Woman finds three-inch leech in nose

A backpacker found a 3in (7.5cm) leech that had been living up her nose for a month after a trip to South East Asia. Daniela Liverani, 24, from Edinburgh, had been having nosebleeds for weeks but put them down to a burst blood vessel from a motorbike crash. Ms Liverani was having a shower last Thursday when she was realised the dark shape wriggling in her nose was actually an animal. Hospital staff used forceps and tweezers to remove the parasite.

For this post we go back to the Full Moon eclipse of  October 18, 2013. The chart for the eclipse at Edinburgh has the Moon [25ar] on the MC [20ar] which is conjunct the star 20 Cephei,[21ar]  in the King’s face. Diana Rosenberg links  this area to nasal problems [1] and adds that stars here were part of the Chinese asterism Wai-Ping – the enclosure of The Celestial Marshes where harmful insects and bacteria bred [2].

On the Ascendant [13le] there are several stars of Hydra – the Water Snake (the leech?). Progressing the chart to October 13, 2014 – the date of the news – brings the Ascendant back to a conjunction with the stars of Hydra and square the nodal axis and the Moon and the asteroid Hygiea connected with medical matters, cleanliness and hygiene.

Stars of  Hydra	2000
delta	10LEO18
sigma	11LEO13
eta	12LEO18
epsilon	12LEO21
rho	12LEO55
zeta	14LEO35
