The
Grand Cross, which the astrological community has been going on about
for a good while now, is almost upon us. This is a rare alignment of
four planets, Mars, Jupiter, Uranus, and Pluto, which are currently
aligning to form an almost exact cross in the sky between April 20 - 23.
The tolerances here are very tight, less than a degree from being a
perfect cross with exact 90 degree angles all around.
The Moon briefly joins the party for a few hours in the evening of Sunday, April 20th to kick things off.
Astrologers have blamed the recent Crimean, Ukrainian, and Bundy crises
upon this Grand Cross, but expect still larger fireworks to occur over
the next week.
Is there anything actionable in this
information for the average person? Yes. First responders and all
people who live or work in high-risk environments should be extra
vigilant in observing all safety standards during this period. Besides
that, the biggest takeaway is probably knowing that the real potential
for craziness and disorder is a short time window of just a few days. If
folks can manage to get through that period without over reacting or
causing any more trouble for themselves than they have to, that may be
about the most you can ask for.
