Today marks the centenary of Edward Gorey's birth. And, today, I found these images by him: the Fantod Pack, a mildly oracular deck of cards that, unsurprisingly, predict a number of things for the reader that range from the uncomfortable to the horrific.

You can observe this centenary in a number of ways, the worst of which wouldn't be bingeing Jenna Ortega's turn as Wednesday Addams in the eponymous series on Netflix.

The Correct Birth Chart of Malcolm X: Scorpio Rising

In Honour of His Centenary

Based on my corrections to settings and calculations using online planetariums and my own star charts, which synchronise the constellations with the Nakshatras (28) and the Gregorian calendar - four years' work.

Part 2/?

Kristen Patterson / KP O'Neil

Jan. 15, 2025 / Uttara Ashadha P3 & P4 in Sagittarius / Social Capitalism & Prolific Writing

Recap from Part 1:

Malcolm's Sun / Gameplay instincts and triggers: Krittika Padas 1 & 2 in Taurus - Key-Holder & Diplomat

the stars of Subaru-The Pleiades-Seven Sisters-Mothers: territories, events and abilities of The Shining, life patterns from the story of Kartikeya / The Murugan and the Chakras;

Malcolm's Ascendant / Core Personality and life-drive: Jyeshtha Pada 3 in Scorpius - Ouranos Secrets in revolution, technology, astrology & stolen children -

the star Paikauhale (The Wanderer/Homeless) with his Ouranos at Lambda Piscium, the Red Room star (Twin Peaks - David Lynch is right) addressing the use of the term Black Lodge;

and edit: I wrote and published this the day before the announcement of David's death/transition - I wondered at his death being on the 16th, in Prolific Writing, when he was clearly the perfect Social Capitalist - and it turns out he transitioned on the 15th, when the energies shift between Social Capitalism to Prolific Writing - not the first time I've paused to be correct about the Pada of our deaths being the reason we die -

I'm moving forward with an eye for signs that Malcolm has been connected to David's work and Spirit Guides for some time - and I'm sending his chart to his children, to Bob Roth at the David Lynch Foundation, and to Tony Nader - hopefully one day these astrology corrections can be added to their/his toolkits;

Malcolm's Descendant / Core Personality as death-drive (thank you, Sabina Spielrein, for discovering it:) Rohini Pada 3 in Taurus - Business Guru

the star Hassaleh in Auriga (The Charioteer;)

Malcolm's Venus / Investments: Krittika Pada 3 in Taurus, conjunct with Betty's birthday, next to his Sun - Professional Muse

the stars of The Hyades again: territories, events and abilities of The Shining, life patterns from the story of Kartikeya / The Murugan and the Chakras;

Betty is his Muse, and he is everyone's... hmmmm... pause for heartbreak, thanksgiving...

With an AA Rodden rating for Malcolm's birth time, his Vertex and Anti-Vertex are seemingly fixed to the dates of Jul. 21-27 and Jan. 22-28: Padas 2 & 3 of Pushya in Cancer, and Padas 2 & 3 of Abhijit in Capricornus -

Praesepe/The Beehive/Home of Big Brother and The All-Seeing Eye,

and Okul/Occulus/The Eye of the Goat -

eyes on eyes -

(same Ascendant/Descendant as mine, and therefore same Vertex/Anti-Vertex - my experiences mixed with my research landed me at the decision about Lodge territory in the Beehive - but the Beehive originates with the Supreme God-Mother, Ala, and the Sibyls - is it truly Her territory, being smeared or overrun? Let's see if I can decide by the end of Malcolm's chart analysis... and given his devotion to Allah... does the name Ala pre-date the word Allah?)

I would, and I will - one day - take more time with these placements -

but speeding right along, I'll explain his Anti-Vertex as being near-fated decisions/actions he pretty much had no choice but to accept and enact, hitting those calendar dates more than once -

(and here's where he helps prove me right about re-inserting the displaced Nakshatra of Abhijit - and at full-size - when I found a gap in the Wheel by synchronising three ways of measuring it, back in 2021:)

I estimate Padas 2 & 3 of Abhijit, Jan. 22-28 (in Capricornus - not Aquarius - according to online planetariums, which is where I get my birth chart data,) to belong to Fated Winners/Heroes and Reverse-Engineers -

and I can detail what Malcolm was reverse-engineering by checking his chart circuits;

each of us have patterns (these circuits) set by our Ascendants, and they can be found in list-form and geometrically by lining up the 112 Padas (same if you stick with 108 Padas) so your Ascendant tops one column, next to Pada 1 of Ashwini in the other column - geometrically, by drawing lines across your chart wheel, starting with your Ascendant and Ashwini Pada 1 - I'll make diagrams of Malcolm's circuits and include them here:

(watch this space for images)

so - Malcolm's near-fated decisions and actions are as a Fated Winner/Hero - free will/wheel, at all? His sister Ella, in interview, stated they watched over his birth keenly, the seventh child, as a family rooted in ancestral understandings about the seventh child being born to do great things -

while his Vertex is interdependent with his Anti-Vertex: chicken-and-egg scenarios, as his decisions are relative to the near-fated decisions and actions of The Hive - namely the Caregiver-Medics and Collaborators in and around it...

people and Spirit Guides can be associated with this placement by calendar dates...

I guess I should check the reverse-engineering sooner than later...

...right - same circuits as mine, so only a few minutes to check:

Malcolm was/is reverse-engineering as a Jupiter Leader (my estimation of Pada 1 of Uttara Phalguni in Leo,) and an Interviewer (my estimation of Pada 1 of Mrigashira in Taurus;) with Jupiter Leadership generally amounting to our Wheel-Turning influence on the world - Jupiter being your primary function and House Lord (Creator of Houses, actually - as proven by a school/tradition of Chinese astrology;)

Malcolm's Jupiter, Wheel-Turning influence - if you're ready for it - in Pada 3 of Uttara Ashadha, in Sagittarius (here-and-now, as I type,) aligned with the modestly-named h1 & h2 Sagittarii, and Iota Sagittarii -

in what I call Social Capitalism - unfailingly sustainable (competant against militant threats,) profitable community economics -

his primary function, in all his houses - astrologically and geographically -

his concepts, Gurus, significant male relationships -

"You can't have capitalism without racism."

"Show me a capitalist, and I'll show you a bloodsucker."

(I'll come back with original sources for those quotes from him, but there he is - reverse-engineering capitalism as a social capitalist in interviews...)

think I'll mic-drop for now, and go make a cup of tea...

Oh - but I should include Malcolm's Juno with his Jupiter -

Juno pulling back the clouds to see what Jupiter is doing -

I connect Juno to dissociation, as illustrated by my delayed remembrance to include her in this post -

and in child-friendly terms, I connect Juno to the Fool's Journey in our charts - the Dorothy-and-Toto journey (and I'll choose The Wiz, much as I love Judy - and knowing how much David Lynch loves her...)

Malcolm's Juno being in Ophiuchus, lining up with the Moth Cluster and Baby Scorpion Cluster/Caldwell 76 in Jyeshtha Pada 4 of Neptune Secrets (Soul Contracts, murders, Muses - murdered Muses) - conjunct with his Core Personality/Ascendant,

with his Neptune below Leo's jaw - in Pada 4 of Ashlesha, conjunct with his Sevastopol asteroid - as in, Crimea/strategic position, heavily-fought-over - Pada 4, in my estimation, belonging to Anarchists, ruled by the star Algenubi/Ras Elased - (Southern Star of) the Head of the Lion -

Dorothy, Toto and the Lion... Ted Ross... will look for connections...

but I'd say we're right over the target: can't have sustainability without profit - just need the profit to be ethical -

Malcolm's dissociative-thinking, awakening-to-self...

does he have a strong placement influencing his Neptune Leadership in Pada 4 of Uttara Phalguni... I'll come back and say whether or not, when I exhaust my search...

but with Juno close-to-the-bone, so-to-speak, and Malcolm's Descendant as Business Guru - ahhhhh! That's his Descendant talking, when he calls down capitalism -

his Descendant dogged/Toto'd by his Juno, and how many Anarchical Muse/Neptune Spirit Guides reaching out to him through his Neptune -

with himself being poured out through his Venus investments as a Professional Muse to everyone in the world - no balance of profit for him in that role -

unless...

Parallels between Vlad, The Impaler and Nandor, The Relentless.

I'm watching a series on Netflix called “Rise of Empires. Otomman: Mehmed VS Vlad” and noticed some similarities in the history of the famous Vlad who inspired Count Dracula, coincidence or not.

Vlad III

Vlad was, in summary, a prince voivode, who grew as a prisoner in the turkish court of the ottoman empire. He was trusted to be the Wallachia's ruller, wich was his birth right. However, he later decided to ally himself with the enemies against the ottomans for Wallachia's freedom, since it was a vassal state.

Now, to give a context, Vlad was famous for having a dark and cruel personality, but was also extremely skilled with the sword and had a reputation for being a fierce warrior, like Nandor did.

He dared to go against Mehmed II, who at the time was not only the most powerful sultan in the East, but also a Vlad's childhood friend, since they grew up together, which made the war between them having a personal character. Vlad ignored the bonds and memories between them for his beliefs.

Now... Vlad grew in a society that was always at war trying to expand and normalized cruelty, this kind of fucked him up.

Nandor finds it difficult that even eternal mystical creatures like the Djinn don't understand his appeal for barbarism.

One of Vlad's control techniques was fear, his reputation for the exquisite torture methods gave him the title of Impaler and rumors that he drank from his enemies' blood. Vlad can be perceived as a monster, but in fact it was a very political strategy.

Such as Nandor, Vlad didn't accept any supplication; He didn't spared elderly, women or even children.

In his way of facing Mehmed, Vlad not only rebelled, but did it so arrogantly and disrespectfully, that it threatened Mehmed, the most fearsome personality for Europe, to gaining a fame as weak.

I remembered this passage watching the E01S05:

"The Impaler lord’s message to his childhood friend is written in the blood of thousands , “Come and get me”. That kind of disrespect was something that a ruler like Mehmed II could never forgive because in this kind of world, reputation is everyting”

These rules applied to Nandor, just as for Vlad and Mehmed, even if Al-Quolanudar it's fictional. Nandor may have distanced himself from the war mentality and have become soft and pathetic, but in his own way that will always be part of his identity.

Nandor can be soft in many ways, he can accept to be beaten, deceived, kidnapped, stolen and threatened with death. But what he cannot accept is a public humiliation that threatens his reputation. Perhaps another vampire may, like Deacon, but Deacon was no warfare.

To Nandor, this MUST be paid with death "What choice do I have?"

It made me think "Guillermo is really fucked".

Guillermo has seen many faces of Nandor, but I think this is the very first time he really saw The Relentless.

Only left to us to find out if Nandor's love for Guillermo can overcome his centenary pride, his own identity, in this path of violence.

But oh… There will be violence.

On September 19th 1817 the remains of Robert Burns are moved to the Robert Burns Mausoleum in Dumfries.

Robert Burns was originally buried in St Michael's Churchyard, Dumfries, in a simple grave, marked only by a plain stone slab. In 1803 when Dorothy and William Wordsworth visited Dumfries they had difficulty in even finding the grave. Burns' admirers came to believe that this was an insufficient memorial to the poet.

In 1813 his friend, John Syme formed a committee and launched an appeal to build a mausoleum in his memory. One of the subscribers was the Prince Regent, later George IV. The mausoleum was completed in September 1817. The statuary group which is within the mausoleum was designed and worked by Peter Turnerelli. It depicts Burns' own conception of 'Coila', representing the Ayrshire district of Kyle where he was born, throwing her inspiring mantle over the poet as he works at the plough.

The laying of wreaths at the mausoleum on the poet's birthday was instigated by Dumfries Burns Club. This ceremony was observed throughout the 19th century and formed part of the celebrations of the first and second centenary of his birth. It is still an important element of the rituals of Burns' birthday today.

According to Penguin Books, which produced a series of paperbacks to mark the centenary of his birth this February, John Steinbeck’s novels still generate a combined sale of around two million books a year.

Ava Gardner & Le Galion: L’ASTRE – Ava, Incendiary Star

The year 2022 marks the centenary of the birth of an icon of Hollywood cinema: Ava Gardner. Archetype of the femme fatale, personification of luscious femininity, the great actress was close to the house of Le Galion at the end of the 1950s. She met Paul Vacher and became an ambassador for Sortilège, before asking him to compose a tailor-made fragrance for her. The perfumer, close to many stars of the time (Marilyn Monroe, Judy Garland, Grace Kelly…) complied. In 2022, Le Galion is launching L'Astre, a contemporary rewrite of a formula that has remained private for decades. Worked in collaboration with the heirs of Ava Gardner who offer access to their archives, L'Astre symbolizes the brilliance of these two great names of the 20th century, whose influence continues today Created by Rodrigo Florès-Roux, this new version of L’Astre is, according to the perfumer, a “large, exuberant and magnetic floral.” After a catchphrase made of sensual spices, the perfumer worked on “a spectacular floral accord” made of white flowers, before continuing with an amber, warm and enveloping background.

I can reveal that the life story of the legendary Welsh actor, who was married to Elizabeth Taylor (twice), is to be told in three separate projects.

All should come out next year, to coincide with the centenary of his birth in 1925.

One film will feature Michael Sheen as Burton; another has landed rising star Harry Lawtey to play the Welshman... and the third may go in a completely different direction, with either Leo Woodall or Richard Madden portraying the actor, who died in 1984.

[...] Meanwhile, documentary maker Alex Sibley is working on a film about Burton's life. It will be based on existing footage and photographs but will also feature dramatised passages . . . in which Michael Sheen will appear as Burton. [...]

Bibliothèque-Musée de l'Opéra National de Paris

“Born in Zurich in 1910, died in Paris in 1999, Rolf Liebermann was one of the major musical figures of the 20th century. Composer, conductor, director, he successively directed the Hamburg Opera (1959-1972) and Paris Opera (1973-1980). At the Palais Garnier, his name is attached, among others, to The Marriage of Figaro in the production by Giorgio Strehler (production resumed this season) or to the world premiere of the three-act version of Lulu directed by Pierre Boulez.

On the occasion of the centenary of his birth, the Hamburg Staatsoper is joining forces with the Opera Library-Museum and the Paris Opera to pay tribute to this exceptional personality.” - via Wikimedia Commons (original description translated from French using Google Translate)

Was going through my grandpa's box of antique books from the 17th-19th centuries and found his Hungarian little red book of Lenin from 1970 celebrating the centenary of his birth. Which was way after he left during the 1956 uprising so like he couldn't have hated communism that much 🤔 Either way, a very cool little historical trinket. Wish I could read this barbarous tongue lmao.
