Napoleon divorces Josephine and retains custody of her adult daughter.

Here we have the words of Josephine after she has finally been divorced. We get a hint of how excruciating it must have been for her to have been cast aside while Napoleon was not willing to part with her daughter - who really did want to get away from the stifling “Royal” situation surrounding Napoleon.

If Josephine can’t be around Napoleon anymore and Hortense can, then Josephine wants at least the equivalent of whatever her Eugène gives Hortense.

Dear Eugène,

Paris, 23 of February, 1810,

I wrote to you a few days ago, as well as to your wife, my dear Eugène. I'm waiting for your news impatiently. I still have a very sad heart. The Emperor is at Rambouillet. The Queen of Holland (Josephine calls Hortense by her title, not her name) accompanied him. I remain alone and this isolation increases my melancholy. I had a fire at home the day before yesterday in the apartment you occupied, the one near your bedroom. It seems that before your departure it was already there, and I am no longer astonished at the smoke about which you complained. It undermined a beam which was crossing the chimney. Everything in the apartment was consumed.

Happily this accident happened during the day and very early in the morning. I only found out about it when everything was over. Your valet has a a very serious illness. I have ordered that he receive the greatest care, but he will not be able to leave till until 8 days have passed. It would be a fifteen day trip after that and at that time you would be just returning. I gave him the order to wait for you here. I was asked to recommend to you the grandson of M. d'Espagnac, former governor of the Invalides. He is in Milan at this moment. I do not know what he wants, but I'm interested in his family. Farewell, my dear son, come back to me with your family. Their presence and your tenderness are very necessary to me. I kiss Auguste and my young girls.

JOSEPHINE.

PS I would be pleased If you would send me gold beads like the ones you gave to Hortense and in the same quantity.

The red dot shows my natal 8th house. The 8th house seems significant to me (if astrology is real) because it is one of my duplicated sign houses. Sagittarius spans the entirety of my 8th house. Let’s look at the 8th house in Sagittarius.

I have Neptune very close to the house of partnership, the 7th, but is in the 8th. Let’s examine that.

Since a trine between Jupiter and Pluto is connected to the previously mentioned aspects, let’s look at that too.

Neptune is on the cusp of the 7th house. What is Neptune like in the 7th house?

My Sun is in the 7th house in Scorpio. Both Scorpio and the 8th house are ruled by Pluto.

Looking at the concepts swirling around the 8th house we see a lot of Pluto, Jupiter, Neptune with some Uranus and Venus thrown in. Everything looks pretty harmonious.

I started doing the hero’s journey as an art project, in part, because I “just knew” I had spiritual gifts that I had no clue how to sharpen. I have been doing this for over 5 years and I don’t even know how to speak publicly about what’s really happening because it sounds so absurd. I will say this project is coming from the other side. I’m so far out on a limb that I can do nothing but continue to serve the Forces that I am serving. The picture the natal chart is showing backs that up all the way.

Josephine says that Napoleon is finally starting to see through Murat.

Josephine is a historical personage that has been called many names. I frequently receive comments calling Josephine either a whore or a tragic victim.

Since we are looking at the Napoleon story searching for the truth, coming at it from every possible angle, I am happy to show Josephine in her own words. To find out who Josephine really was from the Napoleon memoirs click here.

Below, we get a snapshot of Josephine during the time where Napoleon was baited into the disasters in Spain. At this point, Napoleon is in a few traps and he has a limited number of potential “solutions”. At the time of the letter below, one of Napoleon’s choices could’ve been a political marriage that would provide him with a legitimate heir. We learn later on in the story that this “solution” was merely yet another trap.

Here we see how these circumstances impact Josephine’s serenity.

Dear Eugène,
Paris, 2 January, 1809

I wrote to Auguste (Eugène’s wife) yesterday, my dear Eugène. Today I take the opportunity Méjean affords me. I talked a lot with him about my position; it has changed a great deal since Murat's first trip to Spain, where the veil that covered the Emperor's eyes has finally fallen. This family really hates mine to the core, although I have done only good.

Adjustments.jpeg

Murat has some disgruntled friends here and all the events that have been going on for over a year have helped me learn a lot of things and a lot of people. I have kept the greatest silence on all these matters, and in my position one is often obliged to live with one's enemies, but it is always good to know them. I do not meddle with anything, I ask nothing and I have no other desire than to see you from time to time.

I must applaud myself for my conduct. The Emperor is perfect to me; I can only praise his confidence and attachment. He gives me very often his news. I have no other issue than Hortense’s situation. She is really unhappy.

As for my debts, I have taken new means of order and economy, which I hope very much will work out; debts become due with the start of the year they are not nice to cope with. However Auguste gave me very a good gift. I know you would have preferred a boy, but he will arrive at the latest in eighteen months.

While waiting for him, I receive with pleasure the granddaughter whom you give me; everything that comes from you will always be dear to me. It would have been nice to see you in the course of last year; it is a long time that I have been separated from you, my dear Eugène, but I like to believe that the Emperor will allow you this year to make a little trip to Paris. I have just received a letter from him; he tells me in a letter dated the 22nd, that he was marching against the English. It seems that they are in force near Valadolid and that they have left Portugal; it worries me a little, I will be happy only when I learn the result of this news. Farewell, my good Eugene, continue to give me news of Auguste. I kiss you tenderly.

JOSEPHINE.
