Hurricane Michael is bearing down on the panhandle of the state of Florida now - October 10 (mid morning). It is the strongest storm to hit the Florida panhandle ever. It has developed rapidly into a strong category 4 hurricane.
As is very often the case, when we have an extreme weather event that can affect large numbers of people over a large area, one or more eclipses is being stimulated by one or more planets. In the case of Hurricane Michael, transiting Mars is stimulating the January 31, 2018 lunar eclipse by opposition. This eclipse chart shows Neptune on the Ascendant. Transiting Venus is also activating this eclipse by square aspect, but clearly Mars is the more dangerous transit here. And, as the Moon moves toward a conjunction to Venus (in apparent retrograde) and a square to this eclipse point, the hurricane will move onshore. After it moves onshore, it will head toward Tallahassee - the largest and most populous city that the hurricane will hit in Florida. This makes the state chart and the city of Tallahassee chart important. Some of the things that I’ve been hearing about this storm is that it formed very quickly and that it’s moving very quickly. It also strengthened quite quickly. That is all consistent with the Mars archetype.
In the chart for the state of Florida, we find Saturn at 13 Aquarius. So, this event will affect commerce and business in the state significantly. As a strong category four hurricane, it could destroy numerous structures. That even includes some of those inland buildings in Tallahassee. Also, in Florida’s progressed chart, the IC (bottom of the chart) falls on 11 Aquarius.
In the state of Florida’s event chart, we find Neptune at 24 Aquarius. Transiting Jupiter is squaring the state’s Neptune (and Venus) right now. And, Jupiter is stimulating the February 10, 2017 lunar eclipse by square aspect. It is also squaring the February 15, 2018 solar eclipse in Aquarius. This would indicate the large storm surge that is expected as well as the flooding that occurs with these large storms. And, in Florida’s progressed chart, Mars joins Neptune at 24 Aquarius.
I don’t usually say too much about solar arc charts in these posts. But, in Florida’s solar arc chart, there is something quite interesting. In that chart we find Neptune at 12 Aquarius.
Transiting Mercury is now at 1 Scorpio, but it’s moving quite rapidly. It will soon stimulate the July 27, 2018 total lunar eclipse in Aquarius. With the high winds of the hurricane and the tornadoes that these systems often spawn, I would expect quite a bit of wind damage with this one.
The Sun is also stimulating the July 12, 2019 solar eclipse in Cancer by square aspect (in a few hours). This will affect Tallahassee since the city’s Uranus is at 19 Capricorn. In the Tallahassee chart, Mars squares this point and Tallahassee’s Uranus. The storm event could be experienced as somewhat violent. In the city’s chart, Mercury is at about 14 Capricorn. The solar eclipse of January 5, 2019 will hit this point. In the city’s progressed chart, Mercury is at 4 Leo. That point was eclipsed by the July 27, 2018 lunar eclipse (by opposition). In Tallahassee’s solar arc chart, Neptune is at 21 Cancer - very close to the point of the July 12, 2018 solar eclipse in Cancer.
This will be a major weather event. So, I hope folks have either evacuated or are safely hunkered down.
