“What makes astrology supremely relevant is that it discloses an unsuspected dimension of the world we think we know so well. It is as though we have become accustomed to see only the horizontal yarn of the weaving, the weft, and are largely unaware of the warp. We are accustomed to break down our world, in order to understand it, into certain categories, recognizing what belongs to this category, what belongs to that. That is ‘scientific’. However, astrology is about learning to think in new categories. It embodies a system of new categories that are as different from the ones to which we are habituated, as the warp is from the weft. In this system objects and events that at first sight appear to have nothing whatever to do with each other are shown to be intimately connected. Conversely, things we naturally tend to associate may be distributed otherwise in the astrological scheme. Understanding the world around us depends on our power to perceive patterns of meaning, to make the right connections, recognize what belongs with what. It is not easy. Unaided, it is as if we are looking at the weaving from the wrong side, and it seems a mess, but with the help of astrology we can see the design as it is meant to be. As the shuttle of the cosmic loom ceaselessly weaves its intricate design, astrologers have the responsibility, or rather the awesome privilege, to work towards restoring to humanity the sense of high meaning it has all but lost.”

In this post we will discuss two pieces of news that at first glance appear not to be connected to each other. But when we notice that they are influenced by the same planetary configurations we may need to do a rethink.
In this study, researchers from POSTECH and the KRICT created a "3D artificial lung" using three-dimensional (3D) bioprinting technology. This advanced technology uses cells and biomaterials to produce lifelike tissues and organs, reducing the need for animal testing in fields such as regenerative medicine and drug discovery. The "3D artificial lung" created by the researchers consists of three layers-;vascular endothelium, extracellular matrix, and epithelium-; just like the human respiratory tract. Aug 9
A teacher’s influence on a student’s life goes beyond mere information transfer, fostering a lifelong bond that shapes academic, social and emotional growth. By recognizing the importance of this relationship, we can promote a more supportive and nurturing learning environment.

The Mars-Jupiter-Saturn square of August can become significant for a place when it is brought to the angles and this can happen in several ways e.g. (a) in a lunation chart (b) in the chart for an exact planetary aspect (c) an ingress chart etc.
In the first example we have a chart for the Mars-Jupiter conjunction at Pohang, South Korea. In the second example we have a chart for the exact Sun-Mercury conjunction at Srinagar, Kashmir. In both cases the Jupiter-Saturn square is significantly placed on the angles
The zodiacal sign Gemini rules (a) the breath and the respiratory system (b) communication of knowledge hence students and learning. In the first news we hear of the "3D artificial lung" developed in South Korea. The second news is about what constitutes fruitful interaction between teachers and students.
Jupiter in Gemini is both about new ideas that can help us breathe, stay alive and grow as well as another kind of growth that results from the transfer of knowledge from a teacher to his students. We dwell within a common atmosphere, which we continually draw into ourselves, process, and then give back to.
Saturn in Pisces dissolves boundaries, when we are unnecessarily walled off or overprotected. It can be liberating to drop some defenses. Saturn in Pisces may also reveal our disconnection from the physical body and other people, making it urgent to reconnect with the senses, the earth, and the living world. Pisces has an inherent sense of limitlessness, infinite possibilities, a wide range of emotions, and a vast imagination. By expanding our boundaries, Saturn in Pisces can make us more aware of the connectedness of all life. Jupiter, the dispositor of Saturn, as the ruler of Pisces in the innovative air sign Gemini is helping to find better solutions to issues connected with breathing and learning.
