OJ Simpson & Longevity – The Astrology

Ex-football player American infamous Orenthal James Simpson was found death on April 2024. All his accomplishments in his career were clouded by the trial and contentious verdict regarding the deaths of his former wife, Nicole Brown, and her friend, Ron Goldman, in 1994 – [all written in astrological investigation here]. 

Now, what I am curious to know, to investigate, is what caused the death of him in the Primum Mobile? Ancient astrologers wouldn’t think twice.  

He died of prostate cancer on April 10, 2024, at the age of 76 when Anaereta detriment Saturn is directed to the first square Converse of Hyleg Mercury in the radix, cutting off his vitality by Primary Direction. The direction is less than a month earlier his actual death, but if we rectify the chart a few minutes later, we get the exact date, nonetheless.

The 8th house cusp of one’s genitals is term-ruled by Mercury in Cancer. Hyleg Mercury is trine ruler of 8th house of death, Jupiter. Jupiter in the chart, not only is ruler of such house of death but it is also in Scorpio, the sign of one’s private parts. Now, Solar Return 2023 has Sagittarius rising, activating the ruler [Jupiter]of the SR2023 chart for the entire year as well as the SR’s Lord of the turn 2023 by Profection.

Observations: When transiting malefic Mars in Cancer was conjunct his natal Mercury in May 2023, Simpson reported that he had been diagnosed with cancer; Profected Annual Ascendent was natal Scorpio, activating not only that ruler of 8th house Jupiter, but also lord of the year Mars. In 2023, that annual Lord changed to Jupiter. When he was declared dead, monthly Profection of the ascendant has just moved to Virgo, activating Hyleg Mercury! Also, the same sign (Virgo), thus same planet (Mercury) is activated by monthly Profection of the SR2023 Ascendant. 

Transits of the Day of his Death – Transiting Sun-Mercury in Aries were square natal Sun-Mercury in Cancer. Thus, the April Aries Eclipse 2024 was square his Hyleg Mercury. Also, the malefic transiting Mars-Saturn conjunction was basically conjunct the Cusp of his 8th house of death [Placidus division].

Why Hyleg was Mercury and Not the Sun? – This is also one of the reasons houses by division is important in the astrology of longevity if investigating by the Hyleg position in the Zodiac, in this case, Hyleg Mercury is together with vital Sun, rising above the horizon in the 12th sign but already well placed in the 11th house in this Diurnal chart! Now, why Mercury and not the Sun in Cancer? I think because both Sun-Mercury are ruled by the Moon, which in turn is closer by degrees to a Trine to Mercury instead of the Sun, while both the Sun and Mercury Trine Jupiter, ruler of 8th house of death. Mercury is also, term-ruled by such Jupiter, while the Sun is not. In return, Mercury is associated to ruler of 1st house, the conjunction to the Sun.
