A
Philadelphia man has been exonerated and freed from prison 24 years after he
was found guilty of a murder he did not commit. Shaurn Thomas, 43, was released
after the Philadelphia District Attorney's office agreed that the evidence did
not support the conviction. Mr. Thomas, who was 19 when found guilty,
maintained all along he was at another court hearing during the crime. "I
feel wonderful," he said as he left the prison. He hugged his fiancee and
family outside the jail in Frackville, Pennsylvania, on Tuesday evening. http://www.bbc.com/news/world-us-canada-40023717
One of the tools used routinely in mundane astrology are charts
for important planetary aspects. Such charts become relevant for a place if significant
planetary combinations make aspects to the angles. Here is the chart for the Venus-Jupiter
opposition drawn for Frackville, Pennsylvania. Notice that the opposition
aligns with the meridian and forms a T with Pluto at the apex.
Venus in Aries squares Pluto in Capricorn. The
Aries-Capricorn square reflects the
struggle between the rights of an individual and the power of the state. Pluto in Capricorn is a reminder that the
power of state may have been used arbitrarily and with not much thought for the
individuals affected by the exercise of that power. Also Venus in Aries is conjunct
the stars Alpheratz, alpha (α) Andromeda and Alderamin, alpha (α) Cepheus. About these
stars Nick Fiorenza writes:
Alpheratz, head
(psyche) of the princess, is unadulterated, innocent, naive, uncorrupted by
evil, wrong-doing or malice. Alignments with Alpheratz can indicate being
caught in the power plays unconsciously created by the arrogance or denials of
others. Alpheratz can also indicate our vulnerability to the emotional and
psychic delusions of others… it asks us to get un-entangled from the human
psycho-emotional drama, or accept a sentence of bondage not rightfully ours. Alderamin,
the principal star of Cepheus, is the right shoulder of king Cepheus, often
portraying one in an authoritative position, and holds a quality of
authoritative responsibility. With afflicted alignments, Alderamin can
expresses as denial, avoidance, or turning one's head from dealing with the
manipulative power plays causing our or other people's entrapment, and a
flippant attitude to do anything about them. Alderamin ultimately comes to aid,
but often after an initial aloofness. Alpheratz and Alderamin amalgamate to
form a fortunate outcome. http://www.lunarplanner.com/HCpages/Synodic-Jupiter.html
