From Mary S. Lovell’s autobiography of Betty Pack, “The legend of Betty Pack is simple enough. She was a beautiful American spy recruited first by the British Secret lntelligence Service in 1938 and later by the American OSS. Her method of obtaining information was singular: seduction.”
Her exploits are many, from EIGHT WOMEN WAR SPIES, by George Sullivan, “… saved the lives of as many as 100,000 Allied soldiers by stealing secret code books from the enemy during World War II.”
How odd, our culture… during peace time her exploits would simply be a spy scandal… during a war it’s heroic… It depends on the times… and which side is telling the story.
It is what it is… and she was a remarkable woman who utilized the planetary energies in her natal horoscope to the fullest… and may have changed the course of WWII with her successful missions of stealing secret code books from the Axis enemy.
We will probably never know all the details… simply because of the basic nature of Scorpio… ‘secretive.’
Let’s look in the reference book, THE RULERSHIP BOOK, by astrologer Rex E. Bills, “espionage = Neptune, Pluto, Scorpio”
With this article I want to share with my dear reader’s another fascinating and uncannily accurate astrology reference book easily read by all, THE MARS VENUS AFFAIR, Astrology’s Sexist Planets …by Wendell Perry and Linda Perry.

In this remarkable book Wendell and Linda Perry write a section on every combination of the Venus and Mars location in the signs of a natal horoscope with a historical person’s biography that is an expression of that Venus/Mars location. I will use them as my source and quote them directly… simply because I can’t write it any better than they have… and it’s not nice to plagiarize…
From page 258, “If you have Mars in Scorpio with Venus in Scorpio you are… the Ultimate Powerhouse of Passion... You and sex have a special relationship. Sometimes your sexuality is your greatest adversary. You struggle with it night and day. It gets the best of you as often as you get the best of it, but winning and losing is less important than the struggle. At times your sexuality is your greatest friend. It provides you with a phenomenal, almost supernatural, store of physical energy and psychological intensity that cannot be confined to your sex life. Lovemaking represents only a small part of your sexual power, though it may be your favorite part.”
Born November 22, 1910 in Minneapolis, Minnesota (Lovell 1992)
Besides the Venus at 28 degrees of Scorpio and Mars at 10 degrees of Scorpio… her natal Sun location is at 29 degrees of Scorpio… the most intense point of the sign! …and that Decanate (that 2½ degree section the Zodiac) is ruled by Venus (beauty) …in Scorpio (spy)… ergo, beautiful seductive spy…
What I have found most intriguing in this research is the “Yod” or “Finger of God” formation in her chart with the Sun at the focal point. Two planets in sextile (60 degree angle – 5 degree orb allowance) Saturn (behind the scenes service) at 1 degree of Taurus and Pluto (war, spies) at 27 degrees of Gemini… which both then form Inconjunct angles (150 degrees – 2 degree orb allowance) to the SUN at 29 degrees of Scorpio (intense spy)… The formation as it appears on the chart looks like a pointer or an arrowhead… and in astrology circles has often been referred to as ‘a strong destiny aspect.’
When birth times are unknown astrologers will often use Noon as a hypothetical birth time. Noon is when the Sun is directly overhead and is at the zenith of its influence for that day. It represents sort of a potential ‘Destiny’ for all the individuals born on that day. The top of the chart is referred to as the Median Coli, or the Mid Heaven… and the cusp of the 10th House which rules world acclaim… fame, etc. It would not surprise me if she was in fact born around Noon… the destiny chart of Noon clearly indicates it.
The focal point for the ‘Destiny’ formation is at 29 degrees of Scorpio, it is also the Mid Heaven (fame) and it conjuncts exactly with the Sun (essence = beautiful, seductive spy, war heroine)…
This is a classic example of the native playing out their life’s script, the natal horoscope, to its fullest potentials. It’s not what’s in the horoscope… but what you… by your free will choice… choose to do with it.
She was a female “Bond, Agent 007” archetype. Seductive, Scorpio, Secret Agent… all the keywords of Neptune, Pluto, and Scorpio...
The wife of a Diplomat… who had international contacts… recruited by British Intelligence and then the American OSS… seduced Nazi and Italian Officers… obtained secrets and codes that helped to plan the successful Allied D-Day Invasion of WWII… and certainly the right person for that necessary job at the moment… at least for the Allies… thus making her a heroine and legend in our times.
