Cancer New Moon

Sun Moon in Cancer, the ruler of New Moon is the Moon itself and Moon in Cancer in its rulership. This suggests to us more focus on: Motherhood, taking care, Water, Ocean fishing and Seafare, as New Moon trine Neptune the issue of water and Ocean should be a focus.  At the psychological level it suggests our sense of belonging, our roots, our link with Family, Ancestors and Nationality. This could apply to personal level and also in a Mundane level. People are asking themselves ‘where do I belong’? In the Mundane level this could explain why people are experiencing racism and the rise in the volume of Far right parties in Politics.

Interesting that I found several news link with Human Rights Activist Malala Yousafzai when Lunation degree is near 12 Cardinal degree. According astro.com that her birthday is  12 July 1997, some astrologer rectifier her birth time  8:30 am. If we use this birth time she will have 11 degrees Libra Moon .   

We will still under the influence of Mars stationary with its focus on war, fire, explosion and survival. The new Moon opposite Pluto also suggests this threat will be intense in July. Saturn and Neptune still form a tight square bringing us worries of financial crisis; the battle between right and left in Politics and the as I mention before the muslim extremists and ISIS are related to the Saturn Neptune aspect.

The Saturn Uranus aspect and Jupiter Pluto aspect suggest government trying to control financial situations, Sun and Venus will sextile Jupiter after New Moon this suggests financial markets will appear a little bit stable for a short time after New Moon as well as the peaceful political deals that could be made during this time.     

Also with this Lunation degree ( near 12 cardinal sign )  Tokyo and New York Stock Exchange experienced technical error, combine with Mercury will out of bound until 9th July and Uranus stationary from 23rd of July, this kind of event should be careful.

Uranus Stationary

By the end of July, Uranus stationary at 24 Aries 30, starting from  23rd July and finishing around 5th August before it goes retrograde.  Outer Planet stationary periods are usually a difficult time, with the Uranus influence, these events could happen suddenly, shockingly, an extreme, a feeling of cut off, radiation and Nuclear are also related to Uranus.

The Uranus is stationary near Altair  (α) Aquila , Ptolemy gives Mars and Jupiter, It confers a bold, confident, valiant, unyielding, ambitious and liberal nature, great and sudden but ephemeral wealth, and a position of command, makes its natives guilty of bloodshed, and gives danger from reptiles. [Robson*, p.135.] Dr. Brady link with risk taking and Military power .

The Countries affected by Stationary Uranus are

ASC/DSC: Argentina, Australia, Israel, Latvia, Romania, Russia, UK, UN

MC/IC: Bangladesh, Croatia, Ecuador, Luxembourg, Nicaragua

Sun: Ireland, Zimbabwe, Bangladesh    

Moon: Egypt, Germany, Nicaragua, Panama, Portugal

New Moon Astromap

According Astromap there areas are more like to have important events

Asia Pacific: Japan, Indonesia, China, India, West Australia 

Europe and Africa: Turkey, Poland, UK, Iceland,  Spain, West France, Slovakia, Hungary, Madagascar, West African coast, South Africa

America: Brazil Paraguay, Uruguay, Argentina, Bolivia, Cuba, Jamaica, Mexico, Central US, Canada, Florida 

Lunation degree trigger events: As new Moon on 12 degree Cancer it will trigger those events which happened during New Moon , Full Moon and Eclipse with near degree in Cardinal signs. I have list recent years events which maybe will develop or have similar events happen during this Lunar Cycle .

6 July Update

This is a important referendum for people in UK and EU and the support of both campaigns are very very close at this moment , we know that since early June the leave campaign are leading in poll however the tragedy of Jo Cox slightly change things.

I read many of analysts from respectful astrologers Mark Cullen, Sharon Knight, Olga Morales, Faye Cossar  and many other astrologers and be very honestly I basically agree the leave have more chance to win and I also want to do one by myself but I am afraid of my personal feeling of support to remain in EU will distort my analyse.  It took me several days to think about this but I finally decide to write it down.

Here is my approach, I first studied UK 18010 chart wit Transit, Second progression, Solar Arc, Aries Ingress Cancer Ingress , Fixed stars and Solar Eclipse. Also study the  chart of 1973 when UK enter EEC with techniques above this will give me some ideas about will we have big change regarding the relationship between UK and EU.

I then studied chart of Treaty of Rome (25th Mar 1957  ) as EU natal chart and also consider maastricht treaty ( 1st Nov 1993 ) as another chart for EU to see if EU going to face something change. This will not suggest UK’s leave or stay however it will describe the change of EU after this vote.

Finally I studied David Cameron’s personal chart with Transit, Second progression, Solar Arc, Solar return, also have quick look Boris Johnson ’s chart to compare.       

1. 1801 Chart

Support for remain in EU

Tr Mars tri Mo ( although Mars itself have a meaning of cut off and independent but it rule 7th represent other countries ) as it form a harmony trine I take it as a gentle negotiation (or black mail ) , not brutal cut off.

Tr Ju and Tr Pl both wide trine Ma , it give support to Mars but only have weak (large orbs) and subtle (Pluto and 12th) influence.

Secondary progression Mo and Sp Asc tri Ve

Solar Arc Ju tri Pl, Sa Ur set Pl (easy the difficult financial situation )

Solar Arc Mars trine Sun, suggest PM gain his power and build up good relationship with other countries with  harmony action.

Asc and Moon both on Fixed sign on Aries ingress chart , Moon in Leo in 7th form a trine with Saturn and Uranus suggest a harmony situation with other countries.

Fixed Stars paran at 23rd Jun 2016 at 7:00

Venus Rising when Regulus is On Nadir orb 00 mins 46 secs –

A creative person who receives honours, or a diplomat

Culminating when Arcturus is Rising orb 01 mins 49 secs –

A leader in the arts or in humanistic politics

Support for leave EU

Tr Pl op Mo ( M.C ruler , Government PM has been challenged , People feel anxious )

Tr Pl con So ( Sun as leader again has been challenged , if So as 11 house ruler it could  explant the Scotland referendum too)

Tr Ur tri Sa ( I.C ruler opposition and land a tendency toward to separation ) support by Tr So Tr Ve square 1801 Uranus. 

Sp So squ Ma , (  the ruler of 11 house against ruler of 7th house )

Sp Mc squ Ma ( public image of against other countries )

Sp Me opp Ve, Sp Ju opp Ve ( Venus rules 1st house has face challenge by 3rd and 6th house ruler Jupiter and 9th 12 ruler Mercury ) ( So ruler of 11 square Mars ruler of 7th  house )

Solar Arc So squ Ma

SA Ve squ Me ,Sa Me con Mo ( Mercury rulers 12 house conjunct Venus Mc ruler which is not a great idea and suggest a self destruction of PM)

SA Ju sq Chiron ( the uncomfortable feeling of historical wound of UK and Continental )

Mars on MC of Aries Ingress chart as Mars rule 2nd and 9th nothing to do with foreigner relationship and Mars has meaning of cut off here, maybe this explain the high volume of leave opinion in public however it trine the Sun ruler 7th. 

Cancer ingress chart have Asc rule Saturn opposite powerful 4th ruler aghast government usually we take 4th as opposition could this also suggest PM’s enemy ( Johnson and Gove)?  Saturn rule both Asc and 12th again another sign of self destruction of PM.

2016 March Solar Eclipse chart has Uranus right on angle this can not be ignore and Saturn on Asc also suggest the rejection , Mercury rule 7th square by Mars ruler IC ( sense of belonging ). 

Fixed Stars paran at 23rd Jun 2016 at 7:00

Alpheratz – Culminating at the Mid-heaven Dr.Brady describe Alpheratz as To see oneself as independent of one’s culture or society.

Setting when Zuben Elgenubi is Culminating ,Manipulating the social order for better or worse

Uranus – Rising when Alhena suggestProtest, parades, meetings and marches

Uranus – Culminating when Spica is On Nadir , The people want to be inspired by an idea, or an action

Pluto -Rising when Menkar is On Nadir, Dramatic events that rock the lives of a large number of people.

Conclusion of 1801 chart studies : 

There is no harmonic aspect in Secondary progression chart suggest the resentful feeling in the country, Solar Arc chart also suggest lots of conflict and discord , my hope is the Harmony aspect in Aries ingress chart toward to Sun ( rules 7th in Aries ingress chart ) suggest no huge conflict with other countries. Again I should be very careful about this as I am mainly support remain and maybe I weigh a bit more on the Aries ingress chart.    The transit (include Solar Eclipse and Ingress charts ) suggest environment and global situation build up tension and support leaving EU. The Fixed stars paran also give some idea of dramatic change. Although I support remind but it looks like PM and the remain campaign lead by him are not in favour.

2. 1973 UK enter EEC chart

I studied this chart as a relationship between UK and EU and I took whole chart as a relationship deal and see any disharmony signs in Transit Progression as deal break factors, also I took 7th house in this chart as the relationship itself rather than other countries.   

 

This chart it self have Pluto in Libra on Asc, Chiro in 7th . I will not consider Mars as a sign of cut off as it rule 7th but maybe  hard aspect from Uranus are more like the separation. The trine between Venus and Chiron in 7th and Moon tight conjunct Mars Neptune in Sagittarius are suggest   the dream and idea to be bigger. Of course the Sun square by Chiron and Pluto are like what “ leave campaign “  said we lost control of our own country. Sun conjunct Jupiter look nice but a Jupiter in fall make this relationship  like a down-grade deal, people maybe gave too much hope (Jupiter) and expect in better future (So rule 11th ) from neighbour help each other (Jupiter rule 3rd). 

The only thing I like in this chart is the Mars Jupiter mutual reception although there is no traditional aspect but a semi square this suggest the huge effort EU (include UK) paid to maintain stable.

Support for remain in EU

Tr Jupiter trine Jupiter

Tr Saturn trine Venus  ( protect the deal )

Sp Mo in Cancer, Sp Mars in Capricorn (although there is tension suggested by opposition between Mo-Ma for a while however it is out of orb now )

Sp So set Mercury

SA Ve set Mo, SA So set Me, SA Ve sext Ma , SA Pl sxt Ju, Sa Ma con N.Node Sa Ma con Ju 

SE New Moon sex Jup, Se Ma con Mo,Se Ju tri Ju

Support for leave EU

Transit :

Tr Pluto conjunct N.Node and Jupiter, Tr pl square Chiron  a deal breaker 

Tr Chiron square Mercury , Tr Sa app Sa, Tr Ur opp Ur , Tr Ne sq Ne

Tr Uranus trine Mercury  Tr Neptune square Venus

Sp Mercury square Neptune  (confused)

All the planets on SA chart  semi square 1973 chart Planets

SE New Moon sq Sa , SE Ur tri Ve, SE Pl con Ju, Se Ju squ Ve, Se Sa con Ve

Conclusion of 1973 chart studies : 

As I was born on 1973 I know this year could be taught as most transit form hard aspect to Natal chart and this is 42 year for UK entry EU therefore an inevitable midlife crisis for this relationship could be expected , sounds like this relationship have to be reconsider again. Again the Transit suggest tendency to leave but Solar Arc and Secondary progression are suggest easier situation.

3. Treaty of Rome 25 Mar 1957

  

I use Treaty of Rome as EU natal chart as this is very beginning point of EU , this chart have exaltation Sun sextile Moon . Exaltation Venus conjunct Sun (non-trastional), Sun trine Mars and Neptune trine Pluto . Uranus trine Sun in 6house , Saturn trine Mercury near Dsc , We can see the clear idea of this chart , Treaty establishing the European Economic Community, to create a common market of goods, workers, services and capital within the EEC’s member states

base on the  European Coal and Steel Community (6th house ) .

I will not see the transit progression and direction of this chart as the factor of leave of remain of UK but only the current situation of EU altogether with chart of Maastricht treaty.   

In the transit chart Transit Chiron conjunct Venus ( Asc ruler ), Tr Saturn Opp Mars , Tr Pluto conjunct IC as the basic challenges to EU and a danger sign of reform (Pluto on IC )  however 7 house ruler Mars trine Asc ruler Venus suggest the idea of common market still be agreed by member countries.   

The Secondary progression chart has Mars ON MC this is not a sign for break as Mars rule Dsc of this treaty as the deal and relationship , Sp Moon on 27 Pisces conjunct Vensu another good sign for EU stay together.

The Solar Arc in another way suggest some change , the SA Mars conjunct Uranus this suggest a change action ( break up ).  SA Mars opposition Moon the management of EU has been criticised , SA Venus square Pluto and SA Neptune square Venus , SaMars square Neptune all strongly suggest a division inside of EU.

Transit as current situation is difficult , SP suggest  EU people still tie by feeling but Solar Arc suggest the action are confused and divided.

4. Maastricht treaty

This is basic chart for EU and has more influence of EU current situation and EU expansion also UK referendum.

  

The Asc on 14 Gemini Moon on 3 Gemini conjunct Node. Moon square Chiron , Mars conjunct Pluto and Uranus conjunct Neptune both square Venus , both Neptune Uranus also sextile Mercury are major themes of this chart. The Uranus Neptune conjunct suggest an idea to be bigger then before for something good. There is also historical idea as great united states of European behind this chart present by Moon Chiron square in 12th and 4th.

In Transit we can see the grand cross hit Maastricht treaty quit hard . Acc square by Neptune Jupiter and opposite by Saturn on Dsc. Transit Pluto on Ur Ne, the great revolutionary idea , the unrealistic dreams face the most crucial reality (Pluto in Capricorn) . Transit Mars square Saturn suggest the criticism on EU structure.      

Transit Pluto sextile Mercury (Asc ruler) and SP Pluto conjunct chart ruler suggest the power struggle and lock of clarity  in EU has been point out and the request of reform. SA Uranus and Neptune conjunct MC remind people the good intention of this great idea. However SA Sun soon will form a semi square with Neptune and Urnanus suggest we realise how difficult to carry these great ideas.   

David Cameron

Another way to analyse this question is check David Cameron’s chart as He represent campaign of  stay in EU and will face huge challenge from Boris Johnson, if the result of referendum is leave he have big change to face party leader challenge and lost his PM position. R

Cameron has  Libra ascendent Sun and Venus both in Libra.

Transit 

Factors that suggest Stay in Power

Tr Saturn trine Moon (MC ruler )

Tr Pluto trine Pluto

Tr Jupiter conjunct Pluto

Tr Mars trine Saturn

Tr Mars sextile Uranus

SE Mc on  Sun

SR Venus (ruler oh MC and Asc ruler of Natal chart ) on 0 Virgo near Regulus

SR Jupiter on 12 Virgo conjunct Zosma (Victim or Survivor ?)

Factors that Change and Challenge of life

Tr Pluto tight square Sun

Tr Chiron conjunct Chiron and Saturn

Tr Node conjunct Pluto

Tr Mars conjunct Neptune

Tr Mars square Mars

Tr Mars semi square Venus

Sp Moon semi square Chiron

SA Venus square Mars

SA Mercury square Saturn

SA Jupiter conjunct Uranus (Jupiter rule 6th lower position and daily routine going to change )

Eclipse New Moon on his Chiron

Eclipse Mars square Mo ( Mc Ruler )

Eclipse Mars square Venus ( Chart ruler )

Eclipse Mars conjunct Saturn

Eclipse Jupiter opposite Chiron

Solar return (SR) Venus near Asc ( Venus in Virgo fall ) square by Saturn (7th ruler)

SR Mars in Virgo conjunct Venus Moo and Jupiter square by Mars and opposite by Neptune

SR Sun in 3rd in Libra ( fall ) challenge by Uranus and suggest big change in career.

SR Jupiter on 12 Virgo conjunct Zosma (Victim or Survivor ?)

Many factor suggest PM going to have hard time and lots of change, I don’t know if I give hope to SR Venus fall but conjunct Regulus is too naive .   

Boris Johnson 

Compare with Cameron Boris Johnson have little bit more luck .

Transit Jupiter trine Natal Jupiter (Mc ruler) sextile Neptune (Mc ruler) conjunct Pluto

Transit Pluto trine Jupiter.

SP Mercury Trine Jupiter sextile Neptune

SP Mars sextile Uranus

SA MOON opp Mercury SA Venus sextile Mercury

SA Jupiter trine Saturn

SA Neptune sextile Satun

the things he need careful is

Transit Saturn square Pluto Transit Uranus opposite Moon, Transit Jupiter opposite Chiron

SA Pluto conjunct Moon

SR Mars near Dsc , LoY saturn in 7 conjunct Moon.

Algol is on Ascendent (traditional view )

Compare with similar situation EEC referendum 1975

Than year Transit Pluto is right on 1801 Asc and  Solar Arc Moon trine Mars (7th ruler) , Solar Arc Neptune trine 1801 Sun (11th ruler ), Solar Arc Sun square Uranus and trine Pluto.

1975 Harold Wilson win the referendum of stay in EU. He has SP Venus right on Asc and SA Asc sxt Venus SA Saturn sxt Saturn , Solar Return chart has Sun conjunct Asc, SR  Mars trine Pluto  . Mercury as LoY sextile Venus ( although Detriment in Aries very little help) However lots of harmony aspect the  in Soar Arc help him stays PM but he resign at 1976 with health concern. 

That day Fixed stars paran are

Bellatrix – Rising at the Ascendant orb 03 mins 32 secs –

A life full of struggle but also success, a battler

Pollux – Rising at the Ascendant orb 01 mins 59 secs –

Using words and language to seek truth, however painful

Sun – Rising when Menkar is Rising suggest Great success or great loss; to be a pawn in the winds of change (Great success in this case)

Moon – Rising when Vega is Culminating A compassionate leader, someone who cares – Circumpolar

Venus – Rising when Rigel is Rising It is favorable and similar to Jupiter and Mars (Arising and lying hidden).

Opening of poll chart

As Mark Cullen and other traditional astrologers apply Bonatti’s battle field chart technique with  opening of poll chart. I really interesting and enjoy reading this . I have to be very honest to say, if anything  in  astrology suggest 50-50 and many analyses can not give me a clear direction.

This chart could be last draw for me to judge the favour is in “ leave “ company .

As 1975 remain campaign (Government so as 1st house) win , we can see 7 house ruler caught in 1st house and 1st house ruler conjunct with Jupiter in 11th. For 2016 EU referendum table turned, 1st ruler will be in 7th without any major aspect.    

more about this please ready Mark Cullen ’s article

Every year in June when the sun arrives at its furthest point from the celestial equator in the northern hemisphere, the longest day of the year marks the start of Summer in northern hemisphere (and winter in the  southern hemisphere). As the longest day, the Summer Solstice has an important meaning in many different cultures. In Britain and northern Europe Midsummer Day (24th June in UK) is related to the summer solstice,  We can still see Pagan worship of the Sun rise at stonehenge on this day.  In ancient China, the summer solstice was an official holiday and there is records of Ladies giving fans and sachets to each other as gifts.  Fans to use for chills and sachets to work against flies and bugs.  Some researchers believe that the famous dragon boat festival in East Asia (Japan, Taiwan, Laos and China)  are also related to the Summer Solstice.

For astrologers, the Summer Solstice is an important day as the Sun reaches the highest point in northern hemisphere and is going to change direction towards the South.  The word solstice comes from the Latin, solstitium , sol = sun and stit =  stationary.

For the Solstice in June,  the Sun stops going further North and moves towards the South. For Astrologers who use tropical zodiac, Sun moves into Cancer on this day. 

 pic from Nasa website: http://scijinks.jpl.nasa.gov/solstice/

Although astrologers influence is not as powerful as before, in the Mundane events, we can still see the remains of the influence on the World Map.  The Solstice happens because Earth tilts  at 23° 26’, this make us believe the sun is traveling up and down (North and South) around Equator.  During the Summer Solstice, the Sun reaches 23° 26’  North and stops going further North.  Our ancestors call this line on the latitude “Tropic of Cancer “.  Algeria, Egypt, India, Taiwan, China, Mexico and Bahamas are the countries near this latitude.

Astrologers believe that the four cardinal signs are like milestones on the zodiac, to mark seasonal change. Aries ingress for the Spring in the Northern Hemisphere, Cancer ingress for Summer, Libra ingress for Autumn and Capricorn ingress suggests the beginning of Winter in Northern Hemisphere and it is start of Summer for the Southern Hemisphere.

As we believe that Sun move into Cardinal sign as a beginning point of season, Mundane astrologers  also use it to forecast seasonal events usually combined with other techniques such as Eclipses, Lunation,  Country’s natal chart (and any transit, progression ) and  planetary synod circles.

Full moon Cancer ingress

This year, Cancer ingress of the Sun happens on 20 June 2016 at 22:34 UT (23:34 BST). It is a Full Moon so this is a season where we can witness the results of our past achievements. It is also a testing moment for relationships and cooperation between different countries and organisations. The Sun moves into Cancer opposite its ruler, the  Moon, in Capricorn which suggests division between people and strong disappointment of leadership in many countries and organisations.

Jupiter, Saturn, Neptune and Mercury form a grand cross suggesting conflict will continue and tension will increase. US and Australia still have elections going on. UK and EU have to build a better relationship and deal with the refugee crisis. The threat of financial crisis is building up and many bankers and economists are afraid to point them out. 

Meanwhile there are other aspects working together with this grand cross, Jupiter trine Pluto and Saturn trine with Uranus, both aspect in one way build up  the confidence of the financial market but also support the super rich continuing to dominate our life by influencing politicians with their patronage. For example, in the US presidential nomination race for the Democrat party, some supporter are really worried about Hillary Clinton and the big money behind her.  As we are in the end of the Uranus Pluto cycle, this is part of process where we can change our society toward better future. The problem is: are we going to do this gently or violently? As Jupiter trine Pluto and Saturn trine Uranus I believe the gentle way is more popular at the moment.      

As Full moon on the Cancer Ingress day, Where the Sun-Moon axis  locate suggest the area of focus.

EU and UK : This area has Full Moon on 5th-11th Axis, this suggest Sport, Game, Competition, Entreatment, show business, Birth rate, issues around Children, Social benefit, Charities, House of Lords, Local government against State or divisions in the Cabinet.  Which we already see happening and this Full moon on solstice will make it more obvious.  Moon in Capricorn in its Full, this suggests people have little power and are dominated by government or feelings of fear, as Saturn near the MC and Lord of 8th house Venus conjunct the Sun.

It does not matter if the UK votes for leave or not,  European countries still have to stay together to find solutions for the refugee crisis and the threat from terrorists, the growing fear and need for security and protection may increase the volume of extreme right-wing voices.       

US and Canada:US and Canada have Sun Moon Axis near 2-8 and Jupiter are very close to MC. There is uncertainty about the Economic and Political future but the optimistic view keeps people up.  Government will focus on finance and resources this summer, may be instability in the rest of the world will make the US dollar much stronger until the bubble bursts.

Asian Pacific areas are more likely to focus on border disputes or any land problems (earthquake or landslide) as the Lord of 4th conjunct the Sun in solstice. Problems in the Public heath system, epidemics, police force and labor conflict as most countries have Full moon axis near 6-12 axis. Australia has Pluto rule 4th on Descendent , apart from problems of Land and House, this could also suggest political tension as near the election, also we can expect fear and unpleasant events during this season.

Important dates:

Here is few dates I will suggest people and organisation do extra careful in certain area of life. 

13-30 June Venus out of Bound: Art, Love, female affairs could be focus of news.  Markets go crazy as we already see the stock market has fallen since early June. The Orlando shooting brings out the inequality of LGBTQ group, and UK has seen a female MP being shot dead during this time.

28th June to 9th July Mercury out of Bound: Student, Transport, information could be the focus in News.

19 June – 11 July and 8th August  – 31st October:19 June – 11 July  Mars Stationary 23 Scorpion and 8th August  – 31st October Mars out of Bound: conflict and violence levels will going up globally.    

23 July – 5th Aug Uranus stationary on 24 Aries : another extremely  unsettled time, events happening during this time could be very shocking, happening suddenly with no way to escape.     

10-17 August Saturn stationary on 9 Sagittarius as it happens together with Mars out of Bound the suggests increasing levels of violence and conflict, Saturn is stationary and suggests authority and right wing parties will gain some power and support during this time.

As Summer solstice is a part of the Mundane forecasting skill I will always take other techniques into account a well. Solar Eclipse and Country chart and leader’s birth chart  would be also important.  For example, for UK, Saturn is on the angle in both March 2016 Solar Eclipse chart and Cancer Ingress chart this suggests the Saturnian experience of holding back, decreasing, depression would certainly appear for this summer. For US, as Jupiter and Chiron near MC/IC in the Cancer ingress chart,  this will trigger Jupiter and Chiron ’s influence as both Planets are opposite and conjunct with Solar Eclipse New Moon. For China it would be repeat of 6-12 houses issues and also beware of violent events or conflicts with other countries, as Mars on the Descent of Eclipse chart and Pluto on the Descent of Cancer Ingress chart.

Astromap

Another technique I usually use is Astromap , The astromap on the 2016 Cancer Ingress  where outer planets pass are more likely to have important event or crisis happen .

Cancer Ingress Astromap

Asia: Malaysia, Singapore, Indonesia, Myanmar, Laos, Thailand, Vietnam,  Philippine, Taiwan, South East China, South Japan, North East India, Iran, Saudi Arabia, Syria, South of Australia (VIC TAS)

Europe and Africa: Turkey, France, Germany, Austria, Italy, Poland, Croatia, Senegal, Canary islands, Kenya, Somalia, Ethiopia.

America: North west States of US, Vancouver, Texas (Houston), Mississippi, Arkansas, Missouri, Illinois (Chicago ), New York , New Jersey, Pennsylvania

Mexico most Central and South America countries …

  

Again there are still influence of the Solar Eclipse in March so I also list those areas and add stars if it has been influenced by both Solar Eclipse and Cancer Ingress chart.

I mark out the areas have affected by both Cancer Ingress 2016 and March 2016 Solar Eclipse

photo from CNN website http://edition.cnn.com/2016/06/12/us/orlando-nightclub-shooting/

This tragedy happened in Orlando gay club – Pulse ( Florida) ,  at 2:02am 12 June 2016, according report 50 killed and 53 injured. It is most deadliest mass shooting in US history. Be a part of LGBTI communities I am deeply shocking about this event and feel sorry for people who lost their life their loved one in this event. This is a terrorist attack aim on LGBTI communities, hate crime doesn’t matter what religion is behind and I still believe there is religious who believe in love and equal right .  

The Event chart has Chiron close to Ascendent and trine Mars , I was very concern about Chiron Mars combination in the New Moon chart, several important violence attack does happened when Chiron contact with Mars, usually the hard aspect but this time Chiron form a tight trine with Mars. We know there is a grand cross on New Moon chart of 5th June , this grand cross from by Sun Moon Venus Jupiter Saturn Neptune. The Saturn Neptune are very interesting linking with lots of extremism religious crisis.   

The first time I heard about this attract I draw the event chart and Eclipse chart but nothing stand out but Uranus on the angle in the both Solar and Lunar Eclipse. This could related to the shocking and soddenly separation also Uranus has been consider as a symbol of homosexuality and the place has been attacked is a gay club.

 

When I double check and correct the time to 2:02 am theAscendent change from 29 Pisces to 00 Arise , this remind me something must link with Aries ingress and we find Mars is exact conjunct the Ascendent of  Aries ingress chart . We can see in the Astromap that Mars is over Orlando on the Aries Ingress chart .

The Perpetrator Omar Mir Seddique Mateen was boron in New York in November 16, 1986 time unknown, it will surprise you when you see the synastry between Mr Mateen and Event chart, His Sun conjunct transit Mars, his Mars in 24 Aquarius square his natal Sun and square Transit Mars, His Chiron conjunct transit Sun , and it is his Saturn return this year. As time Unknow I don’t want to use this Moon ( opposite his Mars and conjunct Algol. only if he was boron on Midday)    

We know one of strange function in Astromap is that both ACG lines and Local Space lines can relate one place to another.  We know Mateen was born in New York and the Saturn LS event chart toward to New York from Orlando, Uranus LS line from New Moon chart also goes to New York. 

Personally I don’t like to emphasis about Mr.Mateen’s race background but it is very strange  that astromap, both Lines link from Orland to New York also pass by Afghanistan where his parents from as in the media he has been indicate as Afghanistan descent.

Fixed Satrs Parans

I try to add a little bit Fixed star parans on the 12 Jun 2016 in Orlando

Menkar as Heliacal star

Algol is on rising when Pluto is Culminating ( on Mc)

Aldebaran is rising when Sun is rising

Antares is on Nadir when Moon is  Culminating ( on Mc)

Menkar is rising when mars is setting

for Mr Mateen both his Sun and Moon were parans with Menkar , Saturn on Nadir when Aldebaran is culminating.

It looks like Menkar (α) Cetus play an important role here , this fixed star locate on Cetus’s ( Sea monster ) mouth  , Ptolemy given Saturn nature and some astrologer does give Mars nature it also associated with Violence.

Venus out of Bound

 We all human and we do care each other , the only thing we can do is shows your humanity and love to each other .That is maybe what we can do for this event when it happened after Venus out of Bound.

Update on 14 June 2016

Sad story, just saw  news about Mr Mateen did use Gay date app and he went to ” Pulse” several times and we know this maybe true that he have to hide his sexuality at home because of family and religion.

We should ask what made him doest this ? His usually bitch about his father … He even has visited Pulse several times. He got annoyed by two men kissing.

The fundamental cause of this tragedy is not extremism nor Muslim,This is a tragedy about people who have issue to accept their own sexuality. This is a one of tragedies that  people suffering from the discrimination because of their sexuality. Is about how could we offer better environment to support them. We know we can change this by open our arms and treat each other with respect.   

Again Venus is out of bound , love is out of control , maybe is is a best time to worship Venus by recognise “ Love “ is me, and I am love.

June 2016 could be a hectic month for everyone as Sun, Moon, Venus, Jupiter, Saturn and Neptune form a Mutable grand cross on the New Moon chart, even though this Grand Cross will disappear after one week, its influence, like a solid imprint on the ground, will last for whole month (lunar cycle). The New Moon chart gives astrologers an idea of what is going to happen this coming lunar cycle.  In one way we can predict what type events are going to happen, and what we will experience.  In another way we can adapt and prepare for what’s come up.

Moon Wobble and Neptune Mars stationary: Unstable situation

As the Sun square Nodal axis at this moment, it is Moon wobble time between 24th May to 14th June and we usually observe disasters during this time. Serious loss will happen if there is other astrological indication suggesting unstable situations happening during Moon Wobble, such as Outer planets stationary.  Neptune will turn Retrograde in June and will be stationary between 11th – 16th June at 12 degrees of Pisces.  These days could be crucial times, important events and disasters are more likely happen during this period.  Neptune rules the Sea, Fog, Smog, Gas, Air and water, pollution, Viruses, Epidemics, Chemistry and Drugs. It also related to the film industry and financial markets. ( Malaysia and Indonesia both have Transit Neptune Stationary on MC )

Mars will turn direct at 23 degrees Scorpio in the end of June. It will appear stationary between 18 June to 11th of July.  Mars represents dry and hot climates, a heatwave or explosion may cause some problem, Mars also represents riots, robbery, violence and War.  As Mars trine Chiron the symbol of wounds and healing in the New Moon chart, this double whammy suggests  Mars-type events are more like to be observed during these dates.    ( Poland has Mars Stationary on MC and Transit  Pluto on Asc )

Between 13th and 30th of June Venus will cross the boundary of the Zodiac to become out of bound. When a planet is out of bound, this suggests something related to this planet could be out of control and surprise us.  We usually observe crazy trading during Venus out of bound, as Venus represents Value and Art.  Therefore some surprise news may come from Art investment.

Mutable Grand Cross in June 2016

Sun, Moon, Venus, Jupiter, Saturn and Neptune form a Mutable Grand cross in the new moon chart.

A mutable grand cross suggests a highly uncertain view of the future, like we are at a crossroad and don’t know which way to go.  There are so many choices and  there are so many rumours. US presidential candidate Donald Trump is a great example, it  does not matter whether you like him or hate him, he changes quickly to adapt to a situation and say what people want to hear.  One moment he can support Transgender rights, next moment, when facing a  Christian state, he will tell you that you should go to the toilet according your biological sexual identity. He wants to build a wall between the US and Mexico and kick out all illegal migrants from Latin america, then a few weeks ago we saw him tweet  “Love Taco “.  His Sun and Moon are both in Mutable sign Gemini and Sagittarius and he was born on the day of a Lunar Eclipse. I am not predicting whether he going to win the election or not I, just point out how he represents the current outer planets configuration.

If we examine the planets involved in this grand cross we can understand the areas where we should be careful. The Sun suggests leaders and celebrities.  During this time they are representing different futures that we are going to choose.  What kind of society do you want to live in, for example in US:  Dramatic Trump style; Socialist Sanders style; or old elite Clinton style. While in the UK there is a referendum for staying in or leaving the EU.  As Neptune involves so many celebrities it could confuse or mislead others or they may become victims for what they stand for.

The Moon could represent the common people, who will be forced to choose sides. Do not forget that the Moon also represents Female (together with Venus) suggesting a female person could be a Scapegoat during this lunar cycle. The Moon represents agriculture and both the Moon and Neptune represent the Ocean.  Agriculture and fisheries businesses will also face huge challenges.  Jupiter represents higher education and airline businesses we can expecting some loss, closure and confusion in these areas. Jupiter Saturn aspect suggests we are on the turning point of social development and Venus, Jupiter and Neptune all have the flavour of generosity, how do we help each other under the critical economic conditions?  How do we share limited resource in this world? Social benefit policies, wealth inequality, migrant and refugee issues will be focussed on by the media during this month.

Update : Mutable signs or Common signs  ( 4 Jun 2016 )

Mutable signs maybe suggest that we are wondering where to go? However, could we do more ? Make more options rather than to be compelled ? No one tell us the only ways is East or West. Could we go North East or South West ?

That make me think about what Guido Bonatti said about Mutable sign “ Indeed, signs are called “ common,” because if the Sun were to enter one of those signs, the weather become common, nor is it truly called fixed, nor movable, but it participates with each, namely with the fixed and the movable. Whence part of the weather belongs to one, and part of other.

There for we maybe need to go to find more possibility. If only choice is Hillary VS Trump,  we should make them listen what people said, if UK choose leave EU what we could do to keep what EU used to benefit us in the human right and equality? I am just thinking, Is there another way to benefit both side…

Another idea Jump out when I look the New Moon chart , if we look the New Moon chart , Mercury is SUN MOON Dispositor in the New Moon chart, look Mercury’s position , 20 degrees Taurus , it is 2 degrees away from Jupiter Saturn conjunction in 2000 (22 degrees Taurus ) .

This is clear enough , this Mutable ground cross in New Moon chart suggest we are in ending part of  Jupiter Saturn cycle and what we observed ( to See : Sun) at this time is guiding us go to exam the choice we made in 2000 when Jupiter conjunct Saturn in Taurus. If our choice is “ Money , Material world , Material orientation “ and look what we have now , Super Rich , Plutocracy , if we continue like this the things we going to eat is bank note , coins and bank statement .  It time to make some change and don’t let other do it for you .

“Ladies and gentlemen, the Captain has turned on the fasten seat belt sign. We are now crossing a zone of turbulence. Please return your seats and keep your seat belts fastened. Thank you.”

 

Moon Wobble 
If you are familiar with lunation forecasting or Eclipse study, you will understand why I give such a warning, because between 24th May to 14th June we are going through Moon wobble period. This is usually the moment that important political and economical events take place. During this time the Sun will, step by step, get closer to forming a tight square to the Nodal axis and usually at this moment the Sun will be close to the area of zodiac where it will trigger Solar and Lunar Eclipse chart.

Beware that the next New Moon in 14 Gemini will trigger 2016 March Solar Eclipse as this Solar Eclipse degrees on 18 Pisces, also as it is on Mutable signs, timing and event styles are usually unpredictable, therefore I prefer give an early warning from now, especially as few bad financial indicators are happening this two weeks, there is Mercury Stationary (22 May),   the Moon wobble and of course The Jupiter Saturn Neptune T-square  happens at the same time.

 

Important Aspect for next two weeks :Jupiter Saturn waning square and Saturn Neptune waning square

As both financial indicators aspect, Jupiter-Saturn and Saturn-Neptune, are in the ending of their cycles , this usually causes upheaval in the world economy and it will last for one or two years. In this case please be very careful when you take any financial risks.
This idea comes from the planetary synod cycles. For humanistic astrologers, the cycle begins when two planet conjunct (like new moon). After conjunction, the faster planet moves away and there comes a waxing moon period like first semi-square (for example: crescent Moon) and first square (like first quarter Moon when Moon 90 degrees away from the Sun, after New Moon ). Then Opposition. This is waxing period and suggests development and growing time. After opposition, like the Sun Moon relationship after full Moon comes a time of decreasing the light, like waning Moon, then the square happens after opposition is most crucial timing as this cycle begins to end.

 

Jupiter represents ideas and development, Saturn is about structure and realisation of ideas. This pair of Planets relates to our social development. Jupiter-Saturn hard aspect also suggests we are at a turning point of our social development plan. The current Jupiter Saturn cycle began in 2000 and for the last 15 years we constructed our society in a materialistic way, as Jupiter-Saturn conjuncts in Taurus in 2000.

Now we are facing new challenges. Doesn’t money mean everything? How will our society develop now? How could 1% of the population end up owning a very large portion of economic wealth on the world, while the other 99% hold much less? When Jupiter forms a square with Saturn before the next conjunction in 2020 we need to think about these questions. Do you still want to live like this? If not, what do you have to do? Keep an eye on what happens in the next five years as we will notice some social development plans are not going to work. We have to abandon those projects which are out of date and no longer work, in order to give space for new projects to develop.

 

Mars semi-square Pluto : crisis and Oil Price 

Mars semi-square Pluto: as we expected, the oil price began to change from 17th May, the day Mars started to form a semi-square with Pluto. This could suggest another dramatic change on 20-22 May.  We also heard about the Egypt Air airplane crash on 19 May. Mars Pluto aspect usually brings us crises to remind us what is the meaning of life for you.

During this full moon we also have Sun Mars opposition, this suggests a Leadership challenge could be important news in the media for the next two weeks, from political to business spheres.

Lunar Family
This full moon is related to
22 Nov 2014 New Moon and the first quarter Moon in 22 Aug 2015. Therefore things happening between
22 Nov 2014 -21 Dec 2014 and 22-29 Aug 2015 could continue develop for the next two weeks. The oil price dramatically dropped on 28 Nov 2014; A riot broke out because of the shooting of Michael Brown; Sydney hostage crisis cause; Bird flu in Europe, US build normal ration with Cuba. The Europe migrant crisis in 2015 August. Therefore we can also expect these events will have another change when the last quarter Moon happens on 18 Feb 2017.
This Full moon could also trigger
2012 May Solar Eclipse, Eclipse and things happen near that time may come back into our life as a result or re-examination.

Astromap and Geodetic map 

Full Moon astromap suggests following country are more affected by major change
Australia, UK, France , Ireland, Brazil, , Mexico, West Coast of US, Iran, Afghanistan , Taiwan , China

The Geodetic map suggests following countries and area should be careful too
New England area in US South California, Hawaii , Alaska , Chile , Peru Ecuador and Colombia ,Greece Spain , Algeria, India, Pakistan, Nepal, Bangladesh, Vietnam, Malaysia, Indonesia area and New Zealand.

 

 

Last quarter Moon
Last quarter Moon happen on 29 May 2016 at 8 degree Gemini-Pisces. triggering 2014 March event and 2014 June and possibly the week 2-9 Sep 2014 and week of 25Feb-3 Mar 2015.

Sun Square Jupiter opposite Saturn Neptune , in one way the Sun triggers the important political and financial events, in another way we notice there are some things that that we can no longer demand and we should let go of fantasy and dreams. This could also happen when famous people delude others with rumour.

From the chart we see as Sun join the outer planets square make a mutable grand cross, this could suggest something more unstable and unsettle in the world political situation.   Interesting UK have these planets on the angles when last quarter Moon happened.
Finally, be very very careful between between 24th May to 14th June , things could get very bumpy during this time.

I like Eurovision, an occasion that I can hear different songs from different talented singers and this event give us a chance to see different countries present their cultures and creativities. Be an astrologer I like the relation between the position of transiting Jupiter on the Gran final contest chart. Not only Jupiter represent social develop, party , joy and glory, Jupiter is also a symbol of pop culture and media , how we see the world.

Jupiter sing and Winner songs

I started to notice these when the Finish  hard rock and heavy metal Group Lordi won in 2006,  they are famous about  wearing monster masks and using horror elements , the moment they won Jupiter was on Scorpio, a sign related to horror .     

Next year Serbia singer Marija Šerifovic won the contest with a song call Molitva , what does that mean ? “ Prayer “ Where to find a sing better then Sagittarius link with this song?  Jupiter was in Sagittarius in 12 May 2007. When Russia won in 2008 Jupiter was in Capricorn .. no need to say that year was disaster of Eurovision, people were arguing about political vote.

Most amazing relation between chart and winner is 2014 when drag singer Conchita Wurst won the contest, Jupiter in Cancer Exaltation and what is winning song ? “ Rise Like a Phoenix “ and what doest ” Exaltaiton ” mean ? Rise to highest position

The opening of 2014 Contest have Saturn opposite Sun , Venus in Aries opposite Mars in Libra with “ Mutual reception “  was very close to MC/IC axis by the time they announce the winner, could this mutual reception represent a beard lady or long hair Male in a dress?   And last year Sweden won the contest with song call “ Heroes” I don’t need to remind you that Jupiter was in Leo last year (May 2015).

Eurovision 2016 and 1944 Deportation of the Crimean Tatars

This year ’s eurovison opening chart we have, Scorpio rising , Moon conjunct Jupiter and North Node in Virgo opposite Neptune .  If we look the Astromap from this chart , Saturn As line go through Ukraine to Moscow (very interesting) but Local space Mercury and Venus lines from Stockholm go to Ukraine where the winer Jamala from.

As Jupiter in Virgo , I was waiting for a girly or earthy song to win. It could be “ Money money money” or “ Like a virgin “ before the contest started, but I did not get that much Virgo flavour during this contest, part from much of  the participate were stood on the stage sang their song alone without dancer, fire or guinea pig wheel. However this is the best musical performance I ever seen , they were all great. Maybe this refer to hard working training of Virgo character. I have difficult to relate the winning song 1944 to Jupiter in Virgo . I almost gave up but next day I ask myself , why 1944 ?

1944 Deportation of the Crimean Tatars

Ukraine singer Jamala won the 2016 Eurovision song contest with a song name 1944, I then read the story about this song and realised there are big argument about this song as Russia is not happy with the story behind this Song “Deportation of the Crimean Tatars “ . Use her voice Jamala told us the story about what’s   happen between 18-20 May 1944. It is a collective punishment ordered by Stalin for the Crimean Tatars collaboration with the Nazi occupation regime in Taurida Subdistrict during 1942–1943. During this period 200,000 crimean has been remove from their homeland and cause more than 100,000 deportees die in starvation or disease as a direct result of deportation.

Here is Lyrics

When strangers are coming…

They come to your house,

They kill you all

and say,

We’re not guilty

not guilty.

We could build a future

Where people are free

to live and love.

The happiest time.

Where is your heart?

Humanity rise.

You think you are gods

But everyone dies.

“Yaşlığıma toyalmadım, ooh

Men bu yerde yaşalmadım

Yaşlığıma toyalmadım

Men bu yerde yaşalmadım

“I couldn’t get enough of my youth

I couldn’t grow old here

I couldn’t get enough of my motherland”.

• 1944 Jamala

Saros cycle, the reason 1944 link with 2016

Does this mean much virgo for you ? Not for me , so far.

Let us back to Astrology what’s the relation between today and 1944 ? It is 72 years away , this directly leading us to thing about Nadal cycles ,yes both 1944 and 2016 are belong to same  Saros cycle, according Dr Bernadette Brady this is S.S 18 south , as an Mundane astrologerI am not a surprise the story of Deportation of the Crimean Tatars has been jump on the important musical event this year if both year belong to same Saros cycle. Usually events will have new develops when same saros cycles’ Eclipse happen again.   

The character of this Eclipse family are ending or separation however the pain of the separation leading to a positive outcomes. What a beautiful description, and it does fit in Jamala’s story.

Here is the chart of Deportation of Crimean Tatars , I use Sun rise chart as event happen form the early morning. We have Saturn square Neptune (Same as now ) we have Uranus sextile Pluto (We have Uranus Square pluto ) Uranus in Gemini square Chiron in Virgo Mars conjunct Node.

That year Solar Eclipse was occurred 25th Jan 1944 if we draw a chart form Sevastopol we will see the Sun Moon conjunct in 4 Aquarius and opposite Pluto in 6 Leo, Pluto conjunct south Node and Ascendent, Mars in 6 degree Gemini conjunct Uranus, Saturn in 20 Gemini square Chiron in Virgo.

Now if we make a bi wheel between Eurovision final and Deportation on 1944 , you will surprise find out Venus is back to same position , Eurovision Mars is opposite 1944 Uranus (opposite 1944 Eclipse Mars) , 2016 Eurovision Moon Jupiter conjunct on Virgo on 1944’s Chiron (the wounded healer).  When the winner announced Moon move to 8 degree Virgo, tight conjunct with 1944 Chiron.      Jamala told us part of this song is … is a Crimean Tatar folk song she heard form her great grandmother , Moon , Jupiter , Chiron Virgo … planets combination fit into this sad story.

Finally if we check the astromap form 1944 deportation we will see the Sun As line and Mercury As Venus  line were near Stockholm, two events were 72 years apart, a tragic event and a music festival were link by Eclipse Cycles and Astromap for the both Event.

Yesterday’s wounds today’s glory from Chiron I/C to Jupiter near MC 

Maybe I am still not get how to link this year winner’s song  to Jupiter Virgo but when I watch again Jamala’s performing I saw that beautiful flower pattern grow to a tree while she was sining , is that Chiron on the IC ? Is that Jupiter Moon on the MC of event chart ? Yesterday’s wound could be heal by today’s glory?

I don’t know argument of song 1944 before I watch the Song contest, however this song  is really touching , Jamala’s voice is deep and healing, people talk about her accusation of 1944, yes it sounds like accusation if you take Russia’s view however if you step in to crimean Tartars shoes, we are witness a tragic event we share their pain and help to heal this wound by recognise their sorrow. I’d rather say it is a requiem for 1944 of a requiem for people who lost homeland, for people who lost family, who been killed or torture during Genocide, it is very healing … I wasn’t listen the lyrics first time  but with her voice I had already tears in my eyes. Her magnetic voice drag people to listen with heart , her body move like a witch healing everyone in a shamanic way . The feeling is so powerful for me. She heard the story from her family she witness their sorrow, I wish by singing their sorrow her music and glory can maybe heal these collective wounds , maybe this time detriment Jupiter Virgo try to show Us not only he can be joyous but he know how to heal too.

Few updata

1.  My astrologer colleague Eva Krajewska point out that ‘s birthday on 27 August 1983 here is the chart, Thank you Ewa .

2. My colleague Marcos Patchett suggest  ” Virgo is a loud-voiced, humane, feminine sign of the virgin, where Jupiter is in detriment so might indicate dissolution of Jupiter things – faith, national identity, freedom. Also, Jupiter squaring Saturn, but receiving Saturn’s hostile impositions & overcoming them – “you think you are gods, but everyone dies” & the “future where people are free”.Thank you Marcos .

 Taurus new Moon will occur on 6 May at 16 degrees Taurus its influence will last until 5 Jun.  This new Moon has Sun Moon trine Jupiter and Pluto, Sun Moon also quincunx Saturn. The ruler of the new moon is Venus, it moves into Taurus where Venus rules.  Meanwhile Jupiter turn to Direction from Retrograde The flavour of this lunar cycle could be exciting and jubilant. As Jupiter turns direction In one way, people may focus on progression positive future but underestimate the challenge still waiting. Saturn quincunx Sun Moon suggests that we may notice some people who are not so popular at this moment as they remind us of the challenging tasks that are still there waiting for us.

  

Important aspect

During this New Moon the outer planets aspects are still focussed on the challenges of global economy, the Jupiter square Saturn and Saturn square Neptune suggest the threat of bear market is one step closer.  However as Jupiter moves direct, Jupiter conjunct North Node, Jupiter started to trine Pluto and Venus trine Pluto suggesting that most people have a positive view of the market at this moment, this could be a brief relief before we face a bigger challenge, or we could say it gives us time to prepare for the winter. The 12th, 20th,  21st, 30th of May could be very important turning point of investment market.  

Not only the financial market holds this positive view, the international political situation also has this kind of jubilance.  The ongoing peace talk gives us some hope of peace.  The give-and-take conditions that we will not see, can only reveal later.

Lunation

This new Moon will trigger the 10 May 2013 Solar Eclipses as the Sun Moon was located  on 19 Taurus. That year we had Edward Snowden revealed the mass surveillance project of the Pentagon.  We also have the Egyptian political crisis as President Morsi was deposed and there were also several huge earthquakes in the Philippines and Pakistan (both areas also need to be careful at this time).

Another related lunation is the Solar Eclipse on 7 Feb 2007  as it happened on  17 degrees Aquarius, it worried me as early that year the stock market had a big fall on 28th Feb.  The current new Moon triggered on Feb 2007 Solar Eclipse gives rise that possibility of upheaval on stock market during this lunation. The other events include Turkey blocking Youtube and China giving permission to Foreign banks including Citi bank and HSBC to start their business in China.

As this new moon is related to the first quarter moon on 5 Jan 2017, full moon on 5 Oct 2017

and last quarter moon on  6 Jul 2018 this suggests that things happen this moment could come back in these 3 periods in the future.

Where?

 

According to the Astromap of the New Moon, the following countries should be more careful, especially if this area is also affected by outer planets during the Solar Eclipse, Aries Ingress or Jupiter stationary.

Asia-Pacific area: Japan, South Korea, North Korea Thailand, Indonesia, Malaysia, Bangladesh, Iran

Europe- Africa: Ethiopia, Somalia, East Coast Africa, Libya, ALGERIA, Greece, Croatia, Italy , France.            

America: Colombia, Ecuador, Peru, Chile, Brazil, Cuba, Dominique Rep. North East of US

Geodetic: in the Geodetic map suggest following areas could be tense areas: North East of US, west coast of Latin America, Spain, Portugal, Greece, India Pakistan, Vietnam and Thailand.   

  

Jupiter stationary 6th-13th May

Jupiter direction on 9th May and Jupiter stationary between 6th-13th May on 13 degrees Virgo before it turn to direction. The traditional view of a planet being stationary before turn direction is better than the stationary before retrograde. Therefore this stationary has a positive meaning of recovery and temporary relief.

However we should still be very careful with outer planet stationary time as the most important shocking events, nature disasters happen during this time. It could be Jupiter related areas like Justice system, Higher Education, Religions, aero-industry and anything related to flight and also economic and finance market.   

It is very interesting if we check the fixed stars during the Jupiter stationary time.  For most places Jupiter is paran  with Alkes ( α Crater ) as Jupiter is culminating when Alkes is culminating.  Alkes has Venus and Mercury nature, it brings kind, generous, cheerful and receptive qualities, very similar the flavour of this new moon.  In the Myth, the constellation Crater is the cup given by Apollo to Raven to bring some water for a party but Raven delays bringing it by eating the figs and lies about the water snake delaying the mission.  Therefore Apollo sent them to Sky and Raven can never drink the water in the Crater. Some stories also relate Crater with Icarus’s wine and prophecy.  The Crater also could be seen as a symbol of the cup related to the holy grail and represents the female nature as the vessel that carries life. 

Maybe during this time we will witness someone chasing things that they long for.  We get some new idea (or a lie) of future (Prophecy)  , maybe the important meaning of all this events suggest that we focus on life itself and focus on what we receive.

   

In the 28 house of (Xiu) of Chinese astrology this part of southern sky represent by Rose Finch (or Phoenix) the Alkes located in Yi Xiu (翼宿) represent Finch’s wing also related to honour the guest from far away. As Jupiter related to Birds and Foreigners, I will take these Chinese fixed stars meaning as a double whammies.

Jupiter stationary at 13 degrees Virgo, the following countries have Sun, Moon, Asc/Dsc Axis or Mc/IC Axis near stationary Jupiter.

Sun:Brazil Macedonia North Korea MONGOLIA VIETNAM  SWAZILAND  GHANA  Libya

Moon: FINLAND HUNGARY LATVIA LEBANON POLAND SWITZERLAND (constitution) THAILAND PHILLIPINES

ASC: ALGERIA Azerbaijan Ethiopia Jordan Kenya Libya Norway Scotland South Africa Zimbabwe

MC: Indonesia Malaysia Romania Thailand Turkey North Korea

First quarter Moon

First quarter Moon will happen on 13 May, Sun in 23 Taurus and Moon in 23 Leo, this belongs to Lunation family started at 18 May 2015 ( New Moon in 26 Taurus) and it also triggers New Moon of 14 Aug 2015 and 17 Aug 2012.

Events happened during these three lunation cycle maybe have echo between 17-21 May.

May 2015:  Biggest Earthquake since 1976 in Malaysia; Landslide in Colombia; Ireland votes to legalise same-sex marriage.

Aug 2015: Car bomb in Bangkok; Germany backs the third Bailout for Greece and Greek Prime Minister Tsipras resigns; ISIS Destroys Ancient Temple in Palmyra.

Aug 2012: Pussy Riot are convicted of hooliganism and sentenced to two years in a penal colony for performing an anti-Putin song; U.S. Embassy attacked in Middle East.

Un-aspected Mars

From 12-17 May Mars will not form major aspect with other Planets. This is could be seen as un-aspected although there are a few minor aspects or aspect with Moon sometimes. During this time people are seeking a chance to prove that they are able to do something.  As Mars is still retrograde and there are minor aspects with Pluto this un-aspected Mars have more unrest affecting in psychological level, we could easily feel offended and feel it is difficult to release our anger. 

Mars Pluto semi square usually suggests crisis, fighting and explosion , in my research it usually relates to oil price changes. There are the things that we should be careful between 17-21 May.

At 23:17 local time (UT 15:17) a magnitude 5.3 earthquake first hits Hualien (East Taiwan), although this is not a mega earthquake but it last more than 20 seconds this does made most people aware and panic,  10 minutes after another M4.7 earthquake happened .  

3 hours after another M 5.0 quake occurred in Taitung ( a little bit south ). 3 earthquakes in one night does made Taiwanese worry is there a major earthquake coming as the neighbour country Japan just had few mega earthquake early this month. 

From Astrological view, this area does need to be careful as both Solar Eclipse chart and Aries ingress chart has powerful planet on angles. On the 9th Mar 2016 solar eclipse chart Hualine area has Mars on Dsc and on the Aries Ingress chart Taiwan has Pluto near Dsc.

When 1st earthquake happened tonight (27th Apr 2016) Pluto was right on Ascendent. So as second earthquake as it only happened 10 minutes after, the 3rd one happen at 2:19 am Local time (18:18 UT) This time there is Saturn on Mc and Neptune on Asc.

Check the Fixed stars paran in Hualien East Taiwan area there is  Procyon setting when Pluto rising when Earthquake happen, the Procyon the Canis Minor. Ptolemy told us Procyon has Mercury Mars nature, Robson told us Procyon has meaning of action and sudden violence.    Ebertin Dr Brady talk about Babylonian meaning of this star is healing but Greek see it as small dog of Orion. jump on the stage before the big dog ” Sirius ” come to the sky.
