Saturn-Uranus square: Iran Anti-Hijab Protests

 

Protesting Iran’s Compulsory Hijab Law


A fifth day of protests in Iran have resulted in multiple deaths amid a security crackdown, following the death last week of Mahsa Amini, a 22-year-old from Iranian Kurdistan who reportedly died due to being roughed up by police for "unsuitable attire" - or not conforming to Islamic Republic standards of a hijab.

National charts are a gold mine of information. Iran’s chart is based on the return of Ayotullah Khomeini from exile (Feb.1, 1979; 9:30 am IT; Tehran) to form the present Islamic Repubic. Presented here is the current lunar chart for Iran. Notice the alignment of the Saturn-Uranus-TNP Poseidon with the meridian. Among other things the TNP Poseidon rules “religion”. 

In a previous post Saturn-Uranus square: Singapore to scrap anti-gay law [1], I wrote: 

Most readers would be well aware that the defining aspect of 2021-2022 has been the last quarter square between Saturn and Uranus. Astrological "squares" are known for creating tension between two points — and with this one involving Saturn, the Planet of Rules and Boundaries, and Uranus, the Planet of Freedom and Rebellion, things have been fairly intense. 

Saturn in its diminished expression can be controlling, wanting to own others and dictate behavior for them. It can be oppressive, righteous...In its evolved expression, Saturn can combine with Uranus bringing the ability to spontaneously change and to create new frontiers in experience and consciousness.

Therefore, 2021-2022 can be looked upon as a period of evolution. This may manifest as the need to release something we've outgrown.
