Crab on shoreline
President Barack Obama travels to Texas Wednesday to raise money for
Democratic campaigns in Dallas and Austin, speak about the economy, and meet
with community leaders for a discussion about the wave of migrants, many of
them children, flooding the U.S.-Mexico border in recent months. TIME; July 9
Shown here
is the chart for the Waxing Gibbous Moon phase of July 9, drawn for Washington ,DC .
Notice the powerful Grand Cross on the angles with Uranus-Pluto-Mars aspecting
the Sun in Cancer. The Sun entered security loving Cancer on Saturday, June 21.
It subsequently opposed Pluto on July 4
and squared Uranus on July 8. Cancer is a sign that loves the safety and
security of blood relations, families and nations or race. In other words it
loves boundaries that separate “my people” from others. How interesting that the animal symbol chosen
for Cancer is the Crab that lives on the
shoreline – boundary between the land and the sea. With the Cancer Sun caught
up in stressful hard aspects to Uranus and Pluto clinging to old ideas of
family, nation or race is likely to increase insecurity. On the other hand, applying the nurturing and caring qualities of
this sign encourages growth. (On a
broader level this means one of two things (a) if we have been draining
ourselves by taking care of others, it is time to look after ourselves…(b) the reverse is also true in case
we have been very selfish and not bothered about taking care of others this is
the time to do it).
On the MC of the chart with Pluto is the asteroid Hidalgo ;
conjunct the Sun on the IC is the asteroid Amor
while Uranus is on the Ascendant opposite the asteroid Hybris on the Descendant. Keywords for these asteroids provided by
Martha Wescott [1] are as follows:
AMOR: What
interferes or blocks the love and acceptance (of self & others); figuring
out whether you can (or should) remain accepting or should you set boundaries or limits on what happens
in name of acceptance.
HYBRIS: Glass-ceilings,
conditioned limitations.
With
Uranus-Pluto hitting these asteroids the US
is being asked to re-examine its concept
of boundaries with Mexico
which is what the essence of the news item is about.
