25 by daz madrigal I tend to go along with Robert Hand in relying more on planetary natures of planets than the sometimes questionable interpretations in Robson. Bellatrix has a long connection to martial matters. It carries associations like the other stars in Orion which were linked from ancient times with stormy and unpredicable weather. As a Mars-Mercury star the martial nature of the star is quite clearly accentuated by the close proximity of the planet Mars. The proximity of the SN does not assist a postive interpretation of the stars influence here. You are beginning to win me over, Mark. I've now noted that both Bellatrix & Capella are "martial" stars conjunct not only the Mars/SN in this chart but far more appropriately also in the chart for the Oslo attack. I remain slightly baffled by the lack of "unfortunate" stars in this one of the most evil and malevolent events in our history.

26 by daz madrigal Well lets take the sabian degree for the Sun residing in the 9th house of the Oslo chart... A DAUGHTER OF THE AMERICAN REVOLUTION KEYNOTE: The prestige and conservatism of a long-maintained heritage. An example of what occurs when the individual chooses a path which totally embodies and glorifies tradition, a path which ends in a GLORIFICATION OF THE PAST. The will and ability to maintain a social supremacy based on thoroughly established tradition. ___*When positive, the degree is an infectious pride in leadership through which a group is able to act as a unit, and when negative, the ultimate betrayal of selfhood by a false assumption of superiority. I think that says it all really, it neatly encapsulates the socio-cultural and political views held by the perpetrator (Sun). Far too many people take the initial symbolism too literally but in essence it simply describes someone who is a member of a small group espousing old fashioned values...the fact that the Sun is very debilitated astrologically underlines the negative symbolism here. I simply cannot find that clarity within the fixed stars. Mad Daz's Place, quiet but never boring http://pinkmelon.proboards82.com/index.cgi Quote Tue Jul 26, 2011 4:31 pm
