Hi all
Sorry for my provocative talk,I have a natal Mars in Gem/10th.And sorry Cactus Man for taking your original thread off topic ,Lol i cant help myself looking for Syrian threads and wanting some action
Anyway back on thread>>>
Syria and the US -Jupiter in Cancer opposition Pluto in Capricorn
I was very interested in hearing the opinions of mundane astrologers on this opposition and how it could relate to the Syrian conflict. America, being a Cancer country (the individual) opposed to Cap (the state). The last time we saw this direct opposition was in 1777...with all that has been disclosed with the NSA, and maybe even, this potential war, is the US on the brink of a new revolution? Throw in the Uranus square, and it does seem quite volatile. Would love to hear your thoughts!
Hi CactusMan again,I personally don't find the Jupiter transit through Cancer as Significant as the transiting Pluto Opposition the natal US Sun,But using the two transits together i find the Jupiter part much more interesting,Especially whilst the time that Jupiter also transits the US Sun by conjunction,This is bound to inflate whatever Pluto is doing by opposition to the US Sun,I understand Jupiter opposition Pluto as an over relating type of issue,Transiting Pluto was at 27:32:57 on the 4th July 1776,Opposition natal Mercury in Cancer at 24:11:50.So Pluto has an affinity with the US mundane chart with it being at the end of Capricorn,And now,not many years before it has its return to 27:32:57 Cap.
Jupiter will get to 20:30 Cancer on the 5th of November 2013,Then retrograde back to 10:27 Cancer on March March 5th 2014.At which point it will be working very powerfully with the transiting Pluto/Uranus square,Somewhere around here would appear to me to be a particularly sensitive time and a finishing of Jupiter's business with the early part of the cardinals.
This backwards and forwards sweep will have an affect mainly on the US Sun at 13:10:22 Can,And the US Saturn square at 14:48:20 Lib,So i suspect this will be particularly activating the US tendency to behave as the worlds Policeman,Or Superhero,Unfortunately the US has a tendency to bomb what it considers the protagonist into the ground,And to ignore World UN law,Despite the fact that the US was never diplomatically voted into this Policeman's job.
Witness the fantastic amount of Superhero characters in US comics,This has a lot to do withe US tendency to want to be an unelected Policeman for the World via the natal Sun square Saturn energy.
I would consider the Grand cross at the end of 2014 as very significant, with Mars at 11:32 Libra,Jupiter at 16:05 Cancer,Uranus 8:40 Aries and Pluto 11:15 Capricorn,This is bound to be a very active Cardinal point.Generally when i see a Cardinal stress like this i know something is bound to happen almost immediately in response to the configuration.
