Five years after my death, my headless corpse was found inside chunks of concrete smashed against a highway overpass pier.
My wife, heir to a family of folk tradition practitioners, recognized at a glance that this was a foundation sacrifice.
A living person had been used as an offering to ensure the project went smoothly.
Once the corpse was found, the harm suffered by the deceased would rebound upon the perpetrators many times over.
To save the man she had always loved, my wife switched our birth charts.
She said, "No matter what, all I want is for Senior Brother to be safe!"
But she didn't know that I was already dead.
When a living person takes on a dead person's birth chart, it means their own death is near.
