I wasn’t very impressed with Princess Kate’s video. It looked very amateurish. But I tried to put myself in her shoes and imagine what if I had just been told my cancer was in remission. That’s what the video was about I thought. It was a little over the top with a fairytale like portrayal of her family — all lollipops and roses. But isn’t that how she would be feeling? The relief of conquering an illness? Her world at that moment was sublime. We demand that people be honest and then we’re disappointed when we don’t get a slick edited Hollywood version of the truth.
But there are some genuine criticisms, too. Kate hasn’t been very upfront about what cancer she had. And it isn’t ghoulish to want to know why when someone is sick. I think it has to do with our own mortality — putting ourselves in the other person’s place. It reminds me of the harsh criticism when someone asked the skin color of Harry and Meghan’s children. Maybe we shouldn’t want to know. But we’re human. We’re curious. It’s not evil to ask that question. And Kate could have put our minds at ease, at least, with the diagnosis.
But she chose not to tell the public. And now she wants us to share in her joy that it’s over without ever knowing what it was in the first place. I think she’s getting criticized for this video because she is asking for it to be both ways. She refuses to tell us what it was, but wants us to be happy it is over. What is over, Kate? What the hell did you have? How sick were you? How close to death? We want to know!
Astrologically, Kate had a serious challenge. Usually someone at this age would not be dealing with a physical illness. But never rule that out. The aspects she is dealing with, first Venus squaring Saturn are concerning because Saturn is your health and a square is the most negative of all the aspects. This is no doubt that is what allowed her illness to begin. But it was over when she announced her cancer. Next she had Sun square Uranus starting in July. Another square and Uranus denotes things that are unexpected. The Sun is Kate herself. Again, very concerning. And to come in 2025, Venus squaring Pluto. Too many squares one right after the other. And because it is Venus twice, I would surmise that Kate hasn’t been entirely or even at all happy with her position in her marriage. That’s Venus/relationships.
My professional opinion is that she pushed down a lot of her unhappiness for a long time, and it showed up as an illness. Without resolving that issue, it’s entirely possible she can’t resolve the physical issues either. I do believe one way she is protesting is not going back to her royal duties anytime soon. People are now saying not until her children are grown?
There was an article in NewsNation’s The Scoop by Paula Froelich that said,
“…not in remission and not cancer-free, my insider said. ‘She’s not in good shape at all… it’s going to be a tough road ahead for both her and Charles… both of them are not well.’”
No one knows how accurate that is, but I’m concerned there is some truth to it. Cancer is tricky. And one of the things it does is go into remission before it explodes back on the scene. I’m not a big fan of conventional medicine and this appears to be a side effect of chemo — just from my observation.
So I recommend we not stop praying for this brave woman. Or anyone dealing with cancer. You never know when it’s over. I’m sure that she will get the medical attention she needs. And there is no reason she can’t make it through another challenge if there is one. Let’s be kind about the video. She reached out. She shared her happiness with us. And you know that maxim that says we’re all created equal. Well, astrologically we are all equal. Being royal doesn’t give you any privileges at all.
