The Virgin and the Crow
Last week, CNN’s Christiane Amanpour invited RT’s
Anissa Naouai to discuss what the US channel called ‘a heated propaganda war’
by the Russian government. But it never showed viewers Naouai’s criticism of
Amanpour’s own propaganda exercises. Naouai, host of RT’s In The
Now, was invited to speak along with Mikhail Kasyanov, a former Russian
prime minister and a fierce critic of President Vladimir Putin’s policies. RT

To
understand the astrology behind this interesting piece of news we will look at
the chart for the last lunar eclipse of October 8 at Moscow , Russia
Third
House Rulership
National rumours, propaganda. The press. All means
of disseminating news and information such as the post office, communication
networks, computers, telephones, faxes, newspapers, magazines, emails,
publications, literature, periodicals and television [1]
Martha
Wescott provides the following delineation for the elements of the chart.
HADES: Disgust/distaste; debilitation or
deterioration.
POSEIDON: ideological or moral stances; spread of
ideas; propaganda; ethics; the media.
KRONOS: Experts, leaders; those in authority (with
Venus..women)
PLUTO: Urge
for dominance; control needs; psychological power; emotional taffy in relationships;
compulsions; pushed to Authenticity; a person's "bottom line" (and
primitive defenses)
ZEUS: Restrained or creative fire/energy;
enthusiasm; controlled & directed forces (thus both planning and
controlling strong emotions;)
URANUS: Friends, friendship & group dynamics; sudden
or unusual; abrupt.
Kronos-Poseidon: A famous
or leading TV personality; awareness of
the ethics, business practices and morality of leaders, experts, famous people and those in positions of
authority.
Hades-Poseidon: Individuals
or the media can use propaganda (or their own
brand of Right) as a tool to misguide or as a means for slander.
Pluto-Uranus:
Unexpected reactions based on resentments, ultimatums or threats to control;
power struggles with friends or within groups.
Pluto-Zeus: To recognize psychological “triggers” – the way
that people and events can set off strong defences, control needs, buried
emotions and archetypes.
Progressing
the eclipse chart to Nov. 24, the date of the news, brings the Grand Cross to
the angles triggering the dynamics of the entire configuration.
Finally we
need to note that the Sun-Venus end of the Cross is conjunct Algorab, delta
Corvus, the Crow and stars of the Virgin.
Corvus is the Latin name for both the raven and the
crow and these two birds are usually paired together in mythology. From the
same family, their obvious intelligence and ingenuity, as well as their
distinctive caw, has given them a widespread association with trickery,
storytelling, the relaying of messages, and the serving of self-interest. But
the colour of their plumage has also drawn a universal connection with
malevolence, sinister forces, and ominous warnings. The stars of Corvus share
this reputation and the classical myths that relate to the constellation speak
of mistrust, shameful motives, insincerity, glorification in the misfortune of
others, and the bearing of bad news [2].
The Crow is a talking bird, and these are people in
love with gossip, tidings, what’s happening, what’s new, what’s up – many
journalists, newsmen and media people are born under these stars. Gutsy and
intellectually curious they often reach positions of power and influence but
weakness of character and poor judgement can cause them to become nasty,
destructive and even malevolent. The worst of them become greedy, scavenging
and exploiting opportunists. But also
here are the stars of the Virgin which longs for “truth” and “purity”. Both the
stars of the Crow and the Virgin are in
tropical Libra which seeks a sense of balance [3].
