Let's take a peek at her birth chart on Astrotheme and do a search for red flags...
https://www.astrotheme.com/astrology/Aaliyah
I adjust the settings to Mean North Node/Lilith and no house shifts, so the results may be different in some places than the info at that link. They don't choose the settings I use by default.
So this is the first red flag from the chart...
Quote:Midheaven 8°56' Sagittarius . . . The royal fixed star Antares promises glory and power, but also upheavals, slanders, and violence.
Here's the dancer aspect...
Quote:Uranus 20°19' Scorpio, in House IX . . . One may also be an excellent acrobat.
Another red flag...
Quote:Cupido 5°20' Scorpio, in House VIII . . . A strong Mercury in the natal chart offsets the danger of violence and ruin heralded by this degree.
This one's interesting, she was definitely very exotic. I've never seen this one before in any of the charts I've read, and that's a lot of charts...
Quote:Proserpina 1°47' Scorpio, in House VIII . . . Long travels, international politics, and a strong taste for exoticism bring about success and prosperity.
This one is accurate too, Aaliyah was always known as a sex symbol, here's a quote from her Wiki: [Aaliyah did not have a problem with being considered one. "I know that people think I'm sexy and I am looked at as that, and it is cool with me," she stated. "It's wonderful to have sex appeal. If you embrace it, it can be a very beautiful thing. I am totally cool with that. Definitely. I see myself as sexy. If you are comfortable with it, it can be very classy and it can be very appealing."]
Quote:Poseidon 24°28' Libra, in House VIII . . . Success and wealth are achieved owing to one's good-looking features and sex-appeal.
Portends of an accident...
Quote:Vertex 13°32' Virgo, in House VII . . . This degree indicates a risk of accidents or of losing a limb.
And the exact same portend shows up again immediately...
Quote:Saturn 13°28' Я Virgo, in House VII . . . This degree indicates a risk of accidents or of losing a limb.
FFS...
Quote:Jupiter 5°07' Я Leo, in House VI . . . This degree warns against reversals of fortune, as well as injuries and traps, and urges to avoid situations of violence. If in the natal chart, this degree is in conjunction with the Ascendant and with the Sun or the Moon, it indicates a potential danger for the head and the eyes.
I don't know if I've ever seen so many portends of accidents and injury in a chart before...
Quote:Vulcanus 8°42' Я Cancer, in House V . . . There is a danger of accidents caused by a weapon or a working tool.
This one is pretty creepy. I don't think Aaliyah was a bad chick, I am just posting all the red flags that appeared in her chart, so don't shoot the messenger...
Quote:Kronos 12°42' Я Gemini, in House IV . . . One builds and develops one's wealth on other people's unhappiness and ruin, but sooner or later, the day comes when sword of justice puts an end to one's reprehensible deeds.
God dang dude, red flags fucking everywhere...
Quote:Admetos 6°44' Я Taurus, in House II . . . One must not overindulge in sensual pleasures because this degree indicates a danger of violent death or ruthlessness, whether one is the perpetrator or the victim.
This isn't a huge one but it is what it is, nonetheless...
Quote:Chiron 5°03' Taurus, in House II . . . This degree sometimes indicates a physical flaw at birth or following an accident.
Interesting...
Quote:East Point 5°24' Pisces, in House I . . . In most cases, a serious reversal of fortune wreaks havoc on the family.
This is a big one...
Quote:Vesta 15°51' Aquarius, in House XII . . . One must be very careful in the selection of business partners because there is a danger of being taken advantage of, particularly by people who do not belong to the same social circle. This degree warns against possible swindles and violent death, whether one is the perpetrator or the victim.
Also pretty serious, remember the earlier statement about a well placed Mercury avoiding the violence indicated by one of the former degrees, well here is her Mercury...
Quote:Mercury 11°14' Capricorn, in House XI . . . However, if mental cleverness is misused and serves illegal purposes, one incurs a heavy punishment such as a prison sentence or exile.
Interesting...
Quote:Neptune 19°22' Sagittarius, in House X . . . Sometimes, if in the natal chart the Moon receives hard aspects, this degree indicates that deceits and misfortunes are brought about by females.
Again with the influence of Antares, as we saw earlier...
Quote:Venus 8°59' Sagittarius, in House X . . . Ambitious, magnanimous, and passionate character endowed with unyielding willpower, which brings about success and fame. Under the influence of unforeseeable outer circumstances, life suddenly takes an unexpected turn. The royal fixed star Antares promises glory and power, but also upheavals, slanders, and violence.
Astrology just doesn't lie...
Looks like she had a target on her from the start. Definitely seems like outside sources were to blame for her demise, possibly even a jealous female involved somewhere along the line.
