Alison Des Forges' fixed stars show her life of activism
Alison Liebhafsky Des Forges (20 August 1942 – 12 February 2009), an American historian and human rights activist, specialized in the African Great Lakes region and studied the Rwandan Genocide. She was killed on flight 3407 near Buffalo, NY.
The presence of Fomalhaut, Algol and Facies prominent in parans [angular when a planet was angular throughout her day of birth] is reflected in her life of activism and fighting for victims of genocide. Algol and Facies involve violence against which she dedicatedly fought. Fomalhaut is one of the four great mythical stars of Persia; Bernadette Brady says its presence in the chart will give one's life a pronounced mythical quality. It's interesting that the first names of note on the manifest of the Buffalo plane crash were Des Forges and the 9/11 widow-activist.
Brady also says that a planet culminating in paran is particularly strong. Des Forges has Sadalmelek as Moon was culminating, indicating that maternal/childhood influences enhanced her creative work and associations.
Capella angular as her Moon was culminating gives the freedom seeking for others that she displayed in her fight for genocide victims.
Fomalhaut as both Mercury and Mars culminated in her foundation show what she will be remembered for as well as the basic principles that underlay her lifework.
