Argentina tries doctors for 'baby theft' during military rule







Two doctors and a midwife have gone on trial in Argentina charged with kidnapping babies born in captivity to left-wing political prisoners during the 1976-83 military government. It is the first case of medical staff being tried for allegedly falsifying the babies' birth certificates. An estimated 500 children were stolen at birth from their mothers during what was known as the Dirty War. They were then given illegally to other families who raised them as their own. The real parents were either killed or disappeared.

Prosecutors in the Argentine capital, Buenos Aires, accuse the two doctors, Norberto Bianco and Raul Martin, and the midwife, Luisa Yolanda Arroche, of "providing essential assistance" to hide the babies' identity and hand them over to sympathisers of the Argentine military government.

Here we start with the last solar eclipse placed of April 29, placed in Taurus. Taurus, the sign of the Bull, has been linked to abduction. In Greek mythology Europa, a Phoenician woman of high lineage, for whom the continent Europe was named was abducted by Zeus in the form of a white bull. The chart of the solar eclipse drawn for Buenos Aires is shown here.



On the Ascendant is the star Achernar, alpha Eridani.  Eridanus is the Celestial River of Time and brings to light events of the past. Aratus called Eridanus “The River of Many Tears”. Jupiter [15cn] in tropical Cancer, the sign most related to mothers and mothering is placed in the 5th house of children and conjunct the asteroid Child [20cn]. Pluto, the mythological abductor of Demeter’s child Persephone, is opposite Jupiter and the asteroid Child. Progressing the eclipse chart to Sept. 18 brings Jupiter to the Ascendant triggering the entire configuration. A second trigger came from the Full Moon of Sept.9 that fell exactly on the horizon axis of the eclipse chart.
