Notes on Game 5

Nov. 1, 2021

Game 5 occurred on a near lunar return for the Astros, as the Moon in transit was almost exactly conjunct their natal Moon. Still, but by the end of the game, the Moon in transit had advanced to within one degree of the Astros natal Moon and it had been well-channeled by their catcher Martin Maldonado. (Catchers are ruled by the Moon and the sign of Cancer.) Maldonado, who had not hit well in the Series, would have three RBIs. He would walk with the bases loaded to score the tying run. This walk in the fifth inning occurred at 10:21 pm with Neptune conjunct the MC. (Neptune rules walks. Neptune also rules sacrifices.) Interestingly, Maldonado squared to bunt before taking ball four.

Game 5 was also played with the Sun conjunct the Astros natal Neptune. Yuli Gurriel, the Astros first baseman, also had a big game with 3 RBIs. (Neptune rules first basemen.)
