I created a chart with noon rising in Sag. This chart has a lot of interesting interplays with the Death Chart posted above, definitely a lot to absorb and meditate on.
I hope that his death will stir the hearts of many to really question the Capital Punishment system. All life should be cherished through various stages of living, not just during pregnancy.
I find such comfort here, thank you all for sharing your deep pain and providing a place for me to share mine. It is astounding to me that we execute people, for whatever reason, and I am left feeling sick and weary.
mm.
ps: I had just read B-H-Clow’s reading for the equinox and love seeing her quoted here, anywhere.
I would like to join all you wise, compassionate and passionate people in collectively condemning this outrageous travesty.
I can remember clear as a bell when I first heard about capital punishment…I was 5 years old. It was over half a century ago and in my childhood innocence I could not understand the logic: if it is “wrong” to kill, then it is wrong. Full stop. If we have laws against murder then how can we turn around and say, well, it’s OK for the State to murder?
It made no sense to me then and it makes no sense now. It is unjustifiable, morally wrong and shows once more how badly broken is our culture.
@Fe: yes, I had noted that symmetry too. And BH-C is someone I’ve followed for years for a different perspective on things.
May Troy Davis’ soul gift to us all be a spark that ignites an end to this failed and dysfunctional system some think is just. It is not just, it is inhuman. When will we grow up?
@ Jere…. me too! Hang in there friend… it is totally within the realm of Quantum mechanics for us all to suddenly wake up on a different planet… THIS one minus all the crap! Keep on Dreamin’ your dream and help us all get there! 🙂
@Len: I sooo hope you are right about the changes coming. It does look promising… let us hope the fires and tensions of these squaring of energies will ignite the change we need.
A sad day… may something powerful and good rise up here out of this grief, fully formed and wise, Like Pallas Herself at Her birth.
thanks Fe,
I’m saying it’s definitely On -Topic.
I’ve been reading that site for the new moon reports and also because her description of different changes, like time acceleration and stuff are a godsend to me because I am receiving messages and feeling things in my body that I can equate with what she is saying.
at least a possible framework.
Uranus at 0 on Christmas Day. wow.
I need to go back to my journals and see what kind of intentions I was putting down around the Spring equinox, since now we are in a period of balancing them. mm.
peace.
This is so terrible. Words fail me – but thanks for all of yours.
Fe:
Thank you, thank you so very much. It is not off topic at all. It’s the whole ball game. Somebody send Barbara Hand Clow my thanks and my love. The Goddess is at hand.
Len:
It’s off-topic and kind of on-topic. Check out this passage from Barbara Hand Clow on the fall equinox:
I’m starting to think 2011 will eventually be seen as the end of this obsession with sin and atonement. Instead, we are experiencing Reverse Rapture-the only way to purge this nutty fanaticism from the religions founded by Abraham! Finally we can partake of true wisdom-after being bored by two thousand years of waiting for the apocalypse. Let’s look more closely at the Uranus/Pluto squares, since they are orchestrating the next big change phase-2012-2015.
Larry Cox of Amnesty International called Troy’s death, simply, ” a human sacrifice.” It *has* to stop. WE have to stop it.
Oh my God. This actually hurts. I don’t even know this man, Troy Davis, but this execution makes me cry. This has got to stop.
We are indeed the culture of fear and death.
Jere: i love you. Wish i could give you a hug. As long as i wake up on the same planet with you, it’s worth waking up. Rest well, there will be work to do, my poet.
The chart (thank you, Eric): South node (Karma) in the first house, rising to the ascendant. Ascendant in Gemini. Mercury ruler of Gemini. Hence, Mercury is the chart ruler. Mercury in the fourth house (our home, our past, our present emotions) applying to conjoin Sun. Sun’s ruling sign (Leo) hosts Mars in the second degree, third house (the sins of the father). Moon is in the sign it rules (Cancer), second house (the value of a human life). Moon in a square to Saturn (The Man). Saturn rules the eighth house (cause of death) where Pallas (justice) is in in retreat.
Things are gonna change real quick. Pallas stations direct on Saturday. The rulers of the first four houses (Mercury, Moon and Sun) will soon conjoin in Libra and oppose Uranus (change) in Aries while they square Pluto (accountability) in Pluto. A positive, constructive response is possible and can be productive but it will require working that Libra stellium consciously. Let us pray that all murder stops now.
Odd symmetry.
On the same day Troy Davis was executed, so was Lawrence Russell Brewer, the man guilty of the dragging death of James Byrd in Texas:
We’ve just hacked off another piece of our society’s soul.
..this is why I’m pissed off at the world… how the fuck can we kill people in good concience? I’m all up for vigilante justice, I just don’t think we should be murdering people!
Namaste and god speed, brother Troy.
D.O.B for Troy Davis is October 9,1968 according to http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Troy_Davis_case
