Benetnash and the New York house collapse


The New York City Fire Department responded Wednesday to reports of a large building explosion and collapse in East Harlem. The FDNY said the building is located around Park Avenue between 114th and 117th streets, which is north of Central Park. Residents reported hearing a large explosion in an apartment building around 9 a.m.




Shown here is the Lunar Eclipse of 25 April 2013 at New York. Notice that it is significant for the place since both the luminaries form hard aspects to the meridian axis. In addition, the eclipse axis coincides with a Mars-Saturn opposition – a combination that is linked to accidents and explosions.

On the question of orbs when using stars on the angles of a mundane chart. Nick Fiorenza [1] writes “unlike looking at star alignments with planets, where we use a very tight orb (±2°), the angles in a chart have an active orb of about ±7°”


With this in mind we can see that the Ascendant of the eclipse chart [21vi29] is conjunct the star Benetnash [27vi07].

In an important position in a mundane map, Benetnash will claim human lives in calamities such as mine accidents, collapse of houses and bridges, mountain slides, earth tremors and catastrophes caused by weather. [Fixed Stars and Their Interpretation, Elsbeth Ebertin, 1928, no.46, p.57, under the name Benetnash] [2]

The eclipse fell on the Lunar Nodal Axis of Scorpio/Taurus . Taurus deals with houses, land, mines, earth and agriculture and along with Scorpio it completes the universal cycles of birth and death, growth and destruction, Spring and Fall.





Progressing the angles by the solar quotidian method brings the eclipse axis in alignment with the meridian on 12 March 2014, the date of the incident. In mundane astrology it is understood that the approximate date of operation of an eclipse can be calculated by progressing the angles to see when they touch the eclipse or other important planets. So given the foregoing, it is no surprise that a building collapsed on 12th March!



Often, lunations occurring in real time also provide a trigger. Notice that the upcoming Full Moon is on the 4th cusp (houses) conjunct the star Benetnash!!
