Government fires employee who skipped work for 24 years







(Reuters) - Even in India, where government jobs are considered to be for life, A.K. Verma was pushing it. Verma, an executive engineer at the Central Public Works Department, was fired after last appearing for work in December 1990. "He went on seeking extension of leave, which was not sanctioned, and defied directions to report to work," the government said in a statement on Thursday. Even after an inquiry found him guilty of "wilful absence from duty" in 1992, it took another 22 years and the intervention of a cabinet minister to remove him, the government said. India's labour laws, which the World Bank says are the most restrictive anywhere, make it hard to sack staff for any reason other than criminal misconduct. Jan.8 http://reut.rs/1DsH4iF







This example will illustrate how charts drawn for Moon phases can explain minor events like the one in the news here. Shown here is the chart for the Waning Gibbous Moon on January 9 at Delhi. Is this a powerful chart? Indeed it is with a Grand Cross on the angles. The Sun [18cp] is in the tenth house (and sign) which is linked to the Government while the Moon [3vi] is in the sixth house (and sign) that is associated with public servants.  

The Sun is conjunct Vesta and both the luminaries are in hard aspect to Neptune and Saturn. Vesta[2] is an asteroid that is linked to one’s dedication to work while Neptune can be connected to evasiveness and deception so that the issue mentioned in the news can be clearly seen in the chart. The Saturn-Neptune combination would refer to making a choice between escapism and attending to ones duties and responsibilities.

On the Ascendant with Uranus are the asteroids Arachne and Astraea [2].

ARACHNE: layerered complications/meanings; entrapment; spider webs, network.
ASTRAEA: Blocked closure; staying to the end (the sometimes bitter end;) an inability to read beginnings and endings or to let go of things, people or events; the witnessing of events.
URANUS:  disdain for convention; indifferent; rebel

A possible interpretation of the Archne-Astraea-Uranus combination is:

A person  is a rebel, has huge independence needs but he tends to keep his options open and tries not to fully burn his bridges  behind him. Closures are also blocked because of complications.

On the IC are TNPs Kronos-Hades [1].

KRONOS-HADES: Rules are stupid…they allow for a deterioration of things.

But finally please remember that the Sun and Moon are anchored to a the powerful and transformative Uranus-Pluto square for which Ebertin’s key phrase is the “end of an old order and the beginning of a new one” so that is exactly what we are seeing here after 24 years of escapism things are changing.
