Aspect:

T-Square:

• Transit Saturn in Sagittarius in square with natal Mars in Libra and in opposition with natal Sun in Cancer.

Natal Positions:

• Mars in 3° Libra
• Sun in 5° Cancer

Transits:

• Transit Saturn in 29° Sagittarius

Comment:

Transit Saturn created a t-square with Kormaz’s Sun and Mars. Both these planets are related to the body and vitality and a t-square is one of the hardest aspect in astrology, so some kind of serious limitation was expected (2017-18 predictions) for Korkmaz. The Turkish player is also the first one with planets in cardinal signs (Aries, Cancer, Libra, Capricorn) who is affected by the incoming Saturn in Capricorn (entered Capricorn on the 20th of December). Those signs are the ones who will be mainly challenged in 2018 and 2019.

Tim Hardaway Jr. – Out Indefinitely (Left Leg Injury)

Event:

• December 3, 2017: Tim Hardaway injured his left knee. He has been out for three weeks and he is still out indefinitely. 
  

Aspect:

• Transit Saturn in Sagittarius in square with Sun in Pisces.

Natal Positions:

• Sun in 26° Pisces

Transits:

• Transit Saturn in 28° Sagittarius
• Transit Mercury in 29° Sagittarius

Comment:

The Sun is the core of our personality and it also represents life force and physical vitality. When Saturn creates a hard aspect with the Sun, the individual always experiences some form of grounding and limitation in order to rebuild an aspect of his/her life. The same applies with Hardaway’s injury. It’s a classic Saturn square.

Mercury in Sagittarius near the same degrees triggered the injury and the fact that it went retrograde after that, prolonged the process.
