The event chart of Thursday, for George's departure to Daytona is incomplete without mention of two more important Fixed Star placements. On the ASC, Deneb Algedi, the Tail of the Goat. With Neptune, as it is here: easily influenced, psychic ability, superstitious, reserved, economical, some gain thro speculation, many enemies, bad early environment leaving a lasting impression, morose & melancholy, accidents, death in a fit or by assassination.___Robson, Fixed Stars & Constellations.
According to Ebertin, its general influence brings a life full of change & gives integrity, justice & the ability to hold a position of trust. Ebertin says this will be achieved if the radical Saturn is well placed as is the case with George, who has an exalted Saturn. It is known for piety, self-sacrifice, offerings and beneficence. Presently the star is 23° Aquarius 32'. If you look at the chart for him leaving, the ASC and Neptune are directly upon that place, emotionally disorganising.
Mars when George left was on Deneb, a green star in the Tail of the Eagle, Aquila. This star has the nature of Mars combined with Jupiter: the ability to command, liberality, success in war and benefice. This too from Robson. George hoped, H. 11 to act out, Mars, his philosophy H. 9 which Mars rules.
The Moon, Mars, Saturn and Neptune are always noticeable influences in our lives but when these planets come to the position of a Fixed Star whose potency has been observed for thousands of years, actions and events take on a fated quality. There is a new urgency to thought and deed. We have to study Mars right now, even as he leaves the rays of Deneb in Aquila; he is accented powerfully by the impending occultation. Mars occulted conjunct the solar eclipse. The chart for the phenomenon is on our Astro Calendar and has been since December. It is not the time to enter into quarrels or physical fights. Extreme sports and Olympian exertions are unwise. Engineers need to spend time making corrections at their drafting boards because it is not the moment to throw up iron & steel structures and machining goes awry. Mars propels us to take the plunge, pursue matters on impulse and at this time we must deny those urges. Soldiers, police and agents are adversely affected, also hardware merchants & livestock owners. Think twice and then rethink, Mercury retrograde is helping you there. The chart for the eclipse shouts from on high, H.10, "Scale down ambitons. Pride will take a fall!"
