SCORPIO II 2017
Labor of Hercules
Slaying the Lernaean Hydra

On knees to lift the evil writhing Hydra into wind and light — the mystical 9th head of power buried under a Rock. Kundalini with Fire of Mind and Spirit conquer the entrenched reptilian instincts to become Asklepios and Healing Shaktipat; Scorpio wrestles again with Antares (cf. Gemini) as Ophiuchus and Hercules; Victory when the 9-headed Hydra seen as a unit.

Motto: Warrior am I and from the battle I emerge triumphant.
(Scorpio stages the release of Leo)

The Crises of the Soul — Battleground, Birthplace/Labor, and Burning Ground — All Testing is self-engineered, no matter how clouded one’s apprehension. All initiation is self-administered, otherwise it would not be fully conscious. With Capricorn, Scorpio rules the Twelve Labors of the Sun God Hercules, and particularly the Hydra’s Nine Tests of psychological hygiene. In Scorpio we find how spiritual values and life are anchored in daily struggle and ephemera.

Scorpio II
Scorpio, the Centaurs, and the Scorpio-Centaurus Association

A new planet is arising in the sign Scorpio. It is Chiron.
The Centaur asteroids represent the past expression of the sign Sagittarius in ancient humanity, and now represent the personality character tests in Scorpio, and the Mentor and Healer when exalted in present-day Sagittarius.

This transition from Scorpio to Sagittarius — from the Scorpionic maximation of profit by w-t econ elites through the waste of personal and group resources in promoting and distributing ‘self-medication’ by Centaurs returning from battle debilitated by the wide range of PTSD and neglected disability conditions, to the oblivious self-assured elites drugged on OCD/ADD economic or political power through personal control of resources — to Sagittarian Chiron, the wounded and self-rehabilitated Mentor, can be seen in the thousands of town and state initiatives that have begun to recognize that the wounded are the best healers, whether in the much abused and neglected veteran population or in the addictions of the general population in social despair and economic desperation. The condescending dismissal and refusal of recognition for this value of redemptive service since the 2016 election is another illuminating example of the war between these two groups — between values of redemption and conservation of society, versus conservative self-serving greed behind veils of ‘social conservative’ hypocrisy or stupidity; between bought and purchased (and blackmailed) public representatives versus public servants with souls intact; between labor and capital (when will this last social kindergarten lesson be learned by the accidentally and unconditionally privileged and entitled cunning social gambling and experimenting social cybernetic (automated social control) game-theory set of degraded human-animal elites?) — The world is aghast at an escapist America that should be a light-bearer on world problems.)

Chiron and the Centaurids are found in the direction of the Scorpio-Centaurus Association (the Southern Stream or “Via Combusta” (noted by Charles Jayne and Michael Erlewine), an open cluster which is disintegrating on the opposite side of the star-birthing Orion O-Association, which two Associations frame –on either side– our Gould Belt of seven clusters including the Ursa Major cluster and our own Sirian System cluster). See Hypotheses Derived from DK’s Treatise on Cosmic Fire and Esoteric Astrology, JEP 4/2 1988. Our Sirian System is composed of stars of (0-20) light-year (ly) distance between that of the Ursa Major Moving Group and the Hyades. These closest stars to our Sun appear to be spread out across the sky (because they are so close). Being able to visualize in four kinetic dimensions helps. The centroid of the Southern Stream is at 26° Scorpio (1950), close to Rigil Kent at 28° Scorpio (Alpha Centaurus). Antares, which once used to be considered a foreground star, not discernibly a member of the Scorpio-Centaurus Association, is now recognized to be a member. Its stars range at 130-425 light years distance, from late Libra to late Sagittarius by ecliptic longitude.

Seven Constellation System

The motions of the seven open clusters of the Seven-Constellation System all converge around Lepus, which is why I included the graphic of a classical Greek krater of a young (star-birthing) Orion running in a circle, pursuing the constellation Lepus the Hare when discussing the Seven-Constellation (open cluster) System in 'Three Cosmic Decanates and Their Axial Coordinate System'. JEP 5/2 1989.

[Krater (1989)]

When Scorpio-Centaurus is examined in relation to the Pole Star and Draco in our Local Gould Group system, it is as though Draco is casting off an old skin of redshift stars in the Scorpio-Centaurus direction as the proper motions of all the 7-9 clusters of the Seven-Constellation System speed toward the Orion star-birthing O Association in Gemini, along with the expansion of our galaxy via our local Orion Arm within which the Gould Belt is situated. This image makes sense if one takes the Ourobouros icon as spiral-cyclic in nature rather than simply circular. The head of our Seven-Constellation System, Ursa Major (80 ly) or Saptarishi circling the Pole Star (precession star) with the much greater distant Draco (and the still birthing but dying Sco-Cent (500 ly) Association) might well indicate a Round in both the cosmic and esoteric sense — the head of Ourobouros (Ursa Major) appearing to bite its own tail (Scorpio-Centaurus). The System of seven constellations between Scorpio-Centaurus and Orion (Ursa Major Moving Group stars (80 ly distant), our Sirian System stars (0-20 ly distance), the Hyades, Coma, Pleiades, Praesepe and α Perseus open clusters) are on the Gemini-Sagittarius axis, with its axial points in the direction of Polaris (29° Gemini) and the Galactic Center (GC), calculated at various points between 27° Sagittarius and 0° Capricorn. As this indicates, our Solar System’s and Earth’s “north” as defined by the Pole Star are pointing in the direct opposite direction from the Galactic Center. The Sun’s Way, its actual apparent direction “north”, in relation to the 25K year precession cycle, points toward the direction of the star Vega (14°Capricorn) in Lyra, the Lyre of Apollo the Sun god. Amazing how these systems “name themselves” for both the astronomical and astrological communities.

The Gould System (our "Local System") containing the Seven Constellations is c.3000 light years across.

The Scorpio-Centaurus (Sco-Cent) Association is c.380-470 light years from our Sun, and c.100x300 ly in size.

The Orion OB Association and star-birthing region is c.1200 light years distant. Our Local Bubble (or Chimney) of hot, diffuse hydrogen plasma is 300+ light years across. Its Loop I Bubble was created by the detonation of 1-2 supernovae in Scorpio-Centaurus within the past 4M years, though there have been 14-20 supernovae during the past 11M years. It is suspected that any supernova c.130 light years distant would have a major impact on Earth. As it is, the strong stellar winds from star formation and supernovae 4M years ago in the Scorpio-Centaurus Association (others say 1-2M yrs) may also be linked to extreme ultraviolet sources above the galactic disk, thus creating a “Chimney” through the galactic disk associated with the Local Bubble.

Between 40 and 150M years ago, it is suspected that Sco-Cent was spherical in shape and c.7100 light years from our Sun in the (present) Sagitta-Vulpecula direction and was disrupted c.40M years ago to take its present oblong shape in three subgroups from 11M to 15M years in age and position at 380 to 470 light years from the Sun. (Erlewine) However, the mystery of moving clusters, which have motions expressed as straight lines (in the case of the seven-constellation system converging around Orion and Lepus) are suspect because of the pervasive spiral-cyclic nature of motion in our galaxy. The mystery of the long-term open cluster movement within larger systems —involving radial velocity, proper motion, transverse velocity, and space velocity— has not been solved definitively by astrophysicists.

For example, the Sun was assumed to be periodically moving north-south on the Orion Arm of our galaxy into a possibly hazardous ‘dust cloud’ when it is now known that the motion is rotary spiral-cyclic (accomplishing the same result). The question remains whether we are being invaded by a rogue Sco-Cent cluster coming from a great distance and which is being repelled, or whether it has always been associated with us in this larger spiral-cyclic motion, as a cluster which is now cast off and dissipating.

The old red-shift (receding) stars of the departing Sco-Cent Association are exploding into supernovae, blasting our solar system with their stellar dust and bow waves of UV ultraviolet radiation. The intensity of these blasts depends on their size and distance from our solar system.

"Until the force of the cosmic lunar Lords is sought for, the fact of there being entire constellations beyond our solar system in process of disintegration in time and space in a manner similar to the disintegration of the moon will not be known nor the effects of this traced." (Bailey, A Treatise on Cosmic Fire, pp.834-35)

While DK is speaking above of constellations, such as the Sco-Cent OB Association, we can definitely take a look at the particular solar systems within that ‘constellation’ that have died and whose effects (of decay) may be traced in the environment, in humanity, and in the kingdoms of nature on our Earth and more broadly in our solar system... [See compilation on Cosmic & Systemic Moons]

“They are not the lunar pitris, as that term is commonly understood, but have a direct connection with what is called “the cosmic moon” or to that dying solar system which has the same relation to our system as the moon has to the earth chain." (CF 1112) [Nota bene:] and [See compilation on Seven Rays of Individualized Spirit]

The debris from two of the most recent supernovae “cosmic moons” in Sco-Cent has been identified via FE60 concentrations in sedimentary fossil record seabed layers from cores taken in the Indian and Pacific Oceans. FE60 has a half-life of 2.6M years, and so only two of the FE60 sedimentary depositions can be dated, although older depositions exist, with probably more to be found.

There is increasing discussion linking an earlier supernova event to the Permian marine mass extinction period on Earth c.200-300 million years ago (one of the “Big Five” extinction events on Earth). Scientists have not determined the mechanism, although massive UV radiation destroying Earth’s ozone layer has been discussed. However, at 100 ly, another ‘blast’ factor is most probably implicated. This suggests impacts on the Kuiper Belt and the continuing generation of comets, asteroids, systemic debris, and possibly the exchange of asteroids for planetary moons.

These two supernovae can be found (epoch 2000) at 26° Scorpio 46’02.5” (-05 57 lat.) (c. 2.3M yrs BCE) and 27° Scorpio 57’45” (-26 27 lat.) (c. 1.5M yrs BCE) in Ecliptic longitude and latitude.

One possible electric or gravitational effect of this latter supernova impact (1.5M years BCE) might be the Toledo Caldera left by the Valles volcanism of 1.6M BCE. This second supernova took place close to the time that the Valles Caldera near Los Alamos NM erupted c. 1.6M years BCE, creating both the older Toledo and the more recent Valles Caldera in the greater Jemez Volcanic Field. This volcanic region happened to be where the SRI chose to hold its two IAEA conferences in 1994 and 1995 (IAEA = International Academy of Esoteric Astrology).

While these dying solar systems are "not the lunar pitris", it is through the refinement of Mars and Chiron that the lunar lords are brought under the control of the solar lord. This project of self-possession of individuated self-control begins and is supervised on the Mutable Cross by the great planets Jupiter and Mercury (Sun). Jupiter and Mercury are simultaneously the planets that refine and control affairs on the Mutable Cross (as in buddhi, and meditation). Mars and Chiron operate in Scorpio on personality and soul conflictual levels, and in Sagittarius on the hierarchical plane as the goal for IVth Creative Hierarchy humanity on planet Earth.

In the Chart: It is curious to relate these points to individual charts, strictly recognizing that contact with the outer planets represents a generational factor, and secondly that any negative effect of de-generation, corruption, or decay can be turned to spiritual and humanitarian advantage by the soul. I have added Alcyone positions, along with the planetary (heliocentric) nodes of Mars and Mercury — because they are so close, and all these Scorpio placements need to be made distinct. Both planets rule conflict — physical/mechanical/concrete mind conflict exhibiting as coercive force, and the contrived conflicts of the fluid/manipulative/lower mind (both seen in the case of the population now being considered). Additionally I include the Chiron Node since this is our topic of consideration.

Here are some hits from a few example charts in one of my more recent folders. The groups covered in the following tables include the Trump administration and advisors, plus the (one to three) latest rulers, Presidents or Prime Ministers of the major nations (west and east). A few exceptional/notorious recent/contemporary individuals are added (and listed). Also included are a few events of planetary significance, keeping in mind that nations, international institutions, and events must be interpreted differently to human individuals. I include the Mercury Node, since it is so close to the Mars planetary node and needs to be distinguished. Both planets rule conflict — physical/mechanical/concrete mind conflict, and the contrived conflicts of the fluid/manipulative/lower mind (particularly in the case of the population now being considered).

Dramatis Personae
UPDATE 2018 April 15

As a double-check, from over 200 charts of historically prominent psychologists and philosophers I found almost no conjunction aspects to these two Supernova points at all (Freud and his daughter Anna were exceptions). [more later...] Perhaps the most this ad hoc observation of current affairs (in the U.S.) says is that these two supernova points are not as significant for self-starting thinkers or forerunners; and perhaps they only partially characterize those who can only be limned as ambitious and sub-par niche-fillers.

As a further check, please consult the much larger list of world leaders included in this research, but who are not to be found in these tabulations for lack of the requisite placements. As 'World Aspirants' are they pillaging Centaurs or mentoring and healing Chiron? The question to ask is whether we have non-aspiring ambition in rhetorical 'aspirants' (no matter what the lip seice otherwise0 — or do we have someone transitioning from ambition to Aspiration, whose values are primarily self-observation and improvement and working or fighting for the good of greater wholes, something greater than themselves, family and friends. Scorpio is found in everyone's chart, and so the skill in ascertaining which values (Taurus) are operant will involve delving into sub-surface matter. This assumes that capacity is present and active in the 'esoteric' astrologer.

International Leaders
UPDATE 2018 April 15

Members of the present U.S. mis-administration are highlighted in bold. So are the miscreants of ‘big data’ who have attempted to rig national elections in defiance of democratic values, guiding principles, ideals and historically grounded institutions, and those who fomented Brexit through ‘cybernetic’ and demagogic manipulation of emotive demographics. Whether one thinks of present events in the U.S. as causally related to the T-Rump S.H.-in-chief (to use his own term) and his A.W. cabinet’s deliberate malfeasance, or to a Trickster-in-chief who has inflated Wall Street with tax abatements to corporations but who somehow forgot to apply tax enhancements to stock and shareholders, abandoning the broad base of U.S. citizens, is moot. The destruction to the environment and to long-range planning has already taken place, seemingly prioritized above international diplomatic relations, and with total disregard to a balance of powers and the common-law regulations of civil society necessary to viable contemporary democratic governance. When Uranus and Chiron conjunct in Aries, there will be major changes in April and May of 2018, with numerous maladaptive self-interested obstructionist actors cast out by mid-May. [First posted December 2017] [Jupiter in Scorpio will be conjunct the heliocentric South Nodes of Mercury and Mars, as Uranus enters Taurus, the sign of its Fall, on 15 May 2018] Twenty years and more of “fake Republican” corporatist obstructionism is quite enough, and their “fake conservative” camp followers will be left flapping in their own wind. “He who spits upwind receives it in his own face.” The American public is not that stupid — but I may be mistaken?
How does a nation arrest and rehabilitate or rid itself of psychologically dissociative State players/actors? In terms of public, media, and democratic representative response, it seems passive codependence has trumped intelligent cooperation in facing this challenge to democratic values and institutions.

On a tangent, the predominance of Neptune placements in Libra and Scorpio reminds me of the astrologer Isabel Hickey’s comment that the Nazi storm troopers of WW2 would be reincarnating when Neptune returned to Scorpio. It must not be forgotten that this Neptune placement also indicates high creative endeavor in a new ‘age of improvement’. One only has to look to (rather, search for) all the world projects in the sciences and in the environment that are NOT covered in the ‘news fit to imprint’ the general public through the major media infotainment outlets. ; At the same time, most media commentators, including the senile PBS without benefit of rhetoric or debate training, take the Unmentionable-in-Chief's verbal operant-conditioning ploys as talking points, increasing the sense of delirium produced by news that is fake. Granted, while there is a predominance of Trumpland personnel found in these positions, there are quite a few stellar characters who stand out from that Darkness. Their names should be recognized in silence to avoid their being targeted by "trump trash."

The major point of this article can be found here. The tabulations above illustrate the different expression of Chiron and Mercury-Mars nodal placements — between those on the Wheel revolving backwards through the signs for the "dangerous and ambitious" unredeemed Scorpio natives, and those progressive and creative thinkers ('world aspirants') driving forward on the Wheel from Libra to the evolved Scorpio individual through the same Zodiacal signs. This has to be taken as a major point for esoteric astrologers — Mars and Chiron and the Two Doors (and Wheels) into the sign Scorpio represent the clearest indicators of which wheel the 'aspirant' is to be found — materialistic and self-interested or orientated toward taking responsibility for the world-burden.

We are focusing on the Heliocentric Nodal positions related to planetary affairs, rather than on the Geocentric nodes more relevant to personal and familial concerns. The Heliocentric Nodes bring in a solar force which tends to over-stimulate and destabilize the weak and vacillating to a point of self-destruction, as it simultaneously drives and carries the socially and humanitarianly aware (evolved) individuals on a wave of solar and planetary-wide evolutionary purpose.
It is not by chance that Cambridge Analytica chose to incorporate with Saturn on the heliocentric South Node of Mars. It is clear that on a world-wide level the low note of militant, wrangling and crisis-habituated Mars will inevitably be brought to heel through the re-examination of inexorably developing 'big data' in relation to human interests and survival on the planet.

The obscene spectacle of 24 “Fake Republican” Presidential Candidates attempting to fill their campaign coffers ASAP in 2016 before the public could catch on to the money-laundering and patronage usages of these funding scams would be hysterically funny if it did not represent virtual terminal decay in the agenda-polarized and greed-paralyzed American body politic.

From this list, it would seem the ‘mis-Administration’ can attract and tolerate women with strong Chiron nodes and placements, but not so much those with Mars. Such instances of strong Mars nodal placements include Hillary and Pelosi. It seems as though women with strong Chirons are received much more cordially than those with strong Mars positions... I will let others debate the symbolic and operative gender politics and interpretive truths involved, along with their implicit ramifications. Have fun and play fair!

Various possible scenarios have been discussed. Here I am no discussing politics. I am stating Facts; make of them what you will. Do we have a tired and emotional mentally deficient but cunning (to use his own metaphor) F'ing Moron (Tillerson quote)-in-chief with a revolving ad hoc A.W. Cabinet devolving into quasi criminal syndicates month by month? Is it possible we have a Trickster-in-chief who after putatively encouraging investment with corporate tax abatements, somehow forgot to raise the taxes of corporate shareholders qua proxy ‘corporation owners’ and CEOs instead? Could it be we have an invisible puppet-master’s Jester-in-Chief suckered to fool around with his base constituency in order to serve specific transient political/personal goals, and as a truly medieval allegorical Object Lesson to ignorant Trumpsuckers when the economy and employment collapse? Or is it truly too late when it comes time for national governments to learn McLuhan’s lesson of post-modern global villages run by feudalistic mafias and warlords, where nationalism and democratic citizenship are dying and irrelevant?

The latest lowering clouds of militaristic warmongering loom with the re-appointments of Pompeo and Old Mustache Bolton. It is clear that the current ex-nominee president has his face locked into the mirror of inadequate media coverage on the tv screen — but that strict unswerving attention to the rear-view mirror of fleeting reactions is rigidly maintained at the hazard of someone at the wheel of State, driving straight into the ongoing traffic of international affairs and increasing globalization. It seems likely that OCD deal-making without benefit of intelligent informed cooperation of an historically informed diplomatic corps to persuade and enforce agreements will do little to prevent, and probably aggravate serial crashes affecting the entire global system, built post-WWII. We are stuck again with a rabid disregard of the distinction between America's policing activities and its military involvements, just as the diplomatic community was confronted with during the War in Iraq (2003) and just before 9-11, the birthday of Bashar al-Assad, by the way. Is this Troika in close communication among themselves (ignoring all other governmental and diplomatic actors) competent to keep the world out of war with Iran? Military and governmental intelligence agencies seem to be standing aside like oblivious juvenile onlookers, powerless to maintain a 'Balance of Powers' in the U.S. and all the international norms and treaty agreements achieved post World War II. The astute North Korean dictators must be laughing themselves to tears as they realize the U.S. will be stuck in another 20-30 year morass while North Korea pursues its proxy role with an expanding China.

All in all, I retain hope that the women’s movement and the uprising of elementary and high school children/young-adults subjugate the demented and deficient adult-children who haggle endlessly for self-interest in our representative government and in the halls of our public schools, providing only a retrogressive example of bullying one's way ot the top of ad hoc administrative machine politics and control over student learning and life, dismissive of successful teachers. The youngest members of our citizenry are showing their ability to take matters in hand by confronting the "fake 2nd Amendment" gun-runners and arms-dealers (and their profiteers in government and corporate America) who are clearly distinct from those who see the original purpose of the 2nd Amendment.

A secondary effect of these detonating stars from the Scorpio-Centaurus Association is to dislodge Kuiper Belt objects, to send them galloping like waves into the orbit of Neptune and from thence, herded by Neptune, to join the Centaurs (Centaurid minor planets) to engage in celestial battle with Jupiter-Athena and the Sun, as is found on the Acropolis' Parthenon frieze (Elgin Marbles in the British Museum, western frieze in the Acropolis Museum, Athens). Many centaurids become unstable upon entry and as comets attempt to plunge into the Sun. Most are deflected by the magnetic field of proto-star Jupiter and held captive between the orbits of Jupiter and his grandfather Uranus. Saturn, Jupiter’s father, is helping them work out some loutishness in their collective karmic clearing-house, as this brief Dec. 2016-2017/18 Saturn-square-Chiron instance triggered and illustrates.

[Excerpt from Scorpio I]
Saturn-Chiron angular aspects are highly irregular in duration.

SATURN-CHIRON — Hard Aspects

Conjunct	1819	1883	1966	2028
Square	1828-29	1913-14	1875-76	2034-59
Opposition	1859-60	1922-23	1986-2006	2067-69
Square	1871	1935-52	2016-17	2080

Chiron conjuncted Saturn in 1966, and squared Saturn for two years, 1975-1976.
Since 1986, the year the Venus Heliocosm experienced an arm-shift from Virgo to Leo, Chiron has been in opposition to Saturn until 2006.
We are now experiencing a brief return to a 2-year Chiron-Square-Saturn period from December 2016 to November 2017, with the antics of wastrel centaurs creating a great mess which we can only hope will act as an object lesson to the wishful voters suckered by a Twitter-in-Chief with ego-stroking behaviors who is playing defense with weapons of mass distraction. When the weapons of mass destruction come out, it will be too late.
Chiron conjuncts Saturn in the year 2028, and then the Chiron-Saturn Square does not return until 2039-59, when it will involve U.S. and European relations with China and Russia, and a tendency to retrogression in all the South American strategic unions and treaties that exist at that time.
From the groundling level in the skewed playing field, all the above involves the common grubby materialist interests and focus on “exchange with conditions” found in the 8th house and Scorpio unredeemed by soul consciousness. In human social evolution, this oblivious distraction normally shifts into the desire to share and exchange knowledge interests ‒teaching exchanges‒ at first with familial relations, clans, communities, local and state affairs, and later widens to include spiritual interests and wisdom purchased by experience.
