This update on #545 — The tale of a modern Bluebeard — and is from the UK Spectator, December 8, 2018 edition. The book review by Zoe Apostides “Vanished without a Trace” comments that the Landru trial was France’s response to the English Jack the Ripper, except the London police never apprehended Jack. Richard Tomlinson the author of Landru’s Secret, documents Landru’s journey from penning love letters to his future victims to proposing and then eventually luring them from gay Paris to the rural Gambais, his killing field for the magical day. Tomlinson states that Landru’s victims were not the…

This is rectified to 09 Libra. Interestingly, his chart does not make the “power zone” criteria that Michel Gauquelin set forth for medical doctors and scientists but does for politicians as his Moon is right at the Midheaven at the Culminating Degree. Dr. Nassar received his osteopathic medicine degree from Michigan State University in 1993 and completed his family practice residency at St. Lawrence Hospital, Lansing, Michigan in 1996. Nassar then had a primary care sports medicine fellowship at his Alma mater in 1997. He was Team Physician for the M.S.U. Women’s Gymnastics and Women’s Crew Teams and Associate Professor…

Update: from the Toronto Star Originally a murder suicide Barry and Honey Sherman were targeted in a double murder, according to the latest update by Toronto police. Initially there was some suggestion that the death of Apotex’s founder and his wife was a murder-suicide, however investigators now say, after a tip supplied on January 20, 2018, that it was really a double homicide. Sherman was born February 2, 1942 in Toronto. His wife Honey, dates unknown, was born in Austria during WWII. They had been married forty-seven years. The times though are approximate for I could find little information to…

Well, what do you know, Michel Gauquelin had Ian Brady’s accomplice too. From the Astro.com website, which explains the costume she wore. Brady convinced Hindley that there was no God, and she stopped going to church. She absorbed his philosophies, adopted his interests, and altered her appearance to suit him, bleaching her hair and wearing Germanic clothes. She had no qualms about allowing him to take pornographic pictures of her and of the two of them having sex. They intended to crack the pornographic market but failed. Brady nicknamed her “Myra Hess”. Also, I found how to get the asteroids…

Ian Brady, Britain’s child murderer and rapist, died on Monday. Michel Gauquelin has his birth data, so we decided to view it The chart has some asteroids, from WinStar Express, as Kepler does not depict them at all except on a printout. I prefer Solar Fire’s integrated approach, but SF has a lot of problems running on my Win 10 Machine for whatever reason. Brady was born on January 2, 1938 in Glasgow. He has an expansive preponderance in the ninth house of long journeys, and legal entanglements. The large amount of retrogrades in his chart: Mercury, Uranus, Neptune and…

Sada Abe was a prostitute infamous for killing her lover She worked as a maid in a Tokyo hotel, but also served as a geisha-girl prostitute. That is rather ironic as “Sada” in Japanese means “the pure one,” though the obvious pun of the Marquis de Sade somehow always comes to my mind, probably because of her erotic murder. In 1936, Miss Abe strangled her lover cum lover, Kichizo Ichida during mad passion. She was angry as he had just told her e no longer wanted her sexual favours. Bitter, but seemingly sentimental, once he was dead, Sada cut off…

British psychologist Havelock Ellis wrote up a fascinating case study of eight-year-old Marie Schneider. I rectified it based on her account, giving her a 01 Aquarius Ascendant; John Dillinger has this same degree on his Descendent according to Astrotheme.com E. C. Chambers claims it should be the other way and similar to Marie. Following that hunch up, Chambers is correct. Dr Ellis’s preface
