Chart (Noon Solar, 8/11/1990, Wallingford, Ct) below. The media has been so full of this case, there’s probably no way you aren’t aware of it. This woman, who has a degree in Biology and worked as a labor and birth delivery nurse, killed her 3 little children and then attempted suicide. Probably first you want to consider that Fixed Grand square where the Sun is opposed by the Rx asteroid Child with the squares of Cupido (family) & Mars. Arachne offers the ideas of ”Trapped” and ”wrapped around.” Then Niobe in 20 Taurus (with Mars) offers ”sorrow through children” and Osiris in 21 Aq indicates death. To kill the children, she wrapped a cord around their necks and strangled them. The baby lived a few days after being found; the older two were already deceased.
Infanticide (the killing of young ones) can be represented by Medea (29 Vi) and Holmes (15 Leo.) Leto #68 means ”to kill” and it’s in 19 Virgo, the axis of the solar MC. One of the points for Serial Killers (<—and that just means to kill more than one, which she did) is Unruh #24045 and it’s in 03 Aq, Rx—also with the Solar MC. Another Serial Killer factor, Brophy #8800, is in 17 Taurus (that Sun pattern) and still another, Holmes #5477, is in the Aries Axis from 15 Leo. As you check 15 Leo, you find Pluto and a suicide point, Erigone, in 15 Aq, Rx. Note the presence of Hopi with Erigone. While we often see Hopi as related to racism, it is also Knives and Cutting. Part of Lindsay’s suicide attempt was to cut her neck and wrists. (She then went to the second floor and fell from a window. With trauma to her spine, she is currently unable to walk. One point for spinal injury is Young #2165 and hers is in 14 Taurus…with Erigone, etc.)
As well as Orpheus (06 Sag) for Death, see also Morden in 24 Libra and Nephthys in 23 Aq opposing Ceres (children) in 23 Leo.
On the late afternoon of January 24, 2023, Lindsay asks her husband, who was downstairs working, to go to the store and to also pick up dinner. He leaves around 5:15 pm. When he returns at 6:00 pm, he finds her outside, bloodied following her leap from the second floor. He runs into the house and finds his children. The older two are deceased; the baby is still almost alive. There was clearly a plan. Note: It is entirely possible for a person in a psychotic episode to plan and carry out a plan. Under many circumstances, a partner would recognize such an episode—but not always.
The claim is that she was suffering from Postpartum Psychosis. Even though the baby was 8 months old, this is still possible. Among the points for Puerperal Psychosis is Kelly #22312 and hers is in 04 Leo (= Leto, to kill, in 19 Virgo.) Another factor for it is Baker #2549 in 07 Libra and that axis includes both Uranus and Ceres as well as the Solar Chart Ascendant. For additional factors for the issues mentioned for this incident, see the Medical and Mundane sections of Research Access.
With her Psyche (07 Gemini) axis including Orpheus, Pandora, the Moon, the Aries Point, Askalaphus, Virchow, Pluto and Erigone, if you were on the jury who just heard her legal case and didn’t reach a full agreement, how would you have voted? Was she guilty of murder or does mental illness offer her a pardon?
