Paul William Walker IV (September 12, 1973 – November 30, 2013) was an American actor best known for his role as Brian O’Conner in The Fast and the Furious franchise. Walker first gained prominence in 1999 with roles in the teen films She’s All That and Varsity Blues. In 2001, he gained international fame for his role in the street racing action film The Fast and the Furious (2001), a role he reprised in five of the next six installments, but died in 2013 in the middle of filming Furious 7 (2015). Walker began his career guest-starring on TV shows such as The Young and the Restless and Touched by an Angel. He later starred in films such as Joy Ride (2001), Timeline (2003), Into the Blue (2005), Eight Below (2006), and Running Scared (2006).

He founded the disaster-relief charity Reach Out Worldwide (ROWW) in response to the 2010 Haiti earthquake. – wikipedia
The Passion for Fast Cars
Paul was a Full Moon person. The Sun in Virgo was opposite Moon in Pisces at the day he was born. They are the biggest dreamer of the Zodiac.
"The dream is to have it all. Who says you can’t have your cake and eat it too? Live this life, that life, this life, you know? You only live one time — I want to get it all in."
His natal Sun was conjunction Mercury, the planet ruler of cars and everything that transports. Realize that his Victorious planet (watch his natal chart below) is also Mercury!
"I've always wanted to race cars, ever since I was a young boy, as I think a lot of guys have."

The Chart
Factors & Directions
Firdaria - 2001 & Transits
Jupiter period - Mercury subperiod
By 2001, Paul Walker was still in Mercury sub-period under Jupiter period of 12 years. Mercury rules cars and is the victorious planet of his natal chart.
At the day of the movie premiere of Fast and the Furious first movie in June 22, 2001, transiting Mercury/Jupiter were conjunct in the skies, while applying trine to natal Venus (popularity + Jupiter).
Transiting Mars (fast and furious) was exact square no natal Sun.
A day before, there was a total solar eclipse at 0° degrees Cancer – thus conjunct Paul’s natal Saturn in the 10th house of career. A new path/direction was opened the next night of the movie’s premiere. The eclipse last almost 5 hours, thus it lasted about 5 months in his chart, concerning career and status.
Profected Ascendant
profected asc in capricorn
Profected Ascendant for the date of the premiere is Capricorn. Transiting Saturn (the ruler) was almost exact conjunct natal 10th house cusp. The PA was at 4° degrees Capricorn, thus opposite natal Saturn in Cancer by 1° orb located in the 10th house of native’s prominence in the world.
Best Friend Vin Diesel
Synastry: Venus-Mars Conjunction
Vin Diesel considered Walker to be like a brother, both on and off screen, and affectionately called him “Pablo”. Walker’s mother referred to her son as Diesel’s “other half”.
They have Venus (Paul) Mars (Diesel) conjunction in synastry – a combination of energy that favors partners to the best among friends.
Vin Diesel’s natal Mercury (mind, exchange of information about cars for example) conjunct by exact orb Paul’s cusp of 11th house of friends. Whenever ‘friends’ were the talking in the conversation, Paul would immediately think to his best paul Vin Diesel. He is also the godfather of Walker’s daughter
First Movie [1986]
ruler of mc direction to converse trine of mc
If we take the ruler of his mid-heaven (Mc), and direct it to the trine of its culmination point, we get the year and exact arc (Paul was 12y) when Walker’s film career began in 1986, with the horror/comedy film Monster in the Closet:
Many famous actor start the career young, and thus many show benefic planets on the rise (or indeed culminating), and the direction taking usually indicates their first appearance on TV, or any other kind of media. The majority of his planets on angles form a direction quite earlier than 1984 (including the Sun to Asc and the Moon to Dsc).
The Tragic and Violent Death Accompanied
"In September, Walker's daughter filed a wrongful death lawsuit against Porsche, claiming the sports car he was riding in had multiple design flaws. But Porsche said the car "was abused and altered after being placed into the stream of commerce in a manner that was not reasonably foreseeable to (Porsche Cars North America)." - CNN [2014]
The Accident: On November 30, 2013, at about 3:30 p.m. PST, Walker and Roger Rodas, 38, left an event for Walker’s charity Reach Out Worldwide for victims of Typhoon Haiyan (Yolanda), with Rodas driving his Porsche Carrera GT. In a 45 mph (72 km/h) speed zone on Hercules Street near Kelly Johnson Parkway in Valencia, Santa Clarita, California, the car crashed into a concrete lamp post and two trees and burst into flames.
Even when an investigation by the Los Angeles County Sheriff's Department said it was speed that killed the "Fast & Furious" star, and among years of repercussion on the media and tribunals, at the end, Walker's father and daughter both reached an agreement with Porsche (having received a $10.1 million settlement)
Uranus direction to Hyleg
surprising death
"If one day the speed kills me don’t be sad because i will have died smiling."
He was only 40 years old. But to natal chart this is enough to search for a Hyleg and ignore differentias. It was a matter of finding the Hyleg then the killing planet. But since we already knew Paul was cut short by 40 years old, we could simplify by first observing malefics in the same quadrant (specially if the Sun is angular) and apply the automatic calculations from the software of your choice (in my case Morinus) and try out a few configuration from malefics and here’s what I found. Uranus provoking a out of nowhere and surprising murder to his vitality:
This old technique amazes me. *Even when the date given by the dynamic key is 3 days ahead of the actual unfortunate event, it chills me the precision of directions from the radix. Since he died at age 40, we can ignore the Arc without the dynamic key. It was also necessary to add the latitude of both planets.
This is also the same direction (Uranus -> Hyleg Sun) we investigated on the day of the murdering of Mathew Sheppard [click for more]. But in the case such horrendous killing, the direction was converse and not direct. This makes me think that Paul Walker was literally ‘murdered’ by his friend in high speed. The ruler of Paul’s natal 11th house of friends is the Moon, and the natal Moon is what? Full! Thus opposite natal Sun. Whenever the planet’s direction to the Paul’s Sun (direct), it would have first to be opposite Moon also by primary motion.
8th house Aries
death by burn and trauma
Paul’s natal 8th house is in terms with Venus, providing us with the information he would die with someone known by his side, a significant other, in his case, a friend he considered much.
The cusp of the house of death is in Aries, informing us he could die from a violent and quick accident, and the sign rules fire and burns – Rodas (the friend that was driving) died of multiple trauma while Walker died from the combined effects of trauma and burns. Both of their bodies were burned beyond recognition.
Aries also rules speed – the ruler of the 8th house Mars is in terms of Mercury (cars).
4th house cusp conjunct Antares
"the Heart of the Scorpion"
According to Ptolemy it is of the nature of Mars and Jupiter. Alvidas gives Jupiter sextile Venus, but this is unlikely considering the decidedly martial and malefic nature of the star. It causes malevolence, destructiveness, liberality, broad-mindedness, evil presages and danger of fatality and makes its natives rash, ravenous, headstrong and destructive to themselves by their own obstinacy. [Robson, 136.]
"The bottom line is that the Porsche Carrera GT is a dangerous car. It doesn't belong on the street," Walker's attorney, Jeff Milam, said in a statement at the time. "And we shouldn't be without Paul Walker or his friend, Roger Rodas."
Solar Return - 2013 [year of death]
Ascendant Ruler Direction
Direction of death in SR's
direction from ruler of annual asc to the 4th house cusp of death
Annual ascendant (body) in the solar return of 2013 was Taurus; which ruler (Venus) had then recently entered its detriment sign (Scorpio/death) was square transiting Mars (violent/sudden) -which the last was what? Conjunct the cusp of 4th house of end of matter in the SR 2013. The direction coincides with the configuration:
As usual in case of death, we direct the ruler of the annual Ascendant to an angle, specially to the 4th, 10th and 7th houses. In Walker’s case, we directed Venus (ruler of Taurus rising) to the bottom line of the chart (4th house). If any astrologer had seen his primary directions from the radix for that year and saw the connection (arc/date) with the same of the direction of annunal Asc to an angle of exit, she/he could have had speculated such event. Also, Venus is term ruler of 8th house cusp from the radix!
