And she often says how much she loves her cards.
Even for a casual tarot card reader, Ellie’s descriptions and interpretations are a welcome change from the ‘normal’ how-to manuals. Ellie’s conversational style is easy on the eyes (and the mind’s ears).
If you want to get beyond the limits of an ordinary understanding of tarot, look no further than this book:
