Belgium attacks, astrology, eclipses

I am sending prayers for those who were killed in the Daesh Islamic Terrorists bombing in Brussels March 22. Two suicide bombs went off, the first at Brussels Airport at 8:00 am local time and another at 9:19 am at the Maelbeek subway station. At least 30 are thought to be dead with hundreds of injured.  This comes only four days after Salah Abdeslam, one of the Paris bombers, was arrested in Brussels. ISIS took responsibility for the attacks and warned of more for any country that is fighting against them. 

I wanted to check on the astrology chart of Brussels, Belgium to see how the transiting planets are affecting the city. Remember we are in the middle of two eclipses, the Solar on March 8 at 18+ degrees PISCES and the March 23 Lunar eclipse at 2 degrees Libra these events portend major historical events.   

SOLAR ECLIPSE CYCLES, the CRUSADES then and now

The Solar eclipse on March 8 2016 was part of SAROS cycle #130 which began on August 20, 1096. March 8th was the 52nd eclipse in that cycle.  I wrote previously about how very literally the rise of Islamic Terrorism is because of the original Crusades in Jerusalem. When did the first Crusade begin to take back Jerusalem from the Muslims? In 1096.  Daech fighters referto Belgium and all Western countries as the Crusader Nations.

On a world astr0-map for the Lunar Eclipse March 23, at 3 degrees Libra/Aries sits on the MC/IC axis of Brussels with Mercury there as well indicating this is a world-wide news story. 

The City of Brussels was founded on June 10, 1229 @ 12:01 pm Julian calendar.  What else happened historically in 1229? The 6th Crusade against the Muslims, Holy Roman Emperor Frederik II made a deal with the Muslim King. The Christians got back some cities, but the Muslims retained control of Jerusalem and the Dome of the Rock and Jews were not allows to live in Jerusalem again. You know what they say about history? 

The chart of the founding of Belgium and the first terrorist bombing at the airport March 22 2016 @ 8:00 am local Brussels time. Belgium was formed on  October 4, 1830 @ 1:53 pm in Brussels, chart not shown.

We know that Belgium has become a hotbed for Daesh terrorists. Historically Brussels is much connected to the very beginning of the  Christian Crusades against the Muslims who obviously  have long memories and hold grudges for 900 years. 

The Chart for March 22 attacks shows transiting PLUTO, Lord of DEATH, the Underworld, and all underground locations like subways, undercover operations, obsession, power, control and stealth, at 17 degrees CAPRICORN exactly conjunct to Brussels natal MOON, its people, its moods, its emotional and security needs in its own 4th house. This is the most natural place for the Moon to be.

PLUTO symbolizes the Collective Unconscious, the shadow, fear, projections. The Moon holds the personal emotional memories throughout the motherlines. Belgians are reserved, conservative, very close to their roots and traditions and are naturally ‘dry’ but nurturing and very private about their feelings. Pluto’s presence here symbolizes an undercover stealth deeply rooted in Brussels fabric. A kind of cancer that has been allowed to spread. 

Pluto is itself on the MC or world fame position of the bombing chart. PLUTO is also in Square to transiting URANUS  in ARIES the planet of explosions, chaos, revolutionaries of all types and exactly on Brussels Part of Fortune. The Part of Fortune is the “pot of gold” at the end of the Rainbow. In a sense it can also be seen as a hair-trigger in a rifle as it combines the Sun, Moon and Ascendant of a person, place or event. Uranus is on the cusp of the 8th house of death and conjunct to Asteroid EUROPA which was a famous Bull, but to me, signifies the EU headquarters which were  near the subway station’s bombing. This event may be a tipping point in the fight against Daesh and Muslims entering Europe.  The country will get Bullish about throwing out all terrorist suspects. Pluto is also opposite Brussels Mercury in CANCER. Everyone feels the pain. 

The March 8th Total Solar eclipse at 18+ PISCES was opposite to Brussels Natal PLUTO at 19 degrees VIRGO in its 12th house of secret enemies, opposing its Natal Saturn at 12+ degrees PISCES and squaring Brussels Sun at 25 degrees GEMINI. Transiting Jupiter and the North Node was also conjunct to its Natal PLUTO. This was being planned in advanced. This event is a significant game changer and ups the ante in the fight against Terrorism in Europe.There is the possibility of a very fascist political and a war situation beginning in Europe which could start a Third World War. 

LILITH and ERIS {not shown on the chart} are opposite each other. ERIS at 22 degrees ARIES , the Goddess of DISCORD is conjunct to Transiting URANUS at 19+ degrees ARIES which is square to Brussel’s natal MOON. This is hitting them at home,literally. and is the hotbed of discord. 

Trasiting SATURN in SAGITTARIUS @ 16 degrees EXACTLY squares JUPITER in VIRGO March 23. 

Transiting JUPITER in VIRGO is conjunct the MOON and the North Node at 21 degrees, which is opposite to CHIRON the WOUNDED HEALER conjunct to the SOUTH NODE and CERES, indicating the past, having to deal with religion and the motherland, nurturing and the harvest. What have we harvested? The Nodal positions affect the world in long term cycles. 

Jupiter, Moon, North Node is conjunct to Brussels natal PLUTO which is in its own 12th house of “secret enemies “karma, self-undoing. Jupiter expands whatever it touches. Pluto is nuclear power and the Nuclear power stations were carefully guarded during this time.Danger of nuclear weapons in all of this. 

SATURN, LORD of DEATH, Karma, trials, limitations, obstacles, is in SAGITTARIUS, sign of foreigners, immigrants, religious fanatics, travelling and airports, about to turn RETROGRADE March 25, the planet is very powerful, plodding very slowly. Saturn in Sagittarius also symbolizes governments, laws, restrictions on religious freedoms is squaring Brussels natal Saturn in PISCES at 12 degrees. Saturn in Pisces is about karma over religions  freedom, the history.

 NEPTUNE and VENUS are also transiting Brussels natal Saturn indicating, illusions, delusions,  deception. There may be some very strong insider government cover-ups. Or just plain sloppy Intelligence. Transiting Neptune on Saturn indicates the difficulty in rooting out the perpetrators. There will be new strict, Saturn like limitations in every walk of life, and limiting of religious freedom for Muslims. It is a Holy War indeed as Pisces is the sign of spirituality and Saturn is “SATAN” . Terrorists see all non-muslims as The Devil. And Pisces governs projections, which has us seeing all Muslims as Terrorists potentially. 

MARS the planet of Warriors is also in SAGITTARIUS and conjunct to Brussels natal URANUS at 5 degrees SAGITTARIUS indicating that this is a powder keg already exploding. MARS is also squaring Brussel’s natal Saturn in PISCES which indicates enemies and conflict over religious intolerance. 

ASTEROID ISIS named for the Great Goddess of EGYPT.

I hate to see Her name being taken in vain. But it is the commonly used Media name for Daesh Terrorists. I have included it in the charts. ISIS is at 13 degrees SCORPIO exactly on the attack charts Descendant and primarily it is opposite Brussels NATAL JUPITER ,VENUS, NEPTUNE conjunction in TAURUS in its own Natal House of transformation, death, taxes, power and control. Brussels was born with a very idealistic, beautiful and just society. Now being changed by these attacks.

Brussels has a beautiful Earth Trine when it was born which is being attacked by ISIS, PLUTO, JUPITER the Moon and the SOUTH NODE, all of which symbolize, memory, justice, revenge, obsession, religion, freedom and literally ISIS.

Mars will go Retrograde April 17 in Sagittarius at 8+ degrees which is conjunct to the Archangel ARIEL which symbolizes the personification of JERUSALEM, where this original Crusade began in 1096.  Ariel also means  an alter or the Lion of God. The Wisdom of Solomon describes Ariel as an angel who punishes demons. What is demonic is rather relative and depends on what one religion blames its own shadow onto.  Later texts describe Ariel’s role caring for nature.

I find this totally fascinating, I wrote before about the Paris bombing attacks. I find it very depressing and foresee much warring ahead.
