US Supreme Court Gay Marriage ruling frees Andromeda





Gay couples and activists across the country are celebrating two Supreme Court rulings, one declaring the federal Defense of Marriage Act unconstitutional and the other clearing the way for same-sex marriage in California.


In this post we will see how the lunar eclipse of  April 25, 2013 at 5sc46 can help us understand the reasons for the above news item. An eclipse creates a relaxation and re-stimulation both in Earth’s energy grid and in our neurobiological resonance providing an opportunity to release the past and engage in a fresh start [1].




Conjunct the Sun [5ta46] and Mars [4ta0] we have the stars of Cetus, the sea-monster, Andromeda, the chained princess and her parents King Cepheus and Queen Cassiopeia [2]. Under the dark, brooding influence  of the Sea-Monster, the entrapment theme of Andromeda and the intense fixity of tropical Taurus, some with a fixed mind-set become trapped in acute moral and ethical issues so that this is a major area of intolerance vs human rights [3]. The stars Caph and Alphirk in Cassiopeia and Cepheus mark the refined and  beneficent aspects of the King and the Queen (the lawgivers) that provide relief for Andromeda. Conjoining Caph, the Queen's hand, is the Quasar 3C48, just north of Aries in Triangulum. Quasars in general bring experience that is out of the ordinary, experience that does not fit into our normal reality. This oddity helps to shatter our limiting concepts of how the universe works. This specific quasar in Triangulum asks us to open to new possibilities about how our destinies can unfold, possibilities beyond a mortal’s view. Divine forces are at work guiding our lives, far more powerful than our limitations, blunders, and efforts. To believe in and see this is to find the golden triangular corridor of light that is Triangulum--the Way. Alphirk, ( usually an authority figure) ,  is a demonstrable force working though the world that actually lifts us from the struggles of life, or alters conditions in a way that otherwise would be impossible through our own power alone.

A look at the backdrop stars for Moon [5sc46] and Saturn [8sc24]  at the other end will help to complete the picture. Here we have the stars Gacrux of the Southern Cross along  with stars of the Virgin, Centaur and Corona Borealis. Because one piece of the cross is upright and the other horizontal, it stands for the union of opposites, the spirit [ masculine, good, lawful ] in the vertical axis interpenetrated by matter [feminine, evil, sin, chaos ] in the horizontal axis.  Hence the cross is a metaphor for agony, struggle and martyrdom to give shape or get lawful acceptance for what may have been considered evil or sinful. Noonan [5] associates the alpha star of  Corona Borealis with homosexuality and perversity in sexual matters. Similar conclusions can be drawn from  planetary pictures  of the eclipse.  Noel Tyl and Ebertin provide the following key phrases:

Venus/Mars = 38d30 =  Saturn = 38d24 :

The sense of being controlled in love matters, of losing freedom; inhibitions. [ Tyl]

Inhibitions in love life; an inclination to adultery or abnormal and pathological sex expression. [ Ebertin]

Neptune/Pluto=38d13 = Saturn =38d24 : Grief, weakness, torment [Tyl]

Jupiter =16ge26= MC= 17ge20 : Success; recognition, good fortune [Tyl]

Finally, in the eclipse chart, Jupiter, the planet that rules law courts is on the MC amongst the last stars of Perseus so that Diana Rosenberg states that this area produces heroes who save those caught in tragic circumstances. If we remember that eclipses push us to bring an end to the way we have been handling  issues highlighted by the eclipse , we can see why all this led to the Supreme Court judgement on gay marriages on a day when the progressed Ascendant of the eclipse chart brings the eclipse luminaries with associated planets to the horizon – a significant axis that brings to light all that is potential in the planet- star combinations.
