Last week, Lisa Marie Presley, the daughter of Priscilla Presley and the King of Rock and Roll, Elvis Presley, passed away. She was 54 years old. Lisa Marie was born on February 1, 1968 at 5:01pm in Memphis Tennessee. While her cause of death has been deferred as of this writing it was initially reported as cardiac arrest. Lisa Marie had talked about her family having heart issues. Lisa Marie was a singer and songwriter. She was a mother of 4.
I am going to switch things up on you and start by looking at what was happening in her chart on January 12, 2023 when she suffered cardiac arrest and later passed away.
On this day transiting Saturn, an indicator of death, was weak at 29 degrees of Capricorn. Saturn was still in her seventh house which is a maraka or killer house. Saturn is strong in Capricorn as it rules this sign. Saturn was still conjunct her natal Sun in Capricorn which rules the other maraka house which is the second house. Transiting Ketu was in a 6/8 relationship with Gulika. Gulika is a shadow planet connected to Saturn and is considered very malefic in nature. When placed with Saturn in a natal chart is can cause critical diseases. 6/8 relationships are considered extremely hard in vedic astrology. Add to this they are also involved in this 6/8 relationship of Ketu and Gulika is her natal Saturn ruler of her seventh house (maraka) and eighth house (death). Transiting Ketu is in the fourth house which is an indicator of the heart and Ketu can be loss. Transiting Mars was stationary on this day and sending an eighth house aspect to Lisa Marie’s natal Venus which rules her fourth house of the home and heart. This is made stronger by the fact that she was in her Venus-Mars dasha period. Natal Mars is in her eighth house of transformation and death. Transiting Mercury, which rules her twelfth house of liberation, was retrograde and moving closer to her natal Venus. This could indicate the liberation from this life through a heart related matter. Transiting Neptune was exactly conjunct her natal Moon at 28 degrees Aquarius. This could show death through “poison” or some hidden, unidentified means. Moon rules her first house indicating who she is. Transiting Moon was likely a trigger as well as it was exactly conjunct her natal Uranus which is sudden and unexpected.
