HORARY QUESTION

By Laurie Naughtin www.sublunar.co.za

WHAT WILL HAPPEN TO THE IRAEL HOSTAGES?

During an interesting CAA meeting where sharing of knowledge over Israel and the Gaza Strip war was in process, this question by a very concerned colleague who was actually in Israel at the time was asked.

We agreed that I should do a horary chart to see the answer. This was a very difficult horary to do as there is so much pain involved in working on a question of this magnitude. The time we agreed to do the Horary was 11:09:58 on the 15th October 2023.

The person asking the question the querent is ruler of the 1st house, Saturn Rx and moving to his station, our querent feels powerless to act.

When we look at the shadow placement of Saturn, the antiscion, it is at 29 degrees 10 of Libra, the Moon ruler of the 7th house, the open enemy is partile conjunct Saturn,

This shows that our querent really hopes the enemy will return the prisoners, maybe a couple may be promised, but antiscia show a sense of hiddenness not a reality.

Let’s look at the enemy, as the querent is asking about an open enemy, Hamas, open enemies are given the 7th house. This house has Cancer on the cusp making the ruler the Moon Cancer.

On the cusp of the house there is a malefic fixed star Wasat, violent, destructive, poison, gas and death, this describes the enemy to a T. The Moon is Void of Course, which often shows that the way things are is the way they will stay. Not great testimony.

Prisoners belong to the 12th house, as these hostages are Hamas’s prisoners we need to derive or turn the chart. Counting the 7th house as the first, Hamas’s house of prison is the 6th house.

The 6th house ruler will be the hostages, as Gemini is on the cusp the Prisoners will be Mercury. They are in Hamas’s derived 4th house, the 10th. This shows that they are in the land of the enemy.

On the cusp of the 6th house is another malefic fixed star, Ensis, this shows injuries to the eyes and violent death. It is really horrible to see this.

A very bad omen is if a planet is combust the Sun, with 8.5 degrees. Mercury is faster than the Sun and is applying to partile conjunct the Sun. One of the sad testimonies for death is combustion of the Sun and that is where the hostages are heading, this is more negative testimony.

On the subject of death, the 8th house is ruler of death and transformation. In this case the 8th house is ruled by the Sun as Leo is on the cusp of this house. This is very uncomfortable seeing further negative testimony.

If we look to see if the hostages can come to their home the 4th house ruled by Mars, for this we need an aspect, and there are absolutely none.

The conclusion of this horary is that the hostages, sadly, will not be returned to Israel. My God have mercy on them, war is a terrible thing. I feel so sad…
