[Soft Alpaca]

She dies 7 years to the day that her costar Monteith did. July 13th. If i had to guess this might be something significant to look into.

The first impression, of course - since they were close - was that was a suicide. But the authorities say no, and how she left her son suggests to me that it was not.

According to her birth certificate, she was born January 12, 1987, at 1:56 PM PST in Santa Monica, CA. Venus in mere minutes from Descendant, with Saturn and Pluto hovering several degrees either side of the same angle. She was a double Spoke - a Sagittarius-Gemini.

he died July 8, 2020, about 3 PM in Lake Piru, which is at 4N28'39", 118W45'18". For the convenience of astrology programs, the closest town is probably Castaic Junction, CA.

I'm fairly sure, as sure as anyone could be who wasn't on that water that afternoon, that she and her son were swimming and got caught in the currents, which include whirlpools. Her son was wearing a life jacket which helped them both stay above the surface and she got him onto the boat. His statement said he got up and turned around and she was already gone.
That lake is notorious for having dangerous currents, which are very like rip currents in the ocean the locals know about, but there are no warnings for tourists. There may be now.

I posted the timing in the July Events thread.

Transits are quite strange. She has a partile (08') natal Sun-Mercury conjunction which Pluto had passed but transiting Jupiter was exactly conjunct. This is not an aspect of misfortune in any sense.

Speaking of water, transiting Neptune was within a degree of conjunct natal Jupiter. The first really disruptive aspect is transiting Uranus opposite natal Pluto 0°02' and partile octile natal Uranus.

But there is one mark of pure terror: Transiting Mars squared natal Neptune 0°12. Transiting Mercury tied into it for the accident.

There is a strange Mercury thread running through some of the charts, the most pronounced of which is a progressed Moon-Mercury opposition to the minute of arc.


I don't know where she was on her birthday, but for the location of her last breath SSR Descendant was a few minutes from Uranus. (There were surprises, to say the least.) She did have a really rough SSR year, though, with Sun, Saturn, and Pluto squeezed within 0°14' of each conjunction - not foreground but impossible to ignore.

Her June 20 SLR had, again, the Mercury influence - it was closely setting - and also had a partile Jupiter-Pluto conjunction on EP. I'd call this a complete failure except Saturn was partile square Midheaven. It's a mixed chart and suggests that there is a lot we don't know yet. b(The Demi-SLR was a nearly identical chart, except without the Saturn )


For the day, her SNQ had Neptune on IC square progressed Saturn, a mark of tragedy:

24°53' Aqu - r Jupiter
25°03' Sco - p Saturn
25°20' Leo - p MC
25°52' Aqu - t Neptune

The SQ angles are more boring - SQ MC squared SSR Uranus. Mean PSSR Asc opposed natal Neptune with its MC on SSR Neptune. (And, getting in another dig at the end, transiting Mercury was on PSSR Asc.) The apparent solar rate PSSR was fine enough with MC conjunct SSR Neptune, but its horizon had left solar Neptune - so the mean rate was better.

She got her last wish. She got her son safely back on the boat.
