The
Grolier Codex, an ancient document that is among the rarest books in the world,
has been regarded with skepticism since it was reportedly unearthed by looters
from a cave in Chiapas, Mexico, in the 1960s. But a meticulous new study of the
codex has yielded a startling conclusion: The codex is both genuine and likely
the most ancient of all surviving manuscripts from ancient America. The
study, Houston said, “is a confirmation that the manuscript, counter to some
claims, is quite real. The manuscript was sitting unremarked in a basement of
the National Museum in Mexico City, and its history is cloaked in great drama. Sept.7 http://news.brown.edu/articles/2016/09/mayacodex
The worldview underlying astrology sees all of reality as
symbolic in nature. To the symbolist, the heavenly bodies are threads within a
great tapestry of affinities and correspondences. Thus even when an article is
published, the symbolist can find important clues connecting the contents of
the article with the planetary configurations at that time. The article on the codex that was lying unrecognized in
the basement of the National Museum in Mexico City was published on Sept.7 just
two days before the first quarter Moon. A chart for the Moon phase at Mexico
City has the Saturn-Neptune square prominently placed on the horizon axis. As
in previous posts [1][2][3] here too the
square continues to be about knowing the difference between fact and fiction.
