Events in Israel are facing the challenge set up by the upcoming Mars-Saturn conjunction on April 11. Why? Well because the conjunction makes a square aspect to the horizon axis at Cairo where the talks with Hamas are being held. 

In his post on the solar eclipse, Gray Crawford discusses the Mars-Saturn and Jupiter-Uranus conjunctions. 

Through welding the burning heat of Mars to the disciplined, determined focus of Saturn. The inflamed aggressiveness of Mars can become tempered by the restraint of Saturn, making it possible to direct the boldness of Mars with serious thought and pragmatic strategy. Even when we have a clear place to direct Mars and Saturn, however, they do not facilitate achieving results quickly. The combination of Mars and Saturn corresponds with working hard to persist through obstacles and developing work that takes time to come to fruition, yet will ultimately possess a long lasting impact and influence. 

 So while there are difficulties to work through on the one hand, combined with other influences such as Jupiter and Uranus that correspond with breaking through limitations. It’s possible that we may have to persist through a week of delays and busy life events that dissipate energy following the eclipse before being able to enjoy more of the liberating uplift of Jupiter and Uranus mixing together in the third week of April. Mars and Saturn combining suggests we will need to face difficult circumstances with courageous resiliency, and so it may be the tests and challenges we must persist through in the wake of the eclipse that leads us to the inventive revelations of Jupiter and Uranus. Jupiter and Uranus in combination possess one of the most powerful forces of liberation within all of astrology, making it an ideal time to embody the positive relational changes we would like to witness in the wider world within our own personal relationships. 

On the  IC [29pi45] of the chart is Neptune [28pi15]. About this area Diana Rosenberg writes: 

As if anticipating the new beginnings of Aries in the next degree, there are breakthroughs in communications as well as sorrows and disasters that lead to reforms and new beginnings. And now and then miracles! 

To understand how she arrives at this conclusion, take a look at depiction of the star Scheat, beta Pegasi which is on the IC. In mythology, Pegasus was the Flying Horse that lifted the chained Princess Andromeda and her rescuer Perseus from the jaws of Cetus, the raging sea monster!
