Astrology of Watson and the Double Helix

James Dewey Watson KBE, ForMemRS (born April 6, 1928), is an American molecular biologist, geneticist, and zoologist, best known as a co-discoverer of the structure of DNA in 1953 with Francis Crick. Watson, Crick, and Maurice Wilkins were awarded the 1962 Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine "for their discoveries concerning the molecular structure of nucleic acids and its significance for information transfer in living material".

From the above table we can see that in early 1953 Watsons progressed MC had reached a trine aspect to his natal Uranus [4ar06]. Radix Mercury [22pi35] and Venus [23pi32] on one side and TNP Hades [6ar11] on the other contain Uranus with Uranus more closely conjunct Hades. . The stars in this area are Markab [22pi41] , 5Lacerta [4ar27], 4Lacerta [5ar06], delta Reticulum [6ar15] and alpha Reticulum [6ar41]. The extract below from Nick Fiorenza shows clearly that astrologers have understood this area to be related to the DNA. Conjoining Markab from the very southern sky are Beta Reticuli and the Zetas of Reticuli--the dual zeta stars. The stars of the Reticuli are of the DNA--the urn of the soul--the molecular vessel through which soul expresses. Alpha and Beta Reticuli embody the purer aspects of the reticule--the ability to see things where they truly are in the greater evolutionary context--providing holographic awareness literally in the DNA-to allow the soul to manifest in its un-aberrated true perfection. Alpha is the foci of the Reticule and is the sacred geometry of the DNA refined to crystal clarity. Beta Reticuli, lying at the same distance from Earth as the Zetas of Reticuli, refers to the administration of genetic work. The dual ZETAS--articulating the un-illuminated double helix as the result of the unrefined DNA--embody the search through the labyrinth of genetic duality to illuminate the DNA into a unified spiral of light. Nick Fiorenza The TNP Hades has a connection to primitive building blocks of nature while Uranus in Aries is new discoveries so that it is not surprising that Watsons progressed MC touching this area led to his Double Helix discovery. At 84 years of age Watson is now having his Uranus return. With Uranus stationing direct [Dec 13, 2012] at about 5ar, James Watson has revealed in an interview to The Guardian on 9th December how the Double Helix's tale of DNA breakthrough became a big hit but had to overcome hostility from the Nobel winner's colleagues. Incidentally one of the meanings that Martha Wescott gives for Uranus-Hades is: People react abruptly "do bad or mean stuff." Friendships will likewise be subjected to this "bad to worse" kind of trend.. This is a time when things can SUDDENLY take a "dog leg to the left. You're also liable to recognize--in several situations--that "change," modernization, and updates can imply a good bit of mess.
