Health benefits of a daytime snooze



Researchers say taking forty winks in the middle of the day could reduce blood pressure and stave off heart attacks. The findings of the study were unveiled at a conference of the European Society of Cardiology. Aug 30 http://www.bbc.com/news/health-34101263







The upcoming total lunar eclipse of September 28 overshadows  major world events. A chart for the eclipse at London,  where the European Society of Cardiology  conference is being held, is shown here. Notice that it makes hard aspects to the meridian suggesting that it has an important message for the place. The salient  elements of the eclipse from which the news can be pieced are as follows.

Mars and Neptune align with the horizon axis. It is well known to astrologers that with a Mars-Neptune  combination, focus is compromised and physical energy depleted. Here Mars, the planet connected with energy and activity, is opposite Neptune, the planet linked with sleep, in a way suggesting a need for rest. Mars is also conjunct the asteroid Hygiea (medical and health issues) and the star Regulus, the heart of the Lion hinting at heart related ailments.

Mars is also in a hard aspect to the TNP Zeus which is conjunct the asteroids  Valentine and Aesculapia. Martha Wescott’s key phrases for these entities below when put together explain the news perfectly.

EROS & VALENTINE: Sexuality; reproductive organs; the heart & cardiac system; the history, experience and behavioral repertoire of eroticism; joie de vivre; what “turns you on;” the Will to Live (the “passion” for life.)

ZEUS: Restrained or creative fire/energy; enthusiasm; controlled & directed forces (thus both planning and controlling strong emotions;) guns, power tools, machines, motors, fireplaces, fuels; excitement; to incite; military; blood pressure; ability to harness energies for accomplishment.

AESCULAPIA: Contact with physicians (including the internal healer) and belief-systems about the health, symptoms and medical conditions. See aspects of “in need of or contributing to Healing.”


HYGIEA: Medical concerns and health (especially issues related to FITNESS;) “hygiene” and cleanliness.
