SuperMoon brings anti-govt protests in Pakistan



Protesters demanding the fall of the Pakistani government blockaded parliament and key ministries on Wednesday in the latest round of a week-long political drama that has shaken the restive nuclear-armed nation. Cricketer-turned-politician Imran Khan and populist cleric Tahir-ul-Qadri had on Tuesday led followers in a late-night march on the parliament building, the culmination of a week-long standoff with prime minister Nawaz Sharif. Khan and Qadri say last year's general election that swept Sharif to power by a landslide was rigged, and they are demanding his resignation.






So why are things suddenly becoming very “hot” in several parts of the world. In the US we saw protests in Missouri over the killing of a teenager by policemen [1]. Here, in this news, we see a sudden uprising in Pakistan. We don’t need to look very far for the astrological reasons. We are still in the wake of the August 10, SuperMoon which in Ferguson, Missouri fell sharply on the meridian. In Islamabad we see that it fell square the horizon axis with Saturn on the descendant.  Readers may like to go back to the post on the Missouri unrest since the stars discussed there are active in this case too.  For convenience I reproduce a small extract for the star Ruchbah which occupies the Ascendant in this case:


Ruchbah, Delta Cassiopeia, the knee of Queen Cassiopeia, is a star of  transformation —a process often occurring in a bit of initiatory fire. Ruchbah inspires transformation of our pride and arrogance—our attitudes. Our righteous attitudes keep us naive to, and thus entrapped in diversionary lower-order psychic forces that trip us up, perpetuate repetitive scenarios, and keep us from claiming our greater freedom and fulfillment in life. Ruchbah reveals that the attitudes we hold must die in order to have that which is truly ours.





Additionally, the chart for the Last Quarter Moon [August 17] at Islamabad, Pakistan shows a forming conjunction between Mars and Saturn on the MC activated by the Quarter Moon.  


This week Mars  began a conjunction with Saturn that is exact on August 25. Mars signifies self-assertion and taking a stand for one’s self. Saturn signifies authority and limitation. When they occupy the same position, the outcome tends toward conflict, especially as Mars attempts to move beyond the confines of Saturn’s authority.
