What Made Runaway Bride Jennifer Wilbanks a Runaway Bride? - 8/10/05Jennifer Wilbanks' Birth Chart Shows She's Queen of DenialRemember Jennifer Wilbanks who was in the news back in May? She faked her own kidnapping and led authorities on a wild goosechase looking for her alleged captors, all because she decided not to go through with a stressful, over-the-top, wedding ceremony. She said she "needed time alone." The wedding would have included some 600 guests, 14 bridesmaids, and 14 groomsmen. I can't imagine sharing such an intimate and important day with 600 people. No wonder she needed time alone! It's weird how weddings are more about the family members and paying off all these ancient, feudal obligations rather than celebrating a sacred and joyful day with your soulmate. "But we have to invite my fourth cousin Henry, even though he reeks of booze because of advanced alcoholism and has a tendency to feel up the flower girls. He may be a pedophile, but he's part of the family!" Geesh. Since when did people get this weird sense of "entitlement" about getting invited to distant family member's weddings? I say if you haven't spoken to someone in a few years and neither you nor the other person have reached across that gulf to communicate, cross that person off of your list. They are no longer in the stream of your life, and that's fine. Send them a polite announcement after the fact. Then all they can do is say "Congratulations." Better yet, send them a postcard from Acapulco as you're finishing up your honeymoon. Or casually mention that you got married months ago in your yearly Christmas card. Don't give people the option of getting all upset or playing games around your special day. "What do you mean you got married? Little Mandy was supposed to be your bridesmaid! I'd been planning it for years. Okay, so she never washes/has a tendency to scream and behave like a brat/hates you with a passion, she's still your third step-niece twice removed! HOW COULD YOU DO THIS TO THE FAMILY!" Back to Jennifer Wilbanks and her runaway bride syndrome. I'm not condoning what she did, because nobody should waste taxpayers' money with an elaborate lie about something as serious as an abduction or kidnapping. But as a woman who has always had an aversion to hokey, hideously expensive wedding events, I can relate. A reader sent me this question about Jennifer Wilbanks' birthdate. This inspired me to do a little astrological sniffing around in my ephemeris. Ahem. That sounds rude and rather private. Let me clarify. An ephemeris is a reference book that lists all the positions of the planets. I have one that covers the years 1900 - 2000 and another that goes from 2000 - 2100. I uncovered some interesting information and developed some theories about what may have made Jennifer become a runaway bride. Jennifer Wilbanks' Birth Chart Reveals Clues to Her BehaviorDear Lipstick Mystic,
You'd referred to Jennifer Wilbanks in one of your columns. I know she was reported as being 32 at the time of her escapade. Do you know her birthdate? -- Thanks, N.H.
Hi N.H. A Google search on Wilbanks brought up the following birthdate info on her:
She is reported as having been born on August 25, 1973.
So that means she has the following planetary placements in her birth chart: Sun in Virgo Moon in Cancer Mercury in Leo Venus in Libra Mars in Taurus Jupiter retrograde in Aquarius. Ironically, the next Venus transit through Libra, which starts August 16th, would have begun a "smooth sailing" honeymoon period for her in her love life. . .if she'd played her cards right and just gone through with the horrendously expensive and stomach-turning event she had planned. Who knows what will happen to her next? My prediction is that she'll try to pretend everything is all right now that there is still some media interest in her, with those potential book deals and movie deals in the works, but she will be fooling herself. There's a lot of narcissistic stuff going on in her chart. Jupiter retrograde in Aquarius shows that she's Queen of Denial -- and I don't mean the river in Egypt. There is a thread of self-deception going on throughout her chart, plus a tendency to deceive others. She should come with a "warning" sign plastered to her forehead, based on these astrological influences! Also, with Mars transiting her natal Mars in Taurus now, there's a definite "bull-headedness" cycle going on. The attitude is, "I can do no wrong; I have everyone wrapped around my little finger." She should be due for a reality check as Jupiter leaves friendly air sign Libra and heads for the "reap what you sow" karmic equalizer sign of Scorpio on October 25th.
Maybe Jennifer's fiancé will wake up and smell the bitter coffee around that time. I don't have access to his chart, so I can't say for sure. This is just my intuitive sense, based on the progressions in Wilbanks' chart happening this fall. I guess we'll have to stay tuned and see what misadventures this girl gets into next. I only hope that whatever she gets up to, she doesn't harm herself or others any further than she already has. Can you imagine being her fiancé? Yikes! -- Lipstick Mystic |
