MARK TODD, LISA CROPP AND JIMMY CHOUX'S TRAINER
25 Oct 2011History has produced some titanic Astrology versus Religion battles, with the great science always coming out on top.
Astrology’s chief weapon is the placement of Venus in Aries, the classic for the easily bored, constantly seeking new challenge and adventure.
Very dangerous for " through sickness and health, until death do us part etc " with no better example than a one-time trainee catholic priest who moved on and ultimately became a sports broadcaster, renowned for his heavy drinking and spasms of anger which could involve issuing " strong challenges " to persons who did not believe in the virgin birth !
Ultimately this fellow’s adventures included the cardinal catholic sin---leaving the wife and 3 for another woman !
Recently I fielded an inquiry from an 18 year-old Indian lass, also with Venus in Aries, seriously afflicted by erratic Uranus and mysterious Neptune, which would give her the romantic instability similar to a chap named SONNY BILL WILLIAMS....
Religion ? Hindu, Punjab, sikh.. ?
“ I’m a muslim.”
Almost worthy of an expletive, trying to imagine a thrillseeker hidden behind the black hood in a middle-eastern compound and hardly leaving the premises.
There is case history on " Venus in Aries muslim female," as per one I met in Epsom a few years ago, who had conducted her own " unveiling " and left the husband and child back in Iran and landed in New Zealand alone and penniless.
Ultimately becoming pregnant to a Lebanese catholic chap still living at home with his very traditional parents. !
Major adventure, remembering her oriental description of ARIES DRAGON, often the ultimate in uncontrollability....think controversial jockeys Brian Constable and Chris Johnson, or the late rock and roller Tommy Adderley, chronic fraudster-gambler Leicester Monk; actor Russell Crowe or rugby villain Quade Cooper.
Another Venus in Aries possessor is the very gifted, controversial horseman Mark Todd, who’s had some incredible success during 27 years near the top of equestrianism as well as during his brief spell as a thoroughbred trainer.
With several separations in his " marriage " as well as the gay sex and cocaine scandal, although the latter is more relevant to the notorious MOON-NEPTUNE conjunction.
Closeness of the ultra-sensitive Moon and Neptune is one of the classics for the extreme genius who can suddenly spin out and go wandering, and be so difficult to manage, with their Scorpio positioning in the natal of M Todd so very aligned with sexual fantasies and drugs. But any Moon-Neptuner doesn’t handle intense pressure for too long before they have to go AWOL. i.e Lisa Cropp, the late Terry Clark, Charlotte Dawson etc and John Bary, trainer of NZ’s current pin up galloper Jimmy Choux.
J Bary has been on a major roll this year, courtesy of benevolence from both Neptune and Uranus. Consider his Venus ( Scorpio 0.12 ) receiving a wonderful trine from Neptune in the 0 degrees of Pisces until February next year. Also the Sagittarian Moon ( 0.44 ) enhanced by Uranus around Aries 0 until late December.
Hardly surprising that Jimmy Choux came close to being Australasia’s middle-distance champion with last week’s second in the $3 million Cox Plate at Moonee Valley.
Then it changes very quickly for J Bary around February when nebulous Neptune gets closer to Pisces 0.44 and consequent harassment of the 0.44 Sagittarian Moon until December 2012. And Neptune anti the natal Moon can be a real bummer---- Jonah Lomu’s currently experiencing its devastation, along with another fellow who lost his high-profile position after displaying some extreme mental violence.
It’s quite feasible that the very talented J Bary will get very desolate about the appalling state of NZ racing next year and start thinking seriously about pissing off elsewhere...like Todd, Cropp, Dawson and co do so frequently. With or without Jimmy ?
FOOTNOTE:
The deeply troubled thoroughbred sector is chewing over some more mental violence from a licenseholder renowned for his abuse and threatening behaviour. And also making some vicious attacks on the NZTR CEO Greg Purcell . From elsewhere:
" What I can tell you is that the victim is a lovely lady from TIMARU who may or may not be listed as being in TRAINING PARTNERSHIP with her husband. They are thoroughly decent people. Apparently this offending trainer used his own chatsite to discredit and slander this female person describing her as a "pig". The offensive material on that chatsite was removed shortly after.
So in response this lady sent to GREG PURCELL copies of the disgusting emails she had received from this SOUTH AUCKLAND trainer and attached to them a series of filthy emails that were sent to another female trainer from CHRISTCHURCH.
From what I can gather, GREG PURCELL has issued some form of warning against this repeat offender [Referred to in the THOROUGHBRED MONTHLY] where he may well have taken the matter up with MIKE GODBER the OPERATIONS MANAGER of the RIU rather than "BOY GEORGE" because of the now known and/or rumoured relationship between this SOUTH AUCKLAND trainer and our CHIEF STIPE.
