The horrifying spectacle in Liverpool when a car deliberately rammed into a post-football crowd injuring 79 was partially alleviated when remarkably no one was killed (as yet). What makes it all the stranger was the culprit charged yesterday by the CPS appeared to be a decent family man. Comments on his birth chart – 4 November 1971 – will have to wait till he is tried since contempt of court laws for prejudicing trials are strict in the UK.
I am struggling to articulate a vague thought – but his background is very odd for this kind of atrocity.
It follows on from a tragic fire accident near Oxford in the middle of May when two firefighters and a member of the public were killed in a fire, which also struck me as significant in a way I could not put a finger on. In the UK firefighter deaths on duty are rare. There were no such fatalities on duty in 2023, with only 3 reported in the past decade. That too is odd and as yet no explanations have been given.
All that comes out of the UK chart is the Solar Arc Uranus conjunct the 8th house Mars, exact this month, which did suggest a catastrophe though mercifully on the Liverpool occasion it did not result in mass deaths.
Otherwise the Progressed Moon has been moving through the UK’s 12th house since May 2023 – which is usually a time of endings and introspection. The start coincided with Charles’s coronation in May 2023. His Cancer diagnosis was announced in February 2024.
The injured Cavalry black and white horses of April 2024 had the Progressed Moon midway through the 12th. That was when a Taurus Sun was opposition Scorpio Moon square Pluto.
The Southport dance class killings of children in late July 2024 which led to anti-immigration riots may also fit the pattern.
These latest incidents in May 2025 had the Progressed Moon at 2 degrees Libra just over the conjunction to the UK Uranus and moving to cross the UK Ascendant this September/October.
Not sure if that adds up to much but there is a sense of out-of-the-ordinary events forming a pattern that is difficult to pin down or articulate.
The Liverpool chart, 28 August 1207 JC (thanks Jane) is certainly on edge with challenging, can-be-brutal tr Pluto square the Mars this year; and a Neptune Return with a worrisome tr Neptune Saturn conjunct the Neptune and opposition Venus; plus a tr Uranus square Uranus upheaval.
The Liverpool Football Club, 3 June 1892, whose post-match celebration was wrecked, has its Uranus in Scorpio under pressure this year from tr Pluto in square; and its Mars in Aquarius at 11 degrees square the UK’s 8th house Mars in Taurus. More upheavals will come since the Solar Arc Saturn is square the Uranus in 2026.
The Liverpool Solar Arc Sun is exactly opposition the Liverpool FC Neptune Pluto in Gemini at the moment linking their destiny.
Strange times – not as horrific as the Kings Cross Fire or Zebrugge disaster when tr Pluto was opposition the UK Mars – but definitely strange, scary as well as damaging.
Can it be a case of PTSD, he was a Royal marine and apparently on drugs, I think his defence team ought to investigate this possibility.
Since you have connected this incident to the UK itself. The Leo Mars transits seem to be highlighting the UK rx Saturn 11h opposite Aqua Venus 5h focused in a T-square to Scorpio Neptune.
Motorist (as described in numerous articles with Leonine thinning hair) drove into a crowd. Leo Mars 11h. Seems like a Leo Mars who is also quickly becoming a Leo Saturn might have started by watching (11h audience member) the game, didn’t care for the outcome, and drove to the crowd before plowing into it (also 11h) celebrating 5h. It ended in panic and horror. Focused on the Scorpio Neptune. Horrible panic.
Strikes me that Leo’s are known by their reputation and not known personally. People think they know them but they only know the poster version. This man has some serious issues to be able to drive over top of random people.
The car hit the crowd just before 1800 on the 26 May 2025 This puts the ascendant at 1 Scorpio with the MC at 14 Leo which was exactly conjunct the Liverpool FC Chiron and close to transiting Mars at 18 Leo. The Moon at 29 Taurus was conjunct Uranus at 27 Taurus which would indicate an emotional upset involving the people.
Transiting Chiron was exactly conjunct the Hillsborough disaster Sun at 25 Aries. Uranus was exactly conjunct the Heysel Disaster Mercury at 27 Taurus and the Scorpio Ascendant was on the Heysel Pluto. Memories of painful old wounds were being reopened.
Perhaps the synastry of another comparable heinous act might offer some pertinent insight?
On April 26 Kai-Ji Adam Lo, plowed through crowds at a Vancouver street festival that left 11 people dead and dozens injured.
Could you please do a chart on Sunderland AFC who have just won a return to the Premiership after a 10 year absence
Horrible event, but there really seems to be a silver lining of the worst being avoided.
As a football fan, I wouldn’t be surprised if this turned out to be just someone really carrying a grunge against FC Liverpool. Stranger things have happened in football.
The celebration took place 2 days prior to Heysel Stadium disaster 40th anniversary. The incident was invoked by much feared Pool supporters, and led to banning of the English teams from European competitions till the 1990-91 seasons. It also was met with England having to play their 1990 World Cup, where they qualified, rounds in Sardinia and Sicily in hopes of avoiding any further incidents. The team famously went to overperform, arriving to semis and losing the bronze to the hosting side Italy.
Personally, while being raised by a Spurs fan, I have a soft spot for Pool, mostly because the first ever football match I’ve been to was OPS- Liverpool in September 17th, 1980. OPS from Oulu was an outsider in Finnish football joining an ice hockey, bandy, and Finnish baseball teams from then – not unlike Liverpool – Northern harbour and industrial town. Them making it to European stage was a big deal. My dad took me to the match after we’d visited my mom who was hospitalized after and aggressive cancer had been found only in July. And I remember watching the pitch from my dad’s shoulders on the side of the field that didn’t even have a proper stands. It was my dad’s way to give me normality. I can only remember being to all these sports events with my dad, but I now know my mom would have been there too – she wasn’t a football fan, but she was an athlete herself and would not have missed a chance to be there.
Uranus on Mars in the 8th would not necessariily bring mass death, but odd and upsetting.
Thanks. Odd and upsetting is how it feels.
I feel the same, Marjorie. There seem to have been more fires, generally. The sensation of ‘something’ brewing has been around for a while for me, but current world events and politics don’t help. Things in my own life have improved, after a somewhat dire phase – so the feeling puzzles me more than it might.
One astro thought I’ve had is the possible relevance of the 12th house 1066 Moon at 29 Pisces, square Uranus 28 Sagittarius. Saturn, Nodes, Neptune have all been pushing on that for a confused population, with perhaps some Uranian shocks? That Moon is also aligned with Scheat, Pegasus star of rising and falling. It is often associated with disasters of various kinds. The Virgo Solar Eclipse in September may be revealing, opposing Saturn back in Pisces and Neptune 0 Aries? Brady says “Any news will have a sense of destiny or fatedness about it” (SS9 New South). The first one in the series had a Mercury-Saturn-Neptune conjunction.
Janes Thanks. I had another look at the upcoming Solar Eclipse chart – it is very odd with the last degree Virgo New Moon Scheat opposition Saturn Neptune and trine Pluto and Uranus – with a yod onto Mars and another yod onto Neptune Saturn. It feels uneasy with constant shifting and shuffling to find a direction.
Speaking of fires, Canada has evacuated thousands in 3 provinces due to wildfires.
We can’t really be sure, that this was his intent. The general consensus on news programmes was that he was allegedly stoned. There was a suggestion that the police were throwing as many charges at him in order to make as many as they could stick. And this isn’t my thinking. But seeing as nobody has as yet died, it does cause a little doubt. Especially with him being a former Royal Marine.
World really needs to begin a reintroduction into civilians for marines…the high octane aggressive mars for most part of youth suddenly asked to live quietly with tolerance in a civilian society ..is like asking fire to become ice…
Have neighbours and seen many ameircan veterans returning from Iraq war then becoming violent.
Thanks Marjorie. I’ve been wondering about that eclipse for various reasons – the late degree, the opposition to Saturn, Neptune and Scheat, the way it sits at the seasonal ‘hinge’ of the Autumn Equinox, and its alignment with the French First Republic Sun and the UK Pisces Moon. It’s there for the USA Civil War Neptune’s move from Pisces to Aries too. Seems to reflect the big outer planet shifts, some still not settled in their new homes or making their symbolic intentions clear quite yet?
