Colorado Walmart shooting

Post by Jim Eshelman » Wed Nov 01, 2017 6:48 pm

November 1, 2017, 6:30 PM or before, Thornton, CO

A shooting in a Colorado Walmart happened this evening, with reports of "multiple people down." Police were called at 6:30 PM local time, so the event began a little before. People's conditions are not known. Most of the details haven't been released yet. (LATER: Two deaths reported.)

I flagged Denver for attention in this month's predictions as a place through which a Saturn line passed in the Caplunar. {It grabs our attention since Marion and I were through there (just a few miles away) a couple of weeks ago.}

GOP Tax Overhaul Plan

Post by Jim Eshelman » Thu Nov 02, 2017 7:31 am

The House of Representatives Republicans released their proposed tax overhaul this morning. It's only a first gambit in the game now to follow, but it's making waves. (To my surprise, with its pro-business heavy leaning, the market still started the morning with a moderately big drop.)

This is one step in the process, so no hardline event tracking on it; but I suggest reading the current month's forecast with attention to the Libsolar forecast and the current Jupiter-Saturn seesaw in the Bridge section.

Today's daily timing for Washington is probably most strongly shown by benefics to the Capsolar: Jupiter square Capsolar Ascendant, and Venus crossing it's IC for Washington. Counterpoint that with Saturn's transit across the Cansolar's WP.

Shooting rampage in Northern California

Post by Jupiter Sets at Dawn » Wed Nov 15, 2017 10:38 am

November 14, 2017, began "just before 8 AM" (time the first 9-11 calls came into the sheriff's dept) in Rancho Tehama Reserve, about 130 miles north of Sacramento, CA.
Ended about 45 minutes later when shooter was killed by sheriff's deputies after being run off the road heading back toward his home from the Rancho Tehama Elementary School in Corning, CA, where he had rammed the locked gate at the school, but was unable to enter the school which was on lockdown. He killed four, including two neighbors, one of whom he was out on bail for having stabbed, and two other people. Among the people hurt was a mother who was in very serious condition after he shot up the car she was driving her children to school in. One of her children was hurt, and another inside the school was also shot in the leg

A lot of the coverage on this incident mentions a possible connection between domestic violence and mass shooters that was pointed up during the coverage of the church shooting in TX last week, which is part of a push to keep people with a history of perpetrating domestic violence from getting gun permits.

Update Re: Shooting rampage in Northern California

Post by Jupiter Sets at Dawn » Wed Nov 15, 2017 10:49 am

The sheriff's dept said a little while ago the total was 5 dead including the shooter and 8 injured in 7 different locations. 5 of the 7 hurt were children.

When serving a search warrant on the shooter's residence, they finally located his wife, whose body, shot several times, was found under the floorboards of the house.

Tehama, CA is only a few minutes from this, so I'll use it for the first pass.

Those few minutes might matter, since the Capsolar for Tehama has Saturn 3°17' below Descendant. As calculated, it would be dormant, though (if read) it would be highly descriptive, including a close foreground Venus-Neptune conjunction. (This one reeked of Venus-Neptune, when I read it.)

We get the Saturn anyway: The reigning solar ingress is the LIBSOLAR, which has Saturn 1° above Descendant and (fitting all sorts of themes) a close Moon-Venus conjunction.

The Arilunar is the main lunar ingress. Both it and the Caplunar have angular Mercury, nothing else of note. Mercury is rare in mass shootings except when they are tactical deployments, as this seemed to be.

The daily trigger - ah, here it is, just as predicted! - is the CanQ. The Cansolar's Venus-Neptune square, joined by transiting Neptune, contacts CanQ Ascendant, with an added Mercury.

Standing against this excellent showing - probably meaningful in ways unique to this event - Jupiter has been transiting square the Cansolar MC for the area and, yesterday, with Jupiter only 12' away from that, transiting Venus moved into orb of square MC. Venus-Jupiter are not in orb as an aspect, but Venus & Jupiter separately transit square Cansolar MC. I think, by the time this shakes out- there will be plenty of corroborating details, but one is already in front of us: News stories from the beginning have concentrated on the fact that so little damage was done at the school as a result of quick, effective lockdown action by the school. It's being written as a "good event."

I almost posted it with the "Good Event" tag, but decided not to because of the deaths. But the dude was literally going from one door at the school to the next, trying to get in. He intended to shoot up the kids as revenge on his neighbors for objecting to his behavior in the neighborhood.

Zimbabwe crisis

Post by Jim Eshelman » Thu Nov 16, 2017 8:49 pm

Zimbabwe's military has apparently overthrown it's decades-long president, Robert Mugabe, apparently in response to moves on Mugabe's part to further secure his long-term hold on the country.

I wasn't initially following this well enough to have exact dates, but it's all been happening in the last few days. Zimbabwe's capital is Harare. Mugabe is evidently under house arrest.

The country declared its independence November 11, 1965. If someone can track down a time, there is a solar return to examine here. Its current constitution was implemented May 15, 2013.

The 2017 CAPSOLAR for Harare is dormant.

The 2017 CANSOLAR for Harare has Jupiter 0°25' from Asc and square Pluto (1°0-4' from sq. Asc, < 3° from square Jupiter), with a foreground Uranus-Pluto mundane square and Moon mundanely square Sun.

The 2017 LIBSOLAR looks quite positive, with a Mercury-Jupiter square (0°16') exactly square MC.

The Otober 27 CAPLUNAR certainly speaks of the coup, with Pluto 1°56' from IC, Uranus 1°21' the other side of Uranus, and then a foreground partile square of Moon to Sun-Jupiter.

Keystone Pipeline leak

Post by Jim Eshelman » Fri Nov 17, 2017 10:35 am

November 17, 2017, morning, 3 mi SE of Amherst, South Dakota

Yesterday, the Keystone Pipeline suddenly leaked 210,000 gallons of oil in South Dakota. It's now been shut down temporarily (yesterday morning). This is in addition to a 16,800 gallon spill in April that took two months to clean up. The current spill is a dozen times larger than that.

Besides being a problem on its own, it has political implications because Nebraska officials are only days from announcing their decision on whether to let the pipeline extend through Nebraska.

Using 10 AM as an approximate time, and Amherst as the location, what do we see?

THE CAPSOLAR looks generally positive for Amherst, with Sun setting, Jupiter exactly square Descendant and the setting Sun, Mercury on WP. Pluto and, to a lesser extent, Uranus do play into the mix.

But the LIBSOLAR, as quarter chart, is another matter. Pluto is 1° below Descendant and Mars 3 1/2° from IC. Some sort of crisis, disruption, and damage are easily expected for a band that passes right through the area of the rupture.

For the week, MOON opposite URANUS (29') is minutes from square LIBSOLAR Midheaven. (Uranus is only 01' off for the town of Amherst.) This is in addition to a closely angular Sun (that obviously means the government will now have to get very involved: EPA is already in the loop) and Venus-Jupiter (meaning not entirely clear; I wouldn't even mention it if Venus weren't so close,and the Su/Ve and Su/Ju midpoints so close to the angles).

i don't see any daily timing factors, unless you count that yesterday was the day transiting Jupiter left orb in its opposition to Cansolar Moon. That would lift a bit of protection for the world overall, not linked to this site especially.

Since I had the Libsolar handy, it was easy to check this "minor player" chart - since neither the CapQ nor CanQ showed anything at all - and at least we get a strong ping from this: LibQ MC at 1°35' Aries for midmorning, was exactly on ingress Uranus and in orb of conjunct transiting Uranus. Actually, as the Libsolar has a close Sun-Uranus opposition, this brings the whole thing to the angles. Transiting Pluto remains in orb of Libsolar Descendant and transiting Saturn has been squaring Libsolar MC for the region.

NYC apartment fire

Post by Jim Eshelman » Fri Nov 17, 2017 8:38 pm

I don't know if it's going to turn into a tragedy, but right now there is a big apartment fire on the upper west side of Manhattan. Fire fighters have been kept pretty busy the last few hours.

Remembering Bradley's famous, simple rule that Mars on a CapQ angle will keep the local fire departments busy, I decided to see if Manhattan's CapQ followed expectations. The answer is... Yes, it certainly does. At the moment, CapQ Ascendant squares Capsolar Mars exactly.

Bradley's early impressions were that when Mars is in orb of quotidian contacts, "the general area is dangerously exposed to the likelihood of serious fires and appalling public tragedies... And if malefics hound the angles of the current Lunar ingress figures, or the quotidian transit is reinforced by a similar adverse pattern in the static framework of the Solar ingresses, the possibility of a conflagration of some sort becomes a virtual inevitability."

Unfortunately, the current Caplunar does have Mars in tight conjunction with IC, with Moon and Pluto straddling Descendant. That ups the chances that this will turn into something worse than a long hose-down.

The Keystone X-L Pipeline Route, approved, sort of

Post by Jupiter Sets at Dawn » Mon Nov 20, 2017 10:13 am

3-2, the Nebraska Public Service commission approved the ALTERNATE route for the Keystone X-L pipeline. It runs east of Trans-Canada's proposed route, and runs through the properties of 40 landowners who don't even know they're on the route, so haven't been able to fight against it in court. I hope there's a yet that can be legitimately added to that last sentence, but the people fighting the pipeline are not telegraphing their moves.

So Nebraska, currently my state, is still going to allow land and homes to be taken from Americans whose families have worked that land for 150 years, by condemnation as "public domain" for the benefit of a foreign corporation, and maybe a total of 15 jobs.

That leak in the Trans-Canada Keystone pipeline is capped at 210 thousand BARRELS of oil (not gallons), but additional crews are being called in to limit the damage to the land. Too little too late, but they don't want to pay overtime over the weekend.

They still don't know what caused the leak. I was too angry to pick up the time. Maybe later.

North Korea defection/ NK violates armistace.

Post by Jupiter Sets at Dawn » Wed Nov 22, 2017 11:59 am

UPDATE: Times found. See below for timing of events from CNN, but 3:15 PM local time is when the DMZ was violated.
November 13, 2017 in Panmunjom, NK/SK, still looking for the time.
This is a big scary one.

A man driving a Jeep drove past checkpoints, over the bridge and ran off into a ditch before reaching the DMV. He then ran for the white lines marking the border hotly pursued by North Korean soldiers, who proceeded to fire at him, with bullets going across the border. He made it to just across the border. At least one NK soldier crossed the thick white line that clearly marks the border and then ran back to NK. The defector made it across the border before collapsing. South Korean soldiers crawled to him and pulled him back behind the buildings to safety. This was all caught on tape by the UN.
Doctors at an American military hospital took out 5 - 6 bullets and a number of parasites, including a foot long round worm from a rupture in his small intestine.

This is bad bad because it means the NK soldiers violated the armistice agreement ending the 1950-53 Korean War by firing over and crossing the border. It means unless and until the US decides otherwise, we are back at war with North Korea. Which Trump has been threatening.

Edited to add:
CNN coverage
"The security footage released by the UN Command begins at 3:11 p.m. local time on November 13, with a wide shot of a military vehicle speeding down a tree-lined street on the North Korean side of the DMZ.
It moves past a North Korean guard post ahead of the bridge at 3:13 p.m.
What appears to be a soldier exits the building as the vehicle rushes past. Moments later, the vehicle crosses a bridge.
It then approaches a monument to North Korea's founding father, Kim Il Sung, the starting point for North Korean tours of the Joint Security Area. Carroll said there were no tour groups on either side of the DMZ when the defection occurred.
The driver turns right at the monument, just steps away from South Korea. It's still 3:13 p.m. Under the cover of trees, the vehicle appears to stop.
At 3:14 p.m., North Korean soldiers run toward the vehicle from an adjacent guard tower and from the steps at Panmungak, the main building on the North Korean side of the JSA.
The video then shows the defecting soldier getting out from the driver's side of the vehicle and starting to run.
Four North Korean soldiers appear in frame near the vehicle. One falls to the ground, though it's unclear why. Another appears to fire his gun.
One North Korean soldier then briefly crosses the MDL.
At 3:43 p.m., Col. Carroll says the video shows the defecting soldier lying against a retaining wall in a pile of leaves on the South Korean side of the DMZ.
It's another 12-minute jump to the following clip. It shows heat signatures of the wounded defector and three soldiers who are tasked with recovering him. More forces were in the area, Carroll said, but only three went to his immediate vicinity.
Two people -- non-commissioned officers according to Carroll -- crawl on the ground and make their way to the injured North Korean while another, who Carroll says is the South Korean JSA deputy battalion commander, stands guard."

Re: North Korea defection/ NK violates armistace.

Post by Jim Eshelman » Thu Nov 23, 2017 12:45 am

Yeah, this indeed has the potential to be a fierce trigger event.

So, first, let's compare the event to the chart for the armistice, to see (1) if it's a radical chart and (2) what impact, if any, it shows. The armistice was signed at the same spot, in Panmunjon, on July 27, 1953, at 10 AM JST. Here are transits to that chart:

Saturn was over a degree from the Armistice IC when this defection occurred, and has since gotten closer. The IC is 2°18' Sagittarius.

Interestingly, the event occurred with a 0°04' Venus-Jupiter conjunction, just as the signing was under a culminating 3° Venus-Jupiter conjunction; but transiting Venus-Jupiter made no aspects to the Armistice chart.

t Mars -45- r Mars -32' is the only partile transit.

But it was made more volatile by progressions. For one thing, the SNQ of the Armistice chart had progressed Mars 0°40 from quotidian Descendant. Perhaps the saving grade was natal Jupiter (and, maybe, Venus, depending on orb) on Q IC. But... damn, this is important... progressed Saturn has travelled six degrees since the Armistice was signed and progressed Saturn squares natal Mars to the minute, 0°00', while travelling 0°07'/year .

Transiting Mercury-Neptune square was also on these progressed angles and Mars. The SNQ is quote impressive.

Now... on to the mundane charts for the event.

CAPSOLAR. Sun is exactly rising this year. There isn't much else happening, though. (The Libsolar and Cansolar are dormant, and the Arisolar doesn't say much.)

CAPLUNAR. Uranus exactly on IC and some other minor stuff.

CANLUNAR. Probably kept things from going immediately to hell: Jupiter squares Ascendant, nothing else of note.

For the day, CapQ IC is in orb of transiting Neptune, which conjoins ingress Venus. There really isn't anything else except transiting Jupiter is conjunct ingress Pluto, both of them only moinutes from Cansolar EP.

Hundreds killed Egyptian Mosque Attack

Post by Jupiter Sets at Dawn » Fri Nov 24, 2017 9:52 am

Extremists attacked a Sufi mosque in Bir al-Abed in North Sinai, Egypt about 40km west of El Arish, capital of North Sinai.
Attackers in 4 vehicles planted and detonated explosives, and shot people as they ran. 235 dead, at least 135 wounded.
The timing was described as midday, during the sermon after Friday Prayers. Gunmen also fired on ambulances as they arrived. The Egyptian army is conducting airstrikes on apparent militants in the nearby mountains.

The attackers are believed to be the same extremists who have been attacking Coptic Christians in the area. They consider the Sufis infidels.

Navy transport plane crashes off Japan

Post by Jupiter Sets at Dawn » Fri Nov 24, 2017 5:40 pm

November 22, 2017, 2:45 PM local time in the Philippine Sea, 93 miles northwest of Okinotori island, about halfway between Okinawa and Guam. A twin engine Navy C-2A Greyhound transport plane crashed into the sea while transporting cargo and passengers to The USS Ronald Reagan aircraft carrier. Eight were rescued immediately and in good condition. Three have not been located and the search was called off this afternoon after two days.

This is yet again the 7th Fleet which is having a bad year.

This is another incident which makes me pay some attention to PSSI Capsolar Moon being opposed by transiting Neptune at the moment. On balance, I've not been impressed, but the easiest way to check is to follow Moon aspects, and Neptune to Moon is exactly the kind of thing to cause local hysteria over nothing at all.

The new CAplunar is dormant for London. The Liblunar persists, with Jupiter partile conjunct IC, conjoined by Venus. THough we've seen this for some types of horrors, it isn't typical (and it leaves the year, quarter, and week with Venus on an angle). And Venus is also exactly on CapQ IC! (It's entirely Venus' show.)

I expected Neptune, and the only Neptune isn't exactly tied just to today: It was square MC in the Cansolar as Year chart, and not is transiting Cansolar WP. So there's a bit of insanity. Perhaps there is more in the AriQ and LibQ, if someone wants to look. Mostly, the non-event was pure Venus.

November 15, 2017, ARA San Juan cut short it's mission and began to return to base after a short in it's batteries. The sub reported the short had been fixed, but was continuing on to base in Mar del Plata. On November 17, the Argentine Navy announced the sub hadn't been heard from since Nov 15 at 7:30 Local Time (10:30 GMT) when it was located approximately 268 miles east of the Argentina coast at the San Jorge Gulf.

Yesterday Argentina announced the Comprehensive Nuclear Test-Ban Treaty Organization detected "an underwater impulsive event" at 1:51 p.m. GMT (10:51 a.m. local time) through its underwater microphones which are set up to monitor compliance with the proposed nuclear test ban treaty around the world listening for signs of nuclear explosions.

There are at least 44 personel on board the San Juan, including the first female marine officer in Argentine history. They had between 7 and 10 days of air aboard at the time the sub disappeared.

Mount Agung eruptions

Post by Jim Eshelman » Mon Nov 27, 2017 7:39 pm

Mount Agung in Bali has been erupting. It's been a process, that in recent days has included blasts of ash 9,000 feet or so into the atmosphere. Something bigger might be happening in the near future. The story is so spread-out that it's hard for me to get details.

I'll start collating here what I know:

The volcano is at 8S27'20", 115E30'12", reaching an elevation of 9,944 feet.

In September, 844 earthquakes around the quake signalled that something was about to happen. (The peak was over 300 in one day on September 26.) Over 100,000 have been evacuated; many times that number probably will be evacuated in the next few days. A November 21 phreatic eruption released an ash cloud to an altitude of 12,605'. Magma eruption began early November 25. The only timed recent eruption known to me was November 26, 23:37 GMT. On the 27th, eruption ash was observed at an altitude of 30,000 feet.

Here's the interesting feature: There are no severe solar or lunar ingresses for the area now or for the next several weeks. So far, there is a lot of natural activity and no casualties or significant damage (though some concern of the climate). I'm not expecting destructive action there in, say, the next month.

But if something extreme is going to erupt - at least some local violence - we have a few CapQ vulnerable days coming up. Yesterday and today, CapQ Asc squared solar Mars, part of a Mars-Saturn square in the Capsolar Ascendant will hit Saturn over the next couple of days, then the CapQ MC will oppose Mars and square Saturn December 1-4, with CapQ Asc conjunct transiting Saturn December 5. That last feels like the climax of a build-up and the most severe day.

A remote lake in Southeast Asia conceals evidence of Earth's greatest volcanic cataclysm of the last 100,000 years. PBS (Nova)

About a month ago, I watched on PBS (Nova) a most interesting detective story by volcano experts recently discovering the site for this massive past megavolcano in Southeast Asia. If anyone gets the chance to watch this documentary, I highly recommend.
