People with Capricorn/Cancer or even Aries/Libra planets were hit HARD by the Pluto-Saturn transits, many died from heart disease, cancer, murder or suicide. The loss, the 'endings' the obstacles & the destructive force of Pluto are too overwhelming. In fact, so many suicides in 2020 that outweigh the deaths by covid which is not much more dangerous than the flu with a 99% recovery rate.
Suicide leaves a terrible toll on the survivors...they wonder if they are to blame or if there is anything that could have been done to prevent it. I hope you are not blaming yourself. Your friend had serious 'wounding' in the chart. I think she just wanted the pain to end. Period. Suicide has been with humankind since the beginning of time. Sometimes, it is due to physical or mental pain but nowadays many young people are taking their own lives due to despair, bullying, a feeling of isolation. Social media is a two-edge sword, can bring people together but make people isolated & even more lonely. Suicide, as they say, is a permanent solution to a temporary problem but the suicidal person is not able to see past the feeling of hopelessness & despair.
2020 may go down as the most emotionally tense in decades & many good & sensitive people have taken their lives. In Australia, more people have taken their lives than have died of covid. In the U.S. the suicide rates are sky-rocketing.
I joined a 'Survivor Suicide Group' ten years ago & it helped me a lot deal with the pain & grief which is even more painful than a natural death. Only another person who has experienced this can truly understand what you are going through. I'm sorry that your friend died this way & I'm sorry for you & all the people left behind to deal with the loss & sorrow.
God Bless You. Please know that your friend's soul is at peace.
Thanks I saw the moons conjunction to chiron and its opposition to her cap stellium and a lot of her problems in life were related to her childhood wound of abandonment and later on further rejection by her father and yes I think this issue was at play . Also I was aware of the difficult Pluto/Saturn transits - she lost 2 people close to her in the last couple of years (death). I remember not seeing an 'out' for her when I read her chart after her grandmother passed. And also the Mars in Aries square was notable. As well as Neptune transit to her midheaven which I believe mad herself feel uncertain about her public image/life plan.
I think mercury's square to her Sun & Venus may have, also Venus' square to her Mercury and maybe even the Venus-Mars quintile show some sort of relationship/domestic dispute leading up to it.
The close Mars square to Neptune would have meant her actions didnt match her intent and would've set the perfect stage for her not to be found in time.
Also a lot of 6th house/hard mercury stuff going on so I suspect she may have recieved some unexpected bad news about her health/finances.
Thank you
