Whenever I find some time off I visit friends from my
youth.
The fragments of our youth for all of us have
remained preserved in books, music or films that we used to love at the
time. The film that reminded me of early 1980s, International Film
Festival, scrambling to get the tickets, and “binging” on movies is
Amadeus directed by Milos Forman.
One of the possible ways of learning astrology is
to, while watching a movie about a historical figure, have on you a
birth chart and identify in it what you've see in the film. For
instance, it is a wonderful astrological experience to recognize in a
birth chart a line from a movie.
Working on a film about W.A.Mozart, its director,
Miloš Forman, belonging to European film school, has certainly stuck to
the indisputable facts from Mozart's life and therefore, you can be sure
that the facts about Mozart's life shown in the movie are accurate.
Before watching the film about Mozart, on the
Internet I found the details necessary for casting his horoscope. The
details are as follows: 27/1/1756
Salzburg(13E02, 47N48), 20:00 PM LMT +00;00
Comfortably sinking into an armchair and waiting
for the end of the opening credits, I took a glance at the birth
chart...I was puzzled.: one of the greatest composers in the history of
music was born with Virgo Ascendant, the sign in which, according to the
classical astrology, Venus and Neptune, the planets symbolizing art and
music, are in descent and decline ...In addition, in its tenth house
(the greatest achievement, success), the great Mozart has planet
Mars(!), the planet which is not closely connected with art...as the
film story about Mozart’s life unfolded, this birth chart was getting
more peculiar...the cusp of his fourth house begins in Sagittarius ruled
by Jupiter in his second house, which would indicate that Mozart was a
wealthy man at the end of his life (fourth house). However, in the movie
about Mozart’s life it was completely the opposite: Mozart is deeply in
debts and barely makes ends meet...Naturally, since many years before
that I had concluded that one should believe in ASTROLOGY rather than
astrological STATISTICS (someone’s records of someone’s »correct« time
of birth), I immediately started to look for the accurate Mozart’s
horoscope by the means of astrological logic.
I went back to the beginning of the film:
Salieri, a court composer, comes to the court to meet young Mozart whose
music he greatly admired. He enters the room where COOKIES and CAKES are
displayed, he hears cheerful giggling of two lovers (Mozart and his wife
Constance) and, at that moment, camera shows Mozart’s LEGS FROM HIS
KNEES DOWN TO HIS FEET.
In terms of astrology, a director of a movie,
when featuring a person who EXISTED, who was real, in his first scene of
appearance of the main character in the movie, will always show HIS
ASCENDENT!
Thus, in this film we “meet” Mozart in the room
with COOKIES and CAKES in astrology ruled by Libra (Venus).
Immediately after that we see HIS LEGS FROM HIS
KNEEWS DOWN TO HIS FEET. This is only natural because his Venus (ruler
of Libra) is at the last degree of Aquarius which, in astrology, rules
LEGS FROM KNEES DOWN TO THE FEET.
And as we carry on ...we see MOZART IN LOVE WITH
HIS WIFE CONSTANCE. In astrology, to be in love means to be under the
wonderful influence of VENUS. In that scene he is with his wife
Constance: certainly, because in the genuine Mozart’s horoscope (Libra
Ascendant) there is almost exact trine of Venus (Ascendant ruler-him)
and Mars (ruler of his seventh house-wife); they are IN LOVE-naturally,
because in astrology, Venus trine Mars symbolises an IDEAL MACH OF A MAN
and A WOMAN. In addition, his wife is GERMAN, a FOREIGNER (Mozart is
Austrian) but of the same GERMANIC ORIGIN. Quite naturally, because in
Mozart’s accurate horoscope with Libra Ascendant, his seventh house
begins in Aries (Germany), with Mars in the ninth house (a foreign
woman) however in Cancer (the same Teutonic genetics). And at the very
end, when Libra is an Ascendant, there is NEPTUNE in his tenth house!
Thus, with (ASTROLOGICAL) certainty I can argue
that one of the greatest composers in the history of music W.A.Mozart
was born under Libra Ascendant.
This story has a wonderful continuation. After I
had established Mozart’s accurate horoscope I said to myself that I had
to write the text about it… However, I didn’t manage to make time for it
for, to write a serious astrological analysis I would have to read a
number of books on Mozart’s life and I just could not find the time for
it.
In any case, the heavens were not willing to let
me write this text. Some three months ago, my telephone rang and I
answered it. On the other line was my ex-student Dušan Manojlov. He
wanted to know when I would be available to see him. On the agreed day
he came to my place, sat in the armchair and said with a thoughtful
expression on his face: »...I’ve been thinking about something for a
long time...I believe that Mozart’s Ascendant is not Virgo but LIBRA!!!«
I gave him a flabbergasted look which was
immediately replaced by my enthusiasm. Dušan, having an exalted Mercury
(to understand) in Aquarius (astrology) in exact sextile with Uranus
(astrology) is certainly not one of the »astrologers« inclined to
stealing my ideas and presenting them as their own; with this aspect, he
certainly does not need to do that. My enthusiasm was caused by this
LIVING PROOF that the students of my school of astrology are able to
notably learn the most important thing—TO THINK LIKE ASTROLOGERS, and
that I as a teacher was completely successful in getting them to do
that.
Without further ado, I leave you to the
remarkable Dusan’s text. (Dusan is currently serving his compulsory
military service); this text on Mozart is Dusan’s FIRST astrological
text! My wholehearted congratulations...!
