  Venus  - Sandro Botticelli   Solitude can feel like liberation or captivity depending on our mental state.. Jul.9 https://bit.ly/3hvv9KD The best writers   are the ones who give expression to the cosmic energies seeking to manifest .The author of the above article Iskra Fileva teaches   at the University of Colorado, Boulder.     In this post we shall see how her article is an expression of the current   Venus-Saturn   opposition. A chart drawn for the opposition at Boulder has it sharply aligned with the meridian as part of a T-square with Uranus.   Sometimes, being alone allows us to be trapped in our own minds. Negative self-evaluation makes us lonely in our own company. It sours and spoils solitude for us. We cannot enjoy its freedoms. We do not have those freedoms, in fact. The solitude of a self-loather is unfree. It resembles, rather, a relationship with a tyrant that one cannot escape, because the tyrant is in one’s own ...

  Perseus saving Andromeda from Sea Monster Singapore is planning to become the first country to stop counting COVID-19 cases on a daily basis and just treat it like a normal seasonal Flu. The south-east Asian country has recorded just 36 deaths since the start of the pandemic, and officials now want to ditch measures such as counting infection numbers each day.   A blueprint has been laid out by three leading members of Singapore’s Covid-19 taskforce to end 18 months of tough restrictions in order to restore quarantine-free travel and public gatherings. July 5 https://greatgameindia.com/singapore-covid-19-normal-flu/   As in several previous posts, this news is also explainable by the Mars-Saturn-Uranus T-square that is currently active. Here is the chart for the Mars-Saturn opposition drawn for Singapore. Notice   the same Mars-Saturn-Uranus T-square on the angles that we have discussed extensively in previous posts [1][2], where   we saw   examples o...

  Haiti's President Jovenel Moïse has been killed and his wife injured in an attack on their home in the nation's capital, Port-au-Prince. Unidentified gunmen stormed the property at 01:00 local time (05:00 GMT), interim PM Claude Joseph said. https://www.bbc.com/news/world-latin-america-57750358 South Africa's former President Jacob Zuma has handed himself in to police to begin serving a jail sentence for contempt of court. He travelled to a prison near to his home in KwaZulu-Natal province late on Wednesday, his foundation said. https://www.bbc.com/news/world-africa-57758540   Regular readers will be able to see the two news items as expressions of the Mars-Saturn-Uranus T-square energy. Saturn often appears as authority while Mars expresses as anger or rebellion especially when accompanied by Uranus.   When negative,   Saturn suppresses Mars, and Mars wounds Saturn.   As a result Mars-Saturn aspects have a reputation for ruthless, controlling and even bru...

  Praesepe (M44): The Beehive Cluster The US military left Bagram Airfield - its key base in Afghanistan - in the dead of night without notifying the Afghans, the base's new commander said. General Asadullah Kohistani told the BBC that the US left Bagram at 03:00 local time on Friday, and that the Afghan military found out hours late. https://www.bbc.com/news/world-asia-57682290 The Empire is exiting Afghanistan in the most humiliating way possible with the Taliban fast on their heels and throwing out the US-installed government from one district after another even before the Americans leave. It is absolutely glorious. Trump had a deal with the Taliban to leave on May 1st, which caused the Taliban to largely hold back and refrain from offensives that might cause the collective US to change its mind. But when Biden refused to honor the deal the calculation changed and the Taliban sprung into action to apply pressure and show they were not to be trifled with. — Causing the current ...

  A pet lion that was confiscated by Cambodian authorities last month has been returned to his owner after a surprise intervention by the prime minister. The 18-month-old male lion was illegally smuggled into the country by a Chinese national, officials said. The 70kg  lion was seized on 27 June and moved to a rescue centre. Since then the owner, a Chinese man named as Zhai Xinjiang in local media, has made appeals for the return of the lion on social media and in interviews. On Sunday evening, long-time Prime Minister Hun Sen responded to the owner's pleas in a Facebook post. He said he had raised the issue with Agriculture Minister Veng Sakhon and agreed to have the lion returned to his owner if the animal was kept in a "proper cage".

  Is the world about to go through another 2014 Thanksgiving massacre when OPEC collapsed sending the price of oil crashing and unleashing a brief if catastrophic wave of destruction across the US shale sector? And so, markets remain on edge ahead of the next OPEC+ virtual meeting scheduled for Monday at 3 p.m. Vienna time, although Prince Abdulaziz suggested it wasn’t set in stone. https://bit.ly/3dIHVmI The square between Saturn and Uranus in 2021 is  the defining astrological theme of the year. 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 are about to get intense.   The clash between Saturn and Uranus  often leads to  the deconstruction of the status quo, including challenges to the ideals that hold our shared reality together through mutually agreed-upon social contracts.  Mars beg...

  Astronomers may have discovered the smallest and heaviest white dwarf star ever seen, a smoldering ember about the size of our moon but 450,000 times more massive than Earth, a new study finds. White dwarfs are usually about the size of Earth and are the cool, dim cores of dead stars that are left behind after average-size stars have exhausted their fuel and shed their outer layers. https://bit.ly/2Ty2vzs   In 1952 Swiss psychologist Carl Jung published Synchronicity: An Acausal Connecting Principle , one of the most controversial works of his career. In this book, Jung summarized decades of research on the subject of coincidence, concluding that such phenomena hold important secrets about the deeper nature of reality. For the astrologer, coincidence is the visible aspect of a more pervasive framework of design that underlies all experiences.   The White Dwarf ZTF J1901+1458 has been discovered in the constellation Aquila – the Eagle, a predator which has become a s...

  The square between Saturn and Uranus in 2021 is   the defining astrological theme of the year. 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 are about to get intense. Therefore, 2021 can be looked upon as a year of evolution. This may manifest as   releasing something you've outgrown. Some of the manifestations of this transit may include: sudden job and work changes, break-ups of relationships that aren’t committed or stable, and desire for greater freedom from anything that is no longer working. In its evolved expression, Saturn can combine with Uranus bringing   the ability to spontaneously change and to create new frontiers in experience and consciousness. The Saturn-Uranus square shows tension between the changes that need to happen and the obstacles, roadblocks, and resistance to that change. It can b...

  Maybe it's time to admit that the whole "green" energy push is one big farce. Six months after a historic failure in the Texas power grid which collapsed when various "renewable" sources of electricity failed concurrently and dragged down the entire network, California - that liberal utopia powered by renewable power and/or unicorn flatulence - realizes it is about to get Enroned, and has made an urgent request for additional power supplies to avoid blackouts this summer, an extraordinary step after suffering from rolling outages less than a year ago. Jul 1 https://bit.ly/3xgoERA Saturn and Uranus possess contrasting qualities. Quite often   we see the contrast   when   practical   Saturn’s     desire to rely on tradition   comes   into conflict with the accelerated vision of Uranus that resists restrictions and insists on making innovative changes to the status quo. Liberal California is realizing that while green energy may be cheap it ...
