Uranus In Aries: Jetpacks Will Be Huge + The Virgoan Daredevil

I reckon Uranus in Aries – from the middle of 2010! – is going to render jet pack tres trendy. People will be fanging about all the place.

I LOVE Yves Rossy – his nickname is “fusionman” – the dude who has just failed to fly from North Africa to Europe…He’s a multiple conjunct Virgo and has just turned 50….

He’s got the tight Sun-Pluto conjunction just like Lance Armstrong. These peeps run off some primordial, no, CHTHONIC energy source. Rossy has Sun-Pluto-Venus-Mars in Virgo and Mercury conjunct Uranus in Leo…Saturn in Capricorn trines his Virgo stuff.  So right now he’s got Mars all over his Uranus (he’s gonna break even more records) and Pluto on his Saturn. So what few inhibitions or fears he HAD are being helpfully pulverised by Pluto.

The full  article is here…but here is a bit…oh and a Virgo is a VIRGO – he insists on making his own jetpacks and wings from scratch as he does not trust anyone else to get it right.

“Shaken violently by the turbulence, Rossy dropped to try to regain control, but suddenly lost his bearings inside large grey clouds.

“My only instruments are my feelings and sight and without them I am lost,” he said.

“No more fun”

Rocketing seawards at 300km/h, Rossy realised “it was no more fun”, ditched his wing and pulled his parachute 850m above the sea.

“I’ve had many situations like that in the free air but not in clouds. Ninety per cent of the time I can regain control, but in those clouds it was over,” he added.

As his team and camera crews peered into the gloom anxiously, a rescue party of three helicopters, two planes and ships from the Spanish coastguard struggled for ten minutes to locate Rossy.

A homing beacon on his Breitling watch and bright parachute helped indicate his precise location in the chilly waters.

He was then taken to a hospital in nearby Jerez de La Frontera for a precautionary check-up but returned to Atlanterra unhurt and in “good spirits”"

Astro-Asterix and Obelix

Good old indomitable Pagan Gauls Asterix, Obelix and their batty druid Getafix & guess what? Asterix and Obelix have an official birthday – given them by their creators Rene Goscinny & Albert Uderzo. It is October 29 1959…

This means the boys are multiple conjunct Scorps!  Sun, Mercury, Mars, Neptune and the South Node all together in Scorpio.  Their Venus in Virgo squares Jupiter in Saggo & the Jupiter trines Uranus in Leo. Sooo very fussy re women and the urge to wander (Jupiter in Saggo) conflicts with a possibly already fairly weak urge to mate.  Saturn in Capricorn represents a grounding/mentoring senex character in their life (The Druid and his magic potion) which they would need, as Mars-Neptune-Sun etc in Scorp would love a punch-up and to be eternally free.

When Saturn Was Last At This Point In Virgo…

Why even THINK about when Saturn was last at this point in Virgo?

Because Saturn is all about Time…His Greek name is Chronos from whence we get all manner of time-linked words…Chronological. Chronometer, which is the correct name for a watch…Probably even Crone. So every now and then, it is good to check in to Saturnine cycles – they are like those of Uranus; Seven years…Seven, fourteen, 28…

IF you are old enough, the last time Saturn was at mid-Virgo was August 1979…Thinking about another time, but similar in the Saturnine sense, can trigger fantastic insights….

Gia Carangi was on the cover of Cosmopolitan…

p9x8f4p_large1

Born in late January 1960, she was an Aquarian supermodel & an openly lesbian one at that – in the 70’s, it was harder – & ultra-charismatic, even by the standards of mods and doomed icons. Some fashion peeps say she innovated modelling by kinetic style of posing et al. That sort of thing is so arguable. Sadly, she was hooked on heroin by the 80s and dead of AIDS at the age of 26, in the late 80s. Her fave song – this is so 80s – Don’t You Forget About Me by Simple Minds was played at her funeral, Angelina Jolie won a Golden Globe for playing her in Gia & it took Cindy Crawford years to shrug off the moniker of “baby Gia.”

Gia astro; Sun, Moon & Mercury in Aquarius, Venus, Mars and Saturn all in Capricorn, Uranus in Leo trine Jupiter in Saggo – charisma to burn and she basically did burn it all up. Neptune in Scorp squared all the Aqua stuff & such a sad “lower” Neptunian end (drugs) to all the beauty and glam. The emo pf the fan-sites, net culture & v-clips of her etc is extraordinary. She is SO the Gen X version of Marilyn. Not in the sense of actress/lifetime accomplishments etc but in the love-for-doomed-young-icon-of-generation sense. It’s just that Gia was not of the Boomer (Pluto in Leo) generation…They really laud their icons. So if you went to a kitsch shop, you’d imagine Elvis Presley, Marilyn and James Dean actually were the last lot of passed slebs we ever cared for.

ANYWAY – a Saturnine psych query if you are up for it…and if u are old enuf – what did you Leave Behind or Cherish in 1979 that you could now reclaim? As Saturn is sitting on this point for the next few months before opposing iconoclastic Uranus, this will be a productive thought session, if  you can manage it. And even if you born post-1979, think re where your family/industry was at then…pre-You! The good thing about pondering Saturn shite? It works. She is also such a beautiful and poignant reminder of people who pass far too soon through something so presumably avoidable as damage from drugs.

George & Fatima Up A Tree?

Have just been reading this fantastic Telegraph article re the possible romance between George Clooney & Fatima Bhutto.

“…Fresh from an ill-fated entanglement with a Las Vegas cocktail waitress, George Clooney, Hollywood’s Armani-suited Renaissance Man-on-call, is reported to have fallen for 26-year-old Fatima Bhutto, the new star of Pakistan’s greatest political dynasty. Across the sub-continent the excitement spread like Valentine’s Weekend wildfire. And why not? George is radical, Fatima is chic. It has to work out this time….”

Oddly enough, having adored Clooney in a number of movies (Intolerable Cruelty, Oceans 11, Three Kings & even One Fine Day) I actually got a bit sick of the sight of him last year. Prob just over-exposure, a bit like every mag having Kate Hudson on the cover at the moment and more or less the same article re her fabulosity.  But GC is incredible & apart from her being gorgeous & about 20 years younger than him, Ms Bhutto – the neice of Benazir – would seem to be a really interesting choice of would-be girlfriend for him. She, apparently, is not so keen because of the age gap & her fairly intense concerns in Pakistan.

And, looking at the astro between them, i wondered if she had an astrologer run the charts & then flipped. I mean really. With no time of birth for her (May 29 1982) it’s hard to be definitive about this but still…A few highlights. Or maybe lowlights.

George Clooney is a Taurus (Sun conjunct Mercury) with Pisces Rising and Moon-Saturn in Capricorn. That Moon-Saturn is a very sombre position & despite his debonair aura, that denotes a person who is very careful/conservative with giving his heart & most likely with good reason. Early hurt etc etc.Ms Bhutto is an early Gemini with Moon in Leo & we don’t know the rising due to no time. Her Venus in Aries squares (challenging) his sensitive Moon-Saturn in Capricorn combo. Her Pluto in Libra squares that Moon-Saturn in Capricorn combo. Both have Venus in Aries but not conjunct.

So that’s like a kind of similarity. But then her Saturn in Libra opposes his Venus. Her Jupiter squares his Jupiter. Her Sun squares his Chiron. Oh – a nice one – her Sun in Gemini trines his Jupiter in Aquarius. Her Uranus squares his Pisces Ascendent. Her Sun squares his Pisces Ascendent. This is a LOT of squares – ie; challenges -  & that is just from a cursory glance.

Some squares between charts are good. They are all about growth. And you certainly know when the other person’s in the room. But too many makes for just old-fashioned they-get-on-your-nerves-ishness. Of course, if they did manage to overcome some of the obstacles between them, doesn’t this mean George Clooney could one day be first “lady” of Pakistan? Or first man? And would it help or hinder U.S-Pakistani relations?

Oh and note that Saturn has just entered George Clooney’s 7th house for the first time in 29 years. So he is suddenly incapable of casual relationships. It would have to either be a significant partnership (apparently with some geopolitical impact as well, as he is such an  O.T.T. show-off with his cute little Mars at Zero degrees of Leo) or nothing-at-all. She is his Saturn-in-the-7th house manifestation. And maybe the Saturnine lesson would be a woman he cannot have…I am not generally judgemental re age gaps but i do think it is easier if both parties are either pre or post Saturn Return. It makes SUCH a difference.

Then again, she is having her Saturn Return in 2011 & with Saturn opposing her natal Venus shortly thereafter, reflecting a challenging & intense relationship most likely with an older person.
