I would really like a tranist chart too see how his planets were being aspected at the time of his death.But from looking at his natal his moon is very afflicted along with his Pluto. Moon opposite Pluto Uranus conjunct Pluto Venus conjunct Pluto ^^^^From what I've read those aspects can be very hard dealing with in the natal chart. IP: Logged |

It would be very hard to know when he actually died as they found his body and it was already dead for possibility days. Some sources say he was too depressed after his girlfriend passed away. IP: Logged |

That's very sad looking at his natal I can tell he was very emotional.Well since it wont be no time of death for suicide you could always put in the day he was found dead.Atleast then we can have an idea what his transits was like.
Since "Seattle, Washington" isn't working try "Olympia, Washington" IP: Logged |

Yeah i got it.. they said estimated time of death april 5th.. he was found april 15th. i intuitively guessed around 3a.m. I could be wrong. IP: Logged |

I read once that people with hard natal Moon/Pluto aspects can be so deep and emotional it can scare people away.I have an ex with this aspect he was very deep. Some of the Aspects around his time of death Saturn square Venus orb +0°27' Pluto square Moon orb +1°52' Pluto square Pluto orb -2°03' Uranus square Moon orb -1°38' Saturn conjunction Sun orb +1°07' Cringe looking at all those square going towards his personal planets.Lots of intense energy around the time of his death sad.

Well some people don't handle emotional depth very well.I actually like when people can open up. from Cafe astrology Moon/Pluto quote: Some people with these aspects are more in touch with their feelings than others, and as a result, enjoy tackling problems and learning about emotional complexities, both in themselves and in others. Others with these aspects are hell-bent on burying rather than digging up their deepest feelings. Either way, they are intense individuals!

I love love LOVE Layne Staley and Alice in Chains...been listening to them a lot today, actually. And I went to Staley's apartment in which he died, a month ago..sat outside and blasted AIC in his honor <3He didn't commit suicide. He overdosed on a heroin-cocaine mix. He was a hopeless drug addict. I've read a lot of stories about how after his ex-lover died, he just kind of spiraled downward...no one knew of his death for weeks. He was a recluse. Awakemer, it's funny you say that about him going to you in your sleep lol..because in April I had a dream and he was in it, and I knew he was dead, but I was talking to him and playing with his dreadlocks (he had dreads at one time)..it was sooo bizarre. I had a dream about Pete Steele of Type O Negative, too, who died in 2010. Channeling the spirits of dead musicians FTW! Anyway, if you pay attention to his lyrics, especially when he was in the band Mad Season, they message is quite clear and very chilling. He knew he was going to die because of his addiction. There was an interview with him shortly before his death, and he said he never wanted to die this way. Another interview from the mid 90s asked if he was happy, and I believe he answered something like "I was gettin there.." and then he got teary eyed. I think the death of Demri really did him in. Such a tragedy. His voice is my all-time favorite; he really was grunge. Angsty, hurt, bitter, and very, very sick. RIP Layne, 10 years <3 Mad Season, Wake Up Wake up young man, it's time to wake up Your love affair has got to go For 10 long years, for 10 long years The leaves to rake up
Slow suicide's no way to go, oh Blue, clouded grey You're not a crack up Dizzy and weakened by the haze Moving onward So an infection not a phase Yeah, oh The cracks and lines from where you gave up They make an easy man to read, oh For all the times you let them bleed you For little peace from god you plead, and beg For little peace from god you plead Ah, yeah, ah, yeah, ah, yeah Wake up young man, wake up, wake up Wake up, wake up, wake up, wake up Oh, yeah Wake up young man, it's time to wake up Your love affair has got to go For 10 long years, yeah For 10 long years, the leaves to rake up Slow suicide's no way to go, oh Slow suicide's no way to go Wake up, wake up, wake up

I LOVE him!I am a quite the appreciative lady of Alice In Chains and Layne. As a matter of fact, one of my cats is named after Layne. Suicide, wheather intentionally or not, he wanted out...you can see it in his eyes, you can feel it in his lyrics.... Suicide comes in many forms and fashions...

lovehate, i've often wondered if your username is inspired by their song, Love Hate Love...is it?  a lot of his lyrics mention his father, i believe his dad was also a junkie and had left his mom when Layne was very young..

Tell me how you would get behind the eyes of a Venus conj Pluto aspect. I have to try to feel out aspects, as if I have them, myself. Only then can I work with them.------------------ Passion, Lust, Desire. Check out my journal http://www.mychristianpsychic.com/

Venus conjunct Pluto can get pretty obsessive and even destructive...i have this conjunct by sign but not degree, but it's definitely felt.Venus conj Pluto is also passionate about what he loves. it's easy to get caught up, tangled up, and drown in his own passions and desires.. IP: Logged |

His birthday is coming up in a few days. His mom and friends get together every year to have a small concert in his honour and to raise money to help people overcome their addictions.Has anyone read Angry Chair? It's a good read, with the exception of poor writing, but also sad as he told the author about his demise shortly before his death. You do get the sense that he was a very sensitive soul, but tough as nails as well. He died on the same day as Kurt Cobain, but eight years later on April 5, 2002. His body was not discovered for weeks when his family had the police go check on him. The thought of him being alone made me cry for days. I used to not be able to get through the day without listening to Alice in Chains. Though no one can replace Layne and his amazing gift, the new band member, William DuVall, does sound uncannily like him. But I'd give anything for all of the original members to be around, still making music together. IP: Logged |
