Solar
Eclipse during Soccer World Cup Finals
Sunday July 11
July
11, 21.42 pm EET, Johannesburg, South Africa
Exactly during
the finals of the Soccer World Championship (between Holland and
Spain) a solar eclipse will take place... In Amsterdam 16
Capricorn is rising with the eclipse just in the 7th house, but in Madrid
the descendant is 19 Capricorn thus exactly conjunct the eclipse,
with Jupiter exact conjunct the 3rd house cusp (Koch). Since we
are having South African weather over here currently it is of course
always possible that I suffer from a stroke and don't know what I am
doing anymore, but this does point to victory for Spain.
Dennis Elwell
taught how to look at what the planets are doing (which aspects they
make) to interpret the energy of an eclipse. We see Jupiter conjunct
Uranus in Aries (soccer) square Pluto (topsport with an unexpected
twitch or with renewal). The eclipse itself is conjunct the
nodes of Pluto as well as conjunct its discovery degree. Quite often,
(more often than not) occurrences during an eclipse tend to create a
huge reaction (Moon) from the people collectively (Moon). We
can expect emotional outbursts and uproar, since the Moon is in
Cancer, wherever that will take place. Something strange or
upsetting may happen during the match itself.
Well, I am not
a soccer fan with Mars in Pisces, but a passive lover of music and
recently I am quite taken in by the African musician Geoffrey Oryema:
I found his
birthdate and place on the internet and the time is simply the time
of the day that I all of a sudden wished to have a look at his
chart, sometimes it works:-) Geoffrey Oryema is an interesting
figure as he combines Western (hippylike) music with traditional
African songs. His mother was a balletdancer taking him
onstage at an early age and his father was prime minister of Uganda,
murdered during the regime of Idi Amin. After that event Geoffrey
was smuggled out of the country in the trunk of a car, he currently
resides in France. Well, maybe you can look for yourself
whether you think Cancer rising (with Venus/Neptune aspecting it)
and with the Moon in Gemini would be fitting for him:
