Checking in with the astrology vis a vis Egypt, I cast a chart, set for my local area, just to get a hint what was up. I guess you could call it a horary. My initial feeling, before seeing the horoscope below, was that the standoff is building toward the Full Moon. There was a lot of action and a turning point right around the New Moon at the Aquarius midpoint a week ago, and now we’re seeing a new surge of energy right at first quarter. [Note after writing this: On CNN, the Egyptian ambassador to the US is saying live that Mubarak has transferred all presidential power to Vice President\/American Flunky Torture Chief Suleiman under Article 82 of the Egyptian constitution, and that the VP is the de facto president.]<\/p>\n

Horary: What happens in Egypt?<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Looking at the chart, the first thing I saw was 18+ Leo rising. I remember this degree from the infamous Aug. 11, 1999 total solar eclipse — the big one that cut a swath across Europe just as the EU was taking shape. Eclipses are events that have meaning and influence many years after the fact. I believe this is the degree with the Sabian, “A House Boat Party,” one that I’ve always found a little confusing in the contexts where it appears. In any event, it’s what caught my eye first. This degree makes an appearance in the chart for the Sept. 11, 2001 incident — more than a cameo. Venus, the ascendant ruler, is right there.<\/p>\n

The thing that worries me a bit is how the Taurus Moon is about to make a square to those Aquarius planets — Mars, Nessus and the Sun. <\/p>\n

Moon square Mars is pretty pissed off. The Moon in Taurus doing this is also an image of Mubarak (who has a mid-Taurus Sun) square (crossing) the angry people, who are represented by Mars, Sun and Nessus in Aquarius. The Taurus Moon is in the 10th house of government, so we have clear image of him. The popular anger this represents is about the people of Egypt having long sustained a psychic and psychological injury (hinted by Nessus). As I mentioned before, Egypt has been under emergency law, with one 18-month exception, since 1967 — long before Mubarack was installed into power.<\/p>\n

With that Aquarius, we have a touch of astrological irony in that Egyptian bosses keep blaming satellite news channels (presumably Al Jazeera, CNN and others) for instigating the revolution. Mubarack has taken out his rage at the media on the media, with reporters being beaten and abducted. The ‘Net has played a role in several ways, including the Google official credited with suggesting they get things going, to the use of cell phones and social networking sites.<\/p>\n

One noteworthy aspect involves Saturn. If you check this link <\/strong><\/a>and look at the chart on the lower left, you can see that Saturn in the chart for Mubarak taking power (when Anwar Sadat was assassinated), you can see Saturn at 12+ Libra. It’s close to that degree today; Mubarak’s government is in the midst of its Saturn return. That, of course, means restructuring. This takes a while to unfold. Saturn is retrograde and stations direct at 10+ Libra in June. It will make two more contacts to the natal degree of Mubarack taking office in 1981.<\/p>\n

The change is inevitable; it’s a matter of when. Meanwhile, the potent emotions of the people are going to be the thing that rules the hour.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
