Eclipse exposes plot to buy the Football World Cup


Battling the Hydra




THE secret payments that helped Qatar to win the World Cup bid are revealed for the first time this weekend in a bombshell cache of millions of documents leaked to The Sunday Times.  London, June 1


None of these events take place without the “connivance” of the stars. Let us look at the chart of the last solar eclipse of April 29 [8ta52] at London. It was placed in the mundane 12th house of things secret or hidden and was conjunct the asteroid Toro [9ta44] which is popularly linked to football [1].

TORO: Machismo; bullying; intimidation; doing hard, physical work; strength (muscular); muscle flexing—psychologically or physically; challenging others; rough treatment; competitive; football; prizefighting; toughness.






The eclipse is anchored to the Cardinal Grand Cross through a quincunx aspect to the Mars [11li]  end. Mars is conjunct the stars Vindemiatrix, epsilon Virginis [10li08] and omicron Hydrae [11li23] of the Water Serpent.   The Hydra is often depicted as a seven headed snake  and stands for evil. Water or sea serpents as symbols relate  the blind, animal life-force of the unconscious with that of the abyss; the many headed Hydra which kept growing new heads as each was cut off symbolizes the difficulty of conquering vices and obstacles that multiply in the course of accomplishing a task.


Virgin goddess Astraea with scales of Justice


The constellation Virgo  was sometimes identified with  the virgin goddess Astraea, holding the scales of justice in her hand as the constellation Libra. With both  the  Virgin and the Hydra here there can be issues of morality vs amorality, corruption and greed vs justice for sins committed.

Progressing the eclipse chart to June 1, the date of the news, brings the Uranus-Pluto Cardinal Grand Cross to the horizon axis. Nick Fiorenza [2] summarizes the action of the Uranus-Pluto square thus:

Uranus impels the people to initiate action to create radical change in the existing techno-bureaucratic paradigm. Uranus stimulates a revolution based upon the revelations of hidden secrets catalyzed by Pluto. It also stimulates a radical, perhaps rude, awakening in the collective in a way that impels people to no longer acquiesce to financial entrapment and the manipulation of resources by authoritarian bureaucracies.
