Desolation - Jansem
The Rohingya people historically also termed Arakanese Indians are a stateless Indo-Aryan people from Rakhine
State, Myanmar. An estimated 1.3 million Rohingyas are residents of Myanmar, while
another 1.5 million form a diaspora, with many refugees. The majority are Muslim while a minority are
Hindu. They are described by the United
Nations in 2013 as one of the most persecuted minorities in the world. UN
officials and HRW have described Myanmar's persecution of the Rohingya as
ethnic cleansing, while there have been warnings of an unfolding genocide.
Once bustling villages in Maungdaw, Northern Rakhine State,
are now eerily-silent ghost towns, littered with animal carcasses and charred
or smoldering houses. This is a result of a spate of arson incidents following
an attack on Aug 25, dubbed “Black Friday” by the Myanmar government.
While the persecution of the Rohingya people is several
decades old, the latest round of violence began on August 25 suspiciously close
to the Solar Eclipse of August 21.
A chart for the eclipse at Maungdaw has Neptune
on the MC in a paran square with Saturn on the descendant. The geocentric
waning square between Saturn-Neptune took place in 2015-16. However, the paran
square at Maungdaw at the solar eclipse
has re-energized the waning square giving it a new lease of life. It is
therefore important to understand what the Saturn-Neptune cycle stands for.
Nick Fiorenza in his essay Sociopolitical
& Personal Explorations 2016-2020 writes:
In general, a Saturn-Neptune cycle is about
the structuring of our ideologies into concretized form, whether those structures
are beliefs that uphold and defend those ideologies, or physical constructs we
build in our lives. It is also about the structuring of, as well as
constrictions about, society's ideologies and sociopolitical orders. When
Saturn and Neptune conjoin and initiate a new synodic cycle, as occurred in
1989, two primary things occur. Neptune wants to dissolve Saturn's previous
constructs and segregations into universality, and Saturn wants to solidify the
visions and ideals inspired by Neptune into societal structure, ideals which
had been gestating from the previous cycle, in essence wanting to birth a new
sociopolitical order as the cycle begins. This energetic can also accentuate
resistance from long-established sociopolitical structures to any new ideologies
trying to emerge. Thus, a Saturn-Neptune synthesis can still result in the
formation of new religious or political dogmas, their rules and regulations,
and their idealistic followings. Nonetheless, the sequence of Saturn-Neptune
cycles impel a progression in society's values and ideologies, albeit a slow
progression in Saturn's slow and methodical tempo, and a progression tempered
by the overall level of true spiritual awareness of the masses.
In the sociopolitical
arena, Saturn-Neptune cycles are about the ebb and flow of more conservative,
controlling and authoritarian ideals. Our opportunity as we enter and move
into the last quarter of this cycle is to first recognize that the structures
we have created in our lives and the limits those structures impose are the
solidification of ideologies we began to formulate starting in 1989. It impels
us to begin to consciously make changes in our lives based upon realizations we
have had about what did and did not work in practicality throughout the
previous manifestation quarter of the cycle; i.e., from 2007 until now. The
summation of these realizations may now emerge throughout this geocentric
square (2015-16) as impulses arising from within self that tell us, we need to
change. Simply, the structures we have built in our lives and in the world can
no longer support our shifting ideologies.
About Pisces, the sign Neptune occupies on the MC, Dane
Rudhyar wrote:
Pisces is an era of
storms and of wholesale disintegration. But Piscean winds of destiny may impel
men of vision and courage to discover many a "new world," as much as
they do destroy or suffocate the many who stubbornly resist change. Pisces is
an era of often sharp and violent repolarization. It is an era of purgation and
cleansing.
The “purgation and cleansing” can easily become “ethnic
cleansing”. For the stars that form the
backdrop to Neptune, Diana Rosenberg gives the following examples of “expressions
of race and religious prejudice and terrorism”.
There are chart
elements here of Jew-stalking Nazi SS Lt Col Adolph Eichmann; torturer/
murderer Captain Alfredo Aztiz, “Angel of Death” of Argentina’s Dirty War of
the 1970’s – 80’s when 30,000 were killed or “disappeared”. There were transits
to these stars in 1939 on Carnival Day in Lent when Dresden’s Jews blamed for
the Black Death, were burned alive in Altmarck Square; in 1876 at Custer’s last
stand after attacking Indian villages, Custer and his troops were annihilated by
Sioux and Cheyenne warriors at Little Big Horn; at the swearing-in of Adolph
Hitler as Chancellor of Germany, and at establishment of Dachau Concentration
camp near Munich that became an extermination camp where about 70,000 were
killed, mostly in gas chambers; at the 1992 Los Angeles riots following the
acquittal of brutal police officers; at the start of the 1994 Ruanda genocides,
when ruling majority ethnic Hutu deliberately set out to kill of minority Tutsi
and Hutu moderates: hundreds of thousands were hunted down like animals and
slaughtered and many others.
Finally, if we look
at the chart of Burma (4 Jan 1948; 4:20 am Rangoon) we find Neptune transiting
exactly over the IC [14pi] so that the current Neptune Full Moon of September 6
aligned with the meridian axis shining a light on the genocidal killing.
The Neptune transit on the IC is accompanied by a powerful
solar direction “Progressed Sun [23pi] square radix Uranus [23ge]” triggered by
transit Saturn opposite Uranus. Here Uranus is conjunct the star Al Hecka [24ge].
About this star Nick Fiorenza writes:
Al Hecka, Zeta Taurus,
the south horn, is of stalemates, standoffs, and brick walls—fighting old and
antiquated crusades—particularly of a religious-political nature—and blindly or
automatically continuing the fight out of habitual pattern even though the
original purpose behind what we were fighting for is long gone. Al Hecka can
express as beating one’s head against the wall, a relentless and futile
pursuit. Al Hecka brings attention to when the accomplishment pursued is of a
time no longer applicable—the time to surrender the physical struggle and move
onward into a field of mutual cooperation.
The minority Rohingya are Muslims descendant of Bengali migrants who began moving into the
area after the late-19th-century imposition of British colonial rule. The majority
group in this territory is the Rakhine people, who are Buddhists that inherited
the legacy of the long-standing Kingdom of Mrauk U. The clash is therefore
between two racial/religious groups and the star Al Hecka is indicating the
need to get past this struggle.
