Marjorie, I recently looked up the British definition of tr3ason and was surprised to find that it was only about attempts on the monarch’s life and didn’t include anything like giving or selling state secrets to a foreign power, aiding and abetting an enemy of the state or giving succour to the enemy.
Giving or selling state secrets etc is classed as espionage not tr3ason. And the reason that it is important is that if Parliament was to remove Andrew’s titles and his place in the line of succession, they could only do so if he was found guilty of committing treason. Yet it is said that is what Charles threatened him with. So does that mean that Andrew was doing something dangerously sinister that endangered Charles’s life? Or was he just threatening him with Espionage, which can have a prison sentence, but doesn’t allow Parliament to remove his titles or place in the line of succession?
Marjorie, do you read anything that points to Andrew losing his place in the line of succession or going to prison? Because at the moment so many people are baying for his blood.
Marjorie, Lady Annabelle Goldsmith (matriarch of the Goldsmith dynasty), passed away at 91 today.
She led a colourful life – yet met with a fair amount of tragedy. She has famous children: Jemima, Zac & Ben.
Dear old nebulous, sometimes religious, Neptune will retrograde back into Pisces on 22nd October. Our final inundation of this particular hallucination! Of astro interest, I think, is that this coincides with the state visit to Italy by King Charles and Queen Camilla on 22nd and 23rd October. BBC website comments on the plan for KC and the Pope to pray together:
“But according to Buckingham Palace and the Church of England, there has been no similar moment, with a British monarch and pope praying alongside each other at a shared church service, since Henry VIII’s split from Rome in the 16th Century.
Royal sources have emphasised the historic significance of this occasion, with the King having a long commitment to building bridges between faiths.”
Henry VIII has the North Node at 29 Scorpio, with the IC at 28 Scorpio. King Charles has his Chiron at 28 Scorpio. Maybe symbolises some ‘healing’ mission after 500 years since the Reformation? Tr Saturn in Pisces will also trine these during its retrograde, while tr Uranus Rx in Taurus will be once again aligning with Henry’s Nodes and MC, and opposing Charles’s Chiron again for a moment of change, at the very least. Do the final passes of planets in transit over a degree bring things to fruition?
@Jane, maybe we just had a prelude (I got a BBC news alert minutes ago, 19:00ish Greenwich time) with Andrew giving up his royal titles after a conversation with King Charles?
I also think this is a sign we are very close to full release of Epstein files: Arizona AG is taking legal actions to get Adelita Grijalva who’d be the 218th vote for a release sworn in.
I agree, Solaia – and can you just imagine the “conversation” the two brothers had?! It’s also interesting that there are potential links with all the current UK China spy case confusion, and the delayed plans for the huge new Chinese Embassy, which would sit opposing the ancient Tower of London. Andrew had some dubious friendships, one of which was allegedly with a Chinese spy.
Back in April Marjorie noted re Andrew:
“starting from this July there is a run of tr Uranus square his Pisces Sun and then square his Pluto till early 2028 which will put his life through the wringer with a series of upheavals.
Family relations are also running into a maelstrom with Charles throughout this month with tr Uranus square their composite Pluto; plus an undermining tr Saturn Neptune square the composite Jupiter all year.”
Re Epstein files – the late Virginia Giuffre’s book, Nobody’s Girl, is due to be published next week, possibly 21st October, as Neptune reverses one more time. From the ‘trailers’ it seems she more than mentions her connection with Andrew. Plus, as you say, the strong possibility of more files being released.
Hello, CNN online has published the indictment document for John Bolton. The date and time stamp shows 2025 October 16, 4:22 PM, district court of Maryland. Presumably the court is the one located in Baltimore.
Diane Keaton has died. Neptune takes another acting great, in its last few months before ingress.
Somehow shocking, I don’t know why. A very funny, gifted actor, and stylish, beautiful woman. Briefly looked at her Capricorn chart, and there’s Mars with Saturn, so a tough core beneath the great charm and quirky clothes. Reminds me of what Marjorie wrote about Jilly Cooper a little. Seems to be one of those times when a number of people who’ve been famous all our lives more or less just leave the earthly stage. RIP.
We have Saturn conjunct Neptune, both opposite Venus, this weekend.
That was in the sky when Stalin died.
Perhaps the people good at astrocartography can chime in and say which part of the world is affected this time.
Could you please take a look at David Hogg, Gen Z Parkland shooting survivor, gun control advocate and founder of Leaders We Deserve, which is promoting progressive candidates and challenging the ancient Democratic establishment? Born April 12, 2000, Los Angeles. I don’t know where to look for a birth time.
Thanks!
Born 15.25pm.
Thanks!
Side-stepping any “end of days” , “alien invasion” dialogue (I think) I’d love to hear your insights into the 3i-Atlas (possibly?) comet that has been moving at high speed through our solar system. Any thoughts on what it’s upcoming astrological meeting with the Sun and the Galactic Center could herald for the world? Are comets usually omens of ill-fated events or transitions for humanity or can they also be a sign of good to come?

Thanks Marjorie
Looking at your post on Hatton made me think firstly that professional sports people tend to be driven (in Hutton’s case sun Pluto and perhaps moon square Saturn) and secondly these driven people have difficulties when their career ends. I wonder whether there are any astro pointers here.
Antifa has recently been designated a domestic terrorist organization in the USA.
Hungary, Poland, and the Netherlands appear to be next to do so.
The Netherlands for one was, funnily enough, liberated by Antifa(scist) allies only 80-81 years ago.
Bringing the tooth fairy nonsense here to a site full of people who can read is foolish at best.
Tooth fairy nonsense indeed! Thank you for the morning chuckle JB.
A profile of Lee Miller would be interesting, I think. There is an exhibition of her wide-ranging work at the Tate from now until Feb 2026. She was raped at the age of 7 which her brother said fundamentally changed her character. Her son Antony Penrose only remembered his mother as as an alcoholic until he discovered “trunks filled with warped photos” which took him on a journey of discovery. There is an interesting interview with Penrose talking about his mother’s work in The i Paper (1 October 2025). I wonder if Chariklo is strongly aspected in her chart.
See previous post:
Lee Miller – changing the image of war
6th October 2024
Chariklo – if a 4 degree orb is allowable it was tied into her Saturn square Pluto = war.
Thanks! It was a great post. Had forgotten about the film. Next time I’ll check first.
Any predictions for January 2026?
I noticed when checking my Solar Return I have all of the other personal planets in close conjunction with the Sun, and the Astrology King website notes there are a total of 10 planetary conjunctions across Capricorn/Aquarius all month.
Sounds busy, though thankfully without the Saturn-Pluto that made March 2020 so hellish.
Saturday January 17th is quite interesting as Saturn and Pluto are involved. Saturn, will be sextile to the Capricorn Sun, whilst also in sextile to Uranus. Making Saturn sitting on the Sun/ Uranus midpoint in Pisces. Also Neptune in Pisces is sextile to Venus in Capricorn, with Mercury conjunct Mars on that day. As Saturn is the ruler of Capricorn and 10th house, it may involve leadership or a sudden blow – as Saturn is sitting on Uranus /Sun midpoint, involving Uranus/Aquarius Air, Neptune/Pisces Water and Capricorn Earth. This could mean a sudden loss or rebellion carried out in haste – according to Ebertin’s midpoint book. Underwater Earthquake? Hurricane? Air raid attack. Or just a personal row? As a New Capricorn Moon is in the 18th January, indicating a new situation or the start of something? Just a thought!
Gaza/Israel peace plan? Plus the US and their leaders. Turkey Qatar and Egypt are connected too.

Hi Marjorie,
Would you mind taking a look into the massive (and violent) demonstrations taking place in Madagascar? I’m reading that it’s the Gen Z who are protesting and demanding the resignation of their president.
These Gen Z Protests around the world are an amazing phenomenon.
