Lilith Tempting Adam and Eve
"The Fall of Man and the Expulsion From
Paradise"
Michelangelo - Sistine Chapel Vatican
Female scientists have been sharing
"distractingly sexy" photos of themselves after a feminist website
encouraged them to respond to comments by a Nobel laureate. Nobel Prize winner
Tim Hunt was roundly criticised when he detailed his thoughts about the
"trouble with girls" at a conference of science journalists on June 9.
"Three things happen when they are in the lab," he said, "you
fall in love with them, they fall in love with you, and when you criticise them
they cry." http://www.bbc.com/news/blogs-trending-33099289
A chart
for the Last Quarter Moon of June 9 is shown here. The luminaries make hard aspects to Venus (women)
which squares the horizon axis. The
asteroid Hera [29ar] is on the descendant opposite the asteroid Lilith [6sc]
and the TNP Apollon [29li]. Keywords for these elements are given below [1][2][3].
Put together they describe the essence of the incident.
APOLLON: Growth
and increase. Science, commerce, trade, industry
LILITH:
Triangulation; competing; selection & rejection; decisions (regarding angle
or aspects;) divided loyalties; favoritism; gender stereotypes; use of
sex or rejection for dominance.
HERA: Issues of “rights” between people;
relationship dynamic and parental model; jealousy; maintaining fairness in
dealing with others; events through partners & partnership.
About the
asteroid Lilith, Kelly Hunter [3] writes:
The asteroid seems
to represent split-off, demonized aspects of the feminine, the result of
long-standing cultural projections that perceive feminine roles and attributes
as shameful, untrustworthy, and dangerous. Our personal Lilith placement may
show where we struggle with social judgments that define how the feminine
qualities should be expressed in order to "fit in." These cultural projections
define us, but are not us. Here we may not be seen clearly.
The Last
Quarter Moon [18pi] is conjunct the star Achernar, alpha Eridanus [16pi] which
marks the end of Eridanus, the River
flowing into the Universal Sea. Aratus
called Eridanus “The River of Many Tears”. The symbol of a river entering the sea points to endings and new beginnings,
it refers to freeing humankind from outdated illusions and outmoded conventions
of thought.
The Moon
is square a Sun-Mars [18-19 ge] conjunction
which is the reason for the emotional reaction to Tim Hunt’s insensitive
statement. Here Sun and Mars are
conjunct the stars of Orion. About this area Diana Rosenberg writes, “they act
on their beliefs and do not listen or relate easily , often failing to see the
outcome of their decisions and actions, seeming to feel there is some “divine
right” underlying their impulses”.
