To find out you will have to read on.<!--more--><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-family: 'book antiqua', palatino, serif; font-size: 14pt;\">The time finally came that many people were waiting for: On July 2<sup>nd<\/sup> the FBI arrested Ghislaine Maxwell at her home in New Hampshire. Her home\u2026in New Hampshire&#8230;The big question mark in that is why the FBI waited so long to arrest her, and if they were not waiting, how did they not know she was in New Hampshire? OK, we\u2019re getting ahead of ourselves here a bit.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-family: 'book antiqua', palatino, serif; font-size: 14pt;\">So here\u2019s the first real question \u2013 why a story about Maxwell when the US looks headed toward war with China and in the Middle East, and when the COVID pandemic is still rising sharply, and so forth? Well, this isn\u2019t about satisfying some prurient curiosity. Her involvement with Epstein and those activities involved international politics and security interests. That is one big matter that wi<\/span><span style=\"font-family: 'book antiqua', palatino, serif; font-size: 14pt;\">ll interest us here. Never underestimate the power of peccadillos to influence international relations.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-family: 'book antiqua', palatino, serif; font-size: 14pt;\">There are three points we will investigate, with one leading into the next:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul style=\"text-align: justify;\">\n<li><span style=\"font-family: 'book antiqua', palatino, serif; font-size: 14pt;\">Maxwell\u2019s chart and the astrological relations between her and Epstein (a thumbnail sketch)<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-family: 'book antiqua', palatino, serif; font-size: 14pt;\">What their relationship has meant in terms of geopolitics, which relates to blackmail<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-family: 'book antiqua', palatino, serif; font-size: 14pt;\">Will her arrest result in any sort of meaningful prosecution, especially for her victims?<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-family: 'book antiqua', palatino, serif; font-size: 14pt;\">Then, at the last, the question everyone is wondering \u2013 will she \u2018suicide\u2019 in prison before she tells anything? More importantly, will we ever know the truth, and will anyone big be prosecuted? Keep in mind as we go along, that Epstein and Maxwell were small fish in a big, dirty pond. There were people far more influential and powerful, with greater resources at hand, than either of them could have mustered. Yet, their stories and crimes bear investigation, which should go forward for the victims, if nothing else.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-family: 'book antiqua', palatino, serif; font-size: 14pt;\">To start with Maxwell and to give some background, there is an excellent series of investigative articles about the Epstein\/Maxwell relationship by Whitney Webb, which are advisable to read if you have not familiarized yourself with the story from the beginning. That story actually goes back decades in the case of Epstein, and even before, involving powerful figures in government, foreign and domestic, and organized crime.

Ghislaine (ghee LAIN\/LIN) was the youngest of nine children and supposedly her father\u2019s favorite, to the extent that he named his yacht after her \u2013 <em>Lady Ghislaine<\/em> \u2013 from which <span style=\"color: #993300;\"><a style=\"color: #993300;\" href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Robert_Maxwell#Death\">he \u2018fell\u2019 to his death at sea<\/a><\/span>. There has been much speculation that he was \u2018helped\u2019 in his final moments.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-family: 'book antiqua', palatino, serif; font-size: 14pt;\">Ghislaine was <span style=\"color: #993300;\"><a style=\"color: #993300;\" href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Ghislaine_Maxwell\">born into wealth<\/a><\/span>, with the Wikipedia entry listing her as a \u2018socialite\u2019. Her association with Epstein puts an interesting slant on that title. We do actually have an accurate birth time for her, from a birth certificate, which gives us a better opportunity to look at her astrology than we had with <span style=\"color: #993300;\"><a style=\"color: #993300;\" href=\"https:\/\/malvinartley.com\/blog.malvinartley.com\/2019\/08\/15\/epstein-is-he-or-isnt-he-and-how\/\">Epstein<\/a><\/span>.

Aquarius often indicates scads of contacts. That is further reinforced by Jupiter being trine to her Gemini Ascendant, giving her ease of communication, the ability to interact with a wide variety of people and especially her ability to relate to young people. Then we look a little deeper.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-family: 'book antiqua', palatino, serif; font-size: 14pt;\">Her Horizon axis is squared by Pluto from the 5<sup>th<\/sup> house, giving her unusual personal influence, striving for positions of influence, unusual contacts and acquaintances, and in the extreme, the tendency to suppress or to oppress others, as well as the attainment of success in life by brutal and ruthless means. The 5<sup>th<\/sup> house also connects her with children.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-family: 'book antiqua', palatino, serif; font-size: 14pt;\">It is easy to read the negative interpretations into her chart, given the media coverage of her. The same chart could be read differently, if it was the chart of another person, which could also indicate a humanitarian focus in one\u2019s work, using the vehicle of the educational system to motivate the young toward social and progressive causes, and so forth. And she did found the <span style=\"color: #993300;\"><a style=\"color: #993300;\" href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/The_TerraMar_Project\">TerraMar<\/a><\/span> Project, a non-profit dedicated for protection of the world\u2019s oceans. The Project was dissolved last year.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-family: 'book antiqua', palatino, serif; font-size: 14pt;\">Before we get to the midpoints, there is a dissociate stellium, with the Sun, Mercury and Mars in Capricorn, and with Venus in Sagittarius, the Sun linking all of them in the space of 13 degrees, well within orb of the Sun. That stellium gives Maxwell great attractive power, as well as ambition. Mars is exalted in Capricorn and is within 3\u00b0 of the Sun, on the Aries point of Capricorn. Despite appearances, she is not a person to be trifled with, especially with Capricorn Sun. It is a combination that marks her as \u2018<span style=\"color: #993300;\"><a style=\"color: #993300;\" href=\"https:\/\/www.irishtimes.com\/life-and-style\/people\/ghislaine-maxwell-jeffrey-epstein-s-lady-of-the-house-and-madam-1.3963743\">ruling the roost<\/a><\/span>\u2019 at home, and as otherwise a very forceful presence in interpersonal interactions.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-family: 'book antiqua', palatino, serif; font-size: 14pt;\">In all so far, then, we see a person who is highly ambitious, energetic, who knows what she wants and how to get it and has the power to influence people toward her way of thinking in the pursuit of her objectives. However, the Sun\/Moon combination along with the Mars creates a situation wherein misdirection of the passions interferes with ambition and complicates matters through the love life. This goes along with the 5<sup>th<\/sup> house Pluto as well, the 5<sup>th<\/sup> house ruling love affairs, and has been her weak point in an otherwise strong horoscope. That brings up a couple of important midpoints.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-family: 'book antiqua', palatino, serif; font-size: 14pt;\">The first midpoint of note is that of Mer\/Nep=Asc\/Plu, shown next to the Ascendant on the chart. It shows unusual actions originating in the subconscious, combined with \u201cthe tendency to open oneself to the influences coming from other people, the state of being exploited, deceived or harmed by others\u201d, from Ebertin (<em>The Combination of Stellar Influences<\/em>). This midpoint, along with the combination cited in the previous paragraph, shows a distinct tendency to misdirection of energies because of being too easily influenced romantically and exploited by appeals to a glamourous life. Epstein used her to his advantage so long as he had a romantic hold on her and the allure of wealth held her in place.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-family: 'book antiqua', palatino, serif; font-size: 14pt;\">The second midpoint to consider is MC=Sat\/Node: \u201cInhibited development of one&#8217;s own individuality, the state of feeling depressed, standing alone in life. &#8211; Separation from members of the family or from colleagues. &#8211; Mourning or bereavement.\u201d The other midpoints at the MC add to the Jupiter\/MC conjunction listed previously. The Sat\/Node midpoint, though, is important when it comes to her arrest, as well as to her relation with Epstein.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-family: 'book antiqua', palatino, serif; font-size: 14pt;\">At the time of her father\u2019s death (3 Nov 1991), the MC was directed to a square with Maxwell\u2019s Horizon, at the time of her first Saturn return. The family fortune was wiped out due to her father\u2019s fraudulent activities (he had raided his companies\u2019 pension funds and was deeply in debt) and she had to take on a modest apartment rather than living in a mansion. She was, as Ebertin describes, separated from family and colleagues, along with mourning and bereavement. That set her up for her relationship with Epstein, which began very soon after her father\u2019s death, so we are told.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-family: 'book antiqua', palatino, serif; font-size: 14pt;\">As to her relationship with Epstein, it would appear to have been mutually beneficial, at least to them, and also personally enmeshed. The latter is shown in <span style=\"color: #993300;\"><a style=\"color: #993300;\" href=\"http:\/\/malvinartley.com\/PDF%20Files\/charts\/epstein_maxwell_chinese.png\">the Chinese astrology<\/a><\/span>, where there is a syzygy in the Day and Year Masters \u2013 yin metal (Day), Yang water (Year) for Epstein and Yang Water (Day) and yin metal (Year) for Maxwell. They mirrored each other, in other words, between their personal and outer lives. That in itself makes for an interesting study, as the branches (animal signs) involved in those pillars are normally antagonistic. We don&#8217;t have the space to go into it here, but it is suggestive and indicative of tensions in their relationship. Ghislaine was an Ox in the year pillar, denoting her public ambitions, whereas Epstein was a Dragon, denoting his desire for a flamboyant public life. Epstein was elusive privately and gregarious in public, whereas Maxwell was the opposite. And they both had a surfeit of Earth in their Four Pillars, giving them a stubborn persistence, as well as a love of material pursuits.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-family: 'book antiqua', palatino, serif; font-size: 14pt;\">I had read that Epstein controlled Maxwell. Looking at their Western synastry (<span style=\"color: #993300;\"><a style=\"color: #993300;\" href=\"http:\/\/malvinartley.com\/PDF%20Files\/charts\/epstein_maxwell_synastry.png\">chart<\/a><\/span>), the opposite would appear to have been the case. Maxwell\u2019s Saturn is on Epstein\u2019s Sun in the synastry, which is quite a controlling factor in relationships. The Sun person is often under the thumb of the Saturn person, though the extent of which depends on the strengths of the two factors. Epstein was an extremely ambitious Capricorn, even though on the cusp of Aquarius, with Sun square Saturn and the Sun in Capricorn.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-family: 'book antiqua', palatino, serif; font-size: 14pt;\">In fact, both Epstein and Maxwell, both being Capricorns, had ambition strongly marked. Ghislaine\u2019s ambitions are more clearly directed, though, with a natal Sun\/Mars conjunction and with both trine to Uranus and Pluto. Uranus and Pluto are both retrograde in her chart, though, and separated by 10\u00b0, therefore are only \u2018conjunct by sign\u2019 in Virgo.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-family: 'book antiqua', palatino, serif; font-size: 14pt;\">Was there any real love between them, people might ask? Looking at the synastry again, one would initially say no as far as a strong romantic\/sexual attraction, as there are virtually no contacts between personal planets. And we are not certain of the degree of Epstein\u2019s Moon, so we cannot say for certain if the aspects shown are actually true. The only personal contacts, then (the planets though to Jupiter, in the red box), are Epstein\u2019s Venus\/Mars conjunction quincunx to Maxwell\u2019s Moon. There was attraction, for certain, but it goes a little deeper than that.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-family: 'book antiqua', palatino, serif; font-size: 14pt;\">The Magi Society has done copious posting on Chiron, likening it to a planet (It\u2019s a small asteroid, given too much importance in astrology, in my opinion.), indicating that contacts between a person\u2019s Chiron to another\u2019s Venus, Jupiter, Neptune and\/or Pluto constitute what they term a \u2018Cinderella combo\u2019. That denotes intense attraction and what they consider to be one of the strongest indicators of a romantic relationship. Contacts, in this case, for a positive outcome, would be conjunctions, sextiles, trines and quincunxes. We do in fact see that sort of thing between Epstein and Maxwell.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-family: 'book antiqua', palatino, serif; font-size: 14pt;\">Maxwell\u2019s Neptune makes several important contacts to Epstein\u2019s planets \u2013 trines to Epstein\u2019s Venus\/Mars (further \u2018Cinderella\u2019 contacts), a sextile to Chiron, a trine to Uranus, and perhaps one of the more important ones, a square to Epstein\u2019s nodal axis. Maxwell represented a sort of ideal to Epstein, and vice-versa, a kind of \u2018mystical union\u2019 that was difficult for them to shake and had a real hold over them. It also blurred the boundaries of their relationships, too, and that is where the biggest potential for abuse was. We could do a long discourse on the synastry, but this suffices for our purposes.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-family: 'book antiqua', palatino, serif; font-size: 14pt;\">We <span style=\"color: #993300;\"><a style=\"color: #993300;\" href=\"https:\/\/malvinartley.com\/blog.malvinartley.com\/2019\/07\/18\/epstein-and-what-this-means-for-the-us\/\">covered Epstein<\/a><\/span> in two <span style=\"color: #993300;\"><a style=\"color: #993300;\" href=\"https:\/\/malvinartley.com\/blog.malvinartley.com\/2019\/08\/15\/epstein-is-he-or-isnt-he-and-how\/\">previous posts<\/a><\/span>. There is no need to go over him again here. What interests us here is what their relationship produced and why. Being Capricorns (I would go with the last degree of Capricorn for Epstein), they had interests in the lifestyles of the rich and famous and they both gamed those to their advantage. In that regard, some very interesting details begin to emerge.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-family: 'book antiqua', palatino, serif; font-size: 14pt;\">If one has read Whitney Webb\u2019s exposition on Epstein, the circumstantial evidence and testimony by an ex-intelligence operative for Mossad strongly points to him having worked for Mossad, the Israeli secret service. Several high profile figures came to be associated with the couple \u2013 Bill Clinton, Alan Dershowitz, Donald Trump and Prince Andrew. This was in the early \u201800s. There were many more people to be sure, but those four form an interesting perspective on events that are taking place today.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-family: 'book antiqua', palatino, serif; font-size: 14pt;\">In the 1990s, when he was first getting known, it was \u201cThe end of history\u201d \u2013 the Soviet Union was gone, neoliberal economics and globalism took hold of the West, mainstream media in the US became concentrated in the hands of a few companies and was \u2018liberalized\u2019, the neocons came into prominent positions in the US (and those people were strongly Zionist) and financial regulations that had been in place since the days of FDR were finally removed, turbocharging US financialisation of the economy. There was also another phenomenon that began to take hold in the US \u2013 the conspicuous activity of the Zionist lobby in Washington, coupled with the ascendancy of the \u2018religious right\u2019 in American politics, which is also deeply tied to Zionist ambitions.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-family: 'book antiqua', palatino, serif; font-size: 14pt;\">Before some readers might start pointing fingers at perceived anti-Semitic comments to follow, Zionism has little to do with Judaism. It is a political, imperialistic ideology that is aimed at control of West Asia via the Israeli state. It is a construct of the West, and goes under the cover of religion. In fact, it is a system that is used by various factions to promote their interests, most revolving around energy and trade routes. However, we won\u2019t go into that here. There is a religious component, largely related to Christianity, strange as that might sound, but by and large, Zionism is political and is unrelated to the Jewish religion except through fundamentalism.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-family: 'book antiqua', palatino, serif; font-size: 14pt;\">The preceding paragraph thus brings us to a question: Why would the Zionists have become so conspicuous in Washington and the UK from the \u201890s onward, and what would that have to do with the likes of Epstein and Maxwell, if anything? What follows is speculative, with no proof, but it does present a very interesting, if not conspicuous coincidence of events. But before going further, there is as yet no smoking gun that points to either Clinton or Trump being involved in Epstein\u2019s and Maxwell\u2019s activities with underage girls. And as it stands, all of those activities are, by law, still alleged \u2013 guilt by association, in other words, when it comes to the high profile figures seen with Epstein and Maxwell.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-family: 'book antiqua', palatino, serif; font-size: 14pt;\">The association between Epstein and Maxwell was going on before the 1990s, as reported by the ex-Israeli intelligence official mentioned before (see Whitney Webb\u2019s pieces, linked above). Epstein\u2019s original involvement with Mossad was in arms trades, recruited for that through Robert Maxwell, Ghislaine\u2019s father \u2013 as in Iran-Contra dealings during the last Reagan administration. Then Epstein turned to blackmail, allied with Ghislaine Maxwell. The purpose was to compromise influential people and politicians in the US and abroad for advancing Israeli interests, and his own.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-family: 'book antiqua', palatino, serif; font-size: 14pt;\">The Maxwell family has been involved in spying and blackmail for years, <span style=\"color: #993300;\"><a style=\"color: #993300;\" href=\"https:\/\/cryptome.org\/promis-mossad.htm\">starting with Robert Maxwell<\/a><\/span>. <span style=\"color: #993300;\"><a style=\"color: #993300;\" href=\"http:\/\/en.iscslb.org\/?p=1382\">Three of his daughters are also involved<\/a><\/span>. And perhaps the most widespread form of spying has been through the <span style=\"color: #993300;\"><a style=\"color: #993300;\" href=\"https:\/\/www.wired.com\/1993\/01\/inslaw\/\">PROMIS software<\/a><\/span>. And when it comes to that, an operation like Epstein&#8217;s is no longer necessary. It&#8217;s all done via spyware now. PROMIS, combined with the blackmail side, provided a very useful coercive instrument for any intelligence agency. And it was not just the Israelis who were involved. The CIA and FBI also had their fingers in the dirty affairs. Herbert Hoover, for example, was well known for <span style=\"color: #993300;\"><a style=\"color: #993300;\" href=\"https:\/\/www.thedailybeast.com\/fbi-director-hoovers-dirty-files-excerpt-from-ronald-kesslers-the-secrets-of-the-fbi\">his penchant for blackmail<\/a><\/span>, and he was allegedly <span style=\"color: #993300;\"><a style=\"color: #993300;\" href=\"https:\/\/www.latimes.com\/archives\/la-xpm-1993-02-06-mn-1078-story.html\">blackmailed in kind<\/a><\/span>. And we wonder why there are rarely any high level officials held to account for their activities.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-family: 'book antiqua', palatino, serif; font-size: 14pt;\">Epstein\u2019s blackmail operation went on until his first arrest in 2006, at which point Maxwell distanced herself from him. But during the period of their operations, the following events, relative to Israel, were taking place:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul style=\"text-align: justify;\">\n<li><span style=\"font-family: 'book antiqua', palatino, serif; font-size: 14pt;\">The first Gulf War in the Bush I administration.

All efforts thus far have failed.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-family: 'book antiqua', palatino, serif; font-size: 14pt;\">There is a bottom line to the listed events. During the period when Epstein was active the Israelis were becoming more and more insecure and frustrated. They needed influence and support from the US especially, as well as Europe, to advance their agendas in West Asia and to keep their enemies at bay or gone. The Israelis have courted the evangelical Christian movement, the neocons and any sympathetic members of Congress as well as influential people toward the Zionist cause, especially since the Reagan years. Mossad has been the key intelligence gathering arm of the Israeli state. That said, we do not know how much Epstein\u2019s operations contributed to their intelligence, if any.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-family: 'book antiqua', palatino, serif; font-size: 14pt;\">Blackmail is generally aimed at extorting money (Epstein became rich under questionable means), coercing people to act against their wishes to advance the agenda of the blackmailer, and to secure silence or support. It is also used to force people to divulge information they would otherwise keep secret. And prominent people who have been subjected to such blackmail will go to great lengths to keep their secrets from becoming public, even to the extent of offing the blackmailer. In that regard, few people believe that Epstein suicided, though the media continuously parrots that narrative.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-family: 'book antiqua', palatino, serif; font-size: 14pt;\">As to the most prominent figures associated with Epstein \u2013 Clinton, Trump and Prince Andrew \u2013 these three are men known for their weakness when it comes to sexual matters, as in finding it difficult to resist their urges. All three would have been seen as rich sources of information by any intelligence agency.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-family: 'book antiqua', palatino, serif; font-size: 14pt;\">Bill Clinton had no connection to Epstein until after his presidency, but still had strong connections with the government and overseas. Trump has connections with Big Money and was mentored by <span style=\"color: #993300;\"><a style=\"color: #993300;\" href=\"https:\/\/newrepublic.com\/article\/155066\/covering-roy-cohn\">Roy Cohn, one of America\u2019s most notorious attorneys<\/a><\/span>, who also had connections with organized crime and <span style=\"color: #993300;\"><a style=\"color: #993300;\" href=\"https:\/\/www.mintpressnews.com\/blackmail-jeffrey-epstein-trump-mentor-reagan-era\/260760\/\">ran a pedophile ring<\/a><\/span>. As it turns out, Epstein\u2019s activities were small potatoes as a pedophile operation, but it doesn\u2019t excuse what he and Maxwell were up to. Prince Andrew would have had wide knowledge of the Royal Family and the inside workings of the British establishment and government. These were valuable and influential \u2018contacts\u2019.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-family: 'book antiqua', palatino, serif; font-size: 14pt;\">So, why make all the preceding associations if none of it can be proven, yet many people believe it? That question goes toward answering what is next for Maxwell and to how much will actually be revealed about what she knows, as well as whether or not there will be justice for her alleged victims. We start with her arrest.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-family: 'book antiqua', palatino, serif; font-size: 14pt;\">There are three \u2018arrest\u2019 midpoints, as a matter of general interest: Sun\/Plu=Ura, Mars\/Ura=Asc and Jup\/Plu midpoints, with others implied. The timing of Maxwell\u2019s arrest is of interest. The directions to her chart at the time of arrest are shown below (<span style=\"color: #993300;\"><a style=\"color: #993300;\" href=\"http:\/\/malvinartley.com\/PDF%20Files\/charts\/maxwell_arrest_directions.png\">bigger<\/a><\/span>):<\/span><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-1367 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/malvinartley.com\/blog.malvinartley.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/maxwell_arrest_directions.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"923\" height=\"945\" srcset=\"https:\/\/malvinartley.com\/blog.malvinartley.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/maxwell_arrest_directions.png 923w, https:\/\/malvinartley.com\/blog.malvinartley.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/maxwell_arrest_directions-293x300.png 293w, https:\/\/malvinartley.com\/blog.malvinartley.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/maxwell_arrest_directions-768x786.png 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 767px) 89vw, (max-width: 1000px) 54vw, (max-width: 1071px) 543px, 580px\" \/><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-family: 'book antiqua', palatino, serif; font-size: 14pt;\">She was arrested on 2 July at around 8:30 am local time at her home in New Hampshire. None of the \u2018arrest midpoints\u2019 are shown. There are some secondary ones, though, starting with Sun\/Nep=MC\/IC); \u201cBeing sensitive, weak, ill or impressionable. &#8211; A negative outlook. &#8211; Periods of depression, hyper-sensitiveness or mental and emotional stress.\u201d This is coupled with a Pluto direction just past the IC, which forms a midpoint with the aforementioned midpoint: \u201cAffliction through emotional or physical suffering, an extremely high sensitiveness, a tragic deception or illusion.\u201d That direction was in effect when Epstein was arrested last year and later died in prison.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-family: 'book antiqua', palatino, serif; font-size: 14pt;\">The next direction to consider is Plu\/Node to Maxwell\u2019s Saturn. This comes at the time of her 2<sup>nd<\/sup> Saturn return, Saturn also ruling her 8<sup>th<\/sup> and 9<sup>th<\/sup> houses. The 9<sup>th<\/sup> house rules the judiciary, judicial matters and attorneys. The 8<sup>th<\/sup> house rules death and losses, in her case. At her 1<sup>st<\/sup> Saturn return her father died and the family fortune was wiped out. Sat=Plu\/Node: \u201cA lack of adaptability, rebelliousness or truculence, revolt, the fighting against oppression. &#8211; <strong>A violent termination of relationships<\/strong>.\u201d The latter describes her present circumstance, with the double Saturnian influence along with the midpoint \u2013 restrictions, losses, separations, etc.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-family: 'book antiqua', palatino, serif; font-size: 14pt;\">Next, there is the direction of Jup\/Sat to her natal Sun, indicating a \u2018change of residence\u2019. Going to prison is one sort of change of residence. Of interest, in a man\u2019s chart this shows a \u2018happy separation\u2019. In general the midpoint shows very significant changes in a person\u2019s circumstance when it is activated.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-family: 'book antiqua', palatino, serif; font-size: 14pt;\">Finally, we have the direction of Mars\/Ura to her 8<sup>th<\/sup> house cusp, which can indicate a death. At the least it shows a sudden and\/or violent upset. It can also show an imminent surgery or accident. The direction is also to her natal Mars, not normally counted. However, if one views Mars as the ruler of her 12<sup>th<\/sup> house, the meaning is clear enough \u2013 incarceration, circumstances which are undermining, relegation to an institution, as in a hospital or prison, etc.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-family: 'book antiqua', palatino, serif; font-size: 14pt;\">As to the wider picture, the arrest came a day after the Israelis were to move ahead with their annexation of the West Bank. It also came a day after <span style=\"color: #993300;\"><a style=\"color: #993300;\" href=\"https:\/\/www.theatlantic.com\/ideas\/archive\/2020\/06\/why-bill-barr-got-rid-geoffrey-berman\/613339\/\">AG Bill Barr fired Geoffrey Berman<\/a><\/span>, which was done under suspicious circumstances. The election is only a few months away and one can well imagine that the Trump team would like this tidied up quick smart. It would also play to his voter base in that Trump would be seen as trying to clean up the pedophile rings. But the fact that there is no mention of Les Wexner, one of the chief figures associated with Epstein and a major crime boss, says that little is going to come of Maxwell&#8217;s arrest.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-family: 'book antiqua', palatino, serif; font-size: 14pt;\">But as far as Israel goes, the annexation was put on hold suddenly the day it was supposed to happen. One might well ask why. Does her arrest have something to do with it? Was she arrested to make some people nervous, to move the annexation ahead? Who can say?<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-family: 'book antiqua', palatino, serif; font-size: 14pt;\">The <span style=\"color: #993300;\"><a style=\"color: #993300;\" href=\"https:\/\/www.juancole.com\/2020\/07\/netanyahu-beginning-palestinian.html\">halt to the annexation appears to be a combination of factors<\/a><\/span>, domestic to Israel and foreign, involving opposition by Gantz domestically, who is up to take the PM seat in 18 months, Israeli ex-security chiefs, settlers within the region, the Gulf States and Jordan, who are afraid the annexation would embolden Iran and its allies, opposition within the US Congress, and European opposition to the move.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-family: 'book antiqua', palatino, serif; font-size: 14pt;\">Then, her arrest came at the same time that there were <span style=\"color: #993300;\"><a style=\"color: #993300;\" href=\"https:\/\/www.bbc.com\/news\/uk-53263310\">sweeping arrests throughout Europe<\/a><\/span> of major organized crime figures, with hundreds of them now in custody. This came about through authorities being able to hack the encryption on <span style=\"color: #993300;\"><a style=\"color: #993300;\" href=\"https:\/\/www.vice.com\/en_us\/article\/ep4b8m\/encrochat-europe-organised-crime-busts-cocaine-guns\">EncroChat phones<\/a><\/span> \u2013 the \u2018WhatsApp of gangsters\u2019.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-family: 'book antiqua', palatino, serif; font-size: 14pt;\">Having looked at all the preceding, the one thing we can say for certain is that her arrest is shown in her astrology. So is her character. All else are rabbit holes one can choose to go down or not. As the saying goes, where there is smoke there is fire. But the implication is that there is more to her story than what we are being told. And, if there are powerful people indeed nervous about what may or may not come of her arrest, then her case bears careful watching. There would be a lot at stake, as well as her life. That brings up the last question: Will she be found dead in the near future, or will she simply disappear and the case be buried?<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-family: 'book antiqua', palatino, serif; font-size: 14pt;\">Having a look at the directions at the bottom of her chart wheel, coupled with all the activity in her 8<sup>th<\/sup> and 4<sup>th<\/sup> houses, the outlook for her is not good. There actually is a \u2018suicide midpoint \u2013 Saturn=Mars\/Pluto \u2013 which for her is at the 5<sup>th<\/sup> degree of fixed signs. Saturn will complete the midpoint by transit at the end of January next year. <span style=\"color: #993300;\"><a style=\"color: #993300;\" href=\"https:\/\/www.thesun.co.uk\/news\/12041691\/ghislaine-maxwell-latest-news-court-live\/\">Maxwell has just been denied bail and been remanded to custody<\/a><\/span> until her trial date on 12 July next year. She has been deemed a flight risk.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-family: 'book antiqua', palatino, serif; font-size: 14pt;\">In addition, the Sat\/Ura midpoint is directed to her natal death axis (Mars\/Sat), showing the limitation of her freedom and the sudden change in her circumstances. And in six months directed Neptune will be within 2\u00b0 orb of that death axis, being within the accepted orb (1 \u00bd \u00b0) at her trial date: \u201cWaning powers and weakening efforts, self-torment, the undermining of the vitality (through poison, gas or an epidemic). &#8211; <strong>A mysterious death, a grievous and grave loss<\/strong>.\u201d If her case does go to trial, the indications are it will not go well for her, much to the relief of her alleged victims.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-family: 'book antiqua', palatino, serif; font-size: 14pt;\">The current administration has been associated with Epstein and other figures going back many decades. It is <span style=\"color: #993300;\"><a style=\"color: #993300;\" href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=4A78Zu9ZgT8&amp;list=PLsireR9QHmX_ZIQBIDi5LEFX0-4SQDhON&amp;index=58&amp;t=0s\">doubtful there will be a thorough investigation regarding Maxwell\u2019s activities<\/a><\/span> (video, start 13:46), and in fact the arrest may even amount to nothing and see her released. That is one possibility. But most people, given Epstein\u2019s death in prison, are sceptical that Maxwell will be allowed to just walk away.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-family: 'book antiqua', palatino, serif; font-size: 14pt;\">This is a story that will captivate the public until the trial is finished or until she leaves this world. It is a story that will needlessly distract people from the more immediate needs at hand, as in the failings of the United States leadership to address so many crises. And behind the scenes and in a wider context, it is a story that many people in places of power would simply like to go away.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-family: 'book antiqua', palatino, serif; font-size: 14pt;\">&#8220;Maxwell&#8217;s Silver Hammer&#8221; was a song about a fictional medical student who bashed in the heads of people he didn&#8217;t like. Actually, it is a song about the sudden turns in life that can bring us down. Maxwell herself just had such a turn of events. But her alleged actions \u2013 we say &#8216;alleged&#8217; because they have not been proven in a court of law, though the court of public opinion has already skewered her \u2013 have ruined the lives of many young women. And she does have a &#8216;silver hammer&#8217; midpoint in her chart \u2013 Sat=Mars\/Ura \u2013 which is being activated now.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-family: 'book antiqua', palatino, serif; font-size: 14pt;\">The public would like to know the truth about Epstein, Ghislaine Maxwell and to see the people involved brought to justice. Whether or not that will happen is another story. For now, we have to wait and see if Ghislaine Maxwell talks and her silver hammer comes down on someone\u2019s head. Or maybe it will come down on hers.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-family: 'book antiqua', palatino, serif; font-size: 12pt;\">Featured pic from <span style=\"color: #993300;\"><a style=\"color: #993300;\" href=\"https:\/\/www.metro.us\/accused-jeffrey-epstein-accomplice\/\">Metro US<\/a><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>OK, it\u2019s not the Beatles, but it\u2019s the only live version I could find that was close.
