During
World War Two, thousands of Japanese pilots volunteered to be kamikaze,
suicidally crashing their planes in the name of their emperor. More than 70
years on, the BBC's Mariko Oi asks what these once revered men mean to Japan's
youth. Irrational, heroic and stupid: this was what three young people in Tokyo
said when I asked them about their views on the kamikaze. Nov.3 http://www.bbc.com/news/world-asia-39351262
In his The Book of
World Horoscopes, Nicholas Campion (1996 ed.) writes "Horoscopes for
modern Japan are set for the revival of the country following the defeat in the
second world war in 1945, and its occupation by the USA". Campion mentions
that the post-war constitution came into effect "apparently at 0.00 hrs on
3 May 1947 in Tokyo".
In mundane astrology, the national chart is of utmost
importance. Since the First House or Ascendant describes the masses, the
progressed Ascendant of a national chart throws light on the gradual evolution
taking place in the way the masses think. The table below indicates that the
progressed Ascendant is now within a degree of a square to radix Pluto-Sun
square.

Notice that the upcoming Full Moon [11ta] of November 4
falls on the radix Sun [11ta] and therefore acts as a trigger to the progressed
Ascendant conjunct Sun square Pluto aspect.
To understand the chart a little better we will
concentrate on the Sun-Kronos-Zeus-Pluto-Jupiter T-square that aligns with the
meridian. If we add the asteroids, we have Icarus[18Aq] square Siwa [18ta] that
also aligns with the T-square. Icarus refers to aircrafts and flights while
Siwa is devastation so that Icarus-Siwa can combine to describe kamikaze
pilots. The TNP Kronos also refers to aircraft
and the TNP Zeus has association with guns and the military so that with
Pluto which refers to radical circumstances we have another connection to
military aircraft being used as a desperate solution.
Pluto [10le] is conjunct the nebulous cluster in the Crab’s
shell, Praesepe M44 – The Beehive. About
this area, Nick Fiorenza writes:
Praesepe embodies
the essence of the Scarab / Cancer theme: emergence out of darkness, dogma, and
delusion, out of the antiquated entrapments we had been living in, and our
transmutation from darkness into light. Praesepe is of new beginnings, migration,
shedding old skins, skeletons, and cocoons. It is of emerging out of the
frenetic confusion of mass consciousness; finding our new path and direction;
leaving behind old dwellings and the structures of consciousness they
represent; and getting out of our personal or collective dogma and the darkness
it creates. http://www.lunarplanner.com/LunarMonths2003/lunarmonth.03.07.28.html
This neatly explains why the younger generation is
leaving the old consciousness behind.
