More
than 14,000 Saudi women signed a petition to the kingdom's Royal Court in an
effort to end the internationally criticized system. Rights Watch reported Saturday that women's
rights activists in the kingdom initiated a Twitter campaign to support the
move, trending such hashtags as #StopEnslavingSaudiWomen, #IAmMyOwnGuardian and
#TogetherToEndMaleGuardianship. Additionally, activists used social media to
spread instructions on how to submit a telegram calling on the king to comply
with their demands. Sept.27
The solar eclipse of September 1 synchronizes with the Lunar Perigee making this lunar cycle more impactive. Moreover at Riyadh, the capital of Saudi
Arabia it falls on the meridian as part of a powerful T-square.
In his blogpost on
the eclipse entitled New Directions, Nick Fiorenza
writes:
Solar eclipses offer
opportunity to redefine concepts of self and the roles we play in the world, or
how we articulate ourselves in life. They are about shifting octaves in the
nature of our self-perception and self-expression, and addressing issues that keep
us from doing so. They can invite a new beginning, way of life, or new way of
participating in life.
This New Moon eclipse
lies in the midst of the stars of Leo and under the auspices of Thuban of Draco
and Alioth of the Great Bear. It also conjoins the stars of the Sextant, and
Suhail Velorum of Argo Navis in the very southern heavens
Thuban of Draco, in
the far northern heavens, just north of Alioth of the Great Bear, was Earth’s
pole star circa 2800 BCE, a point in Earth’s ~25,000-year “evolutionary cycle
of the soul” at which time a turning and fractioning occurred in the
hierarchical powers governing Earth. This dramatized the separation between
those choosing to fight for a greater evolutionary vision and those wanting to
maintain totalitarian control of the Earth.
Alioth of Ursa Major,
star of personal free will, conjoins Thuban. Alignments with Alioth teach us
responsible use of free will and that our personal actions can alter the
evolutionary currents that create our
souls’ evolutionary destiny. Alioth stimulates the use of personal will and our
need to initiate personal action. Alioth is one of the classical seven rays of
the Great Bear teaching incarnating souls the ramifications of the use of
personal power and how it effects more than self and extends far beyond the
punctual moment.
In connection with the news, the above extract needs no
commentary. The women of Saudi Arabia who have long suffered under a
patriarchal and authoritarian male dominated society are asking for their
freedom. Notice that Uranus [24ar] aspects the eclipse. Here it is conjunct stars in constellation of the dictatorial King Cepheus and his
daughter Princess Andromeda depicted in
chains. Since a keyword for Uranus is freedom, it is no surprise that the women
in Saudi Arabia are now approaching the King demanding their freedom.
