Eleven
people have been killed in tornadoes in Texas, police say, with heavy rain and
snow causing deaths and disruption in a number of other states. At least eight
people died in Garland, near Dallas, five of them when their cars were blown
off a motorway. In west Texas, snow combined with high winds to cause drifts
that left a number of roads impassable. Heavy rains have caused flooding
further north, leaving 12 people dead in Missouri and Illinois. Dec.28 http://www.bbc.com/news/world-us-canada-35184869
Cardinal ingresses
of the Sun are routinely used in astro-meteorology for predicting the weather
[1]. A chart for the recent Capricorn
Ingress drawn for Dallas is shown here. Notice that Saturn occupies the IC and is square Neptune
on the descendant. The ingress charts are interpreted using the 4th house as
the main indicator. Here Saturn is conjunct the star Antares on the 4th
cusp. This star is part of the Indian lunar mansion Jyestha whose ruler is
Indra, King of the Gods, connected with the sky and rain. Among its
manifestations, Diana Rosenberg lists “storms (extreme barometric lows)” and
gives the following examples:
There was a solar eclipse here in Nov. 440
CE, the year the city of Ys in Brittany was “submerged in a great flood” and in
441 CE “the sea submerged great parts of Wales”; these stars were transited in
1530 when floodwaters driven by high winds smashed Holland dikes: 400,000
drowned; at the Winter Solstice of 1886: a vicious winter followed on the Great
Plains: hundreds of thousands of cattle froze to death in blizzards; in 1881 in
Haipong, China typhoon killed thousands; at the Great Galveston Hurricane
of 1900 the city was totaled, 8000
killed; in 1969 when Hurricane Camille
hit the Gulf Coast (400 killed, 400,000 homeless); at the 1974 “Super
Tornado Putbreak”: 148 tornadoes in 2 days swept through 12 states, killing 324;
at the solar and lunar eclipses of May-June 1993 during continuous rain that
led to a great Mississippi flood; in 1999 when tornadoes hit Oklahoma and
Kansas and many others.
In addition
we have Neptune on the descendant conjunct the star Fomalhaut.
Alpha (α) Piscis Austrinus, Fomalhaut, is a
reddish star in the mouth of the Southern Fish. The Southern Fish is a separate
constellation to Pisces, lying much further to the South, though in ancient
legend it is often referred to as the parent of the zodiacal pair. The area in which it lies has an heavy
emphasis upon constellations with watery imagery, the goat-fish (Capricorn),
the whale (Cetus), the water-pourer (Aquarius), the fishes (Pisces), and the
dolphin (Delphinus) all located nearby, obviously earmarking this region as one
that related to the rainy season of the ancient year, by which many of its
stars are associated with floods or troubles at sea. The Southern Fish is
usually depicted on star maps at the feet of Aquarius, where it swallows up the
water poured from his urn [2].
Therefore, the
severity of the Texas tornadoes and floods is essentially the effect of the two stars Antares and Fomalhaut
in the Capricorn Ingress chart.
