Hercules
Boyan Slat is a 20-year-old on a mission - to rid
the world's oceans of floating plastic. He has dedicated his teenage years to
finding a way of collecting it. But can the system really work - and is there
any point when so much new plastic waste is still flowing into the sea every
day? BBC, Oct.16 http://www.bbc.com/news/magazine-29631332
We are
still in the wake of the powerful Total Lunar Eclipse of October 8. The chart
for the eclipse at Delft , Netherlands where Boyan Slat lives
is shown here. The eclipse is placed in the angles so it is very significant for the
place. The 12th house in any chart has been called “the garbage dump
of the zodiac” [1] so in our study of the eclipse this is where we will start.
Notice that Mars, the ruler of the 12th, is placed in the 1st
house conjunct the star Ras Algethi, alpha Hercules. About the constellation
Hercules, Nick Fiorenza [2] writes:
Hercules stands upside down in the northern
Heavens, above Ophiuchus and this entire scene, with his feet (foundation) in
the celestial dome (seven Heavens), in the realm of the gods, and with his head
and hands at work in the realm of humankind. With his head and other hand,
Hercules demonstrably aids those in the incarnate world to claim their freedom
from perpetuated entrapment.
Hercules is known for his shrewdness and valor in
action and for his masculinity, his great strength and courage, and his sexual
prowess and great appetites including those erotic. He is renowned for making
the world safe for humankind.
Ras Algethi, [16sa21] the head of Hercules, is the
lucida (brightest star) of this constellation . Ras Algethi embodies the wisdom
of Hercules (derived partly from heritage and partly from experience) and
contributes significantly to the Ophiuchus / Scorpio theme. Hercules is one
seeded from another realm, who is intimately aware of the dilemma of this realm
and its cause (the amalgamation of those from the heavens with those from the
Earth). His beauty and intelligence (from Alcmene) and his wisdom of evolutionary
matters along with his shrewd sagacity (from Zeus) is the motivation driving
his actions. His presence upon this solar system's (soul's) incarnational plane
is thus of a service capacity and mission of evolutionary proportion. Ras
Algethi embodies the wisdom of Herculis and is of undaunted dedication with his
entirety of being to ensure the evolutionary freedom for all souls on the
Earth.
Also conjoining Ras Algethi is Sarin, Delta
Hercules, composing (with Kornephorus) the shoulder of Hercules. Sarin embodies
the essence of Hercules' "sense of responsibility" to aid others in
attaining their freedom in life.
Mars[17sa] forms a Grand Trine with Jupiter [17le] and
Uranus [14ar]. Jupiter is conjunct the stars of the protective Great Bear and the poisonous Hydra which Diana Rosenberg links
to “issues relating to the destruction
or protection of children, animals and the environment”.
Jupiter brings an expansive, open energy which
complements Uranus’ inventive tone. As a pair, they have, throughout history,
been linked to creative and scientific breakthroughs. http://bit.ly/1rx3UiU
Finally, we
notice Neptune [5pi] in a sharp square to the
horizon axis. This extract from Stariq [3] about Neptune
in Pisces says it all:
The value of water is likely to increase, along
with investments in conservation and desalinization. However, the effects of
pollution might also grow more evident, leading to extensive research to
address these problems. Neptune in Pisces
increases sensitivity to toxins, requiring more thorough cleanup of existing
waste and a more cautious approach to introducing new products into the
environment. These may be the last days of plastic as we know it, replacing
current chemical formulas with biodegradable substitutes.
Progressing
the eclipse chart to Oct. 16, the date of the news, aligns the eclipse axis and
the accompanying Grand Trine with the meridian triggering an event in which all
the issues mentioned above find a place.
