The boss of Virgin Group, Sir Richard Branson, is
offering his personal staff as much holiday as they want. On his website, he
said that his staff of 170 could "take off whenever they want for as long
as they want". He added that there was no need to ask for approval, nor
say when they planned to return, the assumption being that the absence would
not damage the firm. BBC; Sept 24 http://www.bbc.com/news/business-29356627
To
understand this news we go back to the April 15 lunar eclipse at London
The Full
Moon conjoins the stars Spica and Archturus and the asteroids Vesta and Ceres.
VESTA:
Commitment to work; using work as a compensation; dedication to accomplishment
or goals; emotional distancing; hard work and career demands.
CERES: The
need for nurturing including self-nurturance.
The
combination is therefore asking us not to be so carried away with hard work and
career demands that we fail to take care of ourselves.
In his
commentary on the Lunar Eclipse, Nick Fiorenza wrote:
The new Earth-Vesta and Earth Ceres synodic cycles
impel us to get very clear about what is essential to ensure our safe and
harmonious evolutionary experience and fulfillment on Earth, and to ensure
souls birthing into this experience in the future will also have this
opportunity. The quality of our environment and of our biological condition
must become a priority over amassing power and resources to dominate and
control life based upon personal motive. Our very values must change to become
focused and dedicated to ensure this quality rather than to unconsciously
consume the very quality of life to amass quantity. If we do not have
quality in our world and in our lives, how much we have, even life itself,
becomes meaningless.
So what is it
that triggered this eclipse now? First, Mercury transit over the eclipse Moon
in the last few days. Second, the Wynn Key Return progressed Ascendant [25cn]
squares the eclipse axis and is conjunct Richard Branson’s radix Sun [25cn]. He
was born July 18, 1950. And his current
solar return chart carries a Sun [25cn] square Ceres-Vesta [25li].
As we have
seen so often before, accompanying the eclipse or ingress “hour hand” there is
usually a “minute hand” which can be a lunation phase or even a transiting
aspect that resonates with the message of the “hour hand”. On September 22, just two days before the news
story there was a transiting Mars-Neptune square which was placed precisely on
the horizon axis at London
The
elements in the Mars square Neptune chart are
delineated as below [2][3].
Vesta-Neptune
Ones’s work may be violating their sensitivities or need for recuperation.
Mars-Neptune
Dissipation (Neptune )
of a person's physical energy (Mars) .
Need for rest or vacation (Neptune ) from work
(Mars).
Hades-Saturn
Work requires tedium (or just feels like a drag, a chore and a downer,). And do expect
times when you see that people just don't feel like working... there can also be periods when
ambitions can be at a low ebb.
Kronos-Neptune
Idealistic leadership; leaders who are sensitive or
compassionate; rules or laws are not enforced.
