Hi Team Astrology,
I got the notion to look at Tom Brady’s chart on the days of his Super Bowl losses. What reflects those losses? And is there anything similar in his chart on Sunday?
So a few notes on his Super Bowl loss dates:
Feb. 3, 2008 – Most significantly to me, this game was in the window of the Feb. 6 Solar Eclipse opposing Brady’s natal Saturn; with T Chiron-T Neptune-T Mercury R also opposing his Saturn – suggesting professional challenge, highlighted opposition, and lack of success, perhaps. According to wiki, the game was close with defense dominating until the Giants scored a winning touchdown late in the 4th.
Feb. 5, 2012 – Exciting, potentially upsetting T Uranus-T Venus were squaring his natal Venus, ASC ruler. The Patriots were leading with a close score in the 3rd and the Giants scored game-winning touchdown late in the 4th.
Feb. 4, 2018 – Again eclipsed, very personally, on Jan. 31 with the Lunar Eclipse conjunct his natal Sun (exact) – suggesting a sensitizing, unsettling, or uncomfortable spotlight on performance and inability to shine, perhaps.
Well delving into his past was fun research, but, turns out, not much help to me for making a prediction this year — except to say the GOAT won’t have eclipse interference to worry about at this SB.
Some ideas about his chart Sunday, with:
- A T Mars trigger squaring his natal Sun-Saturn being highlighted by a T Sun-T Mercury opposition – troubling, challenging, fierce competition.
- T Saturn-T Venus-T Jupiter are squaring his natal Uranus being opposed by T Uranus (conjunct Chiron) and they are opposing his natal Sun – that’s a transiting Fixed Grand Cross potentially reflecting dynamic tension in a test of the GOAT’s reputation (T Saturn) up against young standout Mahomes and team (T Uranus), presenting a fun, rewarding and potentially celebratory opportunity for Brady (T Jupiter). [Seeing T Jupiter opposing his natal Sun made me wonder what was happening the last time Jupiter was in this position in February 2009 – something personally significant? Yes, very! But not a Super Bowl (Brady was injured and didn’t play 2008 season and his team didn’t make it to SB). He asked Gisele Bundchen to marry him in February and they were married 10 days later on February 26, 2009.]
-What to make of the tight transiting Chiron-natal Moon conjunction that activates his natal yod – Moon|Uranus-Mercury? I thought about increased sensitivity and intuition related to his Numero Uno instincts, training, and drive (6th House Aries Moon rules MC), extraordinary sports play (angular 1st House Uranus rules his 5th House), deft preparation and perception (Mercury in Virgo). I’m not that familiar with Chiron and would be interested in how others interpret this. Could this suggest a rise in emotions, love, and connection to others with a win? Or painful realization, mental or physical, with a loss or injury?
