It looks as if the pandemic that we've been warned about for years is in progress. Of course something so important demands an astrological look what the cosmos was saying. The timing for the chart is based on the impression an intuitive friend provided, which correlates reasonably well with the official announcement, which can be found on the online timeline found here. This chart therefore is my opinion of the astrological signature of when the epidemic began.

The chart below clearly has indicators that point toward an epidemic/pandemic. It doesn't look that ominous until you break it down and see the many relevant aspects and house placements. This represents the energies that my intuitive friend picked up on that day as something significant on the way. The Moon is typically the final trigger for any significant event, whether personal or worldwide. I suspect that the actual start was when the Moon's square to Pluto was exact or at least partile, so I'll look at that chart also. But first, this one.

Corona Virus Chart

Since the Moon tends to be the trigger, I'll start with that. She is in the 8th house, which implies a deadly or transformational event. Libra is an Air Sign that tends toward fairness. This suggests this will not discriminate, but affect all equally. Considering that people in high stations have been infected, this seems to fit.

The Moon squaring malefics, Pluto and Saturn, is likewise apropos. Saturn is in dignity in Capricorn, the sign that reigns over governments and corporations as well as responsibility, tradition, karma, and hard times. This suggests it will place strain on these entities. Furthermore, Saturn is in the 11th house of groups, organizations, and networking. Remember that further down when I mention the World Health Organization (WHO) and Center for Disease Control (CDC). Pluto, ruler of the underworld, relates to power and control, hidden corruption, as well as the cleansing and/or purging of such, i.e. elimination in all its forms. That certainly fits as well. Pluto is in the 12th house of secrets and hidden enemies.

Note that Saturn and Pluto are conjunct, placing these two in cahoots by combining their energies. They are not only being set-off by the Moon, but being sextiled by Mars. Mars is in Scorpio, the sign that rules death and is its traditional ruler, making it the ruler of the 9th house which includes other cultures and international travel. These sextiles suggest how the disease will be spread. Mars also rules the 2nd house which includes finances and the physical body of individuals. Chiron, the asteroid known as the Wounded Healer, is conjunct the 2nd house cusp.

Neptune is the ruler of such things as viruses. He is in dignity in Pisces, the sign he rules. The trine between him and Mars also shows its transmission through international travel. The square from Mercury in the 11th house suggests communications, not only of the disease itself, but news pertaining to it through the media. Mercury is in Sagittarius, the sign that relates to the 9th house and therefore other cultures. The square implies this information will be inaccurate or withheld, which has been the case with China being very secretive about the true numbers of cases and fatalities, especially with Mercury in the 10th house which relates to things in the public view.

Jupiter, ruler of Sagittarius, is in the 11th house which includes groups, friends, associations, organizations, hopes, wishes, and goals. He is generally considered to be a benefic planet, but I have not found this to be true. Rather, I find  him to be more like Mercury and thus neutral, his function to exaggerate, inflate, or accelerate what he touches. Thus, his trine to Uranus, the planet of surprises, upsets, disruptions, and explosions, to name a few, suggests that this will be a big surprise that causes tremendous upsets. Uranus is in the 2nd house which includes finances and has certainly reflected in the stock market and other areas. Jupiter is somewhat restricted in Capricorn where he is in a condition known as Fall. This may be a good thing. If nothing else it shows the efforts of government leaders to control the outbreak, futile though they have proven to be, at least so far.

Organizations such as the World Health Organization (WHO) and the US-based Center for Disease Control (CDC) have certainly been questionable in their handling of this situation so far. For example, as I write this, the local news is that the CDC released someone from quarantine at Lackland Air Force Base in Texas who subsequently has tested positive. This implies they don't know enough about this virus yet to handle it properly. Furthermore, when the first evacuees from China arrived there for quarantine, they were greeted by CDC officials who were not wearing any sort of protective clothing,  much less masks and gloves. I hate to be blatantly critical, but seriously?

Venus, natural ruler of love and money, is squaring Uranus. Venus rules the 8th house of death and is in the 12th of secrets and hidden enemies. Normally Venus is considered friendly, but this implies it is merely a disguise.

The angles of the chart of course are time-dependent. Aquarius on the ascendant implies the event is a sign of the times. Gemini on the 4th, house of new beginnings and endings, implies much to be learned from this. Leo, the sign of royalty, on the 7th does hint at some people of high station being infected. It's ruled by the Sun in the 11th in Sagittarius. The Midheaven is in Sagittarius, again hinting at global news and affect, with its ruler, Jupiter, in the 11th.

Now let's take a look at a chart cast for slightly earlier in that same day when the Moon's square to Pluto is exact. At this time, the Moon is in the 10th house, which suggests that an event in full view of the world is being triggered. The Sun is barely rising, suggesting a new day, while the ascendant is anaretic at the 29th degree of Sagittarius. This implies an ending, perhaps of the idealistic view or optimism with regard to relationships between countries.

Now all those Capricorn planets giving energy to governments and corporation are in the 1st house. This implies that they are in control, if not the cause of this debacle. Uranus is in the 4th house of endings and new beginnings. It's interesting that Uranus is in Taurus, an Earth Sign, and that the virus is best transmitted on surfaces.

Mars in the 11th trining Neptune suggests the involvement of groups in its transmission and fits my comments relative to the competency of how this is being handled by WHO and the CDC. Conspiracy theorists can have all sorts of fun with this.

Speaking of which, here's a link to a well-documented article connecting the pandemic to the 5G rollout. I'm not even going to go there at this point, but for all we know, there could be a connection. After all, Uranus rules technology and that trouble maker planet is clearly all over this thing.

For maximum neutrality as far as the houses are concerned while keeping this date, here's the same chart in 0-Aries houses which are essentially the zodiacal "gold standard." While this system is often ignored or even denigrated, I have found it often has a story to tell itself.

It's particularly interesting that this places Chiron on the cusp of the 1st zodiacal house. I haven't said much about Chiron other than that he represents the "Wounded Healer" and implies injuries and disappointments. In Aries, it implies aggression. Now the Sagittarius Sun is conjunct the zodiacal Midheaven while Jupiter, Saturn and Pluto are in the 10th house of corporations and governments being in the limelight. Neptune, representing the virus itself, is appropriately placed in the 12th house of hidden enemies while Mars is in the 8th, an ominous placement in any chart.

Mercury in the 9th implies communications world-wide while Venus in the 11th house of groups squaring Uranus in the 2nd house of finances, comforts, and your physical body, again points toward mishandling of the situation which exacerbate what is already a hot mess.

Placement of the lunar nodes suggests times are changing with something new coming in and perhaps what's leaving is an undeserved, naive trust in other countries, especially those who have a 500 year plan to takeover the world.

No matter how you look at it, this is not a friendly chart and bears the imprint of the current state of the world. We can certainly hope it won't live out its full potential as a lethal pandemic but that is truly somewhat out of our hands. Nonetheless, it's advisable for everyone to take note of the personal precautions they should take to be sensible and not pain a target on themselves through ignoring it or being careless.

When will it end? I hardly dare guess, but the lunar eclipse coming on 6 June looks promising for at least slowing it down. I have to smile at that date being 6/6, though the eclipse occurs in China at 3:12:15 am. If it were 6 am, making it 6/6/6 I'd have more confidence in it. This blog would turn into to a book if I were to investigate all the possibilities, so that's enough for now. Depending on how things go, I'll post updates.

Meanwhile, do your best to stay safe.
