The other Sagittarian in the news is the extraordinary Gisèle Pelicot (7 December 1952). Yesterday (19 December), with the main aspect of the day being Venus (women) trine the Sagittarius planet Jupiter (justice), her ex husband was finally convicted of aggravated rape and given the maximum 20-year sentence. Forty-nine co-defendants were found guilty of aggravated rape, attempted rape, or sexual assault while a fiftieth was found guilty of drugging and raping his own wife.
Gisele waived her right to anonymity in order to bring her case to the world’s attention. She has been praised for her courage and her dignity, qualities reflected in Sun Sagittarius (concern with truth) and her Moon in Leo (personal pride).
“She keeps repeating, ‘I am normal’ – she does not want to be considered as an icon,” her lawyer Stéphane Babonneau told the BBC.
“Women generally have a strength in them that they can’t even imagine and that they have to trust themselves. That’s her message.”
