Las Vegas was born on May 15, 1905, when railroad townsite lots were auctioned in what became downtown. The city itself still recognizes May 15 as its birthday. That gives Las Vegas 8 energy, Snake energy, and Taurus influence. The 8 is an unusually fitting imprint for a city that became globally associated with money, casinos, luxury, risk, and high stakes entertainment.
The Snake layer also gives us a powerful cautionary example. Tupac Shakur was a Pig, the Snake’s direct enemy sign. He was shot in Las Vegas on September 7, 1996, after attending the Tyson fight, and died six days later.
CUE: Las Vegas carries one of the clearest 8 signatures among major cities, built around money, risk, wealth, and material experience. But the Tupac example adds another layer to CUE astrology: a Pig entering a Snake city, his direct enemy energy, during the final days of his life. It is a striking reminder that enemy energy can sometimes show up through place as well as timing. In CUE terms, awareness of where your energy clashes may matter just as much as when it clashes.
