Cassiopeia and the Australia gold nugget find


Australian amateur prospector finds massive gold nugget. An amateur prospector in the Australian state of Victoria has astonished experts by unearthing a gold nugget weighing 5.5kg (177 ounces).The unidentified man, using a handheld metal detector, found the nugget on Wednesday, lying 60cm underground near the town of Ballarat. Its value has been estimated at more than A$300,000 ($315,000: £197,000).


The horoscope for the entry of the Sun into Capricorn  [also called ‘Capingress’] is considered  by several astrologers as the most important chart for the entire year. Shown above is the Capingress at Ballarat where this unusual discovery took place.

Notice the following:

A sharp Yod configuration  with Jupiter[8ge] at the apex forming quincunx aspects to Saturn [8sc] and Pluto [8cp]. Venus at [6sg] is opposite Jupiter. At Ballarat , the Yod is anchored to the Ascendant [22cn44].  Saturn [8sc]  at the IC is opposite Alpha (α) Cassiopeia, Schedir [8ta] while the MC is conjunct Gamma (γ) Cassiopeia, Cih, on the Ethiopian Queen's chair.

“From Cassiope come the gifts of Augustus which gleam in the temples he consecrated, where the blaze of gold rivals the sun's brightness and the fires of gems flash forth light out of shadow. What products would a grand lady like Cassiope prefer her sons to handle rather than those she could turn to her own employments? And that material for such employment should not be lacking, she bids men look for gold beneath the ground, uproot all which nature stealthily conceals, and turn earth upside down in search of gain; she bids them detect the treasure in lumps of ore and finally, for all its reluctance, expose it to a sky it has never seen. Such are the inclinations which Cassiope will fashion in those born under her" [Manilius, Astronomica, book 5, 1st century AD, p.343.]

A Yod when activated provides a turning point. With Jupiter at the apex and Venus opposite,  the turning point can come as a dose of good luck.




As can be seen from the progressed Capingress chart, the Yod was activated just a couple of days before  Jan 17, 2013, when the progressed meridian reached the conjunction to the Jupiter-Venus combination. Venus at [6sg41] was square the star Gamma (γ) Aquarius, Sadalachbia, [6pi54]. Sadachbia, from Al Sa'd al Ahbiyah (now called Sadalachbia) has been interpreted as the Lucky Star of Hidden Things. It indicates the ability to discover that which is hidden or lost.
