In what is likely the most tragic news to come out of this solar eclipse season, a popular astrologer, Danielle Johnson, allegedly went on a violent spiral that resulted in three fatalities - including her own death.
Danielle, 34, who went by Danielle Ayoka on social media, allegedly killed her partner 29-year-old Jaelen Allen Chaney by fatally stabbing him in their Los Angeles Home, before speeding away in her car with her two children - a nine-year-old, and a eight-month-old.
Danielle is then thought to have pushed them both from the car just hours before the 8 April eclipse. Tragically, this resulted in the death of her baby, but her nine-year-old daughter survived.
Danielle then crashed her car into a tree. She was pronounced dead at the scene.

The LAPD police report states that a ‘verbal altercation escalated into Johnson becoming violent, stabbing Chaney, who succumbed to his injuries at scene.’
It continued: “The dark-colored SUV was observed driving on the 405 Freeway when the two children were expelled from the vehicle while it was moving.
"The nine-year-old child sustained moderate injuries from the fall and was transported to a local hospital. The eight-month-old child sustained fatal injuries and was pronounced deceased at scene.

“Around 5:00 a.m., Johnson drove her vehicle at a speed in excess of 100 miles per hour in the city of Redondo Beach near the intersection of Vincent Street and the Pacific Coast Highway and collided with a tree. Johnson did not survive the crash and was the sole occupant of the vehicle.”
Danielle was an incredibly popular self-professed ‘astrologer and reiki master teacher’ on X, with over 100,000 followers.
She offered weekly aura cleanses, healing rituals and purifying cleanses on her website.
The Los Angeles Times reports that investigators 'believe that the eclipse may have been a factor in the killings because of some of the things Johnson wrote [on X] just days before'.

Her tweet from April 4 reads: “This eclipse is the epitome of spiritual warfare. Get your protection on and your heart in the right place.
"The world is very obviously changing right now and if you ever needed to pick a side, the time to do right in your life is now. Stay strong you got this.”
On April 5, she tweeted: “WAKE UP WAKE UP THE APOCALYPSE IS HERE. EVERYONE WHO HAS EARS LISTEN. YOUR TIME TO CHOOSE WHAT YOU BELIEVE IS NOW. IF YOU BELIEVE A NEW WORLD IS POSSIBLE FOR THE PEOPLE RT NOW.

"TURN NOTIFICATIONS ON.

"DO NOT LOOK AT THE ECLIPSE.
"SOMETHING BIG IS COMING …”
It has been reported that ‘tarot cards and black feathers’ were found at the scene of the crime in her home.
Danielle’s work was lauded by the media, with Refinery 29 writing that Johnson had ‘a brilliant gift for calling out the nonsense of any sun sign in need of real truths.’
The Fader labelled her 'a skilled healer who brings cosmic answers straight to your timeline'.
