American Airlines Flight 587

Post by Jim Eshelman »

November 12, 2001, 9:15:56 AM, Queens, NY (specifically 40N34'38", 73W51'02")

Crashed soon after takeoff from JFK. into a nearby Queens neighborhood. All 260 people on the plane and 5 people on the ground died, or 265 total. Likely cause was first officer over-reaction to wake turbulence from a plane in front of them. The time chosen is for when the rudder failed, a few seconds before the cockpit alarm sounded.

The crisis occurred with Moon on local MC in close trine-sextile to Saturn-Pluto. There was a mundane partile Mercury-Mars square at that time.

Year: Capsolar (Dormant.)

Year: Cansolar {+2}
(This is the Cansolar under which 9/11 occurred and is calculated for a part of NY. Therefore, it's going to read like, well, the 9/11 Cansolar! While that might be overkill for the current event, it's also accurate.)
Venus on Asc 0°34'
Saturn on As 1°21'
Moon on Asc 3°00'

NOTE: Aspects that exist only mundanely, and therefore are unique to the location, include Mercury-Mars sq. 1°38', Venus-Mars sq. 0°48', Venus-Neptune sq. 2°21'.

Day: Capsolar Quotidian {-3}
The Jupiter angularity isn't easily overlooked, given the 0°01' orb & angularity! It doesn't fit what we know, but invites serious questions about what it does mean. Even if it's overwhelmed by the powerful Moon progression in the Cansolar (below), it still is obviously making a specific statement about this event.
t Jupiter sq. p Moon 0°22'
t Moon conj. p Moon 0°27'
p MC op. t Jupiter 0°01', sq. p Moon 0°21', sq. t Moon 0°48'

Day: Cansolar Quotidian & Transits {+3}
p Moon-Saturn conj. 0°37'
-----------------------------------
t Pluto conj. s Dsc 0°55'
t Saturn conj. s Asc 1°58'
-- t Saturn conj. s Venus 0°22'
-- t Pluto [19:25] conj. s Mars 0°59'
t Sun sq. s MC 1°22'

NOTES: The single strangest thing about these charts astrologically is that there isn't a Mercury to be found! It's as if it isn't a transportation / vehicular event at all (though of course it occurred in an airplane). At the time, there was suspicion it was another terrorist attack in the immediate aftermath of 9/11 and our invasion of Afghanistan, and the charts fit this somewhat better; but the investigators (whether being truthful or saving the country a new horror; let us presume it was the former) concluded it was not a terrorist attack but was an over-reaction by the co-pilot. The charts clearly show horror, destruction, sorrow, loss, and the rest, but that Jupiter can't go unanswered. The plea bargain testimony of Mohamed Jabarati outright supports the terrorist attack (shoe bomb) theory, as does a Canadian intelligence report of unknown quality. I'll read a bit more, but this might be a mystery for a while (or forever).
