Elon Musk – genius comes at a price

  

 

Elon Musk appears to be teetering on the brink of, or is in the middle of, an epic meltdown. First he sent out on off-the-cuff and against-SEC-regulations tweet about taking Tesla private to get back at financiers who were shorting his company’s stock and then gave a tearful interview where he admitted working 120 hour weeks and surviving on ambien sleeping pills. He has multiple problems with a possible insider trading investigation, plunging shares and allegations that Tesla knowingly shipped cars with battery flaws. Never mind other peripheral idiocies.

He was born on 28 June 1971 in Pretoria, South Africa, five days before Julian Assange and has a Sun, Mercury in Cancer square Uranus in Libra – creative and uncompromising; with his Jupiter in money-magnet Scorpio in a high-finance conjunction to Neptune and more crucially in a wobbly opposition to Saturn, and a powerfully confident and successful sextile to Pluto, and an impulsive square to Mars in determined Aquarius. His Saturn is also trine Pluto and Uranus giving him a tough-edge as he pushes ahead with innovations. His Moon is in hard-working and worrying Virgo and his Venus in Gemini.

He’s been described as “an iconoclast not bound by normal rules and conventions; a dreamer and risk taker.” And like all geniuses, which he probably is, he lives near the edge.

His Jupiter Saturn opposition is on a see-saw between crazy optimism and deep pessimism, stoking up an acute reaction to failure. He also has a strongly aspected 7th harmonic (septiles) which is highly creative and can also go along with a fine mental balance.

He does have a car-crash Solar Arc Mars square his Sun around now; as well as a discouraging tr Saturn opposition his Sun and square his Uranus this year; plus a dashed-high-hopes tr Neptune opposition his Sun/Jupiter midpoint in 2018/2019. On top of that tr Uranus is opposition his Saturn/Pluto and Neptune/Pluto midpoints this year into early 2019 which are high-stress and crazy-making. 2019/2020 look not much better and it’ll be 2022 before he really gets his mojo back as tr Pluto sextiles his Jupiter and picks up his Jupiter/Pluto midpoint.

  1. Please recheck ADB and you will see that Starkman has rectified his chart giving birth time of 20:42:36 or 8:42:36pm, Asc. 19Aquarius56.
    Using HUBER ASTROLOGY and his current age of 47, we see where his Age Point is, shown by the cross hair circle. This Age Point aspects some natal planets which are on STRESS POINT. A natal planet is stressed if it is just before or conjunct any House cusp.
    Age Point, squares Sun and Mercury which is STRESSED on the cusp of the 6th House, health. Both planets in emotional Cancer
    The Age Point trines natal Mars STRESSED on the cusp of his Ascendant. His Age Point conjuncts nalal Uranus, nerves, ruler of his 12th House of illness.
    Now let’s see if any current transit planets are hitting any cusps. See his trans biwheel. Again, 4 of his transitting planets are sitting on cusps of Houses, thus STRESSING them: tr. Sun, ruler 6th, health, STRESSED on 7th cusp; tr. Jupiter conj 10th cusp, career, work, STRESSED on cusp; tr Neptune, ruler Asc, body, STRESSED on 2nd cusp; tr Pluto, ruler 10th of career, work, STRESSED, on 12th cusp, illness.

    • If Elon’s birthtime is correct, comparing his life to my daughters born San Diego Ca, 23 minutes later at 9:05pm on the same day and year as Elon. She has always been a married soccer Mom, always stressed over money and work and slowly losing her vision due to a genetically poor optic nerve. Now this year she is Just coming out of a huge emotional meltdown of losing her drivers license and most everything else through a nasty nasty divorce. She’s having a tough time rebuilding her life after divorce and I believe it could be years of rebuilding. I wish I could see something happy for her too. Always following the news on Elon Musk, sounds like his life will be in turmoil too for some years to come.

      • your daughter and elon musk are two separate people. There may be natal similarities but is it fair and realistic to use one person as the light house for the follow-on? That’s what free will is about.

  2. When 2 space rocket stages landed after lifting their payloads into orbit the world had to recognize the genius of Elan Musk.

    These short sellers on Wall Street are greedy vultures that contribute nothing to society. Smart investors back genius.

  3. I find it interesting that he has a fraught and quite disturbing relationship with his father, Errol Musk, who recently fathered a child with the 30 year old daughter of a former wife. In an interview with Neil Straus in Rolling Stone in November 2017, Musk apparently cried when speaking about his father and said his father was “evil”. “Almost every evil thing you could possibly think of, he has done. It’s so terrible, you can’t believe it.”

    Is it that transiting Saturn opposing his Sun and the natal Sun square to Uranus could describe this?

    • I’d assign it to a very unhappy person. No mocking here. I can identify with the evil things – I laugh when I conjure statements of pouring chlorox over my mother’s grave and then adding a dump truck of rock salt over it all. Words fail to describe emotions felt.

    • Sort of. It certainly suggests separation. But without a birth time it’s difficult to say about father – Musk doesn’t have that difficult a chart in that regard so it may be the paranoia talking. And he was upset about his father marrying his step daughter which is understandable.
