Apollon/Chiron
Opportunity/recognition is:
•
Unwanted
•
In the wrong field
•
Uncredited; lack of
recognition for something important
•
At the wrong time (e.g, posthumous)
•
Public embarrassment
Travel events:
• Problematic travel issues
Unsuccessful relocation
Importing (incongruous) cultural values to a distant or foreign place
World events: countries no seeing eye to eye.

Unwanted opportunity;

George Washington’s
presidency was marked by a series of progressed conjunctions of
Apollon/Chiron. “It seemed as if
everyone rejoiced at the election of our first chief executive except for the
man himself.” He was re-elected “almost
against his will”. In his own words: “movements to the chair of government will
be accompanied with feelings not unlike those of a culprit who is going to the
place of his execution.” He had to be persuaded to run for a second term
which was more challenging than the first term and gave rise to the expression
“second term curse”.
Robert Mueller natal conjunction; T.
Apollon triggers it during “Mueller Investigation”. “Confusing and inconclusive final
judgment….gave Trump an unnecessary gift.
His compromising language had another ill effect…it opened the door for
the report to be misrepresented by countless partisans acting in bad
faith.” His reluctance to testify and
his poor performance also occurred during this transit.

Recognition for
something unwanted
The songs that made Bob Dylan famous
became “a millstone”. He wanted to start
from scratch with a “Never Ending Tour” (see Apollon/Chiron and travel). “I’d have to start at the bottom and I’m not
even at the bottom”. Natal aspect 15’
orb; the tour began when his SA was 45o triggering his natal
aspect. When T. Chiron stationed antiscia
natal Apollon summer 2022, a lawsuit alleging sexual assault of a 12-year old
in 1965 was dropped and his lawyers sought “monetary sanctions” for the “brazen
misconduct” of the plaintiff’s legal team.
Michel
Houellebecq on his critics: “What I do reproach them for isn't bad reviews. It is that
they talk about things having nothing to do with my books—my mother or my tax
exile—and that they caricature me so that I've become a symbol of so many
unpleasant things—cynicism, nihilism, misogyny. People have stopped reading my
books because they've already got their idea about me.” (N. semi octile 3’ orb)

of the aspect: Tony Blair resigned. “Mr.
Blair’s standing as a leader suffered in the wake of the Iraq war”. At the same time, he started the Faith
Foundation, criticized (“inspires ridicule”) for “reducing the religions to the
same common denominator…stripping them of their identity...a universal, global
power (to) impose on the entire world”
(Natal aspect + Progressed Apollon=N. Chiron exactly 2007-2008)

Samuel Johnson began the plan for The Dictionary. Well received, but not by his patron. "Seven years, my lord, since I waited in your outward rooms

work through difficulties of which it is useless to complain, and have brought
it at last to the verge of publication without one act of assistance, one work
of encouragement, or one smile of favor. Is it not a patron, my lord, who
looks with unconcern on a man struggling for life in the water...the notice
which you have been pleased to take of my labours, had it been early, had been
kind: but it had been delayed till I am indifferrent and cannot enjoy it; till
I am solitary and cannot impart it; till I am known and do not want it."
