April 08, 2015 "ICH" - "MEE" -
Last month, the Washington DC-based Physicians for Social Responsibility (PRS)
released a landmark study concluding that the death toll from 10 years of the
“War on Terror” since the 9/11 attacks is at least 1.3 million, and could be as
high as 2 million. The 97-page report by the Nobel Peace Prize-winning doctors’
group is the first to tally up the total number of civilian casualties from
US-led counter-terrorism interventions in Iraq, Afghanistan and Pakistan. The
PSR report is authored by an interdisciplinary team of leading public health
experts, including Dr. Robert Gould, director of health professional outreach
and education at the University of California San Francisco Medical Center, and
Professor Tim Takaro of the Faculty of Health Sciences at Simon Fraser
University. http://www.informationclearinghouse.info/article41491.htm
The horoscope
for the 9/11 attack is ideally suited
for understanding this development. An analysis of this chart was presented in
an earlier post [1] wherein we saw that the stars of Corvus , the lying crow,
occupied the Ascendant. Notice that the lunar eclipse of April 4, 2015 has
fallen exactly on the horizon axis of the 9/11 chart thereby bringing to life
issues connected with the chart. Since the Uranus-Pluto square is on the angles
we have individuals or a group of individuals (Uranus in Aries) striving to
expose the cover up of lies by governments and those in power (Pluto in
Capricorn).
Next we look
at the chart for the total solar eclipse of March 20 drawn for Washington, DC
from where the report was published. The
eclipse took place at 29 Pisces, the last degree of the zodiac. About this degree,
Diana Rosenberg writes, “as if anticipating
the new beginnings of Aries in the next degree there are breakthroughs…as
well as (recognition ?) of sorrows and disasters that lead to reforms and new
beginnings”. But perhaps more relevant
is the Saturn-Neptune square that the eclipse places on the meridian.
Saturn [4sa]
is conjunct stars of Wild Beast Lupus and Scorpius together with the writhing
Serpent in the left hand of the physician Ophiuchus. Wild Beast Lupus is to be
understood in the context of the Centaur shown carrying a spear that impales the
beast – the wolf. The wolf a symbol of fierceness,
evil, and devouring (thus gluttony) was a despoiler of flocks, rapacious,
cruel, crafty and bloodthirsty. It has
long been a symbol of evil. In Christian art, animals impaled on lances often
allude to vices that must be overcome. The physician or healer Ophiuchus represents one who struggles with the evil in
this area symbolically depicted by the Serpent. The placement of Saturn in the
mundane tenth house is referring to the US Government. Has the US in Iraq and
Afghanistan behaved in a way that can be
represented by the Wild Beast? Indeed it has.
If a square
represents a conflict that could lead to a higher consciousness, the next
question to address is what does Neptune [8pi] represent in this drama. About this area, Diana Rosenberg writes:
The
ancient figure of Gula, “the Great Doctoress” is superimposed on stars of
Aquarius, her face, forehead and left hand come out here in mouth of the Urn
and its outflowing waters bringing forth physician and healers. These souls
must make a great choice: whether to remain aloof to the anguish of others, or
to learn sensitivity and compassion through their own painful experiences,
becoming “wounded healers” who develop an impulse to help, teach, save and restore.
In
conclusion, we may say that the upper or waning square of Saturn-Neptune often referred to as a crisis of consciousness
not only brings out the deeper issue connected with the publishing of the
report but that this could not have been understood without reference to the
stars.
