Grace Kelly
Grace’s life as a princess was “glamorous” (Primary Jupiter), but in playing the role she wreaked havoc upon certain aspects of her creative life. Initially “forbidden” (third most aspected or Tertiary Leader, Saturn) by the prince to act in films, Grace again found herself in a position where she “lacked the freedom and independence” (Saturn) that was necessary for her psychic health and for the appropriate expression of her creative energy. In addition, the line of Primary Uranus (the ruler of freedom) is not located anywhere near Europe, and it seems as if its absence there reflected the difficulty she experienced in enhancing her “liberation.”
Searching for a meaningful role that would properly channel her creativity, she accepted an invitation to “recite” (Primary Mercury) poetry at the Edinburgh Arts Festival. The reading was held on September 1976, in close proximity to Primary Jupiter and within the northern tip of her Primary Jupiter / Primary Mercury Transcendental Midpoint-Field. It was an event that she had worked hard to prepare for, and it was hailed as a success. As a result, she continued to explore this creative form and toured throughout Europe, Ireland, and the United States.
Besides ruling the “spoken word,” Mercury symbolizes the “print medium” and is associated with “gossipmongers,” “scandal sheets,” and the “busybody chattering of the populace.” The location of Primary Mercury near Monaco reflected her continual involvement with the paparazzi and the rumor mills that run rampant within the tiny principality. According to Robert Dornhelm, “Everywhere she went reporters and photographers dogged her.”
On September 13, 1982, at approximately 9:30 A.M., Grace drove from Roc Agel along a hazardous road on the Moyenne Corniche, toward Monaco. While passing through Mentone, the car failed to negotiate a curve and flew off the hillside. Grace’s daughter Stephanie survived the crash, but Grace drifted into a coma. At 6 A.M. on September 14, she was pronounced brain-dead. The Prince terminated her life-support systems at noon, and she died that evening, at 10:35 P.M.
