Recent News July 2011: Amy Winehouse Dead. Massacre in Oslo.
AMY JADE WINEHOUSE September 14 1983-23 July 2011
Born and died in London, UK.
Here's a very useful link to start looking at the inner demons facing
Amy Winehouse
Viewing her chart it is immediately evident how Mutable (changeable) her energies are, bolstered by a big dose of Fire signs.
The intensity of the groupings and their interactions means she was an extreme version of all of the relevant mutable signs: Virgo, Pisces, Gemini, Sagittarius, and the fiery Aries, Leo. Not surprising that she is known for flamboyance, creativity & drama (Leo), drugs (Pisces), excess (Sag), assault charges (Aries) and the Virgo and Gemini qualities would have expressed through her writing and were likely to have been evident to those who knew her best. The big mix she was dealing with means she was certainly not a poster girl for the sun sign she was born under, Virgo.
Her mother Janice says: “Amy was a beautiful child, always busy, always curious"(Gemini). “She was always very cheery (Sagittarius) but she was also shy."(Virgo)
Amy was also quoted in the UK Telegraph March 2011:
"I'm my own worst critic and if I don't pull off what I think I wanted to do in my head, then I won't be a happy girl," (self-criticism is very Virgo)
"I'm a natural singer, but I'm quite shy, really." (Virgo=shy)
Anyone with significant planets in the late degrees of mutable signs would have been strongly aware of Amy Winehouse as an artist, and likely to be very aware of her pain - and certainly with Neptune and Chiron now close in Pisces (July 2011) in the band 0-4 degrees, the transiting square to Amy's natal Chiron at 3 Gemini indicates how lost in her pain she was. Already overwhelmed by natal Neptune aspects, she succumbed under this extra flooding of her system. Other factors always apply in a major event like death, so the precursor eclipse at 24 SAG (June 15 2011) set off her natal mutable t-square with 5 factors including planets and nodes, all triggered in the 20-26 degree range of her mutable points. There will be more indicators but these 2 underlined indicators show the immense challenge she has faced in respect of mutable energies - the hardest challenge in our present-day world on account of the spiritual drives being so easily ensnared in addiction and the culturally approved endorsement of money, fame and power over service, devotion and modest goals ( the latter being true Virgo-Pisces impulses). These opposing drives would have been of considerable pain to a conflicted Amy Winehouse.
The response to her death reinforces that many loved and supported this talented woman, who was unable to love and support herself.

Updates July 26-30 2011
This text has been edited and expanded to reflect the latest information available, being a 10.25pm actual birth time. The rising sign is still mutable ( adding more Gemini energy) but the Moon shifts from an estimated Sagittarius to early Capricorn. With a 5th house Sun and Mercury covering Virgo-Libra, Amy's musical creativity is emphasised. Any strong Leo/5th house emphasis will also bring Aquarian tendencies. Amy has Aquarius at the top of her chart, the Midheaven -hence the strong rebellious, unconventional qualities.

The Oslo Massacre in Norway
This horrific slaughter of innocents at the hands of a right wing extremist has occurred as Pluto and Uranus come to their closest square in the first half of August 2011. The perpetrator, his victims and the locations of the events would share a very strong resonance to 4-5 degrees of Cardinal signs (Aries-Libra, Cancer-Capricorn) In calendar terms this means being born on the days on or close to March 26, June 26, October 28, December 27. In addition people's individual birth charts with the focal degrees and signs on the Ascendant at birth (aka Rising Sign) or opposite that point - or the Moon positioned there, or another important planet like Venus, Mars or Saturn. So there are a lot of strong resonating factors which will enhance a person's potential to be caught up in such an event. What is extra powerful is the collective karma that is involved in mass events, whether positive or negative. Everyone who dies in a shared location in a certain time frame is very strongly karmically connected and their collective experience is very likely to resonate with an historic event in that same location. Karma is not simple, so it cannot be assumed that the dead in 2011 in Oslo, all previously died together in some ancient war on the island of Utoya, nor that they were collectively perpetrators of such an atrocity. Their connection, however ancient or recent, is now strengthened.
The offender in these present events has apparently reacted in an extreme-right response to multi-culturalism and immigration. He wore a policeman's uniform to fool his victims.
Breivik's online manifesto against the "Islamization of Western Europe," published just hours before the bloody attack, echoes anti-Muslim sentiment that has found a renewed voice on the fringes of mainstream politics across the region. -source article
The Pluto-Uranus combination in the signs Aries-Capricorn completely sums up the sudden, unexpected violence (Uranus in Aries) fuelled by an intense feeling of disempowerment (Pluto in Capricorn). Breivik lives in a nation that has little taste for extreme right wing politics. Lacking systemic support, he chose to act alone (Aries). Not surprising though, he chose to hide behind the uniform of control (Pluto) used by the system (Capricorn). Saturn in Libra contributes with loss of relationships for the bereaved.
This dark side of the Pluto-Uranus revolutionary/anarchic impulse is likely to rear its head again in other resonating people and places, as the two forces remain locked in evolutionary change mode until early 2016. The system is being radically restructured across many nations but some will resort to force and violence (the old way) in this process - instead of the responsible use of power ( the new way)

Amy: Update July 27
Another writer has picked up on a factor I overlooked - the trigger effect of Mars now in late Gemini, reaching 22-23 degrees as the deaths of Amy Winehouse and the Norway victims occurred. This late Gemini position of Mars is an energising/aggressive activator of the 24 degrees GEM-SAG lunar eclipse in June. (Energy has power as it builds to exactitude, as well as at the exact and waning phase, and various triggers can be involved to set off the combined energy effects)
