With the passing of the first man to step upon the moon's surface, it is
time to stop and pause, to think what that meant for mankind.
It was indeed a giant step as Neil Armstrong announced in the first TV
broadcast from another space body.
I remember the time, walking down the city streets at three in the
morning, there were numerous windows open out of which the progress of
the moon mission was being announced as I walked slowly home.
Curiosity to see man on the moon had me knocking on a door to catch the
actual moment of the moon walk as it arrived. Half the street seemed to
be up, even though it was now nearly 4am.
The man was happy to let me in to his home to take in the strangely
ethereal TV picture, it was as though it came from another dimension, we
watched, fellow human beings, united by a transmission from outer space.
For a brief moment the world came together. Aware of the planet we all
share.
It had been the same in India the previous winter, even in a small
Indian town they were aware of man circling the moon that Christmas Eve
as the preparations for the moon shot gathered pace with Apollo 8 going
right around the moon before return to earth.
New horizons and perceptions were opening up at a speed that has since
slowed, although this last month has seen the successful robot landing
on Mars and the first tantalizing pictures of a landscape that looks
almost familiar with layers of soil worn away as though we are looking
at the cliffs by an extinct sea.
The hunt for evidence of life outside of our planet gathers pace.
With some 200 billion stars in our galaxy, and if even only 1 in a
million of them has planets similar to earth in proximity to its star,
that still leaves 200,000 candidates for possible civilizations
in our own galaxy. And there are likely to be some 200 billion galaxies
in the universe.
It is estimated that our galaxy has been in existence for 12 billion
years, so our 4.5 billion years as a separate planet puts us among the
youngsters in the galactic federation, we may be viewed as
too early in our development for contact.
I have just put the kozmik horoscope for Neil Armstrong on the website
at
http://www.kozmikhoroscopes.com/armstrong.htm
and this hints at the awesome discoveries to come in future space
exploration.
I found some fascinating insights in his chart about how he was destined
to become a swashbuckling pioneer.
His moon is exactly conjunct the Galactic Center in his chart, no wonder
he was selected to open up our eyes to new vistas and awareness of where
we are located in the universe.
His sun is exactly on the spiritual point of his chart, the cusp of the
fourth house, indicating that as well as becoming an American hero, he
would be a pathfinder for all mankind in discovering who we are and
where we fit into the cosmic scheme of things.
Neil Armstrong was a former fighter pilot and test pilot before he
joined NASA's space program and this shows up in a dynamic, enterprising
and practically resourceful Mars in the first house of his birth chart.
This first house is called the Ascendant in astrological terms,it
describes the part of the universe coming up over the horizon at the
time of birth. It influences the physical body, the outlook, the fated
events that will affect how you interact with people and events in your
lifetime. With his Mars here, Neil Armstrong was always going to be a
pioneer.
But I had to use my special technique for drawing even more information
out of a birth chart by looking at the influences in the parts where no
planets are located in the houses in order to fully discover Neil
Armstrong's connection with pioneering space travel.
His Uranus is in the 11th house ruling associations and friendships,
ideals and the future, he himself said he was merely the tip of a
400,000 strong collaboration between scientists and technologists, and
this scientific association is spelt out clearly by the planet being
found here.
However, Uranus is also close to the mysterious 12th house of mysteries
and the unknown laws of the universe, in addition it rules the 10th
house of career, and it is Uranus which rules both flight and space
travel.
Only by taking all these influences into account is it possible to see
how his career would develop into that of a pioneering space traveller,
but it is certainly there in the chart once you know how to read it.
If you have not yet had a kozmik horoscope reading, you can ask for a
super deluxe reading that explores all the houses of your chart,
including those where there is no planet present, in order to discover
all the potential in your chart.
Simply go to the order page at
http://www.kozmikhoroscopes.com/ccorder.htm
and select super deluxe reading.
It could well be an illumination to discover unknown potentials hidden
away in your birth chart, because all your destiny is written down there
from the time you first drew breath on planet earth.
At the passing of Neil Armstrong we salute an American hero and a
pathfinder for all mankind on our journey to the stars.
Speak to you next month,
