China’s Great Red
Bird
The fossilized discovery in China of modern birds'
oldest relative puts their origin six million years earlier than previously
thought. The fossils of the oldest known ancestor of modern birds, found by
paleontologists in China, has prompted scientists to rethink the date of the
first appearance of the Ornithuromorpha clade of birds, which includes all
modern species. As a result of the discovery, the date has jumped back by
around six million years to 130.7 million years ago, a team led by researchers
from the Institute of Vertebrate Paleontology and Paleoanthropology in Beijing
announced on Tuesday (May 5). According to the findings, published in the
journal Nature Communications, the animal, named Archaeornithura meemannae, was
a wading bird, which used its long legs like today's cranes and herons to look
for food on the shores of a lake. http://sputniknews.com/asia/20150506/1021779019.html
Among
cardinal ingresses of the Sun, the Capricorn Ingress chart holds a special
place in mundane astrology. Shown here is the chart for the Capricorn Ingress
at Beijing, China. Notice that a prominent T-squares straddles the meridian and
the Ascendant [22sa] and Moon [28sa] are conjunct the Galactic Centre [27sa]. Philip
Sedgwick [1] suggests that the GC is connected with new developments in
aviation. The reconstructed “root” of AVIATION
is awi (bird). To AVIATE is to fly, from
Latin avis (bird).
When the Wright
Brothers successfully flew their mechanized aircraft on the beaches of North
Carolina in December 1903, the Galactic Center constituted the midpoint of the
Sun/Uranus conjunction in late Sagittarius. So, the Galactic Center
perpetually plays a part in aviation, especially where existing technology
fails and new engineering must result. Consider that when Uranus,
hand-in-hand with Saturn, crossed these degrees in the late 1980's commercial
aircraft manufacturers toyed with new ways of engine propulsion. They went back
to turboprop bearing Saturn’s link to the past. But now they put the engines in
a new place, at the rear of the plane to honor Uranus. But to give the Uranus
return of modern flight extra consideration, the propellers took residence on
the rear of the engines. These ideas, though, never really got off the ground.
So here we
have a hint that the chart might be referring to the origin of flight.
But the chart goes further than that by a reference to birds. On the MC
[14li] are stars of the Virgin’s wing, the Crow’s wing and China’s Great Red
Bird. These combine with tropical Libra element of air to produce events
connected with flight and aviation. In addition
a powerful T-square containing
the Uranus-Pluto combination, which is linked to technological
breakthroughs, straddles the meridian axis.
But can we
sure that this chart is referring to the discovery mentioned in the news? Well
all it takes to find out is to progress the chart to May 5 when the horizon
axis now aspects the T-square providing the trigger for the discovery.
