Given the different proposed birth times, the one that looks most probable is around 10:53 am, falling squarely into the Chinese 6th time division. The date of Michael Jackson’s birth was August 29th, 1958. Born in the year of Earth Dog, month of Metal Monkey, day of Earth Tiger, and hour of Fire Snake, Jackson’s chart shows him to have been a hard worker and subject to harsh conditions. True to his chart, he was a musician with pronounced acting, correographic, and dancing talents. The distribution of elements in Jackson’s chart shows 5 Metals, 1 Water, 1 Wood, 4 Fires, and 6 Earths.  The weakest element in the chart is Wood, showing trouble in liver functioning and a tendency to confusion and anger. The chart has 13 Yang elements and 3 Yin elements. With an extreme over-balance of Yang, Jackson was prone to extreme tension. The greatest focus of elements in the chart is 6 Yang Earths. This shows that Jackson’s health was affected adversely by a tendency to severe anxiety, and an unquenchable need for love. The over-balanced Yang Earth adversely affected the spleen, stomach and pancreas function, with a tendency to diabetes, circulatory troubles, and a degenerative condition of the flesh and nose. The almost equally overbalanced Metal confirms the condition of Jackson’s nose and shows skin and intestinal problems. Jackson’s surgeries appear not to have been so much for beauty as they were for cosmetic reasons related to the complex health issues he suffered. Had he survived his heart attack, it is questionable that he would have been able to live much longer in his emotional condition.

The 13 Yang elements in the chart show Jackson as an initiator. He was good at starting projects and needed others to help finish them. Jackson appears to have been a creatively independent and competitive character while being friendly to a lot of people. He thrived in a friendly and competitive mileu.

Jackson’s 10-year luck cycles began at age four. His first luck cycle, running from age four to fourteen, shows Michael traveling and experiencing trouble in the family. Michael’s father abused him. Jackson’s chart shows his father not there to support and guide him, but as a brutal task master. This had a causal connection to Jackson’s tendency to squander money and to be frustrated in love. It appears that it was in his twenties that Jackson came into his own and his father went out of the picture; nonetheless, the harm done in the earlier years engendered the pattern of intense anxiety and neediness that were at the root of Jackson’s health problems. The cycle of age twenty-four to thirty-four shows Jackson riding high. His creativity was flourishing in those years. It is very probable that in those years Jackson had strong romantic interests as well. Possibilities of close relationships, including marriages, show in Jackson’s chart from age fourteen up to the most recent times. Jackson’s chart, nonetheless, shows lack of support from parents, distancing of siblings, and poor relations with children. You may see how all of this, coupled with his anxieties, contributed to his deteriorating health and early death. Had he lived on, and overcome his emotional condition, he would have found genuine love in the cycle of age sixty-four to seventy-four. Jackson’s chart , nonetheless, shows him to have been a loner; it was difficult for him to hold a relationship. The overbalanced element Metal in Jackson’s chart shows that he was prone to grief. Too much grief leads to heart ailments. The vital element in Jackson’s chart is Water. The vital in a person’s chart is that element that the person’s life depends on. Water, Jackson’s vital element, was relatively weak at the time of his birth. It became strong for him at age fourteen and was strongest between twenty-four and thirty-four. It was still strong between thirty-four and forty-four, but began to subside at forty-four. From his mid-forties to around fifty, Jackson’s health was in considerable danger. He had become very fragile. The astrological indications in 2007 show him in an emotionally upset period that weakened him so that he was unable to withstand  the oncoming tide of adverse conditions. 2010 would have been a very dangerous year for him had he survived.

Jackson’s year, month, day and hour of birth reduced to an I Ching hexagram gives us hexagram 7, lines 2 and 3. Hexagram 7 is The Army. It shows Jackson to have been a leader destined to prosper, but if he did not work to improve his internal state he was also destined to have a hard and short life. The astrological signs of the hexagram show Jackson flourishing earlier and becoming exhausted later on. He died in an emotional condition of want.

T. Raphael Simons will be on The Explore Your Spirit with Kala Show this Fall. Check back for the official show date coming soon.

As an update to this blog post, we asked Raphael, why are so many people passing over right now.. read his reply here:

Why So Many People Are Passing Over Right Now

In response to the question why so many people are passing over right now, Ed McMahon, Farrah Fawcett, Michael Jackson, Billy Mays, the flight from Rio to Paris and another flight over the ocean that crashed last night, and so on, I looked at the New Moon Chart and calculated the Part of Death (the Ascendent + the 8th house cusp – Moon). The Part of Death in the New Moon chart is in the 11th house opposite Uranus in the 5th house, and its solstice point is conjunct the New Moon in the 9th house. Translated to plain English, the chart shows surprising deaths in the entertainment field, disasters to vacationers, and fatal accidents in flights over the ocean. To confirm this, the New Moon in the house of traveling was opposite Pluto, universal significator of death. The Part of Death in the Summer Solstice chart is square the Sun, ruler of the 5th house in the 3rd house. This means that the Summer Solstice chart says we are getting news of deaths to people in the entertainment field, as well as vacationers and travelers.
