You're Shocked?

You're shocked? Did you forget Uranus was in play here? The planet of sudden and unexpected action, bolts out of the blue? Well, this bolt out of the blue said "not guilty."

 Judge Perry called Americans back to their TV sets and everyone back into the courtroom at 2:15 pm on Tuesday, July 5.

At that moment, the Moon, representative of our emotions, was in 10 degrees of Virgo transiting the USA's ninth house. The ninth house represents legal matters. Ironically, Virgo represents fact-finding as well as being methodical and discriminating.

The feminine Moon was in a mocking, strong square to the USA natal Uranus making our emotions subject to abrupt changes as well as indicating that issues with a significant female figure may suddenly change. The Moon was also in a strong square to the USA ascendant, making us aware of our limitations.

While some could say the limitations pointed to the inadequacies of our justice system, in reality they pointed to the inability of determining the facts of this case. As Juror #3 told ABC news, "If you cannot prove what the crime was, you cannot determine what the punishment should be."

It also points to the difficult bar set by the concept of "beyond a reasonable doubt." Juror #3 was quoted as saying, "There was not enough evidence. Everyone wonders why we didn't speak to the media right away. It was because we were sick to our stomach to get that verdict. We were crying and not just the women."

I've found a few references to Casey Anthony's birth information on line and have created a birth chart. If the data is correct, and there are compelling indications it could be, it is interesting to note that Jupiter, the benefic planet of good fortune, is transiting her ninth house of legal matters.
