‘Rasputin?
A horse thief, a mad monk, a fraud with hypnotic powers, a priest-charlatan who
manipulated stupid, hysterical women, a flagellant sectarian and pervert, a
criminal who ruled the Russian Empire, dictating all policies and making all
political appointments through bribery, a debauchee who organized orgies, a
drunkard (like all Russians), a primitive barbarian, a Satanist, a German spy,
the reason for the downfall of Russia, even his name means ‘depraved’. In reality, not one bit of the above has been
proved true, including that he was a debauchee and a drunkard, and most of it
is patently untrue. It is all classic self-justifying Russophobia which says
‘Russians are primitive, we are superior, therefore we can do anything we
like’. He was certainly not mad, never a priest, monk, thief or spy, never a
flagellant sectarian or a Satanist, and had very little if any political
influence. September 3 http://www.events.orthodoxengland.org.uk/the-real-gregory-rasputin/
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. This article was
published by St John's Orthodox Church, Colchester in its September blogposts.
At Colchester, the upcoming Saturn-Neptune square straddles the horizon axis.
The September 1 solar eclipse activates this square.
About the eclipse Ralfee Finn writes [1]:
This solar eclipse
has the potential to be exceptionally powerful because it forms a T-Square to
the final exact square between Saturn and Neptune on September 10. The ongoing
square between Saturn and Neptune has been and continues to be about knowing the
difference between fact and fiction. At worst, under the influence of this
solar eclipse those already committed to veiling the truth will be spreading
even more stories intended to distract, bamboozle and manipulate already
agitated emotional bodies. Consider it an extended, endless episode of Wag the
Dog. At best, this eclipse could reveal previously hidden information with
the power to clarify muddy waters and provide vital details. And this is
not just in the political arena. The power of this T-square is sure to be felt
in individual lives. So if you’ve been telling tales to yourself or others or
living a lie, get ready for a reckoning.
On September 2, the transit Sun opposes Neptune and
places the Sun-Saturn-Neptune T-square once again straddling the horizon axis
at Pokrovskoje, Russia – the birthplace of Rasputin [2]. And finally although
Rasputin is dead and gone, his lunar return chart speaks to us. It carries the
Saturn-Neptune- Node T-square on the horizon axis. It is almost as though the
spirit of the man was reaching out through time asking that his name be cleared!
