Here's the previous post, with emphasis on the small spaces

 "An artist's studio should be a small space.  Small rooms or dwellings discipline the mind, large ones weaken it". 
Leonardo Da Vinci  N. Sun=Vesta/Admetos 2' orb.

"Smallville" writer (Gough August 22, 1967)

Artist Alfred Jarry lived in an apartment his landlord had created by subdividing a larger apartment horizontally, rather than with a more standard vertical partition (N. Vesta=Admetos 15' orb).  This must have challenged Jarry who also had Juno/Vulcanus.

Julia Child called her home “La Pitchoune” — or “The Little Thing”; 


Vesta Admetos also symbolizes:
Doghouses 
Storage containers
 

  • Some don't leave home
  • Some travel to bring foreign influence back home
  • Some live in their homes only briefly

There are instances of people with Vesta/Admetos who never leave home.  In the charts of 2 agoraphobics,  one had Vesta=Admetos 6' orb, the other had Moon=Vesta/Admetos 6' orb.  Joseph Stalin and Fidel Castro never traveled, except for brief political necessities.  Some children with this combination prefer to stay in one room of their homes, such as the library.  Artist Henri Fantin Latour would only paint indoors  (N. Vesta/Admetos=Aries 13' orb). 

More common, however, were the  people with Vesta/Admetos pictures who changed homes frequently.  Their biographies use descriptions like "Vagabond existence",  "wanderer", "nomadic lifestyle", "restless movement", "I don't live anywhere".   Leonardo da Vinci moved approximately 13 times, almost never by choice.  Madame Blavatsky moved with her family  9 times in 11 years, and this was before she began her world travels.   

Among the group with Vesta/Admetos, some brought far flung elements back home.  Argentinean painter Emilio Pettoruti left his home in Argentina to study in Europe.  Attempting to integrate a modern European sensibility with the traditional art of his homeland, he was hounded into exile.  He retained his consciousness of home, and never departed from his nationalistic subject.  N. Vesta/Admetos=Aries 8' orb. 

King Karl Gustaf of Sweden prepared for his role as Head of State by spending time overseas, sometimes at particularly Swedish outposts, such as the Swedish Embassy in London,  but also working in a London bank and at a factory in France (N. Vesta/Admetos=Aries 8' orb).

Violinist Yuhudi Menuhin was born in the U.S. but was a citizen of three different countries.  He introduced Iyengar Yoga to the west, had a long association with Ravi Shankar, with whom he recorded "West meets East" and began the charity Live Music Now, paying to train musicians to bring live music back to their own communities (N. Sun=Vesta/Admetos 10' orb).

Politics

Joseph Stalin changed the direction of communism from Lenin's objective of worldwide expansion to "Socialism in one country" (N. Vesta/Admetos=Aries 8' orb).  Stalin left Russia just twice--to sign international treaties.

Chiang Kai-shek (N. Vesta=Admetos 32' orb)  was leader of the Republic of China for 47 years.  After the Chinese Revolution, he retreated from the Chinese mainland--the world's third largest country-- to the tiny island of Taiwan. 

When Winston Churchill had P. Admetos=N. Vesta 1' orb, he became Under-Secretary of State for the colonies.  When P. Sun=Vesta/Admetos, he began to inhabit "the war rooms", a bunker to protect him from the bombing of England during WWII.  Churchill had N. Vesta square Admetos 14' orb.
               
Vesta/Admetos in Literature

Hermann Hesse  (N. Vesta/Admetos=Sun 5' orb) came from a family which belonged to a German minority in a region which was part of the Russian Empire.  The area, Swabia, had undefined borders and remained isolated from surrounding areas, with a language not understood by Russians or other Germans, and a Swabian religion that further estranged him from the neighboring areas.  His family background became "the basis of an isolation and a resistance to any sort of nationalism that so defined my life". 

Hesse  married, but left his wife within weeks.  Upon his return, he rented a separate apartment.  The fictional events of his novels reflect his real life isolation and inability to make lasting contact with the outside world....while searching for the right place, his own "Estonia"

·         The setting of "The Glass Bead Game " is a fictional  province reserved for the development of the life of   the mind, with little technology or economic life.  The players occupy "Ivory tower" with little to no impact on the outer world.
·         "Demian"  struggles between 2 worlds,  the world of illusion and the world of reality, seeking  an infinite god who encompasses both sides of the world.  The symbol of Abraxas appears as a bird breaking free from an egg or a globe.
·         "Siddhartha"s life is characterizied by "restless departures and the search for stillness at home.
·         "Steppenwolf" is disgusted by nationalistic mentality and remains a stranger to his society.


Vesta/Admetos in architecture and science
 Prince Charles has an interest in urban planning.  He designed a town called Poundbury.  Although it includes office and residential buildings, "the impression of a small market town is maintained" (N. Vesta/Admetos=Aries 4' orb).  The founder of the 'tiny house' movement does not have an outstanding Vesta/Admetos picture, instead she has Admetos=Vesta/Juno.
Michelangelo was also an architect.  Among his most famous designs was the Laurentian Library.  The library's physical conditions were highly limited: it had to be narrow and light enough to fit on the second story of a pre-existing structure.  He solved the problem with "recesses and voids alternating with vertical supports".  (The library is on the left side of the photo.).  His most famous work, the Sistine Chapel, was at the time,  built for small congregations, not open to the public.  During a time of political unrest, he spent 3 months hiding in a small underground space, below a Medici tomb which he had designed.  "I hid in a tiny cell, entombed like the dead Medici above, though hiding from a live one".  (P. Admetos=Vesta/Cupido 1' orb; N. Vesta=Admetos 25' orb). 

Among scientists are findings which focus on small areas, or that which focuses.   Theodore Maiman, inventor of the first working laser, concentrating light waves (N. Vesta/Admetos=Aries 6' orb).  Georges Cuvier's 18th century study of the strata of the Paris basic established the principles of biostratigraphy (N. Vesta/Admetos=Aries 13' orb).

Frederick Mattias Alexander had problems speaking as a child, and developed a series of exercises called "The Alexander Technique" which helped people cure a number of ailments. 

His grandparents were convicts shipped to an island off the coast of Australia, where he was born..  Ashamed of his background, instead he said he was from Scotland.  He moved from the island to Melbourne, seeking "a wider scope of activity".  Doctors advised him to leave Melbourne for his health.  He became a voice teacher, beginning with a tour of his birthplace.  His return was successful, but unhappy; his father called him a "vagabond".  He moved to London, but spent half his time in the U.S., where he never felt at home.

Saturn/Neptune then and now

Saturn/Neptune manifestations in the past: water issues, from floods to shortages;  bridges; events with the health of elderly people; health issues in general.

When Saturn in Leo opposed Neptune, there were several events involving children 's heath. Not all of the health events were negative. Here's one example, when the opposition was about 3' from exact:
A new, cheap, easy-to-take pill to treat malaria which effects children, is being introduced  the first product of an innovative partnership between an international drug company and a medical charity  (3/1/07)

When Saturn and Neptune were 5' apart:
Pro wrestler Chris Benoit strangled his wife, suffocated his 7-year-old son before hanging himself with a weight-machine pulley as a result of "roid rage". (6/24/2007)

Saturn/Neptune contacts can be an indication of an attempt to stop drinking. Britney entered rehab when T. Neptune trined her N. Saturn


During past Saturn/Neptune contacts, issues concerning the health of the elderly have been in the news:

In July 2001, the House Government Reform Committee's Special Investigations Division issued a report which found that in the previous two years, over 30 percent of nursing homes in the U.S. were cited for a physical, sexual, or verbal abuse violation that had the potential to harm residents. Even more striking, the report found that nearly 10 percent of nursing homes had violations that caused actual harm to residents.

The contact sometimes corresponds to the dissolution of structures. The Berlin Wall came down during a conjunction of Saturn and Neptune in Capricorn (2 degrees 15' orb).

In past Saturn/Neptune contacts, issues concerning the health of the elderly have been in the news:

Even more striking, the report found that nearly 10 percent of nursing homes had violations that caused actual harm to residents.

July 30, 1965, Social Security Act of 1965 was signed with the trine exact; also Medicare and Medicaid established with the same bill

Water events: June 2016 Saturn Sag sq. Neptune Pisces
Severe flooding across Europe.  President François Hollande declared a natural disaster for the region around Paris as days of torrential rain sent the Seine 18 feet above its typical level. The Louvre and Musée d’Orsay prepared to evacuate some of their masterpieces. The storm system, which caused flooding in much of central and northeastern France, also inundated southwestern Germany, killing at least nine.

Three soldiers were killed, three others injured and six were missing after a US Army truck was swept from a low-water crossing and overturned in a swollen creek at Fort Hood, Texas on Thursday. 

Earlier that week:  sunken ships confronting Europe with the horrors of its refugee crisis, as desperate people trying to reach the Continent keep dying at sea. At least 700 people from the three boats are believed to have drowned, the United Nations refugee agency announced on Sunday, in one of the deadliest weeks in the Mediterranean in recent memory.  The latest drownings push the death toll for the year to more than 2,000 people

China has once again vowed to ignore a landmark legal ruling from the Court of Arbitration in the Hague about its South China Sea dispute 

6/11 "Studies Find 'Super Bacteria in Rio's Olympic Venues and Top Beaches'
6/23 "The New Panama Canal: A Risky Bet; How a $3.1 Billion Expansion Collided with Reality"

Are you wondering about Pluto in Aquarius?

Pluto reenters Aquarius on January 20 2024, for the next 19 years.

Practically from the moment Pluto last entered  Aquarius, in February 1778, affiliations and changes of affiliations with momentous consequences took place, regularly.  

An official timeline of the American Revolution may not seem like the most interesting read, but if you're wondering about Pluto in Aquarius, it spells it out in a simple and literal way.

I've bolded the text which identify the groups and affiliations and their big picture or long term significance.   


February 1778    France allies itself with the new American government. French financial and military aid will prove critical in winning the war.

May to December, 1778    With barely 150 men, Virginian George Rogers Clark convinces French-speaking inhabitants of Kaskaskia and Cahokia to support the patriot side. Although Indians will continue to oppose white settlement for three decades, Clark's exploits pave the way for the expansion of the U.S. north of the Ohio River.

 May 12, 1780    British strategy is now to hang on just to the southern colonies

October 7, 1780   Patriot militia from the Carolinas, Virginia, and present-day Tennessee surround and defeat a force of loyalists  with only one British soldier on the field, this is truly a battle among Americans about their future.

September to October, 1781   A joint French and American force traps a large British army; they surrender.   New York City and Charleston, S.C., will remain in British hands

 January 1782     The evacuation of loyalists begins. Largely unwelcome in the new United States, about 100,000 Americans who remained loyal to the crown find new lives in Britain, Canada, and British colonies in the West Indies. Among them are about 15,000 African Americans, some of whom end up helping to found the country of Sierra Leone in Africa. The loyalist experience will have a profound effect on the development of Canada's national identity.

 September 3, 1783     The Treaty of Paris ratifies the independence of the 13 North American states. Canada remains a British province, beginning its separate development as a U.S. neighbor. 

 October 1784   The Treaty of Fort Stanwix imposes a peace on those members of the Iroquois Confederacy that sided with the British in the Revolution. The war's aftermath will prove devastating to Native Americans. With no European allies to rely upon, Indian tribes will be under increasing pressure from settlers moving west out of the original 13 states.

 

Note: each of these events involved conflicting partisan groups, with outcomes that had profound short and long term consequence. 

The Tracy Chapman/Jason Aldean connection is Pluto in Aquarius.

Russell Brand

 A reader asked if I'm alive.  It's time for a fresh post.

Russell Brand.  June 4, 1975   12:05AM Orsett, UK

IMO, the circumstance is described by his aspect of Asc=Sun=Venus=Neptune=Uranus=Zeus, all within a degree of each other.

T. Pluto is conjunct his natal Ascendant and triggering the whole picture.

And P. Sun is square to Uranus, just past his tight Uranus/Zeus aspect.

It covers a lot of ground.  From a tech standpoint: the Twittter  feuds; the expulsion from Youtube and  a history of  disruptive media activity.    Some of it was while he was still using drugs.  This is described by his opposition of Sun and Neptune but more specifically, Sun=Neptune/Zeus which describes aggressive behavior on  drugs or alcohol.  (That post is being updated and coming soon)

From a personal standpoint, Venus and Uranus are  a wildcard for relationships.  But he's also got natal Juno=Mars/Hades describing base (abusive, disgusting, maybe illegal) activity with women.

Mars/Poseidon

Mars/Poseidon 

The active principle of Mars: religious or political activity; association with others who are active in religion or politics.

 Involved with ideological/ethical organization and activity  

  Outspoken about views; stand up for religious or political opinions. 

•          Religious conversion (also Uranus/Poseidon and Pluto/Poseidon)

 Martial effect: 

•        Social, religious, political views or activities are oppositional or defensive.

•        Disruption, aggression, war for the sake of belief 

•        Assault by religious or political figure. 

 Several religious antagonists of historical significance had natal Mars/Poseidon aspects.

Before he was a leader in the Transcendentalist movement, Ralph Waldo Emerson was a minister who left the church after he became embroiled in controversy over his refusal to administer important rituals, writing the essay, “A young minister refuses to perform crucial duty”.   He outraged the Protestant community with a speech which “discounted biblical miracles and proclaimed that, while Jesus was a great man, he was not God: historical Christianity.”  He was denounced as a poisoner of young men's minds”.1  His SR contained Mars=Poseidon=Aries.  Natal Mars//Poseidon

John Brown, an evangelical minister, was the leading proponent of violence in the American abolitionist movement, saying “repeatedly he was following Christian ethics”.2  With N. Mercury=Mars/Poseidon 4’ orb, some important events highlight the Mercury component:

When he met a military tactician with whom he wrote a tactical handbook, Brown had Mars/Poseidon and Mercury coming to Aries and the Sun.  (His time of birth DD rated, so I did not emphasize the Asd. or MC,)   His Harper’s Ferry raid went wrong when a train passed through, resulting in casualties inflicted by Brown’s men, who “inexplicably” allowed the train to pass…into the next town where they notified officials.                                   

 Immanuel Kant was forbidden by law to speak in public on the topic of religion. 3  The date of the decree in 1794 is not chronicled but T. Poseidon was within one degree of a conjunction to his natal Mars that year. N. Mars//Poseidon

         Johann Wolfgang von Goethe’s “unorthodox religious beliefs led him to be called ‘the great heathen’” resulting in opposition to the creation of a Goethe monument “on account of his offensive religious creed”. 4

His Mars/Poseidon aspect was part of a larger picture with Uranus and the Moon.  P. Poseidon stationed within 1’ of the  Mars/Poseidon midpoint for over 20 years, spanning the time when his university “dissertation which questioned the status of the Ten Commandments, proved too scandalous to be accepted” 5 and he wrote Faust. about a man’s deal to sell his soul to the devil.

Martin Luther was a convert who started a religion.  He was excommunicated as a heretic, with Mars/Poseidon SA Sun 2’ orb September 15, 1520 

Luther “Encouraged priests to marry when that was forbidden by the Church and advocated divorce according to biblical principles” 6.  This is symbolized by  MC/Venus/Saturn=Mars/Poseidon.  

 He was also a highly influential antisemite.  When his natal Mars/Poseidon was exact by progression, he published a book calling Jews “the devil’s people” and advocated setting synagogues on fire, forbidding rabbis to preach and expelling them “for all time”. 6  “We are at fault in not slaying them…God's anger with them is so intense." 6

Adolf Hiter studied Luther.  Hitler had a wide semi-octile of Mars/Poseidon, but even more descriptive was a tight midpoint picture of Hades=Mars/Poseidon, which the RPP delineates as “Morally base acts.  Lack of ethics”. 

 Mars/Poseidon was  one symbolic component marking acts of  his thuggery-driven by ideals, as was Hades.  Here’s an example: On September 14, 1921, Hitler disrupted a meeting where an opponent spoke.  He was beaten and shoved off the stage.  Hitler was arrested but pronounced the incident a success.  “It's all right. We got what we wanted. He’ didn’t speak" 7     Mars/Poseidon SA Sun and  T. Mars=N. Hades. The opponent (Mars/Saturn=Hades=Poseidon) was murdered when Hitler came to power. 

A pivotal moment in Hitler’s combative ascent was an attempted coup d'état known as the Beer Hall Putsch, when 20 Nazi’s and police officers died.  Mars and Poseidon were SA to each other and T. Mars was with Hades, triggering the Mars/Poseidon midpoint.  (November 8, 1923)

Another turning point “pivotal in the establishment of Nazi Germany” 7  was the politically stoked Reichstag fire.  Hitler blamed the Communists and now had a convenient excuse to exhort President Hindenburg to pass a decree suspending civil liberties and detention without trial, enabling Hitler to detain his opponent and win the election just weeks later.   Mars/Poseidon SA MC 

The founder of  the Jewish Self-Defense Organization, advocated arming Jews against the imminent danger he foresaw.  In 1935 he said: "Catastrophe is approaching. ...I see a terrible picture ... the volcano that will soon spew out its flames of extermination," 8  He was Ze’ev Jabotinsky, Sun and Hades =Mars/Poseidon (<34 no TOB); Sun//Mars//Poseidon).  Note both Hitler and Jabotinsky (and Osama Bin Laden) had Hades=Mars/Poseidon.

Another icon of Jewish self-defense was Avraham Stern (Stern Gang).  Born with natal Mercury=Mars/Poseidon (noon chart <34), his poem set to music, Unknown Soldiers, told of  “Jews who would not be drafted by other countries while they wandered in Exile from their own country, but rather who would enlist in a volunteer army of their own, go underground and die fighting in the streets only to be buried secretly at night”. 9 

 Over a quarter century before Hitler’s rise, France was polarized by the Dreyfuss Case,  springing from the unjust conviction of a Jewish army officer for  allegedly providing military secrets to the enemy.  Alfred Dreyfus had prominent Mars/Poseidon aspects, as did a number of his opponents, the unabashedly antisemitic anti-Dreyfusards.   When the real culprit was acquitted with false evidence, Emile Zola’s expose of the injustice, “J’accuse”, ignited "tumultuous demonstrations nearly every day" 10 by anti-Dreyfusards.    

 

Alfred Dreyfus had N. Mars/Poseidon=Aries precisely  as well as a tight semi octile of Mars and Poseidon, part of a larger picture which included Kronos and Vulcanus (below left), spelling out the highest levels of government involvement.   The release of .J’accuse and the ensuing riots were marked in Dreyfus’ chart by Mars/Poseidon SA MC and Sun SA Mars/Poseidon precisely.   

One outspoken AntiDryfusard was the artist Edgar Degas, a “ferocious anti-Semite”. 11   

Degas was a follower of La Libre Parole, published by the head of the Antisemitic League of France. Both the League and the publication commenced when T. Poseidon was square to the leader/publisher’s N. Mars.  He had same natal picture as Dreyfus: Mars=Kronos=Vulcanus=Poseidon.   (Edouard Drumont)

 Over 140 years later in France, Brigit Bardot has been convicted and fined 6 times for promoting racial hatred.  In letters she wrote responding to the Muslim practice of slaughtering sheep, she’s accused of “making racial insults in her writings about animal abuse”, using terms like “degenerate savages”. 12

 My personal opinion is that she’s probably a bigot, but her activity on behalf of animal right is “moral behavior” indeed.  When the natal aspect became exact by progression, she joined her animal rights foundation with an Indian foundation, holding annual meetings in a Buddhist pilgrimage spot.  The first meeting she attended was marked by 2 SA pictures: Mars/Poseidon SA Asc. and SA Sun  (Chart right).  She’s not a Buddhist but she continues to attend.  

 There are other aspects for harm in some religious context.  Pastor Clementa Pinckney was assassinated in a bible study class in church.  Although his natal Mars/Poseidon=Aries <30’ orb, he also had a tight Chiron/Poseidon aspect, which also appears regularly in similar, even identical, events. 

 His shooter had the north node of Chiron conjunct natal Poseidon.  T.  Poseidon was within minutes of his natal Chiron.  The event occurred with T. Mars=T. Poseidon.  (Dylan Roof)

 The  list of violent. politically motivated ideologues with Mars/Poseidon is long and varied.  Some of them are: 

David Koresh (Mars//Poseidon), Timothy McVeigh (Sun=Mars/Poseidon), Ted Kaczynski (MC=Mars/Poseidon),  Jim Jones (Mars=Saturn=Poseidon close to the AP), Gordon Liddy (Mars/Poseidon=Aries), Ayman al-Zawahiri  (Mars/Poseidon=Aries), Osama Bin Laden (Sun=Hades=Mars/Poseidon <38’ orb).

 Spanning the politically charged 60’s and 70’s were ultra-radicals Cathy Boudin, a founder of the Weather Underground who served 23 years in prison for killing 2 policemen in a robbery and Bill Ayers of the SDS and Weather Underground. who went on to bomb the Capital Building and the Pentagon.  (Boudin had Mars/Poseidon=Aries <17’ orb and Ayers had Mars/Poseidon=Aries 3’ orb) 

A leader in the 60's German Red Army Faction, Andreas Badder had a semi-octile of Mars=Poseidon, part of a larger picture MC=Mars=Saturn=Node=Cupido=Poseidon (and Juno). (Below left)  

He was radicalized by a riot which began as a noise complaint over late night music.  When the musicians were arrested, scuffles broke out, leading to four days of street battles between 40,000 young protesters and police on horses.  T. Poseidon was stationary, forming an antiscia to his natal Mars 10’ orb. 

When he  and his girlfriend protested the Viet Nam war by bombing a department store, his SR had an exact conjunction of  Mars and Poseidon On the day of the bombing, T. Mars was with Poseidon and explosive Uranus, all contacting his natal Uranus.  Note the Juno ingredient; his girlfriend participated and a department store was the target)

Dealing with belief driven conflict is part some peoples’ jobs.  Once Mayor of Bordeaux,  philosopher/essayist Michel de Montagne successfully moderated the hostilities between the local Catholics and Protestants.  Earlier in his career, he accompanied the king to a siege during the War of Religion.  When the siege began, P. Mars=N. Poseidon 3’ from exact.  When he arrived, Mars/Poseidon SA MC precisely.

 A victim of weapons and ideology who didn’t believe in either was Robert Oppenheimer, one of the casualties of the 1950’s Red Scare.  Due to his perceived association with Communists, the chief architect of the atomic bomb was denied his security clearance.  The revocation occurred with P. Mars was exactly square to his N. Poseidon.  No natal aspect.  P. Poseidon was exact with his Sun; after his clearance was revoked, he withdrew from professional life and spent his time sailing in the Caribbean with his family.                

Miscellany

James Baxter flagellated himself for the purpose of religious penance.  Also an activist for Māori culture and a religious convert.  (Mars//Poseidon)

 Henry III religious self-flagellation; murdered by a monk.  (N Mars qx Poseidon. 

Event: murder by a monk: : Mars/Poseidon SA Sun)

Literature:

T.S. Eliot wrote Murder the in the Cathedral and was a religious convert. (Mars//Poseidon)

Louis Celine wrote A Fine Mess denouncing Jews, Freemasons and the Catholic Church.
