Google Yankee doodle Astrology of Dr. Robert Moog electronic music inventor by Tara Greene
May 23 2012 is the celebration of the 78th birthday of Doctor Robert Moog the inventor of electronic music with his new fangled electronic synthesizer patented in 1966 which was filed in October 1969.
It’s 43 years or a Uranus opposition to the time the Moog synthesizer was first patented.
Dr. Moog worked with early electronic music pioneers John Cage, and Wendy Carlos an American composer and electronic musician, whose recording in 1968, Switched-On Bach, music by J.S. Bach painstakingly assembled, phrase-by-phrase, on the Moog which was a new and unknown instrument. The album was awarded three Grammy Awards in 1969. He also worked with Rick Wakeman of YES,and Keith Emmerson of Emmerson, Lake and Palmer fame amongst others.
Lady GAGA and all of modern music would be nowhere without Dr. Robert‘s invention.
Lets check out Dr. Moog’s Natal horoscope to see evidence or lack of his musical genius.
Born May 23 1934 in New York City I have no birth time so will use NOON time as birth always for a famous person.

All inventors are AQUARIUS types,
Dr. Moog has his NORTH NODE representing his highest spiritual goal at 13 degrees of Aquarius.
He also has SATURN, the builder, the architect, karma, the father principle, at 27 degrees of Aquarius close to the position of the Fixed star
Fomalhaut aka Angel Gabriel- the one blowing the trumpet- music-the announcing angel. SATURN is the traditional ruler of AQUARIUS and so is very powerful. Dr. Moog is considered to be the chief builder and inventor of electronic music, the real founding father. That’s a perfect harmonious fit!
He had the Moon in Virgo it looks like on that day. Moon in Virgo people are very focussed, analytical, perfectionist, practical, hard-working, detail oriented and doing the VIRGO thing of being of service to the world.
VENUS rules music. Venus is in what pioneering, forward thinking sign then? ARIES of course. VENUS in ARIES is the pioneer, the self motivated individual, the leader, the first, numero uno, chock up another one!
Venus rules the signs of TAURUS and LIBRA
Dr. Robert had MARS in TAURUS -
TAURUS is the sign of “I HAVE”.” As the first earth sign, it literally means I have my body, my hands, my senses, the resources, tools,money
In a 2000 interview, Moog said “I’m an engineer. I see myself as a toolmaker and the musicians are my customers. They use my tools.”
So we see his MARS as action principle, libido, drive, testosterone was ruled by VENUS and her love of music. It’s all about creativity.
Bob also had JUPITER planet of OPTIMISM, expansion, International connections,risk-takers, philanthropists, leaders, in LIBRA
so VENUS rules JUPITER as well. Now Jupiter is Retrograde which means there is a karmic connection here.
I immediately thought that Dr. Moog was an ancient musician for many lifetimes, I say him wearing a Greek toga, playing a lyre and he worshipped Terpsichore the ancient GREEK GODDESS one of the nine MUSES of the Arts.
There is in fact an Asteroid named after Terpsichore and where is she in His natal Astrology chart?
At 28 degrees 49 minutes of VIRGO conjunct his MOON { his mother}.
Dr. Moog’s mom must have been playing music all the time when she was pregnant or sang. Or he had a very strong soulforce connection and new what his genius was. He was conscious since before birth I sense, of what Dr. James Hillman calls the Daemon,or Guardian Angel which he wrote about in his best selling book THE SOUL’S CODE which I highly recommend.
Here’s the BEATLES singing Dr. Robert http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VMHLrqKTOfA&feature=related
Dr. Moog had his SUN at 1 degree of Gemini, coincidentally close to the May 20th solar eclipse and MERCURY in GEMINI which is very strong in its home sign, plus Chiron at 4 and Asteroid Ceres conjunct the Sun. I bet Mr. Moog was a typical archetype genius but scatter-brained professor, very intelligent, very curious, very young, a great communicator.
NEPTUNE the “HIGHER OCTAVE” of VENUS is at 9 degrees of VIRGO, shows Mr. MOOG again as a symbol of a VENUSIAN, creative, diligent, hard-working, making NEPTUNE practical. NEPTUNE which rules spirit and all creative inspiration comes down to earth, is a useful time-saving VIRGO tool.
Dr. Moog has URANUS the ruler of his North Node and SATURN at 29 degrees of ARIES,
indicating he was meant to be a very radical independent modern technology inventor, someone whose invention would bring freedom liberation, self-expression to. 29 degrees is also a critical or karmic degree,,,
He had PLUTO in CANCER conjunct LILLITH
in a square to Jupiter and VENUS and bringing in URANUS.
He must have had a lot of difficulty with women,or was attracted to very powerful women. I sense that the Moog synthesizer, the prototype of all modern electronic pop music, had this LILLITH driving energy coming through Moog’s Soul behind it. As if Lillith Herself instructed him from the unconscious or super conscience to create an instrument of radical freedom,modern liberation… exactly where would LADY GAGA be with Mr. Moog or Rhianna or any rapper?
Why did GOOGlE choose tohonor DR. MOOG’s birthday now? Well the planet MARS is exactly on his Natal NEPTUNE now at 9 degrees of VIRGO.
We hail you and thank you Dr. Robert MOOG for your new fangled in 1966 invention. You gave the world a great invention.
I’ll leave you with one of my faves of pop music YELLO -oooh yeah! with some good astrology symbols the moon the Sun! so beautiful OH YEAH!

The last Dance for Donna Summer, love to love you, Donna’s Disco Astrology from Tara Greene
Never can say goodbye, but sad to hear of Donna Summer the Queen of Disco passed away May 17 after a lengthy bout with Cancer at 63.
Born LaDonna Adrian Gaines on Dec 31 1948 she was a legendary American singer, songwriter and artist. Donna leaves behind her husband,three daughters and four grandchildren.
Best known for her twirling mirrored disco ball hits Love to Love You Baby, Hot Stuff,She Works Hard for the Money
A five time Grammy award winner. Donna holds the record for having three consecutive double albums go to the top of the album charts and she became the first female artist to have three number one singles in a twelve month period.
Lets look at her Astrology chart. Born Dec 31 1948 at 9:00 pm in Boston Massachusetts.
Donna had a lot of CAPRICORN energy, the sign of worldly success, hard work, staying power. Born with a very lucky and career success oriented chart Donna had the
Sun conjunct Jupiter exactly conjunct at 10 degrees of Capricorn.
Also Mercury Mars and the Moon in Capricorn, also a very powerful combination for writing, communicating,hard work,stay with it power.
An earthy VIRGO ascendant with Saturn Retrograde also conjunct her natal chart. She grew up in a strict, Saturnine, traditional religious family. She was no stranger to hard work.
Her North Node her highest spiritual goal is at 2 degrees of Taurus in her 9th house of International relations. Her south Node, symbolizing the past is at 2 degrees of Scorpio in her 3rd house of communications.
The Scorpio south node shows a deep ingrained passion drive and desire behind all that hard-working earthy,Capricorn Virgo Taurus earth.
LOVE TO LOVE YOU BABY oozed SCORPIO sensuality, I remember how it turned everybody on,. That’s why it was such a hit.
she had Pluto in Leo in the 12th house that is heart and -soul and very spiritual drive to be a STAR!
Venus in Sagittarius -also at middle powerful degrees in the 4th house means she connected with the entire world and was very popular Internationally.
Neptune ruler of higher octave music is at 15 degrees of Libra in the 2nd house of money, the middle degrees 14 and 15 are always the strongest point. Her spritual gift of song, made her successful. She had real soul behind what appeared to be a superficial element- Disco. But disco following has grown over the years in popularity as a nostalgia item, and Donna’s songs proved to be long lasting.
Her Mid heaven or highest career point is one degree 28 minutes of GEMINI where the eclipse is occurring on May 20 is.
Donna hid her trials with cancer.
The Astrology at her death MAY 17 2012
Pluto Lord of Death and rebirth was conjunct her Sun and Jupiter, for the last year.
Saturn, the GRIM REAPER is also retrograding and has been SQUARING her Moon since November 2011, Saturn was just square to her Mars and was approaching a square to her Mercury.
THE NORTH NODE the highest spiritual calling has been SQUARE to her Saturn and her Virgo Ascendant since the beginning of 2012.
CHIRON the wounded healer has been opposite to her SATURN and Ascendant since March this year.Chiron was sitting exactly ono her Descendant,t he point where one interacts with the World.
All in all, my intuition says that her higher self knew and that she wished to experience the May 20 solar eclipse from the point of view of Spirit.
Donna Summer’s spirit will be dancing and singing and helping us boogie through the transition of the Solar Eclipse on Sunday MAy 20.
MAy she sing and dance with joy eternally.
Thanks for the LAst dance with you Donna,
Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, Laura Nyro,gets her Saturn Solar return due
11:11:11 report from Sedona,Tara Greene psychic spiritual adviser
I journeyed to the magical red rock vortexes of Sedona Arizona along with many hundreds of other spritual seekers and other tourists who just happened to be here fot the event.
I arrived Nob. 8th which is the cross quarter day in the Amerindian sacred round of the year occupying the position of the North west on the wheel,
This is the place of karma and dharma the place of sacred magic ruled by the crow or raven, and in other teachings ve come across also symbolizes the Places of Power on the planet. Of which Sedona is well known, as well s the pyramids, Mt. Shasta, Lake Titicaca, Tibet etc.
It snowed the day before, and I heard the road up to Flagstaff was closed done. The 13 crystal skulls from Mayan legend, or facsimiles were brought to Sedona on the 7th and there were supposed to be ceremonies and 400 peopple showed up. But I heard that no ceremonies occurred. Drunvalo Melchizadek was on hand though.
There were many workshops,talks,lectures, info sessions,preparations going on by various and sundry spiritual groups and individuals: Chakra tours, DNA strand activations, ascention preparations, meditations, body work, vortex tours, weddings, chakra balancings, UFO sightings, crop circle info. exchanged, metaphysical music, sound healing performances, sweat lodges, horse back rides, clearings, past life channelings, Arcutrian, Lemurian, Atlantean, Sirian, Pleaidian, Zeta Reticuli, 10th dimensional, 9th Dimensional, walk-ins, NDE exchanges, Burning man devotees, John of God followers, Dahwn yoga,angelic messngers,deep trance, crystal healing beds, aromatherapy, hypnotherapy, rolfing,dancing, drumming,camping out, yoga, trance dancing,Kabbalah, Astrology, synchonicities, healings, searches for the Holy Grail, raw foodies, organic everything, arts and Mary Magdalen’s name bantered around everywhere. MM knows everyone in town here.
Nov. 8th I am a bit jet legged upon arriving. Check in at the Super 8. Symbolizes Super Infinity. My friend Jospeph-Mark a Kabbalistic Astrologer and scholar of many metaphysical mediums from Nelson british Columbia comes to fetch me as I don’t drive due to an unusual visual perceptual issue.
11:11:11 goings on in Sedona
OUr 11:11:11 ceremony was on Shnebley Road, by the area called cow pies. We created a tree of Life. set alcohol on each Sephiroth to make elixers with after. Did prayers. Circumnabulated the Tree 33 times in Total, Prayed in Hebrew, English, Sanskrit Sang, danced, It was joyfull. A couple was getting married off in the distance.
Spirit flattens me but angels save me
Our 2nd cermeony of the day occurred in Fay Canyon off of Boynton canyon. There is an arch or cave up a pretty steep climb. Some women came by to our ceremony where there was a natural mesa, we used herkimmer diamond crystals, and charged more alcohol for elixiers. Apparently this cave has Arcturian enegies. I had brought my Medicine Pipe and did an Native American Ceremony and prayers off to the side. After my cermeony as I was getting ready to walk down from the cave I suddenly fell, it was so fast, I landed flat on my face. I couldnt believe it, There I was face down eating that famous red rock dust and praying that my teo front teeth didnt get knocked out. And of course i am wondering what the heck was that? I had broked my fall with my hand and there was a little bleeding and I had a fat lip but seemed miraculously to be relatively unharmed. I was helped down by a nice man with climbing poles. I realized afterwards just how lucky I was and truly felt protected by the many many angels that are all around me now.
The woman who found the Holy Grail
Part 3 of my 11:11:11 involved a woman who had come to speak with my freind Jospeh MArk about his Kabbalistic and esoteric knowledge, We went to his freinds house and waited for peopple to show up for a talk he had intended to give. This lady claimed she had actually found the Holy Grail in Wales, it was an olive wood cup, traditionally used for wine in Sabbath ceremonies. She said it had been kept secret but that the crown of England had extensive documentation in secret of the healings that had been associated with people who touched it or who drank water form it. As hse told her story I could see and feel the energy as she told us about the miracle of the ever replenishing waters and how drinking from the Holy Grail made her a total lover and knower that there is only One Unity,no duality.
Well that is what the 11:11:11 energies are all about
She gave me a hug and I felt that christ like energy of enlightenment, divine love and acceptance come through her. It was excilerating.
NOv. 12
I go to have a special treatment on a chakra lazer bed. This is form the John of God healing center I believe. I had tried this treatment a few days ago and liked it. I immediately saw visions of the Goddess Isis as I lay on the bed.
This time I needed more time and was given an hour but was going so deep I asked for more time. I spent one and a half hours on that bed. It opens one;s chakra’s. Answers your intentions, I was given some specificinformtion.
Following a flyer we found at the Health Food Store,later we ended up at the Sedona High School where there was a special performance of dancing drumming and a Meditation Teacher who we didnt know anything about.
The teacher is a Korean breath teacher Ilchi Lee, a famous Dahn yoga instructir who has livedin Sedona for 15 years. He showed this amazing video which showed the benefits of breathing techniques. Here is a sample of this awesome footage of russian freestyle diver with Beluga whales insub zero waters swimming naked.
There were 3 big busloads of Korean tourists i think who drove in to watch this famous unbeknownst to us, cultish leader, he was fun.
One ting after another, people would show up to lead me or to absolutely synchronize into the flow of the ocnversation.
Valentine’s Day Gaga-dance, sing,LUV Tara Greene Astrology of Feb 14
First of all Happy Valentine’s Day gift from me to you.
Watch this stunning combo of some of my all time fave stuff.
I love dancing- Eleanor Powell, she was beautiful and one of the best tap dancers around.
One of my favourite songs by fave writer Leonard Cohen- Dance me to the end of love
Madeleine Peiroux a Billie Holiday sound- alike who i didn’t know of till now!
So whats the cosmic weather really like for V day 2011?
The MOON governs the overall reigning feelings emotions memories and instincts of any day.
This V day in additon to all the romantic hype will be replete with high emotions moods and very sentimental with the Moon in Cancer. Be sure to go to a homey comfort food place for dinner or cook yourself at home. Cancer Moon likes traditional, and the way to a Cancer moon’s valentine’s heart is through the stomach. Apple pie of course just like Mom made it.
Cancer mOon opposite Pluto in Capricorn at 6 degrees, wow this changes it up. Pluto demoted or no is POWER, SEX, SECRETS, kinky,atomic, underworldly,totally nihilistic indulgences,the death and resurrection show! so Mom vs. all the things she forbade you to do in tantalizing opposition. First we’ll play house nice and then we’ll mess it up under the rug… whatever your fancy desires!
VENUS planet ruling LOVE, ROMANCE, women is at 12 degrees of capricorn also still opposite the MOON and conjunct Pluto. so sexy intense, passionate, jealous, steamy, lots of Victoria’s secret lingerie, dark raw chocolate till spread all over, oodles of roses till they almost sell out the entire planet. Venus in Capricorn though is all business, so buy your favourite femme fatale something practical, tweedy even, for work, she can double deal in the daily grind,not just the bump and.
Venus Squares Jupiter in Aries so things will move along very quickl, dive right in, dont be shy.
Pluto forms a tense T-square with Retrograde Saturn in Libra and that Cancerian quickly moving Moon. Tense, intense, take her out to a Moroccan Egyptian or Middle eastern restaraunt. a bit of humour..again crying and or at least reminiscing over past lovers may come up during the evening inspite of your best efforts.
MARS? what about the planet ruling the male gender and libidos in general? Mars is cozied up to and sandwiched conjunct the Sun in Aquarius along with Mercury at 17 degrees and Neptune at 28 degrees of Aquarius, still wide but connected to Chiron the wounded healer at Zero degrees of Pisces.
Mars in breezy Aquarius is easy going humanitarian, love the one your with, he’ll buy you a save the polar bears, whales, indiginous peoples, raw milk or planetary something for Valentine’s day. That’s a good thing too! A bit detached, quick moving, freedom loving, inventive- new positions? tech-y gifts? how romantic you say. He’ll let you think it was your idea.
Mars conjunct Neptune-divinely romantic, full of poetry, art, fine wine, soul mates sparkly eyeballing are the vibes. Be carefull not to drink to excess with Mars and Neptune connected it could be too easy. Judgement will be cloudy, remember that he/she may seem like your soul survivor today and the total opposite tomorrow but hey.. youve got nothing else to loose. Chiron here indicates fragile hearts beneath that cool Aquarian, texty, smooch, hipster of the mo exterior, so dont be surprised when the mask falls with the underwear..
And remember by Wedenesday the Moon will swagger into Leo and the entire emotional picture will have changed.
Live everyday as if it were Valentine’s day…
I am here to help guide you with the Romance Astrology star crossed lovers department if it does work out and I hope it does. -have agood one.
Feb 15 is called Nirvana Day by the way.
Chile’s Mine disaster turned Miracle,Cosmic significance
The CHILEAN Miracle Miners RESCUE has turned a DIS-ASTER which means without the stars into its’ opposite, a miraculous ASTER. Aster means the Stars. It’s a 10 stellar miracle! *****
Tara Greene will interpret the cosmic planetary symbols and Archetypal messages. Its not what it always seems.
What the Cosmic Indicators means, the “AS ABOVE, SO BELOW” Hermetic wisdom of the Heavens about the Chilean mining disaster turned positive miracle world wide emotional outlet and feel good, be grateful to be alive and free, a restoration of faith.
I call it the 33 Men, Worldwide Initiation Rites of Rebirth from the Feminine – see below, as above.
The Astrology chart for the San Jose Mine, a copper and gold mine in Copiapo Chile which collapsed Aug 5 2010 at 14:05 hours CT. as reported by the mining company.
The astrology chart of the Mine collapse shows a very tight T- square.
T-SQUARE’S look like pyramid shaped diagrams of geometric angles called aspects between planets. The planets are aligned in such a way that one planet is in a 90 degree angle in both directions to 2 or more opposing planets. They are tense angles but the stress produces action. The T- Square’s apex starts with a Retrograde Pluto in Earth sign Capricorn in the 1st house of identity. Pluto is a key player.
Pluto is Lord of Rebirth, destruction, regeneration. Pluto never mind the demoted status to a Plutoid or “minor planet” is best known in the Greek myths for kidnapping Demeter the Earth Mother’s daughter Persephone by suddenly snatching the innocent girl and abducting her underground to the Underworld, Land of the Dead, the Symbol of the Unconscious and the Soul which he rules. Pluto is known as Hades, Lord of the shades, he is noted for power, control secrets, mines, darkness, the shadow, riches. You get the picture.
Pluto is squaring- applying pressure to Saturn and Mars conjunct in Libra. These two planets are known as The Great Malefics traditionally, bringer of sorrows, limitations, obstacles. In Libra Saturn, always the Lord of Karma is an exalted negotiator, balancing and being just and fair.
Mars the warrior is considered to be weak in Libra as it is the Sign opposite the one he rules which is Aries. Saturn and Mars are located in the 10th house of world Fame, High Noon of this chart. This symbolizes a karmic rise to power and fame.
Pluto is also squaring a Retrograde Uranus at Zero degrees of Aries- the world point in Astrology! Uranus god of sudden changes is conjunct Jupiter Retrograde at 3 degrees of Aries.
The MC – HIGH NOON position of WORLD FAME -shows 3 degree of Virgo at the top of the chart. This degree is Conjunct the Fixed star Regulus aka Archangel Raphael whose marker Star is at 28 degrees of Leo. Regulus is one of the four main archangel stars. Archangel Raphael rules the heart and his healing emerald green compassionate energies are very powerful. Considering that the miners, all very Catholic, prayed a lot for a safe rescue as did their families, the El Presidente Pinera et al and the headlines in the newspapers said:
”I was with God and I was with the Devil, they fought me but God Won. He took me by my best hand, the hand of God and I held on to him. I never thought for one minute that God wouldn’t get me out of here. The best-known miner, most voluble on video during their entrapped days, Mario Sepulveda, 40, told an interviewer shortly after he was the rescued.
So we can see the healing heart and hands of Archangel Raphael protecting sustaining and rescuing the 33 miners trapped for 69 days in the womb of the Mother.
The MC is also being Trined- an easy aspect by Lord of the Underworld Pluto himself. So the mine collapse on another level and abduction was for a soul healing and world-revealing lesson. Pluto in Capricorn is transforming all earthly things from corporations, to practical, long term, serious, responsible, of the fatherly and patriarchal things- that Saturn rules; structure, rebuilding, obstacles, karma, testing, limitations, ageing, etc.
Asteroid Ceres, who is the symbol of Ceres/ Demeter the Earth Mother Goddess Herself is in the 1st house on the Ascendant, mask or persona of this event at 20 degrees of Sagittarius.
Sagittarius is a mutable fire Sign of Higher Teaching, Faith, Hope, optimism, religious belief, philosophy, foreigners, laws, humour, easy going attitudes, all of which those miners had, used needed and which have come into play very prominently in this story.
Ceres/Demeter is about separation and reuniting. Ceres is sorrow, loss. Ceres is opposite the Moon at 14 degrees of Gemini in the 6th house, having just set at the time of the mine collapse it is just below the horizon line and conjunct the 7th house cusp, also known as the Descendant- where one interfaces with all other – You’s.
The Moon is feelings, emotions, instincts, the Mother, the Unconscious, memory, melancholy.
The Moon in Gemini is always the split in consciousness, duality, as Gemini is the sign of the thinking faculty itself as the first air sign. We see the opposition, a tug of war between the Archetype of the Mother Earth Ceres, and the split in the male consciousness, black and white, good and bad, mother and whore, us and them etc. As this archetypal battle is played out, the Moon has just squared Mercury at 10 degrees of Virgo up in the 10th house of career, fame, notoriety, and daylight consciousness. Showing how this activity will affect the World at large in a big way.
Mining is considered to be an act against the Earth Mother by indigenous Native Americans in South and North America. To take out her gold, copper, oil is to rape, damage and disrespect her. Venus ruler of Copper is also up there in the 10th house at 28 degrees of Earthy practical Virgo. This degree is exactly square to the Galactic Centre which this month entered a new degree, 28 degree of Sagittarius.
The Galactic Center is the Black Hole at the Center of our Milky Way Galaxy – named after the Goddess’s Milk of Loving Kindness, which spilled over and are our STARS in the Heavens.
According to Mayan archeo-astronomers and ‘glyphers The Galactic Centre is seen as a symbolic Cosmic Vagina, the birth giving and death bringing “weigh- station” of all souls. All the hoopla about 2012 as connected to the alignment of the Winter solstice Sun with the Galactic Center.
So we see Venus ruling wealth, copper, values, the Goddess, Love, luxury in Virgo bringing very Virgo-ian exacting, meticulous, hard work as a pivotal point in engineers co-operating from around the world to quickly perfecting the mine shaft, Phoenix rescue rocket faster than was expected.
Jupiter ruler of the Sagittarius Ascendant is conjunct Uranus in early Aries opposite Saturn and Mars in the 4th house which always symbolizes Midnight, the darkest, most private part of any chart, endings, privacy, family, the mother, the grave.
Jupiter rules all things Big, laws, expansion, gold, foreigners. Uranus is sudden, unexpected, revolutionary electrifying, altruistic, humanitarian things. Put that combo all together and it spells, well you can figure it out.
Besides the Astrology aspects what struck me was this:
This is a male initiation of rebirth through the feminine.
Note the Sacred Master Number of men 33, Christ died at 33, the 33rd Grade of the Masonic Lodges.
These 33 hard working labourers, karmic unconsciously surrendered themselves as initiates, sacrificial men who like Christ, archetypal have left their individuals lives to symbolize a greater transpersonal Life, for the greater Good of All.
Trapped for 69 days. 69 is a symbol of the balance of the masculine and the Feminine.
The rescue televised worldwide was watched by a Billion viewers mainly live in real time.
This was the antidote to tragedy, to the Gulf Oil Crisis and the Hungarian toxic sludge mess. All these dis-asters were man made of course.
The 33 men served as a collective Persephone, the young maiden innocent, pubescent daughter of the Great Mother Demeter. Pluto, Lord of Riches and the Underworld engulfs Persephone = the 33 men through a mining collapse. In the Myth Persephone stayed 6 months underground, becoming Pluto/Hades’ consort. She learns to “be with” death, transformation, loses her innocence, all psychological aspects.
In our modern retelling of the Ancient myth acted on the world’s stage the men undergo this Feminine initiation. They live survive and thrive in the Earth Mother’s womb. She has told them her secrets. They have returned to the day world of Light, they have met, confronted and conquered death. Death has become their, and our ally. They have been changed. Their changes affect everyone.
At ancient Native American Indian sites at Chaco Canyon in New Mexico, the people conducted their spiritual religious rites, worshipped and aligned with the earth and the stars in KIVA’S, which symbolize the womb/tomb, they are sacred underground “temples.”
These men served to function as a collective,humbling, enabling emotions, tears, hugging, sharing, cameraderie, fellowship, brotherhood by co-operation which ensures survival.
I see that these men unconsciously cleared a huge mass of negative energy by having to endure and surrender themselves to the Earth Mother. Whether they consciously pray to Jesus, Mother Mary, Allah, Kwan Yin, Buddha, the intention is all the same.
As the miners were rescued on Oct 13 this photo shows 2 men being midwives to the man emerging from the Underworld, the depths, the “belly of the whale” the Great Womb {and tomb-not yet in this case} of the Earth. I felt these men, ordinary lower class; workingmen of various ages shared in a survival mystique and their hopes, and strength over adversity give the rest of the world strength, co-operation, faith, a renewed belief in miracles. Of never giving up.
Asteroid Ceres on Oct 13 is at 1 degree of Capricorn, closely conjunct the Moon, which moved from 27 degrees of Sagittarius that day through Capricorn conjuncting Ceres, Pluto and the North Node at 5 degrees of Capricorn. It is by the Divine Grace of the Goddess that the men were rescued so quickly and easily.
There are other deeper labour and human rights issues, which haven’t been talked about much. The mine was unsafe, the value of gold and copper being so high these days that these men’s live which ordinarily would be considered “throw-away,” replaceable, have now become valuable beyond measure. Because of the disaster which turned out to be a miracle. New safer laws are going into effect. Chile’s GNP is 40% mining. Check this out:
They always say there’s a silver lining, or it’s a blessing in disguise.
Its Alchemy on a world wide scale. Alchemy is the symbolic turning of Lead, which is Saturn’s karmic symbol. Lead = fear, limitations, time, obstacles, negativity. Saturn is the Devil. Saturn is the Grim Reaper. Saturn is power and control, seniority. Lead is dark, dense, heavy. Saturn is the Earthly 3d, Saturn rules Capricorn. Alchemy turns lead into Gold. Gold getting increasingly valuable, symbolizes spiritual wealth, the Sun,the Light. The Source, faith, redemption.
So the 33 have redeemed us all, a little bit more.
The world watches, in the participation mystique and mysteries millions are moved to tears, everyone globally shares the same feelings, the same hopes, thrills even for a moment in the realization of what freedom is. How fragile life is, how close we can be to “walking in the valley of the shadow of Death.” We are all cleansed, renewed, happy.
