A
Hungarian camerawoman who was filmed kicking or tripping up migrants near the
Hungary-Serbia border has been sentenced to three years probation for
disorderly conduct. Petra Laszlo was filming refugees in September 2015 as they
broke through a police cordon. She was captured kicking two people as they
fled, including a young girl. Later she appeared to trip a man carrying a
child. She says she will appeal. Judge Illes Nanasi said Laszlo's behaviour
"ran counter to societal norms" and rejected her defence lawyer's
argument that she was trying to protect herself. She
appeared in Szeged District Court hearing via video link and occasionally broke
into tears. She said she had received death threats since the incident and that
had been subjected to a "hate campaign". Ja.12 http://www.bbc.com/news/world-europe-38604909
The Szeged District Court judgement was delivered just a day
after the Full Moon. On January 12, the Sun also completed a square to Jupiter
just a few hours before the Full Moon. A chart for the Sun-Jupiter square drawn
for Szeged brings Sun-Moon-Jupiter-Uranus-Pluto Grand Cross to the meridian
implying that this was one place where its energy was being fully felt.
The combination of Uranus and Pluto serve to advance major
social, cultural, political, scientific, and technological breakthroughs. Whenever
Uranus and Pluto come together in any hard aspect we witness a period of
increased societal unrest, during which issues of human rights and social
welfare are addressed. On the mental plane, the revolutionizing influence of
Uranus liberates the crystallized consciousness (Capricorn) and the structural
realities that underlie modern societies and modern life. Eventually we learn to shift from a consciousness that is
primarily defined by a false sense of separateness and that pits one against
another. The presence of Jupiter in the mix advocates for fairness in all human
relationships. It is time to embrace compassion, love, and inclusion, rather
than hate and fear.
The stars that form the backdrop to the Moon [18cn] in the
Grand Cross add further clarity to the picture. Here the Moon is conjunct
lambda Pollux [19cn] in Pollux’s right hand which holds a club. Castor and
Pollux are Twins. Diana Rosenberg writes, “there are racial issues here
(including theories of race superiority) and issues of brotherhood vs
intolerance, hatred and coldness; “macho” brutality vs compassion. The less
evolved are impatient, intolerant, bad tempered and unscrupulous; some are
downright cruel. Under the influence of tropical Cancer they tend to be
conservative, reluctant to accept change; longing for a return to traditional
values, they are protective of all that has gone before”.
But paradoxically also here is the star nu Puppis [17cn]of the Celestial Ship Argo. This brings in
a conflict between the Cancerian need
for security and the adventurousness of the Twins often referred to as
Argonauts. This implies that there are choices to be made between attempting to
conserve existing cultures, values and mores or being open to new attitudes. Notice
how elegantly the problem mentioned in the news is highlighted by the intolerant photographer Lazlo (Pollux
with club) possibly angry at the danger of erosion of Hungarian values and the immigrants (Argo) bringing in new
values.
