Astrology of the Spanish train accident




A train has derailed in north-western Spain, killing at least 77 of its 218 passengers and injuring more than 100, officials in the Galicia region say. All eight carriages of the Madrid to Ferrol train came off the tracks near the city of Santiago de CompostelaMedia reports say the train may have been travelling at more than twice the speed limit around a curve. Officials have not commented on the cause. Analysts say it is the worst train accident in Spain in 40 years.





As in several earlier posts we will once again see here  how an eclipse that has probably been forgotten is taking its toll. Notice the chart for the  lunar eclipse of 28 Nov 2012 is strongly placed at the accident site. An eclipse that places violent planetary configurations on the angles is definitely one to watch out for. Notice the violent Mars-Pluto-Uranus square on the meridian axis. Mars-Uranus combination are well known for accidents due to carelessness or overspeeding [1,2]. Mars-Pluto also aspect the eclipse moon in Gemini –  again known for transportation related accidents [3].






Progressing the chart to 24 Jul, the date of the accident brings Mars-Pluto  precisely to the Ascendant triggering the event.

Finally, the “fine print”  or microscopic picture provided by the asteroids confirms the “big picture” . The IC [5ta29]  of the progressed chart conjoins asteroids  Phaethon [0ta09] and Lacrimosa [15ta35].

Phaethon/Lacrimosa
                                    
to hear of losses of life in connection with cars or  other modes of transportation. [4]

P.S.

Railway firm Renfe said the train came off the tracks on a bend about 3 or 4km (2-2.5 miles) from Santiago de Compostela station at 20:41 local time (18:41 GMT).

A chart drawn for the exact time of the crash (18:41 GMT)  shows Uranus-Pluto square straddling the horizon axis with Saturn on MC.  Mercury-Mars conjunction associated with transportation accidents is on the descendant along with the asteroid Lacrimosa  [16cn] ( grief and deaths). On the Ascendant is the asteroid Icarus [12cp]  while on the descendant is  the asteroid Phaethon. [1cn]


ICARUS: Escapes that are careless of consequences; desire to get outta' here; the fast break impulse; attraction to speed, danger or risk; desire to get away from restrictions (of aspecting points).

PHAETHON: Instances that involve cars, transport, driving; other forms of recklessness-feeling out of control-as though you’ve taken on more than you can handle; having trouble keeping to the middle of the road!
