Camille, Katrina and Ivan

By

On Monday Aug. 29 ’05 hurricane Katrina made landfall at 6:10am CDT at Grande Ilse, La. A look at the chart set up for this time and place shows a logical placement of certain planets at certain key placements in the horoscope. Key places in any horoscope are near the Sun, Moon, Ascendant, Descendant, Midheaven, and to a lesser degree, places opposite these points. Not only are the planets that we expect to find in key places in this hurricane horoscope there but a similar situation exists in the chart for Camille and Ivan. This is important because these three are all gulf hurricanes with significant storm surge.

In the Katrina chart Saturn, the planet of loss and bad weather, and Mercury, the wind planet, are in the rising sign, the sign of the Ascendant. Neptune or Poseidon, god of the sea, is in the Descending sign. These planets are in important places because the ascending or rising sign and the descending or setting signs mark the horizon and show the nature of what is coming to the person or event associated with that chart. And in this hurricane chart it is shown that loss, bad weather, wind, and storm surge came to them. The Sun and Uranus, although not in the rising or setting signs are within a reasonable distance from the rising and setting points, the Ascendant and Descendant. Uranus in Pisces is a rebellious sea showing up at dawn. Mars, the planet of destruction, is in the sign of the Midheaven, the high point in the chart. This is the way the chart says that the time is famous for trouble. Appropriate aspects, planetary relationships, are the Sun opposing Uranus and a “T” square between Saturn, Mars, and Neptune. The Sun Uranus aspect shows an unusual sea event happening at dawn and the T square between Mars, Saturn, and Neptune shows a relationship between destruction, loss, and the sea.

In Camille’s chart, once again, Saturn is in the ascending sign and Neptune is in the descending sign. Bad weather, loss, and the sea came to Pass Christian. The Sun at the midnight point squaring the Ascendant and Neptune focuses on and important sea event. Mars is in the 8th house, the house of death, squaring Mercury, the planet of wind.

In Ivan’s chart, although Saturn is not in the rising sign it is in a reasonable distance above the rising point. Neptune again is in the descending sign. Mars is in Virgo near Jupiter and squaring Pluto. The destructive planet is well represented in planetary relationships. Windy Mercury opposes Uranus in Pisces which we are associating with a disruptive sea.

It is especially interesting to note that Saturn in all three charts is rising above the Ascendant or rising point. This shows bad weather happening somewhat before the actual landfall which is reasonable.

It is also interesting to note a situation that is happening in the sky. We’ve noted that Neptune in Aquarius, Saturn in Leo, and Mars in Taurus form a T square. In late Oct ’05 Jupiter will enter Scorpio and change this structure to a grand cross. That is, two planets opposing each other and crossing two other planets opposing each other at right angles. Scorpio and Taurus are financial signs, Leo is associated with the speculation of the stock market, Neptune is the planet associated with oil and gas. To look at this in more detail, Mars in Taurus says financial trouble. Saturn in Leo says caution in the stock market. Jupiter in Scorpio shows increase in taxes, government spending, the cost of borrowing, and insurance, and Neptune in Aquarius shows gas and oil affecting us in a global way. People like me have been wondering about this grand cross. And it will mean many things at many levels. All four elements of it will be operative from late Oct ’05 until late Feb ’06. The hurricane is an event in itself but it also sets up the situation for financial events that are shown by these planets that are coming as a result of it.
