Last Quarter Moon addresses the issue of asylum seekers in UK




Detainees in several of the UK’s immigration detention centers, including Harmondsworth – the country’s largest detention facility – have staged hunger strikes and demonstrations, calling for improved conditions and a limit to the maximum detention time. Several hundred asylum seekers at Harmondsworth detention center, near London’s Heathrow Airport, have been on hunger strike since Monday. A reported 300 migrants are participating in the strike at the detention facility, which houses around 620 men. Hunger strikes and protests have been breaking out in similar centers since last week.

This news of inhuman treatment of illegal immigrants comes to us at the last quarter Moon. At London, the luminaries are placed very significantly on the descendant and the IC.  Surprisingly, the Sabian symbol for the Moon refers to a “group of immigrants”. The Sun and Moon rule the 12th and 11th houses of the chart respectively.

11th house
Long term national programs and schemes for improvement. Campion, Baigent and Harvey state: "we may also consider it relates to a society's collective long-term hopes, wishes, ambitions and ideals." Places and institutions that offer relief and shelter. [1]

12th house
The weak, infirm, or  those in need of support. In countries where relevant, concentration camps and those kept in slavery or bondage. Homeless people, the wounded and infirm. [2]

Addiitonally, we find that the Moon conjoins the Kronos-Neptune midpoint in a 45 degree sort.

Kronos-Neptune: Exploitation of the weak and vulnerable (Neptune) by government, regulations or laws (Kronos).

If we remember that the Last Quarter Moon, in the words of Dane Rudhyar, is a “crisis in consciousness” we can put together the meaning of the 11th and 12th rulers here. Perhaps, the Quarter Moon is pointing to a  need for improvement in the way society treats illegal immigrants.
