It is strange when people vanish without leaving a trace, and it must be devastating for the families who have lost someone and have no clue as to what has happened to them. I think I would rather know, even if they had died. I thought this was a topic worth exploring, and I am curious to see the natal charts and transits for their sudden disappearance. I will post various charts on this topic; and I will file them all under Vanished without a Trace, in the left hand menu of this blog. Bear in mind most of these individuals have no birth time, and so again the information is limited regarding the individual in that respect. First up is George Bass, he was born the son of a farmer. His father sadly passed away when he was six years old. George attended Boston Grammar School, and later trained in medicine. At 18 years old he was accepted in London to join a group of surgeons, and in 1794, he joined the Royal Navy as a surgeon. He later married and started his own boating business. However, after this nobody knows what has happened to him. He set sail on his last voyage on a boat called the Venus, and this was on the 5th February 1803, and he was not seen since. One theory is that Bass was captured by the Spanish and was sent to work in the silver mines. However, this theory fell short when the slaves were released, and there was no sign of him or his crew. An adventurer wrote about Bass in his 1835 Biography, claiming Bass had attempted a forced trade at gunpoint in Chile, and was captured when he let his guard down. This account was considered to be far from factual, so nobody knows the fate of George Bass.
Astrologically George has nothing in the element of water, apart from Chiron in Pisces. It is quite funny that he lived most of his life on the sea, and was no stranger to water in that sense. George was born under a fixed t-square, he had Sun in Aquarius opposite Saturn in Leo, and he had Uranus in Taurus at the apex. He was a business man and had influential friends. Often, Sun-Saturn can end up in a position of authority, and this combination of planets would describe him as a self-willed and determined individual.
George Bass had a Venus-Jupiter-Pluto conjunction in Capricorn. These three planets are connected to money and Capricorn is the sign of business and accomplishment. Bass had entered a syndicate with friends and he invested £10,000 pounds in goods to ship and sell. The trading and selling is shown by his Mars in Gemini square Neptune in Virgo. Mars in Gemini is usually a good placement for quick wit, communication and fast trade. He would be very good in a competitive business, and it can also indicate many short journeys. His Mars-Neptune aspect is a good contact for those who enjoy adventure at sea. I have seen this combination in Madeline McCann’s natal chart, she is the little girl who disappeared during her holiday abroad.The transits around his disappearance -
Transiting Saturn in Virgo was trine Pluto in Capricorn, indicating an ease in his authority and business skills and working towards his goals. He had plenty of resourcefulness at this time. Transiting Uranus in Libra squared Venus in Capricorn, and there was some disruption and surprise shocks in his relationships and perhaps a sudden separation with business associates (Venus in Capricorn). It can indicate that he needed some freedom in partnerships at this time. A sudden change of fortune is indicated here, but there is an uncooperative element here too (Venus-Uranus). Transiting Uranus trined his Sun, so he was most likely experiencing some change at this time, and he needed to feel liberated and do his own thing. Transiting Neptune was conjunct his North Node in Scorpio exact, and could symbolize his mysterious disappearance. Was this his death? Was he captured? The combination of Scorpio is dark, mysterious and secretive and combined with nebulous and foggy Neptune it seemed to have led to his disappearance, and there will always be suspicion around him and confusion around the fate of George Bass???
