Greeks are voting in a general election which could
result in Greece
trying to renegotiate the terms of its bailout with international lenders. The
leader of the left-wing Syriza party, Alexis Tsipras, has pledged to write off Greece 's huge
debt and revoke austerity measures. However, the current conservative prime
minister, Antonis Samaras, says the austerity measures are working. He has
urged voters not to take Greece
to the brink of catastrophe. Greece
has endured tough budget cuts in return for its bailout, negotiated with the
European Union, International Monetary Fund (IMF) and European Central Bank
(ECB). BBC; Jan. 25 http://www.bbc.com/news/world-europe-30971612
To
understand what is really at stake in this Greek election, I would like to go
back to the chart for the current sidereal Cancer Ingress of July 17, 2014 and
its progression to Jan.25. Notice that
the Sun is placed in the 8th house which is linked to “national debt
and financial relations with foreign countries” [1]. The Sun forms a hard
aspect to the Ascendant which is conjunct the star Antares about which Nick
Fiorenza writes [2]:
In classical astrology, Antares is the star of war
and weaponry, and with expounded meaning, to challenge the established opposing
politics (an arena common to the Antares / Aldebaran axis) with tenacious
adamancy. This is especially in regard to taking a stand against the
established conditions of our personal lives and against the established order
or authority directing our lives when those conditions or that authority are no
longer in our best interest nor supporting our evolutionary freedom and
fulfillment.
So we can
already begin to see that in connection with the national debt, the chart
supports action against the established order that no longer serves the
interest of the people. A further confirmation comes from the Sun’s conjunction
with the asteroid Amor and the TNP Vulkanus. Martha-Wescott gives us following
keyphrases and delineation.
AMOR: can
you/ should you set boundaries or limits on what happens in the name of love?
VULCANUS: feeling
forced to associate; compulsion.
Amor-Vulkanus
Events and reflections are apt to show you that
people really have to have boundaries;
they have to have an imaginary circle around themselves that only lets certain things come through,
that's only willing to have certain
things happen at its perimeter--and that remains in place even in very pressing circumstances (and in the
company of very forceful or persuasive
human beings.)
Just a day
before the ingress there was a phenomena called Moon Wobble which I discussed extensively
in a post [3] dated July 13, 2014. The following is a summary extract from that
post.
On July 16
at 11:22:52 UT, the Sun [23cn52] was square the Mean Node [23li52]. This is a
phenomena known as “Moon Wobble”. While it is exact on July 16, 2014 it may be
felt for approximately a week on either side.
Moon Wobbles were discovered in the 1930's, when
research by astrologer Carl Payne Tobey (1902-1980), the original editor of
Astrology Magazine, revealed that disasters occur in cycles associated with the
conjunction (0°), opposition (180°) and square (90°) from the Sun to the Moon's
Node. These powerful contacts occur when the Sun and the Node are in the same
sign, or the opposing sign, or when the Sun is in a square aspect to the nodal
axis.
During Moon Wobble the instability factor is high,
resulting in more accidents, fires, plane crashes, freak accidents, floods,
feats of nature, bizarre weather patterns, earthquakes, tornadoes, violence,
Terrorism, riots, and political and
personal upheavals. These
Cycles bring suppressed energies in people and Mother Nature to the surface,
erupting and disrupting.
Moon Wobbles
are potent archetypal gifts to identify experiential and existential tension. If
we have been working on ourselves then this is an opportunity for “spiritual
release” from patterns of behaviour that we have now outgrown.
I guess
there is enough here to tell us why the Greeks need a break from the EU. If we
now progress the chart to Jan.25, the date of the elections, we find that the
apex Sun of the Moon Wobble aligns with the horizon triggering a potential
change.
