did a collective midpoint for the event's planets in Sag (Mars, Venus,
Mercury, Pluto - it came out at 11Sag15; here are the fixed stars in
that area (Ophiuchus is a shaman associated with healer-god Aesculapius;
he is shown stepping on the Scorpion-of-Death):

- Royal Star: Watcher, or Guardian, of the West
Red Supergiant
- Lunar Mansions: China: Sin, The Heart (of the Great Azure
Dragon), determinant star of the Eastern Palace of Spring, as in the
West, associated with royalty and with Mars, also called
- Ta-Ho, The Great Fire and Ming-Tang, The Temple of Light; at its
heliacal rising a ceremony of renewal of fire, representing the
heat of the Sun, was performed; sacrifices were offered to encourage the
fertility of nature and of the royal family. Chinese astrologers
considered this asterism the symbol of the Son of Heaven, because
man was the heart of heaven and earth, therefore the Son of Heaven was
Master of Man. India the same stars formed Jyestha, 'The Eldest,'
eldest of the Moon God's Queens with the
highest political and spiritual power among them, even if
superseded by younger wives; indeed, Antares is directly opposite
Aldebaran, representing Rohini, the favorite wife; Jyestha's ruler is
Indra, King of the Gods, connected with sky and rain, who rides
into battle against enemies of the Gods riding his mighty elephant,
wielding a thunderbolt - the rainbow is his bow. Jyestha represents that
which is senior in every sense (the oldest, most powerful, the
eldest brother), and praise; symbol: a circular talisman or earring;
Arabia: Alpha Scorpii was the determinant of al-Kalb al-Akrab, the

Under mundane, I have:
Keynote events in human history: the founding of cities, nations,
empires, and "famous firsts;" wars and great battles, nuclear
events and disasters; fires (in ancient China, Antares was called the
Great Fire); earthquakes, storms (extreme barometric lows), air and
shipwrecks, fog, smog, pollution, epidemics (including smallpox), mass
deaths; extremism, terrorism, murder, execution, assassinations,
attacks. Prominent or angular at an eclipse or ingress, a warning of
crises, dangers and fatalities, issues of national sovereignty.
Earth upheaval section: Antares arouses the great fires beneath the
earth: this was Neptune at a September, 1811 Solar Ecl that preceded the
massive New Madrid, MO December to February earthquake series of
1811-12, and the Moon and Neptune at the Libra Ingress 6 days later;
Venus was here at the 7.1 San Francisco quake of 1989 and at the 7.2
Kobe, Japan quake of 1995 that killed more than 5,000 and left 300,000
homeless; this was Mars when Surtsey, a new volcanic island, appeared
off Iceland in 1963, Saturn at the great Port Royal, Jamaica earthquake
of 1692 when huge earth fissures "swallowed multitudes" and
seismic sea waves submerged most of the lower city in 3-4 fathoms of
water, killing or drowning about 1,600, Uranus at the stupendous
eruption of Tambora in 1815, Neptune at the 1976 8.0 Tang Shan quake in
China that killed about 1/4 million people, the Asc of the terrible 7.5
Messina/Calabria quake, tsunami and fire of 1908: 160,000 dead,
devastating damage, great art and architectural treasures lost.
Earthquake expert Charles Richter, creator of the Richter Scale, had
Jupiter here.
Interesting that the Moon was at Betelgeuze, determinant star of the
lunar mansion Ardra, "The Moist One":

Lunar Mansions: Sumer-Akkad (Tablet of the 30 Stars): part of
Kakkab Lugal, The Mighty Man; China: part of Tsan, The Supreme
Commander (see Rigel, 163; this star presided over a wing of the army.
India: the determinant star of Ardra, "The Moist One,"
usually depicted as a teardrop (there are variant symbols); ruled
originally by Vedic storm-god Rudra, "the Howler," "the
One who Weeps," a fierce red form of Siva, presiding over
destruction, procreation, transformation; Ardra is "moist"
with emotion and sexual passion, and is the mansion of the Sun's
rays, heat, and their oppressiveness in a hot climate. Eta Leporis

mundane section:
Drowning, air crashes, shipwrecks, storms, lightning strikes,
meteorite falls, onslaughts causing failures and collapses; events that
shock, stagger, surprise, transform: massacres, eruptions, evacuations,
dispersions; great historical battles, events; unlucky for launches,
maiden voyages and first flights.
This was Jupiter of the notorious 79 AD eruption of Vesuvius that buried
Pompeii and Herculaneum, and at the last and strongest (est. 8.7 Richter)
of the 1811-12 New Madrid, MO quakes, "most violent and prolonged
series of earthquakes in US history;" it was Neptune of the violent
eruption of Mt Pelee in 1902 that killed the entire population of
Martinique and even wrecked ships anchored well offshore.
