Frank Sheeran, the central focus of Scorsese’s The Irishman was by all accounts a monster. A corrupt labor union official with links to the Bufalino crime family, he started his adult life with a long stretch in combat in World War 11 where he admitted involvement in several massacres and summary executions. He then moved onto murder for hire for organized crime, was set up as muscle in the teamsters union with Jimmy Hoffa whom he was later accused of assassinating; said he supplied guns for the Bay of Pigs anti-Castro forces; and further claimed he supplied rifles for the killing of JFK by the Mafia. He was convicted of labor racketeering, given a 32 year sentence but let out on medical grounds aged 71 and died of cancer aged 83.
Born 25 October 1920 in Camden. New Jersey, he had a formidably nasty chart – with a Scorpio Sun and North Node in a Water Grand Trine to Pluto trine Uranus; with Pluto in a brutal and ruthless opposition to Mars in Capricorn, making that the driving rod of the Grand Trine. His Mars opposition Pluto may also have been square an Aries Moon (almost certainly was). He also had Jupiter Saturn in Virgo.
Not a man you wanted to meet up a dark alley, for sure.
Hi Marjorie,
Always eye-opening to see the astro interpretations along with someone’s bio. I remember you had mentioned that a water grand-trine has healing properties. How do we interpret Sheeran’s then?
Thanks,
Using 11 events, I rectified his birth time to 9:10 pm with an Asc of 11Cn11. Pluto is conj his Asc for control, while his Saturn, is in the 4th
opp his MH for leadership, administration. His Pluto on Asc opposes his natal Mars, ruler 11th, groups, Mafia. Natural ruler Uranus, groups, Mafia, rules the 8th of death. Arachne, traps, ambush is in his 8th.
When he died, trans Saturn, r7, open enemies was exactly on his Asc. Tr Jupiter, r6, sickness, cancer was on his IC. Trans asteroid RIP, “Rest In Peace” opposed his natal Asc. At death, Solar Arc d’Arrest was on his 8th House cusp….his heart gave out. Solar Arc Atropos, endings, was conj his natal Sun.
The chart is fabulous. My both sons, being 8 years apart have Mars in Cancer opposition Pluto in Cap squaring Mercury ( the older one) and Jupiter ( the younger).I hope they will make better choices than mr Sheeran.
Thanks Marjorie
A pretty brutal looking chart indeed. Is a birth chart potentially active after the death of the native? Publicity generated for a movie for example?
Sheeran was both an hoodlum and an author of unreliable memoirs as a lot of the tales recounted in his memoirs appear to be of doubtful accuracy . In particular the Pennsylvania based Buffalino crime family for which he worked were extremely unlikely to have been involved directly in the infamous killing of Crazy Jo Gallo at Umbertos Clam House in New York . All the evidence suggest this was probably carried out by four gun men with local Columbo family mob connections as part of its decade long war with the Gallo crew.
