In 1950, just before young Ted was 4, his mother took him to Tacoma, Washington to live with relatives. She changed their names to Louise Crowell and Theodore Robert Nelson. The move left permanent scars in Ted. He had left the beautiful city of Philadelphia and gone to a dingy, mill town on Puget Sound. He maintained an arrogant disdain for anything he regarded as common. He became very class conscious, jealous about his cousins, and attracted to material possessions. Bundy also had a short fuse, and got into scrapes with other boys. At Boy Scout camp he shoved a plate in a boy's face and hit another over the head with a stick. When he got mad, his blue eyes grew dark and almost black. This kind of violent behavior is characteristic of a person with a club thumb, which Bundy had.1
A year later, in 1951, for arrogance, Louise Crowell married a Navy veteran by the name of Johnnie Culpepper Bundy, whose last name Ted assumed for the rest of his life. Louise, a secretary for the Council of Churches, met Johnnie, who was from North Carolina and a cook at the Veterans Administration (VA) hospital, at Adult Night at the First Methodist Church. Ted now had a step-father, although he never respected him. His grandfather was the only male relative he would ever respect. He said he grew up in a Christian home. He was a regular church goer and Vice President of the Methodist Youth Fellowship.
Bundy made good grades in school. He said he didn't have any major problems until he got to his sophomore year in high school when he began to be socially isolated. By this time, he was already beginning a life of crime. He was a thief, shoplifter, and forger of ski lift tickets, although he was never caught for these things.
One day at home, he found his birth certificate, which said father, unknown. He knew for the first time that he was a bastard, and he was very bitter about it. Some of his friends knew it, also, and taunted him about it. The root of bitterness from unconscious guilt seethed inside and boiled up. He stopped calling his step-Father, Dad, and rebelled against him.
At Stanford, Bundy was in a new environment. Not only was he away from home, but he was away from his friends and familiar surroundings. His social immaturity was exposed. His normal strength in the classroom failed. He failed in the one area of life in which he was good. Then to add insult to injury, his girlfriend, who was his first real love, dumped him. The crisis in Ted Bundy's life in 1967 was similar to Job's testing. He said it was the pits for him, the lowest time ever.
Ted returned to the University of Washington in the Fall of 1967. He gave up Chinese altogether and enrolled in Urban Planning, but his heart was not in it. The professor's words were meaningless. He had reached a Spiritual crisis in his life and couldn't deal with it. He dropped out of school by Christmas.
It was after one such party that Ted was so inebriated that he was taken to a fellow Republican's home to sleep it off. The lady of the house crawled into bed with him, took off his clothes, and took his virginity. Ted was a passive participant. Even though he had spent the night with his college girlfriend, he would never have initiated sex with her. It would have desecrated his pure love with carnality.
Bundy had a temporary job in a Seattle department store where he learned that he could sell women anything. He spent the first half of 1969 at Temple University in Philadelphia, where he studied urban affairs and theatrical arts. He learned about acting and make-up and bought a fake mustache. All this would soon contribute to Bundy's criminal masks of deception.
In the summer of 1969, Bundy returned to Seattle and lived in the Washington University district. He worked as a legal messenger. On September 30, he met an appealing, 24-year old medical secretary and divorcee. She was the daughter of a successful Utah doctor. The woman fell for Bundy, and he couldn't get her out of his mind. He even led her to believe that he wanted to marry her, although it was really her idea and he simply played along with it. He was, however, dissociative and had the woman in a separate compartment of his mind while he chased others.
Another compartment of Bundy's mind at the time was for violent pornography. He would prowl around at night, peep into women's windows, and steal things. However, his new girlfriend encouraged him to return to college; so he returned to the University of Washington in the summer of 1970 and studied psychology. He was an excellent student and didn't miss a single question on his final exam. He worked with a medical supply company. But he continued his late night patrols and thievery.
In the spring of 1972, he graduated with a degree in psychology. The number, 72, stands for the internal gates of the criminal justice system. He tried to go to law school, but his Law School Aptitude Test results were too low, and every law school turned him down. He worked with psychiatric outpatients at Seattle’s Harborview Hospital. And he was a volunteer on the re-election campaign for Republican Governor Dan Evans. One day when he was shopping with his girlfriend, the medical secretary, he caught a purse snatcher and held him until police arrived. The Seattle Times covered the story. It was the first time Bundy was mentioned in the papers.
In 1973, he was finally accepted to the University of Utah College of Law for the fall term. However, he didn't attend, but went to the new University of Puget Sound law school at night. In May of 1973, he began work in Olympia for Ross Davis, head of the state Republican central committee, for $1,000 a month.
Ted's law studies at the University of Puget Sound in the fall of 1973 were a total failure, a repeat of the 1967 burnout in Chinese studies. He was disappointed that it wasn't an Ivy League school. Appearances meant everything to Ted, and the law school was an office building in downtown Tacoma. However, he kept up appearances, attended classes faithfully, and expressed an active interest in his studies.
During Christmas, 1973, Ted's steady girlfriend, the medical secretary, flew home to Utah, while his first love flew up to be with him. They stayed in the apartment of a married couple who were vacationing in Hawaii. His fist love talked marriage, and Bundy conned her. She flew home to California thinking they were engaged. Ted left the airport and drove over to be with his other girlfriend, the medical secretary. He never looked back, and never called his first love again. A month later his first love called and demanded an explanation, but Bundy said nothing. She blew up and never wanted to hear from him again.
What happened? Did Bundy intend to dump her all along? No, this is the sign of another problem. It is associated with dissociation in which a person puts something out of mind. Dissociation may be caused by childhood abuse, as in the case of Bundy. People in dissociation may simply walk away from from a problem and fail to take responsibility for their actions. They may simply not show up for school or work. Promising a person marriage and then simply walking away is the ultimate in dissociation.
Washington-Oregon
On January 31st, Lynda Ann Healy, 21, vanished from her basement room in the University of Washington district. Her bed sheets and pillow case were blood stained and a blood stained night gown was in the closet. Her skull was found about a year later with signs of being clubbed.
On March 12, Donna Gail Manson, 19, disappeared en route to a concert at Evergreen State College in Olympia, Washington. On April 17, Susan Elaine Rancourt,18, disappeared on her way to see a German language film at Central Washington State University in Ellensburg. On May 6, Roberta Kathleen Parks, 22, failed to return from a late night stroll at Oregon State University at Corvallis. Five more girls disappeared during the summer.
Future Wife
Bundy needed a summer job before going to law school in Utah in September. On May 23, 1974, he was hired by the Washington State Department of Emergency Services. He was quite popular with the women. He soon met Carole Boone, a free spirit generally regarded as the most competent DES employee. Her life was in tatters after her second divorce and the recent death of her favorite uncle.
Utah
The murders moved to Utah on October 2, 1974 when Nancy Wilcox, 16, a cheerleader, disappeared in Salt Lake City. On October 18, Melissa Smith, 17, disappeared in Midvale. Her raped and bludgeoned body was unearthed in the Wasatch Mountains nine days later. On October 30th, Laura Aime, 17, disappeared from Lehi while walking home in costume from a Halloween party. However, Bundy's luck ran out on November 8th, when he attempted to kidnap Carol DaRonch, 18, from a Salt Lake City shopping mall. She escaped and later identified him in a lineup. Later, on November 8th, Debbie Kent, 17, was kidnapped from Salt Lake City's Viewmont High School.
Colorado-Idaho
The murders moved to Colorado the next year, 1975. On January 12, Caryn Campbell, 23, a nurse, disappeared from a ski lodge at Snowmass in Aspen. On March 15, Julie Cunningham, 26, a sporting goods employee, disappeared en route to a tavern in Vail. On April 15, Melanie Cooley, 18, disappeared while riding her bicycle in Nederland. Her body was discovered eight days later with a crushed skull. Bundy confessed to killing Lunette Culver, 13, after he kidnapped her from her junior high school in Pocatello, Idaho, on May 6, 1975. On July 1, Shelly Robertson, 24, disappeared from Golden. Her remains were found on August 23 in a mine shaft near the Berthoud Pass.
In the daytime, Bundy was a master of disguise, and he was attractive to women. Bundy was like the devil in a celebrity that attacks women. In his trials, young women always lined the front rows of the courtroom to experience his spell of evil. Bundy could feign car trouble, or put his arm in a cast, and ask for help from a young, stupid girl; and she would soon be handcuffed or knocked unconscious and lying in his car.
At night, he became a cat who prowled in the dark. He walked through unlocked doors or picked the locks. His weapon of choice was a club. He used a crowbar, or at the Chi Omega murders in Florida, he picked up an oak limb outside for a club. He battered his victims, knocked them senseless, and raped them. He often drove hundreds of miles away with dead or unconscious bodies. He dumped the nude bodies in the wilderness where wild animals strewed them for hundreds of yards. Those he captured alive were taken into the wilderness and made to dress like the women in his detective magazines so he could act out his fantasies. He took pictures with a polaroid camera to remember the moments. Then he would kill them with ferocious blows of his club. Sometimes he would dismember them. And sometimes he would keep the skulls for souvenirs. Sometimes he returned to the scene to visit the remains and relive his crimes.
Bundy was a man preoccupied with Bel. Bundy's motivation was the high that came from the power of Satan as Bel, the god of Babylon, as he tried to be like the Most High God. Bundy's greatest thrill by his own admission was when his victims breathed their last and he was playing God, though the god was Bel.
Colorado was the first to file murder charges against Bundy. On October 22, 1976, Day 296, Colorado police filed murder charges against Bundy for killing Caryn Campbell, who disappeared from a ski resort in Aspen on January 12, 1975. Colorado is in the region that corresponds to the summits, which represent both the high places of Baal as well as the Middle East peace summits. US Secretary of State, William Rogers, sponsored peace summits in 1969-70, and the cease-fires in the 1973 Yom Kippur War were peace treaties.
On June 7, 1977, Bundy escaped from a Colorado courthouse. During a recess in the proceedings, Bundy was left alone in the courtroom. He knew the building well, since he had been studying in the law library to represent himself. He went to a window on the second floor and jumped out. When it came time to resume the trial, Bundy was gone. Someone had seen a man jump out of a courthouse window and asked if that was normal. Bundy had double dressed that morning. He was not shackled. He took off his top clothes and walked straight into downtown Aspen where he mingled with the crowd. He stole food from cabins to survive, and stayed in abandoned cabins. He was recaptured 6 days later when he tried to leave Aspen in a stolen car.
On December 30, 1977, Bundy escaped again from Garfield County Jail in Colorado. He lost 30 pounds so that he could crawl through the opening for a light fixture in the ceiling. Other inmates had reported him crawling around in the ceiling, and a welder had been called to seal the hole. But before the welder got around to doing the job, Bundy escaped. Bundy crawled into the attic and made his way to a closet in the jailer's apartment. When the apartment was empty, he casually walked out the front door. He wasn't discovered missing for 15 hours.
Tallahassee, Florida is in Leon County, which is county #13, the number for the double blessing of Israel. Florida has been associated with the Palestinians at Gaza. From Colorado, the region of the summits, for the Middle East peace process, Bundy went to Florida via Chicago, which in the region of Naphtali, the doe and symbol of peace. The map of a criminal spells out the Plan of God.
On Saturday afternoon, January 14th, Ted grew restless and apparently scouted out the Chi Omega Sorority house. Everyone was gone from the house that afternoon for a while, and when they returned, the housemother's cat was spooked. Its hair stood on end. It ran through the girls' legs and out the door and didn't return for 2 weeks. That night, in the early morning hours of January 15th, Bundy picked up an oak limb outside and entered the sorority house where he raped and murdered two girls and bludgeoned two others. They were Lisa Levy, 20, and Margaret Bowan, 21. Two other girls, who had no knowledge of what was happening, experienced stark terror out of the blue. Each had decided for different reasons to go down to the kitchen, but both were so overcome with fear that they stayed in their rooms. That same night, less than three blocks away, Bundy savaged another sleeping coed.
On February 9, 1978, Day 40, Bundy kidnapped Kimberly Diane Leach, 12, from her junior high school in Lake City, Florida. Her body was found in an abandoned hog shed nearly two months later. The date means: The Plagues of Egypt (9), sexual abuse (78), and maximum divine discipline (40).It was Bundy's last murder.
Ted Bundy was arrested by the Pensacola Police on February 15, 1978, Day 46. The date means: A covering (15), sexual abuse (78), and pregnancy (46). Bundy's crime spree of sexual abuse was finally covered. He would begin the trial phase. Pregnancy can mean the beginning of a project. However, history would report that Bundy got married and fathered a child during his detention at Raiford. Pensacola is in Escambia County #9, for the Plagues of Egypt.
Bundy was tried for the murder of Kimberly Leach on January 7, 1980 in Orlando. Judge Wallace Jopling, 62, presided. On February 7th 1980, Bundy was again found guilty. On February 9 at his sentencing hearing, he finagled a marriage. Carole Ann Boone had taken out a marriage license, and the judge had allowed Bundy to have a blood test as required by Florida law. All that was needed was for Ted and Carole to agree to the marriage contract publicly before a notary. However, Orange County would not allow it in its jail. Ted got Carole on the witness stand to plead for his life, and they agreed to marry. Though they were surprised, the judge and court were witnesses. They were married. Later that day, the jury agreed that Bundy should die. It was 2 years to the day since Kimberly Leach was kidnapped. On February 12, 1980, Judge Jopling gave Ted Bundy his third death sentence. Judge Jopling was 62, for the end. Bundy's life was to come to an end.
In 1984, guards discovered that Bundy had hacksaw blades in his cell. He had completely sawed through the top and bottom of one bar and glued it back in place. After many appeals all the way to the US Supreme Court, Ted Bundy was finally executed January 24, 1989. He was 42, which stands for Baal, the bear, and Russia. The number, 24, stands for Satan's strategic attack on Israel. The number, 89, stands for an authority counterattack. The authority counterattack was the recognition of the State of Palestine by the United Nations the previous month.
Marriage
Bundy met Carole Boone in May 1974 at age 27. She may not have been his Right Woman, but she did show up on the Destiny Line in his hand.1 He married her when he was 33 in 1980, and she stood by him for better or for worse.
Religion
Bundy rejected God, and his heart was hardened. Whether he was ever a Christian is not apparent because of his degeneracy. He was such a liar that even if he were a Christian, he would not have known it. He was a Methodist, who later converted to Mormonism, a cult. And in prison he claimed to be Hindu. Before he died, he thought he was a Christian. Whether believer or unbeliever, he was a reversionist. Like Cain, he rejected God and wound up a murderer. He did not instantaneously turn violent as a person possessed, but he followed the road down in reversionism (Romans 1:18-32) to the sin unto death.
The Ascendant
The Ascendant was that sign that was rising over the horizon at the time of birth. It indicates how a person is perceived by the world and how the person perceives his relationship to the world. The Ascendant was Cancer, the crab, on the cusp of Leo, the lion. Being on the cusp means sharing influence from two signs. Cancer contained a pair of planets, the Last Adam, for scourging, and the God of the Covenants, for a guard. Bundy was a violator of security who inflicted terrible punishment like scourging on his victims. Ultimately he had to be guarded. Bundy was also under the influence of Leo, which is a symbol of the government. He had a natural affinity for politics, and worked for the Republican Party at one time. In Bundy's case, the lion also represented Satan, the roaring lion seeking someone to devour (1 Pet 5:8) rather than the Lion of the Tribe of Judah. Bundy's last killing spree, which was in Florida, began in Leon County, which is a variation of the name, Leo.
The Descendant Sign, which was setting, was Aquarius on the cusp of Capricornus. Aquarius corresponds to Florida, where Bundy was captured, convicted, and executed.
The Bowl
The Bowl is like a cup and symbolizes identification with blessing or cursing through drinking. In Bundy's case, the Bowl symbolized a bowl of wrath, like the seven bowls of wrath in the Tribulation (Rev 16). Wine was mixed with water in bowls, and drinking the wine from a cup, or goblet, was a symbol of intoxication, which corresponded to cursing (Jer 25:15-29; 49:12; Isa 51:17; Ezek 23:32-34).
For a cup is in the hand of the Lord, and the wine foams;The Bowl with all the planets on one side of the chart is also a sign of a person who is missing something. He needs others to complete him. Bundy was a social animal.
It is well mixed, and He pours out of this;
Surely all the wicked of the earth must drain and drink down its dregs. (Psalm 75:8)
The meaning of the five signs in the Bowl with planets in them was:
1. Taurus - symbolizes Idaho and the murders there (see Zodiac Map).Sun Sign
2. Cancer - symbolizes Washington and Oregon and the murders there.
3. Virgo - symbolizes the Virgin. Bundy, the son of a seduced virgin, murdered young women.
4. Libra - symbolizes the scales of Justice. The Almighty God planet (Jupiter) in Libra symbolizes the Supreme Court. Bundy pronounced himself sovereign judge over his victims, and his case was appealed to the Supreme Courts of Florida and the US. The bottom of heaven, IC, in Libra symbolizes capital punishment. Bundy was executed in Florida.
5. Scorpius - symbolizes the scorpion and conflict with the deadly enemy, Satan, who was a murderer from the beginning (John 8:44). The Red Planet in Scorpius symbolizes murder. Bundy was empowered by Satan. The Stellium of four planets in Scorpius gives great power to the sign.
The Sun sign was Scorpius. The Sun sign, which is also called the birth sign, is the best indicator of the person. Scorpius, the scorpion, represents conflict with the deadly enemy, Satan. Bundy was the pawn and ambassador for Satan. The Sun in Scorpius also symbolizes Satan disguised as an angel of light (2 Corinthians 11:14).
Moon Sign
The Moon sign usually symbolizes the Right Woman. The Moon was in opposition to the Mediator planet (Uranus) in Taurus. This was the only opposition in the chart. The Moon in Scorpius for Bundy would represent the Synagogue of Satan (Revelation 2:9) or Jezebel (Revelation 2:20). He was driven by the Prostitute of Babylon. The Mediator planet in Taurus for Bundy symbolized the sacrifice of the victims in Idaho to Satan through murder. It also symbolized Bundy's desire for prosperity. It can symbolize prosperity obtained through a mediator or reference.
Stellium in Scorpius
The presence of three or more planets in a sign is called a Stellium. A Stellium packs extra power into the sign. There were four planets in Scorpius in Bundy's chart. They were: the Savior planet, the Sun, the Red Planet, and the Moon. In Bundy's case these planets have the following meanings:
The other planets in Bundy's Birth Chart have the following meanings:
The Ascendant Sign was Cancer with the Last Adam, for scourging punishment, and the God of the Covenants, for a guard. Cancer corresponds to Washington and Oregon, where Bundy's murders began. The Mediator Planet was in Taurus, corresponding to the sacrifice of Bundy's victims in Idaho.
Bundy's judicial problems were symbolized by two planets and the Bottom of Heaven, IC, in Libra. The Almighty God in Libra symbolized the Supreme Courts of Florida and the US, which ruled on Bundy's appeals. The Bottom of Heaven, IC, in Libra symbolizes the capital punishment of Bundy, and the Morning Star in Libra symbolizes the decisive execution of Bundy in the electric chair.
And the Redeemer Planet in Virgo symbolizes a redeemer of Israel and links Bundy's life to the history of the rise of modern Israel.1
