Alphard Full Moon and gas attack in Syria

Syrian activists claim that government forces have carried out a “poisonous gas” attack in suburbs of the capital, Damascus, leaving hundreds of people dead. Activists said regime forces fired “rockets with poisonous gas heads” in the alleged attack early on Wednesday (21^st Aug).

Shown above is the chart for the Full Moon  at Damascus which took place on the same day as the gas attack. The Sun [28le11] is conjunct the star Alphard, alpha Hydra, Snake’s heart. It is reported by the Radio Free Syria that the attack took place at 5 am. The chart for the moment also has the Sun [28le] just rising conjunct the star Alphard. http://bit.ly/1777NMe

 Particularly matters connected with 'poison' are accentuated badly, e.g. blood poisoning, murder by poison, attempts of poisoning, poisoned hatred in women, gas poisoning…[Fixed Stars and Their Interpretation, Elsbeth Ebertin, 1928, p.50, under the name Alphard.]

On the Ascendant [11le28] of the chart is Gianfar, lambda Draco [10le31] – another star linked to poisons.

According to Ptolemy …danger of  accidental poisoning. It was said by the Ancients that when a comet was here poison was scattered over the world. By the Kabalists it is associated with the Hebrew letter Mem and the 13th Tarot Trump "Death." [Fixed Stars and Constellations in Astrology, Vivian E. Robson, 1923, p.43].
