Astrology of the Brazil nightclub fire

At least 180 people have died in a fire that swept through a nightclub in southern Brazil, police say. They say the fire began when a band on stage started a fireworks display at the Kiss nightclub in the city of Santa Maria, in Rio Grande do Sul state. Reports say there was only one exit and panic spread as people tried to get out. Many of the dead were students celebrating the end of summer. Students at many Brazilian universities return to school on Monday.

Shown here is the solar eclipse of May 21, 2012  in Gemini (the sign associated with schools and students [1]) at Santa Maria. Notice that it is placed in the 5^th house .  H.S. Green [2] writes:

“Unfortunate for theatres, amusements and places of entertainment”

The Ascendant of the chart [14cp30]  is conjunct the star Vega [15cp30]  Alpha (α) Lyra, Vega, is a pale sapphire star in the Lyre. Readers can see below that Manilius’ description fits a nightclub perfectly.

"Hence will come endowments of song and tuneful strings, hence pipes of different shapes which prattle melodiously, and whatever is moved to utterance by touch of hand or force of breath. The child of the Lyre will sing beguiling songs at the banquet, his voice adding mellowness to the wine and holding the night in thrall". [Manilius, book 5, Astronomica, 1st century AD, p.327].

Pluto-Uranus-Zeus are angular and, therefore,  make this chart very significant for the place.  A simple meaning for this combination is :  Unexpected (Uranus) radical events (Pluto) involving fires (Zeus).

Finally, if we progress the chart to the date of the event we find that the progressed descendant is conjunct Jupiter and the very unfortunate star Algol associated with mass catastrophes. The Chinese gave it the gruesome title Tseih She, the Piled-up Corpses.

With the pieces of the jigsaw falling in place we can see how clearly the eclipse chart with all its elements describes the event quite accurately.
