Michael Hastings RIP

Really sad loss. Last week reporter Michael Hastings was killed in a car crash while speeding on the streets of Hancock Park in Los Angeles. He is said to have been driving around 60 mph, drove through some red lights, and crashed into a tree. A car part, some say it was the engine, others say it was the transmission, was thrown from the Mercedes about 100 feet, although some say it was 50 feet and some say it was 150 feet. Michael Hastings died when his car blew up into flames. I'm attracted to the story because theres a conspiracy theory, gang stalky feel to it. Hastings wrote about Psyops operations in the army. He wrote a book which cost Blackops General Stanley McChrystal his job.  "They" really do these things, rewire your car in such a way that it will blow up. Poor people do it between 1:00am and 3:00 am. And the police do it around 4:00 am to 5:00 am. Or they do it any other time of day as well. Car Mechanics do it when you bring your car into the mechanic for an oil change also. This Psyops stuff really sucks although the Feds seem to like it.  No accountability, no checks and balances. The NSA is so busy spying on everyone's computer activities that they completely forget that people are out there still doing the same old crappy crime stuff. When I look at the astrology for Michael Hastings I find something else altogether. I'm not going to say what because the NSA reads everything You and I write. No. I won't. So here's some birth and crash data. If you compare these chartyou see some pretty amazing stuff. Look at that unaspected Sun-Mercury in Aquarius. Truth seeker. Natal Mars Rx in Virgo opposing Venus 16 Pisces. Only opposition in the chart. I was stunned to see that Hastings' lost a fiance to a car bomb in 2007 and that his death occurred so close to her Solar Return. Rest in Peace Michael Hastings. I send my condolences to all who have lost such a noble soul. Michael Hastings b. Jan. 28, 1980 Burlington, VT Sun 8 Aquarius; Moon Gemini or Cancer; NN 30 Leo Michael Hasting Death, Car Crash June 18, 2013, 4:20 am?, Los Angeles, CA Sun 28 Gemini (H1); Moon 19 Libra (H5); ASC 6 Gemini; MC 17 Aquarius; NN 15 Scorpio (H6) 1st House was ruled by Gemini (communications, reporting, cars) and contained Mars, Sun-Jupiter in Gemini Hastings was 33 years old when he died. This completes a Solar Return Cycle in which the Sun returns to the house of the natal chart. In his case it was a Full Moon. Either way, it's probably good to look at this chart as well but without a birth time it wont be exactly accurate, of course. 33d Solar Return, Michael Hastings Jan. 27, 2013 Where? Sun 8 Aquarius; Moon Leo; NN 23 Scorpio Rx; Jupiter 7 Gemini Rx Michael Hastings was currently married. However he had lost a fiance in 2007 (Saturn opposite Neptune) who was murdered by a car bomb in Iraq. Hastings Progressed Mercury went Retrograde the next year. If you look at videos of Hastings talking around the time that his fiance was killed and compare them with those of recent videos of him you can see how Mercury can affect a person's speech and communications. He gets a little tongue trippy. It is said that Hastings had stopped drugs and alcohol but is thought that these could have played a part in his bad driving on the night of the accident. Jupiter, Neptune, Sun, SAturn and the Scorpio North Node were doing a wide grand trine thing on the morning he died so he could have been partying or ..... On the other hand, if you pay attention to what the guy was investigating and reporting you can also see how Mercury Rx works when forced to look deeply into subject matter. And compare the crash chart with his fiance's birth and death charts. I found somewhere on the internet a time for the car bomb death which is probably not accurate because it happens to have the same Ascendant as the car crash chart. Hastings' fiance's name was Andrea (Andi) Parhamovich. Andi Parhamovich b. June 16, 1978 Sun 26 Gemini; Moon Libra or Scorpio; NN 2 Libra Andi Parhamovich Murder By Car Bomb Jan. 17, 2007; Baghdad, Iraq time might possibly be 1:29 pm Sun 27 Capricorn; Moon 5 Capricorn (conjunct Pluto and Mars and H8 cusp, both Moon and Mars were out of bounds!); ASC 5 Gemini; MC 16 Aquarius; NN 19 Pisces The conspiracy theory stuff would have been there no matter what considering what Hastings was reporting. Amplifying that paranoia is the fact that Hastings emailed some friends telling them that the "Feds" were questioning his friends. The FBI has announced that they were not investigating Hastings. But, what does "Feds" mean. Anybody with a fake badge can call up your buddies and tell them that they need a couple of questions answered. Chart of a reporter who tells his friends that the Feds are calling around asking about him. Sent Feb. 17, 2013 at 1:00 pm Los Angeles, CA Sun 27 Gemini c. Jupiter-MC-Mars from H9; Moon 11 Libra; ASC 29 Virgo; MC 29 Gemini; NN 15 Scorpio (H2); Chart Ruler Mercury 20 Cancer conjunct Venus in H10 I can't figure this one out. You try. Hey Dude, where's my page breaks?

You Are So Googled

Look at this great blog, Astrologic.us which I just found while looking for something else. In this post, S.A. Hopkins googles the 12 Astrological signs to find out what traits people ask about most.  Looks like hurt people use astrology to understand why other people are so mean.

Give Me Patrick Henry. Or, Give Me Edward Snowden

Don't know why, but I keep picking up Patrick Henry energy whenever I see Edward Snowden's picture in the news. Don't know why. Well, I knew that both are Gemini's. That's a start, at any rate. I guess I really like that phrase "Give Me Liberty or Give Me Death."

  Here's the full speech.

 Am pretty amazed by the chart comparisons. These two men share so many similarities in their birth charts.


  Patrick Henry b. May 29, 1736 6:39 pm Hanover, VA Sun 9 Gemini; Moon 11 Aquarius; ASC 3 Sagittarius; NN 4 Libra; MC 17 Virgo 

Edward Snowden b. June 21, 1983 Elizabeth, North Carolina, No Time Sun 30 Gemini; Moon Scorpio; NN 25 Gemini 

When I'm looking for guys who are ape face about Human Liberties and Freedoms and the politics of their countries I'm going to gravitate towards the energies of Jupiter and Uranus. But it looks like Pluto and Neptune also have something to do with a revolutionary bent. And maybe also a stellium in Gemini because both these guys have that.

 This is pretty amazing. Both men have stellia in Gemini around their Gemini Suns. So, communication is central to their personal expression. They will be a sort of jack of all trades. I don't think I could win a game of poker with either one. Henry had Saturn 3 Gemini, Sun 9 Gemini, Mercury 20 Gemini, Neptune 26 Gemini. Snowden has Chiron 1 Gemini, Mercury 11 Gemini, NN 25 Gemini Rx, Mars 25 Gemini, Sun 30 Gemini. Being on the last degree of Gemini puts Snowden's Sun within range of the Aries Point at Cancer which brings him before the public in some way. Cancer is connected with patriotism. His progressed Sun has spent his entire life so far passing through this sign and is about to move into Leo. Pluto is the planet of extremism and it's in the sign of Libra which rules Scales of Justice, Harmony, seeking balance, diplomacy. Henry's extreme statement of give me Liberty or give me Death certainly fits the combination of Pluto and Libra working together. Pluto is also the planet of espionage, with Neptune. Edward Snowden has made his statement about not wanting to live in a country where the extreme level of spying goes on in the NSA where he worked. He has said that he doesn't want to live in a country where this goes on. Snowden's Scorpio Moon and Saturn-Pluto conjunction show his wisdom in this regard and strength to stand alone to speak out. Like Bradley Manning Snowden is whistle-blowing. Manning is a Sagittarius, by the way. Should look up his chart. He is currently in trial for downloading secret documents. Patrick Henry was a lawyer. So, don't worry, Jupiterians and Uranians. These guys can't do this stuff without you. Both men have Jupiter and Uranus in strong aspect with each other. Both have Uranus in Sagittarius which is Jupiter's sign. And their Uranus' are in strong contact with Jupiter. Henry had a mutual reception between the two planets. And Snowden has a conjunction of them in Sagittarius. Snowden also has Neptune in Sagittarius at 28 degrees. This opposes Henry's Neptune which is at 26 Gemini and opposes Henry's Uranus in Sagittarius. Without a birth time I can't say, but there is a chance that Snowden's progressed Moon is currently in Sagittarius somewhere in contact with one of these planets. That's good because he is currently trying to "relocate" overseas to try to not be arrested by the U.S. Government. These are slow moving planets which express a generation of people. In this case, revolutionaries who speak out (GEmini) and rebel (Uranus) when things are quite right. The personal planets in their charts will show how they will do this as individuals. Snowden has Mars in Gemini opposing Neptune set over his North node. He was able to gain employment with the NSA based on his talent for spying probably more than on his education. Perhaps the NSA thought he would be more vulnerable to not rebel by not having an Ivy League education. Other similarities between these charts. Both men have Moon in Fixed Signs (Stubbornness, Stability). North Nodes are in Air Signs (Intellect). Both men have planets arranged in Locomotive chart shapes. I don't know what that means. Bob Marks has written great descriptions on his website. Pluto leads in Henry's chart. Mercury leads in Snowden's chart.

Poem by Billy Collins

Check out a poem about grieving called "Horoscopes for the Dead" by Billy Collins. It's available online but too difficult to link to.
