The inaugural U.S. flight of one of Airbus’s newest
aircraft models was supposed to be a big deal, showcasing the impressive new
jumbo jet on its very first trip from New York’s John F. Kennedy Airport. Instead,
it was spectacularly terrifying and embarrassing fail. The high tech jet’s
computer system aborted it’s own takeoff — because it deemed the runway too
short. The airplane even had screens on
each seatback via which the passengers could watch the taxi and takeoff as it
happened. Unfortunately, rather than watching the plane soar to 30,000 feet, it
taxed, picked up speed — and then came to a startling and screeching halt. Dec.

Mundane
astrology, the study of heavenly cycles upon nations, is the most ancient
branch of astrology in which the affairs of a nation are judged from the
horoscope set up at the time of its official inauguration, and various phenomena
such as eclipses, lunation and ingresses. H.S. Green in his book “Mundane or
National Astrology” has laid down the principles of mundane astrology with
several examples to illustrate how they work. In Chapter XIII, “Transits and
Directions in Mundane Astrology” he explains how directions to angles are
calculated.
“The place of an eclipse (and for that
matter any other significant configuration) may be directed in a mundane map,
and the direction is always to the cusp of the next of the four angles at which
it will arrive in the ordinary course of mundane rotation. This will constitute
the conjunction or the opposition of the midheaven or of the ascendant.
The reader will, of course, note that
although it is possible to direct the place of an eclipse to an angle in this
way, the day so indicated is not the only time when the effect of the eclipses
are felt. Some of these effects are usually manifested quickly after the
eclipse, just as they are with an ordinary New Moon; others may be experienced
under a transit; and yet others about the date indicated by directions to the
angles”.
Regular
readers will be aware that the principles enunciated above broadly constitute
the methods followed at this blogsite. It was felt necessary to outline the
well known method clearly so that any confusion in the reader’s mind is removed.
To explain
the event mentioned in the news let us start with the last lunar eclipse chart
drawn for New York. Notice that this chart has a significant Grand Cross
straddling the meridian axis. Here Neptune on the MC is conjunct the star theta (θ) Pegasus, Biham, in the
head of the Flying Horse – a perfect ancient symbol for a modern day airliner. Neptune is opposite Mars (speed and
recklessness) which completes the Grand Cross with Admetus and Saturn (stoppage,obstruction,
brakes, delay). To complete the picture,
the asteroid Phaethon conjoins Admetus.
PHAETHON: Instances that involve cars,
transport, driving; other forms of recklessness—feeling out of control—as
though you’ve taken on more than you can handle; having trouble keeping to the
middle of the road! [1]
ADMETUS: Facing blockages; biding your time;
encountering delays, frustrations, complications or the need for something else
to happen BEFORE success or progress; dealing with raw materials (including
stone, lumber, etc.,) packaging, inventory and storage; having cramps or other
indications that reveal a tightening to endure/persevere/hang in there; issues
with self-containment, shunning; literal and behavioral “cold.” Narrowing or
specialization. [1]
If we now
progress the eclipse chart to Dec. 13, the date of the news, we find the Grand
Cross now aligned with the horizon axis triggering the event.
