Nineteen
residents have been killed in a knife attack at a care centre for people with
mental disabilities in the Japanese city of Sagamihara. Such attacks are
extremely rare in Japan - the incident is the worst mass killing in decades. Police
have arrested a local man, said to be a former employee of the centre, who went
to a nearby police station and allegedly admitted to the attack. He reportedly
said he wanted people with disabilities to "disappear". The attack
has shocked Japan, one of the safest countries in the world. http://www.bbc.com/news/world-asia-36890655
We will attempt to understand the news using two approaches
(a) from the mundane chart of Japan [1] (b) from the chart of the Last Quarter
Moon of July 27.
Presented here is the precession corrected current solar
return chart for Japan. Note the T-square of TNP Zeus, Uranus and Pluto
straddling the angles. On the Ascendant with the TNP Zeus are stars of Bootes, the
armed herdsman, sometimes depicted with a spear rather than a shepherd’s crook.
Here, therefore, is potential for aggression. Uranus, on the descendant, is
conjunct the stars of in the belly of Cetus, the sea monster and in King
Cepheus’ head. The sea monster represents psychotic storms that can threaten
human sanity.
If we combine this with Martha Wescott’s delineation for
Uranus-Pluto “unexpected reactions based on resentment” we can see the reason
behind the knife attack.
Progressing the chart to the date of the attack brings the
T-square to the meridian thereby triggering it.
Secondly, we present the chart for the Last Quarter Moon of
July 27 anchored through hard aspects to planets on the horizon axis. Here the
Sun is conjunct the TNP Vulcanus and the asteroids Psyche and Siva while Moon is
conjunct Ceres. Martha Wescott delineates as follows:
Psyche/Siva :
psychological breakdown; explosion of rage stemming from emotional wounds.
Psyche/Vulcanus:
people are driven by their pain or emotional trauma.
Ceres/Siva: a
caregiver’s rage.
