Police in India
say they have arrested 17 members of a hardline Hindu group after a Muslim man
was beaten to death in the western city of Pune . Mohsin Sadiq Shaikh, 28, was stopped by
a group of men on Monday (June 2) night and beaten with rods and sticks. The
attackers were angry over some "distorted" images of the 17th Century
warrior king Shivaji and late Shiv Sena party leader Bal Thackeray on Facebook.
Officials say he was innocent and simply got up caught in clashes. BBC
Shown here
is the chart for the May 29 New Moon at
Pune. It is obviously significant for Pune since it is placed on the IC. The New Moon is also square Neptune and conjunct the stars
of Hyades i.e. gamma (γ) Taurus, Prima Hyadum, the chief star of the Hyades and
six stars situated on the face of the Bull [1].
The
astrological influence of the Hyades is well documented by the Roman astrologer
Manilius:
"The Hyades are a stormy star group and
was regarded as a separate constellation. Those born at this time take no
pleasure in tranquillity and set no store by a life of inaction; rather they
yearn for crowds and mobs and civil disorders. Sedition and uproar delight
them; they long for the Gracchi to harangue from the platform, for a secession
to the Sacred Mount, leaving but a handful of citizens at Rome ; they welcome fights which break the
peace and provide sustenance for fears. [Astronomica, Manilius, 1st century
AD, book 5, p.308-311].

Rosenberg writing about the stars that conjoin Neptune
[7pi] states:
There is an involvement with the primitive in both
the best and worst sense: a love of ancient knowledge, traditions and deep sources
of their national, racial or tribal inheritance, but at the same time a
potential for primal aggression and a belief that “might makes right”. She goes
on to list “riots, brutal attacks, expressions of race and religious prejudice”
among possible manifestations of these stars.
On the MC
[2sa13] is the star Kajam [1sa47]. Omega (ω) Hercules, Kajam, is a
4th-magnitude double star in the Club of Hercules [2].
"Hercules, the figure on bended knee and
called by the Greek name of Engonasin, about whose origin no certainty
prevails. Of this constellation is begotten the desertion, craftiness, and
deceit characteristic of its children, and from it comes the thug who
terrorizes the heart of the city…” [Manilius, Astronomica, 1st century, AD,
p.353.]
Putting the
above descriptions together, we get a good picture of the violent incident
reported in the news.
