Mars Station

[Guest guest]

Dear Andrew, Dear List,

 

Just checked on Mars going station this week. Station will be on Saturday here

and is within a degree of Uranus, both in Dhanistha, Mars star. Moon also

entering Mars star, Chitra, on Saturday. Sun, Mars, Saturn and Uranus all in sub

of this Moon. Uranus is known to rule strong winds, storms and hurricanes.

 

Although Moon is conjunct Ketu, also in Libra, they are very far apart, but

still we understand Moon and Ketu being conjunct, and the interesting thing is

Ketu is in Jupiter's star. Something specific for you Andrew as per your

comments regarding this Jupiter and the effects on you currently with Jupiter in

Dhanishtha in your 1H natally and in transit on your 7H, directly opposed this

station Mars with Uranus.(And this stationed Mars less than one degree of your

natal Moon and transiting R Uranus conjoined this Mars less than two degrees

from your natal Moon and natal Uranus, with N Pluto also conjoined these in your

7H.)

 

Three of these planets, Mars, Uranus and Saturn, are in air signs, with Sun in

earth sign conjoined a Neecha Venus, both in Hasta, Moon's star and with this

Mars aspect. And also Hasta's symbol is a closed hand or fist.

 

It's interesting what you mentioned regarding the storms pounding the earth, and

the restlessness of this combination.

 

Dhanishtha's diety is the Vasus. They are traditionally known as

personifications of natural phenomena like water, wind, earth, fire and are

known as attendants upon Indra. In the Rig-Veda Indra is worshipped as a rain

god and appeased as a storm god. He controls the weather and rules the

atmosphere.

 

As you mentioned there are high winds and storms in many places right now or

have just passed as this R Mars at this very slow speed and about to go station.

In my area, where hurricane Isabel hit, they expected the calm to follow the

storm, but another night of high winds and rain and more flooding followed after

the big storm had passed and we had experienced some of the immediate effects of

'the calm after the storm' following a hurricane. It was a different storm

system which hit here following. It's very interesting to see the functional

effects of this.

 

Andrew I hope you are faring well and also your wife.

 

Best regards,

Patrice

Dear List,

 

Another interesting thing with the Nakshatras and this stationing of Mars,

who has been retrograde and as all know closer to Earth. As I included

Saturn due to being in the sub of the Moon along with this Mars, Uranus, and

Sun. Saturn is in the star of Ardra with Rahu as star Lord and Rahu in is

Aries, Mars ruled.

 

Ardra means wet or surcharged with water, symbol is a tear drop. Ardra's

deity is Isa, a god associated with wind and destruction. Isa means lord and

is a title of Shiva. Shiva is also considered to be Rudra, the god of

storms, winds and death. He is the personification of the unrestrained power

causing disaster and disarray.

 

It's interesting to see this theme repeating itself in the Nakshatras in

these transits and in the chart at the time of this stationed Mars, the

effects in these large wind storms and Isabel hitting the eastern US,

setting records, along with the fires ablaze in NSW Australia and other high

wind storms Andrew mentioned.

 

The Vasus including the personification of fire, from the deities of

Dhanishta. There have also been a number of fires in the DC area. There is

an arsonist who is thought to have started a great number of fires here and

officials are trying to track him, as well as other fires not related. And

in Montana in the western US, it was again having huge fire storms not long

ago, I'm not sure if they are over or not.

 

I love this with the Nakshatras and it continues but I won't here.

Interestingly though, for Mars and Sun, both of fire element, Agni, one

remedy I read was 'lamp, candle'. With all these storms and the electricity

cut off many are forced to use lamps and candles...

 

Peace,

Patrice
