I love name destiny. Something that I intuitively noticed as a teenager. The aptly named- Oscar- because he deserves one? PIST orius is someone who is PISSED OFF notoriously.
I started writing this article last year when the terrible murder of his girlfriend Reeva happened on Valentine’s day. Let’s revisit the murder night through the Astrology lens. Look at the chemistry of Reeva Steenkamp and Oscar and the future outcome of his trial.
Reeva Steenkamp and Oscar Pistorius in happier times, hero of South Afirca
OSCAR Pistorius born November 22 1986 known as The BLADE RUNNER.
He has two MASTER NUMBERS in his birthdate 11/22. 11= STRENGTH 22= THE FOOL

Oscar is a double amputee Olympic and Paralympic runner, nicknamed BLADE RUNNER who has won gold medals in races in the Olympics in 2011 and made history in 2012 as the first double leg amputee to run with non disabled athletes.
On Feb 14 2013 Oscar at 3:20 am the initial call for help came from Oscar about the “accidental shooting.” Pistorius claims he thought he shot a burgler in his bathroom through a closed door and not his model girlfriend Reeva Steencamp. The paramedics and police arrive at 4: 15 am to find Reeva already dead and that Pistorius has moved her body from the crime scene. The number one NO NO in a crime scene. There is evidence that he called his father first to get his PR machine working before the police arrived. Because of his celebrity status he was granted bail and allowed to travel outside S.A. to compete.
His Trial runs March 3-20 in Pretoria South Africa and is televised live. He has pleaded not guilty.
OSCAR born at 10:30 a.m. has his Sun is at the Most critical of all degrees 29 SCORPIO, The FIXED WATER sign of death, riches, extreme emotions, rebirth, obsessive, fanatical, power and control freak, secrecy in the 10th house of worldly fame and renown. His MOON in fiery passionate, I AM THE KING, vain, power-hungry, ambitious, fixed, LEO. In the 6th house he has worked hard to overcome physical disability through sheer LEOnion pride and willpower. He is totally focussed on accomplishing his goals to be the top in whatever it is he puts his feelings into.
His ASCENDANT is Aquarius, showing a rebellious, cool, detached, lover of technology, an outsider, someone who has always felt that he is outside of the law. Also Fixed Sign, he is ultra stubborn and focussed. His prosthetic legs are state of the art technology.
His MERCURY is RETROGRADE and in and on the 10th house cusp indicating he will be communicating to the world in a big way.
VENUS is RETROGRADE in SCORPIO in the 9th house, a very karmic influence. Venus Retrograde indicates, especially as it conjunct to PLUTO in SCORPIO, that Oscar and whatever lady love {Venus} he was with in his life, was indeed a past life karmic one. This combination makes OSCAR extremely sexually magnetic and irresistible to women.Usually his love affairs were characterized by being fast, very intense, very powerful, sexual, s & m, jealousy, controlling, possessive, demanding, obsession and VIOLENCE. He still has fanatical legions of supporters.
The women he was involved with and especially REEVA, may have been someone who killed or hurt him in a past life. This reveals a duel to the death through the disguise of magnetic attraction of a passionate hate/love affair. Reeva’s chart would mirror Oscar’s. I haven’t even gotten there yet.
VENUS Retrograde conjunct PLUTO square a LEO MOON is a recipe for dark, murderous, black-hearted, obsession, hate/love, exactly what has occurred in their lives. If Reeva had only gone to a dating Astrologer before she hooked up with him they would have told her run for your life.
His MARS at 27 degrees Aquarius in the 1st house is fixed detached, steely cold, and is Square to his late late Scorpio SUN.
He is definitely a warrior, a fighter, with incredible will power to accomplish great things as an athlete, but also defensive, anger issues, controlling.
JUPITER in PISCES in the 2nd house of resources, money,is square to Uranus in Sagittarius in the 11th. Jupiter, ruler of Pisces can make people very spiritual, genius’s or addicted personalities, unconscious, self-undoing and completely deluded. Oscar’s energy, moods and feeling- stop and go on a dime. Very erratic chaotic emotionally. This also makes him a psychic sponge indicating that whatever Reeva had in her Natal chart would very much influence Oscar’s responses. He could feel Pisces self-pity one minute, and totally shift the next. This gives him a Jekyll and Hyde personality. They would call it Bi-polar these days.
SATURN at 10 degrees Sagittarius in the 10th house is square to Jupiter. Saturn rules Oscar’s father, he called him first right after the murder before he called the police. Saturn is karma. Jupiter rules Sagittarius, truth telling, justice, optimism, ethics. Yes his TRIAL- symbolized by both Jupiter and Saturn in Sagittarius are world wide headlines. He thinks he and his money, power, riches {Saturn} are a law unto themselves. In Pisces he may be able to lie to himself and others and make himself believe its true.
NEPTUNE in Capricorn quincunx his LEO Moon. He has worldy power but is totally out of touch with his heart. Moon in Leo is heart.
REEVA was born August 19 1983 in Capetown South Africa.

She is a strong willed, passionate, I am woman here me roar LEO in the 10th house of worldy fame . She must be THE QUEEN. She has MARS in LEO at 3 degrees EXACTLY conjunct to Oscar’s MOON. This is an very aggressive emotional tug of war already. Pride, control, Reeva is aggressive and will do whatever it takes to get her way. She has a very difficult SATURN PLUTO CONJUNCTION with Saturn at 29 degrees Libra squaring that proud Leo Mars. This is the mass murderer signature. This is a very dangerous, combination to have. She would be attracted to powerful, dangerous, abusive, angry men. Power struggles, ego battles, literally a karmic death in a relationship. Everyone in Reeva’s generation was born with that Saturn Pluto conjunction in Libra. It is a soul battle for equal relationships. But not everyone ends up tragically killed as Reeva was.
HER LEO Sun is opposite Oscar’s Mars in Aquarius. EGO battles, which squares His Scorpio 29 degrees Sun -who is incontrol? which is conjunct to her Jupiter Uranus and his SATURN in Sagittarius. VERY intense ego control issues.
Reeva, like Oscar, also has Venus Retrograde in her 10th house in Virgo. She was a perfectionist, a nit picker, highly intelligent. Venus is squared by Chiron in Gemini on her Descendant- vulnerable to be hurt through infidelity in love and a double talking immature lover, she is ambivalent in relationships. Chiron is opposing Jupiter and Uranus in conjunction in Sagittarius on her Ascendant which also Square her VENUS. This aspect bespeaks high flying optimism, unexpected chaotic love affairs. VENUS square Uranus is independance and unpredictability in her passion in how she loved. Her Venus In Virgo could be negative and never satisfied.
Reeva’s Moon was at 10 degrees Capricorn in her 2nd house of resources, values. Mars in Leo is in quincunx to her Natal Moon. You know who’s Moon is also Quincunx to her natal Moon. They definitely did not relate emotionally or see eye to eye. They were emotionally incompatible and spoke different emotional languages. She could be very angry and as Capricorn holds emotions in, passive aggressive.
REEVA also has LILITH at 17 degrees Aquarius, the Shadow Queen, the supposed succubus, incubus, feared, the one who rejects. Lilith is in a wide square to Occar’s Sun. 12 degrees is admissible to the Sun. Lilith doesn’t debate, she does everything on her own terms. for that she is hated by men and feared.
See Oscar and Reeva’s synastry chart- the two charts together.
You can see the difficult connections between the two. HIS SOUTH NODE in LIBRA – this is a recreation of a past life relationship, His SN is conjunct to her SATURN Pluto conjunction in Libra. Death. They were inexorably drawn together to try to create new karma between them. His Natal Venus Pluto conjunction is close to her SATURN PLUTO one. As heavy as it gets.
Reeva’s North Node in Gemini is conjunct to Oscar’s CHIRON indicating that he was most vulnerable to her own duality, fickleness, toying with him nature. They were quite a pair. This shows that they were karmically drawn together to attempt to work out a past life relationship. They had a magnetic attraction and repulsion to each other. This happens when one or both parties are unconscious. Most people are. This is a totally toxic relationship.
On Valentine’s Day 2013.
All of the planets are aligned on the left side of Oscar’s natal chart indicating that he was in the grip of his own Unconscious emotions. transiting Saturn conjunct his Pluto, Mercury and there’s that murderous aspect I wrote about above. Also MArs Mercury conjunct his Jupiter conjuncts to mixed up communications, like his story that night. The Sun in Aquarius is conjunct to Oscar’s Natal Mars and is square to his Natal Sun in Scorpio. He would have been royally pissed off and quick to ego and anger.
MARS and Mercury are conjunct to his Natal Jupiter in Pisces. Illusion, delusion, drunken or drugged. and in square to his NATAL SATURN. There must have been drugs involved.
transiting Venus, the woman, is at 14 degrees Aquarius conjunct Oscar’s Ascendant and Squaring transiting Saturn in Scorpio conjunct to his MIDHEAVEN and MERCURY. It was not a good Valentine’s day aspect for love.
PLUTO LORD of DEATH is at 10 degrees of Capricorn EXACTLY on Poor Reeva’s natal MOON. This was the karmic climax of her life.
NEPTUNE CHIRON and MARS are in conjunction in Pisces exactly opposite her Natal VENUS. There may have been drinking and or drugging although no mention of it was made to my knowledge. Blurred lines, delusion, illusion, obsessiveness and anger thrown at REEVA consciously or unconsciously.Transitting Venus is conjunct Reeva’s Lilith, activating her ability to be indifferent or turn off her partner. She was not willing to compromise.
So what will happen to remorseful Mr. Pistorius? Judge Thokozile Masipa is a black female and I have been corrected there is no jury system in South Africa the Judge will decide.
Saturn just went Retrograde at 23 degrees Scorpio very close to Oscar’s SUN and Saturn is squaring his Natal Mars in Aquarius. SATURN- karma, limitations, obstacles, the weight, punishment will cross Oscar’s Sun at this year’s end. A once in 29 year occurrence.
CHIRON the wounded healer is sitting right on his Natal JUPITER in PISCES. Jupiter is Justice, and in Pisces, there is compassion, forgiveness There is also in distinction, fog, ineptitude, delusions of grandeur, and real delusions, as already happened at the crime scene and last year at Oscar’s bail. CHIRON is squaring Oscar’s Natal Chiron in Gemini- a double talking and his Saturn in Sagittarius which is an Honest Judicial system. Sagittarius also rules the law..
ON the opening Trial Date March 3 2014
Mars, the male hero, symbolizing Oscar is Retrograde in Libra, so he is in detriment. Mars is squaring Venus in Capricorn. Mars will cross Oscar’s South Node at 20 degrees Libra soon indicating his past relationship is being reviewed because of his aggressive behaviour.
THE MOON is at 12 degrees Aries exactly where it was on the night of the murder.
The trial is supposed to last for about 3 weeks but during Mars and Saturn retrograde and as Oscar is also a huge hero in South Africa it may take along while before the judge decides.
JUPITER at 10 degrees Cancer turning DIRECT on March 6 is Trining Oscar’s Natal Pluto in Scorpio and his Natal Jupiter in Pisces at 13 degrees forming a GRAND WATER TRINE and Chiron the wounded healer is also at 13 degrees Pisces. This makes the justice system very, very sympathetic to him. He admits he killed her but by accident and not premeditation. I believe that he will found guilty of a 2nd degree of some similar smaller punishment and will have to pay community service, or be given a compassionate shorter jail sentence.
The Solar Eclipse April 29 is at 8 degrees of TAURUS directly on Oscar’s Natal PLUTO.
PLUTO is entering Oscar Pistorius 12th house of karma for a very very long time. He will have to live with himself. Reeva’s family and friend’s need closure. Oscar as a wealthy brand, as a hero, is living out the Archetypal hero’s journey of Icarus. He is not beyond the law. There will be fair justice but also compassion.
