Bill Richardson RIP
Posted: Mon Sep 04, 2023 1:06 pm
November 15, 1947, 11:35 AM PST, Pasadena, CA (AA)
Bill Richardson died in his sleep September 1 at his summer home in Chatham, MA. He served seven terms in Congress, replaced Madeleine Albright as U.N. ambassador when she became Secretary of State, and a year later became Secretary of Energy. He then served two terms of New Mexico's governor, being enormously popular (and reelected by a record-breaking margin). At the time he was the only Hispanic governor in the U.S. (though he also was descended from a Mayflower passenger).
After that, though, he turned to perhaps his greatest life's work, as an informal (and sometimes formal) ambassador negotiating (often successfully) the release of American's held captive by terrorist and totalitarian governments.
The guy was awesome. He impressed me left and right. I feel I knew him though we never met. (We had a day-to-day friend in common. (I still have his address and phone number in my phone contacts from when he was Senior Managing Director of Kissinger-McLarty at 1775 Pennsylvania Avenue. I suppose I should delete that now.) But I followed him a lot, somewhat keeping track of his efforts.
As a world-class diplomat, he had Sun in Libra and Moon in Sagittarius - perfect! His chart is super interesting if you want to dig into it, with Sun exactly at MC partile square an exact Mars-Saturn conjunction, Moon on the Galactic Center closely opposite Uranus, Mercury on Zenith, and more.
