…continuing with the idea that Maddy is being protected by someone of influence…?
The Portugese police were often criticized for their lack of assistance in searching for Maddy. Is it possible that one of the officers may have been involved, and wanted to protect Maddy from the band of robbers that she’d seen and could identify…. The Gemini 7th house is ruled by Mercury, just as the Virgo 10th house (the authorities) is too….so a coordination between the abductor and the authorities appears a possibility.
The 7th house contains Venus. Venus often does indicate things feminine such as wives, midwives, mothers, singers, beauticians, dressmakers and wedding coordinators. Venus is not always a sign of a woman, it can also be a sign of a man that does a job often done by women, like hairdresser, designer, chef, baker, housecleaners, dancers etc.
Perhaps the abductor took Maddy to hide with his mother or his wife? It would make sense that a woman was involved if the abductor was trying to camoflague a little girl by for example, putting her in a substitute family?
If we use Caroline Luley's approach to tracking the movements of the victim...Maddy's 4th house (north) Pisces (indicates Portugal) direction northwest shows where they started from. They then moved forward to the 10th house (4th home of 7th abductor) direction south to Virgo direction southwest....
The country southwest of the Algarve and Virgo ruled is Africa (Morocco?)....
Countries indicated by Virgo are southern Greece (in October 2013 a British man claims to have been introduced to Maddy on a beach by a man which he later reported) Athens, Turkey, south west France, Toulouse, Paris, Lyons, Brindisi etc....as well as Heidelburg (Germany) and Basel (Switzerland) where recently British police claimed that the kidnappers may be german speaking....
Other countires southwest of Portugal are the Madeira Islands (Portugal) the Azores (Portugal), the Canary Islands (Spain).
Places indicated by Virgo are agricultural - cornfields, hay stacks, greenhouses, granaries, breweries, dairies, chicken ranches or warehouses, storehouses with large amounts of groceries, drug stores or writing studios or places connected with small animals like veterinary services....perhaps she was first held here?
