A
conductor with the Tamil Nadu State Transport Corporation (TNSTC) was issued a
memo for letting a pigeon perched on the window of a bus travel without a
ticket earlier this week. The pigeon in question was reportedly keeping a drunk
passenger company from its perch in a window of the bus.
Late
on Thursday ( September 7) evening, the
only government bus connecting Harur town and Ellavadi, a remote tribal
village, was on its way through a forest area with more than 80 passengers,
when, just as it reached the outskirts of Harur, transport department inspectors
flagged the bus to check tickets. At the time, the drunk passenger, in his
mid-forties, had caught hold of the pigeon, and was "having a
conversation" with it. Sept. 10 http://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/city/chennai/tamil-nadu-conductor-faces-action-as-pigeon-travels-ticketless/articleshow/60445387.cms
The Full Moon of Sept. 6 fell significantly on the meridian
axis at Harur, Tamil Nadu. It was conjunct Neptune and in a wide square to
Saturn on the Ascendant. In mundane astrology, the angles are recognized to
have a large orb of influence so that aspects that that are technically wide or
separating are re-energized.
Therefore, although the Saturn-Neptune square of 2015-16 is
beginning to fade out, it can still be caught on the all important angles in
significant mundane charts. What do we know about Saturn-Neptune aspects? Well
for one thing if you have too much Saturn you are a stickler for discipline - everything is according to the rule book and
the slightest deviation is punished. Too
much Neptune and you’re a mess: drunk and lying in the gutter thinking you’re in
paradise.
Since a square aspect can bring about a crisis in issues
ruled by the planets involved it is not surprising to find that bus conductor
was hauled up by the inspectors for allowing the drunk passenger his avian travel
companion. Neptune as Dionysus is the
god of wine that can dissolve boundaries between the human and animal world so that the drunk passenger had no problems conversing with the pigeon.
And finally the chart has one last surprise for us. Saturn, which is the apex planet of the
T-square, is opposite the star Phact, alpha Columba – the Dove!
