Episode 12: Alex Murdaugh: The Fallen Heir

In this episode of The Astrology of the Underworld, we break down the chart of Alex Murdaugh, the fallen heir to a legal dynasty whose life unraveled into fraud, addiction, corruption, and the murder of his wife and son. We look at some of the most disturbing signatures in the chart, including a Gemini stellium, Sun conjunct Moon, Mercury conjunct Mars, Venus conjunct Lilith in Taurus, Neptune in Scorpio, and powerful patterns of excess, deceit, rage, and inflation. Throughout the episode, we explore how these placements can reflect charm, duplicity, hidden violence, entitlement, and a shadow life that thrived beneath the surface of respectability. This episode examines the shadow directly, tracing the archetypal patterns moving beneath the mask of the pillar of the community, the husband, the father, and the keeper of a crumbling family empire. We also talk about the financial fraud, the opioid addiction, the abuse of power, the suspicious deaths orbiting the family, and the terrifying lengths someone will go to in order to preserve status, image, and control.
