Israel launched a ground invasion of the Gaza strip at 9:38 pm Jerusalem Standard Time, moving its tanks across the border several hours after the traditional Jewish Sabbath ended at sundown. They are on a search, they say, for militants only: pamphlets have fallen from the sky warning civilians to leave if they value their safety. Hamas leaders have warned that invading Israeli soldiers will meet “their doom.”
In this chart Virgo is rising and represents Israel. Pisces is setting (seventh house) and represents the Palestinians. Israel is represented by Mercury (the ruler of Virgo) and Jupiter (the ruler of Pisces) represents the Palestinians. Using the planets and their positions as a map, let’s see if these two planets tell a story.
The exchanges between these two groups of people correlate with the aspects the planets are making. Mercury is in Aquarius. Jupiter is ambling not far behind. They have both just come from a conjunction in Capricorn. Was there a meeting that took place? Who was there? Where was it?
As Mercury is eight days away from retrograde things may be short-lived and apt to change direction. Looking at these two planets together with the events that are transpiring makes a picture like this: an army that pushes forward with its task and then retreats (retrograde).
The Palestinians have yet to make their move: Jupiter has yet to cross into Aquarius, which happens Monday Jan. 5, 2009.
But let’s not kid ourselves: this is not a situation that we can understand even within the context of astrology and all of the history and current events combined. We are all in this together, watching with the same nervous mind. We’ll do our best to keep you abreast on the events as we hear of them. Stay tuned.

This is one of the times I wish I had more knowlege about this stuff. I would like to see the hints from composite charts of the big world oil leaders to see who is playing into this game. And I don’t even know if that is astrologically feasible.
All I’m getting is the land war and the sides and it just ain’t panning out in my mind. It ain’t gellin. Maybe I will search for the laws of distraction and see how they work?

Thanks for keeping us posted on this. . .I (like JD) would like to see the chart; any chance you could post it?
Jenny jenny, can we see the chart?

A meeting? Possibly. Before the bombing began Syria and Israel were HOURS away from sealing a deal.
This seems to be a pattern. Israel begins making some headway with an Arab neighbor, and then BAM! *someone* comes around a picks a fight…

“Turkey was ending efforts to organize peace talks between Israel and Syria because of the Israeli offensive in the Gaza Strip, Turkish Foreign Minister Ali Babacan told Monday at a joint press conference with his Egyptian counterpart.
“The continuation of the talks under these conditions is naturally impossible,” Babacan told reporters after discussions with Egyptian Foreign Minister Ahmed Abul Gheit in the Turkish capital of Ankara. “To make war on the Israeli-Palestinian track and at the same time make peace on the Israeli-Syrian track. These two cannot go together,” he said. Syria has suspended indirect peace talks with Israel in response to the attacks on the Gaza Strip, a senior Syrian official said on Sunday. “
