Death on a Full Moon

Playing with my astrology software last night, I noted to Gandalf about how many peeps in my life have Moon In Cancer.
Cancer is the home of the Moon, which is lovely. These astro types are intuitive and receptive, great sense of humour but it also makes them the most susceptible to addiction, self abuse and mood swings.

When the news of Heath Ledgers sad death broke this morning, I thought, he must have a moon in Cancer. Dunno why, just made sense. Looking at his chart, he does have this placement. He died on a Full Moon. Always intense for Cancer Moons.

Some people with Moon in Cancer, such as Drew Barrymore, Mary J. Blige and Robin Williams have been able to overcome their addictions and mood swings. Others such as Heath, Kurt Cobain and Janis Joplin, all Cancer moons have suffered at their owns hand, meeting with untimely deaths and talent and their lifes dreams unfulfilled.

Cancers Moonies are like dogs chewing on a bone, even though the meat on the bone has long gone. Gnawing until they begin to gnaw at themselves. Reclusive, the sit in their kennel and chew and stew about whatever unhealed wound is aching.

Heath had Venus, Mars and Mercury in Pisces in the 9th house, I think he may have written to release his pain, one day he may have written something that was so brilliant that he would share it with the world. Who knows now?

Astrology aside, whenever a child is left without a parent I am saddened. Particularly when this child will have no memories of their father other than the films that he leaves behind.

Love and light to anyone who is hurting.
