In the last part of my astrological experiment I ask myself the question, if a date, an author happened to mention in his book, really is “coincidental”. Will we find the story in the chart??
Audrey Niffenegger is giving plenty of dates in her novel „The Time Traveller´s Wife”, some of them with an exact time and place. I chose one of those events, it happened on June 16th in 1968, 10:46 pm (Chicago, IL), and the chart looks like that:

Aquarius is rising: Something extraordinary is happening, suddenly and totally unexpected.
Uranus in the 8th house (conjunct Pluto): The incident is somehow magic, fateful, something that has got to do with the experience of power and powerlessnes, something mysterious, that will change this persons life inevitable.
The strength of the 5th house with the Sun, Mercury, Venus and Mars in it, suggests, that the event has something to do with Children or other 5th-house-topics, like leisure or amusement.
Actually it has something to do with children, because this is the date of Henry DeTamble´s first time travel on his 5th birthday.
He travels into to the past and finds himself at the Field Museum where he had been earlier that day with his parents. (The above mentioned stellium in the 5th house is in Gemini, so it´s about knowledge, science, books…)
Neptune in the Midheaven: Disappearing is the main topic in this incident, it becomes reality for Henry for the first time, but stays secret for the others. The next day Henry will think it was just a dream.
The Pisces-Moon (the innocent child) has it´s first contact with his fate and disposition (Moon opposite Pluto on the 8th house cusp, and trining Neptune on the Midheaven).
Jupiter in the 7th house: young Henry meets an elder self, widely travelled and knowing, who came to guide him, to protect him and to explain what had happened.
