Ganymede
abducted by Zeus
Students
at an elite boarding school in the US were sexually abused by at least 12
members of staff over a period of four decades, according to a report. Choate
Rosemary Hall in Connecticut, which includes former President John F Kennedy
among its alumni, published the findings following an investigation. Allegations
of abuse dating from the 1960s were handled internally at the school, the
report said. The school acknowledged the findings, adding: "We profoundly
apologise." April 15 http://www.bbc.com/news/world-us-canada-39604353
This incident is best understood through the lens of the sidereal
Capricorn Ingress chart drawn for Wallingford, CT, where Choate Rosemary Hall
is located. Not only is the
Jupiter-Uranus-Pluto-Sun T-square aligned with the meridian but
additionally we have a square from
Saturn in the 5th to a Mars-Venus in the 8th. The 5th house rules young people as
well as schools and educational institutions [1]. Venus-Mars is a combination
associated with sexual activity. When combined with Saturn which represents
older authority figures we get the picture of sexual abuse of children by those
in charge. Venus is also conjunct stars
of Aquarius. Aquarius was Ganymede – a naked youth kidnapped by Zeus. Diana
Rosenberg links this area with “sexual pedophilia”.
If we now progress the ingress chart to April 15, the date
of the news, the Jupiter-Uranus-Pluto-Sun T-square aligned with the meridian
now reaches the horizon axis and is thereby triggered. Uranus [20ar] is placed
among the stars of King Cepheus and the chained Princess Andromeda. This is an
area that Diana Rosenberg links to father-daughter issues including possible
incest. But more generally, the King can stand for any authority figure to whom
a younger person has to submit. With Jupiter opposite Uranus, there arises the
possibility of a lucky break or the opportunity (Jupiter) to bring to light
(Uranus) what was scandalous or hidden (Pluto). Here we may also recall that
Pluto was the mythological god who had abducted Persephone.
