Disclaimer: Am no writer please excuse the run on sentences, lapses in intelligent discourse etc....Thanks. Was watching a segment of Plunder the other day inquiring for possible reasons why Barry Morphew is going on a hunger strike in prison-the question prompted me to ask the same question in a Horary chart. Here below is a delineation of the question : "Why is Barry Morphew going on a fast or hunger strike in prison?"
My reflection of the chart follows of why : There is energy in the chart that suggests he wants to pass away. 'Thoughts' about dying, Mercury in Barry's 8th house after the chart is turned, in his significant sign Gemini, looked on with some dignity, in the Tarot, Gemini represents spiritual inspiration, and force, faith. He might be seeking a way to die with dignity by his own hand. I don't know about the death penalty rites in Colorado. Do they yet have the death penalty, but alternately, if his frame would be thin at the time of the administration of the injection of medications to pass, the effect would possibly be swift in a weakened estate, Barry would abstain by fasting.
There is also a possibility that within the throws of fasting, he wishes to obtain or reach a spiritual place to visualize his past sweetheart, some time of imagined or real reality of heavenly spheres, to be forgiven by her before leaving this earthly plane to be judged in heaven...his purported belief system-of a Christian existence being in his heart and mind.
Mercury is the term on the Ascendant-& is deposited in the turned 8th house of transformations. Mercury being in thinking Gemini, he is thoughtful of the situation he is in given over to the houses rulings or activities
Additionally, Mercury at Ext. Tarot reflection 23rd deg.-56 Algol minutes is a micro cosm/macro cosm effect of numbers, each dg. and minute housed within an interpretation of the whole scope of 30 deg. of a sign; The number resolves to an Aries/Aries decanate by my method of Extenuations, a key word to use in its ruling recognition is intentional person directed Activity, a meaning of occult reference of energy being 'self' directed by physical inclinations. Mercury in the 8th house is also meaningful to transformative energy, Mercury is in Saturn's term, melding Astrological elements, subj. matters together. Saturn is in the term of Venus in Gemini in the personal radix 1st house, is full of meaning for Saturn's thoughts of demise, 'thinking' of his past experiences with Susan whom at one time he was in love with, the term of Saturn is on the turned 12th house for Barry (using the 7th house as his personal Ascendant, and Saturn is at the degree of Morte' at the 13th deg. (163 deg. in reality, (which could be interpreted as he doesn't wish to die in jail-that he should endure any long term residency within those walls, so fasting may give him 'his' way of taking directions for taking his own life, and a euphemistic way to somehow come in spiritual contact with and commune with Susan? (XIII is the number for the Tarot Card significance of morte'). As subject matter; Saturn rules dying, rules over elements, aspects of thinking of leaving this world, is possibly forever a theme on his mind.
Mars is significant and rules over his turned 6th house, and naturally rules the 8th house-is making the trine to euphoric Neptune, is it a way he might be able to have a vision to latch on to for seeking his forgiveness before his own passage, a way to be truthful also before the courts with revealing the truth of what really transpired between the two of them, without worry of convoluted deceptions at his trial, if he keeps up with his fast he might be in a highly trance like state, possibly, when the trial does come if he is still alive he will be in a weakened but heightened estate of spiritual cleansing? States of fasting can create types euphoria likened to heavenly awareness.
Jupiter is in his 5th house (creation urges) Pisces right now, a sign of repentance-Mercury is moving to trine Jupiter the reflection in my interpretation is that he wishes to purify his part in the crime against Susan, who was at one time his love.
There is a possibility he may gain leniency in this pursuit, deemed by the courts.
