Beirut bombs
Posted: Sat May 13, 2017 9:26 pm
A friend wondered why the recent Beirut bombings hadn't received the same attention as the Paris ones. I didn't bother analyzing the event at the time because original reports were that a couple of dozen people were killed and, in that part of the world, it just seemed like "another workday," nothing of unusual import - and what we expect astrology to show are matters of unusual import. (Most Los Angeles murders aren't reported in LA Times. It's generally too boring for readers to see more or less the same report, more or less every day.)
Paris was a world-scale assault on an entire culture, attempting to undercut the life-style elements that define lifestyle and culture in a nation that has long defined them. Lebanon was a neighborhood skirmish and regrettably routine. (BTW, the reported deaths are not stabilized at a bit over 40.)
Since the issue got raised, let's take a look: November 12, 2015, a bit before 6:00 PM, Beirut, Lebanon. A lot of charts are dormant, I've simply skipped them below.
Year: Cansolar
Uranus on Asc (1°46')
Mercury sq. Asc (0°20')
Pluto on MC (4°44')
Mars on IC (8°21')
-- Mars-Pluto op. (1°33')
-- Mercury-Mars conj. (2°26')
-- Mercury-Uranus sq. (2°30')
Bridge
t. Uranus conj. Cansolar Asc Sep 21 to Nov 12
Month: Caplunar
[Borderline, possibly should be considered dormant, but explosive otherwise.]
Saturn on Dsc (3°09')
Moon-Uranus sq. (0°00')
Moon-Sun sq. (2°01')
Week: Canlunar (flow-through)
Neptune sq. Asc (0°44')
Venus on MC (2°57')
Jupiter on MC (3°29')
-- Ve/Ju on MC (0°16')
Mars on MC (3°39')
-- Venus-Mars conj. (0°21')
-- Ma/Ju 0on MC (0°05')
Saturn on Asc (4°26')
-- Jupiter-Saturn sq. (0°57' in mundo)
-- Saturn-Neptune sq. (2°52')
-- Ma/Sa on angles (0°24')
-- Ve/Sa on angles (0°44')
Day: Capsolar Quotidian
p. Asc sq. p. Moon (0°01')
p. EP conj. t. Neptune (0°18')
Day: Cansolar Quotidian & Transits
p. Asc sq. t. Mercury (0°03')
t. Sun sq. p. Moon (0°12')
--------------------------------------
t. Uranus conj. s. Asc (1°00')
Had someone been watching this, the following predictive path could have been taken: In a volatile, explosive (but perhaps more indicative of air crashes) year-chart, a two-month explosive, startling window was isolated Sep 21 to Nov 12. A deadly and, especially, explosive (0°00' Moon-Uranus) month-chart narrows this to begin Oct 20 to Nov 17 and a week-chart (that lasts two weeks) narrows this to Nov 2-17.
Within that, timing is difficult and we might have picked other days that were fiercer. The day of the event did show panic and confusion, plus the Moon and Mercury indications that mean sympathy and news attention; but we might well have picked other days.
