2984 Chaucer

Geoffrey Chaucer (/ˈtʃɔːsər/; c. 1343 – 25 October 1400), known as the Father of English literature, is widely considered the greatest English poet of the Middle Ages and was the first poet to have been buried in Poet's Corner of Westminster Abbey. While he achieved fame during his lifetime as an author, philosopher, alchemist and astronomer, composing a scientific treatise on the astrolabe for his ten year-old son Lewis, Chaucer also maintained an active career in the civil service as a bureaucrat, courtier and diplomat. Among his many works, which include The Book of the Duchess, the House of Fame, the Legend of Good Women and Troilus and Criseyde, he is best known today for The Canterbury Tales.

Yippee! I'm a writer. (At least I'm inspired to be one now.)
I have 7 of these writer asteroids with exact conjunctions to planets in my chart. One on an angle plus Sun, NN, Mars, Pluto, Saturn.

I looked up two authors so far and found meanings for me. I will read biographies of the others and report back.

Marcel Proust (conjunct my sun) has to do with discipline. He wrote during all of his life but lacked the discipline to become serious until later on.

Bradberry (conjunct my north node) equals dream, think, create.
He was prolific in creating short stories, and it didn't matter if they were good or not to him because as soon as one story was done he was busy working on the next one and he didn't want to waste a lot of time taking a chance on longer works. He won many awards for his writings.

Goethe - acting on extreme emotion and philosophical search for life's meaning.
(conjunct Pluto in my chart and now at its return)
Born to wealth, a type of Renaissance man, master of his own language, he influenced many young people to commit suicide which began a new movement in Germany. He also dedicated 60 years writing about the meaning of existence and of the soul.

Charles Dickens - alienation and betrayal, and dark secrets.
( On my 4H cusp/angle )
Dickens started out with a troubled family life. He was saved from factory work at age 12, then became a shorthand reporter and author who traveled the world. He told only two people in his life about his childhood secrets. On the angle, I already found out about a family secret; perhaps there are more to investigate.

So based on Ibsen-Orpheus-Flaubert as the basis, I'll... write dreary homelife stuff as an emo pining away for (the not!fjords) the prostitutes that I lose a second time because of own fault... when not inciting people to commit suicide due to my writing style being so surreal with the Goethe-Dali, and then end up in search of lost time because of it with Proust on my DC. Consider yourselves warned. #NextHotThing

No, will be, too, with Hemingway/Jupiter and Dickens providing space age workhouse tales courtesy of my Neptune. Scifi (to fantasy) I started off with already with my birthday and Bradbury-SN. What else?

But at least Flaubert was an exact perfectionist, and "Novelists should thank Flaubert the way poets thank spring; it all begins again with him. There really is a time before Flaubert and a time after him." Much rather associated with something like him than Ibsen's realism, brrh, but O HAI both writers being considered scandalous. Start how you mean to go on? ;)

I do have EmilyBronte conj Wild, too, if you'd allow Wild for Oscar Wilde apart from his actual 12258 as well. 0:-) That's another two within about two degrees of my IC. Scandal, scandal, outrage. ;) (Actual Oscarwilde ~1 conj Nabokov around 20-21 Cancer though, so scandal scandal some more.)

"Begun in 1909, Ŕ la recherche du temps perdu consists of seven volumes totaling around 3,200 pages (about 4,300 in The Modern Library's translation) and featuring more than 2,000 characters. Graham Greene called Proust the "greatest novelist of the 20th century", and W. Somerset Maugham called the novel the "greatest fiction to date". Proust died before he was able to complete his revision of the drafts and proofs of the final volumes." Yeah, I think I have mine. Mostly on the "drone on and on" fronts. ;)

Great people, great potential, only to realize it. Then again, just saw a picture telling the procrastinators of the world not to worry - Mozart wrote the overture to his Don Giovanni on the morning it premiered, too, so no worries. ;)


"If a little dreaming is dangerous, the cure for it is not to dream less but to dream more, to dream all the time."

"Let us leave pretty women to men devoid of imagination."

"Love is space and time measured by the heart."

Marcel Proust

Now I guess I must read some Proust then, having fallen in love already.

1300 Marcelle at 8.44 Leo so under two conj my ASC and some 3 opp Proust. Possibly telling that his first name seems to have been Valentin, too. You'll be glad to know Marcelle's currently transiting over my Valentine I'm sure. ;) Oh, Marcel, how I love you instantly based on nothing and knowing you wrote at least as much as me so far and only got serious later - only my things more the journal-style drivel instead for now.

If he was born July 10, his Sun is on one of my family hotspots as well, my having Alma-Apollo at 16-17 Cancer, his Sun 18 or so? I have nothing but asteroids there myself, but something around the degrees must matter since everybody else in the family and people among my friends had things there, so what am I interacting with then if not some asteroid or other thing not yet chanced upon?
http://www.astro.com/astro-databank/Proust,_Marcel
His Neptune-ASC conj my Hemingway and Jupiter, and like my brother and/or his son, he has Mercury-Sun at 18 Cancer. /Random geeking.

You forgot Homer (Homerus) from the list though. My pattern goes Venus/Laotse/Kaali-Philosophia-Homerus-Fox-Nike-Swindle, etc. Not sure about the order with the asteroids, but who's counting?

EDIT: Wow. Proust's Valentine was around early 15 Libra and current transit Proust was around 13.56 R Libra in my chart glance. That's transit Marcelle conj my Valentine and transit Proust conjunct Proust's Val. Lovely.

2 more

Poe = orphan, critic, scandal, humiliation, poverty, heartbreak, desperation, determination, fate, mystery, deception/hoax.
(Conjunct Saturn in my chart)
Poe was a Cappy on the aqua cusp with merc combust. A very challenging set of circumstances in his life.

Lewis Carroll = satire, alter-ego, hesitation, entertainer, inventor, artist, repression, nonsense.
(Also conjunct Saturn in my chart)

I read brief biographies of each author to get an idea for the meanings of the asteroids. Associating the energy of their life experiences. I did not do formal study with these.

I'll add these to the asteroid list in the Ref Library.

EDIT: Just noticed that the last list does not include the writers mentioned earlier like Poe. Is there anyone who could do a thorough sweep?
