Protestors began rioting in Baltimore, the largest city in the American state of Maryland, starting April 27, 2015, in reaction to the April 19 death of Freddie Gray. Gray, a 25-year-old African-American resident of the city, died in police custody a week after being arrested. Apparently in good health at the time of his arrest, Gray later sustained injuries to his spine and larynx. The cause and circumstances of his injuries have not been officially determined. Gray fell into a coma on April 12, and despite multiple surgical attempts, he never regained consciousness and died a week later. Six police officers have been suspended pending an investigation. Peaceful protests were organized after his death, and apparently spontaneous protests started after the funeral service, although they eventually became marred with civil unrest and violence. As of April 28, at least twenty police officers have been injured, at least 250 people have been arrested, thousands of police and National

(CILICAP, Indonesia) — Ambulances carrying coffins arrived Tuesday at a prison island and relatives paid final visits to their condemned loved ones in a sign that Indonesia will imminently execute eight foreigners and one Indonesian man, despite an international outcry and pleas for mercy.  Among the condemned are two Australians — Myuran Sukumaran, 33, and Andrew Chan, 31 — whose emotional families made what could be their last visit to Besi prison on Nusakambangan island, where the prisoners are scheduled to die. Sukumaran’s sister, Brintha, wailed in agony and had to be carried through a crowd of media waiting at the ferry port to the island.

The state of New York is to turn off non-essential lights in state-run buildings to help birds navigate their migratory routes in spring and autumn. Migrating birds are believed to use stars to navigate but they can be disorientated by electric lights, causing them to crash into buildings. The phenomenon, known as "fatal light attraction", is estimated to kill up to one billion birds a year in the US. Millions of birds migrate through New York along the Atlantic Flyway route. Now those passing over the city by night will stand a better chance of making it further north. New York Governor Andrew Cuomo said on Monday that bright outdoor lights will be turned off between 23:00 and dawn during peak migration seasons in spring and autumn.

The Little Bear Two persons were allegedly attacked by bears in the foothills of Poigai Malai in Aralvoimozhi on Thursday morning. S. Seelan (34) and his brother S. Jegan (32) were on a visit to their agricultural land along with their father Selvaraj when they noticed the bears in close proximity. Even as they tried to run to safety, Seelan sustained injuries in the attack by the bears and Jegan escaped with minor injuries. Their father escaped unhurt. April 17. http://www.thehindu.com/news/national/tamil-nadu/two-injured-in-bear-attack/article7111887.ece Shown here is the chart for the lunar eclipse of April 4 drawn for Aralvoimozhi. This powerful lunar eclipse aligned with the Uranus-Pluto square wrecked havoc in the form of an earthquake in Nepal and northern India. It is also significant here since it is placed in the angles. Richard Tarnas associates Uranus-Pluto with “the unleashing of the elemental forces of nature in various senses”. These

Massive tremors that lasted between 30 seconds and nearly a couple of minutes were felt throughout North India after a huge 7.5 magnitude earthquake in Nepal. In Delhi and parts of the National Capital Region, people were seen running out of their houses after buildings shook for well over a minute. There are reports of tremors from Patna, Lucknow, Kolkata, Jaipur, Chandigarh and other cities. "Epicenter was 83 kilometres North West of Kathmandu, Nepal, measured 7.4 on Richter scale," said European Mediterranean Seismological Center. http://www.ndtv.com/india-news/massive-tremors-felt-in-delhi-other-parts-of-north-india-758050 Earthquakes are found to be associated with eclipses and with important planetary conjunctions and oppositions. An eclipse is always liable to cause seismic disturbances especially if it falls very close to the line of the horizon or of the meridian. The probability of earthquakes is much increased if at the time of eclipse, there is a close con

Actor Sawyer Sweeten, known for his role in US sitcom Everybody Loves Raymond , has taken his own life, according to a statement released by his manager. He was 19. “This morning a terrible family tragedy has occurred,” the family said in a statement, published on the Hollywood Reporter. “We are devastated to report that our beloved brother, son, and friend, Sawyer Sweeten, took his own life. He was weeks away from his 20th birthday. At this sensitive time, our family requests privacy and we beg of you to reach out to the ones you love.” April 24 http://bit.ly/1JDLUJq A chart for the lunar eclipse of April 4 drawn for Brownwood, Texas is shown here. The eclipse luminaries are placed significantly on the horizon axis and part of the Uranus-Pluto square which among other things is associated with a breakdown. So what is the nature of the breakdown? The medical asteroid Askalaphus [14li] is conjunct the Moon [14li] and opposite the asteroid Psyche[14ar]. The combinat

An exhaustive report published Thursday in The New York Times links undisclosed contributions to the Clinton Foundation by investors linked to Russian uranium interests, potentially complicating former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton's presidential campaign. According to the report, a deal spearheaded by leaders of the Canadian mining industry gave the Russian government control of one-fifth of the uranium production capacity in the US.  April 23 http://bit.ly/1aYsR10 Hillary Diane Rodham was born on 26 October 1947 at 08:02 (= 08:02 AM ) at  Chicago, Illinois [1].

The elements of the Grand Cross are interpreted by Martha Wescott as below: Hades-Kronos : the humiliation of leaders; secret activities of a leader or prominent person. Hades-Pluto-Kronos : to hear of criminal financial dealings in high places. [1

Relatives of veterans who fought in Gallipoli - one of World War One's bloodiest campaigns - have met the Prince of Wales to mark its centenary. Prince Charles and Prince Harry met the relatives on HMS Bulwark, ahead of services on the Turkish peninsula. Leaders from Australia, New Zealand and Turkey - which all lost thousands of troops - will also attend memorials. The Gallipoli Campaign, also known as the Dardanelles Campaign, the Battle of Gallipoli or the Battle of Çanakkale (Turkish: Çanakkale Savaşı) was a campaign of World War I that took place on the Gallipoli peninsula (Gelibolu in modern Turkey) in the Ottoman Empire between 25 April 1915 and 9 January 1916. The peninsula forms the northern bank of the Dardanelles, a strait that provided a sea route to the Russian Empire, one of the Allied powers during the war. Intending to secure it, Russia's allies Britain and France launched a naval attack followed by an amphibious landing on the peninsula, with the aim of

A farmer in Kenya says one of his cows has given up its usual vegetarian diet and started eating sheep. Charles Mamboleo, who runs a farm in south-western Nakuru County, discovered the cow feeding on a sheep one morning, having apparently gored it to death, the Daily Nation website reports. Fresh food and water couldn't tempt the cow, and another sheep met its end the following day, the report says. "After the first incident, we thought the cow was starving, so we increased the supply of fodder and water, but it still continued chasing after sheep," says Mr Mamboleo. While cows are herbivores, developing a taste for meat could be a sign of a nutrient deficiency, according to a local agricultural officer. "The dry season, which has just ended, has seen most animals lack minerals found in green grass," Albert Kabugi tells the site.

A volcano in Chile that has laid dormant for more than 40 years has suddenly erupted, causing a thick plume of ash to cloud the sky while thousands of people living in its shadow were forced to flee. Volcano Calbuco, in the country's south, is believed to be among the three most dangerous of Chile's 90 active volcanoes, but was not under any special observation before it suddenly sprung into life at around 6pm local time. An estimated 1,500 people were forced to flee the nearby town of Ensenada after the eruption, while several smaller townships were also cleared. April 23 http://dailym.ai/1K9enbb An eclipse is always liable to cause volcanic eruptions and seismic disturbances especially where planets on the angles conjoin certain stars. A chart for the last solar eclipse at Calbuco is shown here. The Ascendant in Pisces is conjunct Mercury and Neptune while Saturn conjoins the MC.  Neptune [8pi] is conjunct kappa Pegasi [9pi] in the Flying Horse’s forefoot.

In July of 2012, the mother of 21-year old Dustin Bergsing filed a wrongful-death suit in Yellowstone County District Court. Bergsing died on January 7 of that year — his first child was born just six weeks prior. The cause of death was hydrocarbon poisoning. More specifically, Bergsing died from inhaling fatal amounts of petroleum vapors after gauging a crude oil tank on a Marathon Oil site in Mandaree, North Dakota. April 22 http://www.zerohedge.com/news/2015-04-22/why-are-oil-gas-workers-mysteriously-dying-across-america So why are oil & gas workers mysteriously dying across America? A total solar eclipse like the one that took place on March 20 is so powerful that it can help us understand events like the one reported here. A chart for the eclipse at Washington, DC has Saturn on the MC square Neptune. This is a combination that refers, among other things, to the oil and gas (Neptune) industry (Saturn). In addition, Saturn [4sa] is conjunct sigma

Cetus – the Sea Monster A Greek minister has said the "great powers" of Europe need to take more responsibility for the unfolding crisis in the Mediterranean Sea. Deputy Defence Minister Kostas Isichos told the BBC northern Europe must do more to rescue and shelter migrants. He said that Greece, Italy and Spain were working on a common position ahead of an emergency EU summit on Thursday. April 22, 2015 http://www.bbc.com/news/world-europe-32409151  Cardinal Ingresses of the Sun are important mundane events. Of these the Ingress of the Sun into Capricorn is considered by many to be the most important and has been elevated to the position of an Annual Chart. Shown here is sidereal Capricorn Ingress at Athens, Greece. On the Ascendant [15ta] of the chart is the star Menkar, alpha Cetus in the crushing jaws of the Sea-Monster. The news comes to us on the very day Mercury conjoins Mars at [16ta] on the Ascendant of the Ingress chart.  Diana Rosenberg link

An epidemic of loneliness is killing millions of American men. Here's why. On a cold February night a few weeks ago, Professor and researcher Niobe Way presented findings from her book Deep Secrets here in New York. (Her book is available on Amazon.) She was hosted by Partnership With Children, a groundbreaking organization doing powerful interventions with at risk children in the New York's Public Schools. Both Way and Partnership With Children's work have produced reams of hard statistical data proving that emotional support directly impacts every metric of academic performance. And, as it turns out, every other part of our lives as well. That night, as my wife Saliha and I made our way down the snow-blown streets towards Fifth Avenue, I was feeling the somber weight of the third month of dark Northeast winter, wondering how many days remained until Spring would come. "It's February. Don't kid yourself," the answer came back. My charming and lovely w

Saturn as Father Time A clock based on a design from 300 years ago has stunned experts by keeping accurate to a second for 100 days. The modern-day Martin Burgess Clock B is based on John Harrison's 18th century clock, which he thought up to solve the problem of determining longitude at sea. It has been part of a 100-day trial at the Royal Observatory, in Greenwich, to see if the claim - that the clock would neither lose nor gain more than a second in 100 days - was true. April 19; http://dailym.ai/1D45ucV The cardinal ingresses of the Sun are considered important in mundane astrology and can be usefully employed to predict events especially in the quarter that they rule. A chart for the Sun’s entry into sidereal Aries on April 15 drawn for Greenwich is shown here. Notice that the Uranus-Pluto-Saturn combination aspects the meridian. To understand this news we first need to combine the influence of Uranus-Pluto acting on Saturn.  About Uranus-Pluto

Depression has been described as a modern epidemic. An army of highly trained theoreticians have postulated all sorts of approaches and created a vast enterprise pushing pills to cure this disease of our modern, so-called 'civilized', society. This is not going to be a discussion of psychology and trite self-help materials from ignorant people whimsically pontificating from their ivory towers. Today, we're going to go down into the trenches to cut through all of the BS and investigate the incidence and role of depression from an existential, non-materialist perspective. In doing so, we might just discover the 'meaning of life'. How and why do relatively well-adjusted people with normal lives come to carry this monster inside of them, this feeling of a shattered soul that refuses to be cured with drugs or the latest counseling theories? I think the answer to that question is that the being of such people has, at some level of awareness, been forced to r
