The Twilight

Published: February 15th, 2017 I Author: Smiljana Gavrančić

Heavens always take care of everything, including things we will write, read, dream about… So one should never worry, and only leave everything to unfold according to the laws of the Universe… Everything that we produce is somewhere, at some level — our own story, our internal need, and everything “lives” in our horoscope, the circle that is highly intelligent, full of astrological symbols the knowledge of which makes it possible to create pictures…

Everything started on June 2, 2003… Young writer Stephenie Meyer (who was born during the Solar eclipse — Sun/Moon conjunction, i.e. new moon close to North Lunar Node at 28º Sagittarius, very close to the Center of the Galaxy — the degree that brings her popularity in the world, which will reflect in titles of her books, as you would soon see…) started to write “Twilight” on that day, the novel with three subsequent ones, many awards and unbelievable number of young fans.

First, in 2005, “Twilight” appeared, then in 2006 came “New Moon”, 2007 was in the sign of “Eclipse”, and 2008 brought “Breaking Dawn”. The inspiration came to her in a dream — she dreamt about the unusual love between vampire Edward and mortal human Bella. It is interesting that only few days before she started the novel (i.e. before she had the dream), on May 31, 2003, there was Solar eclipse exactly at 9º Gemini (in her 12^th house – dreams), which “woke up” her natal Venus (love) through the trine, and Venus rules her 12^th house (dream) from 9º Aquarius, and at the same time it is positioned at the beginning of the constellation Delphinus (romantic love story), so this must have been the crucial moment for her. Since the dispositor of her eclipse is her Mercury at 23º Sagittarius, conjunct with North Node and in sextile with Uranus (suddenly, changes),it was certain that her life was about to suddenly change from the moment she started the novel, and that it would bring success in the whole world (North Node close to Galactic Center). It was how it really happened… By the way, she dreamt the scene happening in the meadow – cusp of 12^th house (dream) in Taurus (meadow).

Since the hour of Stephenie Meyer’s birth hour is unknown, I put her Ascendant at 29º Gemini, for she writes a story (Gemini) she dreamt about (29º – degree associated with the sign of Pisces, Neptune – dream). Further on, Stephenie cannot write (Gemini) without music (Neptune), and her greatest inspiration is the group “Muse“ – which is again in symbolism of series 12, Neptune and 29º! She writes (Gemini) about secret (29º) that is being kept by Edward’s vampire family for a long time (29º)... Since she has not written anything before those 4 books that made her famous, then Ascendant at 29º (waiting) Gemini (books, writing) makes sense. Another important fact that speaks for Ascendant at 29º Gemini is that at 28º Gemini 55’ there is the star Betelgeuse which directly describes New York, and the novel “Twilight” was on the New York Times’ bestseller list for 130 weeks!

Since the books belong to Twilight Saga, it is then quite symbolic to have Sun in that exact phase, and since the Sun has to be in 7^th house, close to Descendant for that to be true, I believe that this fact completes the symbolism in which the Sun is in twilight in eclipse at the cusp of 7^th house (partners), so it all results in the strong inspiration for a very unusual love story… The Sun is also the ruler of 3^rd house (what we write), and in conjunction with the Moon — the title of the second novel is therefore “New Moon”, and conjunction of this New Moon from her chart with North Lunar Node is depiction of the third novel “Eclipse”. By disposition, the Sun (the ruler of 3^rd — what we write) comes to the Ascendant (dawn, the break of a new day) , so the fourth novel is titled “Breaking Dawn”. The very square of ruler of 3^rd house (Sun) with Pluto (vampires) at the cusp of 5^th house (love) that “carries” the trine with Venus (ruler of 12^th — dream) and sextile with Neptune (dream, magic) is depiction of the deep and magic love with a vampire that Stephenie wrote about and dreamt about…

Mystic Venus

Since the dream was the inspiration, then the Venus (love) as the ruler of 12^th house (dream) at 9º Aquarius, at the beginning of constellation Delphinus (romantic love story) at the cusp of 9^th house (publication) is depiction of that dream in her horoscope, containing unusual (Venus) romantic story that will be published. What is interesting here is that the Venus is colored by series 12 from many angles! First, it is the ruler of 12^th house, it is in the sign of Aquarius, the sign of Neptune’s exaltation, it has sextile with Neptune and only several days after her birth  (December 24, 1973), on January 4, 1974 Venus became retrograde at 11º of the 11^th sign, implying some sudden changes! Venus is the universal signifier of a young woman, and it surely represents Bella, the main heroine of the Twilight Saga, who is being torn between two types of love at the beginning of the story.

The storyline from the author’s chart

One love is for her friend, werewolf Jacob, who loves her very much (Mars – wolf, in 11, in Taurus, In the sign of Venus’ domicile). In its retrograde motion, the Venus (Bella) will first square Mars in 11^th house in Taurus (the werewolf friend) across 8º (the degree of transformation) Aquarius / Taurus, so Bella will first have to solve this relationship that is a kind of a problem (square)… When she does that, her true love awaits, the vampire Edward, who also loves her. Retrograde Venus (Bella) will make a trine (lightness of connecting) with Pluto (vampire) at the cusp of 5^th house (love) in Libra (the sign of Venus’ domicile), so this is depiction of a truly deep love, love in a danger, but here the danger (Pluto) aids to this love (Pluto is in Libra, the Venus’ domicile). If you have read novels of watched movies, you have witnessed that in dangerous situations Edward and Bella connect even more, and their love gets stronger…

One thing is certain — both Jacob (Mars in Taurus loves Venus) and Edward (Pluto in Libra loves Venus) love Bella, but since the Venus (Bella) is in the sign of Saturn’s domicile (Aquarius), and Pluto (Edward) in the sign of Saturn’s exaltation (Libra), it is more certain that Bella loves Edward, and she moves towards him… Since Venus is at the cusp of 9^th house (abroad), this is also depiction of Bella who goes to Italy for love, to prevent Edward from committing suicide, and they connect again abroad (Venus is at first in separation trine with Pluto, which depicts their separation, but as Venus starts its retrograde motion, things change and they are together again…). Vampires shine during the day, and when they expose themselves to sun they risk being uncovered, bringing into question the survival of the whole vampire community that may punish them for that by taking away their powers and making them mortal again. That was Edward’s plan — to come to the sun light at noon (Pluto in Libra in square with the Sun) and end himself in that way, because he thought Bella was dead.

Vampire and werewolf

And what about the relationship of werewolf Jacob and vampire Edward? Since they both love the same girl there should be indicators of some kind of mutual animosity. Edward is represented by Pluto in Libra, where Mars (wolf) is in exile, and Jacob is represented by Mars in Taurus, where Pluto (vampire) is in fall! It is very possible that the author herself was somehow “between” two men in her life, one that was her friend, and the other that she loved. Saturn at her Ascendant (herself) is in sextile with Mars in 11^th house (friend) that is in fall in Cancer, and in square with Pluto at the cusp of 5^th house (love, high school), but since Pluto is at the cusp of 5^th house (love), it is clear that Plutonian connection is stronger… Beside, dispositor of her Ascendant’s ruler (Jupiter) is in trine with Pluto in 5^th house…

In the beginning, Bella is shy, scared, she loves her solitude — everything corresponding to the Venus at the beginning of Delphinus constellation (remember Amphitrite who was shy and hid away…).

But, since Venus comes through disposition to the sign of Libra, the sign of her domicile, to 5^th house (love, high school), and in the part of the horoscope we call via combusta (the burning way — from 15º Libra to 15º Scorpio), that is related to Egypt and magic powers of the goddess Isis, who was sorceress — then this is depiction of Bella who, in time and beside Edward, becomes a vampire and a sorceress — gets magic powers, can help herself and others. Bella fitted very good in this new vampire world, she enjoyed her body and her capabilities…

Personal myth awaken in a dream

Since the 12^th house describes dreams, but the personal myth and the inner need as well,  it may be concluded that the dream of Bella and Edward, the dream of eternal love, is the strong inner need of the author, her personal myth, her story that becomes “alive” in the moment it was written… No doubt that all of us read and write stories that are, above all and only — ours.

Horoscope of Stephenie Meyer is in the sign of the cardinal T-square. Saturn at the Ascendant that “contains” Venus (love) from the beginning of Delphinus constellation (romantic story) is in opposition with Sun/Moon conjunction at Descendant (twilight), and Pluto at the cusp of 5^th house (love with the vampire in high school) is the central planet of T-square, the one squaring the opposition. Since the main accent is always on the central planet of T-square, then the solution here is in Pluto’s dispositor, i.e. the Venus at the beginning of Delphinus constellation, at the cusp of 9^th house, so publishing of this unusual romantic story with the vampire is the right channel for Stephenie to make her dream come to life…
