Jeffrey Dahmer
Serial killer, necrophiliac, cannibal and psychopath
From 1978 to 1991, Jeffrey Dahmer killed 19 men. He had sex with the corpses, kept body parts as souvenirs, ate other parts of the bodies, and kept a detailed photo-diary of his victims.
He was sentenced to fifteen consecutive life terms or a total of 957 years in prison. He was later killed in prison by another inmate.
Let’s see how well the horoscope fitted…
| Horoscope | Comments |
| You were born with the Sun in Gemini and the Moon in Aries. Your emotional nature and intellectual powers complement each other, and your personality is well synthesized. Your mind is versatile and fond of change, but at the same time you have very definite ideas. | Fluffy words. Means nothing and everything. |
| Your ambitions are directed toward intellectual pursuits. | Whatever Dahmer was, he wasn’t an intellectual. |
| You like to travel, consciously seeking out learning experiences. | Fluffy. |
| Gemini also gives a very humanistic outlook and sympathy for mankind in general. | Dahmer had so much sympathy for mankind that he ate them. Whattaguy! |
| You abhor violence and cannot come to terms with it. | Dahmer not only killed his victims, he mutilated them as well as copulated with their body parts. How violent can you get? |
| Many troubles arise from your equivocal nature. | True. Dahmer got in trouble for being so equivocal about killing. |
| Outwardly you appear to be an enthusiastic, impulsive individual who insists on having things his own way. | Outwardly, Dahmer appeared to be shy and awkward. But he sure insisted on having things his own way! |
| You do not fear change or paradox and never hesitate to contradict earlier claims or actions if you feel like it. | Fluffy. |
| You are outwardly more aggressive and enthusiastic than your inner self would indicate. | He sure was aggressive, both outwardly as inwardly. |
| You might try to reconcile the intellectual nature of your individuality with the impulsive and militant strands of your personality. | Well, he did try to become a good taxidermist! |
| At the time of your birth the zodiacal sign of Libra was ascending in the horizon. Its ruler Venus is located at the seventh This denotes a life in which the native adopts an attitude which is courteous, kind, and affectionate. | “Courteous, kind, and affectionate” are not three words you would use when describing Dahmer. |
| People with Libra Ascendant are basically motivated by feeling and emotion rather than intellectuality. | True. He did let his emotions and desires rule his life. |
| Your life will demonstrate your keenness of observation, and a tendency to effect comparisons largely of an aesthetic nature. | True. Dahmer made a great effort in preserving skulls and penises and making them as aesthetic as possible. |
| You will not display too much energy in your actions and, therefore, there is a tendency toward following routine and the lines of the least resistance. | Dahmer displayed an enormous amount of energy in finding and killing his victims. However, his Modus Operandi was established very early. |
| You are a sympathetic person who seeks the approval of others and is also very adaptable. | Nobody ever described Dahmer as sympathetic and adaptable. |
| Your intuition is remarkable and you derive sensual gratification from engaging in social intercourse, by loving all social aspects of life. | Dahmer was a loner without friends. He picked up men and young boys from gay bars, offering them money to pose nude, then killed them. |
| If you do not control this tendency to be so involved in human relationships, you may become too attached and over dependent. | Dahmer never had a relationship that lasted more than a few hours. He sure controlled that tendency! |
| Some restlessness, changeability and lack of persistence is noted in your life. Your main feature is that of constantly favoring the fusing of two things or people together. | If “fusing of two things or people” means wanting to eat your victims so they can live on inside you, then this is true. |
| Unfortunately, this involvement with harmonizing and adjusting people to one another, tends to make the native a little unrealistic and lacking in action. You will be, however, easy going and congenial, socially oriented and preoccupied with adornments, clothing, social conventions, standards, and aesthetics. | “Easy going” and “congenial” he was not. Preoccupied with “adornments” he was – the remains of his victims. |
| In love, if you cause the relationship to be a serious one, you will find that the affair is the consequence of your own interest in flattering yourself rather than to satisfy any profound emotion. | Again, Dahmer never had a relationship that lasted more than a few hours. A complete miss. |
| Professionally, you will be inclined to activities which require a high degree of culture and even artistic knowledge. | Well, he did try to become a good taxidermist! Really! |
| First of all this position denotes that you are very much an extrovert; your life is geared toward the successful realization of human relationships; your destiny also suggests here that by properly absorbing from others those qualities you lack you will be complying with your highest spiritual duties. | A complete miss. Dahmer was an introvert and never cared for successful realization of human relationships at all. |
| Marriage should be a happy one with an attractive and very pleasing marital partner. With the help and assistance of your marital partner, it is very possible that you will achieve total financial and social success. | Don’t make me laugh… |
| Saturn, the planet of duty and responsibility, appeared in the third house at the time of your birth. This planet brings an aura of coldness and contriving to all mental functions; the general attitude is reserved, serious, and lacking in dynamism, warmth and flexibility. You are a thinker and a slow, but determined planner. | First, Dahmer should be extrovert, enthusiastic and impulsive, now he is reserved, cold and contriving? A major contradiction. |
| The struggle to realize your life plans is going to be difficult, and you will receive little assistance from persons close to you. | True. Dahmer worked alone and it can’t have been an easy choice of occupation. |
| Another problem that you have is that of worrying needlessly or giving excessive attention to plans which will yield very little in relation to the effort invested. | Fluffy. |
| Saturn here represents duties that you must comply with and which are of an intellectual nature. It also points to tests of character occurring at critical points of human relationship, which can only be successfully “passed” by developing an altruistic and compassionate nature that will make pardon and forgiveness feasible. | Altruistic and compassionate he was not. |
| The Moon, the Earth satellite, was found in your sixth house at the time of birth. Among other things, this indicates that throughout life your work duties will be varied, multiple, and require contact with many people. | True. Dahmer could hardly hold on to a job. |
| Healthwise, this may denote a propensity to suffer through excessive changes and motivations. | “May denote a propensity” leaves room for any interpretation. Fluffy. |
| Psychologically, this position inclines you to act through subordinate roles rather than those of leadership. | Dahmer needed to be in control, not be subordinate. |
| A final psychological trait is a secret desire to become known professionally. | Well, yeah….he did. |
| Venus, the planet of love, was found in your seventh house at the time of birth. Regarding marriage this is one of the best influences existing. You have been promised a happy marriage with a very attractive, lovely, and pleasing person. You have the potential to derive both emotional and financial gain through marriage. | That promise was apparently broken by the heavenly powers. |
| Your individuality is thrust toward the environment and this will lead to happiness as well as a psychological compensation for any disabilities. In your inter-action with other human beings, there will be harmonious relationships. | No harmonious relationships ever. Recycling bodies was, however, a key part of his life. |
| You will achieve balance through sentimental affection, aesthetics, art, and marriage. | No sentimentality, affection or marriage. As for keeping rotting bodies in your home…I suppose Dahmer considered that both aesthetic and an art form. |
| The Sun, the giver of light and center of our planetary system, was found in your eighth house at the time of birth. This inclines your individuality to be oriented, in one way or another, to the dark sides of life. | Very, very true. |
| Your sexual feelings are long-lasting, intense, and vital. | His sexual feelings were short, intense and vital – but only to Dahmer himself. They were deadly to all others. |
| Your inner self seems attracted to unusual matters related to the termination of life-death and its mysteries. | Very, very true. |
| Traditional astrology indicates that near your middle age a crisis will rear its head in your life. If this period is successfully spanned you can expect a prolonged life with a gradual heightening vitality. | The crisis did rear its ugly head, when Dahmer was arrested and sentenced to life in prison. His life was shortened, so this period apparently weren’t very successfully spanned. |
| Financially, there are definite chances for money inherited from either your marital partner or from another relative. | It is very likely that you will inherit at least part of your parents’ belongings. Generic statement. |
Postlude
Nowhere in Dahmer’s chart can we find any indications of the horrors he did. Astrology is fluff, feel-good-about-yourself, you-are-OK, you-have-possibilities talk. In other words, bunk.
It would be fair to claim that since this horoscope was generated by a computer it is not very precise. But then we would also need explanations – and proof – why other methods are better.
This program is made by astrologers. Any complaints should be taken to their doorstep, not mine.
However, the best known Danish astrologer, Ole Giber, was given Dahmer’s birth data (without knowing who he was) and came up with descriptions like “Your need for tenderness and love is more important to you than sexual contact, no matter how strong it is” and “You are socially dependable”.
It seems that human astrologers do no better than computers.
