Officials in Afghanistan
have said that at least 2,000 people are feared dead after a mountainside
collapsed in the north-east Afghan province of Badakhshan causing a massive landslide
in a remote region of the country. The landslide is believed to have been
triggered by heavy rain which has swept the region for several days. Landslide
and avalanches are common in the province but are rarely so deadly.
In mundane
astrology the chart for the most recent cardinal ingress of the Sun is analysed
for understanding the nature of events in the quarter that follows. Shown here is the current sidereal Aries
ingress of the Sun at Feyzabad, the city closest to area where the landslide occurred. The
planets align in a powerful configuration—an angular Cardinal Grand Cross—that contains
the Uranus-Pluto square. Richard Tarnas associates Uranus-Pluto with “the
unleashing of the elemental forces of nature in various senses (the tangible
increase in signs of extreme climate change, volcanoes and earthquakes,
tornadoes and hurricanes, tsunamis and floods, undersea oil eruptions, mining
disasters).” On the descendant [29vi52] of the chart is the star Benetnash [27vi09].
In an important position in a mundane map,
Benetnash will claim human lives in calamities such as mine accidents, collapse
of houses and bridges, mountain slides, earth tremors and catastrophes caused
by weather. [Fixed Stars and Their Interpretation, Elsbeth Ebertin, 1928,
no.46, p.57, under the name Benetnash]
Progressing
the ingress chart by the solar quotidian method aligns the Grand Cross with the
merdian axis on Friday, May 2, the day of the event confirming the analysis.
