Asteroid Goddesses - the undistorted Natural/Divine Feminine

[Helena]

Hi Rad, DDD and Nerissa,

Thank all for dispelling my original confusion. It was probably a practice thread? In any case i see i had a confusing memory of Queen Elisabeth II and Diana being same soul (split) i now see it's wrong...
It's very interesting to see both charts and no wonder why people instantly felt admiration for Diana. I will have to look at it better but it's quite a remarkable the synastry.

Best to All,
Helena

P.S. Rad just to confirm, is Elizabeth natal Lilith for year 1533 at 20 Sag., Sn 15 cancer, NN 3 Sag.?

Hi Helena,

God Bless, Rad

Hi All,

Here the chart for Hannah Szenes (often anglicized as Hannah Senesh or Chanah Senesh;  Hungarian: Szenes Anna; 17 July 1921 – 7 November 1944) was a poet and a Special Operations Executive (SOE) member. She was one of 37 Jewish SOE recruits from Mandate Palestine parachuted by the British into Yugoslavia during the Second World War to assist anti-Nazi forces and ultimately in the rescue of Hungarian Jews about to be deported to the German death camp at Auschwitz.

Szenes was arrested at the Hungarian border by Hungarian gendarmes. She was imprisoned and tortured, but refused to reveal details of her mission. She was eventually tried and executed by firing squad. She is regarded as a national heroine in Israel but has largely been forgotten in her birthplace of Hungary according to The Guardian. In Israel her poetry is widely known and the Yad Hana kibbutz as well as several streets, are named after her.

Early life

Szenes was born on July 17, 1921, to an assimilated Jewish family in Hungary. Her father, Béla, a journalist and playwright, died when Hannah was six years old. She continued to live with her mother, Kathrine, and her brother, György.

She enrolled in a Protestant private school for girls that also accepted Catholic and Jewish pupils; however those of the Catholic and Jewish faith had to pay double and three times the amount Protestants paid. After her mother thought it was too expensive, Szenes was declared a "gifted student" and allowed to only pay double the usual amount. This, along with the realization that the situation of the Jews in Hungary was becoming precarious, prompted Szenes to embrace Zionism, and she joined Maccabea, a Hungarian Zionist students organization.

Immigration to Nahalal

Szenes graduated in 1939 and decided to emigrate to what was then the British Mandate of Palestine in order to study in the Girls' Agricultural School at Nahalal. In 1941, she joined Kibbutz Sdot Yam and then joined the Haganah, the paramilitary group that laid the foundation of the Israel Defense Forces.

The scholar of Jewish Mysticism Joseph G. Weiss was in love with her and parts of their correspondence were published after his death.

In 1943, she enlisted in the British Women's Auxiliary Air Force as an Aircraftwoman 2nd Class. Later the same year, she was recruited into the Special Operations Executive (SOE) and was sent to Egypt for parachute training.

The parachutists' mission

Between 1943 and 1944 the Jewish community in Palestine (Yishuv) decided to send Jewish parachutists behind enemy lines to assist both Allies forces and the Jews in occupied Europe. The mission was a cooperation between the Yishuv and British forces to create Jewish commando unit within the British army. Szenes volunteered and was selected along with only 32, chosen out of 250, to be sent on active missions.[

Arrest and torture

On March 14, 1944, she and two colleagues were parachuted into Yugoslavia and joined a partisan group. After landing, they learned the Germans had already occupied Hungary, so the men decided to call off the mission as too dangerous.

Szenes continued on and headed for the Hungarian border. At the border, she and her companions were arrested by Hungarian gendarmes, who found her British military transmitter, used to communicate with the SOE and other partisans. She was taken to a prison, stripped, tied to a chair, then whipped and clubbed for three days. She lost several teeth as a result of the beating.

The guards wanted to know the code for her transmitter so they could find out who the parachutists were and trap others. Transferred to a Budapest prison, Szenes was repeatedly interrogated and tortured, but only revealed her name and refused to provide the transmitter code, even when her mother was also arrested. They threatened to kill her mother if she did not cooperate, but she refused.

While in prison, Szenes used a mirror to flash signals out of the window to prisoners in other cells and communicated using large cut-out letters that she placed in her cell window one at a time and by drawing the Magen David in the dust.   

Trial and execution

She was tried for treason in Hungary on 28 October 1944 by a court appointed by the fascist Arrow Cross regime. There was an eight-day postponement to give the judges more time to find a verdict, followed by another postponement, this one because of the appointment of a new Judge Advocate. She was executed by a firing squad on November 7, 1944. She kept diary entries until her last day. One of them read: "In the month of July, I shall be twenty-three/I played a number in a game/The dice have rolled. I have lost," and another: "I loved the warm sunlight."

Her diary was published in Hebrew in 1946. Her remains were brought to Israel in 1950 and buried in the cemetery on Mount Herzl, Jerusalem. Her tombstone was brought to Israel in November 2007 and placed in Sdot Yam.

During the trial of Rudolf Kastner, Hannah's mother testified that during the time her daughter was imprisoned, Kastner's people had advised her not to obtain a lawyer for her daughter. Further, she recalled a conversation with Kastner after the war, telling him, "I don't say that you could have saved my daughter Hannah, but that you didn't try – it makes it harder for me that nothing was done."

After the Cold War, a Hungarian military court officially exonerated her. Her kin in Israel were informed on November 5, 1993.

Hi All

Here is the chart for Márta Mészáros (born 19 September 1931) is a Hungarian screenwriter and film director. The daughter of László Mészáros, a sculptor, Mészáros began her career working in documentary film, having made 25 documentary shorts over the span of ten years. Her full-length directorial debut, Eltavozott nap/The Girl (1968), was the first Hungarian film to have been directed by a woman, and won the Special Prize of the Jury at the Valladolid International Film Festival.

Mészáros' work often combines autobiographical details with documentary footage. Prominent themes include characters' denials of their pasts, the consequences of dishonesty, and the problematics of gender. Her films often feature heroines from fragmented families, such as young girls seeking their missing parents (The Girl) or middle-aged women looking to adopt children (Adoption).

Although Mészáros has made over fifteen feature films, she is arguably best known for Diary for My Children (1984), which won the Grand Prix at the Cannes Film Festival. It was the first entry in a trilogy of autobiographical films which also includes Diary for My Lovers (1987) and Diary for My Mother and Father (1990).

Throughout her career, Mészáros has won the Golden Bear and the Silver Bear awards at the Berlinale; the Golden Medal at the Chicago International Film Festival; the Silver Shell at the San Sebastian International Film Festival; and the FIPRESCI Prize at the Cannes Film Festival. In 1991 she was a member of the jury at the 17th Moscow International Film Festival.

Early life and education

Born in Budapest, Mészáros spent the first two years of her life in the Soviet Union, where her parents had emigrated as communist artists in 1936. While there, Mészáros's father, László Mészáros, was arrested and killed in 1938 under the Stalinist regime and her mother died giving birth. Orphaned, Mészáros was raised by her foster mother in the USSR where she attended school. After returning to Hungary in 1946, Mészáros went back to Moscow to study at VGIK, returning again to Hungary only after her graduation in 1956.
Career

Mészáros began working at the Budapest Newsreel Studio in 1954 where she made four short films, and then for the Alexandru Sahia documentary studio in Bucharest, Romania, from 1957–59. She then returned to Budapest in 1958 to make science popularization shorts, and documentary shorts, where she worked until 1968. Mészáros joined the Mafilm Group 4 in the mid-1960s, and directed her first feature in 1968. At this time, Mészáros was the first woman director in Hungary to make a feature film. In the 1980s Mészáros made her semi-autobiographical "Diary films" that had a major impact on "Hungarian cinema" because of her conscious depiction of the government and individual past experiences. She challenged the censorship in Hungary and ascertained herself as an integral voice in the country's cinema. Since Mészáros first feature in 1968 she has made over fifty films, won numerous awards, and has been a judge on various film panels; she also continues to make films to this day.
Legacy

Mészáros films are in many ways reflective of her experiences growing up and deal with issues that are relevant to her life. Having lost both of her parents early in life, and having spent much of her youth living in a post-Stalinist Hungary Mészáros life was rife with tragedy and oppression, and her films are often reflective of this. Additionally, because Mészáros spent many of her first years as a filmmaker working in documentary films, many of her feature films also contain much documentary footage. In most Mészáros features the films are open-ended, lack a conventional plot, and dialogue is sparse.

In terms of content, Mészáros films explore the wide and often tragic gaps between ideals and realities, and between parents and their children. Mészáros's films deal with realities usually ignored in Eastern European cinema: the subordination of women, conflicts of urban and rural cultures, antagonism between the bureaucracy and its employees, alcoholism, the generation gap, dissolution of traditional family structures, and the plight of state-reared children.

Mészáros is one of few female filmmakers who consistently makes films both critically and commercially successful for an international audience. Her eight feature films made from 1968 to 1979 are concerned with the social oppression, economic constraints, and emotional challenges faced by Hungarian women. In her own words Mészáros explains: "I tell banal, commonplace stories, and then in them the leads are women—I portray things from a woman's angle."[This quote needs a citation]

Personal life

Mészáros was first married to László Karda (a filmmaker), in 1957, but they divorced in 1959, and in 1960 she married Miklós Jancsó, a Hungarian film director and screenwriter whom she met during her time with the Mafilm Group 4. Although they later divorced in 1973, their two sons, Nyika Jancsó and Miklós Jancsó Jr., have each separately worked as director of photography on many of her films. She later married the Polish actor Jan Nowicki, but they divorced in 2008. Nowicki starred in many of her films, including the principal role in The Unburied Dead. His son from an earlier relationship, ?ukasz Nowicki, starred in Mészáros' film, Kisvilma. Mészáros also has a daughter, Kasia Jancsó, from her second marriage.

The show explores the effects of her pregnancy on her family, friends, and herself, as well as life at Grant High School. Ken Tucker of Entertainment Weekly praised her performance, stating, "It lifts a well-meaning, rather brave, but ramshackle show a notch." Popular among viewers, the show became one of ABC Family's most-watched telecasts throughout its five-season run, spanning over 121 episodes.
2011–2014: Film debut and breakthrough

In 2011, Woodley made her feature film debut in The Descendants, where she played Alex, the troubled elder daughter of Matt King (played by George Clooney). Her performance received positive reviews from critics. A. O. Scott from The New York Times said, "Ms. Woodley [gives] one of the toughest, smartest, most credible adolescent performances in recent memory." Peter Debruge from Variety said that her performance is a "revelation" and that "in the role of Alex, she is displaying both the edge and depth the role demands."

People named her one of 2012 "Most Beautiful at Every Age." Woodley was also considered one of the 55 faces of the future by Nylon's "Young Hollywood Issue".

Woodley starred in the film adaptation of Tim Tharp's novel, The Spectacular Now, as Aimee Finecky, an innocent, bookish teenager who begins dating the charming, freewheeling high-school senior (Miles Teller). The film premiered at Sundance on January 18, 2013. Her portrayal of Aimee gained praise from critics; Los Angeles Times' critic Betsy Sharkey said that Woodley and Teller "bring such an authentic face of confidence and questioning, indifference and need, pain and denial, friendship and first love," while another critic from The Guardian said that they gave "remarkably strong performances" that "display a depth of feeling that's breathtaking in its simplicity and honesty." Additionally, Woodley won the Special Jury Award for Acting, alongside Teller, at the 2013 Sundance Film Festival and received a nomination for the Independent Spirit Award for Best Female Lead.

In October 2012, Woodley was offered the role of Mary Jane Watson in The Amazing Spider-Man 2.] On June 19, 2013, she was cut from the film. Director Marc Webb told The Hollywood Reporter that the cut was "a creative decision to streamline the story and focus on Peter and Gwen and their relationship," and that everyone loved working with Woodley. She had also signed on to star in White Bird in a Blizzard, directed by Gregg Araki. Although filming took place in October 2012, the film was not released until January 20, 2014, at the Sundance Film Festival and then on October 24, 2014, to wider audiences, where it received mixed reviews. In the film, she plays teenager Katrina "Kat" Connors, whose life is thrown into chaos when her mother disappears. Critic Moira MacDonald commended her by saying, "Woodley's depiction of Kat is low-key, natural, and utterly unaffected; as she has in every role, she makes the character her own, with her scratchy little voice and level gaze."

In 2014, Woodley starred as Beatrice "Tris" Prior in the film Divergent, an adaptation of Veronica Roth's best-selling young-adult novel of the same name, and the first installment in The Divergent Series. Set in a dystopian and postapocalyptic Chicago, the film received mixed reviews, but Woodley's performance as Tris received a positive reception; Sam Allard from Orlando Weekly said, "with her performance as Tris Prior in Divergent, Woodley rescues and then raises up a film that could have been an utter disaster." Divergent reached the number-one spot at the box office during its opening weekend, and was a financial success.

Afterwards in 2014, Woodley starred as Hazel Grace Lancaster in The Fault in Our Stars, the film adaptation of John Green's novel of the same name. She portrayed a 16-year-old cancer patient who meets and falls in love with Augustus Waters (played by Ansel Elgort, who also played her brother in the Divergent series), a similarly afflicted teen from her cancer support group. Green said via Twitter about Woodley; "There were so many amazing auditions for the role of Hazel, but Shailene's love for the book and her understanding of Hazel blew me away." The film was a blockbuster success, grossing over $307 million worldwide. Woodley's performance received critical acclaim from critics; Peter Travers in Rolling Stone called her a "sublime actress with a résumé that pretty much proves she's incapable of making a false move on camera", and Richard Roeper of Chicago Sun-Times called her performance as Hazel Oscar-worthy, adding, "she's that memorable". On November 14, 2014, she received The Hollywood Film Award for Hollywood Breakout Performance – Actress for her performance as Hazel.

2015–present: Further film and television work

In 2015, Woodley reprised her role as Tris in The Divergent Series: Insurgent, the second installment in The Divergent Series. Her performance once again received critical acclaim, with Daniel M. Kimmel of New England Movies Weekly writing, "Woodley does solid work here as she's done elsewhere, and continues to be someone to watch." Despite a more negative critical reception than the previous film, Insurgent was commercially successful, making nearly $100 million in its worldwide debut and grossed $295.2 million worldwide. She reprised her role again in the penultimate film of the series Allegiant (2016). The film, however, was poorly reviewed by critics and a box-office bomb. Lionsgate had planned for the final film in the series to be made for television, but Woodley announced that she would not be a part of it. She next starred opposite Joseph Gordon-Levitt in Oliver Stone's biographical thriller Snowden (2016),] in which Gordon-Levitt portrayed Edward Snowden. Owen Gleiberman's review said that Woodley "gives a performance of breathtaking dimension: As the movie goes on, she makes Lindsay supportive and selfish, loving and stricken."

Starting in 2015,] Woodley took a break from filming for nearly a year, stating in a later interview that she "had hit a wall with acting." From 2017 to 2019, Woodley starred as a sexual assault survivor, alongside Nicole Kidman and Reese Witherspoon, in two seasons of the HBO drama series Big Little Lies. She was nominated for an Emmy and Golden Globe Award in 2017 for Best Supporting Actress in a Limited Series or Movie and Best Performance by an Actress in a Supporting Role in a Series, Limited Series or Motion Picture Made for Television respectively for her role.] She also starred in and produced the biographical film Adrift (2018), with Baltasar Kormákur as director.

Hi All,

Here is the chart for Lilian Bland (28 September 1878 – 11 May 1971) was an Anglo-Irish journalist and pioneer aviator who, in 1910–11, became one of the first women in the British Isles, and maybe even in the world, to design, build, and fly an aircraft – the Bland Mayfly.

Early life

Bland was born in Maidstone, Kent on 28 September 1878, to a family of Anglo-Irish gentry, the third child of John Humphrey Bland and his wife Emily Charlotte (née Madden) and lived at Willington House, located on Willington Street (formerly, Willington Lane). Around the turn of the century, she began working as a sports journalist and press photographer for various London newspapers; she lived an unconventional lifestyle for the period; smoking, wearing trousers, hunting, shooting, and fishing.

Between 1900 and 1906, following the death of her mother, Bland (aged 28) and her father moved to Tobercorran House in northern Ireland. Tobercorran was the family house in Carnmoney, and was located on Glebe Road West, just north of Belfast where Bland and her father moved in with her aunt Sarah. Sarah had married General William James Smythe on 15 December 1857; the couple had not had children at the time of Smythe's death on 12 July 1887. The two siblings decided to set up house together, which was how Bland and her father came to live at Tobercorran.

From here, Bland continued her photographic work, spending days on remote Scottish islands photographing seabirds, which increased her fascination with flying.

Aviation career

The Mayfly was an aircraft designed and constructed by Lilian Bland in 1910

Bland's uncle Robert sent her a postcard of the Blériot monoplane from Paris, inspiring her to take up flying. She studied the measurements of the monoplane during the first official aviation meeting held in Blackpool in 1909, and added her own thoughts into the design of her plane, the Mayfly. The Mayfly had similar wings to Blériot's design, but it could get off the ground by itself. At that point, no one in Ireland had yet made a powered flight – the first would be Harry Ferguson, in December – and to make an aircraft would involve building it herself. Her late uncle, General William James Smythe, an astronomer and member of the Royal Society, provided a house with a workshop. After some background reading on the Wright brothers, and becoming inspired by their achievements, Bland successfully built a flyable model biplane with a wing span of six feet.

From this, she progressed to a full-scale glider with others' help, which was built from spruce, bamboo and canvas, and completed early in 1910. For months of experiments, she made numerous glider flights to improve the plane. The finished glider had a wingspan of 20 feet and 7 inches, and weighed 200 pounds. Due to the doubts that were expressed to her about its flying capability, Bland, with deliberate irony, named it Mayfly. The resulting Mayfly was tested by gliding it from Carnmoney Hill, being progressively strengthened and tested with heavier loads, until Bland felt it was strong enough to take an engine. The load test was done by four Irish constables. Since the plane could lift four men, Bland believed it could carry one English engine.] She ordered a light 20 horsepower two-stroke engine from A. V. Roe & Co. for £100, and after some delays brought it to Carnmoney in July.

The horizontally opposed two-cylinder engine achieved 20 horsepower at 1000 rpm. Bland was eager to test the engine-powered aircraft before its petrol tank was ready, so she improvised: an empty whiskey bottle was used instead, with Bland's deaf aunt's ear trumpet as the engine hose. This construction was not quite a success—the engine's vibrations compromised the security of the plane's nuts, bolts, and struts, and Bland's flight would have to wait.

Preparations of the Mayfly started in 1909, and the first successful flight was made at Randalstown in late August in 1910, a short hop off the ground.] While perching on a canvas open-air seat, she manipulated controls to maintain the flight in balance after running forward about 30 feet and stayed in the air for a quarter of a mile. The controls consisted of a bicycle handle bar. Not only did this make Bland the first woman to fly an aircraft in Ireland, but the Mayfly also became the first powered biplane in Ireland. In 2017, Sinead Morrisey recounts one of Bland's flights in her poem The Mayfly.

She continued experimenting with further flights, mostly around thirty feet (ten metres) in length, sometimes requiring examination of the ground to identify when the Mayfly had actually lifted off. The longest flight after the first try was approximately one-quarter of a mile (400 metres). She began to plan an improved version, and offered biplanes for sale at £250 apiece without an engine and gliders for £80 to fund further development. The Mayfly was able to stably glide over 90 yards and rise 30 feet even in gusty winds, according to Bland's words. The aircraft was however not capable of much more, and would not cope with a larger engine. Finally, Bland gave the Mayfly air-frame to a boy's gliding club and sold the engine.

Later life

By April 1911 she was running a car dealership in Belfast, Ireland, but in October 1912 gave up the business to marry her cousin Charles Loftus Bland (born 21 October 1881). Charles was a lumberjack from British Columbia and had returned to Ireland to propose to Lilian.[6] The couple married on 3 October 1911 and soon emigrated to Canada where they built their own farm on virgin lands.

Charles and Lilian had their first and only child, Patricia Lilian Bland, on 13 April 1913. Patricia died of tetanus in September 1929, at the age of 16. The couple separated soon after, with Lilian moving back to England and Charles going on to marry his second wife, Mary (who was a cousin of both Lilian and Charles).

Bland returned to the United Kingdom in 1935, settling in Kent. She became a gardener and gambled her wages on the stock market in the hopes of getting more money. She also wrote a memoir about her life during this time, which is yet to be published. By the 1950s, Bland had retired to Cornwall. In 1971, at the age of 92, Bland was quoted by the Belfast Telegraph for saying that the only excitement left to her was gambling. She died soon after on 11 May of the same year.

Legacy

Bland was commemorated by an Ulster History Circle blue plaque at the family home in Carnmoney, County Antrim and Mayfly was presented to the Dublin Club. Glengormley Park in Newtonabbey was renamed Lilian Bland Community Park in August 2011; at the same time a stainless-steel sculpture of the Mayfly was unveiled. Four of her paintings were put up for auction in Penzance in July 2021.

A 2021 exhibition on Irish innovators presented by National Museums NI the Ulster Transport Museum in Cultra, Belfast, featured Bland's contribution to Irish aviation.

Hi All,

Just caught a live interview (on CNN's Gps by Fareed Zakaria) with an extraordinary woman, Mahbouba Seraj, a woman's right's activist who's life has been dedicated to, in her words "trying to be the voice of the voiceless" women in Afghanistan, where she is and has been living and working in the past decades, and where she was born.
Unfortunately there is little to know from an astrological point of view but much more important is to pray for her and the work she is doing right now, so if any of you can please include this amazing soul in your prayers, in such a perilous time for the women and girls in this part of the world, that so much resemble the rest of the world how much women have endured in the past centuries but also how much we have progressed nonetheless in some places.

It's worth to register an excerpt of the interview, a very touching moment when all we see is men in powerful positions deciding wars and strategies and people's lives, she gave this humble answer to a world of insanity:

"Q: Mahbouba, you must be worried watch the Taliban rising, not just of the work that you are doing but you must be worried about your personal safety, of your own life?
A: You know Mr. Zakaria, I am not a very brave person, I really am not, and I am not a martyr either, I love my life, and I want to be alive because the women of Afghanistan still need. But this is something, this one thing, why I am here, why am staying, what I am doing and how I am doing it is because it's my job, it's my responsibility, and I have to do that. And that's exactly why I am doing it. So you know this where I am, this is where I want to stay, and want to be for my girls, for my sisters and for my daughters, right now they are my daughters mostly because they're young and I am an old woman now but at the same time, you know, I just want to be here, because I know my presence really gives them the kind of moral and the kind of support they really need in these very hard times. So that's exactly what I am doing."

May Goddess bless and protect her soul and the fate of all this women.

Hi All,

Here is the chart for Maria Anna Walburga Ignatia Mozart (30 July 1751 – 29 October 1829), called "Marianne" and nicknamed Nannerl, was a musician, the older sister of Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart (1756–1791) and daughter of Leopold (1719–1787) and Anna Maria Mozart (1720–1778).
 
Childhood

Maria Anna (Marianne) Mozart was born in Salzburg. When she was seven years old, her father Leopold Mozart started teaching her to play the harpsichord. Leopold took her and Wolfgang on tours of many cities, such as Vienna and Paris, to showcase their talents. In the early days, she sometimes received top billing, and she was noted as an excellent harpsichord player and fortepianist.

However, given the views of her parents, prevalent in her society at the time, it became impossible as she grew older for her to continue her career any further. According to New Grove, "from 1769 onwards she was no longer permitted to show her artistic talent on travels with her brother, as she had reached a marriageable age." Wolfgang went on during the 1770s to many artistic triumphs while traveling in Italy with Leopold, but Marianne stayed at home in Salzburg with her mother. She likewise stayed home with Leopold when Wolfgang visited Paris and other cities (1777–1779) accompanied by his mother.

There is evidence that Marianne wrote musical compositions, as there are letters from Wolfgang praising her work, but the voluminous correspondence of her father never mentions any of her compositions, and none have survived.

Marriage and children

In contrast to her brother, who quarreled with their father and eventually disobeyed his wishes with respect to career path and choice of spouse, Marianne remained entirely subordinate to her father. She fell in love with Franz d'Ippold, who was a captain and private tutor, but was forced by her father to turn down his marriage proposal. Wolfgang attempted, in vain, to get Marianne to stand up for her own preference.

Eventually, Marianne married a magistrate, Johann Baptist Franz von Berchtold zu Sonnenburg (23 August 1783), and settled with him in St. Gilgen, a village in Austria about 29 km] east of the Mozart family home in Salzburg. Berchtold was twice a widower and had five children from his two previous marriages, whom Marianne helped raise. She also bore three children of her own: Leopold Alois Pantaleon (1785–1840), Jeanette (1789–1805) and Maria Babette (1790–1791).

Leopold's raising of her son

An unusual episode in Marianne's life occurred when she gave birth (27 July 1785) to her first child, a son who was named Leopold after his grandfather. Marianne had traveled from her home in St. Gilgen to Salzburg for the birth. When she returned to St. Gilgen, she left her infant in the care of her father and his servants. The elder Leopold stated (by a letter that preceded Marianne back to St. Gilgen) that he would prefer to raise the child for the first few months himself. In 1786, he extended the arrangement to an indefinite term. Leopold continued to care for his grandson, taking delight in his progress (toilet training, speech, and so on), and commencing with the very beginnings of musical training. Marianne saw her son on occasional visits, but in general was not involved in his care. The arrangement continued until the death of her father, on 28 May 1787.

Biographers differ on the reasons for this arrangement. Little Leopold was ill in his infancy, and perhaps needed to be kept in Salzburg for this reason, but this does not explain why he was still kept there after his recovery. Another possibility attributes the arrangement to Marianne's delicate health or her need to take care of her stepchildren. Biographer Maynard Solomon attributes the arrangement to Leopold's wish to revive his skills in training a musical genius, as he had done with Wolfgang. He also suggests that giving up her son was indicative of Marianne's total subordination to her father's wishes.

Relationship with Wolfgang

When Wolfgang was a toddler, Nannerl (four and a half years older) was his idol. According to Maynard Solomon, "at three, Mozart was inspired to study music by observing his father's instruction of Marianne; he wanted to be like her." The two children were very close, and they invented a secret language and an imaginary "Kingdom of Back" of which they were king and queen. Wolfgang's early correspondence with Marianne is affectionate, and includes some of the scatological and sexual word play in which Wolfgang indulged with intimates. Occasionally Wolfgang wrote entries in Marianne's diary, referring to himself in the third person.

Wolfgang wrote a number of works for Marianne to perform, including the Prelude and Fugue in C, K. 394 (1782) and the four Preludes K. 395/300g (1777.). Until 1785, he sent her copies of his piano concertos (up to No. 21) in St. Gilgen.

Concerning the relationship between Wolfgang and Marianne in adulthood, authorities differ. According to New Grove, Wolfgang "remained closely attached to her." In contrast, Maynard Solomon contends that in later life Wolfgang and Marianne drifted apart completely. He notes, for instance, that after Wolfgang's visit to Salzburg in 1783 (with his new wife Constanze), Wolfgang and Marianne never visited each other again, that they never saw each other's children, and that their correspondence diminished to a trickle, ceasing entirely in 1788.

Wolfgang died on 5 December 1791. Sometime around 1800, Marianne encountered Franz Xaver Niemetschek's 1798 biography of Wolfgang. Since this biography had been written from the perspective of Vienna and of Constanze, much of its content was new to Marianne. In an 1800 letter, she wrote:

    Herr Prof. Niemetschek's biography so completely reanimated my sisterly feelings toward my so ardently beloved brother that I was often dissolved in tears, since it is only now that I became acquainted with the sad condition in which my brother found himself.

Later years

Crypt 54 (St Peter's Cemetery, Salzburg): communal vault in which Mozart's sister Maria Anna and Michael Haydn are buried

Marianne's husband died in 1801. She returned to Salzburg, accompanied by her two living children and four stepchildren, and worked as a music teacher.

In her old age, Marianne had her first encounter in person with Wolfgang's widow Constanze since the visit of 1783. In 1820, Constanze and her second husband Georg Nikolaus von Nissen moved to Salzburg. Although Marianne had not even known that Constanze was still alive, the encounter was apparently "cordial", though not warm. Eventually, Marianne did the Nissens a great favor: to help them write a biography of Wolfgang, Marianne lent the Nissens her collection of family letters, including Wolfgang and Leopold's correspondence up to 1781.

In 1821, Marianne enjoyed a visit from Wolfgang's son, Franz Xaver Mozart, whom she had never met during her brother's lifetime. The son had come from his home in Lemberg to conduct a performance of his father's Requiem in remembrance of the recently deceased Nissen.

In her last years, Marianne's health declined, and she became blind in 1825. Mary Novello, visiting in 1829, recorded her impression that Mrs. Berchtold was "blind, languid, exhausted, feeble and nearly speechless", as well as lonely. She mistakenly took Marianne to be impoverished, though in fact she was frugal and left a large fortune (7837 gulden).

Marianne died on 29 October 1829, at 78 years, and was buried in St Peter's Cemetery, Salzburg.

Hi Rad & all,

I only now came across this wonderful soul: Simona Kossack....

She was a nature photojournalist, ecologist, scientist & generally accused of being a witch!

The headline of an article I hope to share a link to states how she : slept with a lynx, & a wild boar on the roof...& a 'terrorist crow'

If you google her you'll find many stories & amazing photographs.

Unfortunately her birth time is unknown, that I know of...

She has asteroid lillith conjunct the moon & square Juno/Cap & Venus/Jupiter Cancer
& these planets are with the nodes of Saturn, Pluto

Her nodes are footsie with the nodes of Neptune, the moon's nodes being square to Ceres/Mercury

Black Moon is conjunct Pluto - in square to Vesta

Pallas is with Mars & opposite Chariklo (in myth the wife of Chiron)- I haven't done much research into Chariklo -
she is a healer & 'shamaness' in her own right, & was a trusted confidant of Vesta (who is argued to be the first 'god/dess' & even more primordial as she is represented merely as a flame, something before form -
I feel Chariklo has a very 'Mary Magdalene' vibe to her......it's the ancient world that gave us Crete....
& so much has been repressed or mis-represented

Simona is truly an amazing soul - I have no idea how I've not known of her until now!

I hope those here enjoy her story, accomplishments & the amazing photos of her with the wild

Birth data: May 30, 1943

There are some wonderful articles & amazing photos but I cannot figure the attachments - they aren't going through, but I hope those intrigued will research her...

[Rad]

Hi Nerissa,

I am posting her chart for you, a photograph, and a link to an article called The Extraordinary Life of Simona Kossak: https://culture.pl/en/article/the-extraordinary-life-of-simona-kossak 
Here is a link to more pictures of her: https://images.search.yahoo.com/yhs/search;_ylt=AwrCwGGclTBhRH8AWhAnnIlQ;_ylu=Y29sbwNiZjEEcG9zAzEEdnRpZANZSFNBTExfMQRzZWMDcGl2cw--?p=the+extraordinary+life+of+simona+kossak&ei=UTF-8&type=dss&hsimp=yhs-102&hspart=mozilla&fr=yhs-mozilla-102#id=74&iurl=https%3A%2F%2Fi.pinimg.com%2Foriginals%2F38%2Fba%2F2e%2F38ba2eb3895802bd0960a97a45cfd225.jpg&action=click

Her natal Lilith 23 Aries, N.Node is 27 Sagittarius, S.Node 16 Gemini. Her natal Amazon is 18 Sagittarius, N.node 26 Taurus, and the S.Node 16 Scorpio.

Goddess Bless, Rad

[Nerissa]

Thank you, Rad, for posting her chart & photo & article!

[Nerissa]

Rad, did you find Simona's birth data- is the chart posted her accurate time,etc?

I'd been thinking about what house her Pluto could be in & I 'felt' all houses BUT the 12th - & then figured that was probably exactly where it was!
It was funny to see this chart the next morning....
Also, her sixth house - her pets (sixth) being unusual (Aquarius)!

I was going to add some thoughts on the chart - but will wait to know if this is her birth time.

I have wanted to ask a basic question - it was said, here on the board, or the Glossary - that an opposition is about 'throwing off' something - I'm not sure I understand what is meant by that.

I've considered oppositions to be very dynamic - you have one planet being the PP of the other - does one or the other planet needs to be 'thrown off' for evolution to proceed - ?

I'd been thinking it was more of an integration of the energies.

She has a Mars/Neptune opposition - & that Mars is ultimately the final dispositor of the chart, if I'm looking correctly.

I was seeing a push/pull between her ego, God & the natural/unnatural pushes or pulls that would manifest in her life - & one of the bottom lines is to reorient her mind/brain - right/left - instinct & intention.

She clearly has, among other archetypes, this sacred warrior(ess) energy very strongly.

I was also wanting to clarify that her Taurus placements would be considered square to the nodal axis, skipped steps - it's a little wide, but I'm thinking these were skipped steps...

Thank you!

BTW - edited to change 'sign' to 'house' as far as Pluto....

[Rad]

Hi Nerissa,

I do not know the birth time for her. The chart I posted is for a noon birth time.

An opposition relative to 'throwing off' something correlates to existing dynamics within the Soul need to be eliminated in order for the ongoing evolution of the Soul to proceed. Understanding the entire birth chart is of course necessary in order to know exactly what those dynamics are.

God Bless, Rad
