 |
|
I have read about how the founding fathers of USA were into
Astrology.....especially Benjamin Franklin.
My question is why did they pick July 4, 1776 to sign the
Declaration of Independence?
To me, it seemed like a bad day to sign
because of Sun Square Saturn and Mercury retrograde in Cancer
The Sun is in alignment with Sirius which is said to be a powerful
star.
but I don>t think that it trumps Sun square Saturn
heck,I have Moon in alignment with Fomalhaut, but I am like..so
what...it doesn>t trump my t-square Moon square the opposition of
Saturn and Jupiter-Neptune. my Saturn/Neptune midpoint happens to be
exactly opposite Fomalhaut too. I have Moon in alignment with
Fomalhaut and Moon oppose Saturn/Neptune midpoint with 17 minutes of
arc. It>s like My Moon=Saturn/Neptune and Moon-Fomalhaut theme in my
chart. It could be the conflict of idealism clashing with reality as
well as spiritual faith being tested by hardship. I admit that my Sun
trine Moon might help ease the t-square too.
it would seem to me that planetary aspects are more important than
fixed star alignments.
maybe USA>s Sun-Sirius alignment and Sun square Saturn share a theme.
It could be issue of pride,ambition as well as arrogance of a
patronizing nature(how dare our nature we act like somebody else>s
parents because our culture is superior - views shared by many
outside the USA)
Sirius *
the Dog Star
the Sun of the Sun
the prime Sun of our Galaxy Ambition, pride, emotionality, fame,
leadership, wealth, fires, drought, danger through impetuosity.

a retrograde Mercury in Cancer, is not a good time to be signing
documents....obviously when they signed the declaration of
Independence,they didn>t have all Americans in mind
the retrograde Mercury has an opposition to Pluto, but the founding
fathers didn>t know about the undiscovered Pluto at the time. But to
me, this country can have emotional biases that adversely affect
decisions as well as can be very suspicious,and distrustful of others
who they might not see as patriotic because they question the
government.
Ironically, USA was a country founded by people who rebelled against
the ruling British government. If anything, back in those days, they
could have been viewed as being unpatriotic or traitors to their
sovereign nations.
the same with Sun in Cancer square Saturn in Libra which doesn>t seem
like they truly cared about justice when they signed the document.
Justice was very limited...I would say. Of course,conflict with
authorities.
I would like to get some thoughts from others about this.
