Stalactite – Mineral deposition from flowing water
(CNN)The
calcium in our bones and teeth likely came from stars exploding in supernovas
and scattering this mineral across the universe in massive quantities,
according to a new study. We truly are made of star stuff, as famed astronomer
Carl Sagan once said. In fact, half of the calcium in the universe likely came
from calcium-rich supernovae. But these explosions have turned out to be
incredibly rare events that scientists have had difficulty observing and
analyzing, so they weren't sure how the calcium was created. Aug. 5 https://cnn.it/2XEuY5n
For the astrologer,
coincidence is the visible aspect of a more pervasive framework of design that
underlies all experiences. The events in our lives are connected by an
intricate chain of linked analogies and astrology offers a way to see these
connections.
The calcium
rich supernova SN2019ehk [1] was discovered on April 29, 2019 at 22:27:5 UT. Coordinates
(J2000): RA = 12:22:56.130 (185.733875) DEC = +15:49:33.60 (15.826). With this
data the ecliptic position is 178.78 [28vi47]
In Latin, nova means "new", referring
astronomically to what appears to be a temporary new bright star. Adding the
prefix "super-" distinguishes supernovae from ordinary novae, which
are far less luminous. A supernova is an event that occurs upon the death of
certain types of stars. Supernovae may expel much, if not all, of the material
away from a star in a brilliant explosion. Metaphorically , therefore, a Super
Nova symbolizes the necessary evolution
of ego/psychology to soul/spirit. The pre-explosion mass loss symbolically
represents the shedding of unnecessary defenses, attachments or
"baggage." The Super Nova rings the bell of the soul's calling [2].
Calcium is
not simply a substance. It is recognized as representing energy fields of
specific physiological qualities. In the periodic table it belongs to the group
of elements called earth-alkalis. The
earth-alkalis are functionally connected with formation and solidification as
they delimit themselves against the liquid medium out of which they are born. A
good example would be stalactite and stalagmite - elongated forms of various
minerals deposited from solution by slowly dripping water. The formation of
teeth and bone takes place through a similar mechanism.
Mentally and
on the personality level, the tendency of walling off and inner stabilization
means a leaning towards separativeness and self-finding. While in its favorable
aspect this means independence, in its less favorable aspect it is withdrawal from people, tendency to go
it alone and loss of social contact [3]. Can it be a coincidence that a
supernova rich in Calcium explodes before our eyes just as the world is forced
into social distancing?
SN2019ehk is
in the constellation Coma Bernice. This is one of the brightest and largest galaxies
in the Virgo Cluster. Astrologers link Virgo to withdrawal to achieve inner
purity.
Among issues
related to the stars in this area, Diana Rosenberg lists “submission to
authority or rebellion against authority”.
Astrologers also
like to look at the Sabian symbol [4] of the ecliptic degree at which a new
astronomical object is discovered to figure out what it might be saying. In his
commentary on the Sabian symbol for [29 Virgo] Dane Rudhyar states:
Any revolutionary movement, once
it has succeeded in over- coming the inertia of the past and in toppling
obsolete structures, needs to tap the most essential realities of what Man
represents and signifies in the universal Order; or else it merely re-embodies
in a superficially altered manner the very things it has destroyed. This is the
crucial moment.
This then is
the purpose of the withdrawal – a need to decondition ourselves from others as well as the rules
imposed by authority or tradition in order to get in touch with the purity of our inner
being…something that can only be done through some kind of isolation.
