Jimmy Savile Dies 29 October 2011
Obituary: Sir Jimmy Savile: "I'm just unusual" (from BBC News)In his distinctive Yorkshire tones, the words "Now then, now then" meant Sir Jimmy Savile was getting down to business.For more than six decades, Sir Jimmy, who has died at the age of 84, was one of Britain's most established showbusiness figures and a leading charity worker. The country's first pop disc jockey, Sir Jimmy was also a seasoned television presenter, marathon runner, Mensa member, wrestler and fundraiser.With his trademark tracksuit and chunky jewellery, he pre-dated hip-hop fashion by about 40 years. But for both his on-screen recipients and the beneficiaries of his charity campaigns, he was the iconic Mr Fixit.Jimmy Savile was born on 31 October 1926 in Leeds, the youngest of seven children.During World War II he was conscripted as a Bevin Boy, working in the coal mines as an alternative to active service in the armed forces.In an era dominated by live music, he started playing records in local dance halls. In 1947, according to his autobiography, he started using twin turntables and a microphone, effectively becoming the first disc jockey.
A born exhibitionist, Savile was spotted by television cameras spinning discs at his own Plaza dance hall in Manchester. He grasped the opportunity to become a broadcaster, working at Radio Luxembourg before moving to Radio One. He was the first host of Top of the Pops in 1964, and helped front the programme for more than 20 years. Sir Jimmy also had a role on the music show's final edition in 2006.He was on BBC television for nearly two decades from 1974 in his guise as a perennial Santa Claus, granting viewers' wishes from his magic chair on Jim'll Fix It. The programme received 20,000 letters a week. A handful of correspondents went on to see their dream come true, and with it they received a hallowed Jim'll Fix It badge.Savile maintained this benevolent persona beyond the screen, raising more than £40 million for charity over the decades. He personally helped the nursing staff at Leeds Infirmary and ran the entertainments section of Broadmoor high security psychiatric hospital. He ran more than 200 fundraising marathons, and as a devout Roman Catholic was given a Papal knighthood for his efforts.He was similarly rewarded by the Queen in 1990, and acted as an unofficial advisor to the Prince of Wales for a number of years.
Jimmy Savile was born 31 October 1926 in Leeds, England. Unfortunately, I could not find the time for Jimmy's birth so as usual I have used noon.One would think that Uranus or Aquarius feature strongly in his chart considering his unusual and eccentric nature. I suspect that he may be Gemini rising which would put the Sun and Venus in the 5th House, befitting his sense of drama and love of the limelight, Jupiter in Aquarius would then be conjunct the Mc and Uranus in the 10th House. The Scorpio Sun/Venus are not normally given to open expression of affection. They oppose Chiron in Aries and Mars in Taurus which is square to Jupiter. This can present as difficulties in relationships by making too many demands upon the self and others. Particularly as Mars is also sextile Pluto, an aspect that inclines one to persevere with projects until success is achieved.The Sun/Jupiter mid-point is at 27-33' degrees of Sagittarius, trine to Neptune and Chiron but square to Uranus at 26-01' degrees of Pisces. This is his eccentricity and joviality expressed in a way that benefitted those who needed help of some kind. The trine aspect from Uranus to Saturn and Mercury would have contributed to his considerable intellect. That he made other peoples' difficulties his life's work and became their 'Mr Fixit' can be gleaned from that aspect too, but with the square to Neptune this would not always have been easy for him.
This aspect can create a sense of confusion, depression and I suspect also a sense of loneliness at times. He stated: "The reason I can do things that other people can't is because I'm a single guy and have plenty of time." "I don't want anything from anybody. I'm just unusual." L.S.
For more than three decades, Savile was most actively involved with the spinal unit at Stoke Mandeville Hospital in Buckinghamshire. He stayed there so often he had his own suite.He eschewed the services of a manager or secretary, and shrank from the intimacy of personal relationships. He claimed to have always slept alone, and saved his greatest affection and reverence for his late mother. He called her the Duchess, and lived with her until her death in 1973. For the rest of his life, Savile continued to own the house they shared.
