Tracy Morgan – Scorpio – From The Depths


Tracy Morgan the well known comedian form SNL and 30 rock was in a horrific car crash on June 1, 2014 resulting in serious injury to him and the death of his long time friend and collaborator James McNair.

Tracy is a Scorpio with Moon either in late Cancer or early Leo depending on his time of birth.  He also had Mars in Libra conjunct volatile, unpredictable Uranus.  Mercury, how he talks and processes information, is in Scorpio.  This Mercury has him questioning everything, digging deep to get at the truth.  His Venus, in freewheeling, fun loving Sagittarius is in a dynamic aspect with his powerful Jupiter/Pluto conjunction in Virgo.

His life reflects these planetary positions. He grew up in the rough and tumble Bedford-Stuyvesant neighborhood. His father, a troubled Vietnam Vet, became addicted to heroin as a result of injuries.  When he was 17 years old Tracy found out his father had aids and ultimately quit school in order to take care of him.  Married to his childhood sweetheart at that time and in need of money he turned to selling drugs to get that money.  He credits his comedy career to a comment made by a friend that he could make it in comedy.  When that friend was later murdered he resolved as a tribute to him to take his shot at comedy. He is known for his erratic behavior and some controversial utterances. 

The Jupiter/Pluto conjunction signifies the underworld, crime and the dark side of society that surrounded him in his early life.  Drugs and death schooled him and ultimately spurred him to take action to improve his lot in life.  By his own words there is no “filter between what he thinks and what he says”. Mercury in Scorpio, like all water sign Mercury’s allows the emotion and feelings to come out.  The Mars/Uranus conjunction provides no governor on his speech and actions.  It’s a safe bet to say that folks around him are continually caught off guard by what he says and the actions he takes.

At the time of the accident, about 1AM, Mercury the planet of cars, roads and traffic was making a station preparing to go retrograde at 7:57 AM. That Mercury in the sky was in an aspect of ease to Tracy’s natal Mercury.  The Moon, at 1degree of Libra was sitting on his natal Mars with a mere 3 minutes away from conjunction.  This triggered his natal combo of Mars/Uranus/Jupiter and Pluto.  This in itself is not unusual as the Moon hits that degree on a monthly basis.  But this month, the planet Saturn, in Scorpio was sitting on his Scorpio Sun which was in turned triggered by his Jupiter/Pluto conjunction.  Jupiter itself in the sky in Cancer was 2 degrees past a benevolent trine to his natal Sun.

This planetary picture is a picture of a life and/or death situation.  Saturn is known as the big bad boy of the Zodiac, bringing restriction, contraction and heavy burdens that must be born.  Saturn rules the bones. Jupiter can bring the transition to a higher plane.  But here it is past the trine to his Sun.  Saturn is the real culprit and unlike Jupiter he is not going to let you go to luxuriate in greener pastures.

Transiting Saturn hitting natal Sun brings hard work, the wish to be someplace else, restricts our movements, whether physically or because of cash considerations or responsibilities.  Saturn says do the job and have fun later when I go away.

After having surgery on his broken leg it has been reported that Tracy Morgan has become “more responsive”.  Although still critical that report is a good sign.  The Saturn transit to his Sun points to a slow recovery, physical therapy etc. while bones knit and the body heals.  Saturn has a way of letting you know what is really important to you in this life.  He is a great one for bringing life’s lessons home.  Although Tracy may be in a deep dark place now, he is a Scorpio and more than any other sign, Scorpio is capable of coming back from those depths. Scorpio is the original comeback kid.

We can help by sending this gifted comedian our prayers and a bright healing light.
