Was DJ Twitch a Suicide? - Astrology
When things like sudden deaths happen there is always conspiracy theories that pop up. People ask 'Did Twitch really commit suicide', 'Was he murdered'?
As we can see from the chart there were two things going on at his time of death. One of them mental and the other emotional. The first of the two was that Chiron the wounded healer was opposing his Mercury. To me this means that he had communication with someone that really hurt him mentally.
This really wasn't anything new because his depression started a while back when Saturn hit is moon. When Saturn hits your moon you feel the weight of the world and things become dark. It all depends on how you navigate these energies that will determine your outcome. These energies need to be honored.
Saturn is a contracting energy. It doesn't really get along well with Uranus where his moon resides. What he needed to do was deal with endings, contraction, making things smaller. Maybe downsizing. We know his show on Ellen ended so maybe he was feeling the pressure of the home.
What we do know from this chart is that he spoke to someone that sent him over the edge. The combination of Chiron and Saturn with the transiting moon triggering the event was too much for him to handle.
Why I do not thing it was a murder is because there was no violence in his chart on that day. There was no severe Mars or Pluto Transits.
The key in life is to work with the energies that are given to you. He was unable to quite his mind and handle the pressure of reality (Saturn). What he didn't know is that too would pass. RIP Twitch

I was a huge SYTYCD fan in its first few seasons (it lost its lustre along the way, as most reality shows do) and Twitch was one the most vibrant talents and personalities to emerge from the show. The news of his passing is profoundly sad.

Dear Everyone:
⚠️TW: Talk of Mental Health & Suicide⚠️ (though I feel like I shouldn't need to put a trigger warning on this, because everyone should be talking about this.)
Why must the people who do so much in the world and make everyone the most happy...have to experience mental health struggles to the point of suicide?
What brought this on? Well...I found out that Stephen Boss, aka tWitch, had ended his life by suicide with a gun yesterday. He had a wife, he had kids, and he had close people who loved him and cared for him. He had so much going for him. He had been on So You Think You Can Dance, he was on The Ellen Show as the DJ & Dancer, and he had influenced millions to dance.
And yet...he still felt like he had to hide all the pain that was roaring inside his head. And on the morning of December 13, 2022, he finally listened to those thoughts and ended his life.
So below, I'm going to provide a long answer to the question a lot of people are wondering:
"Why didn't he get help if he was hurting so badly? There were so many resources available to him!"
You wanna know why he may have ended his life instead of getting help? It's likely because getting help takes months. Let me explain the process: There are two ways to get help.
from a doctor:
You decide to get help from a family doctor. Well, getting help from a family doctor could take weeks...and by then, you may not feel suicidal anymore, and may end up cancelling the appointment because "It's not a problem anymore". If you don't have a family doctor, then you have to go to the emergency room. And the only thing the emergency room does, is take you to a mental health unit and give you a momentary psychiatrist for your mental health.
From a Helpline:
Most suicidal people are required to call a helpline. There, you're expected to tell complete strangers about your suicidal ideation. If you say the certain answers that they're looking for, they'll either advise that you head to a mental health unit, or they'll send an ambulance over to you to take you to the nearest mental health unit. There, you are given a momentary psychiatrist and prescribed medication...and the process begins.
Once they start you on a mental health medication, they remove you from the mental health unit's doctor's care, and kick you out of the unit and into the real world a couple days later, before the medication even starts properly working... they expect you to stay alive for another few weeks until the meds start working. And then, the chances of meds working on the first try, is low. Almost no one gets the dose or the medication right on the first try. So every time the medication is upped, you have to wait another 4-6 weeks for THAT to kick in. Another higher dose, another 4-6 weeks. By the time some people feel better results from the help, it'll be 3-5 months later. On paper, it's not that bad. But to a suicidal person, that feels like years. And if the medication doesn't work, you have to either go back to the mental health unit, or find a psychiatrist yourself. And a surprising amount of psychiatrists are older and experienced, but only see your name and diagnosis rather than your personality and your face. And often, their choices are made based on those few words and specific words out of your explanation. And unfortunately, the person doesn't feel properly heard. But, the psychiatrist is the only one who can prescribe a new medication, so you go with the flow, listen to the psychiatrist, and end up being prescribed a new medication. And when you get taken off a medication and put onto a new pill, you can't just stop the medication cold turkey and start the new med right away. You have to slowly ween off the old med, before getting onto the new med. That alone, takes weeks. And your mental health worsens as withdrawl symptoms start. And then once you're on the new meds, those take another 4-6 weeks to start working. And that might not be enough...so they up the dose. Another 4-6 weeks for that to start working...up it again...4-6 weeks later, and it maybe starts working. On top of that, your parents are watching you suffer. They feel terrible seeing you like this, and they almost feel frustrated that your mental health issues aren't magically fixed. And the mental health help (depending on where you are) is draining your parents' wallets. And as the suicidal person, you can see how much your mental health issues are making them sad. How low on funds they're getting. Suicidal people notice all of that, and know it's their fault. So that only worsens the suicidal thoughts. And no matter how much the parents say 'We're okay' and 'don't worry about it', we know...And we can't possibly be convinced otherwise, because we've seen all the proof we need.
The point I'm getting at is...mental health issues are so hard to treat. It takes forever, and even after a year or 5 years of tackling these damn thoughts and fighting with medications...you wonder if it was even worth the constant waiting. Because...it seems like successful suicide has much quicker results than getting help does. And if it's unsuccessful, then you start the whole mental health unit experience, and start the trial and error with meds.
And yes, ending your life hurts the people close to you. But you know watching someone fade can sometimes be so much worse...
In death, you see a beloved influencer. In living, you see a progressively breaking individual. Some people prefer the broken individual...but not everyone does...
Plus...it seems like people listen to you more after you've ended your life...then they have when you were alive.
So...the reality is...some suicides are impulse choices. But...other suicides are thought out and prepared for...But no one truly knows who did what, because...the people who make those choices are not able to speak for themselves after death.
So...please consider this. And let's educate those without mental health issues, about the reality of 'Getting help". Because "Getting help"...is just a sentence with a neverending path.

Hearing about DJ tWitch’s death is really hitting me in the gut for so many reasons. You truly never know the face of suicide because all of us could be in that place. Depression also has many faces, so please check in with yourself to see if you may be experiencing depression and if you already know that you do struggle with it, please PLEASE keep yourself safe and surrounded by support of some kind. It’s such a hard world out here for everyone.
Reach out to those you love and reach out if you need help. The world is a better place with you in it.

As we are enjoying our bliss from all the good stuff we got from the Voice. I am deeply saddened to hear about Twitch the DJ and part time host on Ellen. I heard he passed away by suicide. I am floored by this because from what I saw on the show and his dance videos on TikTok he was a happy person with a great family. Another example of you never know what a person is really going through. It’s so hard to understand because he has 3 small children. It seems like an I could be very wrong that the tone of Ellen’s post wasn’t one of shock that his happened but mainly sadness. Maybe he suffered from depression or anxiety something the outside world not know. Anyway I feel for his family and friends an hope that anyone who any thoughts of suicide please reach out for help.
Passing it along. Stephen 'tWitch' Boss, DJ on Ellen DeGeneres show is dead at 40 (sfgate.com)
