A second horse has died following the 154th running
of the Melbourne Cup, Australia
To
understand this news we will go back to the April solar eclipse. The New Moon
Eclipse of April 29 conjoined Hamal of Aries. Hamal, the butting head of the
Ram produces impatience and a headlong rush towards success. The eclipse is
conjunct the asteroids Toro, Phaethon and Hephaistos. Toro is about competitive
sports, Phaethon is recklessness and Hephaistos is injuries to the leg. The
eclipse places a Grand Cross containing Uranus-Pluto-Mars on the angles. Ebertin
lists “injury and accidents” among possible events under the combination
Uranus-Pluto-Mars.
On the MC
with the TNP Hades are stars Menkalinan, beta Auriga of the Charioteer and
theta Leporus, the Hare both connected
with speed and with Kronos are the stars Tejat and Alhena in the feet of the
Twins.
On the IC of
the chart is the star Facies, M22 Sagittarius of the horseman (a jockey!).
About this star Eric Morse writes:
Much blamed for accidents and broken limbs and so
on. The Latin name is from the verb Facere, to make or do something, and it is
often said to portend accidents due to the victim's own careless actions.
Naturally, there is a positive side to Facies, it symbolizes well that kind of
Sagittarian who goes out to climb mountains, race cars, enter the ski-jump team
or the Grand National steeplechase, making it right to the top and no doubt
breaking a few bones along the way. [The Living Stars, Dr. Eric Morse,
p.94-95.].
Progressing
the eclipse chart to November 4, aligns the Grand Cross once again with the
angles.
In addition
notice that Mars was transiting the star Facies on the IC of the eclipse chart
and on November 4 it also received a square aspect from the transit Moon which was
caught sharply on the angles at Melbourne
