HELIGOLAND, Germany
— Of all the developed nations, few have pushed harder than Germany to find
a solution to global warming. And towering symbols of that drive are appearing
in the middle of the North Sea .
They are wind turbines, standing as far as 60 miles
from the mainland, stretching as high as 60-story buildings and costing up to
$30 million apiece. On some of these giant machines, a single blade roughly
equals the wingspan of the largest airliner in the sky, the Airbus A380. By
year’s end, scores of new turbines will be sending low-emission electricity to
German cities hundreds of miles to the south. Sept 13 http://nyti.ms/1uxivvp
This
heartening news comes to us on the eve of a Lunar Eclipse of October 8. The
chart for the eclipse at Heligoland is shown here. Notice the eclipse is
significantly placed on the meridian axis and is part of a Uranus-Pluto-Venus
T-square.
About
Uranus-Pluto Richard Tarnas notes:
With Pluto acting on Uranus, we can see what could
be called the intensification on a massive scale (Pluto) of technology (Uranus)
or the empowerment (Pluto) of revolutionary breakthroughs (Uranus) and
awakenings”. He gives as an example
the tremendous scientific discovery and
revolutions in science at turn of the
Twentieth Century when a Pluto-Uranus opposition [1896-1905] took place. “Epochal breakthroughs” in
technology occurred, such as the discovery of radioactivity and the electron,
the invention of the automobile, Zeppelin, and the airplane. The number of
automobiles in America
rose a thousand-fold from 25 in 1896 to 25,000 in 1905.
The chart
also gives us a clue to a possible area of the technological breakthrough. Notice that Venus
[10li] on the MC is conjunct the stars Vindemiatrix, epsilon Virginis,[10li] in
the Wing of the Virgin and mu Velorum [11li] in the Sail of Argo
Navis and Gienah, gamma Corvi [11li] in the Crow’s wing. Sails and Wings are so
close symbolically to Wind Turbines whose giant blades act like the sail of a
ship or the wings of a bird!
The Moon
[15ar] and Uranus [14ar] are conjunct
the star Alpheratz, alpha Andromeda [14ar], in the head of the Chained Woman.
It is extremely interesting that the star in Andromeda’s Head is also the Navel
of Pegasus for it means that the Flying Horse, symbol of a powerful mind and
unbridled imagination, is “born” from the head of a Chained Woman; thus the
great message here is that no matter what constraint life imposes our minds are free to discover new ways to
free ourselves from the past. The use of
wind energy – a renewable resource – frees us from our dependence on fossil
fuel that has been the primary cause of environmental pollution since the
beginning of the industrial age.
