Over the weekend, I watched Netflix’s Death of the Pastor’s Wife, and I have not stopped thinking about Mica Miller since. This story is so sad, for so many reasons. We saw the power dynamic her husband had over her. We saw her asking law enforcement for help many times!!

Mica was the pastor’s wife. This pastor was literally appalling in the clips they showed of him.

Honestly, nothing pisses me off more than watching a man use his position of authority to distort reality and push his own agenda. His sermons gave me the ick almost immediately. There is something so off-putting about a man preaching morality while using the pulpit like a PR machine. He doesn’t even come across as spiritually authoritative to me. It feels like he really enjoys hearing himself explain why he is right.

You can hear the smugness every time he speaks into that microphone. It’s that particular kind of confidence where a man mistakes having a microphone for having moral clarity. I can’t even imagine what he sounds like when the mic is turned off.

The documentary started with a 911 call from a woman.

911 Dispatcher: 911. What is the address of your emergency?

Mica: Hi. Are you able to track where my phone is?

Dispatcher: Let me check. Don’t you know where you are?

Mica: I’m at a national park.

After a brief exchange about her location, the dispatcher determines that Mica is at Lumber River State Park.

Dispatcher: Okay. Tell me what’s happening.

Mica: “I’m about to kill myself, and I just want my family to know where to find me.”

I was immediately hooked, filled with sympathy and about a million questions.

Who was Mica Miller? What had led her to that park that afternoon? Why was the very first thing she wanted to know whether 911 could track her location?

Then the documentary started telling her story. Mica was a beautiful woman from Myrtle Beach, South Carolina, who seemed to have this almost idyllic life from the outside. When I heard her sing. I was completely blown away. She genuinely had the voice of an angel, and I kept thinking about how much life and personality you could hear in it.

She grew up in Wichita, Kansas, in a large, religious family where music and faith were already a huge part of her life. Her family describes her as the sibling who embraced her faith most intensely. When the family eventually moved to Myrtle Beach, South Carolina, church became an even bigger part of who she was. Mica was only 13 when her family began attending Solid Rock Church in Myrtle Beach. The pastor was John-Paul “JP” Miller, a musician and preacher who was about 15 years older than her. Mica went all in for her church and got super involved. Her incredible singing voice had put her at the center of the worship team, and by 16 she was leading the choir, a position her sister points out would normally have been given to someone much older.

So let me emphasize again here that the church pastor knew Mica since she was 13. He was in his late 20’s. When Mica turned 18, she married her first husband, Jeremy Deas, whom she had met through the church. JP officiated their wedding. Mica then went to work as JP’s assistant, placing him in yet another position of authority in her life. A few years into Mica’s first marriage, JP began texting her affectionately. At the time, JP was also married and had children of his own. But his and Mica’s relationship has evolved from teenage girl and pastor to something romantic.

That July, JP stood before his congregation and admitted to what he called a “moral failing” in his marriage. Both marriages eventually ended, but instead of slowing things down, JP reportedly began asking members of the church what they would think about him dating Mica.

JP even mapped out a timeline for when they would become engaged and married. In 2017, Mica Miller married the pastor she had first met when she was just 13 years old.

As expected, this marriage became increasingly toxic and controlling. JP’s influence extended into Mica’s faith, finances, sexuality, and independence. His sermons taught that a wife was her husband’s “helpmate” and framed sex within marriage as an obligation.

What really bothered me was hearing JP say that the things he preached about were usually connected to what was happening in his own life. He repeatedly preached about sex and warned that if a wife did not meet her husband’s needs, other women would be put in front of him. In one sermon featured in the documentary, he tells wives that if they do not meet their husband’s sexual needs, “Satan will put 20 different options before his eyes before the day’s over.” Sounded like a threat to Mica. She already said she was having sex with her husband four or five times a day. She also said JP gave her testosterone so she could keep up with his sexual needs. The testosterone eventually sadly affected her singing voice.

By the spring of 2024, was actively trying to get out.

In the affidavit she later filed with her divorce case, she alleged that since becoming JP’s wife, she had been abused emotionally, sexually, spiritually, financially, and physically. Leaving JP did not seem to make Mica feel any safer. According to the documentary and allegations now contained in a federal indictment, the harassment continued as she tried to separate herself from him. Tracking devices were allegedly placed on her car. Her tires were damaged. She received repeated unwanted calls and messages, including more than 50 contacts from JP in a single day. Prosecutors also allege that he interfered with her finances and her ability to go about her daily life.JP also allegedly posted a nude photograph of Mica online without her consent.

Then came April 27, 2024. Mica drove to Lumber River State Park in North Carolina. At 2:54 that afternoon, she called 911. It was the same call we heard at the beginning of the documentary, the one where her first question was whether the dispatcher could track her phone.

By the time the documentary ended, I knew who Mica Miller was. I knew what she said she had endured. I knew where her life ended.

But then I wanted to know something else.

What did the chart for 2:54 p.m. on April 27, 2024 say about the moment Mica made that 911 call?

Remember, this is NOT a natal chart. Please let me know in the comments if you would like for me to do a natal chart reading here on Substack on Mica, JP, or anyone really.

When I look at forensic cases using astrology, I cast a chart for a significant and confirmed moment during the case. The 911 call that Mica made from the national park was made on 4/27/24 at 2:54 pm. So that’s the timestamp I am using.

When I pulled up this chart, I immediately got the chills. Let me break down what I am seeing and what was actually going on with Mica when she made the call. Also, if anyone reading this reads charts, I would love to hear what you think happened. Because based on what I am seeing, Mica needs some serious justice.

This chart is rising in Virgo at 5 degrees. That’s going to describe how Mica was doing at that moment. Virgo is the most polished sign of the zodiac. Virgo plans, lists, and organizes. It also moves slower because it dots all the i’s and crosses all the t’s. This is telling me that nothing Mica was doing at that moment was spontaneous, or that she was being driven by her own emotions. It tells me that she was following a plan.

You can hear it in the 911 call she made. She wasn’t crying, screaming, or emotional on the call. Her tone was matter-of-fact. I would expect that, most of the time, when a call is made to 911, the person on the other end would be feeling some kind of heightened emotion. According to degree theory, when a sign is at 5 degrees, there is a Leo vibe to it. That makes sense. She was calling and asking to be found.

What really struck me is that Lilith is in the 1st house.

Lilith is described as Adam’s first wife, before Eve. She refused to submit to him in ways she did not agree with, including sexually, and eventually left. She was not going to accept being beneath this man anymore. This symbolism is showing up as part of Mica’s identity at that moment. Lilith is also in Virgo, which feels like scrutiny, health, behavior, and documentation. It’s giving someone being questioned about whether they are functioning the way they are “supposed” to. That sounds a lot like JP in the documentary. Also, 23 degrees in a crime chart represents Aquarius themes of divorce.

So already we are seeing that she was collected, matter-of-fact, and following a carefully made plan, while also carrying this symbolism of being shamed for not submitting to a man.

Now we are looking at the planet that rules the Virgo ASC, and that is Mercury. That is the planet that is going to represent Mica.

In this event chart, Mercury is in the 8th house, ruled by Aries. Mercury is information, communication, messages, and calls. Aries is fast, immediate, and decisive. Putting those together in the 8th house, I am going to say that Mica received some information, or maybe received words or a threat from someone, very quickly that made her run and activate this plan. A very fast sequence of events leading directly into death.

So now we know that Mica was part of a very carefully planned event, but then words or information came quickly to her that made her act fast.

So who gave her this information or said something threatening to her? We can figure that out by looking at the planetary ruler of the 8th house.

The 8th house is ruled by Aries. That’s how I got that whole turning point of information going from something carefully planned to something suddenly being thrown at Mica. The planet that rules Aries is Mars. In this chart, Mars is in the 7th house of Pisces. In forensic astrology, the 7th house almost always represents the perpetrator. So what I am getting now, just from following the rulers, is that the person who gave Mica information, or spoke to her, is the person who caused this whole sad event to happen.

The 7th house in Pisces could mean a few things about the perpetrator. Pisces ruling the perpetrator suggests that their true nature can be confusing or blurred to other people. Pisces on the DSC is showing concealment, blurred boundaries, uncertainty, intoxication, projection, or some situation where the full truth is difficult to see clearly. The 7th house in Pisces has both Saturn and Mars in it. These are two masculine planets, and when there are planets in the 7th house of an event chart, usually someone else is involved.I am flagging that immediately because of the 911 call Mica made and the public narrative of what happened to her.

Was she depressed? If she was, I don’t think it was the reason for this event.

Usually, if depression was involved in a case, I would expect to see some 12th-house placements. But in this chart, the 12th house is in Leo, and there are no planets in it. The ruler of Leo is the Sun in Taurus, and here the Sun is happy in the 9th house, conjunct Venus.

I don’t think mental health problems were impacting Mica’s actions at that moment.

But I am also not going to say that she wasn’t the one to commit this act to herself.

The first indicator that I would check is her mental health, and it doesn’t look like it was involved that day. Mars wasn’t in retrograde, which usually indicates a self-inflicted injury or blame reversal.

But I do see that Neptune is squaring the Moon. I see Mercury conjunct Neptune. Chiron conjunct the 8th house ruler. All of it tells me that Mica was coerced into doing these actions, most likely by another person who was male, with Mars and Saturn there in the 7th house.

So who was this male? The one with a blurred identity who coerced Mica to do this action by sending sudden information and/or a threat?

I will find out more if I look at the ruler of Pisces. The rulers of Pisces are Jupiter and Neptune. Neptune is in the 7th house, adding even more deception from the person who did this, and Jupiter is in Taurus in the 9th house.

That immediately gives a really well-known (Jupiter) teacher, professor, or church leader (9th house). That’s why I love astrology, because it always keeps track. Also, Jupiter is usually what represents a husband in astrology. At 23 degrees, that’s a divorce degree.

Jupiter here is conjunct Uranus, which means that teacher, religious leader, or husband did something really shocking and sudden.

So this is the turning point for me. Following the chart, I don’t think Mica’s actions that day began with her wanting to die. I think they came from coercion. I think something was said or communicated to her that made her feel like she had to act, and based on everything I have followed through the rulers so far, I believe that pressure came from JP.

But what could have been said to her that was serious enough to make her suddenly act?

I went back to Mercury, because Mercury is the chart ruler and represents Mica. Mercury is at a Cancer degree. Cancer rules family, home, children, and the people we feel responsible for protecting.

So I am going to take a leap of faith here.

I think he threatened her that if she did not do this, he would go after her family.

More than anything, this case just makes me incredibly sad. Mica was asking for help. She was trying to be heard. She was trying to regain control of her own life, and now there are so many questions she is no longer here to answer for herself. I hope people keep asking those questions. Mica deserved to feel safe. She deserved to be believed when she said she was afraid. She deserved a future beyond everything she had already survived. I pray that Mica gets justice. I pray that the full truth of what happened to her comes to light.

She asked to be found that day. I just hope one day the whole truth is found with her.

I didn’t want to do this.

A lot of people have asked me to look into the astrology behind the Lindsay Clancy case, and I kept saying no. I can’t analyze crimes involving small kids. I don’t want to go into the horrific details, and I definitely don’t want to turn something this devastating into entertainment.

If you are following this case, you already know the surface story. A mother is accused of committing an unspeakable act against her children. I am not going into the graphic details here. She may have acknowledged causing their deaths, although even the circumstances surrounding some of those statements have been heavily debated.

But this case has completely infiltrated the internet, and at this point it feels like it has infiltrated the consciousness of everyone around me too. I have tried to scroll past it. I have tried not to click on the videos or read the comments. Eventually, I fell under the spell too.

Modern Day Witch Trial

Yes, I am calling it a spell, because that is what this feels like. Everyone is talking about it. Everyone has a theory. Everyone seems convinced something else is going on beneath the obvious facts of the case, and at this point it almost feels impossible not to look.What finally sucked me in was seeing spiritual creators, and even plenty of creators who are not spiritual at all, calling this a modern-day witch trial. The more I thought about that comparison, the more I agreed with it.

Even the symbolism around Patrick caught my attention. Patrick, patriarch, patriarchy. This feels crazy in a case centered around motherhood, female mental health, medicine, criminal responsibility, and a woman’s account of what was happening inside her own mind.

Then there is Massachusetts. Lindsay lived in Duxbury, and her trial is taking place in Plymouth. The Salem witch crisis happened in Massachusetts in 1692. Culturally, we are back on Massachusetts soil watching a woman stand trial while people debate unexplained mental states, invisible experiences, motherhood, judgment, punishment, and if we should believe what she says happened inside her own consciousness.

Also one of the central questions in Lindsay’s case is about an experience nobody else could see or hear. Defense witnesses have testified that Lindsay reported hearing a male voice commanding her to do the crime. Dr. Phillip Resnick testified that he believed she was psychotic and described her as feeling compelled, almost as though someone else were controlling her actions. But was she hearing a dark entity talk to her? Or was an evil man using technology against her.

People always seem to put things in categories. They want a mother or monster, sick or evil, victim or manipulator. Once something gets complicated, everyone starts fighting over which version of the woman is the real one. In 1692, uncertainty about invisible experiences was filtered through the language people had at the time: the Devil, possession, witchcraft. In 2026, we will have DSM diagnoses, forensic psychiatry, medication histories, expert witnesses, and legal standards for criminal responsibility.

Meanwhile, there is another trial happening all over the internet. There are people convinced Lindsay is a manipulator, people who believe she was profoundly psychotic, and a huge number of people getting really bad vibes from Patrick and picking apart everything he says and does. No one seems to agree on what is actually going on, but there is this overwhelming feeling surrounding the case that there is more to understand than what we are seeing on the surface.

So I ran a chart for the 911 call.

I wanted to see if there were any clues about Lindsay’s motives, whats the deal with Patrick, or if any of the theories circulating online were true.Now remember, as always, this is not a natal chart reading. When I look for clues in a crime chart, I do not need to know anyone’s birthdays. I do not need to know any times of birth. All I need is an accurate time stamp of the crime itself. This chart below is the for exact minute that Patrick called 911.

The Victims

In a crime chart, the victim or victims are represented by the ASC and its ruler. The 911 call has a Leo ASC, and Leo is the astrology sign of children. That alone immediately caught my attention. The Ascendant falls at 21°, a Sagittarius degree, and Sagittarius is belief, conviction, ideology, and the reality we construct around what we think is true. That makes me wonder if the children became victims of something the perpetrator genuinely believed in at that moment, regardless of whether that belief reflected objective reality.

Next, I look to the ruler of Leo, which is the Sun. When this crime happened, the Sun was in Aquarius in the 6th house, conjunct Pluto in Capricorn at 28° in the same house. The Sun is traditionally in detriment in Aquarius, so the victim significator is already in a compromised position. Aquarius can pull something away from the individual and connect it to a larger system, ideology, group, or collective framework. The 6th house rules illness, health, medical treatment, medication, daily care, and conditions affecting the body. In forensic astrology, it can also show patterns that develop over time, including long-term planning and stalking.

Put all of that together, and I start wondering if the children had been connected to danger for much longer than the few minutes we are talking about on January 24. The fact that their significator is sitting in the 6th house, conjunct Pluto, makes me look beyond one isolated act and toward something larger than the children themselves and even larger than the Clancy family. That could be the medical system. It could be the pharmaceutical system. It could be a group, club, network, or belief system connected to the family. Whatever this chart is describing, it feels like danger culminating for quite a while from a group of people.

The Sun and Pluto are also sextile Jupiter in Aries in the 8th house, and this is where I start paying very close attention to what has not been uncovered publicly. The 8th house is where I look for buried material, secrets, death, fear, other people’s power, and information that is difficult to access. Jupiter makes things bigger. In Aries, whatever is buried there feels forceful, urgent, aggressive, and significant. To the conspiracy theorists who keep focusing on Patrick, I will also point out that Jupiter can represent the husband or father. My read of this chart makes me think Patrick has something buried very deep that has not been fully brought into the public story. Whatever that is, Jupiter tells me it is not small.

Jupiter is important for another reason. Jupiter rules Sagittarius energy, and I keep getting Sagittarius-degree symbolism throughout this chart. The ASC, DSC, and Mars all fall on Sagittarius degrees. When the same symbolism keeps repeating, I pay attention. To me, this starts to describe a strong belief behind the crime, something that felt justified or necessary to whoever was driving it. When I connect that repeated Sagittarius symbolism back to Jupiter in the 8th, I keep coming back to the possibility of a buried belief, secret, ideology, or group connection that has not been fully exposed.

The victims also make a trine to Mars in Gemini in the 10th house, which immediately connects them to the public explosion surrounding this case. All of the force, conflict, anger, and momentum of Mars is sitting in the most public part of the chart. Gemini is communication, conversation, competing stories, information, and people talking, which is exactly what has happened. This case did not stay contained inside one family or one courtroom. It became something thousands of people are dissecting, arguing over, and trying to understand in real time.

Mars is at 9°, another Sagittarius degree. Once again I come back to belief. This looks like whoever was driving the act believed there was a reason for it, believed it was necessary, or believed they were acting in service of something larger than themselves. That does not make the belief true. It tells me that belief itself may have been one of the most important forces operating in the chart.

The Perpetrator

Now here is where things are going to get really interesting. When the DSC of a crime chart is in Aquarius, I am immediately thinking of a group of people. Maybe a gang. Or a club. I wouldn’t say an institution, because that would be more Capricorn. Aquarius is about a group of people who follow the same belief.

But Lindsay isn’t part of a group of people. Or is she?

One way of looking at this is the medical system failing her. Lindsay was not being treated by one isolated person making one isolated decision. She had become part of an entire network of doctors, psychiatric providers, prescriptions, diagnoses, treatment plans, and medical opinions, all operating within the same larger system of how we understand and treat postpartum mental illness. It could be showing that whatever contributed to this tragedy was collective. Also was her husband being neglectful? Going out to places, leaving his suffering wife alone? There may not be one clean villain sitting across from the victims in this chart. The chart could be pointing toward a network, a shared medical framework, or a series of people participating in the same system, where no single decision caused what happened, but the accumulation of those decisions became part of something much bigger.

But this is what is making me side-eye the whole thing and stand with the conspiracy theories

There are two placements in the 7th house. Placements in the 7th house in crime charts usually show other people that are involved. Which makes the “gang of people” even stronger in this case. But if we are looking at the gang as the medical team, it wouldn’t make sense because I don’t think any doctors or drug makers were at the house during this tragic event.

The placements in the 7th house are Saturn in Aquarius, which typically represents a man. Then there is Venus in Aquarius, which typically represents a woman. Also, Saturn is the ruler of Aquarius energy. Saturn is at home in Aquarius. So the “boss” of the perpetrator was in his own home when the 911 call was being made. Both Saturn and Venus are in direct opposition to the victims. This is making me side-eye Patrick even more. I am going to stand by this, that Lindsay was not alone when committing the crime. Because the stars told me so (yes, I am aware of how crazy I sound).

The other co-ruler of the 7th house, representing the perpetrator, is Uranus. It’s in the 10th house, tightly conjunct the MC. That’s telling me two things about this case. For one, we will be getting a lot of surprises, twists, and turns on how this case will unfold as time goes on. Twists that will rattle us all. Uranus destabilizes that story, exposes things nobody expected, brings technology into it, and makes the public narrative erratic. We are seeing this play out already.

• Technology is revealing a lot.

• The prosecution brought in data from Lindsay’s iPhone and Apple Watch, including her last recorded heart rate, phone activity, calls, and the phone registering her movements

• The medical treatment itself being scandalous. Lindsay received more than 30 prescriptions involving 13 psychiatric medications from multiple providers in the months before the deaths (and that’s only what we know about)

• The case has exploded through the internet in a way nobody can control. More than 164,000 TikTok videos had reportedly been posted under the #clancy hashtag by August 21. Thousands of people are watching trial footage and analyzing testimony in real time.

• Both Patrick’s and Lindsay’s public identity has been completely destabilized.

• A former therapist who had become a TikTok creator was brought in as a potential witness after posting about the case (good thing she still wasn’t “summering”).

• This case violently confronts that assumption and forces people to consider whether a mother can love her children while also becoming psychotic enough to harm them.

BUT Uranus here is also connected directly to the perpetrator here or what I think is perpetrator(s).Technology was also used in the crime.

Could it have something to do with the male voice Lindsay heard? Was it psychosis? Or was it technology?

Lindsay’s Apple Watch was paired with her iPhone and communicated with it through Bluetooth. The forensic expert testified to that directly. Apple Watches can play a human voice through their speaker through phone calls and FaceTime audio, and Apple’s Walkie-Talkie feature allows an approved contact to speak directly through another person’s watch.

With that feature, two Apple Watch users who have previously connected can communicate push-to-talk. Apple describes it as essentially instant voice communication, and the recipient hears the other person’s actual voice from the watch. The recipient does not need to hold a phone to her ear and have what most people would think of as a normal phone conversation.

I think its so strange that the actual Apple Watch was not seized during the original search of the house. Patrick later testified that it was sitting in a nightstand drawer in the bedroom. At trial, an expert was physically shown the watch and testified that he had never seen it before. His analysis came from information synchronized to Lindsay’s phone rather than an examination of that particular physical watch.

So I think it’s a pretty legitimate question to ask if anyone is actually speaking to her electronically that evening? But since the watch itself isn’t part of the court case, will the Jury get to ask?

The Moon in Pisces in the 8th house conjunct Neptune

In these charts, the Moon represents the victims, and it also represents the mother. In either case, they are both in the 8th house. The 8th house represents death and irreversible transformations. We already know, unfortunately what happened to the children. We also know that Lindsay became paralyzed from her own attempt.

But here is what the chart is also telling us.

The Moon is tightly conjunct Neptune. That means that the victims and the mother were heavily under the influence during the crime. Yeah, we know that Lindsay was taking some major psychiatric medications. If this conjunction was going on in the 5th house, I would say something recreational was involved. If this conjunction was going on in the 6th house, I would say it was to treat an illness. But this whole thing going on in the 8th house is really making me feel that the victims and Lindday were heavily drugged during everything. Nobody knew what was going on during the event.

Who supplied the drugs?

Oh, the chart shows that. The Moon and Neptune are making a trine to Lilith in the 12th house. Lilith in the 12th house in crime charts shows a hidden female coconspirator. So another woman was in the background, supplying drugs to Lindsay and the kids to make them heavily under the influence when the crime happened? The stars say so.

Does anyone know someone really close to the family who has access to drugs?

So this is my guess about what happened that day.

I think Lindsay did commit the crime, and I think she genuinely believes that she did it, maybe even to this day. But I do not think she was on her own. My theory is that another male person was influencing or guiding her, specifically a man, and that drugs and technology may have been part of how that influence happened. There was another woman in the background with sinister motives and also maybe part of this “gang” or “club”. They planned it, they orchestrated it, and got Lindsay’s hands dirty doing it. Do I think Lindsay is criminally responsible? No, I think she was forced and isn’t even aware of that because of the drugs. I think she is learning a lot in real time, along with the internet.

Pluto in Aquarius. North Node in Aquarius. Eclipse Season.

A woman says she heard a male voice; her mental state is picked apart, her behavior is judged against what a mother is supposed to be, and the entire system seems far more interested in deciding if she is a monster than in asking whether someone or something else had access to her mind, her body, or her choices. In 1692, people blamed the Devil. In 2026, we have psychiatry, medication, devices, digital records, and forensic experts. The language is different, but the basic question is the same. When a woman says an unseen force was influencing her, do we investigate every possibility, or do we decide she is the witch and close the case?

It’s really worrying me that the jury won’t even get all the evidence, but I am hoping Uranus in the 10th does its thing.

Please let me know what you think about this case, the astrology, or if there is anything else you want me to investigate astrology-wise for this case?

.

Drew Afualo is no stranger to controversy.

If you have spent any time on TikTok over the last few years, you have probably come across her cackling into the camera as she destroys men who make misogynistic or fatphobic comments in their videos.

For example, there was this one guy who made a TikTok video saying that “sometimes he thinks women get drunk and forget to suck in their stomachs”. I don’t think he said anything in this video. He was doing some stupid dance with the words on the screen.

I think when most people saw that video, they just rolled their eyes and moved on. He is obviously working with a very limited number of available brain cells, and none of them appear to be on shift. When I saw that video, I just assumed he was a bot stirring up the pot (for my own mental health). But what a lot of other people did was tag Drew and let her work her magic.

Drew got the tag, and she stitched the video to her millions of followers. But not to educate him on how that’s rude and fatphobic. She essentially gave them insults back, and worse, to her huge platform. First, she told him that he shouldn’t quit his day job, which I wholeheartedly agree with. Then she insulted his body, saying he was built like a palm tree.

She said he resembled Roddy from Flushed Away.

The whole thing about Drew’s brand is that she rejects the idea that women always have to take the high road and patiently educate misogynistic men, saying, “It’s not my job to educate you on why you shouldn’t hate women.” She characterized what she does as making an equally ridiculous joke back.

She can be brutal. Drew has openly said that height and hairlines are reliable targets because they upset men. In 2024, she told People that one of her go-to responses was implying a man was under 5’8”, because men immediately became defensive about their height. She has also said she keeps using height and hairline jokes specifically because they hurt the target’s feelings.

Men and some other critics began calling her a bully because her response frequently wasn’t an explanation of why the original man was misogynistic. She would simply humiliate them. Drew’s position has consistently been that she does not owe misogynists a polite educational response. She said she wasn’t interested in educating men on why they shouldn’t hate women.

Fair. Or I could say what the kids say these days… “you know what, slay”.

Well, she also recently told a man that his nipples looked so stretched that he could be the village’s wet nurse, followed by some cackles. Then she told another dude that he is so old and ugly that he is about to do a late-night shift on the river’s sticks. So she is brutal. Also, I am admitting that I follow her, and I have laughed along. I am a Sagittarius Sun, so I feel like I need to be truthful in my position here.

Afualo has built an entire brand around these kinds of takedowns. She is also an author and the host of The Comment Section, a podcast where she talks about internet culture, feminism, relationships, and social issues with different guests. But recently, a clip from an older episode of the podcast resurfaced, and it put Afualo on the receiving end of the kind of viral scrutiny she is usually dishing out.

This time, people were making videos criticizing her, questioning the way she spoke about an experience that was not her own. This all brought up the question of who should actually be centered in conversations about trans women.

The controversy actually started with a conversation that was more than a year old. On April 2, 2025, Afualo released an episode of The Comment Section called “ALL TWINS ARE BAD Ft. E.R. Fightmaster. At the time, the hour-and-a-half-long episode did not create anything close to the backlash that would eventually surround it.

More than a year later, on July 24, 2026, Afualo shared a short clip from that conversation. In it, Fightmaster says that they believe trans women have a “more beautiful understanding of what womanhood is.” They go on to argue that many cis women have been conditioned to understand womanhood through their social role, their relationship to men, and even their vulnerability to sexual violence. Fightmaster contrasts that with the way they have heard trans women describe womanhood as something expansive and connected to an internal sense of identity. Afualo agrees throughout the discussion and adds some of her own thoughts about the way cis women are taught to understand femininity.

That short clip traveled very differently from the original podcast. Once it began circulating on TikTok in late July, people started stitching and responding to it, with some cis women hearing Fightmaster’s comments as an argument that trans women understand womanhood better than they do. Some of the backlash quickly turned openly transphobic, even though no trans woman had actually participated in the original conversation.

There is also something fascinating about the fact that this conversation sat online for more than a year without becoming a major controversy. The words did not change, and the people in the clip did not change. What changed was the moment in which everyone heard them. By the summer of 2026, Pluto was moving through Aquarius, forcing much bigger conversations about community, influence, representation, and who gets to speak for whom. Maybe this clip did not suddenly become more offensive. Maybe we had simply entered an astrological moment that was finally ready to argue.

At the same time, a separate criticism began emerging from trans women themselves: if Afualo and Fightmaster were going to make broad statements about how trans women experience womanhood, why was there no trans woman in the conversation to speak about that experience firsthand?

Then Drew got mad and did what she does best. She made a video that was angry and defensive. But this time, instead of being angry at misogynistic men, she was angry with women criticizing her response. She said that if people didn’t agree with her takes, then we must be right-wingers or TERFS (trans excluding radical feminists), umm, what? She called the women as transphobic for not agreeing with her clips

She even compared some of the rhetoric surrounding the controversy to the kind of arguments associated with J.K. Rowling. She told people who had a problem with her support of trans women that they were free to unfollow her. I can’t help but feel like her initial response was very much in keeping with the persona that had made her famous. The formula is that someone challenged her, and she believed the criticism was rooted in misogyny or bigotry. So she came back louder with name-calling.

But the point is that I don’t think people have any problem with her support for the Trans community. The issue for the people on the internet was that she, a cis woman, was loudly speaking about what it’s like to be Trans, and yelling and insulting anyone who didn’t agree.

Also, trans women were being dragged into an argument that they had not started. People were flooding the comments of some Trans women creators, asking them to comment and to defend a claim that they didn’t even make.

You see, Drew had spent years building a platform around identifying misogyny and refusing to let people hide behind excuses when women told them something was harmful. But when members of another marginalized group began explaining why this particular conversation made them uncomfortable, her first instinct was still to explain the conversation rather than listen to what they were saying about it.

The real lesson from this recent drama is that supporting a community does not automatically give someone the authority to define that community’s experience. Having defended trans women for years does not make Drew a trans woman. Also, being one of the loudest allies in the room does not make her perspective more important than the people whose lives are actually being discussed.

Now I would like to compare the recent drama and the lesson learned to the current astrology, because it fits so well!

Drew’s Angry Video

August 9, 2026, posted at 7:24 AM (time stamp taken from tiktok)

I think it is really interesting that the video has Virgo Rising at 1°.

Virgo energy likes to analyze and criticize. Virgo energy also has an extreme awareness of what it believes has been misunderstood or presented incorrectly. Drew came into this video ready to pick apart the backlash. She wanted people to understand the context of the original conversation. Also, she was frustrated that people were reacting to a clip instead of watching the entire podcast. So in her response, she was essentially telling her audience where she believed they had gotten it wrong.

But sitting at 0° Virgo in the 12th house, less than one degree behind her Ascendant, is the South Node. The South Node tells us the patterns that have become so familiar that we barely notice ourselves repeating them. Since the South Node is in Virgo, we can see that Drew is very used to correcting and criticizing people she thinks are being unfair. It comes so naturally to her that she probably does not have to give it much thought. Drew has built much of her career doing exactly that, usually very successfully. But during this video, that same instinct seems to be part of the blind spot.

Directly across the chart, the North Node sits at 0° Pisces in the 6th house, less than one degree from the Descendant. The 6th house represents service, support, and the way we make ourselves useful to other people. This is showing that at the time of the video, Drew really needed to learn to listen to other people in order to grow. Pisces energy is all about empathy, openness, and the willingness to listen before trying to define someone else’s experience.

Then let’s look at this larger generational planet Pluto. The internet has been chattering about how Pluto in Aquarius is going to be the downfall of the influencers. Pluto exposes the power dynamics underneath those spaces. Since Pluto is retrograde, some of that examination turns inward. This controversy forces Drew to look at the power dynamics inside allyship itself.

Can you speak for them if you are not them? Also, when does using your platform to support a community turn into becoming the most powerful voice speaking about that community?

Pluto is also opposing Mercury in Cancer in the 11th house. That is putting enormous pressure on Drew’s message and the way it was received by a larger community. Mercury in Cancer speaks protectively, and Drew clearly believed she was protecting trans women. Pluto’s opposition forces another question into the conversation. With all the good intentions aside, who actually holds the power to define what is being said?

The Apology Video

August 11, 2026 posted at 7:03 PM

It turns out that Drew listened to the people. After trans women began explaining why the original conversation and her first response had missed something important, she came back two days later with an understanding tone.

This time, she acknowledged that a conversation centered on trans women’s experience of womanhood should have included a trans woman in the first place. She also recognized that trans women were being forced to absorb the backlash from a debate they had not started, and she apologized for the way the situation had unfolded. Instead of continuing to defend her original position, Drew did something much more difficult for someone whose entire brand is built around having the comeback. She let other people change her mind. Astrology reflects that!

The apology chart opens with Aquarius rising. That is showing that Drew herself had shifted her focus toward collective voices, and how she fits into something larger than herself.

Sitting just behind the Ascendant is Pluto retrograde in Aquarius in the 12th house. Drew was now confronting something she had not fully recognized about her own influence. When you have millions of followers, even an attempt to advocate for another community gives you enormous power over the conversation. Pluto sitting behind the Ascendant suggests that this power dynamic had been operating underneath the surface until the controversy brought it out.

Across the chart, the Descendant is in Leo, with Jupiter sitting close to it and the Moon conjunct Jupiter in the 7th house. Suddenly, other people are huge in this chart. Jupiter magnifies them, while the Moon shows how much their feelings and reactions matter to the event. I love the symbolism of all this Leo landing on the side of other people. Drew is normally the star of the show, but in the apology chart, the spotlight has moved across the room.

Then the North Node in Pisces has crossed into the 1st house. In Drew’s first response, it was still on the other side of the chart, suggesting that the lesson had to come through listening to other people. Two days later, it moved onto her side. Pisces asks for empathy, openness, and the willingness to accept that someone else’s experience does not need to be neatly explained by you. By the apology video, Drew had done exactly that: she listened to trans women, reconsidered her role in the conversation, and allowed what they told her to change the way she showed up.

Also, remember the Mercury-Pluto opposition from the first video? Two days later, it is almost exact. Mercury has moved into Leo, while Pluto sits at 3° Aquarius, leaving only three arc minutes between an exact opposition.

Now who says astrology isn’t real? In the first video, Drew was fiercely protecting and defending her position. By the time the apology happened, Mercury had entered Leo, putting the individual voice and the person holding the microphone directly across from Pluto in Aquarius, where bigger questions about power within groups and communities are being exposed. The tension we saw developing in the first chart has reached its peak. One highly influential voice is now face-to-face with the collective. This time, Drew does something different with that tension. She uses the microphone to acknowledge the community that challenged her. This makes me love her more.

Conclusion

Honestly, I hope Drew continues her usual content. She is hilarious.

There are still plenty of men on TikTok who apparently need to be told they look like they work at Sam’s Club selling turf. Or that they look like they work at Valvoline because their aura is giving oil change. Or that they look like they were made from Legos.

Not that there is anything wrong with those attributes. I am sure there are women out there who love a Lego dinosaur-looking man! But when someone is making videos commenting on women’s bodies, I understand why Drew keeps these insults in the files. Misogyny is all over TikTok, and I do not see it disappearing anytime soon. Her willingness to speak up, take up space, and say what other people are afraid to say is part of why millions of people followed her in the first place.

This controversy revealed something much more interesting about having such a huge voice, though. Sometimes the same quality that makes someone an incredible advocate also makes it harder for them to recognize when they have become the center of a conversation that was never supposed to be about them. Supporting a community requires knowing the difference between using your microphone for someone and handing the microphone to them. Drew’s first response was about defending what she believed. Her second was about allowing the people she was defending to teach her something.

Perhaps that is where our collective idea of influence is heading too. We have spent years rewarding the person with the biggest platform, the quickest comeback, and the loudest voice. Pluto in Aquarius is asking us to think more seriously about what happens after someone gets that microphone. Who are they speaking for? Who is missing from the conversation? Do they know when their voice is helping, and do they know when it is taking up space that belongs to someone else?

Sometimes being influential means speaking up. Sometimes it means roasting a misogynist until he regrets ever opening TikTok.

Sometimes, though, the most influential thing you can do is recognize that this particular part of the story belongs to someone else, and hand them the microphone.

Disclaimer: This is for entertainment purposes only. I am not accusing any person of committing a crime or covering one up. I am simply a star lady looking for clues in the astrology charts, and sharing my personal interpretation of the planetary placements. Nothing in this post should be taken as a statement of proven fact.

In this article, I am going to look for clues in the Nolan Wells case using forensic astrology. There are many conflicting witness accounts and unanswered questions surrounding Nolan’s final hours. I am approaching this case with care because his family deserves a clear, complete account of what happened to him.

Nolan Xavier Wells was an 18-year-old man from Ocean Springs, Mississippi. He was a recent high school graduate, a talented football player, a college athlete, a role model to his younger siblings, and someone who dreamed of reaching the NFL. His mother described him as the kind of person who made others feel seen, welcomed, and valued.

On the morning of July 4, 2026, Nolan went on a boating trip to Horn Island with friends to celebrate Independence Day. It was supposed to be a summer day with friends, music, boats, and hundreds of people gathering along the island.

His friends got on a boat and left Horn Island at 4:31 p.m. Public statements from officials say Nolan did not return to the mainland on that boat. He allegedly told his friends he was going to stay behind and take a later boat. But his cell phone and keys were on the boat.

When Nolan did not come home, his family began trying to find him. He was formally reported missing on the night of July 4. Search efforts expanded across Horn Island and the surrounding water, involving local law enforcement, the Mississippi Department of Marine Resources, the Coast Guard, the National Park Service, volunteers, aircraft, boats, drones, and sonar equipment. Nolan’s body was found in the water near the northwestern end of Horn Island on the morning of July 6.

The circumstances of Nolan’s final hours remain unanswered. An independent autopsy commissioned by his family classified both the cause and manner of his death as undetermined pending further investigation.

Nolan Wells and the Boat’s Departure Chart

I’m only going to use timestamps that are supported by digital or agency records, rather than times based witness recollections. Somebody knew something. Nolan was with everyone and got killed. This doesn’t seem like something that would happen behind everyone's backs.

GPS data obtained by CBS News from the Mississippi Department of Marine Resources shows that the boat departed Horn Island at 4:31 p.m. on July 4, 2026. Because the public accounts of Nolan’s final hours contain disputed details and unanswered questions, I am using this recorded boat movement as the foundation of my analysis. I am starting by casting a chart for the moment the boat left Horn Island.

The Scorpio Rising represents Nolan himself. In forensic astrology, the Ascendant represents the person at the center of the event, so in this chart it represents Nolan.

So at the time the boat left, Nolan was alert, emotionally stable, and analyzing what was happening around him. Scorpio watches people closely, notices shifts in behavior, and senses when something is happening beneath the surface. Nolan was likely studying the situation he was in and trying to understand the energy and intentions of the people around him. Not in a dangerous way or anything. This chart shows he was with a woman, so he was likely trying to feel out their interaction.

Let’s look at the rulers of Scorpio to understand more about what Nolan was doing at the moment the boat left. Scorpio has two planetary rulers, Pluto and Mars. Their placements describe Nolan’s circumstances, his movements, and the people surrounding him when the boat departed.

Pluto Retrograde in the Third House

Nolan’s first ruler is Pluto retrograde in Aquarius in the third house.

The third house rules transportation, short trips, movement between nearby locations, and the vehicle being used for the journey. In this case it would be the boat. Aquarius describes groups, friends, and social circles. With Nolan’s ruler in Aquarius, he was not alone when the boat departed. He was surrounded by a group of people, matching the group traveling together on the boat.

Now let’s be honest, call me crazy, but I am going to believe a horoscope chart over what’s been reported in the news. The chart is clearly saying that when the boat left at 4:31pm, Nolan was on it. I don’t care what witnesses were saying here.

Pluto being in retrograde at that moment indicates movement back toward a previous location, and at 4 degrees, its showing Nolan returning home rather than remaining on the island.

Pluto also brings intensity, power struggles, hidden motives, and circumstances that become more serious than they first appear. Its placement in the transportation house shows that the return trip itself was connected to the events surrounding Nolan’s death.

I also think with the retrograde, this is something that this danger was Nolan has been warned about before. Something that was not fair. Aquarius represents the group, but it also shows the person who is treated as different within that group. It can reveal exclusion, discrimination, and the unfair social rules deciding who belongs.

Nolan was a young Black man surrounded largely by white people on a boat in Mississippi, and I can’t ignore the racial context of that image. I am not saying that racial motivation has been proven in this case, but it raises my concern. The chart makes me question whether prejudice, exclusion, or a discriminatory attitude influenced the way Nolan was treated. Nolan could sense that something about the situation was wrong, unfair, and directed toward him in a way the others did not have to experience.

Let’s look at the other ruler of Scorpio to see what else Nolan was doing when the boat left. Let’s look at this situation that he was in that was unfairly dangerous. Because the chart is showing, it involves him chatting with a woman.

Mars Conjunct Uranus in the Seventh House

Nolan’s second ruler is Mars in the seventh house, conjunct Uranus in Gemini. The seventh house begins in Taurus, but it quickly moves into Gemini.

The seventh house represents the other person directly involved with Nolan when the boat left. It also describes the relationship or interaction connected to the danger surrounding him. Mars placed here tells me that Nolan was closely engaged with another person during this critical moment.

At the time the boat left, Nolan was within a large group of people, but he appears to have been focused one-on-one with someone. Since the seventh house begins in Taurus, I read this as a clue that Nolan was talking with a woman.

The Descendant connecting to Saturn on the inner dial shows a restriction surrounding this woman. She was attracted to Nolan, but she also felt that she was not supposed to be talking to him. Why shouldn’t she speak to him, though? This is where I start connecting the restriction around her to the discrimination I saw earlier in Nolan’s chart. She did not seem to agree with that boundary, but other people around her could have reacted strongly when they saw her crossing it. We will look more closely at where that restriction came from in the next section.

Taurus ruling this interaction brings attraction, possessiveness, jealousy, and the desire to claim or hold onto someone. Nolan’s connection with this woman upset somebody. Someone did not like seeing them together or believed that Nolan was crossing a boundary.

The chart then moves quickly into Gemini in the seventh house. To me, this shows that the interaction did not remain between Nolan and the woman. Other people entered the situation, had opinions about what was happening, or became involved after seeing them together.

Mars represents Nolan and his interaction with the woman when the boat left. Because Mars was conjunct Uranus, something explosive, sudden, and completely unexpected developed from this interaction. Nothing here looks carefully planned in advance. Something happened in the moment that shocked someone, angered someone, or caused a person to lose control.

Uranus acts without warning, while Mars reacts through confrontation, aggression, and impulsive behavior. Since they are linked together, they describe an incident that escalated rapidly.

Gemini adds multiple people, conflicting stories, changing conversations, and information being passed between different members of the group. It also suggests that more than one person witnessed what happened, knew something about it, or became involved in the situation afterward.

The Cause of Death

So here is what I am concluding based on the clues from the stars. Nolan returned home from Horn Island with his friends on the boat. He was chatting with a girl, and there was some attraction there. Probably on both ends, but at the same time there was danger there. There were people connected to the girl who did not approve of this interaction. A conflict broke out. I am also noticing that both rulers of Nolan, and the people involved in the death, and the girl involved are all making a sextile to Neptune in the 5th house in Aries in this chart.

So this conflict, trying to pull Nolan away from the girl was alcohol fueled. Drinking was part of the gathering, and the chart suggests that alcohol affected judgment and intensified the emotions around the conflict. The anger, the conflicts, were alcohol induced. The drunken state of everyone represented by Neptune in the 5th house, is making a square to the Sun in Cancer in the 8th.

The 8th house represents the death of the victim. The Sun means it was a man who ended up doing it, and in Cancer it means that the death was in a body of water. This is so sad and heartbreaking.

Nothing here was premeditated. This was some drunk, angry people who got into a conflict with Nolan about speaking to a girl. But now what I am wondering is why didn’t they want her speaking to Nolan?

The Woman

The woman Nolan was speaking to is represented by the 7th house ruled by Taurus. At 14 degrees, the Taurus symbolism describes her as attractive, strong-willed, and unwilling to follow a restriction she believed was unfair She knew she shouldn’t be involved with Nolan on a romantic level, as shown by Saturn on the inner dial. But she thought that rule was dumb. Why shouldn’t she speak to him though? This is where I start connecting the restriction around her to the discrimination I saw earlier from the Pluto in retrograde in the 3rd house. She did not seem to agree with that boundary, but other people around her could have reacted strongly when they saw her crossing it.

Let’s look at the ruler of Taurus to get more info for her. That would be Venus in Leo, in the 10th house. Its also conjunct with the South Node. That is the placement that gives me all the clues I need to understand this case. Once the chart identifies a woman at the center of the interaction, her ruling planet tells us what pressures surrounded her and why the connection might have caused such a strong reaction.

According to one of my favorite books on forensic astrology, The FPR Method by BW Sloane:

“Venus in the tenth house focuses on public image, status, and the way attraction or relationships play out within professional and social environments. This placement suggests that the emotional trigger surrounding this case was connected to reputation, authority, or the desire to maintain a certain social standing”.

Venus is also conjunct the South Node in Leo in the tenth house. This describes an attachment to reputation and the pressure to protect how a person, family, or social group is perceived. The North Node in the fourth house brings the family, home, and legacy into the story. Together, these placements make me question whether protecting a family’s image became more important to someone than giving a complete account of what happened.

This also makes me wonder whether the young woman came from a family with influence, status, or strong expectations surrounding who she was allowed to associate with. I do not have public evidence that her family worked in government or law enforcement, but the tenth-house symbolism keeps authority and social power on my mind.

Articles are saying she was on the island with a different group of people, that included her brother. But why is her sister suddenly so involved in the case insisting that Katie wasn’t on the boat? Was her sister even on the island, and on the boat?

Conclusion

This case is heartbreaking. Nolan was a young man who traveled to an island with friends to celebrate the Fourth of July. The group spent the day drinking and partying, but according to my reading of the chart, something changed during the trip back.

I believe Nolan was talking to a young woman he was interested in, and people around her could have disapproved. The chart points me toward alcohol, a sudden confrontation, and concerns involving reputation and authority. It also leaves me questioning whether the public has been given the complete story of what happened.

Black Lives Matter. Nolan’s life mattered. His family deserves answers, accountability, and justice.

Let me know what you think happened in the comments. Do we know who the woman’s family are connected to?

Ever since Netflix released Maternal Instinct, it feels like everyone is talking about Taylor Parker.

The case is horrifying, confusing, and its really hard to grasp the psychology of Taylor Parker. So of course, I had to look at her birth chart. I wanted to see what kind of astrology could be sitting behind a woman who created such a massive false reality, pulled so many people into it, and turned pregnancy, motherhood, and the body into the center of a nightmare.

I found Taylor’s birthday through a Google search. Her birth time is not publicly available as of writing this article, so I drew a chart from her birthday alone. She was born on December 8, 1992.

The first thing I noticed was her Sagittarius Sun.

Sagittarius is all about seeking the truth. But the only Sagittarius thing I see about Taylor is that she posted with a horse for the documentary picture.

There is a lot of chatter in the astrology community about Sun sign astrology. People wonder how important it really is, or if it is just hyped up because it is so easy to determine based on your birthday.

The question I have been pondering a lot lately is whether your Sun sign is something you grow into, or if it is something you are born already shining through.

My hot take is yes, the Sun is something you grow into.

It is sort of like this: when you are born, your Sun starts as a bright star. As you grow, that star expands, and the light gets brighter. As you age, your Sun sign keeps increasing in strength. It is one of those placements that brightens with time, because just like the Sun keeps burning and burning, your Sun sign keeps growing and growing. It’s one of those things that usually gets better with age.

But for Taylor, I think it worked in the opposite direction.

Because her Sagittarius Sun is sitting with her North Node, embracing that Sun was never going to be an automatic growth for her. It was something she had to grow into on purpose. She needed to keep choosing truth, growth, honesty, exploration, perspective, and a bigger life than the one she already knew. Her chart was asking her to stretch. It was asking her to get out of the small story, out of the familiar pattern, and into a much wider understanding of life.

The problem is that when someone refuses their North Node, the pressure builds. The older they get, the louder it becomes. The life path keeps calling, and if the person keeps avoiding it, the energy starts coming out sideways. The growth turns into chaos. The higher version of the Sun gets buried, and the shadow of the sign starts taking over.

For Taylor, the best thing she could have done to embrace her Sagittarius side was leave the familiar world she was clinging to. Travel would have been huge for her. Leaving Texas, seeing different cultures, learning a new language, studying a new belief system, meeting people who lived completely different lives, or even moving somewhere that forced her to become a new version of herself could have helped activate the higher side of her Sagittarius Sun.

Her chart was asking her to expand, but she kept collapsing into the same pattern. She chased a false reality instead of seeking wisdom. That is where the energy gets so chaotic. Sagittarius wants the truth to set you free, but when it gets distorted, the lie becomes the thing a person worships.

There is also a strong chance that her Moon is in Gemini. Her chart shows it is possible she was born with either a late degree Taurus Moon or an early degree Gemini Moon. Since we will never know for sure without a birth time, I am working with the Gemini Moon as my guess. I can’t really see a Taurus Moon behaving like she did, they have a much more calm demeanor.

Honestly, the Gemini Moon fits the chaos of this case. It fits the scattered stories, the constant lying, the ability to switch versions of reality, and the way she seemed to keep multiple narratives alive at the same time.

Taylors Eclipse Energy

Taylor was born the day before a Lunar Eclipse. She acted out the lowest, most distorted expression of the Gemini and Sagittarius axis, she turned into a living, breathing chaotic eclipse.

She swallowed the truth, split the story into pieces, and pulled everyone around her into a reality that kept changing shape.

A Sagittarius North Node with the Sun in Sagittarius is supposed to push a person toward truth, morality, confession, accountability, and the bigger spiritual lesson of honesty. Sagittarius is the sign of truth. It wants the whole story, the higher law, the ethical path, and the courage to say what is real.

But Parker’s life, as shown in this case, moved in the opposite direction. Court records describe evidence that she had a history of faking pregnancies, bought a fake belly, and staged events to make people believe she was pregnant. That is the dark distortion of Sagittarius. Instead of truth, there is a giant false belief system.

She chose to stay in the comfort zone of her South Node and Moon, moving away from the tide that her life path was pushing her toward.

As a person gets older, that tide only gets stronger. The life path gets louder. The pressure builds. It gets harder and harder to avoid the lesson your soul came here to learn.

Because this is tied to a Lunar Eclipse, everything becomes bigger. Like really big. Eclipse energy magnifies whatever it touches. It turns private patterns into public events. It pulls hidden things into the open. It creates moments that feel fated, shocking, and impossible to ignore.

In Taylor’s case, that eclipse energy became so loud that it turned into a Netflix documentary that the whole world, including me, is talking about.

If her Moon is in Gemini, it would really explain her behavior in that police interview at the hospital. In a healthy chart, a Gemini Moon can make someone clever, funny, fast-thinking, curious, and verbally gifted. In the shadow, especially tied to the South Node during an eclipse, it becomes compulsive lying, splitting the story into a hundred versions, saying whatever keeps the moment moving, and using information as a weapon.

In this case, it manifested into a long pregnancy hoax, shifting claims, one of the worst unaliving cases, I have ever heard of, and an attempt to pass Reagan Simmons-Hancock’s unborn baby off as her own.

A Lunar Eclipse birth also puts a giant spotlight on the Moon, and the Moon rules motherhood, pregnancy, the body, family, protection, babies, and the emotional bond between mother and child. The crime itself centered on a horrific violation of Moon themes: pregnancy, birth, motherhood, and the mother-child bond.

Taylor was living inside a chaotic eclipse of her own making, where the truth was swallowed, the story kept changing, and the most sacred Moon themes were pulled into the darkest possible expression.

Jupiter in Libra

Next I am looking for Jupiter, because Jupiter is the planet telling her Sagittarius energy what to do.

Taylor has Jupiter in Libra at 10 degrees. Jupiter is the planet that expands whatever it touches, and Libra is all about relationships, connection, charm, social balance, and how we relate to other people. So this is saying that the energetic eclipses Taylor brings into the world are strongly connected to her relationships with other people. The things she does usually affect another person in a major way.

When someone has Jupiter in Libra, they can be extremely charming. They can make themselves seem bubbly, pleasant, approachable, and easy to trust right away. Jupiter in Libra understands the power of being liked. It understands how far a smile can go, how much doors open when people enjoy being around you, and how much easier life becomes when people want to believe the best about you.

I feel like Taylor is one of those people who can pinpoint someone and easily become their friend. She can read the social atmosphere, figure out what someone wants to hear, and then make herself feel safe, familiar, and likable to them.

The shadow side of this is that, if she is in a dark place, she can create false relationships very easily. She can build fake closeness, fake trust, and fake connection in order to get what she wants. People can feel like they know her, like they are special to her, or like they have been chosen by her, while she is really using the relationship as a bridge to her own goal.

Her Jupiter is at 10 degrees of Libra, giving it a Capricorn edge. That adds patience, strategy, timing, and planning to the charm. She can take her time building these relationships. She can wait, move slowly, study people, and let the connection develop until it becomes useful. This is charm with a long-term plan behind it.

Her Jupiter in Libra is also making a square to her Neptune and Uranus conjunction in Capricorn, and this is where the charm becomes the doorway to all the lies she tells. She uses relationships to make the fantasy feel believable. She presents herself as pleasant, trustworthy, and easy to root for, while constantly changing the story, hiding the truth, and building an image that is full of holes. She lies to create the life she wants people to think she has. She lies to make people invest in the version of her that sounds lovable, successful, wronged, pregnant, chosen, or deserving. With this square, the lie becomes bigger than words. It becomes a whole constructed reality that other people get pulled into through charm, sympathy, and trust.

Scorpio Mercury and Pluto

So while all of this is going on, Taylor’s brain and thinking are ruled by Scorpio energy.

She has Mercury conjunct Pluto in Scorpio.

Mercury is the mind. It is how someone thinks, talks, listens, processes information, and puts pieces together.

Pluto is obsession, secrets, power, control, hidden motives, fear, manipulation, and the ability to see what other people are trying to bury.

So when Mercury and Pluto are together in Scorpio, the mind becomes a detective with night vision.

While Taylor is building relationships with people and putting all that big charm in front of her eclipse energy, her brain is running like a private investigator in a true crime documentary. She clocks every micro-expression. She remembers the exact words people use. She notices the pause before someone answers. She hears the shift in tone. She files away the detail that everyone else forgot five minutes later.

Then she compares it to something that person said six months ago and builds an entire case file in her head.

She is the type of person who asks questions that she already knows the answer to. She wants to see how you answer. She wants to see if your story changes. She wants to see if your face moves differently. She wants to see if you add too much detail, avoid eye contact, get defensive, or accidentally reveal something you were trying to hide. She listens like a therapist, investigates like a detective, and remembers like a locked vault.

She is also the type to hoard information. She is selective about what she reveals. She can get other people to confess, open up, explain themselves, and hand over their secrets, while she gives back just enough to seem relatable. She listens deeply, but she does not offer the same level of transparency in return.

She knows everyone’s secrets while guarding her own.

This conjunction can also lead to lies becoming a tool for control. Its like a way to manage perception, hide shame, protect secrets, and stay several steps ahead of everyone else. With this placement, the scariest part is that she can sound calm, convincing, and emotionally believable while carefully choosing exactly what they reveal and exactly what they bury.

With Taylor, underneath the charm, there was a mind constantly scanning, calculating, comparing, and collecting. She could seem warm and open while keeping the most important parts of herself completely hidden.

Mars in Cancer

Taylor has Mars in Cancer, which is coming in from another angle.

Mars shows how someone goes after what they want. It is the way a person chases, competes, reacts, attacks, protects, and pursues the thing they believe they need. It also shows what activates them, what threatens them, and what makes their body go into fight mode.

Cancer is the sign of motherhood, family, pregnancy, emotional attachment, protection, home, memory, and the body’s instinct to nurture. So when Mars is in Cancer, her actions are driven by feeling over logic. She feels things very quickly and very deeply, and those feelings can take over the steering wheel.

Mars in Cancer is fiercely protective, especially over mother, family, children, and the people they feel emotionally bonded to. This is a mama bear placement. In its healthiest expression, it protects the nest. Moods change often like the Moon. Being emotionally triggered turns easily to anger. The anger does not always come out directly. It moves indirectly, like a crab running sideways. It can show up through blame, guilt, emotional manipulation, resentment, victimhood, jealousy, need, and emotional panic.

With Taylor, this Cancer Mars symbolism is chilling because the crime itself centered around the darkest possible distortion of Cancer themes. Pregnancy, motherhood, the body, the womb, the home, and the need to possess something that represents family all became part of the story.

Taylor also has Mars in retrograde, which makes this even more internalized. Mars retrograde can show anger that turns inward first. It builds inside the body for a long time before it turns outward. She carries rage, resentment, desire, humiliation, and emotional urgency inside herself before anyone fully sees it.

From what we saw in the documentary, Taylor seemed to place a lot of blame on her mom. She talked badly about her, blamed her for things, and seemed to hold a deep emotional charge toward her. With Mars in Cancer retrograde, that makes sense symbolically, because the anger can build around the mother wound, the family wound, and the feeling that the person who was supposed to nurture you somehow failed you.

Her rage seemed to gather around the mother archetype, and in her life, that appeared to land heavily on her own mom. Instead of processing the wound directly, the anger stayed buried, grew roots, and became part of the shadow expression of her Mars. Its like she described everything she hated about herself into her mother. But then seemed calm about it on the outside.

When Mars in Cancer retrograde finally erupts, people can be shocked that the person was even angry at all. The anger was already there. It was just hidden under emotion, charm, helplessness, and the appearance of needing care.

Remember, Taylor also has that Jupiter charm layered on top of all of this. So while this anger is building underneath the surface, she can still come across bigger, warmer, more convincing, and more likable than what is actually happening inside her.

The Seesaw Pattern

I think Taylor feels a constant tug of war between two sides of herself. That is because her chart has a Seesaw Pattern to it. When someone has their planets shaped in this pattern, they tend to feel like their life has two different sides pulling against each other.

The problem is that those two sides struggle to coexist in peace, grace, and harmony. Like a seesaw, when one side goes up, the other side goes down. When one part of her takes over, the other part crashes. That seesaw also includes her Sagittarius Sun eclipse energy, which makes the whole pattern feel even louder, bigger, and harder to control.

On one side of this energy is her Sagittarius Sun, sitting with her Mercury and Pluto conjunction, her Capricorn outer planet placements, and her Aquarius Venus and Saturn. This side of her chart feels intense, strategic, social, image-focused, truth-obsessed, and mentally powerful.

On the other side are her Moon and her Mars retrograde in Cancer. This side is emotional, reactive, maternal, resentful, protective, needy, and deeply tied to family, motherhood, memory, and the body.

That is the tug of war in her chart. It is truth versus emotion. When one side goes up, the other crashes down.

In Taylor’s case, that seesaw became extreme. Her chart shows two sides of the self pulling against each other, and instead of integration, we see chaos, contradiction, projection, and collapse.

Taylor is the personification of a Lunar Eclipse, the shadow that swallowed the truth and turned the most sacred Moon themes into horror.

What do you think of her birth chart? Let me know!

Disclaimer: This is a forensic astrology analysis based on publicly available information and symbolic chart interpretation. Astrology is used here as an interpretive lens to examine the themes, patterns, and unresolved questions surrounding the case. This article is not a legal accusation, a finding of guilt, or a claim of responsibility against any person.

The Case

In this article, I am looking at the death of Ellen Greenberg through the lens of forensic astrology.

This is one of those cases that stays with you after you hear it. I first learned the details while listening to cover the story and evidence on her podcast, Serialously, and I have not been able to stop thinking about it since.

Ellen’s case reached an even wider audience after Hulu released the documentary Death in Apartment 603: What Happened to Ellen Greenberg? The documentary brought her story back into the public conversation and invited people to look again at a case that has always felt unresolved, even though the official ruling says otherwise.

On paper, Ellen Greenberg’s death was ruled a suicide. But there is no way.

Ellen was 27 years old. She was a first-grade teacher living in Philadelphia, engaged to be married, and, from the outside, in the middle of a life that was still unfolding. On January 26, 2011, a winter storm moved through Philadelphia, the kind of blizzard that shuts a city down and makes everything feel strangely suspended.

That afternoon, Ellen left work early and returned to the apartment she shared with her fiancé, Samuel Goldberg.

Later that evening, she would be found dead inside that apartment. She had been stabbed repeatedly. Ellen was alone in the sixth-floor apartment. There was no one else reportedly inside.

The Timeline

According to reports, the timeline of that evening unfolded like this:

Around 4:45 p.m., Ellen’s fiancé, Samuel Goldberg, left the apartment and went to the gym.

Around 5:30 p.m., Goldberg returned from the gym and attempted to get back into the apartment. He found the interior swing-bar latch engaged and began calling and texting Ellen repeatedly. His messages reportedly became increasingly frustrated. For approximately 40 minutes, Goldberg reportedly banged on the door and shouted Ellen’s name, but received no response. Around 6:30 p.m., Goldberg forced the door open. Inside, he found Ellen in the kitchen.

Ellen had 20 stab wounds, including wounds to her back and neck. This case was ruled as a suicide, which never made sense.

For Ellen’s family, the suicide ruling has never made sense. They have spent years challenging it. They have argued that the physical evidence, the number and placement of wounds, the bruising, and the handling of the scene all point toward something far more disturbing than the official conclusion.

That is what makes this case so hard to put down. It is the feeling that something in the story has never fully settled. I just don’t understand how someone can stab themselves at all, especially 20 times. Especially since she was a woman who was terrified of pain.

This ruling has raised more questions than answers, so this is where I want to begin analyzing some charts of that day, looking for clues.

This is a chart made for the last time Ellen was seen, getting gas at 1:26 pm. I think this is a strong starting point for this case, because a lot of the timeline seems to be verified by the fiancée.

Distorted Public Image

What stands out immediately is Neptune sitting at the MC of this chart, which is the highest and most public point in the chart’s energy.

In a crime chart, the MC describes what becomes public, what people see first, the official story, authority figures, the event's reputation, and the “headline” attached to the case.

When Neptune is placed there, the public story becomes foggy, distorted, confusing, hidden, misread, and difficult to prove clearly.

Neptune, being at the very top of the chart, almost directly on the angle, shows that the public story around this case was distorted at a very high level. What was presented to the public does not match what actually happened. The facts became blurred, the timeline became unreliable, and the official version of events became part of the confusion.

This is why the case has never been settled. Neptune on the MC shows a public narrative that cannot be trusted. It shows an official story wrapped in fog, missing pieces, unclear authority narratives, and a version of events that keeps collapsing under closer examination.

It also explains why the central question of the case has never gone away: was this really a suicide, or was Ellen Greenberg murdered?

What is also interesting is that Neptune is at 27 degrees, which is a Gemini degree. Gemini can point to multiple voices, multiple stories, messages, neighbors, siblings, extended family, and people talking around the event. With Neptune at this degree, the distortion shows several people contributing to the confusion, repeating a version of events, misunderstanding key details, or helping create a public story that became harder and harder to untangle.

To me, this is one of the first signs in the chart that the official narrative is not the truth of what happened.

Ellen

In crime charts, the victim is always represented by the rising sign. This chart has a Gemini rising, which immediately makes sense because Ellen was reportedly in her car getting gas, and Gemini rules cars, movement, short trips, messages, calls, and the immediate environment.

So that checks out with the astrology.

But the deeper I look at this chart, the more disturbing it becomes.

The chart is rising at 18 degrees Gemini. In crime charts, 18 degrees is never a good sign. It shows danger, damage, and the victim being in a compromised condition. When the victim’s house begins at 18 degrees, I immediately start looking for injury, distress, and something seriously wrong with the physical state of the person represented by the Ascendant.

Next, we look at Mercury, because Mercury rules Gemini. That makes Mercury the planet controlling Ellen in this chart.

Mercury is in the 8th house, the house of death.

This is one of the biggest red flags in the chart. In a crime chart, when the ruler of the Ascendant is in the 8th house, it often shows that the victim is already dead, already in danger, or already moving into the death event. So Mercury, which represents Ellen, is in the house that describes death, trauma, crisis, and the irreversible turning point.

What makes this even more disturbing is that when I adjust the chart times, Mercury stays in the 8th house for about 35 more minutes.

That matters.

This makes me think Ellen was killed almost immediately after getting home, and that the later calls, texts, or phone activity may not reflect what we have been told they reflect. Either Ellen was already dead much earlier than the public timeline suggests, or there is another layer to this case that has never been fully explained.

The Gemini rising adds another major clue.

When Gemini rules the 1st house of a crime chart, there is often more than one victim. Gemini is dual. It doubles things. It splits the story. It brings in another person, another message, another voice, another woman, or another version of events.

I do not necessarily think another person was killed alongside Ellen.

But I do think another woman was involved.

Let me explain.

The Perp

In crime charts, the perpetrator is always represented by the Descendant, or the 7th house. In this chart, the 7th house is ruled by Sagittarius.

That means Jupiter is controlling the perpetrator’s energy.

But before we even get to Jupiter, something major is sitting right on the Descendant.

Venus is in Sagittarius, closely conjunct the Descendant.

To me, this shows that at the time Ellen was getting gas, the perpetrator was connected to another woman. Venus on the Descendant brings a female figure directly into the perpetrator’s house. There is nothing subtle about this Venus. Any planet in the 7th house stands out. Venus, a woman, is sitting right on the angle that represents the other person, the opponent, the suspect, and the person Ellen was moving toward.

Venus is at 20 degrees, which is a Scorpio degree. That makes this even more suspicious because Scorpio energy brings in secrecy, sex, obsession, betrayal, control, and hidden relationship dynamics. So this does not look like an innocent female presence. This looks like a secret relationship, a hidden attraction, or another woman attached to the perpetrator’s side of the story.

Also in the 7th house, we have Pluto at 6 degrees Capricorn and the North Node at 0 degrees Capricorn.

This is showing chaos, danger, control, and a major karmic turning point connected to the perpetrator and this woman. Pluto in the perpetrator’s house brings threat, power, fear, obsession, and destruction. Pluto at 6 degrees suggests the danger was maybe a coworker. Was the other woman involved a coworker? The North Node shows where the energy is pulling everything forward. In this chart, Ellen was heading directly toward the place where the perpetrator’s energy was waiting.

The nodal axis makes that very clear.

Ellen’s South Node is behind her, and the North Node is in the perpetrator’s house. That tells me she was leaving one environment and moving directly into danger. She was moving toward the person, the confrontation, and the chaos that was waiting for her.

Now we look at Jupiter, because Jupiter rules Sagittarius and therefore rules the perpetrator in this chart.

Jupiter is in Aries, conjunct Uranus and Lilith. That is explosive.

Just as an FYI, Jupiter tends to represent the husband. Or at least the dominant male attached to the legal, social, or relationship structure. The charts are saying that Jupiter is the perp, and that Jupiter is being impulsive, wild, shocking, and being bad with a woman.

Thats because Jupiter is in Aries, a Mars-ruled sign connected to impulse, anger, aggression, and action. Its also because Jupiter is also conjunct Uranus, which brings shock, rebellion, sudden events, erratic behavior, and something that happens fast.

Then Lilith is there too.

Lilith adds the darker instinctual layer. She brings taboo, rage, sexual tension, defiance, humiliation, and the part of the story that does not want to be controlled or exposed.

So what I am seeing is that the perpetrator’s energy was shocking, impulsive, rebellious, angry, and deeply instinctual. Something was happening that Ellen did not know about yet, but the chart shows the danger was already active.

What makes this even more unsettling is that this energy is in the public part of the chart, but it is intercepted. That means that whatever mischief the perp was involved in, it was top secret. It was not easily accessed, not clearly seen, and not fully understood by the people looking at the case from the outside. But it was shocking and it involved another woman.

Ellen had no idea what she was walking into.

Ellen Gets Home

Now I am going to move the crime chart forward by 34 minutes to see what was happening when Ellen would have been arriving home.

The official timeline has a gap here.

At 1:26 p.m., Ellen was reportedly getting gas. At 2:30 p.m., a phone call was reportedly made from her cell phone to a restaurant. But nobody verified that Ellen was the person speaking on that call. It could have been anyone using her phone.

With Neptune sitting so high in this chart, I do not trust the public timeline. I do not fully trust the evidence as it has been presented either. Neptune at the MC tells me that the public story is distorted, and once I see that placement, I have to question everything that follows.

The only thing I fully trust in this analysis is the chart itself.

The stars do not lie. If I am wrong about this case, it is because I am reading the chart wrong, or because the times I am using are wrong. But I am being careful here as I am watching the energy shift and looking at the timeline through astrology.

So now I am casting the chart for 1:40 p.m.

This is the time that feels important because, astrologically, this is when it looks like Ellen may have encountered or become aware of the other woman.

The 1:40pm Chart

Ellen is now represented by Gemini at 22 degrees.

Again, this is not a comfortable degree to have on the Ascendant in a crime chart. It shows that something critical has happened, the stakes are high, and the energy around the victim has become more intense.

What immediately stands out is the red line going directly from the Ascendant to Venus. That matters.

The Ascendant represents Ellen. Venus represents the secret female figure I was already seeing in the previous chart. So now we have a direct connection between Ellen and Venus. This shows Ellen coming into contact with the woman, or at the very least being in the same vicinity as the secret romance partner.

This is where the chart starts telling a very specific story.

Jupiter, which represents the perpetrator, is no longer intercepted. That means the shocking, rebellious, hidden thing he was doing is no longer completely trapped or concealed. Something has been exposed. Something that was hidden has become visible.

Jupiter is now squaring both Ellen and the perpetrator’s house, creating tension, conflict, and a fight. This is now a moment where two realities crash into each other.

To me, this looks like Ellen caught the perpetrator and the secret female in the act.

She came home early from work, and the chart shows her walking directly into something she was not supposed to see.

The affair partner moving into the 6th house also changes her role. She is no longer sitting openly in the perpetrator’s house as Venus on the Descendant. She has shifted into a more submissive, anxious, practical, and secondary position.

The 6th house can show someone worried, subordinate, helping, cleaning up, following instructions, or doing what they are told. So I do not see this woman as the dominant force in the moment. I see her as someone who became part of the aftermath, someone who was nervous, physically present, and possibly under the control of the perpetrator’s energy.

This looks like Ellen came home early, saw something she was never meant to see, and she wanted out.

The 2:00 p.m. Chart

This is the chart for 2:00 p.m., and by this point, I feel like Ellen was already gone.

The crime was already in the process of being distorted.

Neptune, which I am reading as the case distorter, is making a trine to the Ascendant. Since the Ascendant represents Ellen, this tells me the distortion was now connected directly to her body, her condition, and the way she would be found.

To me, this shows tampering.

Mercury, which represents Ellen, has now moved into the 7th house. That is the perpetrator’s house. Ellen was no longer represented in her own space. She was in the perpetrator’s hands.

The perpetrator is represented by Jupiter, and as a reminder, Jupiter often represents the husband or husband figure in a chart.

Jupiter is at 0 degrees Aries.

That is pure instinct. Pure reaction. Pure impulse.

Jupiter is also conjunct Uranus, which shows that whatever happened was sudden, shocking, and fast. This was not calm. This was not rational. This was explosive.

Lilith is there too, showing the involvement of another woman, even if she was only present, witnessing, being controlled, or being silenced. Lilith is at 23 degrees, which is an Aquarius degree. To me, this suggests that her presence triggered a breakup conversation, a rebellion, or a sudden rupture in the relationship.

The North Node is at 0 degrees Capricorn in the 7th house.

This is making me think the perp had a plan for his life, and Ellen’s reaction to what she discovered destroyed that plan. She was probably going to leave. She was probably going to tell. She had every right to do both.

The chart shows the perpetrator acting out of instinct, control, and panic.

He silenced Ellen.

Uranus is at 27 degrees, which is a Gemini degree. This tells me there may have been help, possibly from a neighbor, a sibling-type figure, or a member of the extended family. Gemini can show the nearby environment, neighbors, messages, movement, and multiple people involved in the chain of events.

The worst part is that Jupiter and Uranus are conjunct the Part of Fortune.

That means he is getting away with it. His lies are in place, with a little help from extended family or neighbors.

This is why I am going to ignore most of the official timeline after this point. By 2:00 p.m., the chart is already showing distortion, tampering, and a story being shaped.

Was the 40-minute workout at the gym set up as an alibi?

Based on these charts, yes.

Were the texts sent to create an alibi?

I think they were.

Did he get help covering up this case?

I think he did.

Did that help include people in positions of authority?

The chart makes me think it did.

Was the door actually locked the way the story says it was?

I do not trust that part of the timeline either.

At this point, checking the charts after 2:00 p.m. becomes tricky because the energy is already contaminated. Neptune is too active. The public story is already being shaped. The evidence is already entering the fog.

But I am still going to check the 911 call at 6:30 p.m., because that chart will show what was being revealed, what was being hidden, and what story was officially being born.

The 911 Call

In this chart, the perpetrator is represented by the Aquarius rising at 23 degrees, which is also an Aquarius degree.

This tells me he did what he did because he felt entitled to do it. Aquarius at 23 degrees shows a person acting from detachment, rebellion, self-interest, and a belief that the rules do not apply to him. To me, this shows someone who believed the victim was about to ruin his life, and he acted because he felt he had to protect the life he wanted.

Aquarius has two rulers, so we need to look at both Saturn and Uranus to understand what the perpetrator was doing.

Saturn retrograde in Libra in the 3rd house shows him connected to local people, neighbors, messages, phone calls, the nearby environment, and extended family. The 3rd house is not far away. It is close. It is local. It is the hallway, the building, the phone, the door, the message, the nearby witness, and the people around the scene.

Saturn being retrograde tells me this was not clean. It shows something being worked backward, delayed, revised, controlled, or restructured. In Libra, this connects to relationships, appearances, legal balance, and the attempt to make something look acceptable.

Uranus, the modern ruler of Aquarius, is in the 8th house.

This shows the sudden violent event, the secret, the crisis, and the truth buried underneath the official version. His actions were shocking, but by the time of the 911 call, the shock had already been pushed into the hidden house. The real event was no longer being shown openly. It had already gone underground.

But here is the kicker.

Neptune, the distorter, is sitting right on the Descendant.

That means everything coming through the twerpy perp was fogged, altered, and deceptive. In this chart, the Descendant shows the person he is speaking about, the story he is presenting, and the version of Ellen being offered to the outside world.

With Neptune there, I do not believe the story being told on that call. He was full of lies during that infamous 911 call, and I think any astrologer who looks at the charts would agree that the 911 call was a performance.

Then we have the Part of Fortune on the IC, also known as the end of the matter.

That is the part that makes my stomach drop.

The IC shows where the story lands. It shows the root, the private truth, the end of the matter, and the outcome. With the Part of Fortune sitting there, the chart shows that he was protected at the end of the story. He was going to benefit from the way this case closed.

He was going to get away with it.

To this day, he did.

I pray that Ellen’s family gets justice.

What do you think happened to Ellen?

Also if anyone enjoys reading charts, I would love to hear your opinions!

I finally finished watching The Crash documentary on Netflix, because for the past week, I’ve seen people all over the internet spiraling into theories about this case.

Honestly? I get why.

To catch everyone up: on July 31, 2022, in Strongsville, Ohio, 17-year-old Mackenzie Shirilla was driving a Toyota Camry when she accelerated to 100 mph and crashed into a brick building. Her two passengers, 20-year-old Dominic Russo and 19-year-old Davion Flanagan, were killed.

The question at the center of this case is chillingly simple:

Did Mackenzie crash the car on purpose?

Was this a calculated act of murder? Was it a tragic accident? Was something medical going on?

Her family has claimed the crash may have been connected to her POTS, a disorder of the autonomic nervous system. Meanwhile, people online have speculated about a possible argument inside the car, wondering whether anger, panic, or some kind of emotional snap could have led to those final seconds.

Of course, Mackenzie says she doesn’t remember the crash at all.

To be fair, I’m not seeing many people confidently argue that this was purely an accident, outside of her parents and supporters. Most of the discussion keeps circling back to one haunting question:

What was going through Mackenzie’s mind in the moment she accelerated?

That is the part everyone seems obsessed with. What was happening internally. Was there intention? Rage? dissociation? fear? impulse? nothing at all?

So I decided to look at it through the lens I know best, and that is creating an even chart using forensic astrology.

When we use forensic astrology, we don’t need anyone’s birth date or birth time. We don’t need the perpetrators or victims natal charts.

All we need is to create an event chart at a timestamp for the event itself. From there, we can cast an event chart and analyze the transits happening in that exact moment.

In other words, we’re looking at the sky over the crime scene.

I created the event chart using 5:36 AM, the moment the car crossed the T-intersection with the accelerator pressed all the way to the floor. This was the final stretch before the car hit the brick Plidco Building head-on, with no brakes applied.

So here it is, and the chart for that moment has a lot to say.

Mackenzie at the Moment

In the chart, Mackenzie is represented by Cancer rising, which shows she was acting out of emotion. I mean, that’s pretty obvious, but astrology is adding up. The ascendant is at 28 degrees, and that is also a Cancer degree. That is making her actions at the moment even more highly charged, which is also pretty obvious. So let’s look even deeper.

The 28th degree of Cancer is giving an image of ”A muse weighing twins in golden scales”.

I am reading that there are two versions of Mackenzie in one body. One version sees herself as innocent, emotional, or out of control, and another version that is responsible for what happened.

This degree of Cancer also hints at themes of living a double life.

Mackenzie was likely someone who has been living between two versions of herself long before the crime happened. On the surface, there may have been one identity: the familiar girl, the girlfriend, the friend, the person others thought they knew. But underneath that, the symbol suggests another self carrying feelings, impulses, resentments, fears, or desires that were not fully visible. The “twins” become these two lives existing side by side: the public self and the hidden self.

Also at the time of her accelerating to the crash, the asteroid “Persephone” was rising right on Cancer. Persephone is the archetype of the girl at the threshold between worlds. She belongs partly to innocence and youth, but also to the underworld, consequence, secrecy, trauma, and irreversible transformation. On the Ascendant, that archetype becomes the face of the moment. It suggests that Mackenzie was n moving through a psychological doorway where the familiar version of herself was slipping away, and another version, one connected to shadow, control, fear, loss, or emotional extremity, was taking over. This does not necessarily mean she was consciously thinking in clear words, “I am descending.” It could point to a state of possession by emotion: being pulled under by something internal, crossing from ordinary conflict into an underworld act.

Persephone on the Ascendant also fits the feeling of a split identity. Persephone is both maiden and queen, victim and ruler, innocent figure and underworld sovereign. Applied to Mackenzie, it can suggest a mind caught between helplessness and agency, between “something happened to me” and “I made something happen.” That is psychologically chilling because it mirrors the double-life theme: the girl others recognized on the surface, and the hidden underworld self capable of entering a much darker reality.

What was causing her to bring these two sides of her together is represented by the Moon in Virgo. It was placed at the end of the second house, which is all about self-esteem.

Virgo is the sign that notices everything. It scans, studies, and criticizes. It picks up on the smallest shifts in tone, energy, body language, and emotional atmosphere.

So right before the crash, Mackenzie felt herself and her dark side merge. While at the same time being led by a Virgo energy that was trying to put logic over it, and make sense of all of the emotions.

Virgo energy was controlling Cancer’s raw feelings, flowing everywhere. This created a tense mental state where emotion was filtered through criticism, resentment, and nervous tension. Plus, in the second house, her self-esteem took a hard hit.

Dominic Russo and Davion Flanagan represented by the DSC in Capricorn

In this event chart, Dominic Russo and Davion Flanagan are represented by the Descendant in Capricorn.

Capricorn on the Descendant gives Dominic and Davion a more serious, controlled, and restrained energy. Capricorn is grounded, cautious, and more focused on reality than emotion. Because of this, I do not read them as actively arguing with Mackenzie in the moment of the crash. Their energy feels more contained than confrontational. They may have been tense, concerned, or trying to process what was happening, but the Capricorn DSC suggests they were not the main source of emotional escalation.

Since Saturn rules Capricorn, Saturn becomes the ruler of Dominic and Davion in this chart. Saturn being placed in the 8th house is extremely significant, because the 8th house is connected to death, crisis, trauma, and irreversible endings. This placement shows that the fate of the people represented by the Descendant was tied directly to danger and mortality in this event.

Saturn at 22 degrees adds even more weight to the interpretation. In crime astrology, 22 degrees is often viewed as a heavy and destructive degree, sometimes associated with catastrophic outcomes. With Saturn ruling the passengers and sitting in the 8th house at 22 degrees, the symbolism points toward the worst possible result unfolding. It does not suggest that Dominic or Davion was creating the conflict. Instead, it shows them as being caught in a severe, fatal circumstance that was already moving toward an unavoidable ending.

12th House Placements: Hidden Motive

Venus and Lilith are conjunct in the 12th house, which immediately points to hidden motives, suppressed desires, and things operating beneath the surface. The 12th house rules the unconscious, secrets, self-undoing, isolation, and the parts of the psyche that are hidden even from the person themselves. With Venus and Lilith here together, there is a strong suggestion that whatever was happening in this moment was not about what was visible in the car.

Whatever was going through Mackenzie’s mind may have been rooted in something much deeper than a sudden conflict. Almost like something was planned in advance

In crime charts, Venus in the 12th shows a distorted relationship with love, attention, value, or being seen. Lilith in the 12th adds a darker, more rejected or defiant energy. Together, Venus and Lilith describe hidden resentment, obsession, shame, desire, or a need to reclaim power in a way that is not openly expressed. Since they are placed in the 12th house, these feelings may have been concealed, repressed, or acted out through self-destructive behavior.

Mackenzie had been operating from a place of emotional darkness, private fantasy, or hidden desperation rather than from a clear external confrontation.

I am reading from the chart that this was something that was planned, it was self-serving, and there was definitely a self-undoing motive here, maybe a self unaliving.

The Desire for Fame

The 12th house placements in the event chart are making a sextile to Mars and the North Node in the 10th house.

This is going to connect her hidden moments to a public motivation or recognition.

Mars gives the hidden motive, action, aggression, and force. The North Node in the 10th points toward public visibility, reputation, legacy, and being remembered. This makes the motive feel bigger than a private emotional collapse, and more of a desire to make an impact.

Because the 10th house is the house of fame, status, and recognition, this aspect suggests that the hidden 12th house motive was somehow connected to being seen or remembered.

So this chart is saying that she had a concealed motive involving recognition and fame.

Since this energy was in Taurus, I think this fatal crash was carefully planned over quite some time.

Also, the North Node is here in Taurus, which represents what was gained from this crash. Uranus is here in Taurus as well, tightly conjunct with the North Node. They are both at 18 degrees. When I see any placement at 18 degrees in a crime chart, it gives a level of pre-planning, but in a very diabolical way.

Taurus placements at 18 degrees are represented by the image of “A Newly Formed Continent Emerging from the Ocean”.

The crash created a new world around her, one where she would be seen, remembered, punished, contained, and permanently separated from the life she had before.

The “new continent” represents the new life that emerged after the crash, and that may include jail, public fame, the world talking about her, watching her social media, as well as the destruction of Mackenzie’s previous identity.

Jail may symbolically function as the new continent: a foreign, isolated, irreversible place where her old life no longer exists.

Also based on news reports, it has turned into a place where she is super popular, dating lots of women, walks on the track, tv nights in the lounge, and all the binge shops at the canteen. Its like she got the fame and attention she wanted, in a new locked-up continent.

Neptune’s Sinister Influence

I think the most chilling part of this entire chart is the Neptune placement. Neptune is in Pisces, in the 9th house, and to me, this is where the chart gives me the complete chills.

Neptune is the planet of distortion, illusion, delusion, fantasy, fog, intoxication, and altered perception. It blurs reality. It dissolves boundaries. It can make something feel fated, spiritual, justified, or unreal, even when the physical outcome is devastating.

In this chart, Neptune is making a trine to Mackenzie and a sextile to Dominic and Davion. So Neptune is directly activating Mackenzie while also touching the men.

In many crime and event charts, Neptune can represent drugs, alcohol, intoxication, confusion, lies, or a lack of clear awareness. But here, it feels darker than that. Here is why.

Neptune is at 25 degrees of Pisces, connected to the symbol “A New Moon That Divides Its Influences.” This degree is about choice, free will, and the divide between one person’s path and another person’s path. It speaks to the idea that each soul has the right to choose what comes next, and that true freedom requires allowing others to have that same choice.

But in this chart, Neptune is retrograde, and it’s in the 9th house of higher knowledge, spirituality, religion, philosophy, and the expansion of the mind.

So maybe I need to put on my tin foil hat for this part, but that totally changes the tone. I think based on this chart, that Mackenzie here has been guided, taken over, influenced, or pulled by something larger than her.

This could fall into the realm of entity possession, ritual influence, Santería, Voodoo, a demonic attachment, Illuminati symbolism, or some occult force operating behind the scenes.

The two different versions of Mackenzie, as represented by 28 degrees, were probably her own consciousness, vs this higher (or should I say lower) power that had also inhabited her body.

I am reading from the crime chart for entertainment purposes only, don’t come for me, but the chart is telling me that Mackenzie was connected with a higher power that had control over her mind. Got her to crash, on purpose, and made some sacrifices for fame.

This part is speculation, but maybe that’s why she didn’t die during the crash. I saw those crime photos, and her survival has never made sense to me. But maybe this lower power put protection over her, as part of the “deal with the devil”.

All for a new level of fame. A new life, being the queen of the prison yard, where everybody is talking about her. Including me.

After all, Mackenzie was living as Persephone, connected with the underworld.

Tin foil hat off. Time to take a salt bath, that girl really scares me.

What do you think happened?

Something about the recent viral video of the McDonald’s CEO sampling his own burger gave me a serious case of the giggles.

In this video, the CEO of McDonald’s, Chris Kempczinski, or as he introduced himself, “Chris K”, tried to be relatable and filmed a video sampling the new McArch burger, or as he called it, the new “product”.

His description of the product was full of some major cringe. He started the video holding the burger and saying how they tested this product in Germany, Portugal, and Canada, and how he loves this product, and it is so good. That he loves it. But this was before he tried it.. I don’t think I even needed to tap into my own intuition to know he was lying through his teeth. Not about Germany, Portugal, or even Canada, but how he loves it, and it is so good. He looked uncomfortable saying it, and his forced smile reminded me of the McDonalds charters Grimace.

He then said he is going to do a tasting of this product right now, and just so we know, it’s going to be his lunch. Because he loves it so much! Even though this oddly seems to be his first tasting of the product.

This was confirmed when he opened the box and looked. “Wow, holy cow, this is a big burger,” he exclaimed. Even though I didn’t appreciate the holy cow expression, I did feel a sense of relief that he finally admitted that the product was a burger.

When he took a bite of the burger, he said “wow, this is so good” and he not so micro-expressed a head shake for no.

“Its so unlike anything else on our menu. It’s a delicious product”. Great Chris K, I am glad you “love” your new product.

During this dark time in our country and world, I really appreciated the laughs this video brought. I envisioned the multiple meetings it took to plan this video. I imagined how the VP of Marketing got this genius idea to have their Grand King CEO be so relatable, and have him eat their new McArch on camera. If our clean-cut, fearless leader ate this product on camera and loved it, everyone would love it. Most of the marketing team did what any good corporate team did during a closed-door meeting, and gassed the VP. The room erupts in agreement. “Brilliant, Barbara.” Until someone quietly asks, “Isn’t Chris a pescatarian?” The room goes silent. Barbara grimaces. The meeting moves on. Sally goes on a PIP.

This video reflects Pluto in Aquarius

What I really thought after my laughing fit was over is that this video is a great example of Pluto going into Aquarius.

Pluto is the slowest-moving planet, but also the most destructive one. That’s what its energy does when it hits Earth. It exposes things. It destroys things that are working for our world. It shows us where the power is, and even gives us opportunities to take it into our own hands. When Pluto started its long journey through Aquarius at the end of 2024, it had a large goal in mind. That is us, the collective, the average person who pays bills. Maybe some of us are lucky enough to be sitting in a closed-door boardroom meeting kissing the ass of all the Vice Presidents and Directors to make a livable wage. Many of us are scraping some, some not so much. Pluto moving through Aquarius is highlighting the unfairness of these differences to open the eyes of the collective. It is the beginning of destroying this unfair gap.

For one, this is a sign of the collapse of untouchable authority. In older eras, corporate leaders felt distant and insulated. Pluto in Aquarius dissolves that insulation. Everyone has a phone.

Everyone has an opinion. Everyone can stitch the clip with their own opinions, and even mockery. Power is no longer protected by distance. In today’s social media, relatability is pretty much one of the important things for successful views, and the high-powered people in suits now need to talk into their cameras, too. In doing so, it exposes lots of truths. A CEO is technically one of the most powerful figures in a corporate hierarchy. But when this video hit the internet, the power dynamic flipped. The crowd decided what that bite meant. Pluto in Aquarius says power is no longer top-down. It is distributed. The meme page has as much force as the boardroom. Sorry Barbara!

The Event Chart of the Video

Whenever something big comes out on the internet, I do what I do. I went into the HTML of it all to fish out the timestamp of the video. I drew a chart of when the video was posted to get some more “holy cow” moments. This is what I found.

Above is an event chart of the moment Chris K uploaded this video to Instagram. The thing that makes event astrology so cool is that you don’t need to know anyone’s birthdays or birthtimes to get all the good information. All you need is a timestamp of the event. In astrology, the moment a video is posted to the internet is the birth of the event. Reading a natal chart of that moment is very, very telling.

Here I am going to tell you what I see about that video based on the astrology of when it was posted.

This chart has a Libra Rising at 0 degrees. Libra is all about balancing the scales, and in this case, adjusting your actions to satisfy other people. Since it’s at 0 degrees, it’s very exaggerated. So at this moment, Chris K was very much putting on a show to please other people. Maybe the board room people who carefully scheduled a meeting with him, to present the idea of him eating this burger, that he loves so much, for his lunch on camera. The meeting room probably has fruit platters and fancy charcuterie boards because everyone needs to be on their best behavior when the CEO will be al the meeting. Let’s bribe Chris K with the food he actually eats, and throw in some McDonalds chocolate chip cookies for good measure.

This video has a Libra Rising

The Libra Rising at 0 degrees on this chart means that Chris K accepted that bribe (or request, I don’t want to start rumors here), and put on a show on an iPhone, pretending to be something he is not, for the sake of business. The video did have a clean, almost clinical design in the background. They may have filmed in one of their cleanest conference rooms, with light colors, mastering Virgo energy, and now getting Chris K to sell his product. But did anyone catch the “Petty Way” street sign behind him? It was actually supposed to be a long street name, but Chris K’s head was blocked, keeping the word “Petty” behind him during most of the video. What a fun Libra touch, putting a sign in the back for a little bit of lightheartedness.

Since this chart has a Libra Rising, the planet Venus, which basically tells Libra energy what to do, is what we look at to represent Chris K ... and oh my God, you guys, Venus here is at 22 degrees. 22!!!! In modern astrology, 22 degrees is known as the “kill or be killed degree”. That degree has long been associated with heightened survival awareness in astrology circles. It carries a kind of hyper-alert energy, where perception and responses run really big.

Venus in Aquarius energy usually gives sexy mad scientists. But let me rephrase that thinking for this case. Chris K does look very logical, process-oriented, and like the kind of man who constantly checks his watch, then the weather, and reads long stacks of papers occasionally highlighting a word. In the world of auras, his aura would be super green. At the same time, this video grabbed the attention of the collective. What was meant to be a post on the corporate page to advertise that originally sesame seed poppy seed double patty burger, or product, was a video that went viral, getting us all to stare at Chris K for at least 15 seconds, wondering about him. As a collective. Oh, so Aquarius. Since it’s at 22 degrees, he'd better have crushed that video. He better have killed it with that degree, Oh else, what will happen, is his video instead got killed, by us, all while our necks were down gazing at our cell phones.

The video has an Aquarius Stellium in the 5th house

That Venus, which represents Chris K, is part of a 5th house stellium. In an event chart, those other planets so close to him will likely represent other people who were important during that moment. Maybe Barbara was there. But definitely at least 3 other influential people in the room with him during filming, and when I say influential, I mean they were only influential to this video, or to the land of McDonalds. Two were mostly men, and the other one could have been any gender, but likely younger than Chris K.

In this room, they likely had the mindset of coming together, as our own little collective, being creative, and doing this advertisement. The 5th house rules performances meant to spark enjoyment. A CEO describing and eating a burger was staged as something light, playful, and promotional. The goal was clearly to create a moment of visible pleasure. But what that moment did was turn entertainment for others. The facial expressions, pauses, tone of voice, and not-so-low-key disgust at the burger. It all becomes raw material for memes and commentary.

Since this is all ruled by Aquarius, I am going to draw attention to the planets that rule Aquarius to see what is causing them to try to create all of this manufactured joy to be relatable. Saturn is what traditionally tells Aquarius why to do what they are doing. In this event chart, Saturn is conjunct the descendant. The descendant representing “the other”, and in the chart, representing the Big Arch Burger, you know, the product. Saturn is ruling what’s limiting Chris K. The chart suggests tension between the performance of enjoyment and his experience. This placement is pretty penetrating (Pisces 28 degrees), so it seemed that, besides trying hard, he literally had no joy during filming. Just discomfort. Uranus is the other planet that tells Aquarius what to do. Representing the shock of it all. In this event chart, Uranus is in Taurus in the video’s 8th house. Meaning that the reception of this video would be shocking to their stability. Their reliability in a brand. To put out an inauthentic video.

The Mood of the Chart.

Neptune is what represents lying. It being in the 7th house of this chart shows he was lying about his words on the product. He was creating an illusion. Aries showed it hit fast, and it was charged. A charged illusion. Jupiter is going through the 10th house in this chart. Representing the big impact that is had in the world. This video got noticed in a big way. But Jupiter being in retrograde meant they got noticed in a way that was maybe for a different reason. The world noticed the lack of his joy. That huge lack of joy is also making a sextile to the Moon of this chart.

The Moon in this chart represents the needs of Chris K in this video. It’s in his 12th house, suggesting that he was feeling deeply critical at the moment and noticing every detail. He felt like his ego and who he was were pushed aside in order for him to focus on entertaining the collective. The king of McDonald’s. This contributed to its blow-up in public.

The current Eclipse

This current eclipse with Virgo and Pisces came a few weeks after the video was posted. But during the eclipse, this clip went viral. This eclipse also activates Chris K’s Moon, leading him to his North Node in Pisces. By posting a video that was supposed to show us something simple. A powerful CEO enjoying a burger from the company he leads. Instead, it got deleted from TikTok. Because it ended up showing us something much more interesting.

In the era of Pluto in Aquarius, the crowd decides whether a performance feels real. A single facial expression can undo an entire marketing plan. The boardroom may script the moment, but the internet writes the ending, all from an awkward bite.

I have always been a big fan of Jim Carrey before he was even Jim Carrey.

I first saw him as James Carrey. I don’t think I have ever laughed as hard at the TV as I did the night I first noticed him. He was on a popular primetime sketch comedy show in the 90s called In Living Color. In one sketch, he played a tourist who happened to be standing behind a newscaster filming a segment. He started by making funny faces at the camera. As the newscaster kept rambling, James’ expressions grew more dramatic, until he broke into full dance moves and eventually brought an entire marching band into the background. To me, it was comic gold every time he appeared on screen. The same was true for so many of his movies as he became the Jim Carrey who defined my young adulthood.

When I say Jim Carrey, I mean the comedian and actor we have all known and loved. We have seen him evolve a lot over the years, as demonstrated by his natal Pluto in Virgo in the 10th house. Conjunct Lilith. Its always eye catching and perfectly done. But who is he really?

There was an appearance by Jim Carrey on Jimmy Kimmel Live! Back in 2014, which recently resurfaced and went viral again. In the clip, he makes a hand gesture around his mouth and jokingly calls it “the secret symbol of the Illuminati,” saying he is “sick and tired of the secrets and the lies” and that it is time everyone knew about this symbol. It was said he did it while promoting Dumb and Dumber. But still, it was odd.

We also saw him become associated with anti-vaccine activism when, in 2015, he criticized California’s SB277 law, which removed personal belief exemptions for vaccines. His tweets calling vaccines “toxic” sparked backlash from medical professionals and the public. He later clarified that he was not anti-vaccine but anti-toxin, though critics remained unconvinced.

In 2016, he was sued by his former girlfriend’s estranged husband and mother in wrongful death lawsuits, alleging he provided the medication involved in her overdose. In 2017, Carrey gave a surreal interview saying “there is no me,” questioning identity and meaning. The clip went viral. Some praised his philosophical commentary. Others speculated about his mental health.

Then, recently, he became a household name again. Carrey appeared at the 51st César Awards in Paris on February 26, 2026, to accept an honorary award recognizing his long career in film and television. He walked the red carpet, gave a speech almost entirely in French, and publicly acknowledged his daughter, grandson, and longtime partner, whom he called his “companion.” It was his first major public appearance of the year.

Fans were surprised he spoke French so fluently. But more than that, people said he looked completely different. Very different. A different face shape. Different eyes. A different hairline. Speculation about Botox or surgery surfaced. Some people suggested he might be sick. Others said he has simply aged, and we should leave him alone; we are all jerks. Then, of course, there were the more extreme claims: that he is a clone, that it is some kind of soul transfer, that a younger actress is playing him.

In this article, I am going to look at his natal chart. Then I will examine the transits on the night of the awards to see if anything stands out, and whether astrology offers insight into what might be unfolding around him.

Jim is a Scorpio Rising

People tend to get surprised when I say how hilarious Scorpios are.

They are psychologically funny. One that understands the human psyche. They can read energy so well; they know how to find that one play or that one face that will get you. Its like finding your ticklish spot but with words instead of physical touch. Their jokes can be more extreme or dramatic than your average jokester. Scorpio Risings often has extremely good facial control, penetrating eye contact, and the ability to flip between comedy and existential depth instantly. It can almost be uncomfortable at times, because they make the shock value funny.

Since his Scorpio is rising at 15 degrees, it even amplifies his facial expressions, which takes him to a more extreme level with the facials. Placements at this degree of Scorpio are focused on the transformative side that Scorpio Risings have. They tend to be more mysterious at first, or a little secretive. They are usually polite, sweet, or sometimes just quiet and observant. Because that’s what they are doing. Observing and getting right down to the deepest parts of your psyche. But then they make a happy face, and suddenly your feelings for them transform. Usually into something even more positive, but it could also mean, at times, a more malicious grimace.

Carey has his Neptune placement conjunct his Scorpio rising. Neptune is the ultimate illusionist energy, where it can distort things, but also make you see things out of this world. So when Carey smiles at you, it’s giving the ultimate theatre kid. Your whole first impressions change into something that can put you into a different world, and one that he can shape with his talent.

What’s interesting when I look at his chart is that there are a few very different sides to him, and some of the biggest ones, we, the public, do not see that easily.

His Sun is in Capricorn

Behind his facial expressions, comedy, and the worlds he pulls you into, is his Sun, Venus, and Mars, all in Capricorn. This side of him is way more down to earth, serious, toned down, no nonsense, maybe even a little on the colder side. The Capricorn Mars at the end of his second house shows how he will work until his body begs him to stop. Especially when it comes to making money and working with his vocal talents. His Capricorn placements are supportive of the silly and dramatic front he puts on. He uses them to become a master at his craft.

Then there is another side of him, his Aquarius side that comes out more around his extended family, coworkers are peers. That side is more different; it’s more intellectual, rebellious, and has its own quirky side. Maybe a bit disconnected. This is something we probably have trouble seeing him be like, unless we actually know him, because it was different than the funny part he puts forward as we see him. This side of him is where his brain and thinking are energetically tied to. It’s the way he is actually thinking to himself, and speaking to the people around him.

His Moon in Gemini

His Gemini Moon is showing a part of him that not many people see at all. This side of him only really comes out around people he is really close to. Even more than usual since the including just the Moon being more private, the 8th house is super super private.

When he gets like this, it’s less serious, more charmingish, it’s suddenly silly again. But a different kind of silly than the dramatic, intense facials he gives, and the ability to bring us into any role he plays. This side is quicker and more observant. Intelligent and sharp humor. Lots to say. Has jokes. Makes fun of everything. When he really lets loose, maybe he is with people he is really close with, a new humorous side comes out, and since it’s in the 8th house, it’s likely darker humor than we are used to. The 8th house is comfortable joking about death, power, secrets, sex, psychological wounds, and ego deaths. But since this is where his Gemini Moon is, this side needs to come out often, and it's hard to hold back at the end of the day.

Uranus on his MC

The wildest side about him is connected to things we do know about him. He has his MC in Leo, which shows a long, bright, not very shy, and consistent position in the public eye. Really close to it sits his Uranus retrograding at 29 degrees Leo. 29 at any sign intensifies everything. It adds urgency, culmination energy, and a sense that the archetype must be expressed fully. It being so public shows we know his career is defined by extreme pivots, from the Mask, to The Truman Show, to Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind. It also suggests he has public moments that disrupt everyone’s day by talking about them, like his recent appearance. Uranus at the midheaven says that he goes through public moments that feel fated or explosive. His legacy is tied to disruption itself. Or he may be remembered as someone who broke molds, also being closely connected to Ariana Grande. In Taurus, there is a sense of abundance, or money tied to these events. Maybe, as the conspiracy theorists say, he is playing a part in Hollywood? That person is playing Jim Carrey. The real person isn’t actually Jim Carey. Didn’t Jim Carey say that himself? Was the next script he received from the shadow government one that said to change “actors”? Was it an actor-comedian from Kentucky?

Jim’s Transits at the César Awards (51st Ceremony) February 26, 2026

In this section, I am going to look at his transits for the awards where he gave that speech. I am using the publicly available chart on astro-seek, and I ran his transits for 2/26/26, at 8:45 pm in Paris, France. Here is what I see.

The Moon that night was in Cancer. It was in a much more hidden part of his chart, hiding right behind the witty, quick and maybe darker side where his Moon is, but the more emotional part that stands behind It was activated that night, and it was able to channel directly, and almost automatically to the funny faces and personality he usually puts forward, the one using his Scorpio Rising to make everyone laugh, like it his older comedy movies.

Cancer is a raw feeling. It is memory, lineage, belonging. So while the world saw the public figure receiving an honor, there may have been something softer underneath it all. A reflective mood. A sense of looking back over the arc of his life. So the collective’s attention on him activated a hidden corner of him, which brought out big controlled expressions on his face,

At the same time, his Neptune placement was activated, right on his rising, so this was a change that we all saw together. Neptune in the 1st house blurs identity. It makes the physical presence porous, shape-shifting, and elastic. In Scorpio, it adds intensity, magnetism, and psychological depth.

This energy, in a way, dissolved from our memories of Jim Carrey. It adds intensity, which induces a psychological analysis of him. His face becomes fluid, his body becomes exaggerated. His persona changes. This transit, even though it only lasts a couple of hours, gave him a more hypnotic screen presence, an emotional mystique, and the ability to morph expressions dramatically. Even a slight otherworldly quality, and that might get some nods from the people who accused him of being inhabited by an alien.

Moon transits are usually the most powerful ones that you can look at to explain exactly how it is feeling at that moment. In the background of all this, Uranus in Taurus was making a square to his natal Uranus in Leo. This happens in your early 60’s, where your own Uranus tends to get shaken up by the shocks and upgrades the world is going through right now. It asks questions like, what parts of your life were never fully authentic, and where did you compromise your individuality? A bit of liberation tends to happen at this time in people's lives. Since Jim Carrey’s natal Uranus was at 29 degrees in his public house, this is high stakes and probably dramatic. This could look like stepping back from Hollywood expectations, publicly rejecting the celebrity system, reinventing reputation, but leaning into personal truth, instead of audience demands. I think we were seeing part of his darker Gemini side showing through, and the side even surprises people who know him in real life.

Then, to make this even more dramatic, Transiting Mars, the planet of aggression, drive, get what you want, and fight, is in Aquarius, right in front of the most private part of his energy, that part that literally nobody sees except for him, and shocks it. Then it pulls at his natal Uranus in Leo, right into the most public part of him. The side that we see and remember him as. A shocking change blows our minds. It also looks like whatever it is, will bring this most private side more out and exposed,

Then we have the South Node right over his natal Pluto in Virgo. This is suggesting that whatever is going on with Jim Carrey may just be the beginning of many events that will change how the collective, and people in general, see some more truths about celebrity culture. What is the true price of fame, and what does it mean to pay to play?

He currently has so many planets transiting his 4th house, which is his most private energy. This is the side of him that nobody sees, because it usually only comes out when he is alone. It is very interesting because this can only mean two things. At the night we saw him accept the award:

1. The person we are seeing, or the filter we are seeing of him, is his most private side coming out. One that will surprise even people who know him. Know him well.

2. It’s not Jim Carrey, because the real Jim Carrey was likely home that night. Look at all of those 4th house transits. Or he was hidden, and another energy has taken over. This is a Pisces stellium after all.

Let me know in the comments what you think!

Also check out my Etsy shop, linked in my bio, if you want me to write you a letter about your natal chart, or transit chart, or a deep dive into a part.

I have been wondering for a while why I am so much more productive during a Mercury retrograde. It has been one of those lingering thoughts in the back of my mind, but I never stopped long enough to really examine it.

Then Mercury slipped into retrograde in Pisces, and the realization arrived all at once. I was not actively analyzing anything. The thought just floated up while I was watching an episode of Homeland with my husband. It felt less like logic and more like a download.

There is a common idea in astrology that people born with natal planets in retrograde tend to think more clearly when that planet goes retrograde by transit. For example, someone born during a Mercury retrograde may think in a slower, more nonlinear way throughout life, but when Mercury retrogrades again, they feel sharp and aligned.

That explanation does not quite fit me. I was born with all of my planets direct, unless you want to count Chiron and a handful of asteroids. My mind naturally moves forward. Quickly. When Mercury is direct, my thoughts race. But when Mercury retrogrades, something different happens. Thoughts from the past surface. I plan more deliberately. I move through ideas with unusual precision.

Socially, though, retrogrades can trip me up. During the last one in Scorpio, Mercury was conjunct my natal Scorpio placements, and I found myself blurting out intense observations. In my head, I thought I was being warm and honest. In reality, some of it landed sharper than I intended. At one social event, I made a comment that felt harmless to me. My friends reassured me it was not rude, but one person clearly took it that way and left. That is where I can misstep during retrogrades. My honesty speeds ahead of my awareness.

In reality, my mind moves very fast. My Scorpio Mercury is conjunct Uranus, so I think and read the way you would watch a YouTube video set to 2.0x speed. It is not a flex. If anything, it makes me scattered. I miss details. I have to reread things multiple times to catch what I skipped. The thoughts that come through can feel electric and profound, but only when I manage to grab them before they disappear.

A lot of the time, it feels like the whole world is operating at that same speed. Everything moves quickly. Conversations move quickly. Trends move quickly. Ideas move quickly. And somewhere in me there is this pressure to outspeed it all, as if slowing down would mean getting left behind. It is a constant, low hum of urgency.

That is the pressure that lifts during a Mercury retrograde.

I can actually feel the tempo change. When my internet lags, I breathe instead of spiraling. When uploads take longer, I do not feel behind. Something in the collective rhythm softens, and psychologically that takes pressure off of me. Yes, communication can get tangled. Yes, intentions can be misread. But in that slowdown, I become deeply productive.

Here is what I have discovered, coming from someone with all natal planets direct: Mercury retrograde is not my season to start something new. It is my season to finish.

I am one of those people who always has multiple creative projects open. Throughout the year, my mind is full of ideas. There are celebrities and public figures I want to analyze astrologically. Books I want to write. Crimes I want to study through a forensic lens. Instagram series waiting to be built. Most of these projects are not empty fantasies. They are 70 or 80 percent complete.

Then I find a flaw. Or an insecurity. Or I spiral into imposter syndrome, question my identity, and quietly abandon them. They collect digital dust in my iCloud until the next retrograde.

When Mercury goes retrograde, something shifts. I can suddenly see the solution instead of the flaw. I refine instead of reject. I get ideas for how to finish instead of reasons to quit. Even the imposter syndrome loosens its grip. The trick, for me, is not to chase brand new creatives ideas, but to return to the ones I already began.

Retrogrades are completion seasons.

I see this most clearly in my music. I have played guitar and sung for over ten years, on and off. One of my biggest insecurities has always been memorizing songs. I can remember chord progressions easily, but when the verses, bridges, choruses, and lyrics stack together, my brain short circuits. I freeze.

But during Mercury retrograde, something fascinating happens. If I revisit a song I once tried to learn and gave up on, I can suddenly play it. There is one song in particular that used to overwhelm me. It was long. Dense. Full of words. At one point I considered making flashcards for the lyrics like I was cramming for Biology 101.

Recently, during retrograde, I listened to it twice and half the song was there. There was no force. No drilling, and absolutely no flash cards! Just returning and listening. That is where the magic lives for me.

So here is some advice on how to actually work with the energy of a Mercury retrograde, especially one in Pisces.

1. First, think about something you were not brave enough to do in the past. Something that required your voice, your ideas, or your intellect. Maybe it was a piece of writing, a conversation, a creative project, or even a perspective you were afraid to express. Revisit it gently. Do not force it. Do not try to prove anything. Just feel your way through it. Retrogrades are not about pushing forward. They are about returning with more wisdom. You may be surprised at how easily a new solution appears when you stop trying to outrun yourself.

2. Next, revisit your dreams. If you keep a dream journal, this is an incredibly powerful time to reread old entries. You might notice symbols you missed before or gain sudden insight into something from your childhood or emotional past. Pisces heightens symbolic language, and Mercury retrograde sharpens reflection. If you do not journal, think of a recurring dream or one that stayed with you for years. Write it down now. Look up the symbols. Talk it through with a trusted friend. You could even schedule a call where you both unpack meaningful dreams from your past. Insight multiplies when it is shared. Often, the meaning was always there. You are just ready to see it.

3. This is also the best time to practice non reaction. It is not the easiest skill to develop, but once you do, you no longer have to fear someone’s tone, a rude remark, or subtle provocation. If someone says something that hits a nerve, resist the reflex to defend or correct. Instead, imagine their words as a rubber ball thrown in your direction. You do not have to catch it. You do not have to throw it back. Let it hit the ground and bounce away. Let the silence stretch. Silence has presence. It creates space. And in that space, something powerful often happens. The other person may clarify. They may soften. They may even hear themselves more clearly. When you choose not to react, you stay sovereign over your energy. You observe instead of absorb. In a water ruled retrograde, that distinction is transformative.

4. Finally, this is the perfect moment for a Memory Reclaim Ritual. Choose a song, scent, or object from a specific year of your life and sit with it for ten quiet minutes. Allow whatever surfaces to surface. Do not curate the memory or judge it. Simply notice how your body responds. Then gently ask yourself: what did that version of me need that she did not receive? This is where the shift happens. Close your eyes and consciously introduce a new feeling into that memory. Safety. Pride. Protection. Understanding. Imagine your present self stepping into the scene and offering what was missing. Youare not rewriting history. You are updating the emotional imprint it left on you. You see, memory is not stored like a fixed photograph. It lives in the nervous system as sensation and pattern. During a Pisces Mercury retrograde, recall becomes fluid. The subconscious rises closer to the surface. When you revisit a memory from a regulated place and layer in compassion or strength, you begin to change how it lives inside you. You reclaim energy that was paused there. You release emotional residue that has quietly shaped you. That is the deeper magic of this transit.

I know it can feel like Mercury retrogrades are here to derail us. They slow down our TikToks, tangle our words, and blur people’s intentions. It can seem like everything glitches at once.

But what if we chose to see it differently?

Maybe retrogrades are not cosmic chaos at all. Maybe they are collective breathers. Seasons when the pace of the world softens just enough for us to hear our own thoughts again. To finish what we left half done. To reclaim old parts of ourselves. To let silence do the work our defensiveness once tried to handle.

There is real magic available here. Not in pushing harder, but in pausing. In the middle of the loading wheel spinning, in the unexpected delay, in the moment before you respond. If we allow the slowdown instead of fighting it, we may realize it was never here to block us. It was here to help us breathe.

How are you feeling this Mercury Retrograde? Where is Pisces in your natal chart? Tell me about it in the comment section!

I’m just going to be straight up with you.

When I look at someone’s birth chart and see a heavy Scorpio and Virgo combination, I get a little nervous. There is something about this blend that feels… feral in its intelligence. They feel precise, controlled, and undeniably savage when it comes to perception.

Virgo is the side that likes to figure people out. It thinks, studies, dissects. It can talk you into an idea and then gently dismantle it with one sentence you didn’t see coming. Virgo builds solutions out of thin air, reverse-engineers problems, and notices details most people miss entirely. Nothing slips past them. Every word, every pause, every behavioral pattern gets cataloged and quietly analyzed.

Then Scorpio takes it deeper.

Scorpio looks beyond what is immediately visible and explores the deeper layers underneath. It studies the psychological motive behind every crumb Virgo collects and links it back to emotional truth. It is patient in a way that can feel almost predatory. It will wait people out, observe patterns over time, and gather energetic data without saying a word. When it finally reveals what it knows, it always lands at the exact right moment.

Well. Right for them.

Put these two together and you get someone with precise perception fused with emotional x-ray vision. One side of them studies patterns, and the other side of them studies motives. And when those lenses lock onto the same person, it can feel like there is absolutely nowhere to hide.

Let’s name a few celebrities to get a grasp of this energy. We have Diddy. Kris Jenner. Beyonce, Gordon Ramsey.

Then also, the person whose chart I am reading here, attorney General Pam Bondi.

She has a Scorpio Sun, and Virgo Moon. You can see this blend reflected in the way she has moved through her public career. Her professional path has lived inside systems that require exactness, structure, and procedural fluency. Legal environments reward the Virgo skill set. Detail tracking. Case construction. Organized argumentation. The ability to hold large volumes of information and synthesize them into something coherent and actionable. Its all so Virgo.

At the same time, her delivery has often carried the deeper probing quality associated with Scorpio. Her rhetoric tends to move past surface facts and into questions of intention, influence, and underlying dynamics. It is less about presenting data in isolation, and more about contextualizing what that data might mean within a broader psychological or power framework.

Sun in Scorpio

With Pam’s Sun is Scorpio, her core self is already oriented toward psychological truth, emotional depth, and transformation. She also prefers to keep a lot about herself hidden, and have control of what comes out, and what stays inside.

Now add Neptune to this mix.

Neptune is the planet that distorts reality. It amplifies things going on in other dimensions, so the way it is translated in our world, it can be wonky. Pam has her identity very tightly linked to Neptunian traits. This makes her identity porous and perceptive, along with all the digging and investigating. She finds, absorbs, and even becomes ideas that just don’t always make sense in todays world. They can cling to dreams long after evidence suggests otherwise. Letting go of fantasy may feel like losing identity itself.

Having your Sun conjunct Neptune often blurs the line between personal identity and public narrative. With Bondi, her professional identity became deeply fused with political alliances, particularly her visible loyalty to Donald Trump. She may see it as devotion and conviction, but the internet sees it differently. That dual perception is very Neptunian. The same behavior reads as principled to some and performative to others.

Neptune adds devotional energy to the Sun. Her strong political alliances, particularly within Trump’s orbit, were viewed through two very different lenses. Some including herself sees loyalty and faithfulness, while the internet is seeing her ideological entanglement. This conjunction gives a martyr complex. People with it tend to over-sacrifice, believing suffering equals virtue. Helping others can become a way to avoid addressing their own needs.

As you know I stay away from political media, but what I do see from when I watch is that Pam has fused her energy into Trump’s martyr style. My worry for it, and we can call this a prediction, is that when shit goes down, the fingers will all be pointed at her. She will likely see punishments before her boss.

Virgo Moon

Pam’s Moon sits in Virgo. In astrology, the Moon describes the inner world. It reflects how someone processes feelings, what creates a sense of safety, how they respond instinctively, and what lives beneath the public persona. The Moon is memory, emotional patterning, and private processing. It is who someone is when they are not performing for the world.

Pam experiences emotion through discernment and analysis. Her feelings are observed, organized, and interpreted. There is a natural instinct for her to understand what is being felt and why. She expresses care through problem-solving, preparedness, and anticipating needs before they are spoken. She tends to feel most at ease when life feels organized and purposeful. There is a grounding quality to how she processes vulnerability.

But what makes Pam’s Virgo Moon a bit more diabolical is that it has Uranus and Pluto linked to it. Now we start to see a more complex emotional current moving underneath the composed exterior.

Uranus heightens awareness, but in its shadow expression, that awareness can feel constant. There is an emotional alertness that rarely fully powers down. With Pam, this can translate into always reading the room, tracking shifts in tone, loyalty, or tension even when nothing explicit is being said. The emotional body stays engaged, scanning for change.

This happens more internally, creating a nervous system that is quick to register disruption before it becomes visible to others. Emotional responses may come suddenly, but they are tied to patterns that have been quietly observed over time.

This placement can also create emotional distance as a form of regulation. Rather than sitting fully inside a feeling, there can be a tendency to step back, intellectualize it, or detach just enough to maintain control. The instinct is to not lose composure, and to remain responsive and self-directed.

Then we bring Pluto into the picture.

Pluto conjunct the Moon intensifies emotional processing. With Pam, this suggests that emotional exposure is measured. Trust is selective. Feelings become something to manage, contain, and understand before revealing. There can be a heightened awareness of emotional leverage, knowing how dynamics shift when certain truths are spoken versus withheld.

When Pam steps into public defense of Donald Trump, it reads like personal merger. When she bonds, she bonds with depth, privacy, and psychological investment. Loyalty is studied, chosen, and then held with intensity. So as we can see, she has certainly bonded. I feel like she has over-thought everything, and her Sun and Neptune has blurred her into her boss’s energy, where she will stop at nothing to defend the administration.

18 degrees

Pam has her Uranus and Pluto both at 18 degrees in Virgo. It is opposing her Chiron in Pisces, also at 18 degrees. When I see placements in someone’s natal chart at 18 degrees, my attention is captured. My interest is piqued. I am also giving them a bit of a side eye.

Modern astrologers frame 18° as the degree of moral complexity. People with placements here often face situations where right and wrong blur, survival pressures emerge, ethical gray zones appear, and power dynamics intensify. They are constantly tested in how they handle instinct, influence, and consequence. It is a degree that asks the question, what do you do when purity is no longer an option?

Pam has her Chiron in Pisces at 18 degrees. Chiron in someone’s astrology chart represents their greatest wound. Pam’s Chiron placement is telling me that her greatest wound in life is that she blends her energies into other peoples, and the power dynamics there take over her own. She feels psychically or emotionally bound to someone whose motives are not pure. They will wound her, as she helps them.

Her Chiron is giving an exact opposition to her Uranus at 18 degrees, and to her Pluto at 18 degrees. These entanglements that she gets involved in, and uses her brilliant investigative research skills to work for, are only going to change in shocking ways.

I don’t know if its too late for her to walk away, and to save herself. Because energetically, if she stays where she is, she will be one of the first to go down on this sinking ship.

So, um, thoughts and prayers I guess?

If I was her astrologer, I would tell her to embrace Gemini energy. Put new topics in her brain, new perspectives. Go out to lots of fun lunches with people who are way different then you. If she can activate a Gemini side of her own, it will actually help her across her life path. She might see things clearer. But thats after she rejects her Gemini boss.

Jaclyn Hill is back in the spotlight on TikTok after posting another video that viewers called out of touch. This is familiar territory for her. Controversy tends to orbit her the way a highlighter once did.

Jaclyn Hill is a well-known makeup influencer. In fact, she was one of the original influencers. The one that millennials ran to YouTube to watch starting in 2011. Her videos were pretty cool. She was known for her detailed, step-by-step guides that showed how to create specific looks, such as dramatic smoky eyes or full glam routines. Her tutorials were a core reason people subscribed and watched. She posted videos on how to do your makeup like the Kardashians. She also helped pioneer the still very popular “get ready with me videos, where she does her hair and makeup, and does story times.

She was just a regular girl with a phone and a gift for doing makeup.

After some time, she really blew up into fame, and I mean FAME. She collaborated with Becca Cosmetics, and, oh my goodness, that Champagne Pop Highlighter was iconic.

Then she collaborated with Morphe and launched the Jaclyn Hill Eye Palette, which broke the internet. Those blockbuster palettes were everything then. Hers had the mattes, the shimmers, the neutrals, and the crazy pops.

Speaking about breaking the internet, in 2017, Kim Kardashian appeared in one of her videos. This was when Kim K was at her peak, when she influenced the world to start heavily contouring the skin, with all the products from KKW Beauty.

Honestly, I cringe sometimes thinking about my major contouring days, when I would put those dark stripes over my face, and blend them, thinking I was making myself look like Gigi Hadid.

Spoiler alert…… I wasn’t, and I was a shitty blender…..But I digress.

My point is that Jacklyn started as a regular person and blew up as one of the first influencers. Like most influencers, she had her share of controversy. Some of it was stupid, like she got divorced and moved on. But some of it was really bad, the worst being a lipstick line that she launched in 2019.

These pieces were anticipated highly, but when people received their orders, the lipstick had hair-like fibers in it, and pieces of metal. As a former cosmetic chemist…..YIKES.

But she moved on, with more launches, more quality issues in products, but nothing as bad as lipstick gate.

I follow her on TikTok, but I really haven’t seen the magic that I used to. Instead of makeup videos and tutorials, most of her videos have been her flaunting her wealth. She films in spacious parts of her house with high-end finishes, new decor, and custom furniture. Several viewers have said the focus on her home environment makes the content feel more like wealth showcasing than beauty or personal storytelling. She does things like “look at my Stanley Cup collection”, opens a cabinet to show off about 30 Stanley Cups in shades that aren’t really that different. Or videos like “OMG you guys, I bought two Chloe bags, but I don’t know which one I should keep”.

Actually, the only time I really saw her play with makeup in a recent video was when she wheeled some tiered carts to the camera with 1000s of products, saying “this is my collection, but I would like to downsize”. Her viewers sarcastically thanked her for offering her leftovers to District 12.

So basically, while her old content focused on teaching and artistry, her newer content leans toward lifestyle, comfort brands, home purchases, and personal indulgence. Viewers felt this shift highlighted the wealth gap between her and her audience more clearly than before.

Anyway, last week on December 3, she posted a TikTok where she talked about her low engagement on her videos and her struggles to connect with followers despite showing off aspects of her lifestyle. Many people online viewed this as out of touch, given broader economic concerns and the perception that she was focused on personal wealth instead of addressing her audience’s feedback. People criticized her for complaining about views while centering on expensive lifestyle items, leading to a wave of negative responses and commentary from other creators and fans.

She responded, “But guys, I do GIVEAWAYS”.

Cue the controversy. She has broken the internet in TikTok land, where many people are making videos of her. Social media users described her post as tone-deaf, saying it made her seem disconnected from her audience’s real interests and priorities. Some creators on TikTok and Reddit have weighed in, amplifying the criticism and discussing the dynamics of influencer accountability.

What did I do? I ran an astrology chart on the timestamp of her video, of course.

An Astrology Reading of the Moment She Posted the Video

The moment you post a video on the internet, the snapshot of the sky influences how that video is received. She posted the video on December 3, 2025, at 2:53 pm in LA. Here is a snapshot of the sky at that point, and my analysis.

This chart is screaming emotional overflow. It is reactive truth-telling mixed with a little bit of “oops, I just exposed myself.” This is the kind of sky that makes someone hit post because it feels honest and grounding in the moment, but the collective immediately reads it as tone deaf or off-key. And because the entire kite shape channels through Taurus in the first house, everyone focuses on how she looks, how she sounds, the vibe she gives off, not the message she thought she was sharing.

So let’s look at that rising sign. Taurus rising with the Moon fused to Uranus in the first house is pure spontaneity. It is the post you do without rehearsing. It is the emotional eruption you do not think through because the pressure inside you finally bubbles over. Moon and Uranus together do not stay quiet. In Taurus, the feelings come out through money themes, comfort, lifestyle, and the whole presentation of personal stability. Because it is in the first house, the public gets the raw version. No softening. No smoothing. No PR polish.

People go viral under skies like this because the audience sees something that was not meant to be revealed. The reaction splits right down the middle. Supporters say she is being real. Critics say she is totally disconnected. The tension gets even sharper once you notice the Moon Uranus conjunction is directly opposite Mercury and Lilith. That opposition is the spark that tells you this could ignite instantly.

Now move to the Sun and Mars in Sagittarius in the eighth house. This is where the controversy actually unlocks. Sagittarius speaks boldly. It loves honesty. It loves to say the thing that feels true. But the eighth house takes that bold honesty and sends it straight into the shadows. A confession becomes exposure. A vulnerable moment becomes a pressure point. There is also a hint of self-righteousness here. Not because she intended it. The tone just reads that way to viewers, even if she meant well.

The emotional backbone of the moment is the grand water trine. It is not gentle. It pulls up everything sitting beneath the surface and floods the internal landscape.

Start with Jupiter retrograde in Cancer on the IC. This is the deepest point of the chart. It is the root system. There is insecurity around home, stability, belonging, and the old need to be understood. This transit pokes at the fear that people do not really get you. It rises right as you open your mouth to share something with the world.

Then Saturn and Neptune retrograde in Pisces in the eleventh house, bringing another layer. This is where identity feels fragile inside the crowd. Saturn adds the feeling of being judged. Neptune blurs intention and makes the message hard to read. Put together, they create the perfect environment for a public reaction that gets bigger than the original point.

Mercury and Lilith in Scorpio in the seventh house deliver the sting. This is honesty with spice. Honesty with teeth. It is vulnerable, but it does not land as a soft vulnerability. It lands as something sharp. Something intense. Something that people project their own shadow onto. When this part of the trine activates, the person posting is not speaking from their conscious mind. They are speaking from deeper emotional currents that slip through before they are edited.

This is why people react so strongly to posts made under this energy. It is not just content. It is emotional saturation leaking into the public space.

Now let’s go to the kite pattern.

For reference, I highlighted the kite pattern in pink.

This is where the chart goes electric. A kite takes a water trine and turns it into an event. All of the energy shoots toward the Moon Uranus conjunction in the first house. That is why the moment felt so explosive and fast.

The opposition to Mercury and Lilith has three major effects. First, it makes the message sharper than intended. She thought she was expressing her truth. Instead, it came out reactive or tone deaf. Second, it triggers projection. Lilith in the seventh house almost guarantees that the public will throw their shadow onto her. They respond with judgment, frustration, and moral outrage. Third, this pattern spreads fast. Uranus brings shock. Lilith brings taboo. Mercury spreads the message. The Moon amplifies the emotional charge. It is the perfect recipe for instant viral friction.

Was the video destined to be controversial? Yes. Fully. Moon Uranus chaos, Mercury Lilith pressure, and the Sun Mars intensity in the eighth house create a sequence that almost always becomes a chain reaction. A sudden emotional post. Public discomfort. Defenders jumping in. Critics jumping in. Engagement spiked whether she wanted it or not. The first house emphasis guarantees visibility through the mess.

Did the chart suggest traffic and attention? Absolutely. Uranus in the first house pulls the eyes to the page. The Moon in the first pulls emotion. Sun and Mars in the eighth pull fascination with shadow. Saturn and Neptune in the eleventh tie everything to the crowd. Mercury and Lilith, opposite the Moon, make sure the video gets stitched, critiqued, and duetted. Jupiter retrograde on the IC gives the whole moment emotional momentum.

It is the kind of chart that makes someone say they never expected the post to blow up, while the audience asks why it was posted in the first place.

But here is the thing about a kite pattern. A grand water trine with an opposition goes beyond stirring emotion. It manifests. It delivers.

These transits were arranged to give Jaclyn exactly what she kept asking for. Engagement. Traffic. Eyes on her page. A resurgence of relevance.

She wanted attention. She got it.

A grand water trine will always give you what you reach for, but rarely in the form you imagined. It is the cosmic equivalent of placing an order with the universe and forgetting to read the fine print.

It calls back to that old truth. Be careful what you wish for. You might just get it.

One week later, Jaclyn is still getting it.

If you read this and enjoyed it, let me know what moment you would like for me to analyze next.

Millie Bobby Brown completely captured my attention the moment Stranger Things landed in 2016. She entered the screen like a quiet storm in a child’s body, almost feral, barefoot and trembling in a hospital gown with a shaved head.

I was instantly hooked

Then I blinked.

Suddenly, she had grown. Married. A mother. Time moved impossibly fast, but her impact stayed exactly where it started.

When I pulled up her birth chart, everything fell into place.

She is a Virgo Rising with Jupiter Rx on her Ascendant

Millie has Virgo rising with Jupiter sitting right on her Ascendant, and it explains immediately why her presence feels impossible to ignore.

Jupiter expands whatever it touches. Wherever it lands in a chart, it magnifies. On the rising sign, it becomes visible. It gives someone a sense of importance without them ever trying to claim it. Their presence grows the longer you look at them. Their energy fills more space than they physically occupy.

Millie commands attention the same way gravity commands orbit.

Her Virgo rising gives her that observant, precise quality. When she walks into a room, she isn’t flashy or loud, but she is definitely tuned in. She notices the details other people miss. There’s quiet control in her face and body language, a kind of inward authority. This placement also adds structure to her features. Whether she’s bare-faced or in full glam, her face doesn’t change much. Her looks don’t need enhancements; her face is already refined and structured. (meanwhile, I put makeup on and look like a different person, no refinement here lol)

There’s something naturally commanding about her, even when she is quiet. People notice her not because she tries to stand out, but because she carries intention. There is weight behind her energy. She feels grounded, intelligent, and emotionally adult. She reads as powerful even when she barely speaks.

With Jupiter retrograde, her confidence doesn’t come from people praising her or from outside validation. It grows inward, slowly and privately. She never felt like a child performer chasing applause. Instead, she carried restraint and emotional gravity from the beginning. Her work feels intimate instead of theatrical. You always get the sense that she’s processing something deeper than what she reveals.

She has a Pisces Sun

Being born on February 19 makes Millie a Pisces Sun, and it shows up everywhere in the way she moves through the world.

Pisces doesn’t see people as categories. It sees through them. Age, status, labels, identity. None of that matters in the way Pisces understands humanity. They recognize emotion as the real language. They see people as cut from the same cloth and shaped by different storms.

A Pisces Sun experiences life through feeling first and logic second.

Millie goes beyond observing people. She senses them. She absorbs moods, emotional shifts, and unspoken truths without anyone needing to say a word. She naturally sees how others are feeling long before they articulate it themselves.

Even in interviews, Millie never frames fame as fantasy. She describes it as pressure, responsibility, and something heavy to carry at such a young age. She redirects the conversation away from glamour and toward the invisible cost of being watched while still becoming yourself.

There is also a strong instinct toward service here. Pisces placements genuinely want to help people. There is something in her that instinctively asks, “How can I make this better?” rather than “How do I shine?”

Her Sun sits at zero degrees of Pisces, which gives this energy its purest form. When a planet sits at zero degrees, it expresses its sign without dilution. In Pisces, that looks like sensitivity without armor. Intuition without filter. Empathy with no off-switch.

It creates someone who often feels like they live between worlds. There’s a dreamlike quality to her nature, as though she’s constantly standing in two realities at once. It’s why she can play characters like Eleven with emotional truth. She doesn’t imitate emotion. She absorbs it and lets it move through her.

Her Pisces Sun is conjunct Uranus

Then there’s Uranus sitting right beside her Sun.

This is where the electricity comes from.

Pisces is the softest sign in the zodiac. Uranus is the wildest planet. When they merge, the result is nothing gentle or predictable. It’s a dreamer that meets lightning, or an angel that meets an alien.

There is something wired differently in her. She feels deeply but processes sideways. Her emotional world doesn’t move in straight lines. Inspiration hits out of nowhere. Energy shifts suddenly. She changes in flashes.

She is someone who doesn’t experience life normally. Her inner world is tuned to a different frequency. She brings a sense of strangeness, originality, and emotional electricity into everything she touches.

Because this energy runs through her daily life and work, it explains the quiet solitude that often surrounds her. Not isolation. Individuality. She does not function well inside imitation or routine. She needs room to move emotionally, creatively, and psychologically.

She works from instinct and feelings, combined with that sudden internal knowing.

She has an Aquarius Moon

Millie’s Moon in Aquarius is another reason she feels different in a way people can’t quite explain.

Your Moon is your emotional body. It’s how you feel when nobody is watching. It’s your instincts, your comfort zone, your private world.

With an Aquarius Moon, emotion doesn’t behave in predictable ways. Feelings move through thought first. There’s space between reaction and response. She feels deeply but also watches herself feel at the same time.

You can see this in how Millie handles public pressure. When tabloids and social media began dissecting her appearance and maturity, she didn’t collapse into apology or rage. She spoke clearly. Calmly. She named the behavior as harmful and stepped back from the noise instead of feeding it. That emotional distance wasn’t coldness. It was self-preservation.

This Moon also cares more about humanity than personal drama. It feels for the collective. For causes. For the bigger picture. When she became the youngest UNICEF Goodwill Ambassador, she didn’t treat it as a badge or a photo opportunity. She used it to talk about bullying, mental health, and the realities facing children across the world. An Aquarius Moon feels safest when it’s helping from a wide angle rather than getting tangled in small emotional storms.

To others, this can look like detachment. Like, she disappears emotionally. But in truth, she just processes differently. She needs space to stay open. She loves her freedom! She connects through thought, curiosity, and shared values as much as emotion itself.

She is warm-hearted, just not emotionally crowded.

Her Moon is at 22 Degrees (AHHHH)

Her Moon also sits at 22 degrees, which adds an invisible seriousness to her emotional world.

This degree is often talked about in dramatic internet language (“kill or be killed”), but what it actually represents is an internal sense of urgency. A feeling that life cannot be taken lightly. A deep instinct that says, I have to live consciously, or I disappear inside my own life.

There’s an emotional wake-up call at this degree. A subtle pressure to take ownership of one’s path rather than float along passively.

But what’s beautiful about Millie is how she carries it.

Instead of hardening, she softens.

There is a preserved innocence in her. It’s like she has a quiet refusal to become cold. Even as her world grows heavier, there’s still a part of her that longs for fairness, gentleness, and emotional safety. She protects vulnerability, her own and the people around her.

Rather than toughening her, this degree has made her soft with a purpose.

She has a Gemini Midheaven with Lilith

Millie’s career axis is in Gemini with Lilith sitting right on top of it, and this is where her public story takes on weight.

Your Midheaven shows how the world sees you. It’s your reputation, your image, the role your life grows into.

With Gemini here, her voice is central to her destiny. Her destiny is bigger the just an actress. She’s a messenger. A mirror. Someone whose image evolves constantly and refuses to be contained in one identity.

Because she grew up in front of the world, many people feel entitled to evaluate her evolution. Some nostalgia-driven fans expect her to stay frozen in a specific image from her earlier “child star” era; when she changes, backlash often follows.

She directly called this out: “I started in this industry when I was 10 … I grew up in front of the world, and for some reason people can’t seem to grow with me.”

Now Lilith enters the chat. This “nasty woman” archetype is connected to her reputation. This makes her controversial without trying. It makes her magnetic without a safety net.

This even happened recently. This year, Millie publicly slammed journalists and tabloids who criticized her appearance and accused her of “aging badly.” She posted a video on her Instagram calling out several named articles and writers, labeling the coverage as “bullying” instead of journalism.

In total Lilith in Gemini fashion, her response wasn’t quiet or polite. She demanded accountability, defended her right to evolve and grow up, and declared that she won’t apologize for getting older or changing.

Lilith sitting here means she doesn’t move through fame neutrally. People project onto her, they judge her, idealize her, and whisper about her. People tend to build narratives that don’t belong to her at all.

She becomes talked about in rooms she’s never entered.

She is admired and misunderstood, loved and critiqued, watched closely, and of course, interpreted endlessly. It’s not even because she’s doing anything wrong. But because she reminds people of something uncomfortable in themselves.

Lilith doesn’t allow a woman to wear innocence forever. She pushes evolution, strips illusion, and forces visibility.

Millie carries a generation forward through expression, letting shadow and voice exist in the same breath.

Let me know if you have any questions about her chart posted above!! I just hit the tip of the iceberg!

Who would you like me to read next?

I just finished watching the documentary on Netflix called Unknown Caller. The story follows Lauryn, a 14-year-old girl who was dating her high school sweetheart, Owen. Starting around Halloween, Lauryn began receiving disturbing text messages from an unknown number. These texts attacked her character, threatened her relationship, picked on her body, sexualized her, and urged her to take her own life. As the weeks went on, the messages grew darker and more relentless.

The shocking twist came when the truth was revealed.

Spoiler:

.

.

.

.

The person sending the texts was Lauryn’s own mother.

Kendra Gail Licari, now 45, was arrested for cyberstalking and catfishing her daughter. She was paroled on 08/08/2024. After watching the documentary and learning that her birthday was public on her arrest record, I had to look at her chart. Let me tell you how much I was TRIGGERED.

Why? Because she has some heavy Libra placements, like myself. My Moon, Pluto, Black Moon Lilith, and Ascendant, the very foundation of my identity, are all in Libra. I constantly hear how people are suspicious of Libra-heavy charts, accusing us of playing both sides, shifting personas, or slipping into manipulation. Kendra is embodying the shadow side of it all to the max.

There is truth in that shadow. Libras can wear a mask. Libras can mirror so well that it becomes difficult to tell where the real self ends and the performance begins. In my own life, I have brushed against these darker edges. At my lowest points, I have felt the pull of control, the temptation to deceive, and the urge to disappear into someone else’s reflection. But I also know the work it takes to face those shadows and transform them into something whole. Shadow work can turn the same energy into powerful gifts. Instead of playing both sides, we can become skilled mediators. Instead of losing ourselves, we can mirror with empathy while staying rooted in truth. The urge to control can evolve into the ability to create balance in ways that heal rather than harm.

Kendra’s chart, however, carries a potentially volatile signature, Pluto, Mars, and Lilith conjunct in Libra, likely joined by her Moon. On the surface, Libra wants harmony and fairness. But with this trio, balance becomes a battleground. Mars is already uncomfortable in Libra; it’s unable to express anger directly, so it can disguise rage through manipulation, guilt, or strategy. Add Pluto’s hunger for power and Lilith’s raw edge, and relationships turn into arenas where control masquerades as care.

Her actions toward her daughter mirror this shadow perfectly. Libra’s gift for charm became weaponized. At home, she played the soothing, supportive mother, while secretly she was the one inflicting the harm. This is Libra’s shadow at its darkest. It is a charm used not to heal but to dominate, to control the narrative, to make others doubt their own perceptions. When people get really triggered by heavy Libra placement people (think Tom Schwartz from VPR), that is what they see.

Mars in Libra also points to passive-aggressive warfare. Rather than open confrontation, the attacks seep out through sabotage and hidden moves. Kendra destabilized her daughter with cruel texts, only to step into the role of protector afterward. This disorienting tactic left her daughter powerless, unable to reconcile the source of the pain with the face of the comforter.

Pluto and Lilith brought obsession with power in relationships. Equality dissolved, leaving only dominance and submission. Her daughter became both victim and dependent, trapped in a cycle that kept Kendra in control. Projection and scapegoating fueled the pattern. Kendra’s messages painted her daughter as the victim of a faceless threat when the predator was Kendra all along.

This facade was intensified by another part of her chart. Kendra’s Sun, Mercury, and North Node all sit in Leo. The North Node is like a cliff edge. It marks where the soul is trying to grow, but the ground always feels unstable. When personal planets sit next to it, their energy is pulled into that stretch, often in exaggerated or distorted ways, until maturity brings perspective. With the Sun there, her very identity was caught on that edge. With Mercury there, so was her voice and her ability to shape a narrative. At its best, this could have been a call to step into authentic Leo qualities, such as creativity, courage, and shining with warmth. But in the shadows, it becomes compulsive. It’s a hunger for validation and attention at any cost. When mixed with Libra’s obsession with appearances, the Leo need for recognition magnifies the manipulation. It suggests that her control over her daughter was not just about domination, but about ensuring the drama, the entire story, revolved around her.

Beneath it all was a toxic fear of abandonment. Pluto and Lilith in Libra can manifest as suffocating control born of terror at rejection. By creating chaos and then fixing it, Kendra ensured her daughter stayed dependent. This reflects Libra’s compulsion to break harmony, only to restore it, proving power through both destruction and repair.

Her behavior also shows rage disguised as justice. Mars in Libra seeks fairness, but with Pluto and Lilith, cruelty can be reframed as righteousness. Tormenting her daughter and then stepping in as savior could even have been rationalized in her mind as “teaching her a lesson.”

This is relationship addiction at its most disturbing. The Pluto–Mars–Lilith cluster craves intensity so strongly that peace feels unbearable. Calm must be disrupted to feed the hunger for drama. Her daughter became the unwilling anchor of this cycle, caught in a web of a mother who needed conflict to feel alive.

I do not have Kendra’s birth time, but her Moon is either in late Libra or early Scorpio. Either way, the theme of obsession intensifies. A Libra Moon would entangle her emotions with the toxic Pluto–Mars–Lilith cluster, pulling her compulsions into every relationship. A Scorpio Moon would bury the obsession deeper, driving it underground into secrecy and control from the shadows. Both placements describe a Moon that cannot release, that clings, manipulates, and fixates, fueling the stalking and double role she played with her daughter.

These placements also explain why Kendra doesn’t think she did anything wrong. They easily twist a person’s sense of right and wrong. Pluto, Mars, and Lilith in Libra can disguise manipulation as care, and control as fairness. To someone living this out unconsciously, their actions don’t always feel cruel; they feel justified. Mars in Libra believes it is fighting for fairness, even when its tactics are manipulative. Pluto can rationalize domination as necessary or even transformative. Lilith resists shame, which at its highest is empowering, but in shadow, she refuses to admit fault.

If Kendra’s Moon sits with this cluster in Libra, the effect goes even deeper. The Moon shapes how we feel and nurture, and with this lineup, it can confuse control with love. Hurting her daughter and then swooping in to comfort her may have felt, in her mind, like care. This is how she could convince herself she wasn’t really doing anything wrong, because within her shadow, causing harm and then fixing it blurred together as the same act of “love.”Taken together, these traits reveal the shadow side of a Libra stellium. Harmony becomes a façade. Peace becomes manipulation. Intimacy becomes a battlefield. In Kendra’s case, the veneer of care concealed machinery of cruelty, where control replaced love and illusion replaced truth. What could have been a gift, the ability to navigate conflict and restore fairness with wisdom, fell into its darkest shadow, turning motherhood into a theater of domination and disguise.

Now it is important to say this: nobody with Pluto, Moon, Mars, and Lilith in Libra is doomed to cruelty. Every placement has both shadow and gift. The same forces that destroy can also heal when met with self-awareness and honesty.

At its highest expression, this conjunction is a signature of relational alchemists. Mars supplies courage and drive, Pluto brings the power to transform what is broken, and Lilith insists on raw, unfiltered honesty. Together, they can create people who are unafraid to step into the difficult spaces of human connection. Like the unspoken tensions, the hidden resentments, the dynamics most others would rather avoid. Instead of manipulating those currents, they can name them and work with them, guiding others through the underworld of relationships and bringing light where there was once shadow. They have the potential to be mediators who turn conflict into dialogue, healers who expose unhealthy patterns with compassion, and protectors who embody justice not as punishment, but as balance restored.

If the Moon is part of this conjunction in Libra, the potential grows even more profound. A Libra Moon at its highest expression knows how to hold the emotional needs of others without losing its own center. It has an intuitive sense for fairness and harmony, and when joined with Pluto, Mars, and Lilith, it can turn intense feelings into a force for healing rather than destruction. Such a Moon can mirror others with deep empathy, making people feel truly seen, while also modeling what it looks like to stay rooted in authenticity. Instead of clinging or controlling, the Libra Moon in its higher form creates safe emotional space, one where love is not conditional and where the balance it seeks is real, not a façade. This is the gift of these placements, the ability to walk into the storm of human relationships and emerge with truth, clarity, and connection still intact. I can tell you this, because I have lived this myself.

The same placements that drove Kendra into shadow are the very ones that could make someone else a beacon of clarity and transformation. That is the choice of Libra. The mask can be a lie, or it can be a mirror that leads to truth. Kendra’s chart doesn’t excuse what she did, but it does reveal how easily shadow can twist light into something unrecognizable. Libra’s gift is to bring balance, fairness, and connection, yet in her case, it became the perfect mask for cruelty. The same placements that turned love into domination could just as easily, in another life, make someone a healer, a mediator, or a truth-teller. That is the razor’s edge of astrology. The chart shows the potential, but it is the choice that decides whether it becomes poison or medicine.

The Face the World Could Not Define

Some people carry an energy that escapes definition. The harder the world tries to label them, the more they slip through the cracks, becoming something bigger and harder to contain. Amanda Knox is one of those people.

Her story went beyond true crime, or whether she was innocent. It became a global obsession because she embodied contradictions that no headline could pin down. Quick yet elusive, wounded yet unbroken, sensitive yet unflinching, her chart reflects why she drew such fascination and confusion.

Through astrology, we can see why Knox became a mirror for the world’s projections. The patterns in her chart read like archetypal stories, showing us why she unsettled some, inspired others, and remained unforgettable. Amanda was never going to fade quietly into the background. She was always going to be an enigma the world felt compelled to unravel. In this reading, I will go through the basics of her natal chart, to put some clarity into her mysterious energy.

Amandas Chart

Gemini Rising: The Aura That Refuses Containment

Amanda Knox is a Gemini Rising, which gives her an appearance that feels bright, curious, and full of mental energy. But because her Rising sits at 8°, the lightness of Gemini mixes with something heavier. On the surface, she looks playful and quick, yet underneath, there’s a sense of pressure, as if life is always testing her.

This is why she can seem both restless and sharply focused at the same time. Her eyes, often noted in photos and interviews, don’t just sparkle with curiosity like other Geminis. They cut. They give the impression of someone holding themselves steady against chaos, like she’s constantly checking herself, training herself, bracing herself.

When life throws challenges her way, this Rising degree shows up in how she reacts. Instead of collapsing under the weight, she turns inward and tightens her grip. People watching may mistake it for coldness, detachment, or even defiance. But what they are really seeing is someone wrestling to master her own response in the middle of a storm.

Her Rising sign explains why she is so hard to define. Gemini gives her adaptability and quickness, but that 8° edge adds gravity. She moves through challenges while wearing them on her face and in her body. Her presence feels like resilience unfolding in real time, which is exactly why the world cannot look away.

Chiron in the first house

Amanda Knox was born with a presence that feels expansive, restless, and untamed, like something always growing in too many directions at once. Her face, her voice, and her movements don’t stay in one role, and that unsettles people. To some, she is captivating. To others, she is threatening because she refuses to fit into a single box.

From early on, she was told she was “too much.” Too many gestures. Too much energy. Too many words that landed the wrong way. Instead of being accepted as she was, she was reshaped into roles that felt safer for others: the ingénue, the seductress, the manipulator. Each label trimmed her back, cutting away parts of her until only someone else’s version of her remained.

Her deep wound is about the pain of never being allowed to grow wild. But inside that wound lies her gift. With time, she can reclaim her own story. What once made her misunderstood can become the very thing that makes her unmistakable. The unruly growth others tried to cut down becomes a symbol of resilience. She might not diminish the wound, but she will learn to master it. That mastery is her paradox. The pain of being endlessly projected upon becomes the ground for a selfhood that cannot be cut down again.

Her Chiron, the asteroid of wounding and healing, gives her the ability to help others who have been silenced, mislabeled, or told they were “too much.” Because she has lived through the violence of projection, she knows how deeply it can wound the self. In her presence, those who have been misunderstood could finally feel seen.

Her gift is to remind us that our sprawling, untamed parts don’t need to be destroyed, only tended. By sharing her story, even its most painful parts, she shows that wounds around identity can transform into resilience, clarity, and leadership. At its highest expression, her wound becomes her power: proof that being mischaracterized does not erase the truth of who you are, and that identity reclaimed is sharper, stronger, and unshakable.

The Cancer Sun That Refuses to Stay Small

At the core of Amanda Knox’s chart is her Cancer Sun, an image of relentless growth. It’s not the soft kind of growth that quietly unfolds. It is the force of a seed cracking open, breaking through its shell, and demanding light. Her life force pushes her to expand beyond limits, even when the world tries to contain her.

Cancer longs for safety, belonging, and the comfort of family, but her Sun also drives her toward individuality and visibility. She is pulled both to dissolve into shelter and to proclaim her uniqueness. That tension runs through her story.

A Cancer Sun often feels life in tidal waves. Emotions rise, fall, and leave their imprint. This sign processes through care, through empathy, and often through protective defenses when that sensitivity becomes too raw. For Amanda, this means her identity pulses with feeling.

Blended with her Gemini Rising, this sensitivity becomes even more visible. Gemini animates the face with quick shifts of expression, and when Cancer’s depth moves through that channel, her emotions flicker across her features. This makes her both magnetic and unsettling to people. She can appear open one moment, guarded the next, reflecting the inner dialogue of a Sun that longs for shelter but is always pulled into the light. It’s also what made her story feel inevitable. She could not stay invisible. Her Cancer Sun meant she would be cracked open under pressure, forced into visibility even when it was excruciating. The world projected every possible version of her identity onto her, and she could not retreat into a shell.

Her Sun sits with the asteroid Atropos, the fate goddess who cuts the thread of life. Atropos brings themes of endings and irreversible turning points. For Amanda, this goddess fuses directly with her core identity. It’s like Atropos’s consciousness is implanted into Amanda. Her very sense of self has always been linked to moments of rupture. The “before and after” events that split a life in two.

This is why her story carries a haunting sense of destiny. Her Sun represents life, shining, and identity. Atropos whispers that her light would always be shaped by endings. Her public identity became forever tied to the ending of another’s life, a tragedy she did not cause but could never escape.

Atropos also symbolizes the cutting away of old stories so that new ones can be woven. For Amanda, this means her growth depends on shedding the roles forced on her, like the femme fatale, the angelic victim, and the manipulator. These masks must fall away for her true self to emerge.

This Sun-Atropos combination makes her identity powerful, fated, and unforgettable. Her chart shows us that her story has never just been about innocence or guilt. It is about what it means to grow inside the shadow of fate, to keep breaking open, and to become larger than the labels the world tries to impose.

The Voice That Could Not Be Neutral

Amanda’s Mercury in Cancer already makes her voice deeply emotional, tied to memory, sensitivity, and instinct. She was born under a Mercury retrograde. This can make her words often spiral inward before they come out. She may replay them, revise them, and feel that what she says is never quite heard the way she meant it. This retrograde motion gives her communication a looping, reflective quality, powerful but vulnerable to being misinterpreted.

Her Mercury placement in Cancer is conjunct with the asteroid Astarte. Astarte is the ancient goddess of passion, sexuality, and power, a force that blurs the line between intimacy and authority, allure and danger. When she sits in conjunction with Mercury, words, thoughts, and even silences become charged with a magnetic, sensual undercurrent. Communication is never just literal; it is infused with the suggestion of desire, power, and raw feminine energy.

For Amanda, this conjunction explains why the world read so much more into her words and gestures than what was literally there. A laugh, a phrase, a glance, instead of being neutral, they carried layers that people projected onto. Some saw vulnerability, others saw seduction, others saw manipulation. Her Mercury retrograde made her speech harder to pin down, and Astarte turned her communication into something people instinctively sexualized or feared. Together, they created a storm of projection around her identity, particularly in moments when she most needed clarity.

At its highest expression, this conjunction is extraordinary. Amanda has the potential to speak from a place that unites intellect and deep feminine power, weaving words that cut through illusions and reclaim the very narratives that once trapped her. Mercury retrograde with Astarte suggests that when she reclaims her voice, not the voice others twisted but her true inner one, she becomes a vessel of profound healing for herself and others. She can embody the truth that a woman’s voice can be sensual and strong, tender and commanding, vulnerable and unstoppable, all at once.

This is where the media archetype of “Foxy Knoxy” was born. It was never about who she truly was. It was about how her Mercury and Astarte made her impossible to see in a neutral light. The retrograde bent her words inward, making her harder to interpret, while Astarte infused everything she said with a sensual undertone that society both desires and fears in women. Together, they created a storm where she was cast as the femme fatale, the dangerous seductress, the manipulator hiding behind a girlish face. She became an archetype the world needed, rather than a person the world could understand.

This is also where her power lies. The same Mercury-Astarte energy that made her vulnerable to projection can also be the very force that reclaims her story. When she speaks on her own terms, she embodies the narrative. Her voice carries the potential to slice through the noise, to expose how easily society weaponizes female energy, and to show how sensuality, intelligence, and vulnerability can coexist without shame. What was once distorted into “Foxy Knoxy” can, in her own hands, become a symbol of reclamation, the power of a woman defining her own image after the world has tried to define it for her.

Sagittarius Moon & When Love Becomes a Crucible

Amanda’s 7th house, the realm of relationships, is ruled by Sagittarius. This gives her connections a restless, searching quality. Her partners go beyond being a companion. They become teachers, trials, and sometimes adversaries who push her to confront the biggest questions of who she is.

But this house also has her Saturn placement, the planet of limits and lessons. With Saturn here, partnerships rarely feel light. They arrive with weight, responsibility, and judgment. For Amanda, relationships in youth carried consequences far larger than the bonds themselves, shaping her story in ways she could never have predicted.

Her Moon sits here too, fused with Uranus, the planet of disruption. This combination electrifies her emotional life. Relationships are charged, unstable, pulled between closeness and upheaval. Her bonds swing between intimacy and rupture, tenderness and shock. Others easily spark something volatile in her.

The clearest example came with Raffaele Sollecito. When Amanda was arrested, she had been dating him for only a week. What should have been a fleeting romance became the crucible of a global case. Saturn stamped it with karmic weight, while Moon-Uranus made it combustible. Their connection, fragile in real time, became a flashpoint that bound her identity to his under an unbearable spotlight.

This is the Saturn in her 7th house. Relationships that arrive suddenly, sweep her into their storm, and demand she face consequences far beyond love itself. Yet within that wound lies her awakening. She cannot discover herself in isolation. She learns through the mirror of others, even when that mirror distorts, fractures, or shatters. Each bond, whether nurturing or destructive, forges her into someone stronger, clearer, and more resilient.

Saturn does not keep her in this relationship heaviness forever. With time, especially after her Saturn return around age 29–30, the weight turns into wisdom. What was once heavy becomes structure. Relationships shift from tests into foundations, from chaos into steady ground. For Amanda, this turning point holds the promise of bonds that are loyal, stabilizing, and sustaining. After walking through fire, she carries the potential to build partnerships that support her rather than undo her.

If I Were Amanda’s Astrologer

If Amanda sat across from me, I would tell her that her chart is about reclamation. What the world once used to misname her can become the very substance she uses to define her power.

She has lived the weight of being misunderstood, distorted, and reduced to archetypes she never chose. Yet that experience gives her rare authority. She knows the violence of projection, and she carries the strength to transform that pain into clarity, resilience, and leadership.

Her Mercury fused with Astarte adds another dimension to this. Mercury rules communication, and Astarte is the goddess of desire, allure, and sovereignty. Together, they give her words a magnetic quality. When Amanda speaks, it isn’t only what she says, but it is the way she says it. She can draw people in, holding their attention with a kind of seduction that isn’t just sexual, but psychological. Her voice becomes a spell, weaving narratives that people can’t turn away from.

This is why it’s no accident that she found success in podcasting. By launching a career as a storyteller, she reclaimed the medium that was once used against her. Instead of being spoken about, she speaks for herself. She built a platform where her words, her timing, her tone, all the things her Mercury/Astarte conjunction grants her, could be wielded on her own terms. What others once tried to weaponize becomes the very skill that anchors her authority.

Her presence will never be neutral, and that is her gift. When she claims it deliberately, she becomes a mirror that unsettles, heals, and forces truth into the open. The caricatures that were written about her, the femme fatale, the cold manipulator, the naïve girl, can be cut away, leaving only the story she writes for herself.

Every wound, every projection, every shadow becomes a tool in her hands. What the world tried to strip from her is the very thing she can transform into unforgettable power. She is proof that the qualities most feared or misunderstood in others often point directly to the truths we need to face within ourselves.

Amanda’s chart does not tell the story of a victim or a villain. It tells the story of reclamation. Of a woman who can take what was twisted and projected onto her and turn it into evidence that identity it’s defined by the voice that refuses to be silenced.

Would anyone like me to talk about the transits of the night the crime against Meredith took place? I am curious about Rudy Guede, the convicted killers transits that night, along with Amanda’s.

If you are reading this, I would love to know about your Chiron. What sign do you have Chiron in? How does it manifest for you?

Does anyone here have Saturn in the 7th house? How do relationships feel for you?

I have so much to say about Amanda Knox’s chart. The wild part is that I haven’t even yet touched her Sun, Moon, or Rising. What immediately grabbed my attention was the sheer shape of her energy. The architecture of her houses alone is like a blueprint of her life, spilling secrets before I even glance at the details. It’s uncanny, almost cinematic, how the very layout of her chart mirrors the story the world came to know about her. Before we talk about planets or aspects, the chart itself is already screaming with meaning.

The Largest 12th House

Amanda Knox’s 12th house is HUGE.

It is so expansive that it stretches across three signs. It begins in Aries, sweeps through the entire sign of Taurus, and continues into the first third of Gemini. This scale alone makes it extraordinary.

The 12th house in astrology describes the most mysterious and elusive realms of someone’s energy, or aura. It governs what moves behind the scenes. It is the raw self that exists before identity, before words, before any performance. It is the dream before waking, the silence before speaking.

Amanda’s 12th house is anything but simple. With three signs feeding into it, her unconscious is layered and contradictory, difficult for others to define or contain. This complexity creates a presence that can feel mysterious, slippery, or even impossible to pin down. That is exactly how the world has perceived her. A woman projected upon, misunderstood, and endlessly debated.

Unexpected Moments of Assertiveness

Amanda’s Jupiter in Aries sits in the 12th house, and it starts her secret, hidden world on fire. Jupiter inflates the hidden layers of the psyche, such as her unconscious drives, secret impulses, and energies that move beneath the surface. Because this Jupiter is in Aries, its expression is bold, restless, and impulsive. Even when Amanda is not trying to project strength, it leaks out unconsciously, spilling into moments that others may read as aggression or defiance.

Amanda’s dreams, imagination, and intuition are anything but small. But Jupiter also enlarges struggles. Doubts, fears, and unconscious patterns do not stay contained. They grow louder, demanding to be faced.

With multiple signs tied into this 12th house, her boundaries blur. She absorbs the moods and projections of others, often without realizing it. This sensitivity makes her empathetic, but it also leaves her open to being misunderstood. People see their own fears reflected in her, and they project them back.

The Aries influence is what makes it volatile. It does not present as steady, visible assertiveness. Instead, it erupts in unexpected flashes. There may be a sharp reaction when she feels cornered, a sudden burst of boldness, a moment of physical energy that shocks those around her. To outsiders, this unpredictability is unsettling. To Amanda, it is instinct, a raw surge of energy from a part of herself she does not fully control.

Then there is the shadow of confinement. A large 12th house often signals periods of retreat or exile, times when life strips the ego bare. In Amanda’s case, it showed up in its most literal form: she was in jail. The 12th house is tied to prisons, hospitals, monasteries, and places where the self is forced inward. Where you are not a name, but a number. Now this does not mean every 12th house person is destined to be locked away. It means that, at some point, the outer world falls away and you are left to confront yourself in raw, unfiltered form. For Amanda, her expansive 12th house became the backdrop of a physical confinement where she met her own shadow with no mask, no escape, and no audience except the world projecting onto her.

Of course, no axis stands alone. An expansive 12th house always pairs with an equally expansive 6th house. Where the 12th reveals the hidden currents, the 6th shows how they play out in the visible world, in the body, in work, in daily life. For Amanda, this polarity set the stage of her energy. There are hidden forces of her unconscious, pushing and pulling with the routines of her everyday existence, the dream world bleeding into reality, the private self exposed under the brightest lights.

The Everyday as a Battleground

The 6th house is about your daily life, health, errands, chores, and a 9–5 job. Amanda’s 6th house is an entirely crowded stage where multiple archetypes are acting at once. Libra rules the cusp, but the house stretches across the entire sign of Scorpio and into the beginning of Sagittarius. That means her work, her health, and her routines are layered, complex, and often contradictory. Libra brings the desire for balance, while Scorpio demands transformation and confrontation with crisis. By the time Sagittarius enters, there is a restless urge to keep moving forward, to make sense of it all through growth and meaning.

Her Pluto in Scorpio intensifies this story dramatically. Every day reality for her is never neutral. Instead, it is a battleground where issues of power, survival, and transformation play out. Health can be a place of deep regeneration or struggle. Work can feel like a crucible, where she is constantly being tested and forced to evolve. Even routines, which are supposed to be mundane, take on an almost fated quality. In Amanda’s case, the events of her life echoed this symbolism: ordinary circumstances spiraled into extraordinary crises.

When you put Amanda Knox’s houses against the backdrop of her story, it is uncanny. A study abroad trip, something completely mundane and routine, became the setting for a shadowy global drama that blurred fact, perception, and projection. That is 6th and 12th house energy at full volume: the everyday colliding with the invisible forces of the unconscious.

The Pressure Cooker of Survival

When one part of the chart stretches wide, another shrinks. Because her 6th and 12th houses take up so much space, her 2nd and 8th houses end up compressed into thin slices. The themes of those houses, survival, security, intimacy, power, do not have room to unfold gradually. They are concentrated, like pressure in a sealed container. When they emerge, they hit hard.

The trial placed her entire sense of worth, her safety, and her survival on the line. She became a figure caught in the push and pull of control, intimacy, and power, not just in her personal relationships but under the judgment of courts, the press, and the public.

The Locked Rooms of Communication

Amanda’s chart holds another striking feature, called intercepted houses. In plain terms, it is like having a room that is locked from the inside. You know it exists, you feel its presence, but you cannot walk into it freely. These rooms remain sealed until life forces them open through crisis.

For Amanda, those locked rooms fall in her 3rd and 9th houses, communication and worldview. The 3rd governs how we speak and how others receive our words. The 9th rules distant travel, and belief systems. With both being intercepted, her voice often did not land as she intended, and her worldview clashed with cultural scripts being imposed on her.

Interceptions don’t mean silence forever. They mean energy that takes longer to claim, treasures hidden behind walls that only open with time. For Amanda, her voice and her beliefs were always there, waiting for their moment. In time, they can cut through confusion and projection with remarkable force. Her lived experience gives her a perspective on justice, truth, and culture that no one else can replicate.

Then came the trial. Miscommunication, mistranslation, and conflicting stories, pure 3rd house themes, spun her life into chaos. Meanwhile, the 9th house, tied to law and justice, became the battlefield where her fate was decided. What had been locked away in her chart was forced wide open under the glare of the media. Her intercepted houses, meant to unfold slowly, became front-page news.

The result was staggering. Amanda’s words, gestures, and beliefs were no longer just hers. They became global symbols, dissected and debated by millions. Her intercepted 3rd and 9th houses did not stay hidden. They were pried open in public, cracked wide for the world to crawl into, and what poured out was not truth or clarity, but projection, fear, and judgment.

The Cartwheel

One of the details the media latched onto in Amanda’s case was her behavior in the police station. It was the yoga poses and the cartwheel. To outsiders, these actions seemed bizarre, even incriminating, as though she lacked appropriate gravity in the middle of a murder investigation. But when you look at her chart, this reaction is exactly what you would expect. With Pluto in Scorpio in her 6th house, the body becomes the stage where hidden intensity gets released. In moments of unbearable psychological stress, she instinctively used movement as an outlet. What appeared to others as flippant or unsettling was, for her, a survival mechanism.

Her Jupiter in Aries in the 12th magnified this further. The 12th is the realm of unconscious impulses, and Jupiter makes everything louder. In Aries, those impulses lean toward sudden physical action. It was her way of reclaiming agency in a setting where she had none. But here is the 12th house twist. The actions taken from this hidden place are often misunderstood, projected upon, and blown up into symbols by others. What was, at its core, a nervous release of energy was instead turned into an indictment of her character. Combined with her intercepted 3rd house of communication, Amanda’s gestures did not translate the way she intended.

This is where her chart is almost hauntingly literal. The same placements that make her vulnerable to projection also amplify her every unconscious move. In a high-stakes environment like a police station, even a cartwheel became evidence, not of what she did, but of what people needed to believe about her.

My Advice to Amanda

If I were sitting with Amanda as her astrologer, I would tell her that her chart asks her to honor the balance between her daily routines and her inner world. They are not separate; they are mirrors. Building rituals that bridge the ordinary with the hidden will be healing for her. Simple, grounding habits like journaling, cooking, or stretching are practically lifelines.

I would remind her that her daily life will never feel neutral. Work, health, and routine are charged arenas for her. They are places where transformation is constantly happening. This doesn’t mean she is doomed to constant struggle. It means she has the power to turn even the smallest habits into tools of regeneration.

I would tell her she carries an expansive inner world, one that can be overwhelming if left unchanneled. But when she gives it space through dream work, meditation, or creative outlets, it can become her greatest strength. Jupiter here makes her a natural teacher for others who feel misunderstood or confined by circumstances. What she has lived through is not just tragedy or mischaracterization; it is also the material she can use to inspire and guide others.

If I could leave Amanda with one truth, it would be this: the same placements that exposed you to projection and confinement also gave you the strength to face yourself in ways most people never will. You know what it means to have the ego stripped away, to be seen through a thousand distorted mirrors, and still come back to the essence of who you are. That is your power. Your story is not about being defined by what was taken from you, but about how you transform those experiences into wisdom, empathy, and a voice that cannot be silenced.

When I look back to where I began, the sheer shape of your chart, the architecture of your houses, I see it all there. The blueprint was already speaking, long before anyone else wrote their version of your story. Your chart was always cinematic, but the ending is yours to write.

Amanda, do you need an astrologer? Call me!

Nearly twenty years later, the truth remains hidden somewhere between the ship’s glittering nightlife and its shadowy corners. This is the case that has haunted investigators, divided families, and kept the world guessing.

Background

George Smith, born October 3, 1978, was an American man whose disappearance aboard the Royal Caribbean MS Brilliance of the Seas became a notorious maritime mystery. The FBI has investigated his story, featured on Dateline NBC and 48 Hours, and even fictionalized in the Lifetime film Deadly Honeymoon.

Just eleven days earlier, George had married Jennifer Hagel. The newlyweds set off on a two-week honeymoon cruise through Greece, Turkey, Italy, and other Mediterranean destinations. But in the early hours of July 5, George disappeared.

That night, the couple had been gambling, drinking, and soaking in the cruise ship’s nightlife. Witness accounts suggest they were heavily intoxicated. Some say they argued before going their separate ways. Jennifer has no memory of the evening or what happened to her husband.

At around 4:00 a.m., George returned to his cabin, and it was the last time he was reported seen alive. At 4:30 a.m., Jennifer was found unconscious in a corridor far from her cabin.

Later on that morning, blood was found outside the cabin on the ship, going over the side of the boat. That suggested a violent encounter and a possible fall or push overboard. Witnesses placed George with a small group of passengers shortly before his disappearance, and suspicion quickly turned toward foul play.

In this investigation, I will use forensic astrology to examine two key moments in the timeline. The chart is set for 4:00 am, which was the last time George was seen alive.

Chart of When George was last seen

Astrology lovers, I would love to know how you interpret this! My analysis follows!

George’s State That Night

When I examine a forensic astrology chart, I start by looking at the rising sign to identify the person at the center of the case. In this chart, Gemini rises, so George is represented by Mercury. Mercury is in Leo, in the third section of the chart, also connected to Venus and the Black Moon Lilith.

This tells me that the night he disappeared, George was first around the communal parts of the ship, probably being a social butterfly. He was not being quiet or shy. He likely moved through the night with warmth and ease, striking up conversations, laughing, and making people feel comfortable around him. This was confirmed by the official news story. The Venus conjunction enhances this charm, giving him a super magnetic edge. He was making new friends easily and getting close to people that very night. Probably closer than he would normally get with people. He was just feeling all lovely dovey. He was also likely feeling a bit taboo. More likely to cross daring lines. Black Moon Lilith’s presence adds a more provocative and emotionally charged undertone. People were all around him, and it was very likely they were feeling some type of way about him. His conjunction with Lilith can easily induce feelings of jealousy, competitiveness, provocativeness, or even hostility in those who already carry tension or insecurity. The chart suggests that this magnetic energy, which served him well socially earlier in the night, may have played a role in drawing him into an encounter that turned dangerous once he was out of the public eye.

What Was Going On With the Perpetrator

When I am looking for the perpetrator in a forensic astrology chart, I look at the descendant, aka “the other person”. In the chart of George’s disappearance, the Descendant falls in Sagittarius. This means that the person or people who caused his death generally appeared easygoing or jovial. It also could suggest that their playfulness has masked recklessness, opportunism, or a tendency to take dangerous chances. With Sagittarius, there's often an association with foreigners, immigrants, or people from different cultural or educational backgrounds. He was seen with a group of new guy friends, which the media calls “Russian Americans”. Other sources are saying they are actually from Brooklyn, and Florida, and are second generation, so it’s weird that they are being referred to as Russian. Maybe it’s because of the Sagittarius energy on the descendant, that are making people identify them as foreigners, but I digress/ Wherever they were from, it was not near George’s home. This also hints to me that the wide was not involved. Because Sagittarius is mutable fire, there may be a “here one moment, gone the next” quality. The perpetrators might flee, relocate, or be hard to pin down. Since this case has not been officially solved 20 years later, this proves true.

What makes this more chilling is that Pluto was on the descendant. This says that the other party involved may have appeared jovial and fun, but that transformed into a huge power imbalance, probably through a psychological grip of manipulation. When George first met the perpetrators, they were likely showing a party-like side. But over their meeting, they transformed into something else. What began as an intriguing meeting could have carried an undercurrent of dominance or manipulation. Pluto often shifts encounters from charm to confrontation, and in this case, with dangerous consequences.

The Setting of the Disappearance

In this chart: Mercury = George, and Jupiter = Perpetrators

The chart shows that the meeting between George and the perpetrator happened with ease. The connection between their symbolic points suggests the two were able to strike up a rapport quickly and without suspicion. George may have shared information or lowered his guard without realizing the consequences, while the other person likely used charm, humor, or an engaging presence to slip past his defenses. There is a sense of mutual engagement in this early interaction, as if they were both participating in a dynamic that moved things forward more quickly than either realized. This initial comfort set the stage for what would later escalate into something far more dangerous.

The placement of the other party points to the setting of their meeting being one of pleasure and entertainment. It could have been a bar, a casino, a nightclub, or even a casual, flirtatious environment. The energy also allows for something more charged or suggestive, although that does not necessarily mean anything romantic or sexual happened. It could simply mean that the atmosphere encouraged risk-taking and blurred boundaries. It could also indicate they were drinking, gambling, or playing games where the mood was playful and inhibitions were lowered.

The perpetrator’s signature in the chart is joined with the South Node, which can indicate someone accustomed to thriving in such party environments. This suggests a person or group who knows how to win trust through fun and connection, but who is also prone to crossing lines when indulgence and excess take over. There is also a familiarity implied here. George may have felt a spark of recognition, a sense that these were people he could relate to, almost like the feeling of carefree play with childhood friends. That familiarity would have made it even easier for him to let his guard down as the night unfolded with laughter, conversation, and shared moments.

But beneath that surface warmth, there were undercurrents. The influence of Pluto shows that what began as a lighthearted interaction was already moving toward control, tension, and eventual confrontation. The shift seems to have been triggered by rivalry, competition, or the crossing of an unspoken line. The chart also shows a tension between this connection and the Sun’s placement, which points to the core reason for the falling out. This tension suggests the dispute was over either money or a tangible object of value. I sense that it was not just about financial worth, but about something with deep emotional meaning. Cancer energy in this position often points to possessions that carry personal or sentimental weight. It could have been heirlooms, keepsakes, or items tied to family or heritage.

I think it is most likely that it was a scenario where an item of importance was wagered or put at risk. Someone may have gambled and lost, setting off a chain of events fueled by pride, attachment, and the inability to walk away without reclaiming what was lost. The Moon’s placement in the chart links directly to the emotional heart of the conflict. It suggests that George was the one who parted with something significant, and that the dispute over this object was what turned the new acquaintances into antagonists. This could have been something George brought with him, or even something belonging to Jennifer. Maybe it was even time, or a more private exposure to Jennifer. That would be even more disturbing, but it does make sense with Lilith tied to all of this.

What stands out most is that this entire sequence of connections and conflicts leads straight into the 12th house of the chart. In the context of a crime, the 12th house is one of the most dangerous zones. It is the realm of hidden enemies, secret dealings, isolation, and events that happen out of sight. It often signals traps, cover-ups, and situations in which the victim is removed from public view. When the energy of an evening flows into this house, it often means the person is lured into a secluded or restricted space, sometimes willingly at first, but with a sudden shift into hostility or danger.

For George, this suggests that the trust and openness he displayed in the public areas of the ship may have been used to draw him into a private setting where the balance of power shifted completely. Once inside that space, his confidence and control could have been stripped away. He may have been cut off from the safety of others, both physically and emotionally, and placed in an environment that was confining in a way that mirrored a cell. Whether this was through direct force, intimidation, or subtle manipulation, the outcome was the same. He was isolated, vulnerable, and unable to call for help. In such a space, the confrontation could escalate without interference, and the final moments could unfold far from the eyes and ears of those who might have intervened.

The 8th House

This part of the chart is where we look for clues about the nature of George’s death. It is ruled by Capricorn, a sign that in event symbolism is often linked to falls from heights, rigid structures, and architectural elements such as balconies, stairwells, and ledges. Capricorn can also describe situations that unfold slowly over time, with a sense of inevitability. In this case, the imagery in the chart aligns more directly with the reports from the scene and the media accounts of bloodstains and a fall overboard. Here, the symbolism fits a literal “balcony climb before the fall” scenario.

Saturn, as the ruler of this part of the chart, becomes especially important. Its placement in the 2nd house, the realm of possessions, value, and personal security, ties the fatal outcome directly to a dispute over something material. Saturn in Cancer is in detriment, which weakens its stability and brings in themes of emotional pressure, defensiveness, and the heavy weight of personal or family-related attachments. This is not just about any possession. The chart points to an item with deep emotional resonance, something that was guarded closely and carried significance beyond its financial worth.

The symbolism suggests that the confrontation was not purely about ownership but about the security and meaning attached to the object. The stakes were personal, and the argument likely carried undertones of pride, protection, and even perceived betrayal. What may have started as a heated verbal exchange over this valued possession appears to have escalated rapidly. In the confined and volatile space of a cruise ship cabin and its balcony, that escalation could have turned physical in moments. The result was a deadly chain of events in which the symbolic weight of Saturn, representing control, restriction, and finality, manifested as a fall from a high place, ending in tragedy.

Conclusion - How the Night Unfolded

On the night of July 5, 2005, George Smith moved through the ship’s nightlife with his usual warmth and charm. In the casino, bars, and other social spaces, he drew people in easily. He laughed, played games, and made strangers feel like old friends. That same ease also made him stand out in a crowd, catching the attention of a small group of men who seemed friendly and open at first. Over the course of the night, they shared drinks, conversations, and moments of camaraderie that gave George the impression of trust. They played in a gaming area, like a casino on the ship. As the hours passed, the tone began to shift. What had started as lighthearted fun took on a more competitive and tense edge. The new acquaintances George had been enjoying the night developed a huge power advantage over the situation.

The chart is strongly suggesting the possibilities that George was gambling with this group of people, and the game got really intense. George may have placed a very expensive or important object up for a bet with these guys while gaming, since he was feeling more daring than usual. This object has a huge personal or sentimental value. It could have been something that held emotional weight, perhaps connected to his family or his identity.

I think the object could have been an heirloom passed down from his grandfather. He put it at stake in an alcohol fueled gambling match. He didn’t think the other party would take it. Then he lost, and things got heated. At some point, the group left the public areas and moved to George’s cabin. It shows in the chart that this meeting moved into a more private place. Behind closed doors, the disagreement grew sharper. Words may have been exchanged that turned the atmosphere hostile. The close quarters and heightened emotions created a dangerous mix. The argument escalated into physical conflict. Foulplay. The final moments appear to have taken place near or on the cabin’s balcony. This was a confined space with a fatal drop just beyond the railing. In the heat of the confrontation, George ended up going over the side. Whether from a deliberate push, a forceful struggle, or a sudden loss of balance, his fall was rapid and final. The blood found on the side of the ship later that morning pointed to violence rather than an accident.

By the time George’s absence was noticed, the men he had been with were gone. The camaraderie from earlier in the night had dissolved into a silence that left no clear answers. The night began with connection, laughter, and the easy glow of friendship, but it ended in a violent break that severed all sense of safety. Nearly twenty years later, the truth remains locked in those final moments on the balcony, hidden between the laughter that started the night and the silence that followed his disappearance.

I do not believe Jennifer was directly involved in George’s death. For one, her profile does not match that of the perpetrators shown in the chart, which points to someone who was not close to George before that night. To confirm this, I moved the disappearance chart forward by thirty minutes to 4:30 a.m., the time she was found unconscious in the hallway. By then, George was already gone. The new chart still has Gemini rising, but now the Moon in Gemini sits directly on the Ascendant. This indicates that she was caught in the same chain of events rather than acting separately from them. The Moon’s placement on the horizon points to a deeply emotional and personal connection to what had happened. It suggests that the object at the center of the argument, the one that turned the night dangerous, may have belonged to her. It could have been a piece of her jewelry or another possession with strong sentimental value. It is even possible that time with her was part of the wager. In the earlier chart, the Moon opposed Pluto, showing confrontation. By the time Jennifer was found, that opposition had already passed, which fits with her being discovered after the worst of the conflict had ended. Far from being a participant in what happened to George, she appears to have been another victim of the night’s unraveling.

George Smith’s last night was a collision of charm, chance, and danger. He was the kind of man who could strike up a conversation with anyone, and on a cruise ship full of strangers, that openness became both his strength and his vulnerability. He crossed paths with a group whose friendliness was a mask, whose intentions shifted from harmless to predatory in a matter of hours. The confrontation that followed was fueled by pride, alcohol, and something of value, whether money, possessions, or something that was perceived to have gone from George to the other party. Jennifer was removed from the scene before it reached its peak, leaving George surrounded by people who saw an opportunity. By dawn, the night’s laughter had been replaced by silence, and the Mediterranean carried away the only witness who knew the full truth.

I would also like to note that this interpretation is only a basic outline of what the charts suggest. A much fuller and more detailed story could be uncovered by exploring additional layers of the chart, such as the deeper symbolic patterns, and how these align with witness accounts and known facts. The charts offer many more clues than what has been shared here, and with a closer, more technical examination, an even richer and more precise picture of the night could emerge

Is there a case you would like me to explore on Substack, using an astrology analysis? Let me know in the comments! I love doing the ones with multiple time stamps!!

American Eagle recently launched a new ad campaign starring Sydney Sweeney, which quickly sparked major controversy across social media.

The campaign, titled “Sydney Sweeney Has Great Jeans,” plays on a pun between “jeans” and “genes.” In the ad, Sydney Sweeney discusses how genetics influences physical traits like hair and eye color, before delivering the punchline, “My jeans are blue.” The visuals evoke a nostalgic, Calvin Klein-inspired vibe, featuring Sweeney in loose, baggy denim that contrasts with the close-up shots of her striking blonde hair and piercing blue eyes. The styling and cinematography emphasize a clean, retro aesthetic that highlights a very specific and classic ideal of beauty.

Almost immediately, the campaign ignited controversy due to its heavy focus on Sweeney’s appearance, which many saw as promoting a narrow, traditional standard of beauty. The clever wordplay around “great genes” combined with the visual emphasis on her blue jeans sparked criticism, with many arguing the ad felt exclusionary and tone-deaf in today’s more inclusive cultural climate. Rather than celebrating diversity, the campaign was perceived as reinforcing outdated ideals, leading to widespread debate and backlash on social media platforms.

I saw on Tiktok some World War II historians and propaganda experts chiming in, saying the ad echoed the kind of messaging used by Nazi Germany to promote “perfect” genetic traits. The focus on blonde hair and blue eyes struck a nerve, and comparisons to old propaganda posters started circulating online. For many, it felt tone-deaf and out of touch with today’s conversations around beauty and inclusion.

While some see the backlash as exaggerated, many argue it highlights a crucial conversation about the messages major brands put out, especially around who gets celebrated in fashion, how beauty is defined, and how outdated ideas can quietly reemerge under fresh packaging.

I needed to dig deeper on this one! I generated an astrology chart for the campaign’s launch to uncover the hidden meanings behind the ad. What was the real message American Eagle was sending? Did they fully understand the impact of their choices? Even more important, are they intentionally or unintentionally promoting eugenics?

This chart has been cast for July 23, 2025, at 9:01 am in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. This was when the campaign first made its appearance on Instagram (I scanned the HTML for a time stamp and put it in a UNIX converter lol). Pittsburgh is where American Eagle is headquartered, so that is where all those corporate meetings were located.

The Polished Facade: Virgo Rising’s Role in the Campaign

The rising sign of an ad campaign represents its overall appearance, its first impression, style, and vibe. Just like a person’s rising sign shapes how they come across to others, the campaign’s rising sign sets the tone for how the audience initially experiences the brand message. It influences the visual style, the atmosphere, and the way the campaign “shows up” publicly.

This ad has a Virgo rising, which means Virgo’s energy shapes the entire aesthetic of the campaign. The use of neutral colors like beige and navy creates a sense of calm, order, and approachability, steering clear of anything flashy (except for Sweenys body). As a Mercury-ruled sign, Virgo also brings a tech-savvy edge to the visuals. That explains subtle nods to technology, words, and clean lines. There is some earthy sweetness, with images of Sydney kissing puppies. There is a play on modesty, too, where the camera zooms in on her chest, and she says, “eyes up here”. Even the crisp, easy-to-read typography reflects Virgo’s eye for detail that is intentional, organized, and quietly confident.

The precision in this campaign is hard to miss. There definitely were layers of planning, meeting after meeting, draft after draft, each detail meticulously reviewed and signed off. It’s unlikely that such a bold message and play on eugenics could slip through unnoticed. More likely, American Eagle made a calculated choice, intentionally tapping into America’s ongoing social and political divides. They knew what they were doing. The result of this planning likely did exactly what they intended. The ad’s divisiveness sparked a heated cultural debate and put American Eagle front and center in the public eye, even if much of the attention was critical.

Here’s where the symbolism becomes truly unsettling. Placements in Virgo from 3–4 degrees represent innocence, unity, and the healing of old divides. At its core, this degree calls for us to move beyond inherited beliefs about difference and to overcome the barriers that separate us. But in this campaign, we see the shadow side of that symbolism. Instead of championing genuine unity, the ad wraps itself in a veneer of innocence while selling a narrow and exclusionary standard of beauty, echoing the language of genetics in a way that is uncomfortably close to eugenic thinking.

Rather than dissolving prejudice, the campaign exploits it. The result is harmful, as the ad capitalizes on cultural wounds instead of working to mend them. The controversy that follows is evidence that exclusion and prejudice can hide in plain sight, dressed up as wholesomeness and “good genes.” The campaign exposes just how far we still have to go to fulfill the true promise of unity that this degree aspires to.

Mercury in Retrograde: The Shadow Strategy in Leo’s 12th House

When a chart has Virgo rising, its Mercury placement takes the helm, setting the tone for everything that follows. At the time this campaign launched, Mercury was in retrograde, which helps explain why the shadow side of Virgo’s perfectly polished image came through so strongly.

Mercury retrograde in the 12th house in Leo points to a lot happening behind the scenes. These were hidden motives, careful planning, or even strategies that aren’t immediately visible to the public. While retrograde Mercury is usually associated with confusion and missteps, in the 12th house it also suggests that the campaign’s messaging may have been deliberately crafted to stir controversy or keep certain intentions under wraps.

For American Eagle, this placement supports the idea that they were fully aware of the risks and possible backlash their campaign would cause. The careful, almost secretive planning suggested by Mercury in the 12th indicates that decisions were made with a full understanding that the provocative messaging would ignite debates. The public face of the campaign might look chaotic or confusing, but beneath the surface, there’s a strategy at work. American Eagle likely used spectacle and ambiguity to stay in the spotlight.

According to the chart, I can say with certainty that American Eagle didn’t stumble into controversy. They likely anticipated, and perhaps even intended, the strong reactions, knowing that even negative attention could drive conversation and brand visibility. One that traded clarity and unity for shock value and viral impact.

Commanding Attention: The Sun’s Power in the 11th House

The Sun of an ad campaign reveals what the campaign is fundamentally trying to express or achieve. It tells us what the campaign’s main theme is, and what it wants to shine a light on.

With the Sun at 0 degrees Leo in the 11th house, American Eagle’s campaign was unmistakably engineered to capture the public’s attention and inject itself into the cultural conversation. This is a moment of reinvention, with the brand determined to stand out and shape the narrative. Launched at the very start of Leo, the campaign projects confidence and boldness, seeking recognition from the broader community and pushing itself into the spotlight.

However, this desire for visibility quickly crosses into spectacle. Rather than using their platform to foster genuine connection or positive social change, American Eagle leans into controversy and headline-chasing tactics. The campaign’s strategy prioritizes being seen and talked about, even if it means fueling division or capitalizing on sensitive topics. In doing so, the brand exchanges lasting trust and substance, for quick hits of attention. What could have been a moment of meaningful leadership in the public sphere instead reads as opportunism. It is simply an attempt to dominate the social feed, not to bring people together. The result is a fleeting burst of notoriety but at the cost of undermining the very unity and inclusivity the campaign claims to champion.

Tides of Emotion: Cancer Moon’s Big Impact on Community Response

The Moon in the chart represents public mood and response. Its sign, house, and aspects show how people will emotionally react, how the campaign will be talked about, and what feelings it might stir up.

The Cancer Moon conjunct Jupiter in the 11th house reveals a deliberate emotional strategy behind the campaign. It was aiming to tap deeply into collective feelings of belonging and nostalgia while amplifying those emotions on a broad social stage. Cancer Moon seeks comfort and connection, and Jupiter magnifies that energy, especially in the 11th house of public opinion and community.

This placement suggests American Eagle intentionally stirred strong emotions to provoke a reaction and dominate the cultural conversation. The campaign’s emotional appeal was carefully crafted to resonate with a specific sense of identity, one that feels familiar to a narrow audience, while simultaneously alienating others. This amplified emotional reach ensured the brand became a lightning rod for debate, fueling the kind of passionate discussion that keeps it trending and in the public eye.

In this way, the Moon-Jupiter conjunction acted as a magnifying glass for division rather than unity, turning feelings of comfort into a strategic tool for controversy. The campaign stirred the pot, using emotional marketing to drive visibility and attention, regardless of the backlash it would provoke. It got people talking. It promoted the brand in the weirdest way ever.

From Control to Chaos: The Shift of Virgo to Pisces

The South Node and North Node in an ad campaign chart show the “karmic axis” of the campaign. The South Node tells us here what American Eagle is leaving behind, and the North Node is showing us what American Eagle is looking to gain from this campaign.

The South Node in Virgo, anchored in the first house, exposes the brand’s old habit of playing it safe. Traditionally, American Eagle’s advertising has centered on authenticity, relatability, and a friendly, inclusive vibe. Their campaigns usually featured groups of diverse young people in casual, everyday settings. Think college campuses, summer adventures, or hanging out with friends. The brand was known for promoting body positivity and self-expression, especially through their Aerie sub-brand, which gained attention for the #AerieREAL movement showcasing unretouched photos and a wide range of body types, skin tones, and personal styles. American Eagle leaned into an aspirational but approachable tone, often highlighting themes like confidence, optimism, and friendship. Their visual storytelling was gentle, youthful, and community-focused, using social media, carousels, and video ads to build a sense of belonging.

Now, in a scramble for cultural relevance, American Eagle’s latest campaign dives headfirst into its Pisces North Node era. It is embracing messiness, ambiguity, and provocation over genuine connection. Sydney Sweeney was the face of this shift. She was styled as a modern sex symbol, she wears oversized men’s jeans in a campaign that leans on the “great genes/jeans” pun. While the wordplay gestures at inclusivity or breaking gender norms, the visuals are murky at best. Is this ad challenging stereotypes or just rebranding the male gaze with a new celebrity? There are no clear answers, and that’s the point. The campaign is crafted to confuse, ignite debate, and court controversy, turning Piscean haze into a marketing tactic.

It is about grabbing attention, no matter the cost. Gone is the reassuring predictability of American Eagle’s past. In its place is spectacle, using ambiguity and culture war flashpoints to keep the brand trending. Instead of bridging divides, the campaign blurs the line between innocence and sexuality, inclusion and exclusion, trading real values for virality. It’s a calculated risk: stir up the headlines, keep people talking. But there’s a downside. By exploiting confusion and amplifying cultural tensions, American Eagle risks alienating people who already feel excluded, leaving even fewer who see themselves reflected in the brand.

Final Thoughts: The True Cost of Controversy

American Eagle’s “Sydney Sweeney Has Great Jeans” campaign is a deliberate move to grab attention and spark debate. Behind the polished look and nostalgic vibe, the brand made a clear choice: to trade real connection and inclusion for controversy and viral buzz. The astrology chart shows they knew exactly what they were doing, using the campaign to stir strong reactions and keep people talking.

Instead of pushing forward with fresh ideas about beauty and belonging, the campaign leans on old, exclusionary messages dressed up in new packaging. It creates division rather than unity, making us question what brands stand for. The biggest cost here is who gets left out and how far we still have to go to build true inclusivity.

That said, the controversy seemed to pay off financially. American Eagle’s stock rose between 7% and 10% in the days following the launch, showing that stirring the pot can be good for business. But it begs the question, who is buying their jeans? And what kind of message does that send about the values behind the brand?

Right now, when the world is asking for honest representation, American Eagle’s choice to fuel controversy instead of connection sends a clear message: grabbing attention is not the same as earning trust. Without trust, no brand can truly grow or belong in the future.

What did you think of the ad? Did it make you cringe, or catch your attention? How has it shaped your view of American Eagle? And what are your thoughts on the astrology behind it?

Did you know you can actually hear your zodiac sign?

You’ve probably read your horoscope, studied your birth chart, or picked up fun astrology facts online. But what if you could hear your zodiac sign?

According to esoteric and vibrational astrology traditions, each zodiac sign corresponds to a musical note. These pairings are put together for a reading, so they are not randomly matched. They are based on the belief that every sign holds a unique energetic frequency, and certain tones in music mirror that resonance. You can connect with each zodiac sign on a whole new level. Play each note individually (you can do it on a music app from your phone if you don’t have an instrument). As you listen to each note, pay close attention to what each note does to your energy. What does it make you think about? How does it make you feel? Let yourself feel the difference in each note. Can you connect it to anything in your life? Once you learn which note matches your sign, you can begin to use sound as a tool for self-connection, emotional healing, and creative flow.

Here is a quick list of the notes for your reference. We will go deeper into each note at the end of this article!

Aries ♈ is Note C

Taurus ♉ is Note C♯ / D♭

Gemini ♊ is Note D

Cancer ♋ is Note D♯ / E♭

Leo ♌ is Note E

Virgo ♍ is Note F

Libra ♎ is Note F♯ / G♭

Scorpio ♏ is Note G

Sagittarius ♐ is Note G♯ / A♭

Capricorn ♑ is Note A

Aquarius ♒ is Note A♯ / B♭

Pisces ♓ is Note B

How can this knowledge be applied

There are so many cool ways to apply this knowledge. Once you do, sound becomes even more sensory. It goes beyond hearing, and it becomes something you feel. When you understand that both musical notes and zodiac signs carry distinct energetic frequencies, you begin to see how sound and astrology can work together to activate, balance, or enhance parts of your inner life. It’s like giving an archetype a soundtrack. When you start to work with these notes intentionally, the effects can be both subtle and transformative.

Let’s say you want to channel confidence and courage. Aries energy, ruled by Mars, is all about boldness, and its note is C. Playing or singing that note with intention can help shift your body and mind into a more empowered state. Over time, your nervous system can begin to associate that tone with action, drive, and momentum. If you’re looking to slow down, ground yourself, and reconnect to the present moment, Taurus’s note (C♯) can create a sense of earthy calm and comfort.

This practice deepens when you bring it into ritual. If you’re working with a New Moon or Full Moon, playing the note associated with that lunation’s zodiac sign helps set the emotional tone. For example, a New Moon in Virgo is an ideal time to call for clarity and refinement. Playing the note F, Virgo’s tone, during meditation or intention setting can help you access the clean, healing energy that Virgo offers. These tones bypass the analytical mind and speak directly to the emotional and energetic body, often creating shifts you can feel even if you can’t explain them.

You can use specific notes for emotional and spiritual healing. Feeling stuck in grief?Try playing the note B, which corresponds to Pisces, the sign of release and divine surrender. Need an energetic boost? Aries’s note C is your go-to. Want laser-sharp focus? Virgo’s F note can help you settle in and refine your attention. These tones become like tools, accessible and adaptable to your mood and needs.

You don’t need a fancy setup to get started. Sometimes when I want to connect to a certain vibration, I go on YouTube and search for “pitch training” along with the note I want to hear. You’ll find plenty of free videos that play each note in different octaves. I first discovered these while training my ear to play guitar, but now I use them for much more: ritual, reflection, and even mood-shifting on tough days. You could also play the notes on a piano app on your phone.

More Ideas

One of the most powerful ways to connect with your chart through sound is by playing your Sun, Moon, and Rising sign notes together as a chord. These three placements make up your core self, and when you layer their notes, you’re essentially composing your energetic resonance. For example, if your Sun is in Leo (E), your Moon is in Cancer (D♯), and your Rising is in Libra (F♯), playing E + D♯ + F♯ together can help your Sun, Moon, and Rising feel integrated, whole, and deeply aligned. Maybe they can even calm your oppositions and squares.

You can also sync with cosmic weather. During a New Moon, play the note of the sign it’s in while you set intentions. During a Full Moon, use the note to help you release and reset. These tones act like tuning forks, helping you vibrate in harmony with what the sky is doing. It's a way to feel cosmically supported, like the universe is humming alongside you.

If you struggle with relationship boundaries, playing Scorpio’s note (G) can help you tap into your emotional strength and psychic instinct. If your anxiety is getting the better of you, try Pisces’ note (B) to calm your thoughts and reconnect with flow. It makes it so easy to center yourself without needing to “do” anything.

You can even pair sound with communication and expression, especially through your Mercury sign. Play your Mercury sign’s note while journaling, having deep conversations, or brainstorming. It sets a tone for clarity and authentic voice. When it’s time to rest, try playing your Moon sign’s note before bed. It can soothe your emotional body and support peaceful dreams, especially if you're doing inner child work or processing heavy feelings.

If you’re feeling stuck or unmotivated, you can turn to your Mars sign. Playing that note can reignite your energy and help you push through inertia. It’s especially helpful during workouts, creative bursts, or any moment that requires willpower. When you want to create something beautiful, maybe art, a meal, or even your makeup look, play with the Venus sign and feel it! Your Venus sign’s note is the perfect place to begin. Venus rules art, pleasure, and sensuality, and her tone helps you channel your natural aesthetic magic.

You can even make yourself a playlist based on your birth chart. Choose songs in the key of each planet’s sign. If your Moon is in Gemini (note D), gather songs in D major or D minor to reflect your emotional world. Over time, you may start to notice that certain keys evoke particular moods, and those moods align with your planetary energy.

This is vibrational astrology. It turns your birth chart into a living soundscape, and your body becomes the instrument. Once you begin working with sound this way, you may find it becomes an intuitive language you can return to again and again. Below, we’ll explore the twelve zodiac signs, each one paired with its corresponding note.

Let this guide show you how to activate, soothe, or amplify different parts of your energy, one tone at a time.

The 12 Tones of the Zodiac

Aries ♈ is Note C

The note C is bold, clean, and foundational. In music, it’s where everything begins. In astrology, Aries plays a similar role. It is the first sign of the zodiac, the initiator, the spark before the flame. This is where the zodiac wheel starts, where life surges forward without hesitation.

When I play a C chord on guitar, there’s a bounce to it. Sometimes it sounds like someone running, skipping, or leaping ahead with joy. That’s Aries energy. It moves with momentum, like a child charging into the world or a warrior stepping onto a new path.

Playing or singing the note C with intention taps that part of you that knows how to begin, even without a plan.

Musically, C is often the tonal home base. Songs may wander, but they resolve back to C because it feels grounded and complete. Aries has the same effect. Its energy brings clarity through action. When life feels stuck, C can reset your system. It wakes up courage, boldness, and motion.

Play this note when you need to push through fear, take the first step, or reignite your passion. C is more than a sound. It’s a call to raise your heart, heat, and momentum.

Taurus ♉ is Note C♯ / D♭

The note C♯ is smooth, rich, and deeply rooted. In music, it carries a velvety kind of depth, something slower, warmer, and undeniably present. Taurus is steady, sensual, and tuned into the physical world. It draws your attention, knows how to stay, and how to savor.

On the guitar, the C♯ chord feels unhurried, intentional, and rich with presence.There’s a fullness to the sound, a kind of weight that hums through your fingertips. It holds its space, confident that you’ll be drawn in.

When you play or sing this note with intention, you’re calling yourself back to the body. It’s a sonic balm for anxiety and overstimulation, an invitation to relax your jaw, breathe deeply, and ground into the beauty of the moment.

Use it when you need to slow down, feel safe, or move through the world with quiet magnetism. C♯ reminds you that stillness is a strength, and pleasure is power in motion.

Gemini ♊ is Note D

The note D is light, quick, and full of movement. It feels like a conversation mid-flight, with words tumbling out, thoughts sparking left and right. This matches Gemini energy perfectly. Gemini is the messenger of the zodiac, ruled by Mercury and driven by curiosity, connection, and cleverness.

On the guitar, the D chord has a bright, skipping rhythm. It sounds like tapping your fingers on a desk while you think, or the flutter of pages turning fast. It moves through the air like a breeze, carrying laughter, questions, and ideas. You can almost hear it talking to you.

This is a great note to play when you’re writing, speaking, studying, or brainstorming. It activates the mind, stimulates the nervous system, and clears mental fog. It’s also a great antidote for emotional heaviness. If you’ve been overthinking or feeling weighed down, D helps shake off stuck thoughts and shift your perspective.

Play the note D when you need clarity, connection, or a spark of playfulness. It invites movement, dialogue, and a healthy dose of curiosity. Let it remind you that thinking can be fun, and that your mind is one of your greatest superpowers when it stays light, open, and in motion.

Cancer ♋ is Note D♯ / E♭

The note D♯ has a tender, watery tone. It comes in very slowly. It pulls at the heart in a way that feels both nostalgic and sacred. Cancer is the sign of memory, emotion, and protection, ruled by the Moon and shaped by the tides of feeling.

On guitar, the D♯ chord has a slightly mournful, glowing quality. It sounds like the beginning of a story you’ve already lived, or the moment right before tears fall. It’s the sound of candlelight flickering in a quiet room, of waves brushing the shore while you stare up at the sky. There’s softness in it, but also the power of vulnerability, of staying close to what matters.

This note is ideal for emotional release, heart-healing, or calling in safety when your inner world feels raw. Play it when you're reconnecting with your roots, tending to grief, or curling inward for self-care. Let it hold space for you.

Use D♯ when you need to feel without editing yourself. When you’re longing for home, or wanting to create one inside your own body. It reminds you that being sensitive is a gift. When channeled with love, it becomes your strength.

Leo ♌ is Note E

The note E shines and feels yellow. It’s bright, golden, and full of presence. In music, E sounds like a spotlight that is clear, vibrant, and impossible to ignore. It rings with confidence, joy, and expression. Just like Leo. This is the sign of the performer, the creator, the heart-led leader. Where Cancer nurtures in the quiet, Leo steps forward to be seen.

On the guitar, the E chord is loud and full-bodied. It’s funny because sometimes when I play it on the guitar, it sounds like a lion roaring to me. It also feels like the sound of open arms, of applause, of someone telling their story with their whole chest.

Play the note E when you want to reconnect with your passion, power, and voice. It’s perfect for moments when you need to believe in yourself again. When you want to shine without shrinking. When you’re creating, performing, or simply remembering, that joy is your birthright.

E commands attention a radiant presence. Let it awaken the Leo in you, the house it rules for you, the part that loves boldly, speaks from the heart, and reminds others how to do the same.

Virgo ♍ is Note F

The note F is precise, steady, and quietly powerful. It feels softer than its other notes, but at the same time, it holds a lot of clarity and grace. Virgo energy works the same way. It's pretty. It is refined. It organizes. It notices what others overlook. Virgo turns inward, tending to the details that hold everything together.

On the guitar, the F chord has a firm, contained resonance. It feels like a deep breath taken just before speaking carefully chosen words. There’s something sculpted about it. Each note lands where it’s supposed to, creating a sound that feels clean and well-crafted, like pressed linen or the sharp edge of a freshly sharpened pencil. It even feels kind of feminine,

You can play the note F when you’re seeking focus, calm, or clarity. It’s the perfect tone for editing, cleaning, writing, or healing. It quiets the noise around you and invites structure without rigidity. It helps you cut through distraction and return to what matters.

F is the sound of alignment. It reminds you that discipline can be soft. That attention to detail is an act of devotion. That tending to your inner and outer space is a sacred kind of magic.

Libra ♎ is Note F♯ / G♭

The note F♯ is graceful, fluid, and beautifully balanced. It’s the kind of tone that glides instead of marches. Libra energy, ruled by Venus, carries the same signature that’s charming, relational, and devoted to harmony. Libra fills the space with beauty and connection.

On the guitar, the F♯ chord rings like a whispered invitation or a soft gaze across a room. It’s polished, but not cold. Elegant, but not distant. There’s a kind of emotional intelligence woven into its sound, like it knows how to hold both sides of a story at once. It lingers with just the right amount of longing.

This note is ideal when you’re seeking peace, resolution, or relational clarity. Play it when you’re navigating conflict, making art, or reconnecting with your sense of aesthetic flow. It holds the tension of opposites and helps you find the center between them.

F♯ is the sound of connection. It reminds you that beauty matters. The way you say something is just as important as what you say. That balance is about having a good airy flow, and moves with harmony.

Scorpio ♏ is Note G

The note G is rich, powerful, and full of depth. It vibrates low and steady, like something ancient stirring beneath the surface. Scorpio energy lives here, in the shadow, in the truth, and in the emotional undercurrents most people avoid.

On the guitar, the G chord hums with substance. It sinks into it and cuddles with it deep down. There’s a moody fullness to its tone, like a secret being shared or a door opening to a hidden room. It’s not loud in volume, but it carries weight. It feels like eye contact that doesn’t flinch, like silence that says more than words ever could.

It's funny because I have a Scorpio Mercury, and my natural voice is at G. This would be an interesting study, two data points that are easy to obtain, but fun to analyze.

Play the note G when you need to confront what’s real. When you’re doing shadow work, setting boundaries, or reclaiming power that was once handed away. It’s the sound of intensity channeled with purpose. Of desire sharpened into clarity.

Sagittarius ♐ is Note G♯ / A♭

The note G♯ is bright, stretching, and wide open. It has a restless sparkle to it, like a bird taking off or a question that leads to ten more. Sagittarius energy lives in that upward motion. It seeks the horizon, the truth, the next great idea. This note does give the feeling of chasing freedom and meaning with fire in its stride.

On the guitar, the G♯ chord feels like open sky. It soars with a kind of urgency in its tone, like it wants to lift you out of your chair and send you searching. It’s the sound of spinning a globe, booking a one-way ticket, or staying up all night talking about philosophy, hope, and why we’re here.

Play the note G♯ when you need to break out of a rut or remember that life is bigger than the moment you're in. It’s perfect for travel days, vision boards, long walks with long thoughts, and expansive conversations that leave you feeling more alive.

This is the sound of exploration. Of optimism that refuses to dim. Of fire that knows it’s meant to spread. Let G♯ remind you that growth comes from leaping, learning, and laughing along the way.

Capricorn ♑ is Note A

The note A is strong, stable, and deliberate. In music, A is often used to tune instruments. It’s a reference point, a tone of alignment. Capricorn carries that same grounded authority. It builds. It plans. It endures and seeks mastery.

On the guitar, the A chord feels like a mountain beneath your feet. It rings with focus and weight, but never chaos. There’s a clean, almost architectural quality to it. It sounds like carefully placed stones forming something lasting. It’s the sound of discipline, of structure, of progress made one step at a time.

Play the note A when you’re setting goals, organizing your thoughts, or committing to something long-term. It’s perfect for work sessions, project planning, and moments when you need to feel capable, clear, and composed.

This is the sound of inner strength. Of promises kept. Of climbing, not because it’s easy, but because something at the top is calling you. Let the note A remind you that you are the structure. That your time, your effort, and your vision are all sacred.

Aquarius ♒ is Note A♯ / B♭

The note A♯ is sharp in the best way. It’s crisp, bright, and charged with momentum. There’s something slightly off-center about it. Like it catches your ear and makes you pay attention. Aquarius energy does the same. It disrupts, innovates, and reimagines what’s possible. Where Capricorn lays the foundation, Aquarius breaks the mold.

On the guitar, the A♯ chord feels like static in the air before a lightning strike. It buzzes with potential and unpredictability. The sound has edges in a way that challenges you to listen differently. It’s the soundtrack of invention, rebellion, and the spark of new thought.

Play the note A♯ when you’re brainstorming, inventing, or refusing to follow the rules. It’s excellent for group work, visionary planning, tech-based creativity, and breaking out of old mental patterns. It shakes things loose in the best way.

This is the sound of the future. Of intuition that comes out of nowhere and leaves you changed. Of being just far enough outside the box to see the whole thing clearly. Let A♯ remind you that weird is a superpower, something innovative can spark through one single, unexpected note.

Pisces ♓ is Note B

The note B is soft, spacious, and a little elusive. It feels like it’s floating just above you, shimmering at the edge of what can be heard or held. Pisces energy moves the same way. It dissolves boundaries, blurs edges, and invites you into the dream.

On the guitar, the B chord has a wistful, watery quality. It sounds like a memory slipping through your fingers or the hush after a powerful dream. It lingers in the emotional spaces that can’t always be named. There’s a longing in its tone, but also peace.

Play the note B when you need to soften, surrender, or reconnect with something greater than yourself. It’s perfect for meditation, journaling, sleep rituals, and emotional healing. This tone opens your inner world and invites release.

The sound B has an intuitive feel to it. It feels dreamy. Maybe even something magical that doesn’t need to be explained. B can remind you that stillness is sacred, and that drifting isn’t the same as being lost. Sometimes, the deepest truths are the ones that come in a whisper.

It would be fun to try and let your chart become a soundscape. See what it connects you to. Let your healing be something you can actually hear. Or use it to connect to each sign more. Connect the feelings the notes give you to the feelings you get for each sign.

Let me know if you do any of these; I would love to hear about your experiences. I would also love to know if you relate to any of the notes or chords on a vibrational level. Do any notes remind you of a certain image? Tell me about it!

On the morning of March 24, 1998, 23-year-old Amy Lynn Bradley vanished from a cruise ship sailing off the coast of Curaçao. One moment, she was seen relaxing on the balcony with her family, then the next, she was gone without a trace. Despite extensive searches and international media coverage, no body was ever found, and sightings over the years have suggested a darker possibility: that Amy didn’t fall overboard, but was taken. Her disappearance remains one of the most chilling and mysterious cases at sea.

In 2025, during the Saturn return of her disappearance, Netflix released a documentary that brought her case back into public view. I watched it, and like many, I couldn’t shake the feeling that something was missing. I wanted clarity. So I did what I know how to do.I drew up the chart for the moment she was discovered missing. I made the chart for 5:45am, close to the port at Willemstad Curacao.What I found in the sky was chilling. The astrology didn’t point to an accident. It told the story of a woman who was taken, hidden in plain sight.

Pisces Rising: The Mask of the Vanishing

I cast the chart for 5:45 a.m., halfway between the last confirmed sighting of Amy by her father at 5:30 a.m. and the moment she was found missing around 6:00 a.m. No

matter the exact minute, the Ascendant would have remained in Pisces. Pisces rising sets the tone of the event. It was blurry, surreal, and emotionally charged. It symbolizes something that dissolves without warning, like slipping into fog. Pisces also rules the ocean, making it easy to assume drowning. But Pisces isn't just water. It is an illusion. Disappearance. Porous boundaries. Amy was drinking that night, possibly drugged, and the chart shows that her psychic defenses were wide open.

Aries Stellium in the 1st house

But what makes this chart truly compelling is what comes after that fog. Her disappearance has an Aries Sun in the 1st house, tightly flanked by Mars, Mercury, and Saturn, all in Aries. This is not the astrology of someone falling. It is the astrology of someone being moved. Aries is physical, aggressive, fast. Mars is in its domicile, strong and impulsive. Mercury is quick and persuasive. Saturn is cold, controlling, and suppressive, and in Aries, it becomes harsh and coercive.

These three planets were stacked at the end of the 1st house, pushing toward the 2nd. In traditional astrology, the 2nd house rules value and the body. This suggests that Amy may have been taken and been objectified. Maybe even for money. It speaks of someone physically present, someone who spoke, persuaded, and acted, likely someone with confidence, experience, or even authority.If Amy had fallen overboard or taken her own life, the chart would show Neptune or the Moon as central players. It would suggest confusion, emotional overwhelm, or accidental misjudgment. Instead, we see strategy, coercion, and force. Saturn doesn’t spiral. Saturn executes.

Chart Ruler Jupiter in the 12th: A huge hidden enemy

Then there is Jupiter, the traditional ruler of Pisces and the ruling planet of this entire chart. If the Ascendant is the mask the moment wears, the chart ruler is the force moving beneath that mask. It governs the motive, the orchestrator, the one guiding events from within. In this case, that guide is Jupiter in Pisces, placed in the 12th house, one of the most hidden and psychologically complex regions of the chart.

The 12th house rules confinement, secrecy, hidden enemies, and places of exile. It is the domain of things removed from view, both physically and psychologically. When the planet ruling the entire chart is placed here, the chart itself becomes a map of disappearance. Jupiter doesn’t show up in the open. It acts from the shadows. This is not the astrology of randomness. It’s the signature of something, or someone, operating behind the curtain.

There is nothing subtle about this placement in the context of a missing person. Jupiter in the 12th house, especially as chart ruler, is a direct astrological signature of a hidden agent or enemy. Someone not only present in the story, but controlling it. This placement suggests Amy's disappearance was not spontaneous, not an accident, and not a personal crisis, but a moment orchestrated by someone she did not perceive as a threat.

Jupiter in Pisces can represent someone cloaked in kindness or authority. A person who appears trustworthy, even generous. In some forensic astrological interpretations, this can symbolize a man of significant size, status, or influence, someone who operates under the radar, perhaps as a helper, a guide, or a professional. In this case, it’s deeply plausible that Amy was approached by someone playing the role of a protector, someone who seemed to offer assistance, safety, or connection. But Jupiter in the 12th holds a devastating twist. The one who appears to be helping is actually leading you into the trap.

This placement powerfully supports the theory that Amy was lured away under false pretenses, through psychological manipulation. It reflects a moment of misdirected trust. A decision made in a fog of misplaced belief. The ruler of the chart hiding in the 12th means the danger was never obvious. It was designed to be unseen. And when it acted, it disappeared with her.

Pisces to Virgo: Trust vs. Truth

Jupiter is conjunct the South Node of Amy going missing. In traditional astrology, the South Node represents release, loss, karma, exile, detachment, and unraveling. It doesn’t build or grow, it dissolves. It often marks something that is being let go of or drawn backward into the past or the invisible.The person who caused her disappearance was likely not with her after she disappeared. They just tricked her. Then they faded leaving her spinning. That person was a liminal space, heading to her downfall.

Then there’s the North Node, which acts like the compass of the chart, pointing to what is being developed, exposed, or gained. In this disappearance, the North Node is in Virgo, placed in the 6th house. This is an extremely telling placement. Virgo governs precision, service, and systems. It notices the details others overlook. And the 6th house traditionally rules staff, laborers, routines, and the people who work behind the scenes. Together, they whisper: look at the crew.

This chart suggests that Amy’s disappearance was not random. It was not chaotic. The North Node here points toward something structured, something embedded within the ship’s operations. It hints at someone inside the system, maybe a crew member, an entertainer, or someone with access. This person used a predictable moment to orchestrate her removal. This placement supports the idea that her disappearance was not only premeditated, but carried out through familiarity and precision. Someone knew how to move quietly and avoid suspicion.

In classical astrology, the 6th house was also linked to servitude, labor, and in some cases, bondage or indentured roles. This is not the house of sudden endings. That would be the 8th or 12th. The 6th house is about maintaining function. So when the North Node lands here, it creates the unsettling suggestion that Amy may have been taken to fulfill a role, to be put to use. It introduces the possibility that she was absorbed into a system where she would continue, unseen, as part of a hidden structure.

The South Node in Pisces brings confusion, emotional overwhelm, and disappearance into fog. But the North Node in Virgo pushes toward clarity. It asks us to investigate. It pulls us toward careful analysis, not speculation. Virgo wants evidence. It calls for schedules, surveillance, routines, logs, staff rosters. It urges a forensic breakdown of the ordinary. This is not the chart of someone who got drunk and fell overboard. This is a map that points to something organized, concealed, and disturbingly methodical.

Aquarius Moon in the 11th: Trusting Someone Working on the Ship

The Moon represents the body, the instinct, and the emotional tone of any event. In Amy’s disappearance chart, the Moon is in Aquarius, placed in the 11th house. This immediately places her in a social context. Aquarius rules groups, friendships, and collective experiences, while the 11th house describes the environment of community and visibility. Amy had been out that morning, mingling with the cruise ship band, seen by multiple people. The Moon’s position here reflects that. She was among others. She was seen. But that visibility was not safety.

Aquarius, while social, also carries detachment. It can create a sense of being part of the group, yet slightly outside of it. With the Moon here, Amy may have felt like she belonged, but there was also the potential for disconnection. She was trusting someone who wasn’t truly aligned with her. The 11th house is wide and collective. You can disappear in a crowd just as easily as you can stand out in one. In the context of forensic astrology, this placement is giving a false sense of safety. She was surrounded, so she assumed she was protected. But not everyone in the group is what they seem.

Adding to this, the Moon was making two powerful applying sextiles. First, a sextile to Pluto in Sagittarius in the 10th house, linking her physical presence to a figure of power or authority. Pluto rules control, secrecy, and hidden influence. In the 10th, this could represent someone with rank, crew, security, or someone who had access and status on the ship. The sextile tells us this wasn’t an overt or violent confrontation. It was smooth. Something, or someone, pulled her in with ease.

Second, the Moon was sextile Mars in Aries in the 1st house. Mars in Aries is bold and physical. This shows action was taken. Mars acted on the Moon. Someone moved. Quickly. Directly. And because it’s a sextile, there may have been no obvious resistance. Amy may not have even perceived the threat until it was too late. The combination of these aspects paints a chilling picture: she was among others, feeling relatively at ease, when someone stepped in, confidently, skillfully, and without immediate detection.

Venus in the 12th House: Attractive and isolated

Venus in Aquarius in the 12th house strongly suggests that Amy was not only targeted but deliberately removed from view. Venus in Aquarius represents a woman who stands out for her uniqueness, particularly someone magnetic, independent, and deeply individual. In Amy’s case, her bold style, confidence, and visible tattoos likely made her memorable. She didn’t fade into the background. But when Venus is placed in the 12th house, this visibility becomes dangerous. What once attracted attention now becomes a factor in her disappearance.

The 12th house governs secrecy, confinement, and captivity. It’s traditionally associated with prisons, hidden enemies, and places where people are held against their will. When Venus, the planet symbolizing beauty, attraction, and the body, lands here, it often indicates a woman whose presence is concealed or controlled. It can describe being taken, held, or trafficked. In this context, the symbolism points to something literal, such as hidden captivity or trafficking. Venus in the 12th, especially in a disappearance chart, points toward abduction and hidden imprisonment. It suggests she was not simply lost. She was removed, and unfortunately taken and kept.

This placement also speaks to how it happened. Venus in the 12th is vulnerable to people who hide their intentions, who appear safe but act with secrecy. It implies Amy may have been approached or surveilled by someone who did not reveal their true motives. She may have been isolated quickly, without witnesses, and pulled into a situation where her autonomy was stripped away. There is a theme here of being used or possessed, of her beauty and individuality becoming reasons she was objectified and ultimately confined.

In this chart, Venus speaks of imprisonment, exploitation, and being cut off from help. The symbolism is consistent with human trafficking or unlawful captivity. Amy was not simply missing. The astrology suggests she was deliberately taken and hidden, held somewhere she could not leave, by someone who never intended to let her be found.

Lilith in Libra: The Enemy Who Seemed Safe

Black Moon Lilith in Libra in the 7th house suggests that Amy’s disappearance may have involved betrayal under the guise of connection. The 7th house is the realm of relationships and known others. It governs not strangers, but people who present themselves as allies, companions, or potential partners. When Lilith, the dark archetype of the repressed feminine, lands here, it points to the possibility of danger entering through someone who appeared trustworthy or familiar. This is not random violence from the shadows. This is betrayal with a face.

Lilith in Libra carries the shadow of false harmony, of danger hiding behind charm, civility, or romantic interest. Libra is a social sign, one that seeks balance and peace, but Lilith disturbs that surface. In this context, it suggests that Amy may have been approached by someone who used charisma, flattery, or even the appearance of interest or romance to draw her in. This is the placement of someone being lured, not chased. Coerced, not taken by force, at least not initially. Lilith here implies seduction used as a weapon, and trust used as an entry point.

There’s also a theme of being objectified or misread. Black Moon Lilith in this house often shows up strong in charts where the person is cast into a role, desired, envied, or feared, without being truly seen. Amy may have been perceived as something to possess or conquer, rather than as a full person. This kind of projection can be dangerous, especially if someone became obsessed or felt rejected. Lilith in the 7th suggests the presence of someone who saw her not through clarity, but through shadowed desire or distorted intention.

In disappearance cases, this placement has been associated with abduction through manipulation. It represents a person taken not by brute force alone, but through psychological leverage. It can point to trafficking, captivity, or being used for another’s agenda under the illusion of connection. Lilith in the 7th warns us to look closely at those who were close enough to seem safe. It suggests that the person responsible may have hidden behind a mask of charm, and that the danger came not from the outside, but from someone who got in close.

The Chart Speaks of Being Lured Into Danger

Taken as a whole, this chart does not speak of accident, confusion, or self-harm. There is no astrological evidence to support the idea that Amy fell from the ship, nor is there any indication of suicide. Venus in the 12th house, hidden and isolated, paired with Black Moon Lilith in the 7th, points instead to an external force. A person who approached Amy with charm, familiarity, or false intimacy, only to betray her trust. This was not a faceless danger. It was someone who got close enough to disarm her. Someone who convinced her to leave the safety of her environment under false pretenses.

The planetary symbolism suggests calculated manipulation. Amy was likely lured off the ship by someone she either knew or briefly trusted, someone who appeared harmless, even helpful. But this person was not an ally. They were a hidden enemy, operating from shadow. The 12th house placement of Venus shows us that she was deliberately removed from view, cut off from protection, and possibly trafficked or held against her will. The astrology here speaks of entrapment, not escape. Deception, not despair.

Amy did not vanish by choice. She was taken. And even though the circumstances of her disappearance remain unresolved, the world has not forgotten her. People still remember. People are still asking. The chart of her disappearance offers clarity. It points to the presence of someone who knows the truth. Someone who must be found. Amy’s story is not finished, and neither is the search for her.
