Pope Francis sharply criticises Vatican bureaucracy

Pope Francis has sharply criticised the Vatican bureaucracy in a pre-Christmas address to cardinals, complaining of "spiritual Alzheimer's" and "the terrorism of gossip". He said the Curia - the administrative pinnacle of the Roman Catholic Church - was suffering from 15 "ailments", which he wanted cured in the New Year. Pope Francis - the first Latin American pontiff - also criticised "those who look obsessively at their own image". He has demanded reform of the Curia. There was silence at the end of the Pope's speech. Before his election in March 2013, the pontiff encountered internal opposition to some of the reforms he wants to carry out. He has set up a series of specialist bodies to fight corruption and poor management, appointing a team of advisers. Dec.22 BBC http://www.bbc.com/news/world-europe-30577368






The lunar eclipse of October 8 at Vatican can help us understand the Pope’s message. Eclipses tend to bring about endings and new beginnings. The principal star conjunct the Moon is Alpheratz  where the chained Princess Andromeda is freed from captivity. Also influencing this area is the star Alderamin. Readers who are unaware of the story of the Royal Family can read it here [1].


Nick Fiorenza explains the dynamics of these stars as under [2]:

Cetus the Sea Monster is the techno-bureaucratic monster of collective human consciousness sent by Poseidon to devour Princess Andromeda; it represents  the human genetic condition spiraled downward into a raging, fear instilling, consuming beast--diverting us from our evolutionary path to Light.

Alderamin, the Alpha star of Cepheus, is the right shoulder of King Cepheus, father of the Royal Family and Princess Andromeda, often portraying one in an authoritative position. Alderamin imparts a quality of authoritative responsibility. With afflicted alignments, Alderamin can expresses as denial, avoidance, or turning one's head from dealing with the manipulative power plays causing our or other people's entrapment with a flippant attitude to do anything about them. Here we can live in submission to manipulative forces rather than to stand up for self and for those unjustly held in bondage, even when it is our responsibility to do so. With empowered alignments, Alderamin impels impartial and emotionally clearheaded authoritarian action to address entrapping situations in a way that provides resolution.

Alignments with Alpheratz can also express as being caught in the power plays created by the arrogance or denials of others. The stars of Andromeda articulate the struggle for freedom from the collective and tormenting forces of the psycho-emotional human world, to claim our true galactic birthright and evolutionary destiny. Alpheratz's fortuitous position ultimately brings success and reward in this worthy pursuit.





Progressing the eclipse chart to December 22, the date of the news, brings the Grand Cross to an alignment with the meridian axis once again giving us an event in which the dynamics discussed above is symbolically contained.

In the context of the news, the relevance of  the story of the  Royal Family is fairly self-evident.  The Vatican bureaucracy is the techno-bureaucratic monster Cetus about to devour  Andromeda, a symbol of the teeming mass of believers. Alderamin, of course represents those in authority, like the Popes so far who have turned their face away in denial. But as Nick Fiorenza’s commentary adds eventually Alderamin comes to the aid of Andromeda which is exactly what Pope Francis is doing!

A further confirmation of our analysis comes from Pope Francis’ current solar return chart. The Pope was born on December 17, 1936; 21:00 hrs; Buenos Aires, Argentina [3]. He has just celebrated 78th birthday. His current preccesion corrected solar chart is shown here. Notice the Kronos-Hades-Uranus-Pluto on the angles. The combination refers to corruption in high places (Kronos-Hades-Pluto) and the need for reform (Uranus-Pluto).
