Strange and indifferent opinion........floats across the globe.



Strange and indifferent opinion........floats across the globe. The first notable notation (sight) from an astronomical conception; 

 

There are no planetary bodies occupying the Fixed, solid images.  

 

Although, note, the Moon will transit through Leo (Sun's home) over the next 2.5 days, the Leader of the diurnal Sects fixed dwelling, This is only a transitory moment.

 

 Another interesting observation is Mercury has just entered the divide of unknown. (Obliquity - earthly plane) Mercury is classed geocentrically as Out of Bounds, (Southern declination 24 degrees, not seen from the north) as the mythological stories inform us, He She is well a custom to these journeys into unfamiliar, out of the ordinary Zones.

 

 I mentioned last week that Mercury was undergoing an alchemical transformation, re-emerging from the Solar Light, changing Teams. (From Lunar to Solar).

 

 Which brings me to the very potent observation, Saturn, for the last two weeks has also been undergoing a transformation. 

Saturn, on November 30, 2015, will be in the Heart of the furnace. The Alchemical forging will be intensified. At a little past the midnight hour, (UT) Greenwich,  Saturn is forced to surrender to Helios's nuclear fusion.

 

So what does this mean? Well Saturn will now join the Solar Sect.

 

 He will reluctantly give service to the Limited side. ( He's always reluctant, regardless which team he's aligned with!) Containment and consolidation, repression, control, restraint. Saturn is moving very fast, contra to his nature. Whereas he has been indecisive, hesitant in his external expression, he will now (better or for worse) be strong & resolute, albeit too rash and decisive.

 

 From an observational retrospective view Saturn's entry into the Fiery mutable image of the Archer (Sagittarius) saw the secular, religious & impious dispossessed on the move, joined by arrows of flight. Evicted, turned away, homeless, disinherit isolated & opportunistic people, roaming away - (Jupiter in Virgo -Steward of the Archer, (Sagittarius) along ways from home -unable to give assistance without difficulties)

However, if you may have noticed since Saturn was captured by the Rays of the Solar leader, (Sun) the Walls, Barriers have been erected in due haste. 

 

Rings of Fire surround the dispossessed. Now when Saturn re-emerges from his forced amalgamation - one side will be dominant. (authoritarian)

 

Before this happens there will be,, at the passing of the hour, as mentioned a brief moment for the world to unite and See reason. However as the story of reality informs us this very rarely occupies the human Mind!!.

 

A note; the markets and commodities, discussions and judgements will now find stabilisation, at least for the next quarter.

Royal Exaltation - Full Moon

Royal Exaltation - Full Moon

There is objective intention to the cosmic order - The heavens above!

The current astronomical appearances of the planets in their morning rising, is announcing, (as it always has) it's (Astrological) symbolic message; (subjective internal intention).

This announcement is very Royal, as we shall SEE - the coming Full ripening Moon - Moon's exaltation -

New Moon in Libra - The Scales on the equatorial horizontal line.


New Moon in Libra - The Scales on the equatorial horizontal line.
The downward descent - the declining - Fall, depression. The exaltation of Saturn, as we move into withdrawn Light. The gradual decline, unable to see in the perfect light.
All related  astronomical expressions, which underpins the coming Seeding. Venus the lord - ruler -dispositor of the Seeding, is also poorly placed. A falling from grace - the united, disconnected. entangled. Whilst She has been blessed by the Royal Star, watcher of the North -Regulus and is adorning the heralding of the light.
These are action disassociated with her true being, Aphrodite is our essence of unconditional Love -universal, unlimited. However when contra to Sect and touched by the heat- intensity of the masculine disposition, this expression is directed externally. An outward Ego personification.
As Venus approaches Mars & Jupiter, all three planets find themselves in unfamiliar and widely divergent, irreconcilable circumstances. With the trine from Pluto, control is oversized, manipulative and oppressive. With Mercury co-joined to the dragon's head in the atmosphere of noticeable change, thought ought to be balanced. The appearance of clouds upon the horizon and a limp dry breeze blowing toward the Heart of the Fiery Road, vigorous containment is suggested.
Jupiter is the witness to this seeding, however as I suggested last week he is unable to provide the proper advise, he's far away from home. And you only need think what that is like when your away, in a strange land, caught up in matters that you have no control over. It is difficult to phone home when there is no reception!!!!!!!!!!!!

On the Wings of an Eagle I Fly

Mercury - In Air -Libra, Triplicity lord of the Night: The Wing messenger; On the Wings of an Eagle I fly. He will bring together the union and cooperation of justice. The reasonableness of thought.

However, yes there's always a however! What you thought you had negotiated will be held-up. Detail and maybe changes in those plans. Around September 14th 2015, Mercury will make contact with a sluggish Lady ! - Venus will now be moving direct, but very slow -and then Mercury will Station retrograde.

Ah just when you thought it was all going to plan!!! Eclipse -Eclipse, Solar and Lunar, my, my on September 13th, the day before mentioned, a partial total solar eclipse at 20 degrees Virgo.

This astrological numbered - 18 North Saros 125, new Moon eclipse will trigger many thorny Cerebral psychological issues, don't worry be happy may seem a long way off!! The Mental mind will be on a merry-go-round, don't hold on to tight. Sept, 19th, a week before lunar full moon eclipse on Sept 28th, Saturn enters Sagittarius.

This entry will be somewhat dampened, as Mars enters Virgo on Sept 25th. This ingress by Mars will trigger a difficult square to Saturn which will linger up until the Lunar eclipse. Then with the Fireworks done and dusted you clean up the rubbish leftover. Well sort off, the following weeks will see Mars meet Jupiter and Venus square Saturn.

Oh that's the Greek theatre for the next month or so. Buy your tickets now, as the crowds will gather and the queue &; cues' will get longer, and you don't want miss this epic long play. Or do you?

Jupiter enters the Virgin Virgo



Jupiter in Virgo - Jupiter's time in the image of Lion/Leo is coming to an end. @ 21:11hrs (9:11pm) AEST -10, Sydney, Australia, 11 August 2015, Jupiter will ingress into the image of the Virgin/Virgo.
This ingress will be of great significants for the divine Goddess of harvest.
Already we see the first plants grown and eaten in space. Some 365kms above the earth Astronauts Scott Kelly, Kjell Lindgren, and Kimiya Yui all munched on red romaine lettuce yesterday afternoon,  this produce was grown on the International Space Station. It was the first time people have eaten food cultivated in space.

Jupiter's ingress will be witnessed by the royal watcher of the North. A powerful forceful and dynamic triple star. Places of worship around the globe, no matter the faith, will be venerated. Like a procession military tribunal, those who have committed unvirtuous acts will be Justly dealt with. Church and state.

 Attention to detail. While some may suggest, not to get overly fussed with detail. For me, who has a Mercury/Jupiter partile conjunction in Virgo, it's hard not to. I have one phase for Jupiter in Virgo - Mundane to the Divine. Add Mercury and you sacred, secrete Celestial angelic knowledge transmitted.

Saturn & Mars


Last Sunday July 26th, I posted this analysis;

On August 3rd & 4th, 2015, in the early dawn sky, Mars the planet associated with wild, reckless & untamed  energy, ( until given spiritual guidance), will make his first helical rise (15 degrees from the Sun) for the year. The planet's first appearance "proper" in this new contra Sect phase, will have many varied influences, depended upon the global positioning of the country.

An example is seen here in Sydney, Australia, Mars will make its first exterior rise ahead of the Sun on August 4th. This  helical appearance will also carry many interesting nuances. Mars will commence this new phase (26 degrees Cancer) on what is known as a Tropical Cardinal Lunar Station. These stations, (13 degrees apart - commencing from 00:00 Aries - Cancers - Libra and Capricorn,) accentuate the energy.

 Adding to this wild energy release, helical rise, new phase, will be the witnessing by the confine lord, Saturn and the southern enigmatic lead star Procyon, (a star of some unknowable, mysterious association, found in the constellation Canis Minor) the star, when link to Mars, has a wild canine correlation. Transiting Saturn has just stationed direct,  and is in the late degrees of the Scorpion. The transiting Moon is in the late degrees of Pisces in the confines of Mars.

Suggesting a powerful wild, undomesticated & feral watery release of energy awaits its formation & design. Furthermore this enigmatic force will also be carrying the weight of the ripe, full moon.

With all due respect; On July 29th, 2015, @ the reported time of 09:04hrs, Reunion Island, La Digue, Seychelles, Saint Andre, USZ3-04:00hrs, "Johnny Begue, the gardener who stumbled across the Boeing 777 debris on the beach, has been chatting to reporters who have just arrived on Reunion Island. He said he toyed with the idea of using the debris as a decoration, but decided against it out of respect for the victims' families.

I was working and around 9 o'clock I went to see if I could find a stone to crush some chillies. That was when I found the debris and realised from the roundness of it that it was from a plane. There were screws and everything, I came down to look at it and called my friends who helped me. To begin with we thought about taking it to use as a decoration, but then we thought about the families...we thought if this was a crash then there will be families of the people who died and we should respect them. "http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/worldnews/asia/malaysia/11772187/MH370-debris-found-live.html

Making use of this information I was interested in following this statement. I presented a lecture/PowerPoint presentation 6th August 2014, @ The SMSA Pitt St, Sydney, for -The Sydney Astrological Research Society Inc. And also added comments on my website and blog, as well as FB page postings. So for me and for the interest of astrological understanding I will review some of those statements in light of this new info. And here is the relevant charts: If you wish to cast other charts, please make use of this info. Point; A report of the debris being washed up in May, 2015, is also reported. So making use of the most relevant chart here makes sense to me anyway. (Mercury RX Station on May, 19th 2015, for both locations is very interesting. (Kuala Lumpur, and Saint Andre)

The present Venus Station RX is also very interesting. As posted on FB, July 17th, 2015, Venus unites: And the Saturn Station direct.

The event chart for the departure of MH-370; (00:41am, KL) - Ascendant, Sagittarius 07 degrees rising, Lord of Sag is exalted Jupiter, placed in the 8th house, (loss & death - Exalted - blown up and enlarged) Regiomontanus 05, Cancer house cusp.

Jupiter is the traditional lord of Pisces, along with the modern assigned steward, Neptune. Pisces is the 4th house sign, and IC, and Neptune is conjoined to it. The house also contains the Sun/Vertex, opposition to the Lot of Fortune. (physical fortune comes from the Sun position + arc, projected from the ascendant, - minus the Moon arc.

The dispositor of Jupiter is the Moon, (ruler of Cancer), placed in Gemini upon the setting pivot, and 12th house from the 8th. Signifying the type of death or loss. The Moon is also co ruler of possessions - Collector) These two statements are important to include.

The second house is, (possessions - moveable objects - plane) Lord of Capricorn is Saturn, placed in his house of Joy, the 12th, and retrograde, contra to Sect. (Nocturnal chart).   

Third and Ninth are the travel houses, dependent upon the type of journey, adding to this is the Moon, who is multi co-representative, symbolic figure. Mercury in the third applying square to Saturn, trine Mars, and lord of the event, MC.

Finally look at the transit chart for the announced time, 09:00am, and the rx chart of Mercury. In addition to compelling charts are the current and next lunar return charts for the Event, 8th March, 2014. And last look at the Mars helical rise chart for the 3rd and 4th August, 2015, Mars at 15 degrees separation from the Sun, set for KL.

Oh what a day, Oh what a night, the day of Venus and the hour of Venus


Oh what a day, Oh what a night, the day of Venus and the hour of Venus
 - On July 25th, 2015, Venus the planet of Love, Unification, "to unite"! will station, stand still. And then start 40 days of retro- gradation.!!!!!

 The Station will be witnessed by the royal watcher of the North - The great triple star -Regulus, The Lion, Rex, Magh, The Mighty, the right thigh of this feared King of the Beast.

 At 00 degrees 46' Virgo (Confines of Mercury) and in parallel declination with Uranus, who is partile square Mars, this Venus,  40 days and 40 nights will challenge any Union that is not glued with the right bonding agent.

This upcoming present regrade, which happens mostly in the image of the Lion - Leo, will reflect back to times 8 years earlier and 8 years earlier, and again 8 years earlier. The Synodic cyclic nature of Venus is 8 -, which has a fascination of its own. You see, each 8 years, there is a mathematical numerological sequence that mostly remains unknown.

However if you Look, you will see - starting with the first 8, then 2x8 = 16, which is 7, and 24, which 6, and 32, which is 5, and so on. There is a lot to gain from this subtle expression of mathematical nuance.

A new Moon, a cardinal overload!




 
What a holy, sanctified - divine & dignified Affair - The day of Jupiter, the hour of the Moon. July 16th, 2015, Sydney, Australia. and across the Globe.
A new Moon, a cardinal overload! And an exalted watery indulgence. Mars-Mercury co-joined to the Southern fixed stars Sirius and Canopus on the MC - Midheaven.

Sun and Moon co-joined to  the fixed star Pollux. Mercury and Mars are in parallel conjunction with the fixed star Hamal, on the outer bounds of the Earth plane.

Venus is conjoined to the Royal star Regulus, and about to station!

The fixed star Spica is rising along with Arcturus. And transiting Uranus is in a parallel conjunction with Betelgeuse.

And finally, Mercury and Mars are in a diametrically opposed positions to Pluto, who is being visited by New Horizons, the Earth sent spacecraft.
And there is so much more - Chiron in a platic trine to Saturn/Sun/Moon and Mars/Mercury, along with Neptune. Uranus at Saturn's Fall -(depression) in fire trine to Jupiter/Venus++++

 So what's this all mean??? It must have something it can offer the collective consciousness of this human society.

If ever there was a day of sublime virtuosity!!! well here it is...+++++++++++++

Hot Air balloon!! is blowing in the Wind.


Hot Air balloon!! is blowing in the Wind.
On May 22nd, 2015, I posted on FB, about the cat and mouse involving Sun and Mars. Well! that game is still on!

And now we are reaching the culmination - climax!! Over the next 30hrs or so, Sun and Mars intensify their relationship.

Whether this is a good thing or not? depends on the actions you wish to carry out. You see, or  should I say, you don't see - as Mars will be hidden completely over the next 16 hrs.

The Arabic word is Cazimi - the Hellenistic is in the Chariot - Heart of the Sun.

 At 16:00hrs BST, Greenwich, UK, Mars will surrender to the Light.

He will undergo a change of Heart. the archetype qualities of the Fiery planet Mars, the apparent nature will be transformed. This Synodic conjunction marks are new beginning. Be aware this new energy will be empowered under the gaudiness of Jupiter - The confine -Bound/Term lord, will lay witness to this embodiment.

Those in Military positions of Power - Good or evil will feel this new surge of Hot/dry/Airy courtship.

Impulsive ignition, thought provoking. Rocket powered wind is blowing your way.

China & the US, contestation over the South China Sea!

China & the US, contestation over the South China Sea!

It's China's 65th, whole sign, Profected year - And making use of the new chart for China I presented at UAC in 2012, (The private Life of Chairman Mao, by Zhisui - Li - 1st October, 1949 -10:13am, Beijing, AWST) this chart is highlighting China's 6/10/1st houses.
The 65th Profected year falls in the 6th, whole sign house, Aries, with the Lord Mars in Leo, located in the natal tenth house, co-joined to Pluto.

China's labour force is hard at work, in the first half of 2015, China has sand dredgers and concrete plants working overtime. It has turned a reef into a artificial island, about 3km long and up to 300 metres wide. Aptly named - Fiery Cross Reef. This reef in the middle of the South China Sea, was transformed overnight. And now satellite images taken in mid-May show it boasts an almost completed runway, three cement plants and a harbour.

China's controversial claim to the bulk of the South China Sea via its "nine-dash" line, is subject to a thorny web of territorial disputes involving the Philippines, Vietnam, Malaysia, Brunei and Taiwan. The South China sea is a key shipping corridor for trillions of dollars of trade – including more than half of Australia's merchandise trade. There is also an abundance of oil and natural gas underneath the sea which can be exploited. The areas in contestation are the Paracel Islands and the Spratly Islands.

Just recently Fiery Cross Reef saw a tense encounter between a US spy plane and the Chinese navy. The exchange was filmed by CNN, which was granted rare access by the US navy.

US, Admiral Harry Harris, commander of the US Pacific Fleet, claims China is creating a "Great Wall of Sand" , China is becoming more assertive with its actions in the South China Sea.

Australia is also been drawn into the conflict. Australia has a $150 billion trade relationship with China. This can be seen quite clearly within the context of the new 1st October, 1949 -10:13am AWST, astrological chart. Since Saturn entered Sagittarius, China's economical growth has slowed, more on this later!

The coming Full Moon in Sagittarius and subsequent Sun ingress into Cancer - Cancer ingress, will strengthen the tension globally and in particular, escalate the contestation. Furthermore the coming retrograde of Venus in late July, should see a major amplification.

The transit chart for the full moon on June 3rd, 2015, Beijing, features a Yod, the finger of God, as it is sometimes called.

This transit chart located at the capital Beijing, has the Sagittarius Moon conjunct the MC, and the featured Yod has Mars/Mercury combust the Sun in Gemini, conjunct the IC, sextile to Jupiter in Leo in the 6th, with the apex of the Yod directed to Pluto in Capricorn in the 11th house.

When viewed as a bi-wheel with the new China natal chart a realistic picture emerges. I recently posted on my FB page, and on my website - http://www.gregoryclare.com/worldaffairs.html (see below - )
that this lunation cycle, which featured the new moon on the fixed star Algol, would see a fiery expression of its action. When as mentioned this new moon is placed on a bi-wheel with the new China natal chart, the realisation of the tremendous manifestation is brought to bear!

This new chart has 24 degrees Taurus, on the Descendant, the setting point. So this lunation cycle which culminates on June 3rd, began with a inauspicious- ominous event! The lunation fell directly on China's 7th house cusp. The 7th in mundane astrology in is a representation of - Ministry of Foreign policy, social consciousness, support or opposition for foreign policy, international disputes and War.

The full moon falls across China's 2/8 axis's. The second has a correspondence to national wealth, and the eighth is national debt, privy councils and things hidden.

The full moon as mentioned features a Yod, involving Mercury/Sun/Mars/Jupiter, with the apex falling on Pluto. Transiting Jupiter is moving through China's 10th house, and is co-joined to their natal Mars/Pluto conjunction. This transit of Jupiter through the 10th is emphasising the public image of the forceful nature of this natal Mars/Pluto conjunction. The Iron fist is being clinched!

Coupled with this is the fact that this is a Mars ruled year for China. The 6th profected house and its ruler Mars, are the major Time lords until October 2015, Venus then takes over. The 6th house is the ministry for defence, armed forces and working class. Is it any wonder we are hearing and witnessing the Red fired clinched iron fist. Adding to this is the contestable nature of retrograde Mercury, co-joined and hidden behind transiting Sun/Mars.
This Mercury/Mars co-joining, which has been at play for several weeks now, is seen as (Mars) a loss of reputation, disreputable behaviour and (Mercury) accusation and lawsuits.

So how will all this turn out? Well this is a big question to answer! We need now to examine the US and Australian charts. The chart I make use of for Australian mundane governmental affairs is the Gwen Stoney, Australian Federation, 1st, January, 1901, 13:35am, Sydney chart. And for the US I make use of the little used, but highly accurate, 3rd, September 1783, Paris Treaty, 10:21am, UT, relocated, Washington, DC, chart. ( Campion.N. World Horroscopes)

The Stoney chart has Sagittarius as the ninth whole sign, corresponding to foreign affairs and commercial trade. The house of disputes and war, the seventh is Libra, and the lord is Venus, who is placed in the natal ninth. Mars the mundane symbol for war is in Virgo in the natal 6th. Transiting Mars is moving through the natal whole sign 3rd, opposing the natal stellium in the 9th. This full moon will highlight these houses. But as for the future and our relationship with China and the US, this is a much more complex question to answer.

For the US this coming full moon will fall in their 10/4th axis's, using the Paris Treaty chart. More of a concern with the US is the up-coming Cancer ingress. More on this later, but it spells troubling times ahead!

When each of the nations are viewed through a bi-wheel with each other, a interrelationship nature appears. With Australia's Sagittarius packed 9th house falling in China's 2nd, and in reverse China's 2nd falling in Australia's, ninth. And adding to this wealth of trade is Australia's natal exalted Taurus 2nd house Moon, (Commercial commodity trade) falling on China's 7th house axis's. China's natal 9th house of Cancer falls in Australia's 4th, (is it any wonder China is on its way to own a vast share in Australia's Land).
Following the same logic making use of the US and China a similar pattern emerges, with the US 9th, whole sign Taurus falling in China's 7th and China's natal Mars/Pluto in Leo, falling in the US 12th. A very intriguing picture emerges when studied from this viewpoint. I will have a lot more to say on this in the coming weeks. For now it is aptly appropriate to say that tension will only build as the Earth's limited resources are put under increasing pressure by a ever expanding China and a equally defiant superpower and superior equipped US Air force.

Posted on May 15th via my website  http://www.gregoryclare.com/worldaffairs.html


There is a New Moon coming @ 26 degrees Taurus. This union will take place in the presence of fixed star Algol...!! This takes place in the constellation of Perseus - The Prince, Ras al-Ghul, the head of the demon -the Gorgon's Head.
To the Chinese, Tseih She - mound of corpses.

The star according to B. Brady (Fixed Stars) has a paran of laying hidden from about April 15th, until May 26th. The Star Heliacally rises at 5 degrees Gemini around May 26th, at latitude 30 degrees South. From 49 degrees South, the star never rises, North it has permanent curtailed passage. Described by most authors as Wild and Raw feminie energy.

This translates to - any country which lays within 20 degrees of the equator will have Algol heliacally rising with the new moon. Quite a inauspicious- ominous event.

The lord of this new moon, Venus is herself in a compromised position. Aphrodite is extremely out of bounds at 25 degrees 42' North. The Goddess is not attached to the earthly realm.

Equally Mercury who is stationing retrograde, is also out of bounds. Furthermore as Mars rises, hidden under the beams of the Sun, Algol rises with him, in opposition to retrograde Saturn.

The architect of this calamity is a burnt-fired Mars, in the house of the contestation master of tricky, stationed Mercury.
Interesting times are ahead -literally speaking, hot stagnated air condensed by a unrefined nature. Add to this rotting & decaying air, Mars is also square Neptune.
And what comes to mind is as follows courtesy of Neil Young, "My My, Hey Hey (Out Of The Blue)"
My my, hey hey
Rock and roll is here to stay
It's better to burn out
Than to fade away
My my, hey hey.
Out of the blue
and into the black
They give you this,
but you pay for that
And once you're gone,
you can never come back
When you're out of the blue
and into the black.
The king is gone
but he's not forgotten
This is the story
of a Johnny Rotten
It's better to burn out
than it is to rust
The king is gone
but he's not forgotten.
Hey hey, my my
Rock and roll can never die
There's more to the picture
Than meets the eye.
Hey hey, my my.

The Lunar eclipse April 4, 2015

The Lunar eclipse April 4, 2015, promises much excitement.
The solar eclipse on March 20, 2015, marked the commencement of the astronomical & astrological new year.

This lunation is a auspicious moment and coincides with the vernal equinox, the Sun is caught hanging over the Gateway to Life. The Sun at this instant is hovering over the horizon, as the atmosphere bends and refracts at the weight of such a grand splendour. Light tries so hard to appear, almost as if it is a rebirth.

So what's all this translate to in astrological language? The tangible & non-tangible, comes to mind.

Furthermore this eclipse lunation cycle -(new moon/full moon) is uniquely special,  the positions of the Lights correspond to the first & second lunar stations. (00:00 Aries -13 Aries) The Moon's daily travel is 13 degrees of mean motion. The 8 cardinal tropical lunar mansions are exceptionally sensitive, and when lunation's fall within close proximity, expect enlarged mundane collective outward expression of the energy!

The Hindu's make use of the moon's actual motion 13 degrees 20', and subsequently use the 27 sidereal  lunar mansions, commonly referred to as the "Nakshatras". The first, of the nature of Mars and named Ashwini - Fast and Swift, however Ketu is allotted the rulership. The second Bharani,  nature of Venus.

The Lunar eclipse on April 4, 2015 has the Moon @ 14 degrees 24', Libra, on the threshold to the Fiery- way  - via-combusta. Venus is the lord of the lunar eclipse, and Jupiter is the architect, having stewardship of the confines -terms/bounds.

How this event unfolds will of course depend on location and natal placement, with regards to planetary placements for nations & nativities.

In general with Venus as lord in her own domicile, one would assume good tidings.  However there are some interesting features to consider. Venus does not aspect her masculine domicile Libra from Taurus, suggesting, Saturn as exalted ruler must attend to the affairs. Saturn is retrograde, shooting arrows behind, or striking with a ray. Conditions with reference to injustices from past karma needs to be settled, payment is due!

Mars is positioned at the Moon's exaltation, accentuating the feminine principle, so Sect allotment will play a major role in determining solar or lunar distribution. Hence, chart casting, global-local  location is central to any prognostication.

Other considerations are Mercury/South Node, in Aries. This aspect can manifest in strange rationality, with the dispositor Mars in Taurus, past unconventional behaviours will be highlighted.

This unconventional theme is reinforced with the Sun co-joined to Uranus. Women's affairs seem destine to awaken the collective. This narrative will be a major mirror through which the collective - reflective Light is shone. The Sun/Uranus co-joining is located on the fixed star Alpheratz.

Alpha (α) Andromeda, is a  member of the royal star family. The lead star Alpheratz, is a double star and sits on the facial neck of the constellation of Andromeda. It signifies the hair falling across the Chained Woman's head.  Andromeda was freed by Perseus, metaphorically riding the wing horse, Pegasus. Perseus fell in love with Alpheratz, married her and returned the princess to the constellation Pegasus. Perseus father, Poseidon, was the instigator of the of the confinement, and ironically it was he's son who sets her free.

One final note worth considering is the Royal Family - Prince William, Duke of Cambridge & Duchess of Cambridge, Catherine Middleton. These two young heirs will no doubt feature in this lunation, as will the Princes father, Prince Charles. Their charts will be activated, as will the UK 1801 natal chart.

The lunar eclipse cast for London is very unique and distinctive. The event will see the eclipse Sun/Uranus fall on the MC and subsequent eclipse Moon, set on the IC.
Furthermore with the royal 6 degree Leo rising, expect to see Grand expressions of enthralment. Prince Charles's natal Neptune will receive the eclipse Moon partile. William and Kate natal's will also see direct partile engagement.

Hot of the press - the latest astrological news. 2015


Tony Abbott & the Liberal National Party are facing their first real diplomatic challenge. In November 2013 shortly after the Opening of the 44th, Parliament. I commented on the charts of the swearing -in of Abbott on September 13th 2013, and the opening of the first session of the 44th, Australian lower house.

I noted on my face -book stream the placement of Mars in both charts. Mars in both whole sign charts is placed in the 9th house. The 9th house represents foreign affairs & our philosophical expressions. I made the suggestion that this would be a very difficult placement.

Readdressing those comments in light of the recent sensitive events in Indonesia I would like to expand on these comments.

In the first chart, Abbott's swearing -in, (18th September 2013 @ 10:29:07, AEST, Canberra, ACT.) Mars is placed in the 9th whole sign image (sign) of the Lion, Leo. The Lion doth roar!  Mars is @ 13:14 degrees Leo. Mars is receiving a partile dexter sextile from Mercury in Libra, the dispositor Venus in the 12th house is co-joined to North Node/Saturn, in Scorpio squaring Mars.

These aspects are very difficult - Mars essential nature from a Hellenistic articulation is said to be  - separation/severance, dissociation/differentiation. This is accentuated when contra to Sect, as both Mars and Venus are. From a mundane  expression Mars has association with, public affairs of a military, police, civil servants, public executioner,  public prostitution and many other thorny & arduous affairs.

Jupiter the planet associated with judicial distribution is at present transiting retrograde in Leo, it will transit RX over the natal Abbott swearing-in position on Friday March, 20th. I suspect that we will see some very (Lion) language exchanges in relation to the 9th house over the coming weeks. The placement in both charts also highlights another very much unnoticed aspect by many. The governments mundane general significator is the lord of the 10th house, as  such the 9th is the 12th from the 10th, This shows those who are secretively plotting to bring us down as well as many other very difficult expressions.

Mercury's role here is also very confrontational, he can be when contra to Sect, (as he is) discursive reasoning. Associations with accusation and disputation, contestation and destabilisation though verbal exchange. Mercury is lord of the 10th whole sign house, and he is also the lord of the natal Sun. The sun is the leader, in this case the leader of the nations parliament. Mercury is also the lord of the 9th house Mars in Virgo, in the Opening (12th November 2013, @ 10:41, AEDT, Canberra) of the 44th parliament chart. Over the coming weeks there will be as I have mentioned on my FB page some very choleric times ahead. These will be quite combustible. We can only hope that commonsense & empathy prevail.

Mercury's function here is very pivotal, as he is also lord of the 7th house in Abbott's swearing chat. The 7th has two meaning here - as the 7th, it is our relations with others and a open expression of both parties. It is also an indicator of the reputation of the government, as it is the 10th from the 10th. The 7th house also contains the Lot of Fortune.

Finally these issues will again resurface in late July early August. This time will also be very combustible for Abbott's leadership. It may well see him replaced.

United States is entering a difficult negations period. Nuclear diplomacy is front and centre with Iran. And the US is playing a pivotal role delicately dealing with its allies.  The Islamic Republic of Iran is relentlessly pursuing nuclear weapons with the express purpose of destroying the State of Israel,” said Netanyahu. Over the coming weeks transits to the US chart will trigger some real delicate moments.

Very hot choleric time are coming.  Obama may be walking a very shaky path. One thing's for certain, that this very covert negotiations. The chart of the coming weeks see's the transiting Sun co-join natal Neptune. A the same time Mercury is co-joined to natal Pluto, with the transiting Moon activating many aspects of the US chart. http://www.gregoryclare.com/astrologicalforecastfortheusa.html

Liberal party room leadership


Oh how the political landscape changes - U might think that Uranus has something to do with these sudden changes??...Now the Liberal party room leadership- discussion, & vote is set for 09:00am, Canberra, ACT. Uranus in all probability does, however the trickster and the collector also move rather quickly, Selene -Moon, distributes, & blends the fundamental natures of the associations.

So as mentioned in my earlier post, (which can be found on FB stream https://www.facebook.com/search/results/?q=Gregory+Clare&init=public) Qld election forecast - All candidates are shown by Mercury RX (Stationing) and RX Jupiter...so if you're looking for any kind of result this another very cool correspondence -correlation.
Last weeks FB Posts -Friend me and I will respond to your request.
So...U think there's no correspondence - correlation in astrology...ha..?
strange though how it happens...anyone would think there's a cosmic consciousness...
he Architect of this ripening Moon - 14 degrees - Leo Full Moon - (Saturn) Leaders & Government may face challenges - !!!!
Australia's 44th elected government - I made a comment when first elected - suggesting this would be a rerun of the last elected government. And yes its seems to be!!! Below is the chart for the Opening of Parliament, the 44th Australian -with Prime Minister Tony Abbott. The Government is the 10th whole sign house - the lord is Venus, who is co-joined to Pluto. The leader or Prime Minister is represented by the Sun...a sticky T-square. The dispositor of the Sun is Mars/Pluto...Notice Mars is placed in the 9th house...
