Paris waiter 'shot dead over slow service'


A waiter near Paris has been shot dead by a customer who was reportedly angry because his sandwich was not prepared quickly enough. Police say a murder investigation has been launched after the incident on Friday evening in the eastern suburb of Noisy-le-Grand. The suspect fled the scene and has not been caught.

Astrologers routinely cast horoscopes for exact planetary aspects. While the effect of these aspects are worldwide in scope, those places where significant configurations occupy the angles are the ones most affected. Shown here is the chart at Paris  for the Mercury square Uranus on Aug. 16, the very day of the incident.   Notice that a Mars-Saturn-Admetus configuration makes hard aspects to the Ascendant.

In astrology, Mars represents how we need to pursue what we want in order to be effective.  Ideally, our Mars needs to be spending most of its time in a state of focused action to bring us closer to our goals.  In reality, it’s likely that we also experience Mars as frustration and anger in our daily life. 

Mars and Saturn do not always get along, because Mars is hot and Saturn is cold (in a psychological sense).  When these two planets are in hard aspect we have events where a person may be angry because he feels held back.  

Now here is where things become really interesting. Mars [29le] is conjunct the asteroid Hebe [29le] and square the TNP Admetus [1ge]. Martha Wescott [1] provides the following definitions:

ADMETUS: Facing blockages; biding your time; encountering delays, frustrations, complications or the need for something else to happen BEFORE success or progress.

HEBE: Service personnel (waitresses, secretaries, receptionists, bartenders, etc.;) service attitudes; enabling (facilitating the egocentric, emotionally immature or demanding behaviors of others); codependency.

The client felt angry at the delay (Admetus) and took it out on the waiter (Hebe)!

Let us take it just one step further. The dwarf planet Ceres completes a T-square with Mars-Hebe-Admetus. And what is Ceres [1]?

CERES: The need for nurturing; food.
