Hi,
I am endeavouring to start a sort of a programme for collecting (decently used) clothes (from friends and co-workers) and then sending them over to countries like India and Bangladesh where there are many street children that could use them.
Since posting boxes via USPS or FedEx is quite expensive, I intend on first requesting both USPS / FedEx if they will taken on the cost of shipping. If they decline, then I may even ask one of the senior management at my place of work to take on the cost. I intend sending the boxes over about two times a year. I know someone in India that will take care of distribution locally. In Bangladesh, I will have to go via some people from Bangladesh I know here.
Question, of course, is: will the endeavour be successful?
I know that some consider the 12th house for welfare and charity, but I am not so sure about that. I think the 11th house does well for humanitarian concerns especially when involving groups (there will be at least a couple of people involved, even if initially my idea).
So, firstly, I very well like the facts that the N. Node is rightfully placed in the 9th, as this endeavour is meant for the overseas, as well as that Jupiter is on the Asc., albeit retrograde. The Moon is in Aquarius, and not that strong. Mars, I, am exalted in Cap, but will receive a square from Mercury, which rules the 10th house. Since I plan on seeking help from my company in funding it as well as from co-workers that they donate generously, could it be that I may encounter obstruction? Although, Mercury is in Mars dignity. Hmmm... The Moon will translate from Venus (rules the 11th) to Mercury (rules the 10th of work and goals), but in a square. However, given the aspects (connections), I would say that the project will take off, but will not be easy.
Thoughts? Thanks.
