Eclipse brings wildfires to Los Angeles

Los Angeles (CNN) -- The strong winds that fueled a raging wildfire in the Los Angeles-area are expected to die down some Saturday, a welcome change for the army of firefighters battling the blaze. The fire, which began Thursday morning, has damaged 15 homes,15 outbuildings and five commercial properties while torching 28,000 acres in the Ventura County area, fire authorities said. "Onshore winds have begun to diminish this evening allowing for the expiration of all red flag warnings," the National Weather Service said late Friday.The winds gusted to 45 mph the past two days, fueling the roaring flames.

Shown above is the map for the Lunar Eclipse of April 25, at Los Angeles, CA. Notice the eclipse along with  the Mars-Saturn opposition straddles the meridian axis making it one place where its message would be clearly seen and heard. While Mars-Saturn opposition on its own is connected with ‘fire accidents’ [1] we will see in this post how the stars “conspired” to create the massive fire. I like to think of the stars as  far away electric power stations beaming their energy to earth. The planets act more like local electric substations that step down the high voltage and zap us with the energy .

The MC [7ta22] of the eclipse chart along with  Mars [4ta00] , the Sun [5ta46] is conjunct Al Sharratain [4ta08] which was said to produce ‘whirlwinds’  and  Alphirk, beta Cepheus [5ta43]. Cepheus was called “inflammatus”. There are devastating fires recorded here – among them the Great Fire of Rome, 64 CE, the Charleston SC fire of 1838 that destroyed more than half the city, the 1865 boiler explosion – fire that wrecked the Sultana, an old over loaded Mississippi River paddle-wheeler carrying Union soldiers, the October 1993 fires fanned by Santa Ana winds that devastated Southern California, the 1999 Mont Blanc tunnel disaster  when a fire trapped 32 vehicles, the huge 1842 Hamburg, Germany fire, the Lake View School fire in Collingwood,Ohio, 1908 when 172 children and 2 teachers died; the infamous Ring Theatre fire in Vienna, 1881 where 850 people died; the L’Innovation Department store fire in Brussels, 1967 that killed 322, the Halloween disco fire in Goteborg, Sweden in 1998 and many others [2].

So why did this happen on May 2. The answer lies  in the Last Quarter Moon chart for LA.  The Quarter Moon aligns once again with Mars-Saturn but more significantly notice that the star psi Phoenicis in Phoenix, [1the Firebird is on the Ascendant [1ar16]. On the descendant is Yi, in the Wing of China’s great Red Bird that governed the element of fire;  which the colour red symbolizes  but the bird symbolises high winds too! These stars were represented  at a 50 BCE Solar Eclipse (path through Egypt) before invading Romans set the Egyptian fleet afire, at the 1871 Chicago Il and Peshtigo, WI fires on the same night that killed 1432; at the start of Vienna’s Ring Theatre of Fire of 1881 (850 killed, hundreds injured); in 1943 when a hurricane force firestorm ravaged Hamburg after incendiaries were dropped by US aircraft and several others [3]
