The Fall of Ixion by Cornelis
van Haarlem
Zimbabwe's
embattled leader Robert Mugabe has vowed to stay in power for several weeks,
despite mounting calls for him to stand down now. In a live TV address, Mr
Mugabe said he would preside over the ruling party's congress in December. Zanu-PF
earlier sacked him as party leader, and gave him less than 24 hours to resign
as president or be impeached. His grip on power has weakened since the military
intervened on Wednesday, in a row over who should succeed him. The crisis began
when the 93-year-old president sacked his deputy, Emmerson Mnangagwa, two weeks
ago, angering army commanders who saw it as an attempt to position his wife as
his successor. Nov. 20 http://www.bbc.com/news/world-africa-42046911
The horoscope of Robert Mugabe based on data presented in
reference [1] is reproduced here. At his current age of 93 years his progressed
solar arc Ascendant [16vi] is now opposite Uranus [16pi] in the 10th
house and square Jupiter [16sa]-Mars [20sa] conjunction in the 7th.
A 7th – 10th conflict in his case shows up as a marriage
partner [7th] creating problems for his career [10th]
i.e. his position as a President of the country.
But there is more here. Opposite Uranus on the IC is the asteroid
Hera [18vi] (partner) and the newly discovered Centaur Ixion [20vi] while on
the Ascendant is the asteroid Dionysus [12ge]. About Ixion, Nick Fiorenza
writes:
Ixion seems to
exemplify people in authoritarian positions being brought to justice for
tyrannical deeds involving the suppression and manipulation of people, as well
as the destruction of people for one's own end. It brings emphasis to the
exposure for misdeeds driven from personal gratification. Ixion may bring attention to any internal
conflict regarding the nature of our actions and if they reflect the type of
person we really want to be, thus raising issues about self-deception or how we
may be in denial. Ixion may raise issues about our morals, if we are presenting
one persona to the world while our less-than ideal actions are demonstrating
something else entirely, something other than what we know we should ideally
demonstrate. Ixion may be related to where or how we may compromise our morals
for personal gratification, or draw experience where we may be tempted to do
so, and how we must deal with the karmic ramifications of doing so.
Moreover, the foregoing is confirmed by a simple delineation
for the asteroid- planet combination.
Dionysus-Hera: to be
in denial or to rationalize the behavior of a partner. (when combined with
Uranus) to invite a rebellion or disruption because of the denial.
Finally, if we calculate Mugabe’s diurnal chart [2] Ascendant
[15 pi] for the Nov. 15, the date of the coup, we find that it is conjunct his
radix Uranus [16pi] confirming our analysis to the day!
