The Wounded Astrology of Bobby Junior
A Wholesome Archetypal Response to:
Across the middle of January 1954, a truly remarkable configuration occurred in the Heavens.
In the visible sky, it may not have seemed so special: a fairly routine and slightly loose Conjunction between three highly recognisable Celestial figures — Sol, Mercury and Venus — who are largely tied together at the hip anyway: preparing to embody the Resilience, Responsibility and Determination of Capricorn.
But if we look a little deeper, we see that this loose conjunction more exactly overlapped with another, far less routine Celestial combination: the Centaur Comet Chiron, and the North Lunar Node Rahu — and (adjusting the clock forward to align with our Solar Collective) now all contained in the final 10 Degrees of the Tropical Sign of Capricorn.
There is a lot to Astrologically unpack here, it goes without saying, however what we can immediately say is that anyone born during this time would have had the Chiron Archetype deeply imprinted into their Celestial Story.
Which is interesting, when we look a bit deeper into the mythology of Chiron, its association with serpentine poisoned “arrows”, to moral acts of self-sacrifice, and how this all ties back to the Cause that the most famous Soul Incarnation of mid-January 1954 most famously advocates for.
So yes: there is more to Chiron than simply our Deepest Archetypal Wound, however it certainly gives us a tangible entrance point.
And Rahu? Rahu is the head of the Celestial Dragon — the invisible point in the chart where the rest of our Planetary Personality seems to be Tractor Beamed towards. Rahu is not unlike Jupiter in the sense that any Conjunct Planet will feel Larger, Amplified and more Purposeful — however, with its “Benefic” influence removed and replaced with a more murky and ambiguous quality that has the Astrology community somewhat polarised as to how to approach it.
Perhaps the best keyword for the Nodal Axis in general is Fated: whether it is something we feel Destined to leave behind (Ketu) or move towards (Rahu). Thus, for anyone born across the week or so of this Mega-Conjunction, it may feel like the Trajectory of their life is unavoidably tied to their Chironic wounds.
These unavoidable wounds, now attached to the Sun, would be central to their sense of Authority and Leadership (particularly in Capricorn); with Venus it would be part of their Attraction and Charm; with Mercury it might be very literally attached to their mode of Communication.
There was more happening in the Skyclock in mid-January fitty four than this: enough in fact that we might wonder whether Bobby/Bobbie Junior is also worthy of Moonchild status (The Jacked Moonchild?).
Opposite this Hot Wounded Mess of a Conjunction and 4 degrees from Ketu is Uranus: a Radical pull from across the chart towards the ideal of Freedom (but, being in Cancer, also fundamentally about Protection).
Hold that final key word: because on the day of the 17th, we have Luna also in her home Sign, moving into Conjunction range and bringing this sense of Protection (and the Emotions that come with it) even more strongly into the dynamic.
In fact, with the Sun over the North Node and the Moon fast approaching the South Node, we are right in the midst of Lunar Eclipse energy: which gives us a fun Celestial synch to that other OG Ziocucked Anti-Jibby Jabber that Bobby just anointed.
Trine to the Moon is the ultimate protector Mars: in its Traditional Second Home of Scorpio, where it gains an unparalleled Tenacity, Focus and Intensity of Action. Also Trine to the Moon in Scorpio is Saturn: freely offering the necessary Discipline to play the role of the Adversary and get Results.
But that’s not the half of it; look at the brutality of that fucking T-Square to Neptune, sitting 90 Degrees from the midpoint of the Hot Wounded Mess:
A Neptune Square does not come without some form of Deception — particularly when Mercury the Trickster is involved. Knowing this, one might assume that what we might see in Bobby Junior is far removed from what we would ultimately get. But as with the Orange Moonchild (another Mercury-Neptune Square Native, among other notable Synastry synchs the two share) we can also find someone perfectly aligned to reveal the Neptunian Deceptions and Delusions that we are all subject to.
But, to put it mildly, this is no ordinary Neptune Square.
With Venus, it becomes Spicy, Scandalous and Salacious: when the Saturnian Limitations and Boundaries towards obtaining our Wants and Desires suddenly Dissolve in a morally-ambiguous haze of Addictive Pleasure. But when we then infuse the self-sacrificial urges of Chiron into that tension… well, i’m sure you’ve already heard what results.
Of course, if we are being more sympathetic, another way to interpret this Square is through other manifestations of Neptunes Shadow: Victimhood, Subterfuge, Backstabbing… perhaps particularly arising — if Neptune ended up near the bottom of the chart — from the very Homeland, from the Lineage, even from the Family they have been charged to Protect.
The specific nature in which this Hot Wounded Mess would be played out in one’s life would be determined by their exact birth time, the part of the sky rising over the Eastern Horizon at time of Soul Entrance, and in turn the House that this Ascendant places the Mess within.
If this Stellium was located near the Eastern Horizon (i.e. at dawn), we would expect these Wounds to present unavoidably in the basic physical and attitudinal presentation of that person: we might imagine their wounds to be literally written all over them.
Conversely, if you born at sunset (as Bobby’s somewhat dicey public birth time suggests) — where the Sun gives away its final light in a humble and life-affirming display — this wounded energy would be orientated not towards the Self but to Others.
Astrologically, it would place the Hot Wounded Mess just below the point of the Descendant in the 6th House: an interesting combination, given this is the part of the sky we assign to what is unglamorous and mundane, to work and routine, to service and practical self-sacrifice, to health and disease.
It seems interesting and noteworthy that Bobby Junior’s recent act of humble submission was announced on the first day of Tropical Virgo season — the Solar expression of the 6th House — with a specific focus on explicitly Virgo themes.
And what else might be so significant about Virgo and the Jibby Jab? If we dig a bit deeper, the Maiden is an Archetype that is unmistakably linked to the darkest shadow of the cause Bobby most famously advocates for.
Also interestingly: at 29 Capricorn, Bobbie’s Mercury is about to get a final hit from Pluto, as it Retrogrades back into the Anaretic degree at the start of September.
A Pluto-Mercury Transit essentially compels you into the Conspiracy Theorist Archetype (I would know, having my Mercury exactly Opposite Bobby’s at 29 Degrees Cancer), and so we may expect further 6th House Revelations: particularly in October, as aforementioned Anaretic Pluto Stations Direct.
Or maybe not. Maybe, by doing more than any other Incarnated Soul to push back against and expose the uniquely ghoulish propaganda of the Germ Conspiracists, the appetite of that Wounded Dragon’s Head has already been satiated.
Maybe we are missing the more obvious reason for Bobby’s Fated Incarnation: that the True Archetypal Manifestation of that Capricorn 6th House Hot Wounded Mess of a Stellium is the Ripped Bloodline Elite that the Simulation needs right now.
As soon as Mary suggested it, I knew you’d do it. I was also going to ask you how on earth do you get the birth times of people, but you answered that in the post. I imagined that some of that is not public information.
The whole ex-wife suicide is particularly uncomfortable. Either way you look at it: if he had a hand on her death, damn. If he didn’t but was riddled by the guild of it all, damn. Lose-lose scenario.
Bravo! And thank you for adding ziocucked into my lexicon 🤣
