A blind man who put a note in a bookshop window
seeking someone to read to him says he has been inundated with offers after the
advert was tweeted. Andrew Bailey, 34, from Nunhead, south-east London , has Friedreich's
ataxia - a degenerative disease which stopped him being able to read 15 years
ago. A picture of the ad was posted on Twitter on Saturday and has been
retweeted more than 1,000 times. Mr Bailey said the response made him
"feel very good really". BBC; Oct.12 http://www.bbc.com/news/uk-england-london-29587516
This
example will illustrate how an eclipse which is almost a year old continues to
create events. Shown here is the chart for the Full Moon lunar eclipse of
October 18, 2013 at London
that fell exactly on the meridian axis. For the stars that form the backdrop to
the eclipse Moon [25ar], Diana Rosenberg writes:
Some enjoy a high level of physical capabilities,
others must work to overcome disabilities, including sight or hearing problems.
[1]
The eclipse
Moon [25ar] and the MC [23ar] form a T-square with caring Jupiter [19cn] in tropical Cancer placed in the 12th
house. It is opposite to the asteroid
Astraea [18cp] that is linked to poor sight. About the 12th house
Deborah Houlding writes:
Traditionally, however, it is a wholly unfortunate
house, associated with sad events, sorrow, anguish of mind, tribulation,
captivity, imprisonment, persecution, hard labour, all manner of affliction and
self-undoing. It represents places that are denied access to public view, particularly
those concerned with seclusion or isolation, or where one is restricted from
living a carefree life-style, such as institutions or prisons. [2]
On the Ascendant [12le] is xi Cancri [13le23], the
left eye of the Crab. This was a star of the Arabic Lunar
Mansion , Al Tarf , “The
Eyes” of the huge early Arab lion and Diana Rosenberg associates it with
blindness and eye problems. Jupiter [19cn] is conjunct Mirza, gamma Canis Major
[19cn46] in the head of the Greater Dog about which Diana writes “prone to head
maladies, including eye and ear problems” [3]
Two asteroids that Martha Wescott links to eyes are
Astraea and Young. In the eclipse chart Astraea
[18cp34] is opposite Jupiter and square the eclipse while Young (2165) at [9le07] is
placed on the Ascendant [12le] square Hygiea
[10ta09] linked to medical issues. [4]
Progressing
the chart by the solar quotidian method brings the progressed Ascendant [7le] to
a square with the Nodal Axis also activating the asteroids Young [9le] and Hygiea
[10ta]. The Ascendant [7le] is conjunct the Bee-hive cluster Praesepe linked to
blindness:
Eye issues or problems. This is the only area mentioned by three ancient sources - Ptolemy, Al Biruni and Manilius as affecting
sight [5]
The North
Node [7ta42] is conjunct the star kappa Aries [7ta28] in the Ram’s eye again
linked to blindness [6].
