The Warrior Mars is integral to this July 19th. Lunation after stationing direct on June 29th. Which set the stage for lots of the drama in July. When stationing, Mars was @ 23 degrees 3 minutes of Scorpio an intense, brave, mysterious and at times vengeful placement being Quincunx (150 degrees) from Uranus/Ceres both in Aries With this Sabian Symbol: "Crowds coming down the mountain to listen to one inspired person." There will be a huge audience but not everyone will want to hear the message. Many in the crowd will be extremely gullible and easily influenced. More evidence of the anger, resolve, decisive actions of the red planet's influence is out of China where: Mammoth blade-wielding ‘God of War’ statue unveiled in China China have redefined the concept of ‘statue’ and put Lady Liberty to shame with the unveiling of a colossal 1,320-ton, 58-meter-high statue of legendary general and “God of War” Guan Yu.
Heat Dome Over the US
Besides attacks, cutting, biting etc. that come with Mars don't forget the extreme heat. Warnings came last week with the media noting: A giant heat dome is poised to envelop the U.S. The heat wave will start in the Plains states and parts of the intermountain West, eventually spreading to the West Coast, South and Midwest by Thursday, July 21. The heat wave is also likely to seep northward into southern Alberta and Ontario. Update here: Heat dome has tens of millions sweating from Minneapolis to Mississippi
Although the heat may not topple many records, the combination of temperatures running between 15 and 25 degrees Fahrenheit above normal along with high humidity will make this heat event a particularly dangerous one for public health. It has been quite a while since I posted on the blog but with the acceleration of high strangeness and mass weirdness, it seemed like time. Tomorrow's Full Moon in Capricorn begins @ 3:56 PM Pacific Daylight Time
Native Americans named this lunar passage in July the Full Buck Moon since stags started to grow new antlers around this post solstice period. Keep in mind that this full Moon was also known as the Thunder Moon, because thunderstorms are so frequent during this month. Just go to Weather.com
and see lead story about Severe Storms in the Northeast.
Let's cut to the chase and look at a chart set for San Francisco, CA @ 3:56 PM where we see Mars rising prominently in Scorpio and direct at 26 degrees with an appropriate Sabian symbol: "Indians making camp in new territory." This image is all about adjusting and acclimatizing to new circumstances. The theme of militancy, desire, sex action and even obsession is emphasized by the ascendant @ 27 degrees Scorpio per this Sabian: "A military band marches nosily on through the city streets."
When we look at the primary aspects to Mars we see the red planet and ruler of Scorpio in reception to the Moon in Capricorn - Mars is exalted in the organized and controlling sign of the Goat. Mars is also involved in a volatile Yod (finger of God) with a sextile to the goddess of justice, Astrea in Virgo and Uranus now in 25 degrees Aries (Uranus is exalted in Scorpio) all adding to sudden actions relating to righting injustice. in a grand trine to the Sun and Chiron (Pisces) In the San Francisco chart below - Chiron the wounded healer and emblem of sacrifice is posited in the 4th house involving families, land, real-estate, water and the end of the matter.
Also with Saturn ruler of the Capricorn in the intercepted in the first house and aligned thru rulership with the Moon and Pluto in an active earth sign we may want to pay attention to tectonic changes. Notice the series of quakes that have been happening over the last couple of days in the Ridgemark/Hollister/San Juan Bautista area of Central California. Call it what it is - an earthquake swarm still happening: Let's not forget that the San Francisco Bay is also Pokemon country and with Uranus (the planet of the sudden and unusual along with technology) hanging out in the 11th. house of games and in an agitated aspect to Mars - anything is possible with this game. The latest in this mind-numbing mega trend: Pokemon player hits police cruiser
Even though this story came out of Baltimore, I expect to see more of the same in SF.
Perhaps Pokemon zealots should examine the darker side of participating in this madness
Over at the RNC we see lots of evidence of the red planet. Notice the Full Moon set for Cleveland @ 6:56 PM EDT. has Mars in the 11th. house of groups, crowds and mass behavior.
Already today there have been several altercations, disruptions and attacks. Alex Jones was attacked too at this Chaotic Cleveland Circus.
