Okay, so I got curious about Griselda Blanco, you know, the “Cocaine Godmother”? I wanted to see if her astrological chart could shed any light on her… intense personality. So, I decided to dive in and see what I could find.
Getting Started
First, I needed to find her birth details. It took a bit of digging, but I eventually found her birth date, time, and place: February 15, 1943, at 4:20 AM, in Cartagena, Colombia.
Building the Chart
Next, I used an online astrology chart calculator. There are tons of them out there. I simply entered Griselda’s birth information into the website and the calculator to generate her birth chart. Boom! There it was, a circular map of the planets at the moment she was born.
First Impressions
Looking at the chart, a few things immediately jumped out. She’s an Aquarius, which can be known for being rebellious and unconventional, but also intelligent and independent. That fits, right?
Key Aspects
I started looking at other placements and noticed strong aspect, and it was Mars(the planet of energy, action, and desire), in a challenging aspect to Pluto(planet of power, transformation, and obsession). This could be an indicator of someone who is driven, ambitious, and maybe even ruthless in pursuing their goals.
There was a strong presence of planets in fixed signs (Aquarius, Taurus, Leo, Scorpio). Fixed signs are known for their determination, stubbornness, and resistance to change.
Putting it Together
It’s not about saying astrology made her do anything. But, seeing these strong aspects, and fixed signs in her chart, that are the indicators of power, obsession, and a will, it paints a picture of someone who was wired to be incredibly forceful and perhaps, drawn to control.
Final Thoughts
It was a super interesting deep-dive. Astrology can’t explain everything, but it did offer a few “aha!” moments when I thought about Griselda’s life and how she operated.
