Mediterranean migrants crisis




Cetus – the Sea Monster


A Greek minister has said the "great powers" of Europe need to take more responsibility for the unfolding crisis in the Mediterranean Sea. Deputy Defence Minister Kostas Isichos told the BBC northern Europe must do more to rescue and shelter migrants. He said that Greece, Italy and Spain were working on a common position ahead of an emergency EU summit on Thursday. April 22, 2015 http://www.bbc.com/news/world-europe-32409151





 Cardinal Ingresses of the Sun are important mundane events. Of these the Ingress of the Sun into Capricorn is considered by many to be the most important and has been elevated to the position of an Annual Chart. Shown here is sidereal Capricorn Ingress at Athens, Greece. On the Ascendant [15ta] of the chart is the star Menkar, alpha Cetus in the crushing jaws of the Sea-Monster. The news comes to us on the very day Mercury conjoins Mars at [16ta] on the Ascendant of the Ingress chart.  Diana Rosenberg links stars in this area to shipwrecks and drowning and gives the following examples:

These stars were transited when Titanic was launched from Belfast in 1911, when submarine HMS Thetis was lost on a trial dive in 1939, at the start of the 1793 “noyades”- mass drowning at Nantes (thousands of opponents of the French Revolution were shipped into the Loire and their boats scuttled), at the 1715 Los Capitanas disaster, when a Spanish fleet left Havana with one of the greatest treasures shipped from the New World and sailed into a massive hurricane; 10 of the 11 ships were lost, 1000 drowned on rocks; in 1994 when ferry Estonia sank near Utoe, Finland: between 900-1000 died; at the 1944 WWII Bombay disaster: a burning explosive laden ship detonated, completely wrecking the port, killing 1,376, destroying 100,000 tons of supplies, leaving the port unusable for the rest of the war  and many others.








Progressing the Ingress chart to April 22 brings the Mars-Saturn-Neptune square that can be associated with accidents at sea to the angles. Saturn[2sa] is conjunct the star Yed Posterior [3sa31] which was part of the ancient Euphratean Mulu-bat, “Man of Death”.  This is placed in tropical Sagittarius (and Anuradha, a mansion of wanderers), Diana Rosenberg notes that these extraordinary people yearn to visit exotic places and strange lands and would like to be anywhere but their home countries [1]. Under possible manifestation of these stars she lists “transportation events including accidents”.

And finally, Neptune is conjunct the stars of the humanitarian Water Bearer Aquarius (as well as healing goddess Gula, his ancient predecessor). Here we see the rise of social conscience and the impulse to help and save. In other words, the Greek minister is exhibiting an evolved expression of Mars-Saturn-Neptune when he states that Europe must take more responsibility for the unfolding crisis in the Mediterranean Sea. After all it was the actions of NATO against Libya a few years ago that has now resulted in this deluge of migrants.
