The Icarus Paradox
Dutch police say they have found a stowaway alive in the wheel section of a plane that landed at Amsterdam's Schiphol airport from South Africa. Flights from Johannesburg to Amsterdam take about 11 hours, with the cargo plane believed to have made one stop, in Nairobi, Kenya. https://www.bbc.com/news/world-europe-60104010
The Full Moon of January 18, 2022 which aligned with the meridian at Amsterdam was conjunct the TNP Vulcanus and in opposition to a Sun-Pluto conjunction. Pluto transits often take us through experiences of darkness, despair and powerlessness. When Pluto combines with Vulcanus one is willing to do whatever it takes to escape radical circumstances. In such situations one can see the incredible power of internal psychological pressures.The Full Moon can activate inner, subterranean realms of deep soul patterns circulating within our unconscious which drive compulsive reactions.
The Full Moon is amid stars of the Twins who were intrepid travellers. Also here is the star Procyon, alpha Canis Minor. About this area Diana Rosenberg writes:
Rash, hasty, heedless, imprudent and reckless, they may be reluctant to ask for assistance and may plow ahead, straight into glory or disaster.
The asteroids Phaethon [2ta] and Icarus [5aq] complete a T-square square with TNP Vulcanus [2le]. Martha Wescott interprets the combinations as below:
ICARUS: Escapes that are careless of consequences; desire to get outta' here; the fast break impulse; attraction to speed, danger or risk; desire to get away from restrictions.
PHAETHON: Instances that involve cars, transport, driving; other forms of recklessness-feeling out of control-as though you’ve taken on more than you can handle; having trouble keeping to the middle of the road!
VULCANUS: Surge of power/strength; compulsion; awareness of invisible power & the power of influence; periods of burn-out alternate with a whatever it takes attitude.
Phaethon/Vulcanus: Be aware of a tendency to get reckless or careless BECAUSE there's a lot of pressure or a rather compulsive reactivity.
Icarus/ Vulcanus: You'll note that, for some people, the presence of pressure (a deadline, perhaps, or the perception that someone is "coming on too strong") causes a desire to flee--to make for the nearest exit. You may be aware of times when people are forced to take risks, face danger or "fly" (and this can be literal--ie., I HAVE TO get on the airplane and fly....
Recall that under the same Full Moon, French actor Gaspard Ulliel died in a ski accident [1].
