Oil Tanker burns
At
least 100 people were on Sunday charred to death and 75 others severely injured
after an oil tanker caught fire and exploded on a highway in Bahawalpur
district of Pakistan's Punjab Province, according to media reports. The tanker
caught fire and exploded apparently after fuel leakage from its damaged
containers. At least 100 people were killed and 75 others severely injured in
the blaze, local media reported. People had gathered around the tanker after it
overturned to collect oil that had leaked out. June 25 http://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/world/pakistan/over-100-killed-40-injured-as-oil-tanker-catches-fire-in-pakistans-bahawalpur/articleshow/59306644.cms
Among other cosmic phenomena, exact planetary aspects are considered important
in astrology. In the week following June 25, Mercury, Mars, Jupiter and Pluto
will be forming a T-square. During this period Mercury and Mars will take turns
to form exact aspects to other planets in the T. Places where these aspects
occupy the angles become especially vulnerable to their influence.
Shown here is the chart for the Mercury-Mars conjunction at
Bahawalpur, Pakistan. Notice that the conjunction occurs exactly on the IC and
the T-square straddles the meridian.
Mercury-Mars and the IC are conjunct alpha (α) Canis Major, Sirius, a
binary, brilliant white and yellow star in the Greater dog. It is the brightest
star in the night sky.
Sirius’reputation of being linked to fires has been known
since ancient times:
"The brilliant
constellation of the Dog: it barks forth flame, raves with its fire, and
doubles the burning heat of the Sun. When it put its torch to the earth and
discharges its rays, the earth foresees its conflagration and tastes its
ultimate fate [translator's note: the ecpyrosis of the Stoics, who held that
the Universe would ultimately be engulfed in conflagration and all things would
return to the condition of primeval fire]." [Manilius, Astronomica, 1st
century AD, book 5, p.316-319].
Here Mercury, the planet associated with travel, and
therefore to cars and trucks is conjunct Mars linked to rashness and
carelessness and both are trine Neptune,
which is associated with oil, so that it is not surprising that an oil tanker
was involved in the accident.
