Elaine Park

Young Lady Disappears From Gated Community

From: LA TIMES:

Police are seeking the public’s help in finding a 20-year-old Glendale woman who has been reported missing since Monday.

Elaine Park was last seen the morning of Jan. 28, and her family subsequently reported her missing. Her car was found sometime on Feb. 2 parked along Pacific Coast Highway in Malibu, according to Glendale Police Sgt. Robert William.

“Elaine’s personal property was found in the vehicle along with the keys,” he said.

Glendale Police Department spokeswoman Tahnee Lightfoot said police then conducted a search of the coastline and of the car. Authorities were unable to locate Park, and no evidence of foul play was found in her vehicle, she said.

“We are focusing our efforts, at the moment, with speaking to all of Elaine’s friends,” Lightfoot said.

Park’s brother told KTLA she was at her ex-boyfriend’s home before she went missing. However, Lightfoot said no one is currently a suspect in Park’s disappearance.

Park is described as 5 feet 6, approximately 125 pounds, with long brown hair with blond tips. She also has a tattoo of a cow’s skull on the upper part of her left arm with another tattoo of an unknown design on the lower half of the same arm.

From DAILY NEWS:

In Southern California, authorities are asking for the public's help in searching for a 20-year-old Glendale woman who has been missing for over a week, with her car found abandoned in Malibu.

Elaine Park was last seen in the early morning hours of January 28 after a date with her boyfriend. She had been considered to be voluntarily missing until deputies found her car on February 2, parked along Pacific Coast Highway with the her key, cellphone and other personal belongings inside.

Police have been actively searching the coastline in and around the area where Park's car was found. There is no evidence of foul play, and no one is currently a suspect in Park's disappearance.

According to Glendale Police, her status is now "critical missing."

Park is described as Korean American, 5-foot-6, 125 pounds with a thin build, long brown hair with blond tips and brown eyes. She is known to where heavy mascara and make up and has a tattoo of a cow skull on her upper left arm with another tattoo of an unknown design on the lower half of the same arm.

From DAILY NEWS:

Glendale police suspended their search efforts for Park on Feb. 3 but said they were continuing the investigation and turning to her family and friends for help. Park was reported missing on Jan. 30 by family members and her vehicle was found in Malibu on Feb. 2, parked along Pacific Coast Highway with her keys, cellphone and other personal property inside.

Last week, William said, a Los Angeles County search and rescue team searched for Park in the Malibu area but could not find her.

What bothers Susan Park is the roughly hour of video footage on Jan. 28 from 6:05 a.m. to 7:14 a.m. — when Elaine Park’s vehicle is leaving her boyfriend’s home in the 2600 block of Delphine Lane Calabasas but before she is seen leaving through a community gate. That time period is unaccounted for, Susan Park said.

She said she received two DVD’s with private footage and community footage that omits the hour.

“It was almost pitch dark,” Susan Park said, when her daughter’s car leaves the community gate at 7:14 a.m. — roughly 69 minutes after she drove away from her boyfriend’s house. “You can’t really see if it’s her as the vehicle is driving out. You clearly see a license plate number.”

I was sent this case by a reader and it caught my eye because I have had several similar ones in the recent past. The consistent feature in all of them is the discovery of the victims car with all their belongings still in it. Although these cases may have been carjackings the presence of belongings with the car in undamaged condition is not ordinary for these types of crimes. Most carjackings are about money. These crimes don't look like ordinary robberies. There are also similar features in the charts. I will show you what they are.

This chart is drawn for a few minutes after she leaves her boyfriends home and you can see that she is stopped and confronted right away. The seventh house ruler, the Moon, is right there in the first, showing a confrontation. The Moon is disposed of by Uranus in the third house, showing a vehicle as being the "intention". I don't consider the Sun in this chart even though it rises in the first. It does not rule a house or have power other than it's presence in the angular first.

I do not like the placement of the tenth house ruler with the eighth house ruler in the twelfth. It sort of hints at hidden motives. Although it looks like, from this end, that the intention was a car jacking, these other placements seem to indicate there is more to it.

This next chart features the Sun as it moves onto the seventh house cusp. This makes the Moon the secondary chart ruler and with these two in the first house, you see the actual meeting between Elaine and her kidnapper. As before, these planets are disposed of by Uranus, now in the second house and showing us the emphasis on money in this matter. The car + money? Again, the tenth house ruler is in the twelfth and now the secondary ruler, Mars, is in the second, bringing the money theme together. Is this a business? A carjacking business? Or is there something more?

Just like the last case I did, Marcela Garcia, this happened out in the open in daylight hours, the car was dumped with her money and belongings still in it and the woman is missing. In the Garcia case, I was seeing abduction and possible trafficking. But here, in these charts I see the Moon in the first, which indicates, in general, that Elaine either knew this person or went along willingly for some reason. The presence of money markers makes me wonder if she owed somebody money or if a promise of money was involved in this.

The first house ruler is now in the second house, which I often have seen as the trunk of the car. It is probable that they forced her into the trunk and drove out of the complex in her car. Node in the seventh also tells me that this was planned in advance. But I am not sure that Elaine did not know about this plan already. I just can't say for sure.

And this chart appears to tell the same story. With Moon in the first, it looks like she is in control of the situation and with the seventh house ruler, the Sun, in the twelfth, the other person appears to be behind her in some manner, perhaps to remain unseen. Even though the first house ruler remains in the second house I am now thinking that this is not the trunk of the car after all but a money marker. The first house ruler, Uranus, with the dispositor, Mars, also in Aries, together in the second house seem to indicate a forced or pressured "highjacking" of sorts in order to get money. Now, how this plays out I am not sure. But did Elaine owe money for drugs? Was she a sex worker? A performer of any sort? It just seems like she knew about this situation in advance, such as knowing she owed the money, perhaps, or was interested in the money being offered, etc.. I just can't pin it down.

And the chart for an hour later continues the same theme. The first house ruler is now Neptune and it is placed in the first, telling me again that Elaine is in control somehow. Mercury, the seventh house ruler, is in the eleventh house with Pluto, both in Capricorn, disposed of by Saturn in the tenth with Saturn disposed of by Jupiter in the eighth. She is going somewhere willingly but she will be killed when she gets there. These are people she knows, that she considers "friends" (the eleventh house) but the Saturn connection and the eighth house disposition tells me they had plans for her. The node opposes Neptune so she did not know about their plans and would not have gone along if she had. But Neptune indicates she was hiding something, keeping it from others. This may have been connected to a hidden life, a dark side of Elaine. The Moon in the twelfth supports this theory and if you notice, it is still disposed of by Uranus, still in the second house. Elaine was earning money in some dark manner that she kept to herself. A double life perhaps?

In this chart I immediately notice the change in the Ascendants and arrival of Uranus in the first, indicators that something in the situation has changed. The first house ruler is tucked into the twelfth with the seventh house ruler with Neptune nearby, disposing of the seventh house ruler. She is being taken somewhere to be hidden, or a place where they won't be found. I am not sure, at this point, if they intend to hide her for a longer term. Notice also Mercury and Pluto together in the tenth house. The tenth marks the home of the abductor or, at least, their current location. Mercury and Pluto indicate an altercation, most likely a verbal dressing down, that occurs once they arrive at this new location. Overall, things do not look good for Elaine at this point and the charts as I have seen them do not get better.

In this chart, the first and seventh house rulers are in the eleventh, a standard marker for "alternative" sex or sex between people who are not partners. This does not describe rape, per se, at least not these aspects at this time. The fourth house ruler with the chart co ruler in the tenth house supports the theory that they are in this house. Uranus rules the tenth from the twelfth house in the sign Aries, an indicator that this is a "hideout" or a place where outlaws on the run hide from the law. This interpretation goes back to the old days when they were called outlaws. LOL. Today, they are criminals.

Although there were money markers in the abduction chart they are not ongoing so this may not have had anything to do with money. They do not appear to be using her for cash. She has a connection with this person, this has been shown in most of the charts including the abduction chart, but I am not sure what at this point. There are altercations, mostly verbal, and she has appeared to go along willingly up to this point. So is this a boyfriend? And ex boyfriend? A secret lover? Whatever, there are sexual contacts also in this chart and they do not appear to be brutal so it is not rape. So what is it?

I have one more question for those who knew her. Did she have a stalker? Someone harassing her? Whatever the relationship was it was not good and this chart shows her death, which is very sad. Apparently the sex did get brutal and she died during the act. You can see the seventh house ruler in the fifth, a marker for sexual activity with romantic overtones and with the first house ruler together with Pluto in the eighth this shows how brutal it became. Perhaps she rejected him or didn't do for his offers... something that sparked his anger? But during this sexual encounter, forced or not, he escalates and kills her.

Pluto in Capricorn is not as puglistic as Pluto in Taurus might be but it does indicate a beating rather than a shooting or a stabbing, for instance, and most likely with a wooden object of some sort. Most likely triggered by something said (Mercury). Saturn ruling the seventh house in the sign Sagittarius describes a rugged individual much older than our victim, perhaps a LOT older. The age difference may be the cause of her rejection although I think it would be because she had a boyfriend already. Frustration over the age difference and disparity in lifestyles (he is more of an outdoorsy, woodsy type who probably hunts and spends a lot time on the road) would be a good reason to reject an offer for a relationship. Besides the fact that he is likely a criminal (Uranus) and has spent time in confinement (Saturn).

Here you see Saturn, which marks the body after death, in Sagittarius, disposed of by Jupiter in Libra in the fourth house. This shows she was left somewhere close to home. Then you see the Moon and Sun in the eighth, disposed of by Uranus in Aries in the tenth, showing again she was killed in this "hideout" and disposed of nearby. This place is in the woods, near a park of some sort. Aries shows bbq pits and other fire pits while Mars shows hunters and fishermen, people who use weapons and sharp objects like hooks. Jupiter disposed of by Venus in Pisces with Neptune nearby in the ninth she was disposed of by water. The air signs mixed with water indicate a waterfall. Any park near her home that also has a waterfall would be where to search for her. The maps I looked at indicated there are several parks and 3 waterfalls. I apologize for this but I just can't get any more precise.

Maricela Garcia

YYoung Lady Disappears Outside Storefront


FROM NBC News:

The day was just supposed to be a normal shopping trip for Maricela Garcia and her younger sister Sarah. But the evening quickly turned into something much more sinister.

"My gorgeous, talented, tender-hearted daughter reduced to one word: Case," Maricela's mother, also named Maricela, wrote in a public plea for help on Facebook. "I need to know what is happening. I'm so lost without my Maricela."

Maricela was out in Reseda, California with Sarah, hunting for bargains at a local Goodwill store the evening of January 12. The story goes that Maricela told Sarah she was headed outside to smoke a cigarette and would return shortly. Surveillance video shows the 26-year-old walking out of the store at 7:22 p.m.

Maricela never came back.

Sarah found her sister's locked, tan BMW in the parking lot of a neighboring dollar store. Her purse was left inside. Her cell phone, which was not in the purse, was either turned off or had lost its charge.

"People are saying she probably just walked off, which isn't the case," Misti Patten, who is working on behalf of Maricela's family, told Dateline. "There is much more to this than just that."

The fear that something more frightening may be going on stems from what family members say happened next. As Maricela's sister Sarah was out searching that night, she walked into the nearby chapel of St. Catherine of Siena Catholic Church.

"Two women there told her they think they saw a woman resembling Maricela inside the church not too long before," Misti Patten told Dateline. "They said she quickly stormed out and looked pretty upset and worried about something."

Authorities with the Los Angeles Police Department are investigating, but officials have said they do not suspect foul play at this time. It's a statement Maricela's family adamantly rejects. They admit Maricela is not a perfect person, but say she would never do anything like this.

Several searches have been conducted, including one last Saturday led by the organization Search Dogs 24/7, a volunteer group working with the families of missing persons across the southwest United States. According to Misti, several of the dogs alerted to Maricela's scent in a number of areas, one specifically near a dumpster by the Goodwill store where Maricela and her sister had been shopping. That's where searchers reportedly located a choker necklace family members say belongs to Maricela.

Authorities were called in and collected the necklace and a few other items of possible interest, family members said. But Maricela's loved ones are pleading for the police to do more. In a letter posted to Facebook on Monday, Maricela's mother urged the LAPD to gather surveillance video that may paint a clearer picture of what happened that night. They believe someone was following Maricela.

=====================================

This case was sent to me by a reader and I encourage anyone who has a case that they would like to see here to send it to me via my Facebook page. Not every case is viable and many do not have reliable time lines but leave that to me and don't discount a case just because you are missing information. Sometimes it can be found online so send it along. Likewise, you cannot expect that the case will end up here. It depends on many factors.

This case did not stand out for me at first. I looked at the charts and just did not get an immediate read. It took me a few months of study to get this one done and I apologize to those who were waiting to see what the charts reveal. I am ready to show you now what they are and how I read them.

The first chart was done for the time she left the store to smoke. You can see the first house ruler, the Sun, conjoined Pluto in the fifth. Pluto rules the fourth so this shows us her current location and this planet usually describes chaos and disturbing situations but also describes dirty places. This probably describes the dumpster outside where her necklace was found. So she was smoking somewhere around there? Anyways, the seventh house ruler is in the ninth and describes this person she meets out there. Uranus describes someone unusual and extraordinary in some manner, both good and bad while Aries shows someone who is aggressive, energetic and acting in their own self interest. Uranus in Aries in some cases describes a criminal or a person who is "hiding" from the law.

Anyways, Uranus is square to the Sun so they "bump" into each other. She may have recoiled (Uranus square Pluto) and her repulsion may have angered this person, who is mostly likely a male (Aries being masculine). The ninth house may describe an immigrant, a transient (or vagrant) or a student. Perhaps a foreign exchange student. At the same time, Neptune and Venus in Pisces are in the seventh sector which may show drug or alcohol abuse. This placement may also describe a vehicle of some sort that he was driving at the time.

Also note that the fifth house can describe shops and stores, especially those with clothing or cosmetics. We know she was shopping in Goodwill that day. Saturn also in the fifth may describe cheaper items, used items or antiques.

I believe another important marker here is the disposition of Uranus by Mars in eighth. This person may have committed crimes in the past, most likely violent crimes. His intentions were not good.

It is not exceptionally clear but I believe this chart shows the abduction. You see the Moon, her secondary ruler, in the twelfth with Saturn moving into the fourth which indicates confinement. Mars has moved into the seventh sector, showing an expression of aggression or even violence. Venus and Mars rule the tenth / fourth house axis, showing a new location. I beleive, although again I must express it is not explicitly clear, that she was pushed into the trunk of his car. She was locked down into the trunk and this is where she was confined and abducted.

Her family believes she was followed somehow and this may be true. She may even have been stalked considering the node in the first. This shows us that she has been to that location in the past and was familiar with the area. She may have been targeted because he had seen her before. I am not sure, but this is possible.

I believe this chart shows continued confinement at a remote location. The first house ruler in the fourth with Saturn. This location is defined by Jupiter in Libra so it is expansive, airy, probably in a populated area. Jupiter is disposed of by Venus in the sixth with Neptune so this is a place where business is conducted, a business involving women (Venus) and, since the sixth house ruler is in the eighth house, it also involves sex and is probably illegal. I have several of these cases in my files right now with women disappearing under similar circumstances and I think they are related to trafficking. I think Maricela was kidnapped and is being trafficked. The fourth house ruler is in the second, after all, showing income from this practice.

The secondary chart ruler, the Moon, is in the eleventh house, showing casual sexual contact with strangers. Because of Uranus in the eighth this is unusual sex or perversion.

Further enlightenment in this chart has the seventh house ruler, Neptune, in the sixth in Pisces and inconjunct to the Moon. This tells us a few things. They take pictures or make movies. They drug the women (Neptune conjoined Venus) and Marcela is having a hard time, maybe even an adverse reaction, to these drugs. Another scary marker is Uranus in the seventh disposed of by Mars in the sixth. They will take unusual steps to control the women, often violent and dangerous actions. The first house ruler, Mercury, trine the node tells me that Maricela is exactly the kind of woman they are looking for. This is probably why she was stalked.

This chart is from an earlier hour but it clearly shows us her abductor. Again, you can see here the seventh house ruler, Uranus, in the ninth which describes most likely a foreigner who has been in trouble with the law and has violent tendencies. Also probably a drug dependency. The tenth house ruler angular in the seventh with Neptune tells me this behavior is related to his "career" or business. He does this to get money for drugs. He may not be the actual movie maker or trafficker and his role may be simply to bring them women.

Uranus in Aries describes someone tall and thin with an unusual appearance, perhaps a mark on the face. Uranus square the Sun tells me he is not someone Maricela would have been attracted to, in fact, he may be frightening to her. Uranus trine Saturn in the fourth shows that his residence (if you can call it that) is run down, dirty and old and may even be a homeless camp because it appears to be outdoors. This person probably hangs around places like the Goodwill because these charities give services and aid to people who are struggling. This person is struggling. Also, another marker is the tenth house ruler, Venus, together with Neptune in Pisces in the seventh house...this may give us more clues about the location and appearance of this "home". There are other people living there, perhaps also drug users, so this may be a crack house or communal home of some sort. It may even be a shelter. Pluto in Capricorn ruling the fourth with Saturn in the fourth, look for a place that is very run down, old and shabby and maybe even near a swampy area with lots of insect activity.

This person is connected with others, either involved in the same activity or not and it is very possible that anyone aware of what he is doing may share it with other people. In this manner, he may eventually be caught.

There are no markers at this time showing Maricela to be dead. This does not mean she will not be killed in the future but, at the time of these charts, she was still alive. There are also no markers indicating that she will not be found so there is a good chance that she will come to light, dead or alive, in the future.

Anna Christian Waters

Young Girl Disappears From Front Yard

From Wikipedia:

On January 16, 1973, Anna returned home from kindergarten by school bus at about 12:20 pm. Earlier that day, some family friends came for a visit. After coming home, Anna put on a pair of jeans, a blue and white striped T-shirt, oversized black rubber boots and a red coat. At about 1:30 pm, Anna went inside and took off the red coat. At approx. 2:00 pm, Benedict heard Anna talking outside, possibly to the family cats. However, between 2:15 and 2:20 pm, Benedict no longer heard Anna making any sounds. The family dog, Saturn, was a puppy and didn't always bark at strangers, so Benedict wasn't alarmed by anything of the sort. At 2:20, Benedict and Ford went outside to search for Anna. At 2:45, after having found nothing, the San Mateo police department was called and the official search began.
One original fear was that Anna had simply wandered off and fallen into the nearby Purisima Creek and drowned. It had been raining that day and the creek was in flooding state. Benedict stated that she somehow felt that the Creek was a danger for the family. Divers searched the waters and the area was thoroughly searched for four days. No trace of Anna was found. Family friend Doug French has been active in the search for Anna and he believes that the Purisima Creek had nothing to do with the disappearance. The Half Moon Bay Review published an article on January 25 and called the search for Anna "the greatest search in coastside history". The article also implied that Anna had indeed fallen into the Creek and drowned.
Both Anna's family and Doug French have felt that Anna's birth father and his friend are strongly involved with Anna's disappearance. "Brody" is described as manipulative over Anna's father, having allegedly caused the divorce between him and Benedict. "Brody" was interested in Anna and believed her to be the reincarnation of a woman he had once lived with. He tried to make Benedict change her daughter's name to "Eifee". The word had no meaning. "Brody" simply wanted to do this so, numerologically, Anna's name would add up to his own name. A young man and an old man were seen in the vicinity the day Anna disappeared. A spokesman from the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children has said that Anna may well still be alive. Officially the case is considered a "probable non-family abduction". "Brody" died of cancer in December 1981 and a short time later Waters, who had signed Brody's death certificate, was also found dead.
On March 26, 2006, at approx. midnight, a passer-by found a part of a child's skull (zygoma, maxilla and teeth) on a stretch of land between San Gregorio State Beach and Pompino beach. No date was established for the skeletal remains, but the age of the individual was put at 5–7 years. No other part of the skeletal remains were located. After a very long delay, DNA evidence proved that the skeletal remains were not those of Anna, but rather belonged to an unidentified young boy. Waters has since been excluded as the identity of the Doña Ana County Jane Doe.
================================
This is an interesting case. Although I look at many every week, most don't have viable charts or do not render information. Some I work on for months and months before something comes together. This one just jumped out at me so I did it right away. You will see this for yourself when I show you the charts.
This little girl was last known to be on the porch of her home with her dog. She just disappeared from that location with her parents still in the home, which is a rare occurrence and hard for many to imagine. But not so impossible if the abductors were people the child knew and got the child to come to them, such as parking in the street and calling the child over. The chart I ran first was for the time she was last seen.


In this chart, the first thing to stand out is the stellium in the eighth house. The eighth house is never a good place in a forensic chart. It often points to death. But here you can see the implications. The first house ruler is Mercury, the traditional ruler of children, and it is in the eighth house. The child goes, on her own, to someone, this person represented by Jupiter, the seventh house ruler, in the eighth. We know that this is a marker for a criminal, someone who runs afoul of civilized society. Notice how close Mercury and Jupiter come together in the eighth. Also note how close the node falls to these planets, indicating an advance plan or scheme. They had planned to come and get this child. I say they because there are other planets present that indicate accomplices. 

The Sun, the fourth house ruler, sits closely aligned with Jupiter, which indicates that this criminal had either been in the child's home (fourth house) or lived in the near neighborhood. There is familiarity here or there would be no node. The tenth house ruler, Uranus, in the fifth is disposed of by Venus, also in the eighth. This person owns the home to which they are taking this girl and the fifth house indicates they have other children there or have taken children there in the past. hate to say this but there is a chance that the criminal who took Anna was related to the family in some manner. 

This chart is close to the time that the parents claim to have lost track of the child. It may be, of course, that the people who took her actually came onto the porch and this is whom they heard her talking to. The Moon in the first house indicates that Anna went willingly, so it is assumed that this was someone she knew and trusted. 

This chart has the first dark omens. Notice that Pluto has entered the fourth house while Saturn has moved into the twelfth. Pluto is square the Moon in the first. The first and seventh house rulers are still in the eighth house with the node. The tenth house ruler, Neptune, is in the sixth with Mars. They have taken Anna to a workshop of some sort with a hidden place to hide her. This may be an actual workshop where someone earns a living or it may be a workshop in the home. Mars and Pluto insinuate violence and the eighth house shows criminal activity, often sexual in nature. 

Saturn, the eighth house ruler, is in the twelfth in Gemini, disposed of by the child ruler, Mercury, in the eighth. UGH. 

I hate to think of children being brutalized but this chart is suggesting this strongly. She was probably raped before she was killed. I have no doubt, however, that she is either no longer alive or she is being sold for sex. The 1970s brought the advent of snuff films and the widespread popularity of porn. Hustler magazine was a leader in the pictorial of abuse. Child porn, especially with pretty little girls, was just becoming a big business. There is every possibility that Anna was groomed and then used this way. She may still be alive and not even know who she was. 

This is a likely scenario when you look at this developing chart pattern. Mercury is in the seventh, showing the child to be in possession of other people and with the Moon in the twelfth, she is hidden away or even drugged and unconscious. Notice Saturn in the twelfth, which is often a marker for burial, but it is retrograde, showing, that if she will die, which she probably will, it won't be for awhile. The violence in this chart scares me. She is put through it but not killed, which is a marker for sex slavery. Notice the tenth house ruler, Neptune, in the sixth. They may well make a living with pictures or movies, most likely pornographic. 

Mercury ruling the fourth indicates more than one location or, at least, a location with several "extra" areas such as a home with a basement, a shed or an attic, which are used separately. Moon in Cancer in the twelfth indicates that Anna was kept in a home with a family appearance so that the neighbors would think the kids belonged there. Also, Mercury ruling the fourth indicates the presence of more than one child. I now have concern for other missing kids from the same area during the same time period. This could be another captive situation with numbers of children being abducted and abused.
As I said when reading the first chart, these are people the child knew, was talking to and left with willingly. I do not see the child being forced as the ruler in the first always shows the direction of the victim. I do not see a death pattern in these charts and not in the charts that I drew up for later that day. I believe she was kept alive for awhile, at least. 

These charts just don't change which leads me to believe that she was brought into a situation for a purpose and was kept alive for that purpose. She may still be alive but I cannot say where because she may well have been moved from this first location at any time after the abduction.

For consideration, the person who took her knew her. He is described as a fat older man with weathered features. Rugged and hard scrabble, always in need of money. This man is low on morals and has a cold, inconsiderate nature. Jupiter near the Sun indicates he is also a father and has children, probably boys. He has a criminal history and has spent time in jail. He is very hard to talk to. He is connected, in some manner, to the family and if they consider this description, they should know who this is.

CINDY LEE MELLIN

YOUNG LADY DISAPPEARS INTO THIN AIR

From Unsolved Cindy Lee Mellin :


Cindy Lee Mellin, a sales clerk at Broadway Department Store in the Buenaventura Shopping Center, had just finished her closing shift on the night of January 20, 1970.


She was last seen standing next to her car in the shopping center parking lot with an unidentified white male changing her tire.  The man drove a light colored vehicle.


At approximately 10:30pm, two of Mellin's co-workers, who had been picked up by their husbands, drove by Mellin's car and noticed the unidentified man jacking up her vehicle.


After having coffee at a nearby restaurant, they drove by her car again, but no one was there.  Having assumed the man was Cindy's father, the co-workers thought nothing of it and left.  They would later describe the unidentified man as tall and slim, between 30-40 years old.


At 4:45am, Mellin's father, Leonard Mellin, woke up and saw that his daughter's car was not in the driveway.  He then rushed to her room and noticed she never came home the night before.


Her father then went to the shopping center to look for her and found her car still up on the bumper jack with the flat tire still attached.  The spare tire was lying on the ground nearby.  The doors, trunk and glove compartment were open.


Leonard Mellin, Cindy's father, observed that the flat tire appeared to have been deliberately punctured with a knife, which left a large slit on one side.


There was no sign of Mellin at the scene and she has never been heard from again.


She was last seen wearing a navy blue dress with red buttons, a brown corduroy three-quarter length coat, blue shoes with gold buckles, a gold ring set with a single pearl and a red hair ribbon.


She is missing under suspicious circumstances and her case remains unsolved.  Both her parents have since passed away.

Another cold case from the 1970s. It seems like the 70s was a dangerous decade with so many serial killers and so many unsolved cases.  It was a "swinging" time as I remember with Womens liberation making women more brave and open.  Hitchhiking was also popular, as if nothing bad could happen to you when you got into a strangers car.  It was also a far more innocent time than today because we did not have the news coverage, the media interest and the internet.  Today, I hear about a murder a minute it seems.   But not so many of them go unsolved I must add.  Anyways, I have several of these cold cases that I will be analyzing here on the blog this month.  In this particular case, we know Cindy was last seen with a man at 10:30 pm on the side of the road.  Let's see what the charts have to say about what happened to Cindy Lee Mellin.

The preeminent marker in this chart is no doubt the Moon.  It is always the co ruler of any forensic chart but here it rules the midheaven (10th house cusp), is angular in the tenth house and disposes of itself (in dignity).  Because of these aspects, the Moon is a powerful indicator in this chart.  It is in the tenth house and this shows us Cindy out in the open, in public, where she could be seen by others.  We know this much is true because reports have witnesses spotting her at that time.  She is standing along a highway.  We know that she had something happen to her car, reportedly a blown out tire, and we can see that the last aspect the Moon left is an opposition to Mercury, which rules travel and vehicles.  Mercury, in turn, rules the ninth house and this tells us it happened on a highway.  Now, we know she is with a man who is supposedly helping her.  We see that the seventh house ruler is Mars in Pisces and it is in the sixth house.  This is the house of service so we would think he was doing her a service.  But notice that Mars is disposed of by Neptune, which is in the second house.  He may have done this sort of thing for a living and was hoping to get paid for changing her tire?  Is everyone sure she did not call a service station and had this person come out?  Perhaps she did but none the less the tire was never fixed because it was discovered, still up on jacks still with a flat tire hours after she was reported missing.


Other planets in this chart give us more to the story.  The first house ruler, her marker, is in the fourth house.  We know she is not at home but this indicator can mean she is close to home or, at the least, in her own neighborhood.  Mercury is there with Venus and since she is not with children, indeed, did not have children, then we can assume that Mercury is showing us her vehicle.  She is with her vehicle.  This fits with the known facts.  Notice that Venus is right close to the Sun, what is called "under the sun's beams" and take note that traditional readings will say that Cindy is in danger.  I have seen forensic charts with the markers under the Sun's beams and nothing untoward happened... but I have also seen those where it appeared and violence was the result.  This is one marker you should consider but not take for granted.  So it may mean she is in danger.

Another marker that stands out for me is Uranus right at the first house cusp.  This is a stronger influence over Cindy than the placement of Venus.  It has the quality of creating surprise events, things that just come out of the blue.  Uranus is in Libra and disposed of by Venus so it is a strong influence over this event.  It indicates that something untoward occurred and it seemed to revolve around the girl. There is a good chance she did something out of character and it cost her.


Going back to the man who helped her.  The seventh house ruler, Mars, is in the second house, as I already pointed out.  It makes me think he expected something in return for the fixing of her tire.  Of course, we know that he did not fix the tire but somehow she had gotten into his car and left with him.  This is what we suspect at this point.  The next few charts will tell us if that is true.  We know she was headed home and wasn't far from home, by the placement of her marker in the fourth.  The Moon in the tenth also tells us that she had no plans other than what she was known to be doing.. fixing the tire and heading home.  But Uranus also tells us that lightning struck somehow and the whole picture changed... drastically.

An hour later, the next chart shows, the Moon is now in the ninth house.  Not only is she still on a highway but she is now in someone else's car.  This bears out our suspicions and shows us what happened at that point.  Since Mars has not changed position, I would assume this was the same man who was supposedly helping her with the tire.  Another configuration arises in this chart and supports the theory from the previous chart.  The man's marker is disposed of by Neptune in Pisces in the second house.  This is the position that made me think he expected something.  Well, notice here that Neptune is disposed of by Jupiter, which is fast approaching the first house cusp.  Jupiter is disposed of by Mars, which is his marker.  So his purpose, again, seems to be to get "paid" in some manner for helping her.  Jupiter in the first, disposed of by Mars, shows this man commandeering this girl.  He has taken charge.  Venus is conjunct the Sun now within a few minutes of exact.  And both Venus and the Sun are disposed of by wayward Uranus now in the twelfth house.  Uranus and Venus, in fact, are now in mutual reception.  This clearly shows this man snatching her, by surprise, shocking her and forcing her into his car.  Jupiter is also disposed of by Pluto which is in the sign Virgo and disposed of by Mercury (the car).  She is in his vehicle, clearly, and not because she wants to be.  So we now know that Cindy was kidnapped.


The next few charts, I fear, are not going to be pretty.  In these cases, they hardly ever are.  I am waiting for the Moon to move into the eighth house, which should happen in an hour or so.  Also, Pluto opposes Mars from the twelfth house.  This precursors violence coming and when it enters the eleventh house, this could mean a sexual assault.  Perhaps this is the means by which he intends to collect?  He never did fix her tire, but what does that matter?  His true intentions were to kidnap her and have his way with her.

And here it is.  Right in this chart.  Mars has moved into the fifth and Pluto, opposite Mars, is in the eleventh.  There is quite a struggle going on with this assault.  He rapes her but not without a fight.  I see the sexual assault this way- Jupiter is rising at the first house cusp and from there controlling events.  Jupiter is disposed of by Mars and Pluto, which make up the sexual dynamics from the fifth and eleventh houses.  Notice that Venus now rules the seventh house and Mars is on the first?  With that change, Venus moves into the third house.  There is good chance he assaulted her in his vehicle.  Saturn in Taurus (ruler of the third), Venus in Aquarius (placed in the third and ruling the seventh) and Moon in Cancer (ruling the ninth and placed in the ninth) tell us about his vehicle.  These are feminine planets with double emphasis on Venus and the Moon.  So this is not a truck, a work vehicle, like Mars would indicate but most likely a large luxury vehicle.  Taurus indicates luxury and Saturn would indicate an older vehicle.  I am thinking possibly a light blue or silver color.  Venus and Aquarius point to a light blue while the Moon may indicate silver.  So it is likely this man was driving a light blue or silver older luxury vehicle.  I wish witnesses were more clear on what other car was there at that time.  I mean, something other than a "light colored vehicle".  The charts bear that out but it would be nice to know if it was a Cadillac or a Lincoln.


Another point I'd like to make is that there is no aspect between the first and seventh house rulers. This means she did not know this person; it was a complete stranger.  The Moon, as well, does not make or receive any aspects during this period; the closest aspect is a sextile / trine to the Mars - Pluto opposition but this is over 10 degrees away and will not finalize during our analysis.  The Moon has also just passed an opposition with Mercury in Capricorn and is now dexter by 4 degrees.

I am still running charts to see if I can find the death pattern and if there was a death, where the body might be.  The Moon does reach the eighth house in the 2 am chart.  But I am not seeing supporting placements.  So I move on to the 3 am chart and there I find more supporting placements.  The Moon is still in the eighth and it also rules the eighth; the fourth house ruler has moved into the twelfth; the twelfth house ruler is in the fourth.  This is a death pattern.  From the moment of death in the chart Saturn rules the body.  Saturn is in Taurus and in the fifth house.  It is opposite the first house ruler, Jupiter in the eleventh house.  She died during sex and he probably strangled or suffocated her (Saturn in Taurus; Taurus rules the throat).  Her ruler is in the eleventh, showing the sexual connection but his (Mercury) is now in the second.  This money thing has been consistent throughout this chart and leaves me wondering if he didn't want money from her, had planned to rob her, considered sex a payment for some thing or other along these lines.  I see money often in charts where women are stolen for porn or slavery.  But this just looks like a kidnapping, assault and murder.  However, Neptune is known to represent film and movie making so perhaps this was a snuff film.  These rape and murder movies were popular in the 1970s.  But at the time of death, as shown in these charts, I do not see aspects pointing at cameras, film making or movies.


We have a pretty good description of this man, given by eyewitnesses so I am not going to try to read traditional descriptors.  I am not that good at it and the descriptors are too narrow anyways.  But I might be able to tell where he may have taken her body. In the chart for 4 am, you can see that the seventh house ruler is now Mercury in Capricorn and this is in the first house.  Also, Saturn is disposed of by Saturn in Taurus, which describes her body, in the fifth house (cusping the fourth).  This is a strong indicator that he killed her during sex when you consider his marker in her first house, where it seems he was right in front of her, on top of her, somehow in her face and at the same time Saturn in the fifth shows a sexual act.  Saturn as the ruler of the body shows us that she was most likely smothered or strangled (Saturn in Taurus) most likely with his hands (Mercury in Capricorn).  These are earth signs so might we think she was buried somewhere?  Maybe but you have to note that Saturn in Taurus is disposed of by Venus in Aquarius.  Aquarius is a fixed air sign and often describes Uranian things like airports, radio towers, tv stations, runways, air planes or other flying objects, electronics and electrical fixtures.  As an air sign, it often describes things that are up in the air but the fixed nature of the sign brings things closer to the earth.  Libra and Gemini often describe high places such as mountains or tall trees but Aquarius would more commonly describe hills and places with an uneven skyline, such as rugged areas with steppes or buttes.  The secondary rulership of Aquarius by Saturn brings Venus together with Saturn as Saturn is in Taurus and is disposed of by Venus.  So the area where she is buried is most likely attractive in landscaping with flowers and colorful blooms (Venus), standing water like retention ponds or man made fountains (the water bearer, Aquarius).  The area would be small in size (Taurus) and would be inhabited by slow crawling land creatures like turtles, snails, armadillo, porcupine (earth signs).  The area may well have access to a lovely little park or memorial.  Her body would be buried but in somewhat muddy ground, or ground that gets wet and muddy some of the year and may be dry and dusty other times of the year.  Saturn gives age and weathering so the area may have been just as it is for many many years.  There would be no new construction or other development there, at least not at the time in question.  Aquarius has affinity for ground that has been disturbed so there may have been recent plantings or digging going on, but on a small scale.  The fixed signs would indicate that this area has lots of rocks and stones (especially with Capricorn) and is somewhat rugged.  Again, there had been no major fixes or upgrades done to the park, or the memorial, or the area in general.

This man who took her is described by Mars in Pisces.  We have a pretty good description already from eyewitnesses who saw him with Cindy on the side of the road.   He was apparently a tall, slim white man.  His clothes would be clean and his hair would be combed but his car would be full of junk and his home would be a mess.  He is most likely a mechanic by trade, as shown in the first chart.  He is also an artist in his spare time, he does something creative as a hobby, such as painting, music or photography.  I am pretty sure he took pictures of Cindy but I cannot see anywhere in these charts where he filmed this event or used it to make money.  He appears, from the general course of events, to be a man who trolls for women, offers to help them and then kidnaps them if the opportunity arises.  I think the uncharacteristic thing that Cindy did was to agree to go with this man.  He may have told her that he could not fix her tire and would take her to a service station.  Or perhaps he offered to take her home.  However it went, she went into his car with him, not without some cajoling and manipulating by him, but got in there willingly.  When he began to push her around and get rough with her, it was too late.  And I believe, after looking at these charts that the entire event occurred in his car.  She was killed in that car and dumped.  She is somewhere close to home, in an area similar to the one the charts describe, and is buried in muddy ground.

MARY ELIZABETH STUART

Mother and Two Children Missing for 37 Years

Missing 37 Years: Mary, Jessie and Fannie Stuart

ON December 10, 1977, 32 year-old Mary Elizabeth Stuart left her home at 10:00 AM in Honeydew, California with her two daughters, 2 year-old Jessie Flo and 1 year-old Fannie Fawn Stuart to run errands. Mary was headed to a television repair shop in Eureka or Fortuna, California, along with errands to the grocery store and possibly the optometrist. She was driving a red Opel Station Wagon with license plate number 456-AII, and was supposed to be home before dark. Mary and her two daughters were never seen or heard from again.


On January 19, 1978, the family's station wagon was found a few miles from their home on an old logging road.


FROM: Mary Jessie and Fannie :


ON December 10, 1977, 32 year-old Mary Elizabeth Stuart left her home at 10:00 AM in Honeydew, California with her two daughters, 2 year-old Jessie Flo and 1 year-old Fannie Fawn Stuart to run errands. Mary was headed to a television repair shop in Eureka or Fortuna, California, along with errands to the grocery store and possibly the optometrist. She was driving a red Opel Station Wagon with license plate number 456-AII, and was supposed to be home before dark. Mary and her two daughters were never seen or heard from again.


On January 19, 1978, the family's station wagon was found a few miles from their home on an old logging road. Groceries were still in the car, and upon examination it was discovered that the car's gas line had been broken. According to investigators, there was no sign of a struggle or foul play near the vehicle. The discovery of the vehicle did not give many clues as to the trio's whereabouts, but the idea of Mary leaving of her own free will with her daughters seemed even more certain then ever before.


In 1977, Mary weighed 135 pounds and was 5'5" in height. She has brown hair and blue eyes, and may possibly go by the last name of Danckert. Jessie Flo was 2 years-old when she went missing, and had blond hair and hazel eyes. She was 2'8" in height and 26 pounds in 1977. Fannie Fawn was 1 year-old when she vanished, and had red hair and hazel eyes. In 1977, she weighed 20 pounds and was 2'4" in height.


At the time of their disappearances, Mary was living in Honeydew, California with Byron McCray Stuart, who was her husband and the father of Jessie and Fannie. However, he would not be the one to report the girls and Mary missing, even though he should have noticed that they never returned home for the evening. Instead, one of Mary's friends reported that the three were nowhere to be found, and filed a missing persons report the following Tuesday. On the following Friday, 25 volunteers would comb through Windy Nipn Panther Gap, Bull Creek, Honeydew and up by Ferndale. The four-wheel drive club, mounted posse and Marine posse would also join the search that would turn up nothing. It would be a month later until the next clue, Mary's red Station Wagon, would turn up off of an old logging road close to her home.


From the start, Mary's husband, Byron Stuart, would be the prime suspect in the investigation. He had a history of violence and was described as having no problem starting fights due to his very hot temper. His failure to report his daughters and his wife missing was also a red flag. However, back in 1977, authorities did not have enough evidence to prosecute him in the presumed murders of Mary, Jessie and Fannie. Sadly, they would never get the chance to bring him to justice. In 1991, Byron was diagnosed with AIDS. In 1996, he would succumb to Hepatitis, taking with him to the grave the answers to what really happened that day to his beautiful family.


In 2009, the case was reopened, and police mentioned they believed Mary, Jessie and Fannie are deceased. Their prime suspect was still Byron Stuart. This time, they were able to interview people with information that they did not get to decades back. Despite not being able to bring Byron to justice, they believe there are other individuals who were involved with the disappearances of Mary, Jessie and Fannie. They made a plea to the public for anyone with even the smallest shred of information to come forward. Their main focus is to find the burial site, which they believe is in the Honeydew, Panther Gap or Petrolia areas. They also want to find closure for Mary's daughter from a previous marriage, who wants to know what happened to her mother and sisters that day.


This is a case that seems pretty cut and dry. Given Byron's history of violence, he seems capable of committing this crime. Byron also knew Mary's destinations for the day, so it would have not been to difficult to cut the gas line to the station wagon in the parking lot while she was grocery shopping. Also, why did he not report his wife and daughters missing when they failed to be home by that evening? Wouldn't he have been worried about them? My question is, was Mary thinking of leaving him? Did the violence and fighting escalate to the point she was fearful for her safety and that of her children? Byron did not seem like the type of guy who would be too happy about having to split his assets, not have custody of his children and possibly the responsibility to pay child support. If this was the case, it would be a great motive. Other questions I wondered about are where was he that day? Since he is the prime suspect as of 2009, it's doubtful he has a dependable alibi. If others were involved, who would have helped him commit such a horrific crime? Were his closest friends and family interviewed? Was Byron into drugs or the world of crime that drugs bring? Was he an alcoholic? If he committed this crime, there has to have been someone out there he mentioned it to. Perhaps they are too scared to come forward because they think they will get in trouble for having information all along, but it is the right thing to do!


***************************


This is one of many cold cases I found online that have few facts, if any.  In fact, the media coverage on these cases was very limited in the 1970s and since they have gone stone cold, the coverage in recent years is scant.  No new information on these cases because there was no DNA testing at the time and in some cases there were no witnesses.  This is one case where there were no witnesses and the victims have never been found.  In this case, most people believe her husband did it and got away with it.  Will the charts tell the same story?

The first thing I do is check the charts for viability.  For some reason unknown to me, some of them aren't.  Of course, I can't even think about doing a chart without a timeline.  I questioned this timeline from the very beginning because it was given by her husband, who was their prime suspect.  Let's say she was dead already and he just told them this story?  It has happened before, think of Susan Powell.  So I ran the first chart and studied it to figure out if it was viable and the timeline was correct.  I think it is and I'll tell you why.  They say she had a red Opal Station Wagon, right?  Well, looking at the third house ruler, it is Mars and this points to the color red.  They also report that she left to do errands and brought the kids.  Well, the first house ruler, Saturn, is disposed of by Mercury, showing her to be with her kids.  Also, Mercury rules little things like errands, especially things like getting your appliances serviced and going to the eye doctor.  And although this is not the strongest indicators I've ever seen, I went with viability and finished the analysis.


The thing about this first chart is that Mercury is in the twelfth.  Also looking at the car, the red car mentioned in the report, I see that there are no planets in the third so I am not sure she is actually in it.  But Mars is in the seventh, disposed of by the Sun in the eleventh and I do believe she was headed to a friends house, regardless of what she told her husband.  Errands  may have been for later.  Noticing that Saturn and Mercury are in mutual reception, I do believe that this came to pass.  Her purpose was to hide the children.  She left that house with those kids to leave them with a friend.  Notice that the Moon is in the eleventh house, showing us a friend.  Also there is the Sun, which disposes of Mars and Mars is the marker for the car.  So she drove that car to a friends house.  That's how I see it.  And since Mercury is in the twelfth, she was doing this to hide the kids.  Perhaps she was afraid her husband would harm them.  Reports claim that he was capable of that and she could have been afraid.  Or this could have been her usual babysitter.  Just leaving the kids so she can get her errands done.


There is no death pattern in this chart so I would assume she was still alive.   Also, the fourth house ruler is in the tenth, showing her current location to be away from her home, most likely someone else's home.  Moon as the ruler of this other person may indicate a family member.  So the kids may have been spirited off by a family member and kept safe all these years.  This would be a lovely thought. In this next chart, the planets support that theory.

An hour later the charts show us Mary on the road.  At the same time, Mercury is settled in the eleventh, showing us the children in the  hands of her friend.  The first house ruler is now Uranus and you can see it placed in the ninth house.  The ninth house can be many things and among them is a highway.  Also, the woods or a wooded area.  Now, we know her car was found much later on in the woods near a logging road.  But we also  know that if she went about running errands as she said was going to, then she would be on a highway  or in a public parking lot.  The ninth house is often a parking lot (or a car lot on the other hand).  Notice that the Moon is in the tenth with the seventh house ruler, the Sun.  The Sun and Moon are closely conjoined by less than a degree.  Both planets are disposed of by Jupiter in the fifth.  Did someone go with her while she shopped or did she run into someone there?  The fifth house rules pleasure so she was in a public place shopping for something she wanted and this could be clothes, perfume, toys for the kids or a treat like cake or cookies.  She could have been in the grocery store or it could have been a toy store.  The Moon in the tenth makes a case for groceries.  So it looks like she made it to the store.  But it also looks like someone ran into her there and it may have been in the parking lot.


Uranus is disposed of by Pluto in the eighth.  Pluto is conjoined the node, which indicates planning.  She may have been shopping with a credit card, which was planned because she did not have cash (the second house is empty).  But this could also be something more sinister so we need to keep our eye on this position.

The first house ruler is now Neptune and we can see it there in the ninth house.  She is still on a highway, in the woods or in a parking lot.  Neptune is with Venus and Venus rules both the third and eighth houses.  It looks like she might already have  a problem with the car.  Mercury rules the seventh and it is in the eleventh, cusping into the tenth, so it looks like someone is coming to help her.  The charts do not show her calling anyone but it just seems someone comes along and tries to help her.  Mercury indicates this is a young person, most likely younger than Mary, but one with handy skills.  Mercury is disposed of by Saturn and also in mutual reception with Saturn so this person will arrive with good intentions.  The Moon, along with the first house ruler, in the ninth house does show her still in the parking lot. This is where she meets this other person, this younger person, who tries to help her.  It looks like this person may have been successful.  Notice that Mercury is disposed of by Saturn in the sixth house so this younger person has mechanical skills and may actually work at a job as a mechanic or someone who does mechanical work.  I say this because Mercury also rules the third house, a house that describes vehicles.


I do not see her children in this chart or in any other at this point or later.  Does this mean the children are safe?  They were left with a friend who has hidden them since? Perhaps this friend or babysitter feared the father would get custody of the kids and hurt them in some way?  It seems that everybody believed he was violent and dangerous and the idea that the children have been kept from him is not unrealistic.  Anyways, the kids are not present in this chart; Mercury is describing somebody else.  And then looking at the fifth house and it's ruler, we see that it is the Moon, which is often a marker for the mother.  The Moon is right at the midheaven in the ninth house, showing her children to be in someone else's home.  The Moon is disposed of by  Jupiter in the fourth house so this other person's home is very near Mary's own home, in the same neighborhood, in fact.

Mary had a lot of good luck this day, including this young person with mechanical handy skills that helped her with the car.  In fact, this person fixed it well enough for her to get back in it and drive.  This is shown by the Moon in the tenth disposed of by Jupiter with Jupiter entering the third house.  The Moon and Jupiter are in mutual reception so this in fact did happen and she was able to drive it away.  But if you are astute and study the chart as a whole you will readily see the problem with the seventh house.  The seventh house ruler is now Venus and this planet is sliding into the eighth.  What does this mean?  This means that the next person Mary will meet will be a violent criminal.  This is supported by the presence of Pluto and the node in the seventh house.  This is a violent person who lives a seedy, criminal lifestyle and has been violent in the past (the node with Pluto).  The first house ruler at this time is Mars and it is in the fifth, showing us that Mary was trying to get back to her kids.  She was trying to go get them or check on them.


The charts are moving swiftly in this case, it seems that sidereal time was fast at that time of year as the first house cusp changes the ruler almost every hour.  This has something to do with the vernal equinox and I think everything is shorter and faster in the dark of winter.  I have to keep posting more charts to show how the picture keeps changing.  Every little event in this case has a bearing on the outcome.

It looks like her car has another problem at this point.  You can see that the third house ruler is Mercury (showing us her car) and it is in the ninth house.  In turn, it is disposed of by Saturn.  To me, this looks like the car is parked again, either in another parking lot or in the woods or along a major highway.  I am not sure which at this point and I am not sure it matters because the car wasn't found for over a month and for all we know the killer was using it.  Mercury in Capricorn doesn't help us figure out where she parked it because Capricorn can indicate businesses and government buildings, which would point to a public parking lot but it can also rule wood and other earth materials because it is an earth sign.  It is disposed of by Saturn in Virgo, another earth sign, but also a sign ruled by Mercury, which can indicate cars again.  Mercury can mean another parking lot.  So I just cannot tear this one apart.  All I know for sure is that after the young person fixed her car, it broke down again and was parked somewhere at 2 pm.


And then here comes a brazen criminal and somehow she gets involved with him.  Venus is not only in the eighth but so is the twelfth house ruler, Neptune, and the Moon, Mary's secondary marker.  With Pluto in the seventh, this does not look good for Mary.  But I am still not able to tell you whether this was her husband or a stranger.  Her husband had a violent temper and could easily have been in trouble before, even though I have no proof of that.  Also, it would be important if he had a physical job that required a degree of violence, such as being a boxer, a police officer, a soldier, a security guard, a bouncer, a bodyguard, etc.. This chart shows that some degree of violence was involved in the job her murderer had.  This is shown clearly by Pluto, which disposes of the seventh house ruler in the sixth.  Mars, a secondary ruler of the seventh house, is in the fourth house.  This is a serious placement that indicates either that her killer lived in the same house with her (which would be her husband) or went to her home after killing her for some reason.  If there wasn't a break in or other appearance of an unwanted third party, then indicators point at the husband.


Perhaps he was angry when he realized she had put the kids somewhere?  I still do not see the children dead or in danger in these charts.  What I believe is the husband went back home to look for the kids, as shown by Mars disposed of by the Sun while the Sun rules the fifth.


I believe he shot Mary during an argument, maybe about the kids.  She had hidden them somewhere, handed them off to a friend, and he was irate.  Pluto shows a level of anger that is dangerous and is a marker for violence.  Pluto disposed of by Venus and Venus rules the first, it certainly looks like a violent death for Mary.  I say he shot her because Mars rules him and Mars shows guns but also all the planets in the eighth house in Sagittarius while Sagittarius describes ammunition.  It also shows bows and arrows but who uses a bow and arrow for killing people?  Some hunters use them hunt deer but I have hardly ever heard of a murder with a bow and arrow.  Because Sagittarius describes ammunition clearly and mostly bullets in any case, I am pretty sure he shot her.   Mars in Leo disposed of by the Sun in Sagittarius in the eighth, I think he shot her in the chest area and probably hit her heart.

After accepting a death pattern as an indicator of death (Mars in the fourth, Venus and the Moon in the eighth, the twelfth house ruler in the eighth and the fourth house ruler in the eighth) the chart then changes.  Saturn takes over rulership of the body, which is no longer alive and will eventually be nothing but bones.  So we follow Saturn and try to connect it to the seventh house ruler to discover the movements of the killer with the body after death.  And we want to locate that body if we can.


I realize there are a lot of fire sign markers in this chart and at first blush it seems that the body must have been burned.  But I do not believe he did burn the body at all.  Saturn is in the sign Virgo, disposed of by Mercury in Capricorn in the eighth house, which shows us again that the body is dead.  But these are earth signs that show burial and Capricorn is a descriptor for a grave, even in traditional Astrology.  At the same time, the seventh house ruler, Mars, is in the fourth house along with Saturn, which marks the body.  I think he took her back home, maybe hid her for awhile and then buried her. This may be why he did not report her missing; he needed time to dig the hole.  Notice that Saturn is right at the cusp of the fourth and fifth houses.  This cusp shows the bedroom, the bedroom window, an area near to the back door in the backyard, or a door from the bedroom to the back yard.  I believe he buried her right there on the home property, not far from the back door of the house.  Nobody ever searched there from what I understand and he has since died of AIDs.  Her body appears to right there, buried fairly deeply, behind the house.


Also, I still do not see the kids or a death pattern involving the kids.  It would seem they were left with the friend who has since hidden them from their father.  There is a good chance they are still alive and possibly living with different names and different parents.
