The Last Post: 06-04-08_Post_Vote

Tim Russert died at 58 years old. DOB May 7, 1950, Buffalo, NY. Cast a quick chart: Time of birth unknown. Transiting Saturn is exactly opposite his natal Jupiter, both at 3 degrees. He was going into his second Saturn return. Just as first Saturn returns kill people aged around 29, so too the second Saturn return kills 58 year olds. His father was just put into a nursing home at 80, so it's not like Tim didn't have long genes. Even Larry King mentioned it to Wolf Blitzer. But looking at his chart if anyone told him to take better care of his body, he wouldn't have listened. Sun squared Pluto, Mercury conjunct Sun, Venus opposed Mars, Venus squared Uranus. He was going to do what he wanted to do. Sun in Taurus and Moon in Aquarius, both stubborn.

Mentioned many times in the news is he worked until he was exhausted. Tim burnt the candle from both ends. Going to work right after getting back from Italy, celebrating his son's graduation, moving his father to a new nursing home, this grueling Democratic Primary season. One can work too hard, push too much, be too involved, it's called living large.

Now they are saying "Cardiac Arrest" as opposed to "Heart Attack". That sounds more logical to me for a man with no symptoms to drop dead at 58.

How Stress and Diet Cause Heart Attacks

"About 1.2 million Americans suffer from heart attacks annually, and about 40 percent die from them. Russert sadly fit the profile, in some ways, for those who typically suffer from heart disease - he was overweight and was under heavy stress at times due to his career. He also reportedly suffered from diabetes and people with that disease are at higher risk for heart disease. "
