The Death of Princess Diana, and the Astrology Around It
This article has been extracted from a longer one that I published recently on the subject of extraordinary coincidences that can seemingly only be explained through astrology. It focussed on the work of Dennis Elwell and his book The Cosmic Loom¹. I thought that the story of Princess Diana would be of interest to readers who might otherwise not have noticed the first article.
========================================
She is seen by Elwell as being symbolically connected through the astrological cosmic loom with:
a) Marilyn Monroe. “Both (were) renowned for their beauty and glamour. Both died at the age of thirty-six, in circumstances which were a gift to conspiracy theorists. Both suffered through their association with the most powerful family in the land, in Marilyn’s case the Kennedys” (p254). Their lives finally intersected when Candle in the Wind, originally written as a tribute to Marilyn Monroe, was performed at Diana’s funeral with new lyrics in her honour.
b) other deaths in cars, namely those of President Kennedy, and the Archduke Franz Ferdinand, whose assassination in Sarajevo precipitated the First World War. The connecting factor is the prominence of 9° Virgo in the relevant charts². Non-astrologers, especially those of a sceptical disposition, might respond ‘so what?’, thinking that these must be meaningless, irrelevant coincidences. Elwell, however, makes meaningful connections between all these events: “In the very month of her death Diana had been in Sarajevo in pursuit of her campaign against landmines… For Diana to have made a physical link with Sarajevo in this way, out of her own relationship with the god of war, may not have been unimportant for the invisible mechanisms which underpin events. In her birth chart Mars himself is in exactly the same degree it occupied at the assassination!” (p255).
c) the Duchess of Windsor who, through her first marriage, for ten years was also a Spencer. “The eclipse at 9½° Virgo looped back to two events of specific royal significance. At the death of the Duke… Saturn stood at 9½° Gemini. When the Duchess of Windsor followed him into the beyond, fourteen years later, Saturn was completing half its orbit, had reached 8¾° Sagittarius. Both had died in Paris, and their bodies were flown back to Britain for burial, a fate that was awaiting the unsuspecting Diana.
Diana established a physical contact with the Windsors when she visited their home on the last afternoon of her life… Diana and the Duchess would have had an interesting conversation comparing notes. Both fell in love with a Prince of Wales who had suffered a lonely upbringing by undemonstrative parents. Both were eventually frozen out by their in-laws. Both were glittering celebrities, leaders of fashion. And both became central figures in major British constitutional crises” (p256). He goes on to relate how both women were deprived of their title of HRH (Her Royal Highness).
d) Mother Teresa, who died on the eve of Diana’s funeral. Elwell’s believes their deaths were “signalled in the heavens” and therefore connected. He explains himself thus: “Consider that both deaths occurred at around the time of the aforementioned solar eclipse at 9½° Virgo. During the course of a day the earth’s rotation carries the sun, moon, and planets around the circle of the heavens, so that they all in turn cross the axis of the meridian and the horizon. Now it happens that at Paris the eclipse was exactly on the lower meridian (the ‘midnight’ point), while at Calcutta the eclipse was exactly rising. The precision referred to here is so close that only five minutes on the clock, either way, would make these positions inexact” (pp 257–8, his italics).
e) the Statue of Liberty, and the USA: “As well as her torch Lady Liberty holds a tablet bearing the date July 4 1776, for the Declaration of Independence, and the horoscope for that event has been adopted as the birth chart of the United States. In that chart the Sun is in Cancer, the Moon in Aquarius, and the most plausible ascendant is Sagittarius, all of which happen to be the same placings as at Diana’s birth” (p260).
Elwell points out that there is a replica of the torch of the Statue of Liberty over the Alma tunnel, which Diana passed under on the way to her death, and that this torch immediately became “the focus for a Diana cult in Paris, a place to leave messages and flowers, which as a tourist attraction would soon rival the Eiffel Tower”. He comments: “From early in astrology’s history the ideal of liberty has been connected with Jupiter, and the female ideal with the moon, therefore the Statue of Liberty — and by association her torch in Paris — represents a fusion of these two principles”. He then points out that:
- “at the moment of the crash the moon and Jupiter stood in exact opposition in the heavens”
- “their opposition lay exactly across the Paris meridian”
- “at the same moment in New York, home of the statue, the opposition was exactly across the horizon” (pp259–260).
f) Queen Astrid of Belgium, who gave her name to the road along which Diana’s car travelled on the way to the tunnel. They both “died young, …were killed in a car crash at the end of August. Not only the manner of her death, but her character bears a striking parallel with Diana. Born with the moon in Cancer (Diana had the sun there) Astrid was called the ‘Queen of Mothers’, and took a deep interest in hospitals and creches for children…” (p260).

2. An eclipse which coincided with Diana’s death was at 9½° Virgo. At the death of President Kennedy Uranus had been at 9¾°. At the assassination of the Archduke Franz Ferdinand the moon’s nodes lay across 9° Virgo-Pisces.
