The chart for the pre-trial hearing on 5 November is a standing bowl, self contained and with Saturn as the leading planet. Saturn is found in H. 9 of our common law foundation and legal precedents, where that planet requires serious assumption of moral, ethical and legal obligations as a way of going forward and filling in the empty half of the chart.
In the empty hemisphere are the important Houses that deal with the assets of others, the legal opposition, forensic services and agents and tools, brazen risk taking and confidence games and finally, the outcome of the event. These are read clockwise from Saturn, in order. Pallas Athena is shown at 20°II but is not included in pattern determination such as The Bowl.
The event is derived from the Sun's position, here in the H. of law breaking and in the Sign of Scorpio which is the Sign of resources belonging to others. The Moon is in the House of money but in that Sign of rebellion, Aquarius. Aquarius does not conform to norms and bounds. The Moon rules H. 8, cash, checks and assets belonging to others. How interesting that the Node is not only at the degree of the Sun but also in partile square. This denotes a tragedy and a male figure important to this case is menaced by the affliction seen here.
The last aspect of the Moon in prosecuting the fraud, theft, false uttering & conversion is a sextile to Pluto and an out of Sign inconjunct to Mercury. Aside from serving time (Moon square Mars), there will be an opportunity for restitution due to these aspects, which denote the need to repay the stolen funds. That is not to say that this moral call will be heeded.
Some event will occur at the hearing that is not planned. At pre-trial, JB will advise the court whether a jury is wanted for the crimes charged. The judge may entertain certain motions having to do with legal issues. Any rulings on them will be binding & not relitigated at trial. If JB does not file important motions, they are deemed waived.
The Rising Sign of Sagittarius confirms that this event is a legal proceeding, also shown by the Sun's Sign on H. 9. Once again, Sagittarian ruler Jupiter (the judge himself) is the energy that mediates the powerful tension between Saturn and Uranus. Judge Strickland also has solar support by sextile so he is well situated to govern the hearing with wisdom and eloquence.

Mars is contra parallel Pluto and Saturn is contra parallel Uranus during this morning hearing, so despite the containment shown by The Bowl standing on its edge, emotions are running high.
