Centaur carries impaled
Lupus to Altar
More
than 40 years after the end of the Vietnam war, dozens of ageing former
American soldiers have gone back to the country to live. Some had difficulty
adapting to civilian life in the US. Others have gone back in the hope of
atoning for wrongs they believe were committed during the war. Da Nang, Vietnam;

Eclipses offer a time to resynchronize ourselves with the
ever-changing cosmic currents supporting our evolutionary progression in
consciousness. They tend to bring about endings and new beginnings. And these
changes are a function of star
alignments and other aspecting planets occurring at the time of the eclipse.
The total solar eclipse of March 9 was conjunct the star
Achernar, alpha Eridanus. Aratus called Eridanus, “The River of Many Tears” and
Diana Rosenberg links it to “history and paradigm altering events”. “Here the
Phoenix-Firebird rises from its ashes renewed, Eridanus’ great River of Time
and the flow of water from Aquarius’ Urn sweep away all past errors and regrets”.
Jupiter is amidst the stars in the hind of the Lion. About
this constellation Manilius wrote:
"Who can doubt the nature of
the monstrous Lion, and the pursuits he prescribes for those born beneath his
sign? The lion ever devises fresh fights and fresh warfare on animals, and
lives on spoil and pillaging of flocks." [Manilius, Astronomica, 1st
century AD, p.237.]
Meanwhile Saturn which forms the apex of the eclipse
T-square is conjunct stars of Ara, in the Altar’s flame. Ara, the Altar is where
the Centaur, in an act of repentance, sacrifices Lupus, the Wolf, another predatory
animal like the Lion.
At Da Nang, Vietnam, the eclipse is significant since along
with its T-square it form hard aspects to the meridian. Progressing it to May
23, the date of the news, brings the T-square once again in aspect to the
meridian. So the Lion and the Wolf repent their old ways!
