Murdoch and Brooks: Public enemy or Collective shadow? A point of view of Astrology

I love to read to read gossip about footballers and WAGs. I enjoy reading about scandals from behind the scenes. I also loved to follow how Will and Kate met up, broke up and re-united…but where did I read this all: the Guardian, the Independent or the BBC? Nope….The News of the World and The Sun….

A couple of weeks ago if you told me, that Murdoch may not be able to buy BskyB, I would not have believed it. He holds a big part of the media in the UK and if he does not like you, then you are likely to be the next poor Brown. But the phone hacking scandal changed everything. I was so angry and furious about what The News of the World had done, it was totally immoral, the most vicious news I ever read. If Brooks had a daughter would that have made her more sympathetic to the harm done by the hacking and deleting of the phone messages of Millie Dowler? Would she have worried about her child everytime they left home? Hacking and deleting messages just for more news. This scandal made Brooks and Murdoch and News International become public enemies.

UK’s Tabloid on the 1801 chart

If we look at the UK’s 1801 chart you will see the 3^rd house cusps in Sagittarius, indicating an urgency to extend our communication and looking for more information. This also suggests the English language’s huge influence, becoming an international language. 3^rd house also rules News and BBC news is the biggest broadcaster in the world. The 3^rd house ruler, Jupiter, sextile Uranus and qcx Pluto in 5^th, reflects that famous British tabloid journalism, as it emphasises features such as sensational crime stories, gossip, tendency to deliberately shock readers (or society).

Mercury, detriment in Sagittarius, in the 3^rd House, rules the 9^th House, which also has influence on News and Media, Ssq Jupiter (3^rd and 6^th House ruler) and Ssx Neptune (fantasy and victim and 6^th house ruler). Mercury is also qcx the Moon which is MC ruler representing Leader of a country, government, and celebrities.

Chiron, linked to wounding or harm, was right on the 3^rd house cusps. It squarea Pluto, this also could suggest that communication, transport, and media are sensitive areas in the UK. For example, even the public are angry with The News of the World scandal but British society is still very sensitive about whether new regulation of the Media is going to affect its proper function (fourth estate).

In another way, the UK has Venus and Pluto in the 5^th House, Pluto from the Yod with Jupiter and Uranus and is the apex of Yod. This suggests in one way that British people believe (Ju) muckraking (Pl) could change the whole country secretly (Ur in 12^th conj Asc) with an uncomfortable stimulation (quincunx, yod). In another way shocking news (Ur), cruel criminal news (PL), scandal (PL) of celebrities (Jupiter in Leo) becomes a form of entertainment.

If the suggestions in the 1801 chart are correct then we all play a part in this chart. We enjoy being cruel and gossiping and the tabloid journalists satisfy this need, but could we say, as The News of the World editor said “this is not where we wanted to be, and it’s not where we deserve to be.”

If it is not where the British public deserve to be, then we have to find someone to take the blame. As Rupert Murdoch holds the News International group and owns a big part of the British Newspaper industry, and Mrs Brooks is the CEO of New International group, then they have responsibility for this.

The synastry between UK1801 and Rupert Murdoch is very interesting, his Exaltation Jupiter in Cancer conjunct UK’s MC, tells us how he enjoys being an important role in our government. His Sun and MC ruler Mercury form a Water grand trine with UK’s Moon and Neptune which suggest how his business satisfies our need for gossip and fantasy.

His Pluto conjunct UK’s Moon, The Moon in Mundane represents the people and in the UK’s chart it is also ruler of 10^th, which means his invisible hand can really MANIPULATE our people and our government. We heard about how UK politicians have to earn his favour to win the elections. However his Jupiter is opposite UK’s Sun. UK’s sun rules the parliament (11^th House) so I doubt he would really be welcome in the House of Commons. His Sun and Mercury (MC ruler) and MC all square UK’s Mercury in 3^rd. How we envy (or are angry about) his media empire. His Saturn square UK’s Moon and his Neptune opposite UK’s Pluto, suggest how we see him as an unpopular person who holds power and has the potential to threaten us.

It is very easy to project our detriment Mercury as a collective shadow to someone who also has detriment Mercury, and has Pluto conjunct our Moon. I do not mean he is innocent and we project our shadow on him but just to show you it is interesting how a country‘s collective shadow can project on someone if the two chart have strong inter-aspects.

This year Mr Murdoch also has his SP Mercury conjunct his natal Chiron and his Uranus conjunct Dsc on his Solar Arc chart which suggests a huge change in his life. This happens when Transit Pluto Saturn Uranus form a Grand Cross with his Natal Jupiter (the Exaltation planet and dispositor of Mercury also right on 1801’s MC) and on the day of News revealed Phone-hacking scandal the sun was on his Jupiter trigger this grand cross.

But what about Rebekah Brooks? I don’t have her birth-time, so let do this more carefully. Her Sun is opposite UK’s Chiron and square UK’s Pluto and her Mars is opposite UK’s Mercury. She has Tr Pl Ur square her Chiron, and soon she will has Tr Saturn opposite Natal Saturn, which will not be an easy time.

Finally as New Solar fire has upgraded the solar map and this is my favourite bit of astrology, I look at Mr. Murdoch’s ACG Chart, well well well, Local space lines of Venus, Pluto, Saturn and Mars all cross the UK, as do the Node Mc and Ur Mc lines.

The Odyssey Dawn in Astrology…

Japan’s tragic does not change whole world ‘s care in middle East. Jupiter and Uranus move into Aries this year, Aries is a sign about courage, action, and tend to find something to fight for, because this vernal equinox energy is the moment that male animal fight for territory and gain the right to mate, we can say fight for surviving. Especially when Jupiter and Uranus (revolution, rebel) both will square Pluto in Capricorn, the symbol of powerful dictator.

We saw what’s happened when Jupiter enter Aries made a square to Pluto in February, and the tension between Uraus and Pluto just beginning to build up and will make exact square aspect 7 times between 2012-2015.

People protest for better life beginning from Tunis then Egypt and other Middle East country , the protester in Libya take big part of country, but attack by Gaddafi’s army in Bangazi. Last week UN security council has approved no fly zone, then world leaders meeting in Paris, French UK and US taking the operation of Odyssey Dawn immediately. Here I am going to explore couple astrological indication which link to this operation.

In 4 Jan 2011 Solar Eclipse chart Chiron Neptune right on Horizon and Jupiter Uranus on 1^st house

In 2011 Arise Ingress chart Uranus conjunct IC, Pluto in 1^st house, and Jupiter in 4^th opposite Moon Saturn in 10^th , which we can understand there are still quite lots Libyan follow Gaddafi, and rival has been link with foreigner force (Jupier). And we see Sun Uranus IC line just cross Tripoli on Arise Ingress ACG map.

I am also interesting about the moment when Jupiter move into Aries, the chart shows Mars was conjunct Dsc.

If we check the ACG map of Leaders from France UK and US , we will find more interesting indicator , I was so curious about why President Nicola Sarkozy take action so quick , and almost play a leading role in this operation , then we find out in his ACG map he has Moon Mars descendant line pass Libya,His Local space Jupiter Uranus line are very close to BANGAZI, and Saturn Mercury IC Paran pass here too .

President Obama has MOON MC Line line Pluto Asc Chiron Dsc pass Libya, and his Uranus Asc line also very close to Libya. Local space Moon line also pass BANGAZI

and David Cameron has Sun pass here, and Local space Jupiter pass BANGAZI .

What if we do a group composite chart of Cameron , Sarkozy and Obama, I chose Paris (where world leader meet here for this operation) the I fond the Jupiter Ds line crose NNode Mc line here , and Pluto Mc line are very close to Libya.

More interesting their group composite chart has Sun Neptune Mercury conjunct on Asc, then name of operation called Odyssey Dawn, Odyssey ‘s journey usually has linked with Neptune and Pisces quality, what ‘s a interesting coincident or should we say Planets talk in its way ?

Updata

Here is Libya’s Chart data from Nicolas Campion The book of world horoscopes, Libia has Sun on 10 Virgo conjunct As, Moon on 4 conjunct Mc , The Vigo full moon on 19 Mar 2011 was on 28 Virgo Pisces axis, which conjunct Libya ‘s Pluto, also square Gadaffi’s Mercury on 24 Gemini. Full moon chart ‘s Mars was on Libya ‘s N.Node.

In Libya’s solar arc chart, we get Solar Arc Saturn in 19 Gemini in 10^th ( dictator ) opposite Natal Mars in 4^th .

I know someone will say that Nicolas Sarkozy expect this action to save his political life, or his intention is oil, whatever, I am astrologer I am not study in Politic, so let me explore this in Astrological way On his solar arc chart he got Solar Arc Mercury and Pluto square Natal Jupiter (IC and Dsc ruler) Chiron right on Ds, he really have something to do with the democracy freedom (Jupiter) V.S dictator (Mercury Pluto)

If we put his chart in Libya you will notice his Asc is 26 Virgo, Conjunct Libya ‘s Pluto and 19 Mars Full axis is also right on his Asc, Transit Pluto square his Moon Mars . I bet this super full moon really make our Duracell rabbit more excite then before.

Are you ready for Saturnian 10 years?

Credit crunch happened when Pluto move in to Capricorn make us know about investment banker’s games rule or ruin our economy. Deep water oil leak happened when the day Chiron move to Pisces force us to face our dependents of oil ,and what we have done to Ocean. Japan’s earthquake happened just one day before Uranus move to Aries, have we notice the danger of Nuclear power?

This is not end of the world, but maybe is end of human being, if we keep doing whatever without consider our environment. ? In Mundane astrology planet cycles are important for make forecasting of mundane events, we notice that when every time outer planets hit the cardinal sign there is a huge change, and enormous events happen in our life.

However we should not ignore Jupiter Saturn cycle, it is most important cycle in mundane astrology , it give us a clear indication of our social , cultural and economical life. Usually we see first 10 years after Jupiter Saturn conjunction as Jupiterian 10 years. It bring a flavour of develop, progressive, speed up , go higher, go further, we can keep doing what we want. But this also making people became more greedy , take risk of everything, and we sing, we dance, we drink, happiness always with us, there is always tomorrow and better future waiting for us.

However our life seeking the balance, after Jupiterian 10 years party life, we need rest, we need, wash dish and wine glasses and clean up the mess. Our land and our body need recover. People tend to seeking security and protection, more grounded and practical attitude toward our life. The beginning of Saturnian 10 years start after Jupiter Saturn opposition. This was began from April 2010, and exact on 28 Mars 2011.

Have we notice the world is changing? Are you ready for a simple, solid, grounded, and economical life ?

A quick study of Sendai Tsunami in Mundane Astrology

Sendai Tsunami image on AP

A 8.9-magnitude earthquake struck off the coast of northern Japan on 11th March 2011 14:46 local time, shaking buildings violently as far away as Tokyo. The highest tsunami warning was issued for the country’s northeast coast,and tsunami issued for more than 20 countries around Pacific.

Here is some quick astrological information as I use to fallow earthquake event.
Here is the event chart, we can see Mo in 0 Gem square Nep and Chiron

The Lunar eclipse on 21th Dec ,
Mars Pluto conjunction right on Tokyo’s west horizon
Jupiter Uranus conj Mc form a T –square with So Mo

If we to a bi wheel between Event chart and Lunar eclipse we can see Jupiter and Mercury are triggering Mars Pluto in Lunar Eclipse chart. Also Moon in 0 Gemini quincunx the Sun and Semi sextile the Moon.

The Jan 2011 Solar eclipse
Sa on I.C square Sun Moon Mars

The 1 Jun 2011 Solar eclipse
Pl right on Dsc square Sa in 4th House ( Ju Ur in Aries this year I will take the possibility of event happen earlier into consideration .)

Then I 'd like check the 2010 Capricorn Ingress but fond nothing special yet, although I like to check the ACG Map and planets paran around the place ,

Mo/ Pl paran on 37 N are very close to Sendai

this also appear on 2011 Aries Ingress , Ma /Pl Paran on 39 N

3/17 updata

I don't really tend to predict Earthquake or Tsunami, I mean planes in astrological forecasting could indicate different meaning, Uranus usually related to Earthquake, Nuclear disaster , but why not bird flu? or Spaceship disaster ?

I tend to use symbolic reading so I will not say when Uranus on Descendant in Eclipse chart will bring earthquake ...I usually use ACG map mark the danger zone, and use planets quality to explain events character.....for this reason Uranus on Horizon could indicate Sudden social change, shock , revolution or Erthquake, and usually Pluto could be dramatic events such as massacre whether people killed by nuclear weapons or natural disaster...

During 7 years of Uranus in Pisces , we face twice worst tsunami, 2004 when Uranus in 3 Pic and this year when Uranus in 29 Pic
