R.I.P. JOHNNY KEMP

Trying to make sense of the death of a friend when there's so many unfound rumors going around.  First dealing with the grief and the sympathy for his wife and two sons who loved him dearly, then trying to find out what really happened. My heart is heavy, I pray that he didn't suffer. I know that he's on the other side now and I pray that he's adjusting to his new surroundings. After meditating, praying and talking to a close friend of the family, this is what I know for sure.  It seems Johnny was over the top with joy because he was supposed to perform on the Tom Joyner cruise. He was looking forward to doing the gig and connecting with other friends on the cruise, i.e. Keith Sweat, and others. When he arrived at the ship he wasn't allowed on because he was missing required paperwork. They put him up in a hotel in Jamaica and he called his wife to have her send the paperwork.  When she tried to reach him later that night to make sure the paperwork had arrived, she was told he had an accident and was dead. She is now in Jamaica trying to figure out what happened and to collect his belongings.  I did what most astrologers do...pulled up his Solar Chart to try to get answers from a cosmic perspective.  Here's what I saw:

JOHNNY KEMP

BORN: AUGUST 2, 1959

DIED: APRIL 16, 2015

The first thing that jumped out at me was the fact that Johnny was a Leo. Jupiter, planet of joy, money and expansion is in Leo, right on his Mercury/Uranus in Leo. He was having a Jupiter transit which in most cases is a good thing. However the flip side of Jupiter transits is it inspires the individual to go too far, to not know when to quit or to overstep boundaries.  Johnny was born with Mercury, planet of the mind and communications close to Uranus, planet of unpredictability and potential genius in Leo. I would say he was a genius. An individual who had the potential to think outside the box. He was quick witted and able to respond faster than most people I know.  This aspect probably got him into trouble with adults or teachers as he was growing up.  Life is in cycles and although I haven't confirmed this with his family, he probably had a similar situation in his life 12 years ago, that forewarned of what was to come. That's because Jupiter has a 12 year cycle and he had this transit 12 years ago.  

Then there is the Mars, planet of action, in Taurus, squaring Johnny's Sun/Mercury/Uranus in Leo (ouch).  Mars in Taurus makes me think about fight, a physical beating, because the Taurus energy is about physical sensation or even boxing with two people trying to win the fight. Taurus is also fixed and stubborn. The bull (Taurus ruler) digs in deeper when you're trying to move him.  The Mars transit could have made Johnny angry. He was refused entrance to the ship because of paperwork? Who were they to turn him away? Didn't they know who he was? Anger is contagious, it also magnetically attracts other people's anger. We were warned by spiritual teachers to never go outside with the anger vibration on us, because it could attract accidents or people who were carrying the same vibration.  So what happened? One day we may know the full truth of the situation.  I believe that Johnny left the hotel, frustrated and angry and somewhere along the way he attracted an angry person or persons who triggered more anger. Words were exchanged and with the help of Jupiter, he didn't realize the potential danger, and said something that started a fight.  Johnny was a physically small person, but a courageous soul who never backed down from a confrontation. Obviously he lost the fight and was dumped into the ocean. Well, that's my theory.  One of the other theories was that he slipped, fell and hit his head in the bathroom on the ship. But our information was this couldn't be true because he was never on the ship.  I don't believe that he just went for a swim and hit his head on the rocks. This story came from hotel personnel. Whatever happened...we do know he's dead, he was loved and will be missed on the physical level.  I will always remember his smile, his kindness towards others, his comedic bent, his beautiful voice and musicality.   I'm sending prayers of love and Light to his family and friends that they will heal from the hurt of his passing.
