The Apollo of Gaza: Ancient Bronze Statue





A statue thought to be an ancient bronze of Apollo, Greek God of poetry and love, has dropped off the radar after being found in the sea off Gaza last summer [16 Aug 2013] and surfacing briefly on eBay. It is 2,500 years old and priceless. [1][2]




Modern astrology having lost its moorings with the Fixed Stars has also lost its ability to decipher the reason for such events as mentioned above reported in the BBC on 21 Feb, 2013 just two days before a Sun-Neptune conjunction at 5 Pisces. The statue was found  on 16 August under a First Quarter Moon phase which had Neptune [4pi] square the horizon axis at Gaza. On the IC [9pi]  of the chart is Gamma (γ) Aquarius, Sadalachbia[7pi] and Neptune [4pi] conjunct Alpha (α) Piscis Austrinus,  Fomalhaut [4pi]. The astrological influences of these stars given by authorities  says it all.

Sadalachbia [3]
"The Lucky Star of Hidden Things". In horary it indicates the ability to discover that which is hidden or lost. [The Living Stars, Dr. Eric Morse, p.111.]

Fomalhaut [4]
"When the Southern Fish rises into the heavens, leaving its native waters for a foreign element, whoever at this hour takes hold of life will spend his years about sea-shore and river-bank he will capture fish as they swim poised in the hidden depths; he will cast his greedy eyes into the midst of the waters, craving to gather pellucid stones (pearls) and, immersed himself, will bring them forth together with the homes of protective shell wherein they lurk. No peril is left for man to brave, profit is sought by means of shipwreck, and the diver who has plunged into the depths becomes, like the booty, the object of recovery. And not always small is the gain to be derived from this dangerous labor (implying that a diver's life was usually an unenviable one) pearls are worth fortunes, and because of these splendid stones there is scarcely a rich man left. Dwellers on land are burdened with the treasures of the sea. A man born to such a lot plies his skill along the shore; or he purchases at a fixed wage another's labor and sells for a profit what it has brought him, a pedlar in the many different forms of sea products". [Manilius, Astronomica, 1st century AD, book 5, p.333.]
