300 year old clock design stuns experts



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.

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 Tarnas writes:

With Pluto acting on Uranus, we can see what could be called the intensification on a massive scale (Pluto) of technology (Uranus) or the empowerment (Pluto) of revolutionary breakthroughs (Uranus) and awakenings”. 

If Uranus-Pluto is about technological and scientific breakthroughs and Saturn or Chronos is Father Time [1], we can expect at least one breakthrough to be connected with measuring time. But remember that Saturn is retrograde and retrogression is often a reference to the past so that this is about a historical discovery.

A further confirmation comes from the fact that the Ascendant [16ta21] is conjunct the star alpha Horologium [16ta02] – the  Pendulum Clock! [2]
