^Recovering from Timidity?^

Moon in Leo-->Virgo
/moon goes void-of-course at 3:14p PT | 6:14p ET | 11:14p UT
until it enters Virgo at 9:59p PT | 12:59a(Th) ET | 5:59a(Th) T

The hassle over school killings and gun control is astrologically predictable because some of the most violent incidents in U. S. history, such as the assassination of JFK, occurred while Mars was either at or opposite the position of the U.S. natal Mars at 20 Gemini. Mars was approaching that, by less than ten degrees, on February 14 when the Florida shootings occurred, and it is now exactly at 20 Sagittarius while the debate over "what to do" rages on.

Further, a major configuration is Jupiter in Scorpio, sign of death, tri-septile Uranus in Aries, sign of guns. (I am a sun-sign Aries and do not like to call my sign that of "guns" but in a symbolic sense it is, even though millions of good Aries people do not own or care about guns. It is a fire sign ruled by Mars; one can "fire" a gun. Enough said. Mars of course also rules young males.) 

Mars is square Venus, Mercury, and Neptune through all of this, all potentially violent aspects, especially the first two. One of Nikolas Cruz's friends thought he was upset about losing a girlfriend (Mars square Venus). That may be why he chose Valentine's Day. The square between the male and female planets began one to two days before that. 

One could ponder the above astrological facts and write a long essay about them. Not here, not now. I have been very ill, perhaps my own individual reaction to these aspects.

Wednesday:

A wooden bridge over a chasm, a man at its end hesitating to trust himself on it.  Fearful disposition; inclined to doubt everything, and suspect even his best friends.  c

The ascendant enveloped in gloom and blackness.  The degree of death. By devoting their energies to the spiritual side of their nature, they may find comfort.  c 

A wild horse leaping a barrier.  Restless under restraint. Free and open in expressing thoughts and feelings. Adventurous; contempt for peril.  Liberty.  b

A warrior in helmet drawing a long bow to which the fletch is duly set.  Strong character, set purpose, knowledge of future events. Or, weakness which depends on the hazard of life; carelessness in vanity; self-inflation.  Speculation.  b 

A child and a dog with borrowed eyeglasses.  Examination.  s

Spiritist phenomena.  Sensitivity.  s

Crowds coming down the mountain to listen to one man.  Appeal.  s


It appears that doubt and defeat have a foothold, even thoughts of death, until one finds a spiritual poise which enables one to leap over these barriers of doubt like the wild horse rejoicing in its liberty. 

Then one feels ready for anything, drawing a long bow toward the future. But this could be weakness in disguise or self-inflation.

So one considers things carefully, like the child and the dog using borrowed eyeglasses to fathom whatever they may about this strange world. Who knows, they may even penetrate beyond the mysteries of apparent death into a realm where spiritist phenomena, or happy evidences of the reality of immortality, bring them comfort. We might well emulate them. 

(I had actually been planning to present a short discussion of Leslie Kean's wonderful book, Surviving Death, Wednesday evening at a spiritual group. Will "the degree of death," functioning now as my illness, prevent me from doing that, or will this "boy" with his "dog" borrow Leslie Kean's eyeglasses and bravely go to the meeting and be "free and open in expressing thoughts and feelings" like the wild horse? That would include braving the void-of-course period during which the meeting occurs. Time will tell.)
