Did the Heavens Foretell the Dethronment of Gaddafi (2011)

If you go to the included wikipedia link and look under the ‘Royal’ dressed picture of Gaddafi, you will read where wikipedia states Gaddafi held a high ranking office in Libya from March 2nd 1977 to Aug. 23rd. 2011. Reading further into wikipedia article it appears NATO and other World powers jointly announced around Aug 23rd 2011, they no longer recognized Gaddafi as Ruler of Libya. This becomes most interesting to the astrologer when he strikes a scope for Aug. 23rd 2011 which is included below. The fixed Star Regulus in the Constellation Leo plays a most important role with this Aug. 23rd Scope, the Sun was partile (1 degree less orb) conjunct Regulus and was severely afflicted by malefic partile aspects from Mars & Saturn (semisquares) and a partile opposition from Neptune. This planetary picture is striking and is a rare celestial event.

The Star Regulus is fixed in the Sidereal Zodiac at 5 degrees Leo. Note again the Sun partile conjunct Regulus. Regulus in Latin means ‘Prince’ or ‘Little King.’ The ancient Persian astrologers knew Regulus as one of the four ‘Royal’ Stars. Regulus is the brightest Star in the Constellation Leo. Leo has by ancient astrological tradition always been associated with Royalty. Regulus is the closest fixed Star to the Ecliptic. You can read more about Regulus with the included wikipedia link.

Additionally, for the Libyan capital on that date:

Cansolar: Neptune half a degree from the Ascendant
Caplunar: Neptune 2 degees from the Ascendant
Arilunar: Saturn 2 degrees from IC

Thanks to Donald Bradley’s research we have this Sidereal Astrology method for analyzing possible locations. I have little experience with this Sidereal method but can see the use of this method for isolating possible locations for world events. Neptune’s symbolism here stands out to me since there was an organized military 'plot' by certain World powers to help remove this ‘Little King.’

Neptune is also appropriate, of course, for the mass hysteria, confusion, and other types of disorientation and extreme emotion of the entire country.

But (as your post reminded me), I should have given a few more particulars of the Cansolar, tying in the Regulus factor directly. The Cansolar occurred July 17, 2011 at 10:04:46 PM EET. For Tripoli (32N54, 13E11), we have:
Ascendant 5 Aqu 09
Neptune 5 Aqu 31
Regulus 5 Leo 05

In mundane terms, it is essentially the same. The RAMC of the Cansolar (using the standard mid-city coordinates for Tripoli) was 249°40'. Neptune rose at RAMC 250°29' and Regulus set at RAMC 250°05'. (BTW, Aldebaran anteculminated at 249°09', half a degree from the RAMC of the chart.)

Neptune had four parans (potential and actual) with Regulus - they were close enough in celestial latitude to be opposite each other on all four angle pairs. In fact, this weeks-long Neptune-Regulus paran and zodiacal opposition is as indicative of "Arab spring" type phenomena - the overthrow of "little kings" all over the world - as the emerging Uranus-Pluto square.

Neptune was paran Mars - the former culminated at 332°42', the latter rose at 331°46'. Regulus also was in paran to Mars: the star was on the IC at 332°15'°. This is probably the most devastating setup in the ingress.

In case you want to push it a little further, Alpheratz rose within a degree of Neptune, at RAMC 251°06'. Alpheratz is the brightest star in Andromeda, but historically was also considered part of Pegasus - it links the two constellations. (It's name refers to it being the navel of the horse.) The star is historically related to the urge for freedom and escape.

Yes, this is a perfect delineation for what is happening in the entire country.

I only have experience with planetary Parans with native’s charts, but with your Paran input with Regulus, I now have a much better understanding what a vast influence Regulus has with what is happening now with the ‘little kings’ in the World. I note that with next years Capsolar, Neptune will be back partile 180 to Regulus. As you pointed out, combine this with the Uranus-Pluto partile 90, we can expect a continuation of these ‘Revolutionary’ movements involving the ‘little kings.’

I totally agree with your thinking here Jim. Thanks for this important input Jim.
