Details of Disappearance

Christopher was last seen at the /Martin Luther King Jr. Towers/playground located at 113th Street and Lenox Avenue in Harlem in the New York borough of Manhattan on May 18, 1989. His mother had been with him in the park and decided to go to the store for food, but she did not have Christopher's stroller with her, so she left him in the care of of several relatives at the park.

When Christopher's mother returned half an hour later, he was gone. The relatives told Christopher's mother that they had seen him playing with a red ball. Christopher had not brought a red ball to the park and his mother could not find one in the vicinity. It had apparently vanished along with her son. A seven-year-old boy from Christopher's neighborhood told authorities he saw Christopher walking on west 111th Street later in the day. According to the witness, Christopher was accompanied by an unidentified African-American male with braided hair. Christopher has never been seen again.

Christopher's case shares striking similiaries with the disappearance of Shane Walker who disappeared from the same playground in August 1989, three months after Christopher did. Both boys were African-American toddlers and lived in the same apartment building. Both disappeared on the same day of the week (Thursday) at roughly the same time (Shane at 5:00 p.m., Christopher at 7:00 p.m.) In addition, just before his disappearance, Christopher was playing the same two children who were with Shane when he was last seen. Police still aren't sure whether the cases are related, however.

Authorities investigated the possibility that the boys' cases were connected to a black market baby-ring operation and that the infant Andre who was abducted from Brooklyn in March 1989, was possibly another victim. All of the children are African-American. The three cases remain unsolved and it is unclear what happened to any of the missing children.

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

I can't resist cases that involve small children. Although this is stone cold and there is the general belief that he was taken by the same person or persons who took several other children, I still wanted to chart it. Perhaps after doing this one, I will be able to glean something from the other cases that might create a link that would help solve this. When I ran the first chart, I was stunned. It is probably the most glaring chart I've seen in quite awhile. I will show you what I mean as I analyze it. This first chart was drawn for the time he was last seen, 7 pm. Reports of that hour have him walking away with a black man who had his hair in braids. Here, in this chart, you can clearly see that he is, indeed, in the company of someone and the prospects don't look good.

The first thing that popped out at me was a death pattern. It looked to me that the child was already dead and I might have believed it if I hadn't read reports that he was still alive at 7 pm. Of course, reports depend upon the reliability of the person who reported the information. So I pushed past that and tried to read the charts otherwise. I knew, from the beginning, that this child was not with his mother and was basically "on his own". The people who were "caring" for him were not "watching" him or they would never have left him just wander off. In my opinion, their credibility is in serious question here. To be safe, I used Mercury for the child instead of the fifth house ruler. You can see Mercury in the seventh house with other planets. This shows us the child in the company of other people but I am not sure at this point if this is the people who were "watching" him or somebody else. You can see the tenth house ruler, the Sun, and the seventh house ruler, Venus with Mercury. They say he walked away with a single black male but this chart shows at least two people. So which is it?

Another factor that I have to consider is that the tenth house ruler always points to someone adult, probably male and in control of the child, as it usually marks the father. The seventh house ruler is a person who enters the event at some point. The first house ruler, in this instance, must be the people or person who was supposed to "watch" the boy. This is Scorpio, ruled by Pluto and Mars. Pluto is in the twelfth house with the Moon and Mars is in the eighth house, a grouping that often describes a death pattern. Pluto is right with the Moon in the twelfth house and remember that the Moon is always a secondary marker for the subject. Mars as co ruler of the first sitting in the eighth is a descriptor for a criminal. And since Mars is disposed of by the Moon, I feel confident in saying that this person was targeting this boy. The actions of this criminal appear to be directed towards our subject, the two year old child. So this makes me believe that this was not a random act; there was a plot afoot to take this boy. Notice also the node at the nadir in the last degree of Pisces. The fourth house usually rules the home but it also describes the family, the close relatives, the mother in particular. Why is the node in the fourth if the person who took this boy is a stranger? It just doesn't make sense.

Not long after the boy is last seen, here is the chart for the next half hour. As you can see, Mercury remains in the seventh house, meaning he is still in the company of someone else. The Sun has moved off the tenth house cusp and now we see Mercury there, which indicates the second person obvious in the last chart has now moved on. Mercury is close to Venus, which still rules the seventh, so the child is still in the company of that person. But this is only one person, as the witnesses claimed. So perhaps no one ever saw the other person? Or perhaps this other person was one of the babysitters and they let this child go with this man? There was contact there so I am not sure which is what. But the child is still with this other person, Venus in Gemini. The other patterns in the chart are consistant but I am reconsidering my first impressions. Mars rules the first house and it is in the eighth house, commonly a marker for violent death. But in this chart Mars rules the fifth house of children. But the fifth house, combined with the eighth, is a combination that most often describes sexual activity. With Mars or Pluto, it can be construed as rape or assault. Mars is disposed of by the Moon which is a secondary marker for the child. So it is possible that this person raped the boy. Also, the Moon is with Pluto in the twelfth house and the twelfth house is another death house. I will not say that this is not a death pattern, because I believe it is, but it also seems to describe someone in hiding. The twelfth house relates to hidden things as well as confinement and death. So the boy was hidden and probably constrained in some manner. He was also assaulted and perhaps, in the act of this assault, the boy died. I know that it is common belief that the boy was taken and sold into adoption but there are no markers for money in this chart. Money did not change hands and it does not look like the boy changed hands either, at least not before he died. I am sorry the charts say this because I would like nothing more than to say this boy was still alive. But if you credit the charts with the truth, then the boy is most likely deceased.

And here is the thing. The death pattern remains consistant in the charts for 8 pm and 8:30 pm, which shows that the boy is "still dead". And there is one more thing I have to point out. Please notice that the Sun is exactly conjoined to the fixed star grouping, The Pleiades, or "weeping sisters", an omen that portends a situation of great sadness and grieving. It is also within minutes of the fixed star, Miram, which means someone is lying. And also within 3 degrees of Algol, or Caput Algol, the most violent star in the heavens. I do not believe the reports given by the other people and I find them suspect because they allowed this child to walk off with a stranger. Some babysitters. The presence of a violent star like Algol and the Weeping Sisters, as well, is a marker for murder and mayhem. It was present in many famous cases, such as the Gainseville Ripper, Ted Bundy's assault on the Tallahassee dormitory and several of Jeffrey Dahmer's murders. It almost always describes a violent death and if it is also placed in the tenth house, the case will get national attention. In this case, the conjunction occurs around the seventh house cusp, showing us a violent person who kills this boy. At the time of the kidnapping, this conjunction is right at the seventh cusp with the Sun ruling the tenth house. This case got some interest in the news but was mostly a private matter that simply went cold. Because of the tenth house involvement with the death pattern planets, I am suspect of the child's father and wonder why he is never mentioned in this case.

Using whatever resources I have at my disposal I will attempt to describe the person who abducted this child. Venus in Gemini is his marker. Venus is also closely aligned with Mercury and Jupiter, all in the sign Gemini and all in the seventh house. He is involved with a number of people and has an interest in children. I agree with speculators that this person has taken children before and the number of planets in Gemini makes me think he uses kids to get other kids. This child was seen playing with two kids who were also seen playing with another boy who went missing. This makes complete sense. The charts seem to be describing exactly that. And because of that link, I do believe that this case is related to others in the same area. Venus in Gemini describes a person who is fast talking and fast walking; good at handling people, glib, witty and sometimes critical or difficult. There is a soft voice and possible singing ability, fast music such as rapping, using words and good at rhymes. This person is creative and good with his hands. He has hobbies that require dexterity and cleverness; he can be quite a hustler at times. This man walks fast and darts about quickly, he is hard to keep up with. He is good with kids but probably doesn't have any of his own. I do not see specific perversities here so I cannot say if he is the rapist or if he gets these kids for someone else. Venus in Gemini seems to imply more than one person. But all of the planets connected to Venus are disposed of by Mercury, so there is a good chance that he makes a business of these children and that there has been more than one.

I do not believe the boy is still alive. I just do not see money here so it's hard for me to imagine the child was stolen for cash. The only small lead in that direction implicates the child's family. This is shown in the abduction chart (7 pm) where Uranus rules the fourth house (the family) and is sitting in the second (money). I hate to implicate the family in this without more aspects supporting it but there is a very tiny possibility that they sold the child to this man for money. But with Saturn and Neptune also in the second, hugging Uranus, it doesn't look like it was very much money. So that leaves me suspect of this altogether. Who would do this to their child for a small amount of money? In fact, Neptune may show that they were bilked and never paid and Saturn may be saying that the payment was delayed and much smaller than expected. So again I am not going to follow this any further and just say that it's highly unlikely that money played a part in this murder.

Venus in Gemini often describes piano and guitar players, people who use their fingers to create music. It can also describes painters and sketchers, sculptors, writers and tattoo artists. Gemini also rules cars and transportation so this person may drive a cab or delivery vehicle. Gemini also rules tools like scissors and, by relation, hair dressers and dressmakers, especially with Venus in Gemini. So these are all possible public occupations for the man who took this child. He could be driving a cab all day and looking for kids. I think it's interesting that he was described as having dreadlocks; dreadlocks are a very Gemini hairstyle, with the locks looking like fingers. My bet is he was also a smaller man, thin and wirey and quick on his feet. He took that child quickly and hardly anybody noticed as he dashed away; a very Gemini kind of thing to do.

In trying to discover what happened to the child and where the child might be found is done by tracking Saturn. After a death pattern appears and the assumption is made that the subject is dead, Saturn then becomes the marker for the body. This is because Saturn rules the gates to the afterlife and in the human body, it rules the bones. Most bodies are reduced to bones quickly after the spirit leaves. So in these charts we will take a look at Saturn and try to discover what was done with the child's body.

In the charts that follow the death pattern, Saturn is in the sign Capricorn and remains in the second house. The sign Capricorn is an earth sign and the second house is ruled by Taurus, also an earth sign, so it can be assumed that the body is underground. He has been buried. Both Taurus and Capricorn imply dirt. The second house usually concurs with a small area, something like a park or memorial of some sort, but one with small animals. Not the ones with hands like squirrels and raccoons but those that are close to the ground and move slowly. This would include turtles, snails, tortoises, porcupines, armadillos, mollusks, hermit crabs and other land animals that are small in size but have a protective shell. This does not mean scorpions or snakes which are ruled by the eighth house or small furry animals with hands as they are described by the third house. There may be a water source nearby from where the turtles and crabs emerge but it will not be a central focus of the park area. If there is no water source nearby then the kind of animals are more greatly restricted, mainly being tortoises, armadillos, snails and porcupines.

It is in the type of small park that the boy is buried. Since Saturn disposes of itself, is in natural dignity and rules the cusp of the house in question, it has total dominion over the boy and where he ended up after death. But the aspects and placement of Saturn have a great deal of information to offer. Mars is directly opposed to Saturn from the eighth house and then from the seventh house, while ruling the twelfth. The twelfth house rules over the end of life, the process of dieing and the afterlife. It most often describes the final resting place. Mars in opposition is in the sign Cancer, which reintroduces the possibility of a water source nearby. So if there is a park in that area of the city that has a water source nearby it is the place to look. The water source does not have to be deep or large. Cancer rules the crab and crabs are semi aquatic, spending a lot of time in shallow water. So this water source can be anything really from a retention pond to a small lake. But it would not be large enough to house sizeable fish because that terrain belongs under the rulership of Pisces.

Another aspect that influences the analysis is the sextile from Pluto to Saturn as Pluto rules the first house in most of the charts. Pluto's influence over the matter reinforces the probability that the boy was buried because Pluto describes disturbed ground. It also describes areas that are filled with bugs and debris, muck and trash. This area would smell badly and even have a sewer odor about it, perhaps even sewer runoff nearby. Pluto is in natural dignity in the sign Scorpio so it is powerful in this chart but the sextile is not a powerful aspect. So it's influence is somewhat mitigated. So I would think with all these factors, you would be looking for a small park or memorial area with sandy dirt and small crawling animals like turtles. This area should be near a water source and might have some muck or mud, pools of standing water, bugs like mosquitos and flies and a bad smell. It is in this type of area that this boy was buried, probably deeply, most likely in the sand and not the mud. Saturn so close to Neptune and retrograde means the boys body was well hidden and would not surface for years, maybe even decades. Saturns aspect to Pluto and Mars indicates that the body may be revealed when work is done in that area, when the ground is stirred or disturbed. The body may actually be unearthed by an earth moving machine and one can only hope that it doesn't end up in the trash, a common outcome for objects ruled or influenced by Pluto. In that regard, if work has already been done in the area then the search should move to the local landfill. And, of course, as with all retrograde planets, most especially Neptune, it may well be that the body will never be found but continue to be hidden by nature.

Brittany Lynn Locklear

Little Girl Disappears From Bus Stop

From Official Cold Case Investigations :

Raeford -- Hoke County — HOKE COUNTY: Brittany Locklear hadn’t been standing at the bus stop at the end of her driveway outside Raeford, Hoke County, for five minutes before she was abducted. Her mother, Connie, usually waited with her, but on this overcast morning in January, 1998, she went inside for a moment to use the bathroom. When she looked outside her living room window, her 5-year-old daughter was gone. She figured the bus had come until neighbors knocked on her door in a panic.

“They believed Brittany had been kidnapped,” Connie said. “So I got my father-in-law to come and take me to the schoolhouse because I didn’t believe it.” She said she didn’t want to make a fool of herself at the sheriff’s department. When Connie found no sign of her daughter at the school, she called police. A massive manhunt ensued over the next several hours, producing no more than Brittany’s book bag and some of her clothes.

Several neighbors saw it happen from about 200 yards away, and based on their accounts, police began a frantic search for the brown truck they thought the assailant was driving.

Police found Brittany’s naked, lifeless body the next day in a drainage ditch a few miles from her house. She had been raped, and then drowned. Police thought it probably happened shortly after she was taken.

The Hoke County Sheriff’s Office called in the State Bureau of Investigation, and from the outset, the investigation moved at a breakneck pace.

“I know in the first week we got close to somewhere between five and 700 leads,” said SBI Agent Jay Tilley, now retired but one of the original investigators on the case. “We were operating 24 hours a day.”

Investigators canvassed the area, focusing on anyone with a pick-up truck. A year passed without any significant leads.

Frustrated, officials formed a cold case task force around the year anniversary, hoping fresh eyes on the case would lead to the break they needed. They re-interviewed witnesses, and were shocked to find that even the description of the perpetrator’s truck didn’t match from one witness to the next. With little else to go on, they focused on sex offenders in the area and took DNA samples from them. No match.

The sheriff’s department turned their eyes towards Brittany’s family, asking Connie, her husband at the time, Charles, and her father-in-law, James Stevens, to submit to a lie detector test.

They focused on James, and at one point spread pictures of the murdered child before him in the hope he would confess.

FROM: WRAL.com :

After a grueling search through the muddy terrain of a Hoke County wooded area, authorities discovered the body of 5-year-old Brittany Lynn Locklear Thursday afternoon.

Sheriff Wayne Byrd said that the body was found in a drainage pipe, only miles away from the spot where the kindergartner was kidnapped Wednesday morning.

Brittany Lynn Locklear disappeared about 7 a.m. from her home just southwest of Raeford while waiting for the school bus. The Hoke County Sheriff's Department says that the girl was snatched by a man and put into a brown pickup truck with a rack of overhead lights.

Brittany's mother, Connie Chavis, said she had been watching her daughter from inside her home as the child waited at a bus stop about 200 yards away. Just after 7 a.m., Chavis said she went to the bathroom. When she returned, Brittany was gone.

The disappearance has other parents very concerned for the welfare of their own children. Keith Butler says his children will be watching for the bus from inside their home.

Crystal Johnson, the cousin of the missing child, plans to be extra careful herself. Johnson is afraid the same thing that happened to Brittany could happen to her.

Over 300 officers, firefighters, concerned friends and Fort Bragg soldiers turned out Thursday to look for Brittany. Sheriff Byrd says nearly 1,000 more people had contacted his office to volunteer to help. For that, he is appreciative.

Wednesday night, search dogs found Brittany's backpack, along with a pair of overalls and two shoes, in a wooded area on Ryan McBride Road, about three miles away from her home. Thursday, search crews discovered another piece of clothing, possibly belonging to the 3-foot-tall, 35-pound girl.

Thursday morning, authorities conducted a road check near the abduction scene. Sgt. Patrick Brock said they were looking for anyone who may have witnessed anything suspicious the morning Brittany was kidnapped.

Officers searched on land and from the air Wednesday. A Highway Patrol chopper, equipped with infrared technology, took to the air, However, windy weather forced an end to the air search.

When folks heard the tragic news, they responded with shock, sadness, and anger. Elizabeth Craven, a friend of Brittany's family, spoke with WRAL Thursday afternoon. She fought back tears as she talked about Brittany, calling her "the sweetest little child you'd ever want to know."

The girl was waiting for the school bus to take her to West Hoke Elementary, where she was enrolled in kindergarten. Some other students witnessed the abduction. Johnson told WRAL's Mark Roberts what she saw.

Sheriff Byrd told WRAL that he believes that the kidnapping was not a domestic situation. However, Thursday after the body was discovered, Byrd stated in a press conference that his opinion has wavered.

The child's father, who lives in Pembroke, has been interviewed and "checks out."

Deputies say that several children witnessed the kidnapping from down the street. The children gave authorities as much information as they could, saying that a white male jumped out of the truck, grabbed Brittany, took her back into the truck and sped off, heading away from them.

Earlier Thursday, Sheriff Byrd said he was trying to stay optimistic about the search until he had reason to feel otherwise.

The FBI has devised a profile of the killer, and it appears likely that the suspect was watching Thursday search, if not actually involved in it.

At this time, the Hoke County Sheriff's Department has more than 50 leads in the case. Authorities say any new tips would be appreciated. Anyone with information is asked to call the Sheriff's Department at 1-800-842-9111.

“He tried to make me tell him I was the one that hurt that baby,” James said of former Sheriff Jim Davis. “And God knows, I ain’t never hurt no baby.” Five years after the young girl was murdered, an unrelated arrest leads investigators to believe they may have the case solved. A Fort Bragg soldier was taken into custody on a robbery charge; as police were searching his locker, they found pictures of Brittany. There were unconfirmed reports the man participated in the search for the young girl.

Although the man still hasn’t been totally eliminated as a suspect in the eyes of current Sheriff Hubert Peterkin, he said that a closer look at the man led police to believe he likely wasn’t responsible for the girl’s murder.

The sheriff is certain, rather, that the girl was killed by someone who knew her “very well.”

Nine years have passed since Brittany’s murder, and investigators feel no closer to solving the crime than they were in the first few days after it happened. Opinions vary, but a look at the psychology of the murder reveals a chilling predator that terrorizes innocent victims without conscience or self-control. The only thread of hope is that Brittany’s murderer probably was familiar with the area. Maybe one day someone will remember something suspicious and decide to come forward.

“I’ve got this picture of some monster who preys on children,” Agent Tilley said. “It’s not going to be that obvious by looking at him or talking to that person, but deep inside them there’s this monster. And this monster came out when they kidnapped Brittany.”

**********'

These sorts of cold cases really get to me. Not only that the victim is a tiny child but she was snatched not far from her home, in early daylight, in front of witnesses. This means that no child is safe anywhere ever. And that whoever murdered this child has probably done it again and again and is living free. All of this just gets my gut in a knot. I started this blog as a means of extending Astrology through my method of forensics but it has engaged me as an activist for victims. Some of the things I've read and seen online just break my heart.

The most important fact about this case is that the abduction was witnessed by others, some of them neighbors, some of them strangers, so there is no doubt about who did it. This means you don't have to check the charts for the parents. What you need to do here is try to figure out who this person was that took the child. If you look at the first chart I drew, for 7 am, the time at which the child was last seen, you can see that the mother is in the home. Now, these cases are the most difficult because of the dependent nature of children. But in this case the mother and child were separated so I am using the first house for the child and the seventh house for her mother. The Moon is the natural ruler of mothers and also the chart co ruler. You can see it in the fourth house, supporting the mother's claim that she was in the home at the time. Notice that the first house ruler, Saturn, is in the third, showing the child on the roadway. The third house also describes transportation and we know that she was waiting on a bus. We also know that she was taken off in a brown truck. Saturn in Aries would describe a masculine vehicle that is used for work and this certainly applies to a truck. Saturn indicates the color brown. Notice that Saturn is disposed of by Mars, which is rising in the first. To see who it is that came upon the child, look at the Sun. It is right at the first house cusp, showing us the person (presumably male) who presented himself to the child. At the same time, notice that the Moon in Taurus is disposed of by Venus, which rules the fifth house. This shows the mothers' concern for her child at the time. So she was watching, as were others. The large grouping in the first house shows us a number of people who were near the child at the time.

Mars shows us how swift the snatching was. The sign Aquarius is an air sign and adds to the speed. The node in the eighth house disposed of by Mercury, the natural ruler of children, shows us the plan was centered on finding a child and either having sex or killing that child or both. Pluto in the eleventh shows sex or personal contact with an unwilling partner. This is usually a sexual assault. Since Pluto co rules the tenth house, it is describing a strong, violent individual who has no problem overpowering the child. The tenth house is patriarchal and often describes men, although not always. In this case, we already have information that describes a man as the abductor. The tenth house at play here also makes me think that this man may have children of his own. Scary thought.

Charts like these are hard to analyze. Partly because the child is very young and should be ruled by the fifth house but the child is not with the mother, who is elsewhere, setting the child apart on it's own. But the mother is involved, albeit from a distance, and has to be considered. I am not comfortable using the first house ruler alone for the child because she is so young and the mother cannot be the first house occupant because she is not present at the time. So what to do? Use the first house ruler in combination with Mercury for the child and use the Moon for the mother. Now, a problem arises here because the Moon rules the seventh, presumably the abductor, so clouds of confusion settle in and make it even harder to isolate the players. In this first chart, I can see that the Moon is describing the mother because it is in the fourth, showing us someone in the child's home, where we know the mother remained. Saturn rules the first and it is in the third, showing someone in the neighborhood or in a car or waiting for a ride, all of which seem to apply to the child. Mercury is in the twelfth, where it remains hidden from view which describes the child after she was taken. So where the heck is the abductor in this chart? Isolating this marker takes a bit of imagination it seems and I tend to go with the planet closest to the Ascendant, which should describe the person facing the child, coming upon the child, etc.. and since she was taken quickly and the Sun is within seconds of the Ascendant and then moves swiftly into the twelfth, I think this is the closest marker we are going to find. The Sun, in turn, rules the eighth house, which shows us many variations of events, many of which will apply here. Death, sexual assault, a criminal, a secret plot, someone being driven by desire, often desperately. And any planet crossing the Ascendant will be disposed of by the first house ruler, showing this little girl to be the focus of her abductor from the first moment. In this chart you can see a number of planets rising in the first, descriptive of the people standing nearby that witnessed the abduction. But his planet, the Sun, is stretched out ahead of the others, making no aspect to any of them, showing him to be an "outsider" of sorts, someone they did not know, who got away from them quickly.

The Sun is traveling void of course so it makes it difficult to discover it's future path. It makes no aspect to any other planet before leaving the sign Capricorn. But the Moon, swifter in motion, is within a few degrees of a trine to the Sun. In fact, this is the only planet that aspects the Sun in any event. What does this mean? Well, the Moon has proven to represent the mother in this case but it is also the co ruler of the chart by default. The Moon is also in trine aspect to the north node and creates a Grand Trine between all of these planets, the Sun, the Moon and the Node. To me, this looks like things just fell into place for this event, that made it easy for this man to take her. With a trine, circumstances can be so close they seem impossible, such as this person just appearing and the child just being there for a split second and the abduction goes off without a hitch. Not very many things in life happen that smoothly and easily. But if anything can make the impossible possible it is the Grand Trine.

The next few charts I drew up basically show us the mother leaving her home to look for her daughter. This is where the Moon leaves the fourth and moves into the third. Also, we see the authorities get involved when Pluto moves into the tenth while ruling the tenth. We see the Sun move into the twelfth, showing us the abductor going into hiding, getting out of sight. And then, further along, we see the first house ruler become Uranus with Uranus entering the twelfth, showing us the dumping of the body. We know she was found dead so we don't have to work hard at that, trying to find the body. What we want to do here is try to figure out who took her. This is always difficult but I am sure that Sun in Capricorn will lead us to him, especially since the Sun begins to rule the seventh house around the time the charts show us the child's death. Sun in Capricorn in a forensic chart describes an working man with earthly qualities, mainly someone who does physical labor. He may run his own business, since Capricorn is the sign of the CEO. Power seems to play a role in this case, as Pluto rules the midheaven throughout the event and the Sun is a marker for the murderer. In these charts, Saturn represented this little girl and his ruler is disposed of by Saturn, making a case for a child molester. This was not his first abduction. He has an irresistable fetish for little girls. He planned this out carefully and it would seem he had seen her before, perhaps with her mother in some other time and place. This might explain how the Moon (the mother in this case) facilitated his attempt to take the child. The mother is not aware of it, but she had been with the child when they crossed his path. This chart is too tight, too neat and the abduction too opportunistic to not have been planned. I believe he targeted this child and if the mother has memory of exposing her daughter to anyone knew in the past few weeks prior to her kidnapping, she may be able to single him out.

I say this because the Grand Trine which facilitated this event is between his ruler, the Sun, her ruler, the Moon, and the node, which shows the plan or scheme that evolved. When he saw the girl, he began to plan her abduction.

I do not like to use the planets or signs to describe people because the world is so diverse, it cannot be useful. Any attempts to narrow the physical appearance down smacks of profiling and that's not my intent. I know I have used the traditional readings in the past but I have abandoned that. Now, I attempt to describe the person's character, activities, probable interests, etc... So looking at the charts drawn that show the Sun on the seventh cusp, I will try to single some things out.

Pluto rules this man's home so expect to find it in disarray, to say the least. It may have been demolished or destroyed in some manner and may be being renovated. It is likely that he has done some exotic things with the home, such as digging out underground areas or adding terrariums or overpopulating the home with pets like snakes or turtles. Because Pluto is disposed of by Jupiter in Aquarius, there may be a lot of junk in and around the home. He tends to be a hoarder, with a love for old, eccentric and antique items. He may have a collection of old radios or vintage electronics of all kinds.

If you look at the books I compiled, you can see many attributes associated with Capricorn and the Sun. Power is one of the most often indicated. As I said before, power plays an important role in these charts so it must be assumed that power describes the abductor. This may be why this man has never been caught. The Sun, for instance, often indicates kings, rulers, politicians, prominent socialites and people in high office, such as judges, sheriffs, attorney generals, etc... men in positions of power and in the public eye. I will not go so far as to say that this man was a judge, for instance, but I will say that he is in a position of prominence in the local area, or was at that time, and was not looked at, regardless. There was much attention given to a local firefighter who had pictures of the child in his locker. Of course, he may have just taken an interest in the case, being a local hero, wanting to save the child... but then again he may be the killer, erecting a tribute to the child using souvenirs, like many killers do. But the Sun in Capricorn is disposed of by Saturn in Aries and since Aries is a fire sign, it is possible he did do this. The Sun can also indicate better than average athletes, hunters, as well as popular heroes. Was he considered a hero in the local community? That, in itself, could be descriptor enough for this murderer.

But you cannot dismiss the sign Capricorn and the planet Saturn. The abductor had a work truck, according to the charts and the color brown was both reported by witnesses and supported by the planet Saturn. Saturn is at odds with the descriptors for the Sun, describing, on another hand, the day laborer, the poor, the needy and the one who works like a dog for little money. It is a planet of deprivation and desperation. Saturn is in Aries, which can describe desires that are extreme. I think this fits a child molester, a madman who is driven to have sex with little girls, a deviate. And then there's the sign Capricorn, which seems to dovetail more closely with the Sun in it's descriptors. It tends to describe people in government, elected office, at the head of corporations. It is not a sign of servitude, it is a sign of elegance and rulership. Hard work is implied through the ruling planet, Saturn, but the results usually give the subject power and admiration from the public. This is why I think this man was in a position of power in the local community and was not looked at because of this fact, regardless of any work trucks he may have borrowed or owned.

There is an element of cruelty associated with Capricorn; the materialistic person who will sacrifice life and limb for money or success. These can be those that restrict or imprison others, such as those who work in or manage prisons. This also extends to those who are held against their will, people and animals alike. This sign can indicate slaughterhouses and the fur industry. In this same manner, Capricorn can indicate property and property owners, the use of property for financial gain or a job or career in the ownership or taxing of property or possessions. He may work in any of these industries, have hobbies in any of these industries or be known for creating or running a business in any of these industries. But there is no doubt that his man was prominent in the local community, held a powerful or admired office in the region and was not looked at because of that. This child's mother met this man at some time in the past and was with the child at the time. She may have gone to a government office or business location and ran into this man. This is where he saw the child and began his plan to take her.
