False widow spider bite 'led to finger amputation'


Coma Berenices

Berenice's Hair






A woman  (a hairdresser) has had a finger amputated - and told she was within hours of death - after being bitten by a false widow spider. Andrea Wallace, from Seaham, County Durham, was bitten in a Sunderland park and described the result as "like something out of a horror movie". The attack left her with flesh-eating bug necrotising fasciitis, which required 10 weeks in hospital. False widows are the UK's most venomous spider but extreme reactions are rare.

As so often in previous posts, here too we will see how a forgotten eclipse continues to create events perfectly in line with its stars. Shown here is the chart for the last solar eclipse of April 29 at Seaham. The eclipse [8ta52] is square the meridian axis. On the IC [6le58] we have Praesepe, M44 Cancri, “The Beehive” - a nebulous cluster in the Crab’s shell that Diana Rosenberg links to “animal and insect attacks”. [1]

The eclipse itself is conjunct Al Kaff al Jidhmah, gamma Cetus [9ta38].

Kaffeljidhma, Al Kaff al Jidhmah or Al-Kaff al-Jadhma' , "The cut-short hand", (reaching from the Pleiades) is the Arabs' name for the whole group marking the Whale's head, but in modern lists is exclusively applied to this star. Those in the head are; alpha (Menkar), gamma (Kaffaljidhma), delta, lambda, mu, xi ¹and xi2, were Al Kaff al Jidhmah, "the Part of a Hand", from a fancied resemblance to their "Stained Hand", our Cassiopeia.

The progressed Ascendant [7li], the Sun[9ta] and Neptune [7pi] form a temporary Yod – a combination known to create sudden “fated” events. Neptune is also conjunct the star Situala, kappa Aquari [9pi]  in the hand of the ancient goddess Gula. Once again Diana Rosenberg links stars in this area to “venomous insect stings”  [4]. The progressed Ascendant [7li] is also conjunct the star Diadem, alpha Coma Berenice [9li]. In addition, the current New Moon [1li08] which  fell on the Ascendant [3li] at Seaham is  conjunct the Coma Cluster in Berenice’s Hair.[5] The Daily Mail [6] reports that Ms Andrea Wallace, the victim, is a hairdresser!
