Egyptian Coup

[Jim Eshelman]

(7/3/13)

The Egyptian military has informed President Mohamed Morsi that he is no longer in charge. This has been building a while.

CAPSOLAR: Sun square the Ascendant 1°09'. "It's all about the President."

ARISOLAR: Saturn 3° from the Ascendant in mundo. "Things are getting worse."

CAPLUNAR 6/25: Among other things, Saturn less than 2° from the Descendant in mundo (24' ecliptic) and Moon 1°02' from the MC, mundane Moon-Saturn square 0°42', Mercury 0°57' from IC, Venus also foreground. "It's really bad. I mean it. And the people are uprising from their suffering."

ARILUNAR 7/1: Saturn rising 0°22' in mundo, 51' ecliptic. Saturn partile square Venus 15', Venus more widely foreground. "Dude, they're HURTING dude, I mean BAD hurting. C'mon already."

CAPSOLAR QUOTIDIAN: Ascendant square Capsolar Sun. "It's all about the President."

The road is waiting!

Par-excellent symbolism with the mundane Moon-Saturn square representing a depressed/suffering populace. Adding Mercury’s partile conjunction to the IC with this Moon-Saturn influence-- we see the people voicing/communicating ‘their suffering’. I am still organizing my learning with these ingress charts, and it appears to me these Caplunars are doing what they are suppose to do, by offering excellent timing for events. Excellent Caplunar observation Jim. Thanks.

Egypt continues to be one of the best examples possible of what I've discovered about the Sun and Moon roles in terms of government vs. people.

The current accelerating violence is from a reassertion of strength by government forces. The current Caplunar (July 22) for Cairo has Saturn the degree of the Eastpoint (for the death and trouble overall) and the Sun about 1° from the Midheaven. (This is, therefore, a close Sun-Saturn square in RA on the MC-EP.)

The Moon is foreground also - a Full Moon along the Meridian - but is 7° away. The government is definitely stronger and more assertive than the popular masses.

Increases the last few days are simply the Neptune presence on the Liblunar. Additionally, today Saturn is on the CanQ EP. (That's Cansolar Saturn. Transiting Saturn is about a degree later, so it will take a few days for the two of them to clear the angle.)

Jim, its going to get much worse--take a look at Cairo's next Caplunar--angular Mo-Ma-Sa.

Damn, that's nasty.

To break it down for Cairo:

Saturn 0°10' above Descendant
Moon 2°28' west of MC
Mars 2°30' east of IC

So Saturn calls the shots (as it has been doing lately), and the Moon-Mars is still in close range. The Moon-Mars opposition is 0°02' wide in mundo, and still partile ecliptically.

Bloody hell. Bloody hell, indeed.

Mubarak was ordered to be released from prison this morning, after two years. This raises a definite risk of accelerated violence.

Of course, the current opposed factions - the one's fighting right now - teamed up two years ago to take down Mubarak. I suppose it's too much to hope that they could once more unite in common cause? (Not likely under the current Caplunar!)
