JUPITER AND PEACHES GELDOF

Life has not been easy in the eyes of Peaches Geldof, lately. She has Saturn conjunct Neptune in the 13th degree of Capricorn and both quintile the natal Sun. About 2-3 years ago there was a square between Sun and Saturn-Neptune. That is maybe when the problems started. With her Sun in Pisces and Moon in Cancer and with 50% of her placements in water signs she hardly can resist the party scene and she will easily give in to bad habits. Her Saturn-Neptune-connection is BTW square her father's Sun (conjunct Saturn/Neptune) and Uranus.

JUPITER for help?
Peaches Geldof's friend saved her life when she almost died due to an overdose, yesterday. That was with Jupiter square progressed Sun, Mercury and Venus and inconjunct progressed Mars. Her progressed Sun is getting closer to a semi square with Jupiter. Sometimes when there is intervention to be grateful for, coming from an advisor, a friend, a doctor or the law, Jupiter is there. And Peaches has reasons to be grateful.

BTW With her progressed Sun conjunct progressed Venus it is not surprising that she had a debut modeling.

INGRID BETANCOURT AND THE CRUCIAL SPIRITUALITY

Ingrid Betancourt has stated that her spirituality saved her during the years with the FARC. And she will be received by the pope next Friday.

Look at her chart and you will immediately see Jupiter and Neptune on the cross of the chart (Jupiter on MC, Neptune on DESC). The combination of Jupiter and Neptune is the combination of a.o. spiritual (Neptune) conviction (Jupiter) and frequent in the charts of popes and monks. The square between Jupiter and Neptune shows us that her faith has been tested...There is another clue: Venus, ruler 1, is exactly conjunct the mdipoint of Jupiter and Neptune.

Jupiter-Neptune is prominent in the charts of people who benefit from beliefs, fantasy and idealism. That is why the combination is also there in the charts of moviestars, for example. In the chart of Tom Cruise there are many combinations of Jupiter and Neptune, as you may notice.

It is interesting that in this chart of Betancourt, Jupiter and Neptune are 'crucial', so that they indeed were 'crucial' in her survival.

RELEVANT:
1. Message about liberation
2. Chart reading dated November 30, 2007 when she was in bad condition. Now we know that she should not have been alive if not a corporal of the Columbian army (also a prisoner) took care of her.

BTW
Now her progressed Midheaven is semi square Jupiter and Jupiter rules the 8th house of life and death, crisis in life and problems and changes. This time a pleasant change...

ASTROLOGY CHART OF BILL GATES and the present changes in his life

Bill Gates left Microsoft (well, he left the management, he still has the stocks). It must be quite a change in his life, because it IS in his chart.

First of all, the progressed (secondary) Sun is now in the 29th degree of Sagittarius, about to change sign. The two to three years before and after the change of the sun sign is a transformationale period.

Second, transit Uranus has crossed his Midheaven. The MC is pointing at the planet of changes...

And 3: transit Pluto is sesquisquare the progressed MC for a transtormation with frustrations.

There is even a number 4: The progressed Sun (sextile Neptune and) trine Pluto and progressed Pluto for giving up and make an easy and swift change in lifestyle.

Notice that the progressed Pluto is returning to the position of birth.

Of course there is even more to see in his chart, but I like to stop here. Uranus-Pluto is the combination of a revolution, the Sun is pointing at another way of living and the Pluto trine is just about enough.

BIRTH CHART EDWARD KENNEDY who has been rushed to hospital today

Edward Kennedy has been transported to hospital quickly today with transit Saturn opposition Sun and sesquisquare Uranus *)(tightly) and a tight semisquare of Pluto and Neptune in the progressed chart, where Pluto is close to the IC. I hope for him that there will be no brain damage that causes a sort of an 'imprisonment' in the mind.

Edward Kennedy was born 22nd of February 1932 at 3h58 a.m. EST in Dorchester MA, USA. Mars is oriental in his chart, Jupiter is sesquisquare Aries Point, Saturn does not make major aspects in sign (so Saturn for government is 'calling'!) and Uranus is end dispositor of the MC.

Edward Kennedy never could reach the top because of the Chappaquiddick-incident. He got a probational punishment for leaving the scene of an accident (and Mary Jo Kopechne), maybe because he drank too much. That was on July 19, 1969, with Mars square Sun and sesquisquare Uranus, Uranus semisquare Jupiter and Neptune semi square Ascenant. Also transit Chiron was inconjunct his natal MC, transit Ceres was square that MC. The progressed Moon was close to Saturn. With Mars, Jupiter and Saturn prominent you can easily see the rise (Jupiter) and fall (Saturn). The MC is conjunct the midpoint Jupiter/Saturn.

In his natal chart you can see the desillusion. Notice Sun opposition Neptune and {Neptune conjunct Moon} sextile MC. The tightest aspect is Moon conjunct Neptune (not benificiary for staying married and probably pointing at addiction).

POST SCRIPTUM REPORT:
No damage, it seems Edward Kennedy had a small heart attack. And that shows that Saturn and Pluto transits and progressions do not necessarily harm or kill, unless ruler 8 and the eight house are involved. Of course it depends on being a VIP, too, the country you live in etcetera. Could we read this as a blockade (Saturn and Uranus) of the bloodcirculation (Sun)? But, with Saturn opposition Sun and the Midheaven close to an opposition with Pluto Edward Kennedy should be very careful.

*) 13/14 October 2007 Edward Kennedy had transit Saturn inconjunct Uranus (now sesquisquare). In October 2007 he had surgery to end a blockade...

POST POST SCRIPTUM:
Today, May 20, 2008 with progressed Pluto at 20d12m46s Cancer tightly semi square Neptune at 5d12m46s Virgo in the eight equal house, the doctors said that Edward Kennedy suffers from malignant brain tumor.

ANOTHER PS dated May 22, 2008
I suddenly remember that my father had Progressed Saturn inconjunct Uranus in the year that he suffered from several heart attacks that finally (of course with other progressions and transits, too) ended his life.
