John D. Rockefeller built a vast fortune on oil.
Now his heirs are abandoning fossil fuels. The family whose legendary wealth
flowed from Standard Oil is planning to announce on Monday that its $860
million philanthropic organization, the Rockefeller Brothers Fund, is joining
the divestment movement that began a couple years ago on college campuses. The
announcement, timed to precede Tuesday’s opening of the United Nations climate
change summit meeting in New York City
John
Davison Rockefeller, Sr. (July 8, 1839 – May 23, 1937) was an American business
magnate and philanthropist. The world’s first monopoly over a strategic
resource was John D. Rockefeller’s Standard Oil, and it made him and all his
heirs billionaires. The commercial development of oil remains in the hands of a
few multinational corporations, and their dominance determines our collective
political realities.
Since the
Rockefeller family business started with John Sr., his horoscope [1] should reflect
the changes being made in his business. His horoscope has radix Sun [16cn] at
the apex of a T-square with Jupiter [10li] and Pluto [19ar].
In her book
“Aspects in Astrology”, Sue Tompkins
describes the Jupiter-Pluto
aspect thus:
For individuals with this combination prominently
placed in their charts, there is usually a life-theme around what may be
described as the ‘wealth of buried matter’. The wealth can take different
forms: sometimes a very physical form, as in the charts of those whose work
involves mining of various types of ore, coal, oil or other minerals.
The current
Uranus-Pluto square is
hitting Rockefeller’s T-square. Ebertin’s key phrases for Uranus-Pluto are:
The process of transformation. The collapse of the
old order of things, the construction of the new.
Transit
Pluto has stationed direct on September 23, 2014 at 11cp on the MC of the chart
and will move to complete a Grand Cross with the radix T-square. Jupiter [10li]
at the leading edge of T-square is the first to be hit by transit Pluto.
Steven
Forrest’s comment on Jupiter-Pluto
applies here:
Under hard aspects between Pluto and Jupiter, faith
is embattled. Perhaps someone has gone down a road for the wrong reasons. Under
hard aspects illusions are challenged. The trick lies in realising that your
life as you are living it is inadequate to meet your spiritual and emotional
needs, and that half the reason that’s true is that you have believed far too
many lies all your life. The other half of the reason is that you’ve grown
and changed, and what used to be satisfying and believable is now barren and
false. Comforting but phony elements of life must be released and new
possibilities seized under less than auspicious circumstances.
