A Maverick, or a Sturdy Bridge?

In astrological literature, the definitions that come to mind when Chiron is mentioned are diverse. Just like its half-horse, half-human mythological nature, its movement in the sky initially appears erratic and unpredictable. Weaving between the rigid boundaries of Saturn and the revolutionary chaos of Uranus, it possesses one of the most elliptical orbits in the Solar System.

The identity of this celestial body has been defined in various ways by the pioneers who discovered and interpreted it:

• The Maverick: When its discoverer, astronomer Charles Kowal, found it in 1977, he couldn't liken it to either the asteroid belt or comets. He nicknamed it "Maverick," a term from American cowboy culture referring to an unbranded, rule-breaking calf that strays from the herd.

• The Rainbow Bridge: The renowned astrologer Barbara Hand Clow, however, assigned it a much deeper mission in her work titled, "Chiron: Rainbow Bridge Between the Inner and Outer Planets." According to Clow, Chiron was a "Bridge Builder" enabling us to cross from the world of Saturn (matter/the past) into the world of Uranus (spirit/the future).

Yet, there is a massive astronomical paradox here that has been overlooked for years: for a bridge to fulfill its function, it must not "wobble." However, Chiron's orbit (its Maverick nature) is extremely erratic and wildly fluctuating. So, how can a celestial body with such an unstable orbit be a sturdy bridge that safely carries us across?

The answer lies hidden in the depths of the sky: while the Moon, Mercury, Venus, Mars, Jupiter, Uranus, and Pluto periodically breach the Sun's boundaries (23°27') and go "Out of Bounds" (OOB); Chiron never violates these limits, maintaining an astonishing stability. This article explains the secret "Cosmic Brake" mechanism that keeps that bridge standing.

Astronomical Anomaly: The Hidden Suspension in the Orbit

Looking at astrological statistics, the usual suspects of the "Out of Bounds" phenomenon are clear. The planet of war Mars, the representative of emotions the Moon, the communicator Mercury, the planet of relationships Venus, Jupiter (albeit rarely and briefly), the planet of eccentricities Uranus, and the representative of the sky's depths Pluto; they all periodically exceed the 23°27' declination limit drawn by the Sun. In astrology, these moments of overflow are generally interpreted as times when rules are broken, the line between genius and madness blurs, and energy becomes uncontrolled.

Logically, Chiron, whose orbit is considered the most "distorted," would be expected to top this list. However, the data says exactly the opposite. No matter how wildly Chiron swings in its orbit during its millennial cycles, it possesses an incredible self-control mechanism in the vertical plane, namely in declination.

In a sky where Mars catapults to 27 degrees and the Moon pushes 28 degrees, Chiron stubbornly keeps itself within the 17-18 degree band. This indicates that there is a natural "Braking Mechanism" or a cosmic "Suspension System" within Chiron's orbit.

The Mechanism: The Cosmic Brake and the Analemma

In a detective story, the most crucial clue is where the prime suspect was at the "time of the incident." The mystery of Chiron is unraveled exactly here.

The path the Sun traces in the sky over a year is not a straight line, but a gigantic figure "8," and this is called the Analemma. This shape is the map of the Zodiac's undulating nature. The very top and bottom points of this figure "8" are Chiron's testing grounds:

• The Winter Curve (The Bottom of the Analemma): The path dips to its southernmost point (-23.5°) in Capricorn. Normally, a celestial body arriving here should sink to this depth. Yet, thanks to the special geometry of its orbit, Chiron cruises exactly 7 degrees above the path at this point. The depth of the path is counterbalanced by Chiron's altitude. Chiron does not hit rock bottom; it remains suspended at approximately -16.5 degrees.

• The Summer Curve (The Peak of the Analemma): This time, the path climbs to its northernmost point (+23.5°) in Cancer. This is the zone of overflow. However, when Chiron arrives here, it once again cruises 7 degrees below the path. The extreme height of the path is curbed by Chiron's lower elevation.

In summary, whenever the path (the Sun) drags it toward extremes, Chiron resists this with its inherent posture (Latitude). At other times, it has no need to hit the brakes; in its natural flow, it never steps outside the 17-18 degree band anyway.

Case Study: The June 21, 2039 Experiment

To prove this mechanism, let's look to the future, to the date of June 21, 2039. On that day, the Sun will have entered Cancer and reached the peak of the Analemma (+23°26').

• The Moon: The Moon at the same point cannot withstand this pressure and is flung Out of Bounds at +24°13'.

• Chiron: Chiron, standing side-by-side with the Moon (at 4° Cancer), engages its braking mechanism and remains steady at a declination of +17°32'.

Chiron navigates the very curve that sends the Moon reeling with flawless balance.

Why do major events erupt during times when we say "there are no aspects" in traditional chart readings? The answer lies not in the 2-dimensional (Zodiac) plane of the chart, but in its 3rd dimension (Declination) and its "Shadow Projections."

Astrology students generally accept the Zodiac circle (Longitude) as the only reality. However, planets do not just move horizontally; they also rise and fall vertically (Declination). Especially when a planet goes "Out of Bounds" (OOB), meaning it deviates from the path of the Sun (23°27') and begins to move on its own, its position in the Zodiac becomes a form of "camouflage."

It is at this precise point that the "Longitudinal Equivalent" technique, which comes from the Kt Boehrer school but is known by very few astrologers, comes into play. This technique acts like a thermal camera, revealing exactly which sensitive point on the map those loose cannons (OOB planets) are actually "aiming at."

What is the Technique? The "Ghost Position" Calculation

Simply put, it is the process of mathematically converting a planet's vertical height (its Declination) back into a Zodiac degree.

Even if an Out of Bounds (OOB) planet looks "innocent" in the sign it occupies in the Zodiac, due to its extreme declination height, it projects its energy onto a completely different sign in the chart as a "Shadow Point."

While the planet says, "I am at 10° Gemini," its shadow says, "No, my altitude is so high that my energy is actually pressing down on 15° Cancer!"

These shadow points operate like invisible snipers in the chart.

Case Analysis: Vladimir Putin’s "Shadow Mars" Chronology

We see the power of this technique most clearly in Vladimir Putin’s chart and the critical turning points of his career.

Putin's Natal Mars is at 26° Sagittarius. Sagittarius represents international operations, ideology, and distant goals. Putin’s Mars is Out of Bounds (OOB). When the "Shadow Projection" of this boundary-crossing Mars is calculated, it is seen that the energy is concentrated at 7-8° Sagittarius and its reflection (Antiscia) at 22-23° Capricorn.

Here are the dates when these "Ghost Degrees," which drew Putin's destiny, were triggered:

September 29, 1999: Second Chechen War and The Rise

This is the first moment Putin stepped onto the world stage as a "tough, ruthless, and military leader." Following the invasion of Dagestan and the subsequent apartment bombings, he launched the Second Chechen War, and it was during this period that he uttered his famous phrase, "We will waste them in the outhouse."

If Putin’s transits on this date are examined, it is seen that the Mars shadow at 7-8° Sagittarius (very close to the royal star Antares) was triggered by Transit Pluto (Power/Transformation). This contact in the shadows gave him absolute war power.

January 15, 2020: Constitution Change and Construction of the State

This is the date when Putin changed the Russian Constitution, resetting presidential terms and paving the way for himself to remain in power until 2036. On the same day, the Russian government (Medvedev and the cabinet) resigned en masse, and Putin declared his absolute authority over the state.

The zodiac equivalent of this bold move was again reflected on the shadows of his OOB Mars. While Transit Mars triggered the 7-8° Sagittarius point (the warrior side); Saturn and Pluto, making a conjunction at 22-23° Capricorn, triggered exactly the other Mars shadow degree.

Thus, Mars (Shadow Action), Saturn (State/Structure), and Pluto (Absolute Power) merged. Putin did not start a war on this date; he radically changed the structure of the state and solidified his power (Capricorn effect).

June 23-24, 2023: Wagner Rebellion

This rebellion was a process where Putin’s own created army (Mars) revolted against him, and Putin struggled significantly to maintain his authority during this period.

Again, if we examine the transits of that date; we see that Transit Saturn (from Pisces) made an exact Square (90°) aspect to Putin's Shadow Mars point at 7-8° Sagittarius.

Why a "Hybrid" Weapon?

Magi Astrology examines declinations as "Parallel/Contra-Parallel." Classical Astrology looks at them as "Antiscia." The Longitudinal Equivalent Technique is the hybrid of these two.

This technique shows not "Where the planet is" (Zodiac), but "Where it is stepping" (Projection). Especially:

• Unexplained sudden accidents,

• Unexpected political moves,

• Hidden illnesses or love affairs unseen in the chart...

All are hidden in these "Shadow Points" of Out of Bounds planets and Asteroids.

When looking at a chart, do not think that planets only go "left and right." They also move "up and down," and when they are Out of Bounds, they run an invisible cable to a completely different part of the chart.

Real astrology detective work is finding that invisible cable.

Author's Note: The technical analyses and case examples in this article are based on advanced Declination and Longitudinal Equivalent calculations, which fall outside the classical astrology curriculum.

Aylin Carosielli

One of the most controversial love stories of modern times brings the dark secrets of the heavens and the ancient archetypes of myth back into the spotlight. Candace Owens’ explosive claims have transformed the relationship of Emmanuel and Brigitte Macron from a mere political narrative into a modern Ganymede tale. But what cosmic signs lie hidden behind this story?

The world is currently buzzing about Candace Owens’ Becoming Brigitte series and the lawsuit filed by the Macrons against her. According to Owens, Brigitte was originally a man. I watched her video series, and I must say, Candace’s evidence is quite compelling. I won’t list all the details here, please watch the series on YouTube. You will be shocked.

My goal, as always, is to search for the cosmic traces behind these claims. I can approach this case from several angles. First, I want to focus on the fact that Emmanuel Macron was abused as a child by his current spouse, Brigitte. When the Macrons first came into the public eye, they claimed their relationship began when Macron was 17. However, it later emerged that little Emmanuel was only 14 at the time, ensnared by his 39-year-old teacher; be it a woman or, as Owens claims, a man. Macron’s family even moved houses because of this relationship. But Brigitte did not give up. Throughout the election campaign, this pedophilic relationship was portrayed as the love story of the century. A 39-year-old teacher is one of the strongest authority figures in a child’s life, and for such a teacher-student relationship to reach this point is outright abuse. Therefore, I will analyse Macron’s chart as that of a victim who was abused in his youth.

The other angle involves analysing Brigitte’s natal chart and the synastry between them. But here we face a problem: what is the true birth date of the First Lady? Should we use the date presented by the mainstream media, 13.04.1953? Or should we look at the chart of Jean-Michel, who, according to Candace Owens’ claims, is actually Brigitte’s elder brother, whose whereabouts remain unknown? In her series, Owens and French journalist Xavier Poussard present compelling arguments suggesting Brigitte may indeed be Jean-Michel. In that case, should we use Jean-Michel’s birth date of 11.02.1945? Let me note this: if Brigitte is truly Jean-Michel, that would make him 46 at the time this ‘relationship’ began. Regardless of gender, anyone who has sexual interest in a 14-year-old student is a pedophile, and the fact that this perversion was presented to society as a ‘grand love story’ is unacceptable.

So, let’s examine this case from all angles.

Macron’s Chart

Let’s begin by looking at Macron’s natal chart. First, I want to focus on the 135-degree aspect between his Sun and Moon. This aspect usually creates inner tension between a person’s sense of self and their emotional needs. Such a person may want to carve out their own path while constantly shifting direction in pursuit of emotional security. Although this aspect is often seen as less harsh than a square or opposition, my experience shows that it can be just as powerful and often highly significant in criminal cases.

His Moon is also conjunct the fixed star Menkar, which carries the energy of the victim.

Menkar is the alpha star of the Cetus (Whale) constellation, representing the whale’s head. In ancient mythology, Cetus was known as the “giant sea monster,” symbolising chaos and destructive forces. Cetus appears as the creature sent from the sea to devour the Ethiopian princess Andromeda, who had been chained as a sacrifice due to her mother, Queen Cassiopeia’s arrogant words. Perseus rescues her, making the story one of both sacrifice and salvation.

Menkar symbolises the danger of being victimised. Its mythological theme is tied to forces beyond one’s control, disasters, and the rituals of sacrifice. When conjunct the Moon, it can signify harm coming from a woman. A person may find themselves in power struggles with female authority figures like mothers, bosses, or teachers.

This potential is heightened by Uranus opposing his Moon. If you study Uranus with an open mind, you’ll see that it appears prominently in the charts of many transgender individuals. In mythology, Uranus is connected with the motif of castration, and this symbol frequently echoes in trans charts. Could Macron’s chart suggest that this female authority figure might actually be trans? Astrologically speaking, yes.

His Moon is under significant tension. The 135-degree aspect from Mercury shows mental pressure and manipulation, which could stem from this female figure. Falling into the clutches of an older woman at 14, being mentally conditioned, and remaining under the spell of what is essentially an abusive relationship throughout life is the result of such manipulation.

Mars squares the Moon, indicating aggression or attacks from the female figure. Just a few weeks ago, Brigitte was seen striking him in the face while they disembarked from a plane; a public glimpse of what may well happen more often behind closed doors.

Jupiter’s 45-degree aspect to the Moon amplifies this energy negatively, turning Macron into a true victim of a woman. At the same time, the fact that the revelations are coming from a woman (Owens) further reinforces this chart’s narrative.

The Role of Uranus

Returning to Uranus, we see it square Mars, 135 degrees to Jupiter, and 45 degrees to both Mercury and the Sun. Interpreted as a planet alone, Uranus brings sudden outbursts of anger (Mars), abrupt changes of fortune and ups and downs (Jupiter), shocking blows to identity and thought, sudden revelations, and unexpected exposés (Sun-Mercury). But when viewed through its mythological lens, these effects may manifest through an Uranian figure in Macron’s life.

The Ganymede Myth

Looking deeper into Macron’s life, we see that after this relationship with his teacher began in his youth, he rose with astonishing speed, both in school and at Rothschild Bank, skipping examinations and qualifications that others had to endure. How he ascended the political ladder to become the President of France is outlined in detail in Candace Owens’ videos and Xavier Poussard’s book. His past and rise are so murky that even his family dynamics are highly complex, too much to summarise here.

But why do I highlight this meteoric rise? Because we can see its story written in his chart. To understand this, let us look at the myth.

Ganymede, in Greek mythology, was the son of King Tros or Laomedon of Troy, famed for his extraordinary beauty. His story revolves around divine desire and the price of immortality. Zeus, struck by Ganymede’s beauty, fell in love with him. Disguised as an eagle (or becoming the eagle itself in some versions), Zeus abducted Ganymede and took him to Olympus. There, Ganymede became the official cup bearer of the gods. Zeus granted him immortality and placed him among the stars as the Aquarius constellation.

This story is about a powerful authority figure (Zeus) seizing a young, innocent soul, both an act of sacrifice and of “being chosen.” Thus, Ganymede represents both the victim and the divine reward.

Ganymede symbolises the theft of youth and innocence. Astrologically, it represents being “chosen by force” or being pushed into a role not by one’s own will but by a powerful force. His connection to Aquarius adds themes of freedom, social service, and eccentricity.

The myth is also a symbol of homoerotic love and even of pedophilia. In Ancient Greece, the Ganymede myth was used to legitimise same-sex love, particularly in teacher–student dynamics.

The cup bearing motif signifies spiritual nourishment, collective service, or “quenching another’s thirst.” Finally, his ascension to the heavens represents being elevated to a divine status, achieving great power or position.

When we overlay this myth onto Macron’s life, we begin to see the codes behind the story of a young boy, targeted by his teacher, who nonetheless rose spectacularly in academics, finance, and politics despite academic failures. In his natal chart, the asteroid Ganymede is conjunct Saturn and trines his Sun, Mercury, and Venus. This trine suggests that he has internalised his “chosen” role, strengthening his personal authority. It is, indeed, a modern Ganymede story.

Pandora’s Box Opens

But Pandora’s box is opening. Looking at Macron’s transits, we see Pluto over his Ascendant, signalling a dramatic transformation and renewal of his identity and public image. What’s more, Pluto is conjunct his natal Karma. A profound karmic cleansing is at play. The time has come for reckoning. His life is about to change radically, and resisting this change will only make it harder. If he were in front of me, I’d tell him, “Reveal the truth, and be free.” But instead, they have chosen to stir the festering wound by filing a lawsuit. The transits are sharp.

Macron’s natal chart features a Neptune–Pandora square, which points to secrets hidden behind Neptune’s mists. All it takes is a trigger for these secrets to emerge. And here, that trigger is the Owens asteroid in transit. When transit Owens strikes the Pandora–Neptune square, subconscious secrets and collective lies can burst into the open. This is a moment of revelation, both personally and collectively. Moreover, transit Owens is making a 45-degree aspect to Macron’s Ascendant, adding its influence alongside Pluto’s.

The transits don’t end there. Transit Pandora is currently moving over Macron’s natal Saturn–Ganymede conjunction, bringing a fated reckoning. The Ganymede myth highlights themes of power, youth, and victimhood. When Pandora activates this conjunction, past stories; especially those involving teacher-student dynamics and controversial age gaps surface. Saturn here symbolises a serious public reckoning, a confrontation with authority. Saturn rules limitations, reputation, and accountability, and when Pandora crosses it, hidden errors, long-kept secrets, or the “sealed boxes” of authority figures are opened. It is a reckoning, the shadow of Saturn revealed.

Another transit suggests the Macrons are not consulting an astrologer. Transit Jupiter is conjunct Macron’s natal Owens. In Macron’s life, the Owens symbolism is all about revelation and exposure. Jupiter’s activation here likely pushed him toward legal action. Yet this same transit has ensured that the claims are now being broadcast worldwide. From the Far East to the Arabian Peninsula, mainstream media is reporting on the allegations that Brigitte was born male. Jupiter not only amplifies scandals but also brings these stories to the centre of ethical and legal debates. It’s like a cosmic megaphone amplifying the Owens effect.

A Turbulent Chapter

Macron is, perhaps, in the most turbulent chapter of his life. Transit Uranus reaching his IC point is shaking his private life to the core. This transit brings long-hidden secrets to light and triggers unexpected disruptions in his family and personal sphere. Uranus is a disruptive yet liberating force, tearing apart the old order and pushing one toward a new reality. The key lies in not resisting this karmic and fated period, but rather in choosing integrity.

Macron’s chart is like a celestial stage where ancient myths are reenacted. The theft of Ganymede’s innocence, the opening of Pandora’s box, Pluto’s karmic transformation, all these symbols point to a profound reckoning, both personal and collective. This story is no longer just Macron’s story; it is a tale for anyone who wants to understand the eternal clash between power and innocence. The heavens whisper: “Truth will emerge when its time comes.”

With Ozzy’s passing, of course, birth charts immediately started circulating. Despite his Rodden rating being a C, many took the birth time as gospel and began analysing his death through house placements 😊 Kudos to you all.

As for me, I don’t feel the need to analyse Ozzy’s death; because to me, Ozzy is immortal.

Just two weeks ago, I was at his last concert. During Metallica’s “For Whom the Bell Tolls”, I tried to live-stream the moment, but the signal wasn’t strong enough. Eventually, I put my phone away and just soaked in every second of Ozzy’s final appearance on stage. When “Mama, I’m Coming Home” played, forty thousand people sang along through tears. That memory is far more meaningful to me than any death chart ever could be.

But through Ozzy, I want to bring up something else a pattern I’ve noticed in the astrological community.
Many of you are familiar with Aleister Crowley, thanks to the flood of admiration he often receives.
But how many of you know that Ozzy had a song called “Mr. Crowley”?

Ozzy released it on his 1980 album Blizzard of Ozz. He first encountered Crowley’s name through a book given to him by Led Zeppelin’s Robert Plant. At the time, Crowley’s Thelema cult was gaining massive attention in the arts scene. The rebellious children of rock were glorifying this satanic occultist, eager to follow in his footsteps.

At first, Ozzy was intrigued by Crowley’s dark and mysterious persona. After all, he was the Prince of Darkness. But after reading the book, he said:

“I read a book about him and thought he was a very interesting character.
I just thought he was a nutter, really.
He wasn’t really the devil worshiper people think.
He was just into weird stuff.”

And in the song itself, Ozzy doesn’t praise Crowley. He criticises him.

“You fooled all the people with magic…”
he sings, pointing to the deceit behind Crowley’s magick.

In other words, while Crowley admiration was becoming trendy, Ozzy didn’t fall for it.

This is where things get even more interesting astrologically.
In Ozzy’s natal chart, asteroid 28794 Crowley is conjunct Saturn in Virgo, a placement that creates deep scepticism, scrutiny, and pressure.
Crowley is also at 0° declination, suggesting a strong influence.
Yet something still doesn’t “click” for Ozzy.

That’s because Crowley also squares both his Sun and Mercury indicating a sharp ideological and mental clash.
Crowley’s teachings go against Ozzy’s identity and worldview.
So even though he saw Crowley as an intriguing figure, he never became a disciple.

And that, I believe, is worth reflecting on.
Perhaps it's time to approach Crowley’s legacy with a more critical eye, even in astrology.

Rest in peace, Ozzy. You’ll be loved forever. 🖤
