Eclipse and the Yemen school bus bombing








The bombing of a bus full of schoolchildren last week was just one of more than 50 airstrikes against civilian vehicles by the Saudi-led coalition in Yemen so far this year, according to new data. The 9 August airstrike obliterated a bus carrying schoolboys on a field trip in northern Yemen, leaving 40 children and 11 adults dead. The schoolboys had been on the way to a cemetery where rebels were buried but survivors told journalists that was because it was one of the very few green spaces left in the whole of the northern Saada governorate. Parks and gardens have been destroyed in the relentless fighting. https://goo.gl/ZopRMr




The powerful total lunar eclipse of July 27 fell in the 10th house forming a T-square with Mars-Uranus and straddling  the horizon axis at Sadaa.  Eclipses can carry deep symbolic  messages that are delivered to us through external events. Here the eclipse Moon and Mars are placed among the stars of Altair the Eagle and Sagitta, the missile of Zeus. The eagle , a bird of prey, has been linked to the military and also to tyrants and conquerors. When pictured together with Sagitta, the missile, (as in image above) we have a clear reference to a modern fighter jet delivering a missile.

Directly opposite the Moon and Mars is the eclipse Sun placed in tropical Leo – a sign that we associate with children – the other major protagonists in the tragic event that occurred in Sadaa, Yemen.  The Mars-Uranus square in the mix refers here to a rash and impulsive action that leads to an unfortunate accident.




That the eclipse is indeed “responsible” for this tragedy is easily confirmed by progressing the angles to August 9  when we find that the meridian aligns with the eclipse axis, thereby triggering it.

The symbolic message of this tragic event is:

Can we put aside our cruel actions that support  outdated belief systems and “kill” the innocent inner child?
