VERY sad news as it was just announced that beloved and genius Marvel super-heroes creator Stan Lee died today at 95 at a hospital in Los Angeles.
CNN Article HERE , New York Times article HERE and Washington Post article HERE.
What we owe to Stan Lee is over any estimation. Before being adapted for epic super-heroes movies, Marvel heroes were part of our childhood or teen age and Stan was in its own right called "the Homere of the 20th Century" - in reference to famous ancient Greek writer and poet Homere who wrote the Iliad and Odyssey.
I had the luck to meet Stan for a few minutes during the grand Opening of Universal Island of Adventure, precious minutes that i will cherish forever. Disney and more sent its warmest condolences to Stan Lee children and family.
Here are some pictures of Stan through the years.

Watch ALL Stan Lee cameos since 1898 till 2018 in the video below.
You might also remember my post earlier this year when Stan was going though all kind of problems, both physically and socially ( with his associates who stole money from him, etc ) in which i was explaining that the transit of Saturn currently on his Sun degree in Capricorn was responsible that all these happened at the same time, and that he'll be lucky if he succeed to survive to 2018. No need to say that i would have preferred to be wrong but Saturn is "Murphy's Law" ( everything that can go wrong will go wrong ) and also, symbolically, the "Grim Reaper". With Saturn transits SOMETHING got to die. When Saturn comes back at 29 on the degree it was the day you're born it is the end of the teen age and time to really grow up. When he's back again at 58 - 59 it's the moment when people retired from their job - or pay the price for all their behaviour and mistakes in the previous 29 years ( Harvey Weinstein, Kevin Spacey ). But when you have a Saturn transit at 95 it's almost impossible to survive to it. And the reason why is not only the dozens of problems it brings but also because Saturn transits are incredibly exhausting. And i can confirm that it's true as I am currently in the same kind of bad Saturn transit - actually exactly this month and even this week - and i don't tell you how bad and exhausting it is - and i'm not 95!
All this to say that if you're a Capricorn native - Saturn it still in the sign for two more years - or have beloved ones born under the Capricorn sign, and especially if they are over, let's say, 78, make sure to stay close to them as the next years won't be fun for them, not to mention they could be eventually deadly.
