The world's biggest ship







The world's largest container ship, the Globe, is docking in Britain for the first time as it continues its maiden voyage. But how vast and powerful is it and how long until it's superseded? The Globe is more than 400m (1,312ft) long, the equivalent of eight Olympic-size swimming pools. It is 56.8m (186ft) wide and 73m (240ft) high, its gross tonnage is 186,000 - the equivalent of 14,500 London buses, according to the Port of Felixstowe, where it arrived on Wednesday. The Globe's maiden voyage began in the Chinese city of Qingdao on 3 December and is due to end in Ningbo, China, on 25 February. Felixstowe is its first European stop. It will also call at Rotterdam, Hamburg and Bruges. http://www.bbc.com/news/magazine-30696685





The eclipse of April 29, 2014 was placed on the cusp of the 9th house at Qingdao, China. The 9th house is linked to ships and shipping [1]. In addition, the eclipse was conjunct the asteroids Toro and Phaethon.

PHAETHON: Instances that involve cars or other forms of transport vehicles.

TORO: Doing hard, physical work; strength (muscular); muscle flexing-psychologically or physically.

Together Phaethon-Toro can represent a “muscular” vehicle like  a truck or even a  large container ship like the one mentioned here.







Progressing the eclipse chart to December 3, 2014 when the giant ship began its maiden voyage brings the Grand Cross containing Uranus-Pluto (scientific and technological breakthroughs) and Jupiter (large) conjunct Canopus, alpha Argo Navis (ship) to the meridian axis!
