Young people in India have traditionally had their
marriages arranged by their families but now, armed with smartphones and dating
apps, some are taking control of their own love lives. Simon Maybin spoke to
three couples who met online. March 29. http://www.bbc.com/news/magazine-35890967
The lunar
eclipse of March 23 occurred in Libra, the sign linked to marriage and
partnerships. In a previous post [1] we
discussed how the eclipse was pointing out the need to find companions and
partners outside one’s ownkind/“family
or tribe”. At London, where the news mentioned above was published, the eclipse
was significantly placed on the meridian. ( And if we were to draw the eclipse
for a longitudinal line going through central India, the eclipse would be
placed on the horizon.)
A cursory
look at the eclipse chart shows that it is part of a Grand Cross containing the
TNPs Hades-Kronos and Cupido. Keyphrases
[2] and delineations for the TNPs are taken
from Martha Wescott and are summarized below:
KRONOS: authority figures; laws; rules and
regulations; authoritative opinion.
HADES: Disgust/distaste; debilitation or
deterioration; interest in the past (inc. past lives)—thus history and
primitive origins; mistakes; research into root causes.
CUPIDO: Issues in
the family history; partner or family members; marriage.
Hades-Kronos:
Reactions to just plain “dumb” rules and regulations from the past; deterioration of
authority; times when opinions, regardless of how authoritatively stated, are
based on misapprehension, very little information, a key-hole view of a
situation – or on an out and out fallacy. (combine this with Cupido and we are
talking about authority figures in the family and issues connected with partnership
and marriage.)[3]
