Mars – god of war Two days ago a policeman in Minnesota, who was well known for his brutality, murdered a black man, George Floyd, by suffocating him during an arrest for allegedly paying with a fake $20 bill. (video, longer version) It was one of many such murders. May 29 https://www.moonofalabama.org/ Astrologers routinely draw charts for New Moons and Full Moons to assess the nature of events that are likely to take place. Here is the chart for the current New Moon of May 22 drawn for Minneapolis. Notice that the New Moon which is  square Mars straddles the horizon and is therefore significant for the place.  Mars, the god of war, is the perfect archetype of the aggressor while the water sign Pisces is often linked to victims of aggression. It is for this reason that Mars in Pisces often brings about events in which people are victimized.   More specifically, Diana Rosenberg associates the stars that conjoin Mars [6pi] with “acts of vicious intolerance, fanaticism

Social media giants have long hid behind a law shielding them from litigation to censor content they did not like. President Donald Trump’s executive order just reminded them that laws can also be used as a sword. Though the First Amendment to the US Constitution prohibits the government from restricting freedom of speech, social media platforms have long argued this does not apply to them as private companies. The executive order signed by Trump on Thursday points out that their status as platforms, and immunity from endless civil lawsuits, depends on their removal of controversial content being done “in good faith.” May 28 https://www.rt.com/op-ed/490061-trump-executive-order-twitter-230/ The monthly rhythm of the Lunation Cycle (the cycle of relationship between the Sun and the Moon) is perhaps the most important planetary cycle.  The phases of the Moon are considered significant for a place if they fall on the angles (horizon or meridian). Shown here is First Quarte

Astronomers have captured an image of a super-rare type of galaxy - described as a "cosmic ring of fire" - as it existed 11 billion years ago. The galaxy, which has roughly the mass of the Milky Way, is circular with a hole in the middle, rather like a titanic doughnut. Its discovery, announced in the journal Nature Astronomy, is set to shake up theories about the earliest formation of galactic structures and how they evolve. May 26 https://www.sott.net/article/435146-Astronomers-detect-galaxy-formed-like-cosmic-ring-of-fire The worldview underlying astrology sees all of reality as symbolic in nature. To the symbolist, the heavenly bodies are threads within a great tapestry of affinities and correspondences. Elwell has defined the term multicongruence as   the tendency for certain things and conditions to co-occur because they belong together at a higher, unmanifest level.   Similarly, the ancient Hermetic doctrine “as above, so below” or “as inside, so outside” sums

“‘You should’ve died for your crimes,’ Nico continued. ‘That was the punishment. Instead you got exile. You should have stayed away. Your father Orcus may not approve of broken oaths. But my father Hades really doesn’t approve of those who escape punishment.’” But now let’s take a look at Schiff’s sins and see how they compare. Back in 2017, he was the ranking Democrat on the House Intelligence Committee and therefore the man Democrats counted on to lead the charge that Trump had colluded with the Kremlin….he assured MSNBC that the evidence of collusion was “more than circumstantial.” Nine months after that, he informed CNN’s Jake Tapper that the case was no longer in doubt: “The Russians offered help, the campaign accepted help, the Russians gave help, and the president made full use of that help.” In February 2018, he told reporters: “There is certainly an abundance of non-public information that we’ve gathered in the investigation. And I think some of that non-public eviden

Jacob Peter Gowy's The Flight of Icarus (1635–1637) Pakistan International Airlines flight, going from Lahore to Karachi, has crashed moments before the landing The aircraft was carrying around 100 passengers. The PIA plane crashed over a residential colony near the Jinnah International Airport in Karachi. The extent of damage or loss of life is still unknown. PIA spokesperson Abdul Sattar has confirmed the crash. The PIA flight PK 8303 was carrying 91 passengers and 8 crew members. May 22 Eclipses have been known to be connected with accidents especially at places where they occur on the horizon or meridian. They become active at least 3 months prior to their actual occurrence and more so on New Moons and Full Moons. The upcoming lunar eclipse of June 6 falls on the meridian at Karachi, Pakistan. And today is a New Moon that begins the lunar eclipse cycle. Notice that the eclipse axis forms a T-square with Mars – a planet associated with accidents. Moreover, in

In a previous post of December 18, 2019, entitled Solar Eclipse and the US Impeachment drama [1], I wrote: A chart for the upcoming solar eclipse of Dec. 26 drawn for Washington, DC is shown here. The eclipse Sun, Moon, Jupiter and the South Node in Capricorn are placed on the IC (cusp of 4th house) which rules the opposition party. Opposite to this on the 10th cusp which rules the President is the North Node in Cancer. The South Node in Capricorn points to a misuse of power. The North Node is said to be where society is going energetically and the lessons we as a collective are incorporating into our consciousness. The South Node is what we are leaving behind, especially the lower vibrations of the governing sign. Among the stars on the 10 th cusp (the President) is Alhena. About Alhena, Nick Fiorenza writes: Alhena indicates it is decision time and impels us to get off the fence of indecision, to drop any hesitation, as the time is at hand to go forth anew, t

Super Cyclonic Storm Amphan is currently a very powerful tropical cyclone over the Bay of Bengal threatening Odisha and West Bengal in India as well as Bangladesh. It is the first tropical cyclone of the 2020 North Indian Ocean cyclone season. Amphan is the first super cyclonic storm in the Bay of Bengal since the 1999 Odisha cyclone. An Orange message was issued for the coasts of Odisha and West Bengal. Odisha's six districts of Kendrapada, Bhadrak, Balasore, Mayurbhanj, Jagatsinghpur and Jajpur have been kept under active response of NDRF teams. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cyclone_Amphan Important planetary conjunctions are capable of producing major geo-physical disturbances especially when mundane charts (e.g. ingress charts) bring them to the angles. This is especially true if the conjunction falls very close to the line of horizon i.e. the cusps of the first and seventh houses, or of the meridian i.e. the cusps of the tenth and fourth houses. Of these two lines,

Binding of Ixion – Ancient Greek Vase Painting Why is former President Obama calling forth all his defensive resources now?   Why did former national security advisor Susan Rice write her CYA letter?   Why have republicans in congress not been willing to investigate the true origins of political surveillance?   What is the reason for so much anger, desperation and opposition from a variety of interests? https://bit.ly/2Z2meI1 In this post we shall look at Obama’s chart and its current major progressions. The first chart is Obama’s natal chart and the second is the current secondary (day for year) progression. Notice that the progressed MC has now reached a conjunction with natal Saturn placed in the 12 th along with Jupiter. Let us remember that anyone born with a Jupiter-Saturn conjunction (like Obama here) will at 59-60 years of age have a repeat conjunction since Jupiter will have completed 5 cycles (5x12 years) while Saturn  will have completed 2 cycles (2x30 years

“As above, so below, as within, so without, as the universe, so the soul…” ― Hermes Trismegistus Within the past several days, large earthquakes have been striking all along the outer rim of the Pacific Ocean, and many are wondering if all of this activity could potentially be building up to something really big. https://www.zerohedge.com/health/world-distracted-covid-19-series-large-earthquakes-rocking-ring-fire Earthquakes are found to be associated with eclipses and important planetary conjunctions and oppositions. We are now in the wake of two important planetary conjunctions – the Jan 12 Saturn-Pluto conjunction [22 cp] and the April 4 Jupiter-Pluto conjunction [24 cp]. Pluto stationed retrograde on April 24 and now Saturn and Jupiter are   going retrograde on May 11 and May 14 respectively. In my previous post I wrote: Although rarely on the station-day itself, but frequently within a week on either side of it, there is a marked shift in energy patterns, b

To understand how the US Sibly is about to be impacted a brief review is necessary. Pluto stationed retrograde on April 24 and now Saturn and Jupiter are about to go retrograde on May 11 and May 14 respectively. Recall   that the three outer planets — Jupiter, Saturn, and Pluto, are moving through Capricorn within a 7° arc of the zodiac from 24° Capricorn to 1°Aquarius well within orb of influencing the Sibly radix Pluto [27 Capricorn]. As each of these planets begin their retrograde period, a new chapter in the drama is about to unfold. Retrograde inversion times are necessary and useful periods that are accompanied by a feeling that ‘something has to give’ and often result in chaos and disorder. Although rarely on the station-day itself, but frequently within a week on either side of it, there is a marked shift in energy patterns, both psychologically and physically. Because the station-retrograde only initiates the disruption but does not complete anything, a feeling of di

At least 11 people, including a minor, are reported to have died following a leakage of styrene gas at LG Polymers' Vizag plant in the early hours of Thursday. According to reports another 1,000 people reported sick after the gas spread in five villages within a three-km radius of the plant. 7 May An explosion has occurred at a plant of NLC India Limited in Tamil Nadu’s Cuddalore. Reports said a boiler exploded at the plant of NLC India Limited, formerly known as Neyveli Lignite Corporation Limited. Seven people are reported to be injured in the boiler blast. 7 May A MiG-29UPG of the Indian Air Force (IAF) from an airbase near Jalandhar crashed on Friday. The pilot, however, ejected safely. 8 May Fifteen migrant workers in a group of 20 were killed after a cargo train ran over them while they were sleeping on the tracks in Maharashtra's Aurangabad this morning , the railways said. The migrants were walking from Jalna to Bhusaval, 157 km apart. 8 May In 1952

“If you bring forth what is within you, what you bring forth will save you. If you do not bring forth what is within you, what you do not bring forth will destroy you.”   ― Gospel of Thomas Presented here is the horoscope of Samuel Hahnemann [1], the founder of Homeopathy. Notice the conjunction of the Ascendant with Pluto amid the stars of Ophiuchus. Ophiuchus, or Serpentarius, the Serpent-holder, the Serpent Bearer, the Serpent Wrestler, or the Snake Charmer, is depicted holding a snake, the snake is represented by the constellation Serpens. The constellation is located around the celestial equator with the two legs of Ophiuchus protruding right into the zodiac and south of the ecliptic. Ophiuchus is identified with Aesculapius (Asklepios, Asclepius), an ancient physician who grew so skilled in the craft of healing that he was able to restore the dead to life [2]. Pluto   was the ruler of the underworld in classical mythology. The earlier name for the god was
