Thailand's
King Bhumibol Adulyadej, the world's longest-reigning monarch, has died after
70 years as head of state, the palace says. The 88-year-old king was widely
revered but had been in poor health in recent years, making few public
appearances. He was seen as a stabilising figure in a country hit by cycles of
political turmoil and multiple coups. Crown Prince Maha Vajiralongkorn will be
the new monarch, the prime minister has said. A palace official, speaking to
crowds outside the hospital, said the body of the king would be moved to the
Temple of the Emerald Buddha in Bangkok on Friday.
"His
majesty has passed away at Siriraj Hospital peacefully," the palace
statement said earlier, adding he had died at 15:52 (08:52 GMT). Oct.13 http://www.bbc.com/news/world-asia-37643326
King Bhumibol Adulyadej’s death can be clearly seen in the
chart for the last solar eclipse which fell in the 8th house at
Bangkok. For eclipses in the mundane 8th
, H.S. Green writes:
Unfortunate for the Monarch and Government. If a solar eclipse, death
of some person eminent in the state, among Royalty, nobility or statesman.
The horoscope of King Bhumibol Adulyadej as provided by
Astro-Databank [1] is reproduced here. His solar arc progressed Sun
[12pi], ruler of his 8th house of death, forms a square aspect to his radix Sun[12sa]-Saturn[10sa] conjunction in
the 12th house. This important
direction is triggered by his third
Saturn return and the Sept.1 solar eclipse [9vi] resulting in the death of the
monarch.
Notice also that the chart for the reported time of death carries
the Saturn-Neptune-Node T-square (contained in the eclipse chart and activating
his radix) on the horizon axis with apex Saturn on MC.
