ladylastro:

I mentioned last week there were two big energies this month in the Benophie fan chart. Last one was Wednesday when Benedict was seen at Covent Gardens. Many people saw him, despite being “incognito” (not sure how well khaki camo jackets really “blend in” in the middle of London), and even garnered a single Instagram sighting, thus proving he really had been there at some point.

But for what purpose?

Unfortunately, there really weren’t any clues other than what I found in the charts. It was all about communicating to an audience (the fans) about expanding something in Benedict’s career, and possibly something painful in regards to partnerships. A wild guess was to see a solicitor, but that particular part of town really didn’t lend itself to anyone guessing such a thing, really.

Coming up on the 25th doesn’t look quite as vague. On that day, the Benophie fan chart has this:

10/25/2017 SA Saturn 19 Virgo 51 H7 Trine Mars/Node 19 Capricorn 51 H12
10/25/2017 SA Saturn 19 Virgo 51 H7 Novile Moon/Node 09 Leo 51 H7

SA Saturn in the fan chart indicates responsibilities and details in partnerships. The first aspect indicates avoiding confrontation, driven to retreat or withdrawal. It can also indicate perfectionism, being cautious, patriotic or having strong ties to familiar groups, and facing judgment with fortitude.

The second aspect indicates a constriction of strong emotions, the importance of partnerships, and feeling lied to or betrayed.

SA Saturn is almost perfectly conjunct the asteroid Bennu.

Benedict’s chart has all this for the 26th (which may be off by a day due to the switch in time keeping around this time of year):

10/26/2017 SA Pluto 18 Scorpio 47 H2 Quinqueundecile Moon/PoF 05 Gemini 09 H8
10/26/2017 SA Pluto 18 Scorpio 47 H2 Quincunx Jupiter/Midheaven 18 Gemini 47 H9
10/26/2017 SA Saturn 14 Virgo 51 H11 Septile Venus/PoF 23 Cancer 25 H10
10/26/2017 SA Jupiter 05 Cancer 04 H9 Septile Jupiter/Chiron 13 Taurus 38 H8

Power and control over plans is rebellious with emotions or intuition about others, and using communication as a path to success. It also inconveniences being adventurous, desiring knowledge, travelling, planning or doing many things, and using knowledge as power. Nothing I have in his asteroid database is tightly conjunct or opposing to SA Pluto.

Responsibility of balancing his life has intuition about making a good impression, loving theatre or beautiful things, living life as one envisions it, and having childlike wonder or creation of new things. SA Saturn is almost perfectly conjunct the Uranian Zeus, which indicates taking on leadership responsibilities.

And finally, his enlargement of family has intuition for passion and purpose in life, feeling comfortable with power and control, gaining wealth through a partnership, but having problems with feeling fulfilled, a passing of something that was important, and problems of possessions, wealth or self-worth. SA Jupiter is almost perfectly conjunct the asteroid Pan which represents raw sexuality.

For the 25th, Sophie has this:

10/25/2017 SA Ascendant 09 Virgo 02 H3 Quintile Jupiter 27 Gemini 02 27 H12

Her appearance has talent for having faith that things will work out, letting go of bad habits, exploring things in private, desiring knowledge, travelling, and conversing with others. Her SA Ascendant is almost perfectly conjunct the asteroid Prey.

To get more details, let’s take a look at the transiting objects. I’ll use the asteroids that are active with the Solar Arcs to see what they yield.

Let’s start with the aspect for Sophie where SA Ascendant is perfectly conjunct the asteroid Prey in her natal chart.

For the transiting asteroid Prey, here are a few other asteroids making aspects with it on the 25th:

Venus 13° Libra 9’10"
Lie 13° Libra 24’22"
Echo 13° Libra 35’55"
Disneya 14° Libra 35’27"
Nanna 12° Scorpio 49’20"
Armor 14° Scorpio 51’47"
Icarus 12° Sagittarius 20’56"
Babel’ 12° Sagittarius 57’28"
Courant 13° Sagittarius 27’9"
Dorothea 13° Aquarius 16’16"
Prey 14° Aquarius 34’54"

Conjunct with Prey is Dorothea. Some time back, @minervarosewilliams and I used some common fairy tales and folk stories to compare the showmance to, including the story of the Wizard of Oz. We discovered that the character of Dorothy was the projection of Sophie’s “good girl” character to the public. She is sweet, innocent, normally conservative in dress, and always helpful to her new-found friends. Prey is usually someone who is being taken advantage of. Somehow they are blending together, although that doesn’t guarantee harmony as conjunctions are neutral.

Another strong influence around Prey is anything in Libra as this is 120 degrees away, making the angle between them a trine, or a “works easily” energy. This includes Venus, Lie, Echo and Disneya. Thus charm, lies, being unable to speak, and Disney work easily with whomever is the prey and good girl.

The more difficult energy would be in Scorpio, which makes a 90 degree square angle to Prey in Aquarius. As Nanna is actually 2 degrees away from making the 90 degree with Prey (only use up to 1.5 degrees from a perfect degree for their influence), Nanna may not have as much influence on Prey as it does on Dorothea. That means the good girl and the nannies are in conflict with one another, but the nannies aren’t in conflict with the prey. Armor, indicating protection, is in conflict with both the good girl and the prey. Maybe they aren’t being protected as well as they should be?

Finally, there is an opportunity between the items in Sagittarius to those in Aquarius, in a 60 degree sextile. Again, Icarus and Babel are too far from Prey. These indicate getting too close to something dangerous and incoherent chatter. These things have an opportunity with the good girl, but not prey. Both Prey and Dorothea have an opportunity with Courant, indicating newspapers. Looks like the good girl and the prey may feature in print soon!

What does this mean? It could be a clash between the good girl and someone who has been preyed upon. Nannies seem to be in conflict with the good girl who may have flown too close to the sun and will be gossiped about.

Now let’s look at Pan (activated by Benedict’s SA Jupiter) for the 25th:

Steviewonder 23° Taurus 9’0" Rx
Chaos 23° Gemini 42’12" Rx
Pan 24° Gemini 58’27" Rx
Ohno 23° Cancer 29’9"
d’Arrest 24° Virgo 38’27"
Bora-Bora 22° Scorpio 2’0"
Monroe 23° Scorpio 31’11"
Hazard 24° Scorpio 57’25"
Saturn 23° Sagittarius 58’44"
Babette 25° Sagittarius 58’25"
Christophe 22° Aquarius 27’11"
Chiron 25° Pisces 4’5" Rx

Conjunct with Pan is Chaos! Raw sexuality and chaos doesn’t sound good together. Not only that, but Gemini makes a trine with Aquarius. Guess who’s there? Little baby Chris! But Christophe is slightly too far away from Pan to make a proper trine, so only Chris and chaos work easily together!

Difficulties in squares come from both Virgo and Pisces in this list. That means there is a conflict with an arrest and pain since d’Arrest and Chiron are there. This time Chaos is too far away from Chiron to have an influence. So someone or something which embodies raw sexuality conflicts with an arrest or being arrested, and may conflict with feeling or inflicting pain. Chaos only conflicts with the arrest.

I wonder who could be getting arrested? Weinstein is being investigated right now by many different law enforcement agencies in more than one country for multiple allegations of harassment and sexual misconduct. It’s already been explicitly noted that Weinstein wouldn’t hesitate to take down other people in the industry if he goes down.

Opposing are Saturn and Babette. Chaos is again too wide for the baby, but raw sexuality struggles with both responsibilities and a baby!

The rest are only minor aspects. Taurus and Cancer only have a small opportunity, so a blind item and an “Oh no!” would have a small opportunity with raw sexuality and chaos. The items in Scorpio would be inconvenient for Pan and Chaos. In this case, Pan isn’t affected by Bora-Bora. Both are inconvenienced by Monroe (scandal) and Hazard (something hazardous).

Finally, let’s check out Bennu which is activated by the Benophie fan chart.

Uranus 26° Aries 18’30" Rx
Child 26° Aries 57’5"
Stanley 27° Taurus 42’59" Rx
Buysballot 26° Cancer 12’38"
Bennu 27° Leo 47’0"
Veritas 28° Leo 36’10"
Zero 28° Leo 15’11"
Labs 28° Leo 12’23"
Harvey 28° Leo 12’58"
Fermilab 29° Leo 21’37"
Truth 27° Virgo 22’39"
Rhadamanthus 28° Libra 20’24"
Moon 29° Sagittarius 54’2"

Woah! Bennu is conjunct a LOT of interesting asteroids, isn’t it? I mean, we have Veritas (truth), Zero (Sophie’s nickname), Labs, Harvey, and Fermilab (too far from Bennu, but there’s already another lab that interacts with him). We have two different lab named asteroids together with Benedict the truth, Sophie and Harvey? This should get interesting!

More interestingly, Uranus and Child in Aries trine with Bennu in Leo. An unexpected child working easily with Benedict? As Veritas is conjunct with Bennu, I should hope this DOESN’T mean we will have yet another fake pregnancy!

Also making a trine with everything but Bennu in Leo is the Moon. The Moon represents emotions. Something with the truth, a lab, Sophie and Harvey works easily with emotions.

The one thing that is square with almost all of this is Stanley. You know…Stan Lee or Marvel. That means Marvel struggles with whatever the heck is going on with Benedict, Sophie, Harvey, a lab, and the truth.

All of this also has an opportunity with Rhadamanthus. This was the name of a Greek judge, and thus represents judgment or justice. Therefore Benedict, the truth, Zero, both labs, and Harvey have an opportunity with justice in some way. Well, somebody may be getting arrested, so there’s that.

The rest is minor. The energy in Cancer and Virgo are a small opportunity (the sham via Buysballot and truth again).

All of this points to the ongoing breakdown in the Hollywood industry that may be headed for a big implosion, maybe on Wednesday. In fact, the asteroids and transits for the 25th appear to say just that:

Moon 29° Sagittarius 54’2"
Agamemnon 0° Capricorn 38’35"
Industria 0° Capricorn 39’17"
Fanatica 0° Capricorn 49’17"
Achilles 1° Capricorn 57’45"

On the 25th, the “industry” may be self-destroying through some kind of fanaticism and its greatest weakness. This could be very emotional.

We have a possibility of an arrest of someone who has “raw sexuality.”

Could we finally be getting to the real tip of the iceberg about Weinstein?
