On August 14, Yajoi Kusama, a Japanese highly influential avantgarde artist, nicknamed the “polkadot queen”, died at the age of 97. She mainly painted dots in bright colors in all shapes and sizes, and was ultimately very successful with the general public, her work sold excellently. She was extremely driven, also because her art was the way for her to stay psychologically balanced. From her early years she had intense visual and auditory hallucinations that she turned into art so that she could stay on top of her psychosis. It is the principle of creative therapy, by expressing the problem images and thus placing them outside of you, objectifying them, they partly lose their direct evil influence (because they are no longer in you, the direct energy line is broken).
Difda
Unfortunately, it is not possible to find out what her birth time was, but the chart made for noon also shows some extremely interesting points. The parts, the angles and the cusps must of course remain out of the interpretation, but the strength of such a reduced horoscope is that it automatically brings more focus. Because what immediately stands out in this radix of Kusama, is the Sun that has just entered its exaltation and feels great in Aries, dots of course fall under the Sun and to the fiery Sun in fiery Aries belong bright colors. The polkadot Sun is on the star Difda in the Sea Monster that threatens to swallow Princess Andromeda chained to an island!
Melan-Cholia
The Sea-Monster is the concentrated force of the salty, raging waters of the oceans, the overwhelming emotions that threaten the princess, a symbol of the soul. Andromeda is always strongly associated with arts, it is a Venus constellation, because Venus is a Water planet that can structure the Water, through Venus the soul escapes the confusion of the Waters and their Sea Monster.The Monster serves Poseidon, the whimsical evil god of the oceans. The Sun also makes a trine with a very small orb of one degree with Saturn in Capricorn, the most melancholical position there is, about which Richard Saunders writes that it drives you crazy and that people with this position are visited by devils. After all, the amount of black bile is overwhelming with the most gloomy planet in the most gloomy sign. This you can call the Clavis Figuris, the position ultimately driving everything on.
Bright colors
Venus is strong in its own sign and if she has a diurnal chart Venus has disposition by triplicity over Saturn showing the beautiful form can partlycontrol the hallucinations. Also the fact that Saturn has a lot of essential dignity shows she can live with this problem. This Venus shows her artistic talent, her insight in creating beautiful forms.The bright colors are partly intended to compensate for the extreme coldness of Saturn, but you can also see them in the position of Venus on the fiery Ram’s Horn Hamal and Mars, squaring the Sun and sextiling Venus. So Venus (beautiful form) and the Sun (dots) work closely together to control Saturn. The Moon is in conjunction with Venus by antiscion and yes lunar pumpkins and mirror rooms were other favourite images!
