North Korea launched "several projectiles"

Post by Jupiter Sets at Dawn »

Saturday May 4, 2019, north of Wonsan, North Korea between 9:06 AM and 9:27 AM N. Korean time, several projectiles were launched and dropped into the sea. They were short ranged 70 to 200 km. Nobody's sure exactly what they launched.

Good news: Plane lands in river, nobody badly hurt

Post by Jupiter Sets at Dawn »

Friday May 3rd, 2019, 11:42 EDT
A Miami Air International Boeing 737-800, registration N732MA performing flight GL-293 from Guantanamo Bay Naval Air Station (Cuba) to Jacksonville Naval Air Station,FL (USA) with 136 passengers and 7 crew, landed on Jacksonville NAS's runway 10 at 21:42L (01:42Z May 4th) but overran the end of the runway and came to a stop in the shallow waters of St. John's River about 380 meters/1250 feet past the end of the runway and was partially submerged. All occupants were able to evacuate the aircraft, 21 occupants were taken to hospitals with non-critical injuries.

If that time is close, then the decision came down as Uranus had just passed MC and Sun approached it, on a day when Mercury squared Pluto and Mars opposed Jupiter.

Uranus themes the CAPLUNAR also, 0°47' from WP and conjunct Sun (on the other side of WP). Angles in Columbus, the capital, are barely different, but throw the attention on Sun, with Uranus as a secondary.

Similarly, for Cincinnati. the Arilunar had Sun rising most closely, a 08' Moon-Uranus mundane conjunction, and Moon with Mercury-Pluto ecliptically. This ALL sounds like shaking things up, calling a thing what it is, and rearranging the paradigm. For Columbus, Uranus is 15' from EP, 0°01' from conjunct Moon in mundo, plus Sun is pulled back a couple of degrees from the angle, i.e., Columbus is not where the power rests at the moment.

Uranus also marks the day in Cincinnati. CapQ MC squares Uranus within 1° for the decision. The CanQ looks more like a hard smack-down, though, with Dsc conjoining Saturn and Pluto on either side and MC square ingress Saturn. (Several times I've seen these two quotidians show different concurrent sides of an issue - e.g., in marriage rights decisions - with the CapQ more likely to show the prevailing view and the CanQ the secondary or grumbling loser view - but only when people are so divided on an issue that "both sides of the story" are a big part of the prevailing reality of the day.)

It was a day well-suited for saber-rattling with Mars opposite Jupiter (and, perhaps, both luminaries in Aries, heading for today's New Moon). Mercury also squared Pluto.

Centering attention on Pyongyang, North Korea has a bellicose quarter. The ARISOLAR has Mars 1°26' from Zenith. The CAPLUNAR shows success - similar to "space race" launch successes - with Jupiter 1°36' from Dsc and Mars more distantly rising (squared by Neptune).

For the day, the CapQ was dormant but the CanQ has clearly militaristic implications. Quotidian MC is square ingress Mars.

This one worries me a bit because they haven't been bragging like usual. Kim just came back from meeting with Putin, they launch this under indications of military intent and technical success (technical success combined with covert aggression). Historically, Kim has been all about bragging rights (and bragging), and this seems something different, ore like "getting down to business."

Thailand was ready for a change in leadership this year: The CAPSOLAR's Sun-Uranus conjunction falls close to its angles, with Pluto on WP.

Further change (but less attention on royalty per e) shows in the Week chart, the ARILUNAR, with Uranus 0°09' from Dsc. (Moon, Sun, Mercury, and Pluto are more widely foreground.)

More solar symbolism comes from the daily timing: Transiting Sun conjoined Capsolar Moom, exactly on CapQ WP. The day's Mercury-Pluto square fell on Bangkok's Capsolar angles, with Saturn transiting its WP (I don't know the story: Was there a recent death of the old king?). Strikingly, transiting Jupiter crossed Bangkok's Cansolar MC within 0°22' for the enthroning (opposed by Mars, which was crossing IC and squaring Asc).

Waukegan silicone plant explosion

Post by Jim Eshelman »

May 3, 2019, about 9:30 PM, Waukegan, IL

An explosion at AB Speciality Silicones in Waukegan (north of Chicago) has killed at least one person, with two people still missing. Causes are still being investigated. The explosion caused ground shaking, according to the sheriff's tweet. First estimate is that damages are around a million dollars.

If the time is right, the moment was primed for chaos, fiery eruption, and probably chemical accidents: Mars, Jupiter, and Neptune were all tightly angular and Moon was 0°07' from conjunct Uranus.

Waukegan was primed for at least one costly and probably deadly event this year. The CAPSOLAR has Saturn 0°06' from Eastpoint and a more widely foreground Mars-Jupiter. "Costly" is an overlapping keyword.

This became more distinctly explosive for the quarter: Waukegan's ARISOLAR has Uranus 0°46' from IC with a distantly angular Saturn.

In the CAPLUNAR, a Moon-Pluto conjunction is on IC (more widely conjunct Saturn). Then the ARILUNAR for the week went crazy: Pluto 1°49' from MC, Sun 0°12' from Asc, Sun-Pluto in 1°31' mundane square, Moon conjunct Uranus mundanely (0°26') and Mercury-Pluto ecliptically, all on the angles. Saturn more widely angular with a 1°03' Mercury-Saturn mundane square. It literally just EXPLODES in hits and metaphors on all sides.

For the day, CapQ MC squares ingress Uranus (partile) with lesser hits like transiting Moon to its EP. Transiting Sun has conjoined CapQ Moon the last couple of days, and seems to have been setting off all sorts of things worldwide, though it doesn't link distinctly to Waukegan.

Transiting Mars crossed CAPSOLAR Descendant for the explosion (0°14'), though Venus concurrently crossed its IC. Also, this was part of the ongoing Mars-Jupiter opposition - transiting Jupiter remains within 2° of Capsolar Asc, but farther than Mars, so the main message is "costly." Venus and Jupiter are also consistent with a low death count.

Daily indicators just keep popping: CanQ Descendant conjoined transiting Saturn (1°08'), ingress Pluto (1°45'), and transiting Pluto (1°29'), falling 0°11' from the Saturn/Pluto midpoint. All of this fell in the midst of Neptune's months-long conjunction with Cansolar Dsc (0°10' for the event).

Russian passenger jet

Post by Jupiter Sets at Dawn »

May 5, 2019 Sheremetyevo, Russia, took off at 18:04 local time, landed at 18:31 local time
Aeroflot Sukhoi Superjet 100-95, flight SU-1492, Moscow to Murmansk with 73 passengers and 5 crew caught fire after returning and landing at airport north of Moscow, having possibly been hit by lightening.

It lost communication with the ground during the return, but was able to communicate with the tower using transponder codes. It was a hard landing, and the plane ran off the runway into the grass as the rear section burst into flames. Passengers escaped through front hatches, crew escaped cockpit using ropes, 13 dead, 28 missing, 35 known to have escaped. The tail section of the plane completely burned down.

Emergency services reported the fire was extinguished about 45 minutes after landing.

The old king died about two years ago. The new one has technically been king since his father's death, but this was the crowning and ceremonial ascencion to power and the end of mourning.

Storm event

Post by Jupiter Sets at Dawn »

May 5, 2019 "around" 4 PM, Aurora NE hailstorm. People had to get out the shovels to clear roads and sidewalks.
May 5, 2019 "just after" 5:30 PM Lincoln NE, tornado touchdown. Minor injuries, but a local landmark ice cream store was demolished, and the Harleys took to the air at a local motorcycle dealership. After the storm there must have been 100 videos posted on Facebook, Twitter, etc.
Same storm.
All day Lincoln had hurricane level winds.

Colorado school shooting

Post by Jim Eshelman »

May 7, 2019, just before 1:53 PM, Highlands Ranch, CO 39N33'22", 104W59'52"
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/STEM_Scho ... h_shooting

Shooting at the Denver-area STEM School Highlands Ranch (7 miles from Columbine) killed one student and injured seven others. Two suspects are in custody.

The area has a primarily benefic CAPSOLAR for the year and ARISOLAR for the quarter - the latter having Jupiter rising (exactly square Venus) as its only important characteristic. The CAPLUNAR has Mercury and Venus tightly straddling Descendant, again a primarily benefic chart and the ARILUNAR has Venus closely rising. I don't recall ever seeing ANY event for which the two primary solar ingresses (year and quarter) and two primary lunar ingresses (month and week) were both so purely benefic!

But the Capsolar is actually dormant, so that Venus and Jupiter 4° either side of Ascendant don't actually mean anything. (The Cansolar is also dormant.) However, that still leaves the quarter, month, and week charts strikingly benefic.

The CapQ suggested something startling and revealing, with ingress Mercury on MC and ingress Uranus rising. (Even then, transiting Venus was on CapQ EP: a nice surprise.) The first chart at all to show any trouble was the CanQ, with MC conjunct ingress and transiting Neptune.

It is quite a puzzling set of charts. We may learn more as the news cycle unfolds, or this may be the grossest failure of Sidereal ingresses I've ever seen. There's a chance we have something to learn from this.

Another aircraft accident this time in Myanmar.

Post by Jupiter Sets at Dawn »

Flight BG-60 from Dhaka (Bangladesh) to Yangon (Myanmar) with 29 passengers and 4 crew, landed on Yangon's runway 21 at about 18:50 local time (12:20Z) but veered left off the runway and came to a stop on soft ground. The landing gear collapsed and the fuselage broke into three sections. All 33 occupants received injuries, 19 of them were taken to hospital, but no life-threatening injuries.

Getting a lot of slid off runway accidents with a variety of outcomes, from nobody hurt thru pets were drowned, to a lot of people died a fiery death.

The Uranus-Neptune semi-square hit 00' again, I'm curious if that is somehow connected?

Anyway, Yangon has a challenging year, including for transportation: The Capsolar has Pluto and Sun closely setting, Sun close mundane square to culminating Uranus, and Mercury (conjunct Saturn) on WP. The Caplunar replayed a little of this (Uranus on EP, Moon-Pluto in the upper foreground) and the Arilunar piled a lot of Mercury-trouble on the angles: Moon-Mercury setting square Saturn-Pluto on IC in various orbs ecliptical and mundane.

As for daily timing, transiting Pluto is a few minutes from Capsolar Dsc today. CanQ has Saturn on Asc.

Harlem fire kills six

Post by Jim Eshelman »

May 8, 2019, 1:45 AM, Harlem, NY

A fire in Harlem killed six members of one family, including four children (ages 3 to 11).

Harlem's ARISOLAR is harsh, with Saturn 1°18' above Asc, Pluto 1°13' below (thus a 2°31'conjunction and a 03' midpoint).

The Caplunar has Sun-Uranus setting (fine enough but not exactly on target).

The CanQ brings home the fried bacon: CanQ Dsc conjoin ingress Mars, transiting Venus on MC, transiting Saturn on ingress Pluto on WP.

At 4:30 PM exactly, in the Congress of the US, Washington, D.C. the clerk called the vote in the panel on holding AG Barr in contempt 24 to 16 in favor. Official announcement made at 4:42 PM.
It goes to to the full house next for a vote. Nadler says we are now in full constitutional crisis.

This is a week of very big surprises. -- The other two Moon aspects are connected: Moon conjoins Mercury 0°56' and squares Pluto 1°52'. Though we can interpret Moon-Mercury and Moon-Pluto separately, I think the weight goes to the partile background Mercury-Pluto square highlighted by Moon's touch, which says that this week's surprise is information, likely exposed from deep investigation. {emphasis added}

Re: 2019 May events

Post by Jupiter Sets at Dawn »

May 28, 2019 4:15 AM SW Omaha
4 - 6" of hail fell. While there was some damage to houses and trees, most of it just covered roads and driveways. The city of Omaha had plows out by 6:30AM and people were out shoveling their own and their neighbors driveways. Most people were late for work. 4 - 6" of snow can be pushed aside. 4 - 6" of hail has to be shoveled up a half a scoop at a time because it's really heavy, and if it's piled on the lawn, your grass will die.
I only got a little, not enough to shovel.

Oklahoma opioids trial

Post by Jim Eshelman »

Yesterday (May 28), one of the most important trials of the year (maybe of the decade) began in Oklahoma with the state trying to hold Johnson & Johnson liable for the opioids epidemic.

I wont be able to say much about it because my office is intimately involved and friends of mine (people I see everyday) may be among those that have their names in the news reports in the weeks to come. However, I wanted to point out the Jupiter lines in the current Caplunar moving right through Oklahoma City. Jupiter aspects Neptune, which rises. At the very least, this is sterling symbolism for "drugs & the court room," and probably will express itself in various ways still to be seen.
