NATAL ASPECTS
Mars square Jupiter 00:18 (50)
Definition from Braha "How to be a Great Astrologer"
If Mars is square Jupiter, the person is an extremist. He lacks balance and moderation, does not know
when to quit, and is often foolishly fearless. There may be poor judgement and an overly-confident
nature. Many individuals with this aspect are impetuous, biased, and opinionated. He may annoy
others with conceit and exaggerated importance. He may give new meaning to the concept of
arrogance. He excels in sports and loves to compete. He is a natural fighter and wins more often than
not. There is strong sex drive and plenty of energy to get his desires fulfilled.
The person has a tendency to overextend himself. He may vacillate between extreme vitality and
laziness. He may be overly indulgent in pleasures, and should be careful not to consume too many
sweets or oils. As always with Jupiter afflictions, the liver is at risk. Rhough the person lacks common
sense and temperance, success is favored. He takes risks easily and is impervious to the opinions of
others. He is unyielding in his convictions. He is energetic and spirited. He is rarely, if ever, to be
dissuaded from pursuing his goals.
The person may have a tendency to irritate or antagonize others. He enjoys winning, and bragging
about his conquests. There may be difficulties with gurus or religious teachers. The person is intense
in his beliefs, and may be known as a religious or philosophical fanatic. His energy is
outward-directed, and there is a need for introspection and self-reflection. The person must take
care not to produce sloppy or careless work. He may lack sensitivity, and lose friends on account of
selfishness. The person is restless, and lives an active, physical life. He may be prejudiced and have
troubles with authority. Traditional astrological texts declare that the person must avoid gambling and
taking dangerous risks. He should work on modifying his excessiveness and extreme behavior, and
consider the possibility of living a deeper, more rewarding existence based upon moderation,
sensitivity, trust, and generosity. Martial arts master Bruce Lee had the Mars opposite Jupiter aspect
within 3 degrees.
Jupiter trine Neptune (01:20) (49)
(Braha)
"...the person is saintly...does no harm to others and his greatest concern is to help...sympathetic
and compassionate...has the best heart...he is assured a life of happiness and profundity for the rest
of his days...he is sensitive, kind, sincere, and genuine...a great human being.
...there is a strong devotional nature...has unwavering faith in the devine...spiritual, reverent,
inclined towards religious enthusiasm and ecstacy...may live a monastic life...is mystical, intuitive...is
inspired and always shares his religious and philosophical knowledge...loves to pray and may
occasionally rise to lofty heights of bliss...
"...is a visionary...dreamer...there is a need for discipline, responsibility, and practicality if the person
is to make the most of the harmonious Jupiter Neptune aspect. He looks for the best in people and
often misses the flaws and base motives of others. Because his intentions are so pure he has
difficulty understanding corruption, greed, and selfishness. He is bewildered by politics and the "way
of the world". ...is contemplative, receptive, and introspective... creative and he has a wonderful
imagination...likes to consider the possibility of a utopian society where everybody wins.
"...is pleasant and easygoing...artistic...may choose a career in music, drama, photography, or any
endeavor where he capitalizes on his inspiration and aesthetic sensibilities...is romantic and
spirited...highly intuitive and may have accurate insights and hunches...love magic and large bodies
of water...is generous and willing to care for others...will give up anything for his loved ones...There
is an acute sense of right and wrong..may be lazy or too passive...may be overly
sentimental...succeeds in hospital work or any other social service..often receives conspicuously
lucky benefits and is well-loved for his remarkable character. Marlon Brando had the Jupiter trine
Neptune aspect within two and one half degrees.
Venus sextile Jupiter 00:09 (40)
(Braha)
Graceful, charmed, poised, optimistic, has good taste, well-liked, compassionate, sensitive, kind,
sympathetic, high morals, good ethics, loyal, devoted, trustworthy, will never hurt his lover's feelings,
has unwavering faith in God, always expects the best to occur, is happy, enthusiastic, thrilled with
life, avoids all circumstances of potentially or melancholy vibrations.
Uranus conjunct Neptune in Capricorn 02:51(40)
(Braha)
"...will experience intense confusion regarding his independence, self-reliance, and individuality...may
feel no inner confidence regarding his own creativity, originality, and inventiveness...may have the
greatest idealism, romanticism, and visionary nature about the possibilities of human existence...may
grasp, from birth, the concept of maya (illusion) and the futility of materialism...will percieve the
potential for utopian life and help make it a reality...are likely to be extreme escapist tendencies and
therefore the person should avoid drugs and alcohol altogether. Extrasensory perception will be acute
and abundant. Karl Marx, Walt Whitman, Clara Barton (originator of the Red Cross) and Mary Baker
Eddy (founder of Christian Science) were born during the last Uranus Neptune conjunction, which
occurs every 170 years.

TRANSITS AT TIME MISSING
Sept 11, 2000 4am
Transiting Neptune conjuncts Natal Saturn(100)
(from Braha's "How to Predict Your Future")
When transiting Neptune conjuncts natal Saturn, the person experiences a stressful period during
which old perceptions of reality erode and worn-out structures of his life crumble. The personıs
business may disintegrate, his career may end, and certain basic externals of his life may suddenly
collapse. The person finds that he can no longer rely on the foundations upon which he has based his
existence. Even more disconcerting, his convictions, beliefs, and dverything important to him are
proved inconsequential by the uncontrollable circumstances that are destroying his past attainments
and accomplishments. It is impossible to predict exactly which areas of the personıs life will be most
affected. But whatever constitutes the basis of her reality now dissolves in order to help the person
grow.
The puropose of this transit, on the mundane level, is to force the person to move on to new realms
of life because his old reality has outlived its usefulness. An individual who is concerned with his
personal growth confronts the ever-changing nature of existence during this transit and realizes that
realities are different in different states of consciousness. When the person analyzes the reason
behind the profound changes of his external circumstances, he begins to realize that his inner being
has slowly been transformed. As he considers the matter carefully and honestly, he realizes that his
ambitions are no longer what they were. His motivations coming from within - from the soul, psyche,
or spirit - have changed, and, consequently, important features of his life have broken down.
For many, the approximately two-year period when Neptune repeatedlyy conjuncts the natal Saturn
for two to four months at a time is difficult. The person feels insecure, vulnerable, and unprotected.
He is confused, disoriented, and anxious. Many of his resources are gone, he has little control, and he
has lost his authority over others. Worse than this, he has no access to his usual wisdom. He feels
his current problems are caused by his past experience. Had he not undertaken the course of action
chosen long ago, he feels, he would not be in his current precarious situation. The person should take
particularly good care of himself. He is under great stress, whether he realizes it or not, and should
eat well and get plenty of rest. His best strategy is to let go of attachments to the form and
structure of his life and try to flow with nature. He should follow his heart, his instincts, and his
intuitions, and above all, avoid making decisions based upon what is most reasonable, most
conservative, and appears like the right thing to do. The personıs task is to act in accordance with
his feelings and his nature, whatever that happens to be. He may have to endure a temporary but
necessary period of uncertainty and adjustment before moving foreward. Or he may have to embark
on a path that, though relevant now, seems frivolant from his previous perspective. The important
thing is for the person to be true to himself and pursue the most honest, heartfelt desires that he
can.
The person has troubles in the areas of life ruled by Saturnıs natal postition. (Time of birth not
available). He is forced to acknowledge his flaws, and he may suffer a great loss of reputation and
prestige. Activities begun during this transit flounder, intensifying the personıs discouragement and
depression. Business activities are not at all favored. The person has problems with real estate and
building projects. He gets no help from old, wise persons or those in authority. He should surround
himself with loving, supporting individuals throughout this entire period and avoid negative or
pessimistic people who add to his fears and gloom. As for his health, the teeth and bones are
vulnerable, and the person should therefore take calcium in a healthy form. Individuals with arthritis
may experience more discomfort than usual. The person is susceptible to strange illnesses that may
be difficult to properly diagnose.
Mars trine natal Sun (70)
(Lasts only a few days.) from Hand, "Planets in Transit".
During this transit your energies are high, and you feel vigorous and willing to work. At the same time,
your self-confidence is unusually strong. You feel no need to struggle against others, because you
know y our normal energies will carry you through any situation. And since you are able to work from
such a calm position, your work is more effective and more competent than usual.
This period is favorable for initiating all kinds of activity, especially physical activity, but it is much
more likely that you will work on projects that you have started earlier.
You do not feel violently competitive, but if someone offers a challenge, you won't back down.
Therefore this is a good time for all types of athletics. You will enjoy the contest, but you will not
feel driven to win at all costs. The game will seem satisfactory by itself. And you will carry this
viewpoint over into all the activities you become involved in at this time.
This is a favorable transit for situations that require decisive action. Your mind is operating with great
energy while maintaining equilibrium. Consequently you are very clear about your intentions, and you
know what course to follow at every turn.
No matter what you do under this influence, others will see you as someone with a definite
personality. Your vigor and enthusiasm will make a favorable impression, so you will be in a good
position to deal with bosses or other persons in power. In general this is a favorable time for dealing
with men, regardless of your own sex.
If you are involved in a love relationship, this is a favorable transit for that. The present balance
between our needs and your loved one's needs for self-gratification enables both of you to give and
gain from each other.
TransitingSun trine natal Moon (70)
(Lasts only one day.) From Hand, "Planets in Transit".
"...a time of inner peace and balance...serenity...live through your feelings as well as your
intellect...able to make the compromises necessary to getting along with others...Friendships and
love relationships that start under this transit will have important consequences for your future life
and may have a strong effect on your attitudes toward life in general."
SUMMARY
The aspects shows that Zach is a person with vitality and a natural fighter, that is well-liked, a
knowledge-seeker who is religiously faithful and optimistic and enthusiastic about his life, who would
not do anything to hurt those he loves, yet may be "foolishly fearless" and, "...his intentions are so
pure he has difficulty understanding corruption, greed, and selfishness."
This implys that he was abducted by a stranger who did it for greed and selfishness. His character
may have made his abduction easier since he would not see the abductor's ill intentions and his
vitality would give him overconfidence.
The transits show that for Zach "...certain basic externals of his life may suddenly collapse. .. (he)
feels insecure, vulnerable, and unprotected...he has no access to his usual wisdom...if someone
offers(him) a challenge, (he) won't back down..."
Perhaps this means he was given some sort of lure such as a challenge, to get him out of the house.

Do you hear anything about this case? Is there still searching going on by authorities?
This case really tugs at my heart...maybe because I used to live in that area, and because I have
two sons...
4 . "Investigative Search"
Posted by LadyBug on Sep-27-00 at 02:37 PM (EST)
LovelyPigeon, I have 'friends' in Zachary's area who are keeping me updated and IF I could keep up
with all the missing kids I would post anything new . Apparently, for a reason we do not know AMW
did not run the flash feature of Zach on Saturday 9-23. Best to check AMW schedules again. Search
http://www.amw.com
YES the search goes on, but press releases are what I would be more interested in than a news
reporters opinion, which in most missing children cases, is the cause of rumors to flow.
ALSO: I have a direct image above of Zachary from the NCMEC. If there should be is a red X, that
would indicate that Zac has been removed from their files. Sometimes it takes a few days for the red
X to appear. NCMEC is far behind, they need our help.
It just happened that Zachary (Clearwater, FLA) *was only ONE of the 2,000 children that goes
missing each day. *(this information recently released by the FBI).
Place flyers in car windows, contact a trucking firm, ask them to take a pile of flyers along to truck
stops. Zachary could be most anywhere, the state at this time wouldn't matter. HE's been away too
long already, but I never give up hope.

I just found out that Ladybug has this special forum just for missing children, so we are moving the

There is still no news, as in zero/zilch, since the last newspaper article that delved into Zach's

Great idea setting up the web page. I tried to click on e-mail to send 'LadyBug's Missing Children' link
to webmaster of Zachary. My e-mail, Microsoft Outlook98, is not allowing me to send through web
pages, which has been an ongoing problem for me.
Can you send the link from this thread of Zachary from here, or send the web page e-mail address to
me? Important that they know that Zachary has our support and we are trying to help, reaching out
and helping our viewers become familiar with Zachary and the circumstances.
Zachary could be most anywhere. Darn I wish there was a break and he would be found safe
again...it's been too many days, where is the black puppy ? The neighbors might know...

11 . "America's Most Wanted"
Posted by Satin on Oct-07-00 at 10:34 AM (EST)
Ekgman on the St. Pete Times forum reports this:
"I called Gina at America's Most Wanted. Zach's story was scheduled to be run on Sept. 23. It was
cancelled because "Zach's mother refused to give permission for the piece to be run"."
Apparently it was the police who contacted AMW, but naturally the parents need to give permission
for it to be aired.
Still no updates on Zach's whereabouts, I'm afraid. No news stories, nothing. Its as if everyone lost
interest in an investigation since Leah's actions came under suspicion! Let's not forget that those
actions don't even indicate she was directly involved in Zach's disappearance, so the SEARCH must
continue!
25 . "The mother"
Posted by Ashley on Oct-15-00 at 01:59 AM (EST)
could have lied and now she's to afraid to tell the truth. Maybe she doesn't want the program to air
because she fears they will mostly focus on her...and she doesn't want to be the next Susan
Smith,especially if she's innocent of his disappearence.
I know this might anger some of you, but I feel the need to say it anyway. The neighbor with the
website should be looked at very closely.
The mother might have been gone ALL night or possibly longer and left the poor child to fend for
himself... some close by sicko that was watching could have known this and then acted.
Just some thoughts... he is gone under very suspicious circumstances. There's got to be a logical
explanation for it.
Of course, there's nothing logical about a kidnapping, but you know what I mean. The kidnapper is
close,very close. Not some weirdo off the highway who just happen to strike it lucky.

Missing more than a month !
Just as EKGman1 has told us, there is no news and very little co-operation. And he says the fliers
and ribbons are being removed. Visit the forum while at St. Petes and read for yourself the attitude
of the posters while EKG screams out for help, they in turn are blasting Zach's Mother and seems
rumors are what posters enjoy and like to chat about which IMO is worse than following the TABS.
Special 'thanks' to Satin who posted this link which will take us directly to news of Zachary.
Note the last article date...few and far between.

doesn't realize that many people may not need to request flyers from him. All they need is a color
printer to download the picture from his site and print out as many as they wish. I sympathize with
his frustration, but the way he expresses himself on that forum does very little that is positive.
If he rants and raves like that when he tries to communicate with law enforcement he may find
himself being investigated. We all know that criminals will sometimes attempt to involve themselves in
the investigation. I'm not pointing a finger at him, just pointing out that law enforcement may see his
behavior in a very different way than he himself perceives it.
30 . "Frustrated Yes Indeed !"
Posted by LadyBug on Oct-19-00 at 03:06 PM (EST)
Mousey, EKGman has been active in search for Zachary since he went missing. I know of his
frustration and we have talked about it.
Sometimes efforts go to silent ears and the general public would rather condemn parent(s) and
spread gossip than to search for the child. As quick as the information was reported about the
Mother Leah, the ribbons and fliers started to come down. Poor Zachary is the loser.
For instance, where is Zachary's Father and where is Zachary's little black puppy he was seen with
on the day before he went missing. No one is addressing these issues...they would rather gossip
about Leah. Makes one want to scream, and EKGman is doing just that, IMO. However, it's best to
take a break and this may be what EKGman needs to do.
There is much more information regarding security at Sierra Trace, the immediate surrounding area
and the investigation which has been expressed to me by EKGman that I have his permission to post,
however for the safety of Zachary, I have chosen not to do so, because I don't know who is lurking
here.
Take a break EKG, you need it now !
