Passing of Vedic Astrologer David

LaGrone

have sad news to announce; veteranVedic astrologer David LaGrone has

passed. He was an active part of the

Fort Worth astrological community. Many

years ago I attended my first Vedic

astrology class taught by David LaGrone.

He was brilliant and completely dedicated

to Vedic astrology. Over the years we

remained friends. He called me about sixmonths ago and we exchanged pleasantries.

Then he asked if he could put me in his

will for his very extensive collection of

Vedic astrology books and tapes. I told him

I would be honored, and then asked if there

was anything wrong. He said no not at all,

he was just putting together a will. Then a

week ago his daughter-in-law, Deb, calledme with this message. I am David's

daughter-in-law and I have been asked by

his children to contact you regarding the

items that Davidhas bequeathed to you.

I called immediately with a heavy, sad

heart but a sense of honor. We arranged to

meet at his home in Glen Rose, Texas,which is about an hour and half drive from

Dallas. My husband and I took the day off

to make the adventure. It was a delightful drive into the heart of Texas. It was just like going

into a time tunnel of the past. The countryside changed dramatically in such a short distance.

He lived in the country in a lovely oasis immersed in an intellectual haven full of books of

Eastern spiritual philosophies. Ironically, he was in one of the most interesting and

conservative Texas towns. Being a Texan myself, I am totally aware of the simplistic, down

to earth Texas hospitality. But I had not been exposed to this in such a long time. I lived in

Austin in the 1970s while attending college at the University of Texas and remember so

much of this. Glen Rose is like a time warp of this old Texas history, and history is certainly

what this quaint little Texas town is known for, because it is known for its many prehistoric

dinosaur remains and has a well-known museum. It also has a beautiful wild life preserve

that I visited many years ago. As you drive through giraffes are nudging your car with

curiosity.

But what made the trip the most enjoyable was the amazing Texas hospitality for

everywhere you went everyone greeted you with a wholehearted smile and a hello. We had

lunch in a busy restaurant called the Green Pickle Caf. Everyone in there began talking to

us from all around. From the table next to us came the comment, Why I remember my first

hamburger costing 17 cents. Then another table asked where we were from, and then a

conversation about Dallas started up. We heard about the 50th wedding anniversary that was

to be celebrated the next weekend and the same couple told us about the wonderful water

that they got from their wells. Now I am wondering, maybe there is magic in that water!Everywhere you went it seemed like Mayberry from the Andy Griffith show. Many new

best friends were made in an instant. But I dare not tell them why I was there and what I

did. It was much nicer just enjoying the happiness and simplicity of this blast from the past.

The books I received from Davidexemplified his quest for enlightenment and spirituality. I

am thinking he was attracted to this town for the reasons I felt while there. It was like a get

away from all the issues and problems the world is facing right now. It was comforting to see

people living together in complete harmony with simplicity, caring for their fellow humanbeings.

Davidmust have somehow known this mini adventure would be meaningful and special to

me. I came to understand and realize his truths that he practiced. Deb told me that he felt it

was very important to give to others; this is why he wanted his books to go to others that

would enjoy and appreciate them. He had other book topics willed to others. She said he was

very giving and that was what Davidwas all about. Also in his will he arranged for some

underprivileged children to receive an education paid for by him until age 18.


3/9

Looking back as my husband and I were driving, we both commented on how magical and

mystical the day was meeting Deb, talking about Davidand receiving his beautiful library.

He must have known how I cherish books. It was like a mystical journey back in time and it

all seemed like a dream. Even the conversations with so many seemed dream-like.

I have my very special friend David LaGoneto thank for this mystical day of intrigue for it

helped me realize what is important in this life, the simple happiness of sharing and giving.

The energy I felt in this sweet little town is something I have not experienced in so many

years from a simpler time. It was like an escape from this world. My husband Daniel and I

commented that we couldnt have had a better time anywhere in world.

Thank you for everything David, you will be dearly missed, Joni Patry.

Predictions April 2014

Eclipses Lunar and Solar

Russia, Ukraine, Turkey, Syria and the USA

Malaysian Airline Flight 370

Grand Mutable Cross

Ebola Health Crises

The world is in a very strange cycle and the times ahead will develop more mysterious

events. The eclipse season becomes the most intense times of the year. The eclipse season is

two weeks before or after an eclipse, and the time to lay low is the times between a lunar and

solar eclipse. This period is April 15-29. It is said by Vedic astrologers that when the lunar eclipse

occurs before the solar eclipse the energy is far worse and dangerous. It is better to have the lunar

eclipse following the solar eclipse, but this month the lunar eclipse is before the solar eclipse

so there is more trouble to come.

Mars retrograde is beginning to create problems notorious to Mars only contention, anger,

attacks and war.

Malaysian Airline Flight 370

he media is obsessed with the Malaysian Airlines mystery, which will always

remain a mystery. The chart of this fated flight reveals that the reason for thedisappearance will never be known due to Neptune being conjunct the Nadir (IC)2of the

event chart. In an interesting conversation with my friendJuliana Swanson, (we discuss world

affairs relative to astrology daily), she noted that the Sun in the 4 thhouse represents the pilot

since he was in charge. She said, You know, the nakshatra the sun is in, Purva Bhadrapada, is a

very evil nakshatra. I added that it is known to have two faces, as in being two-faced. We think

maybe the public doesnt know all there is to know about this captain of Flight 370. Also the

fact that Neptune exactly conjunct the IC (the deepest darkest degree of the chart) pertains to

the end of life and Neptune as ruler of the oceans means it is in the deepest part of the ocean.

5/9

This was a very difficult chart for the time of take off March 8, 2014 at 00:41 am in Kuala

Lumpur, Saturn/Rahu and Mars are in the 12th house of loss and Mars is the ruler of the

ascendant in the 12th house conjunct Rahu. Furthermore, Ketu the planet of accidents and

indicator of terrorists is in the 6

th

house opposing Mars. Jupiter the planet of graceis lost inthe most difficult 8thhouse. The 8th house indicates death and disgrace. Lastly the moon is

exactly opposed the ascendant indicating fluctuations and problems from an outside source

since the 7thhouse is opponents or enemies.

Now we have the disappearance of many people from a mudslide in Seattle, Washington.

What is the cause of so many unknowns, mysteries and tragedies occurring worldwide? This

is due to the intensity of the planetary energies of Mars retrograde conjunct Rahu, andSaturn retrograde at the end of a sign, 29 degrees of Libra. The problems will deepen and

become much more intense.

The attention of the media is problematic shifting the attention covertly away from the

pressing issues about to take precedence. There is the threat of war and crisis brewing in

many places. Russia, Ukraine, Turkey, Syria, China, France, Germany, Iran, Iraq and the

U.S., to name a few must be watched. Go to my article to spot any countries that have planets

around 14-22 degrees falling in the mutable signs Gemini, Virgo, Sagittarius and Pisces. This marksthe countries with big problems ahead.Turkey is probably the most problematic with natal Mars

at 14 degrees Virgo and the ascendant at 14 degrees Gemini. This indicates a huge crisis about


6/9

to take place in April and May as Mars stations direct at 14 degrees of Virgo and the early

degrees of Aries/Libra where the lunar eclipse falls. 14 degrees Aries/Libra is where the solar

eclipse occurs. Here again Turkey has relevant points with Mercury and Saturn at 1 degree

Libra, this is where the lunar eclipse will oppose.

I do apologize for leaving India out, but they are not going to be involved with the violence,

yet they will have a serious readjustment period to come and this will affect the country

financially. The new elections will intensify this financial problem, but 2015 will prove

better.

Solar and Lunar Eclipses

he most important issue for the month is that the solar and lunar eclipse in April issure to surface that which has been hidden.

The eclipses are extraordinary this month. The lunar eclipse April 15, 2014 involves the Sun

and Moon at 1 degree Aries and Libra. This is a total lunar eclipse with the Sun with Ketu

and the Moon with Rahu. Sun with Ketu in Aries indicates the loss of a powerful world leader.But

what is striking about this chart is the Mercury and Uranus conjunction in Pisces at 19

degrees Pisces. This is the degree where the grand mutable cross occurs April 22-23, whereMars (Virgo) will oppose Uranus (Pisces) and square Jupiter (Gemini) and Pluto

(Sagittarius) all 19 degrees. Uranus as the planet of air travel and airplanes conjunct

T


7/9

Mercury, planet of travel (debilitated) does indicate problems with air travel. And events do

happen in a series of threes. There will be unexpected explosions with world strife, crises and

earthquakes erupting around the world.

The solar eclipse is powerful and alludes to great loss with the Sun/Moon and Mercury all inthe nakshatra Bharani. This is a very sharp nakshatra ruled by Yama, the God of death. Mars

and Mercury exchange signs (parivartana). This will be a very contentious and difficult

month for President Obama based on his navamshas chart and the U.S. chart.

This month, hidden agendas and secrets are revealed. At the time of a solar eclipse many secrets

come out into the open. This is an important solar eclipse because it involves Saturn. This means

there are many political leaders that will face the truth and have to be accountable . Saturn pertains

to reality and there is a lot that will be uncovered.

Corruption in the area of repressed information to acquire financial gains is the keynote of

this month. Many political leaders suppressionof information will lead to the downfall of many

nations.

There is a major health concern that is dominating world affairs. As Mars retrogrades in the

sign Virgo, health will be a major priority. There will be a mysterious new disease and or

illness spreading globally. The seeds are being planted now. This may be indicated by thevery serious threat of the Ebola virus spreading through Africa.


8/9

Mars the planet of war is in a dangerous position as it retrogrades opposed to Uranus causing

sudden outburst of anger and violence around the world.

The good thing coming out of the many tragedies occurring now is the coming together of

many people to help each other. With the Malaysian Flight 370, many countries are banding

together to help solve the mystery. Tragedies have a way of breaking down the borders and

boundaries through a humanitarian cause to help no matter what race, culture or beliefs.

Vedic Lesson

Eclipses Create Sensitive Degrees

For astrologers eclipses are very important for prediction. April 29, 2014 is the day of a verysignificant solar eclipse. The alignment of the Sun and Moon symbolize the lights in our

world coming together, as they obliterate each others light this is an indication of secrets

coming out of the darkness.

The planets involved at the time of an eclipse will flavor the energy that is revealed. As

Saturn is opposed the Sun/Moon conjunction this will bring to light all that has been hidden

globally and personally.

The most significant property of an eclipse in terms of prediction is that the degree the Sun and Moon

join at the time of an eclipse becomes a sensitive degree. This degree should be watched as through

it is a land mine that will create an explosion or event when other transiting planets aspect

this degree.

The degree of this solar eclipse is 14 degrees of Aries. When transiting planets aspect this degree

afterwards events occur. Significantly this degree will be aspected by transiting Mars in May,

as Mars will station from retrograde to direct on the fateful degree of 14 Virgo.

In Vedic astrology Mars has two specific full aspects aside from the conjunction and

opposition. The full aspects mean their power is 100%. These full aspects are 90 degrees and

210 degrees or 4 and 8 signs counting forward from Mars position. The 8thaspect (210) is the

most violent and dangerous and usually involves death.

So with Mars stationing (Mars is changing from retrograde to direct) May 18-22 at 14 degrees of

Virgo it will fully aspect (8th

aspect) the degree of the solar eclipse that occurred April 29 at 14 degreesof Aries. This will create an event that is very dangerous worldwide.


9/9

April and May will be the most intense times of 2014.

My major prediction for 2014 concerns world health issues, which could be a feature of the

many mysteries occurring. Take care of your health and build up your immune system. Mars

in Virgo will surface a health epidemic.

April 01-02: Sun conjunct Uranus square Jupiter: 17-18 degrees Pisces/Gemini

April 03: Sun square Pluto: 19 degrees Pisces/Sagittarius

April 08: Sun opposed Mars: 24 degrees Pisces/Virgo

April 11: Venus conjunct Neptune: 12 degrees Aquarius

April 14: Pluto Retrograde 19 degrees Sagittarius

April 15: Lunar Eclipse: Sun conjunct Ketu in Aries and Moon conjunct Rahu in Libra (1

degree Libra), nakshatra: Chitra

April 15: Mercury conjunct Uranus, Square Jupiter, square Pluto opposed MarsApril 22-23: Mars 19 degrees Virgo: Perfect Grand Cross = Mars square Jupiter/opposed

Uranus/square Pluto

April 24: Jupiter leaves Ardra

April 29: Solar Eclipse: 14 degrees Aries, nakshatra: Bharani

Sun/Moon conjunct Ketu: 4 degrees Aries

Mars aspects Ketu/Sun/Moon/ Mercury: 8thaspect

*Uranus square Jupiter, opposed Mars, square Pluto. In mutable signs according to Jaiminiastrology is a full aspect: Aspects from mutable signs are full aspects meaning they are in

100% full force, so all four planets are in exact aspect April 22-23 at 19 degrees mutable signs.

Expect the unexpected with chaos, war and earthquakes.
