Episode 45 - Joseph Metheny (Pisces) — True Crime Trine Podcast

We issued our first TCT Beer Money Challenge on this episode. Meredith is sure that we have talked about Joe Metheny already on this podcast, possible on the episode where we also talked about Jamie Kennedy’s guest role on Criminal Minds. Sarah and Hannah have absolutely no memory of this, but if you do, dear listener, send us an email (truecrimetrine@gmail.com) and let us know what episode it was.

We travel to Baltimore, Maryland, for the story of Joe “The Cannibal” Metheny. Joe was a big dude, a narcissist, a “nice guy,” and a serial murderer who liked to talk about his crimes. You will hear some pretty disturbing details from his confession which may make you second guess stopping at a roadside BBQ stand.

Joe was a Pisces Sun and Gemini Moon, a perfect combination to produce the “dual personalities” that Gemini’s are known for. It’s less talked about but Pisces can also feel like they have two sides; the Pisces symbols shows two fish trying to swim in opposite directions. Joe exemplified this duality. Everyone who knew him before his crimes came to light thought that he was a great, polite guy, while he was able to keep his dark and monstrous side hidden.

For this week’s astrology, on Wednesday, February 23, Mars in Capricorn is sextile to Neptune in Pisces. Hearing “Mars in Capricorn” probably doesn’t make your mind jump to “sexiness,” but this aspect is actually sensual. Look for pleasure in all aspects of your life.

On Thursday, February 24, we have two astrological events. First, Venus in Capricorn is sextile to Neptune in Pisces. The Pisces will bring some dreaminess but the Capricorn will bring that “can-do-it” attitude to help you manifest your dreams. Second, Mercury in Aquarius will be square to Uranus in Taurus. As usual, this square brings some tension. This particular aspect creates a paranoid and suspicious energy, which can lead to overthinking. You may need to just turn off your brain and go with your gut.

Food Pairing: Don’t let this episode ruin BBQ for you, just maybe go to a restuarant rather than a roadside stand. Or go to Arby’s - they have the meats!
