Colin Powell married Alma Johnson on August 24, 1962. On that day, Jupiter made a MAGIcal angle with both Chiron and Neptune, and Neptune made a MAGIcal angle with Chiron. Below is the chart of that day (the MAGIcal angles are highlighted in green).
This very rare alignment of Jupiter, Neptune and Chiron not only creates very powerful Symmetrical Planetary Geometry but also forms three Super Aspects (a term explained in our third book, Magi Astrology: the Key to Success in Love and Money). The above alignment of Jupiter, Chiron and Neptune is so beneficial and powerful that it gave rise to three of the other most famous icons of the 20th century:
1) The first Wal-Mart store opened July 2, 1962 (the chart of this event is shown on our section about Financial Astrology that is a part of this website)
2) The Rolling Stones first gig was performed on 7/12/1962 (this chart is on page 287, Figure 14B, of our third book, Magi Astrology: the Key to Success in Love and Money)
3) The Beatles first gig was performed 8/18/1962 (the first time Ringo Starr joined the other three Beatles) and the chart of this event is below:
Because Neptune and Chiron are slow moving planets, and Jupiter is somewhat slow in motion, when such a fortuitous alignment of these three powerful planets does occur, the alignment actually lasts for several months. But this alignment is truly rare and these three planets did not make such an alignment during any other period of time in this entire century.
Colin Powell is a great man in his own right. But the Magi Society's research discovered that when anyone marries, the astrological chart of the wedding date becomes just as important as the birth charts of the two persons who are married. That is why it is imperative that you choose your wedding date based on the principles of Magi Astrology, and not on the availability of a caterer or church. In some cases, the choice of the wedding date is almost as important as the selection of a marriage partner.
