Horologium
Oscillatorium
the Pendulum Clock
The
bongs of Big Ben have sounded for the final time before they are silenced for a
four-year period of restoration workon the Elizabeth Tower. The tower is
undergoing a £29m programme of renovation until 2021, but the prime minister
and several MPs have raised concerns over the plan to silence the bell. Aug. 21

The worldview underlying astrology sees all of reality as
symbolic in nature. To the symbolist, the heavenly bodies are threads within a
great tapestry of affinities and correspondences. Thus even when an article is
published, the symbolist can find important clues connecting the contents of
the article with the planetary configurations at that time.
The major planetary alignment in 2015-16 was the Saturn-Neptune
square. On September 10, 2016, Saturn-Neptune formed the last of three square transits.
A chart for the mundane event at London has the square straddling the horizon
axis suggesting that it is significant for the place.
On the IC are stars of Horologium. This constellation, Horologium
Oscillatorium, was added by La Caille in 1752 to honor Christiaan Huygens who
invented the first pendulum clock in 1656. Horologium is from Latin horologium,
from Greek orologion, literally 'that which tells the hour', from ora, 'hour',
and -logion, that which tells, from legein to tell.
Saturn is named after the Roman god Saturn, equated to the
Greek Chronos. In Greek mythology,
Chronos in pre-Socratic philosophical works is said to be the personification
of time. He emerged from the primordial Chaos and was depicted in Greco-Roman mosaics as a man
turning the zodiac wheel. Often the figure is named Aeon (Eternal Time), a
common alternate name for the god. His name actually means "Time",
and is alternatively spelled Khronos (transliteration of the Greek), Chronos,
Chronus (Latin version). Some of the current English words which show a tie to
khronos/chronos and the attachment to time are chronology, chronic, and
chronicle.
Time, space and form are expressions of the fragments of
existence, they represent the reality of separation. On the other hand,
Neptune has no notion of boundaries and
structures. For Neptune, with its principle of interconnectedness of all
fragments, time is a mirage. So while
Saturn rules time, Neptune tends to end
our perception of time.
Several mystery schools believe that our Earth along with its
inhabitants is now ready to move from the Third to the Fifth Dimension.
The most important
difference between Third and Fifth Dimensional reality is a change in the
nature of Time and Space and how they are perceived by you. Time and Space were
fixed realities in the Third Dimension. In the Fifth Dimension they are fluid
and are understood to be largely illusionary. Time in the Fifth Dimension is
perceived as the Eternal NOW or present. http://lightparty.com/Spirituality/living-5-dimension.htm
If we progress the chart for the Saturn-Neptune square to
August 21, 2017 the progressed meridian reaches a conjunction to Saturn
triggering the square and silencing Big Ben!
