Nine
Qatari royal aircraft made consecutive landings over the weekend at Zurich Airport,
after the former emir of Qatar reportedly broke his leg at a Moroccan ski
resort. The planes were cleared to land despite a local ban on night flights. The
first Airbus of Qatari royal fleet arrived at Zurich-Kloten shortly after
midnight last Saturday, local newspaper Tages Anzeiger reports. It was cleared
to land by the Swiss Air Force because the Civil Aviation Authority’s office
was closed at the time. Under current regulations, overnight take-offs and
landings are prohibited at Zurich Airport to avoid disturbing local residents
with aircraft noise. The flight came directly from Marrakech, Morocco, where
Qatar’s royal family was vacationing at Ifrane ski resort in the Atlas
Mountains, and was reportedly carrying former ruler of Qatar, Sheikh Hamad bin
Khalifa Al Thani, who abdicated in 2013 due to poor health. Earlier on
Thursday, the Qatari government’s communications office said the sheikh had
suffered “a broken leg while on holiday” and was flown to Zurich on Saturday
for surgery. Dec.29
The
horoscope of Qatar is based on its independence from the British on September
1, 1971; 0:00 am; Doha [1]. The radix Sun [7vi] is square the Saturn-Kronos-Jupiter-Neptune
axis with transiting Saturn [10sa] opposite the Saturn-Kronos end and transit
Neptune opposite the Sun. Currently the progressed Sun [21li] is square the
radix Saturn [6ge]. Keyphrases for the relevant combinations from Martha Wescott are
given below.
Kronos-Saturn:
Events through the patriarch, elder statesman or aging leader [2]
Saturn-Neptune:
Weakness in the bones or joints [2]
The
monarch broke his leg on Thursday, Dec. 24 when transit Mercury [21cp] acting
as a fast moving trigger made hard aspects to the radix Saturn [6ge] and
progressed Sun [21li]. Mercury [21cp] was conjunct the star iota Sagittarii
[22cp] in the hind foot of the Archer – an area that Diana Rosenberg links to “leg
ailments”.
A chart
for the Full Moon of December 25 at Marrakech has the Saturn-Neptune square on
the angles. Saturn is in tropical
Sagittarius. Sagittarius is a sign that is linked with a love of
outdoor sports like hiking, skiing etc. The planet Saturn rules the
bones in our body and here it is conjunct the
royal star Antares and a smaller
star 45 Herculis. A “Royal Star” is
often a direct reference to royalty. Hercules provides courage, energy,
physicality and a daring all-or-nothing attitude that needs and seeks expression. It is often linked to dancers, acrobats and
sports champions (a Latin epithet for Hercules was saltator, “leaper”), but
some lacking a sense of moderation, may “go for broke”, risking their health
and/or their reputations in their headlong passion to win. Diana Rosenberg
lists “sports injuries” under its star.
Finally,
we notice that the Full Moon [3cn] is conjunct the star eta (η) Gemini, Propus
[3cn]. The name, taken directly from the Greek, means "forward foot,"
appropriate to its position as the foot of the western twin Castor! Its
conjunction with Kronos-Hades here
refers to an ex-emir.
