AG Barr initiates criminal probe


Virgin goddess Astraea with scales of Justice




The US Justice Department has launched a criminal investigation into the origins of the Mueller inquiry, US media report. An administrative review into the Special Counsel's investigation began in May. But the switch to a criminal probe means investigators can now issue subpoenas for testimony and documents.

Mars’ upcoming square to the ongoing Saturn-Pluto conjunction is the big news this week.  Mars is the planet of war and when it faces off with Saturn, the planet of boundaries, or with Pluto, the planet of power, it is  likely to heat up the atmosphere and cause intense conflicts.

Being the war god, normally Mars tends  to assert selfish interests above all others. But Mars is in Libra and that placement allows personal interests take a backseat to shared concerns coupled with strong mutual intention to find the peaceful ground of compromise. (Note: Mars transiting over Putin’s radix Sun [14li] is helping him in bringing peace to Syria.)

While the Mars—Saturn square is worldwide in scope, it primarily affects those places where a Moon phase brings it to the horizon or meridian. Shown here is the chart for the New Moon of Oct. 27 at  Washington, DC. Notice that the Mars-Saturn square aligns perfectly with the meridian thereby focusing its energy at the place.

In the US Sibly, the Sun [13cn] is square Saturn [14li]. Saturn conjoined the Sibly Sun in 2003. This was the beginning of the Iraq war. In 2011 at the start of the Syria war it was conjunct its radix position [14li]. Now at the halfway mark, with Saturn opposing the Sun, obstacles present themselves that illuminate the conflicted relationship that the US has with the world as well as with its own self. The US Sibly Saturn [14li] is amid stars of the Virgin and the Crow. From time immemorial, the Crow has been a symbol of malevolence and corruption. On the other hand, the Virgin was identified with  the virgin goddess Iustitia or Astraea, holding the scales of justice in her hand as the constellation Libra. With Mars now transiting over the Sibly Saturn we are beginning to witness the symbolic fight between the Crow and the Virgin. Transiting Saturn–Pluto activated by the Mars transit reflects a lesson about the right use of power, so the combination is also associated with the karmic consequences of corruption and abuse of power (AG Barr launching criminal investigation into Mueller probe)

On a personal level events may show us that conformity  to outer authorities comes at a high price. If we have not done the inner work, then there is likely to be some kind of outburst now – an angry confrontation, an accident etc. At best, the “acting out” of frustrations, angers, and resentments can cause a healing crisis. Those who are ready to heal will break away from outmoded and artificial social standards and from arrangements that are no longer fulfilling.

PS: With Mars conjoining Putin’s Sun already receiving a square from transit Saturn we are seeing the victory of the Virgin (peace) over the Crow (war..started under false pretexts). Recall the Syria war began with Saturn over US Sibly Saturn and Putin’s Sun in 2011.
