Bloggen startade i mars 2009 med försök att få astrologin att svara på kvantitativa studier. Det närmandet byggde på felaktiga antaganden om vad ämnet handlar om och gradvis har kopplingarna till klassisk väst- och östfilosofi smugit sig in. Samlingssida från tidiga bloggens horisont:
T E M A S T U D I E R - svarar astrologin på kvantitativa tester?

Herakleitos (c 500 fvt): "De som talar med förstånd förlitar sig på det universella, som en stad måste lita till sin lag, och med än mer tillit. Ty alla mänskliga lagar närs av en gudomlig lag, och den har så mycket kraft som den önskar och är tillräcklig för alla och fler därutöver."

Chu Hsi (Zhu Xi), idealistisk filosof, 1100-talet: "Ödet, det är vad som återstår sedan människan gjort sitt yttersta."

Konfucius, kinesisk samhällsfilosof, 500-talet fvt: "Den ädla människan sysselsätter sig med tankar om dygd, den ringa människan sysselsätter sig med tankar om sin egen vinning."
Västerlandets store logiker & mystiker Platon ventilerade ofta orfisk-indiska tankegångar om reinkarnationen och själens rörelse mellan världarna... "Sokrates: Vem än som anländer oinvigd och ofullbordad i Helvetet kommer att ligga i leran. Men de renade och fullbordade kommer att vistas med gudarna." (Faidon, 69c)

JORDELEMENTETS VÄG (karma yoga):
"Eftersom vår identitet med den gudomliga kraften ytterst är obestridlig, (låt oss ha) en fast tro att vi genom att framhärda i vårt utmönstrande oss efter gudens form, tal och stämning, våra handlingar i tiden blir signifikanta och gudens essens slutligen förverkligas av oss."
(Günther - Buddhist Philosophy in Theory and Practice)

Fr.om. nyår 2023 separerades "Sveriges transiter" som ny tagg från den äldre "transiter" som vid 400+ blivit ett oöverskådligt myller.

The Stockholm Riots and the Accountability of the Head of State

From ancient times when wise thinkers shaped mankind's then current and future civilizations from concerned observations of the stars, formulating the original concept of Natural Law, the King or Head of State has been held to be personally responsible for the state of a country.

Chinese civilization even admitted the necessity of bloody revolution if the ruler had deserted Heaven's injunction to, to quote Babylonian law, care for the poor, widows and orphans. 

In Sweden, the right-wing Prime Minister Fredrik Reinfeldt has done none of what is asked of a benign King. Instead he has impoverished the country's poor and needy further by using a patently false rhetoric fooling the selfish middle-class that they have much to gain from falling in with the Reinfeldt's own crypto-racist attitudes concerning "the unproblematic ethnic Swedes." 

See also, in Swedish, the spokesperson for the Social Democratic Youth League, reaching the same conclusion from grim statistics showing 90% of the well-to-do inner city kids complete school, while only 50% of the suburban kids manage to get themselves even a basic education.

Now Stockholm's suburbs have seen four unruly nights in a row, and it is surely illuminating to use the astrological method of the wise men of Babylonia to highlight the personal accountability of the Swedish Prime Minister. As virtually nothing is know about the tenets of ancient Babylonian astrology prior to its absorption by the Indians and the Hellenistic Greeks, this blog uses a most important discovery: the necessity of using the sidereal zodiac, which counterbalances the precession of the spring equinox in order to keep the heavenly zodiac still and true to the original conceptions.

The blog has shown that the "fallen Moon" in Scorpio is indeed still associated with death in our age. Testing 161 horoscopes for murderers showed a significant overrepresentation of Moon in Scorpio. This pressures Western astrologers to explain how the same birth dates meaning Moon in Sagittarius to them could ever be associated with themes like "death" or "murder". Sagittarius is ruled by the Great Benefactor Jupiter and is traditionally associated with all things good and desirable, not a sociopathic, poisoned and murderous mind! (Moon = the mind)

This blog also uses a subset of Hindu astrological tenets which its writer has found suggestive during four trial years, the most important of which is that regarding the efficient nature of planet, which may change from its essential nature as a natural benefic or malefic depending on which houses it rules (which accidental ownership in turn depends on the zodiac sign rising in the east at birth).

Let us superimpose the chart for the police alert that a riot was building in a Stockholm suburb on that of the Prime Minister and see in what way he is implicated in the event. Anyone with some experience of astrology knows the planetary transits seldom fail to highlight a weak spot in the horoscope of the person most affected by the terrestrial event.
See this brief background to the deterioration of Sweden under the sway of Fredrik Reinfeldt's evilly banal right-wing political philosophy giving free reins to Big Finance by weakening the State - which used to keep rampant greed in check - while at the same time bribing the middle-class by decreased taxation (funded with money stolen from the country's poor and unemployed). It just so happens that the initial riot in a suburb starts just as transiting Sun moves over a particularly problematic spot in the national chart.



Just a few more preliminaries before I'll cut to the chase. The Prime Minister was born under the sign of self-service, Virgo, since time immemorial associated with agriculture, man's ingenious way of maximizing the profit of the invested labour. By quantitative tests this blog has confirmed the individualistic and almost anti-social stance of this archetype, first principle or Platonic form or idea. 


As a Moon sign, Virgo prides itself of overrepresentation in the horoscopes for convicted criminals and as a Sun sign it likewise stood out as the sign of the Playmate when investigating every single one during the first 25 years of this phenomenon. This means that the Maiden is most eager to make a profit, not even minding using her undressed body as a tool or a means to the desired end. This finding would give as a hint as to the Prime Minister's mentality.

The blog thus has revealed what Western astrology no longer can discern: that the Maiden, far from being an innocent and pure being, actually represents the potential archetypal Whore, selling her soul in order to gain the material world. The Whore and the Madonna thus turns out to correspond to the opposite signs Virgo and Pisces respectively, and one is immediately reminded of the Bible story where a fallen woman washes Jesus' feet - Pisces is traditionally associated with water and the feet. Do note Venus' "fall" in Virgo and her "exaltation" in Pisces!

The zodiac appears to teach anti-materialism by design, reminding the fallen soul to cleanse itself from egotism and the world's pollution. Hindu astrology places the ultimate liberation from earth(l)y stain in the Piscean twelfth house of moskha

Hellenistic astrology called this the temple of the evil demon, which does not at all contradict the Hindu meaning. Virgo's (or the Playmate's) hankering for riches has now so corrupted the soul that liberation becomes mandatory! The evil daimon might the lord of this world with all its promises of material good. I am referring to Pan, god of the fauna and vegetal growth and lust too.

In some cultures Pan is referred to as the Devil. The Jews read Satan himself into that certain star the Arabs, receiving this tradition, came to call al-Ghul or Algol, the demon. This blog has performed initial studies of this fixed star, and it does appear to corrupt whatever it touches, not only by conjunction but opposition too. Possibly the most generic description of the star Algol's activity is 100% Negativity - close indeed to Satan as Gods helper, when the mission to negate or contradict the soul in order to test it. Perversion or corruption to force the living being to a higher state of awareness of the Divine workings.

Now, Virgo rising really emphasizes a person's self-absorption since the first temple is the place where heaven and earth intersect and produce the newborn person and it's "me" or ego. According to astrology Mars is a natural evil doer (planet or war and accidents and divisiveness). Unfortunately, in the case of the Prime Minister, this his Mars also turns into an efficient evil doer when Virgo rises. One is immediately reminded of the agricultural goddess Persephone's rape at the hand of Hades, god of the Underworld. 

This is thus a seriously damaged subtype of the sign of principle Virgo. It may even indicate that the Prime Minister harbors self-hate which he has projected upon the poor and the needy since they are his "accident"  - Mars - in terms of ability to amass profit or "carry their own cost" as the frighteningly crass mindset of "economists" puts it.

It is to be noted that in Hellenistic astrology the sixth temple is the first one below the Eastern horizon, thus signifying the Sun's daily death and entry into the Underworld. Interestingly, the previous Earth sign Taurus ALSO denotes the Underworld and it corresponding second house was anciently called Hades' portal. Perhaps in the Sun's daily round this is its exit from the house of the dead, as the Sun next appears in the first temple (housing the ascending degree or ascendant) and there represents the reincarnated soul.

When a personality or Ego this damages rears its ugly head, this blog has taken as a habit to closely investigate the ninth house, which Hindu astrology terms "the best house" because of its close tie with Jupiter, the Great Benefactor (or the Good King as per Hammurabi's Law). 

For the reflective and philosophical mind, it can hardly come as a surprise that the self-serving sign of Virgo is not well served by the planet of universal prosperity - Jupiter or Zeus desire to benefit all, world-wide (see the endless list of children Zeus fathers). Virgo combined with the house of Ego makes for an individuality that would try to keep all this wealth for himself, and although Jupiter is in essence a good planet, for Virgo it shape shifts and become an efficient agent for evil. 

One may also say that the atomistic and hair-splitting tendencies of the intellectual/Mercurial Virgo is ill-served by the tremendous expansivness Jupiter provides - in fact the Prime Minister patently refuses to see any patterns whatsoever and refers to everything untoward as "isolated incidents"!

(An excellent political comment in Sweden's largest newspaper from Eva Franchell - sorry, Swedish only - likewise notices the failure of the right-wing government to apprehend wholes. To Reinfeldt's party, which totally dominates the government, there are no problems with Stockholm - only with certain suburbs. The inner city elite will never voluntarily take responsibility for the consequences of their self-centered lifestyle!)

En evil Jupiter rarely means the planet turns into a murderer (like the Prime Ministers doubly evil Mars rising in his first house - THAT is the sign of a born evil doer). Rather, Jupiter starts misbehaving and exhibits all its bad sides. It becomes a selfish glutton instead of acting as a global source of prosperity, it comes to like easy money, it turns superficial and hypocritical. 

Jupiter's freedom becomes an inability to contains problematic situations and the Swedish Prime Minister is notoriously slow in reacting to emergencies. When he finally speaks up, it's just PK nonsense coming out of his mouth. His coping abilities proved to be so weak that he soon was provided with speech writers and nowadays refuses to appear without prior preparation. A bad Jupiter is just an overblown gassy bubble ready to burst!

Now let's close this text by returning to the first night of rioting. Notice how Prime Minister Reinfeldt's natal - and evil - Jupiter occupies his most important house, the ninth temple of true conscience, religion and philosophy. Do note the sign and its element! Here's your typical Devil worshipper: an inflated ideal that money is the highest good in this world and actually this politician's substitute for religion and true thinking. 

As Jupiter also rules religion and philosophy this placement simply declares his philosophy to be an especially evil variant of Taurean fixity and hunger for owning "stuff"... Is it even possibly to be born under an uglier heaven than this, with the hateful Mars rising and a corrupt Jupiter stressing one's deeply disturbed connection to God? (In Hellenistic astrology the ninth house of Jupiter was termed the Temple of God.)

The Swedes voted the lowest dregs of mankind into power and now, with riots resulting after seven years of mismanagement of the country's social dimension, they still refuse to understand what is now happening in Sweden. It seems very significant that Prime Minister Reinfeldt's corrupt Jupiter is shown to him via the riots the very year the planet returns to its natal sign AND the very same year when Saturn, the planet of "karma to harvest," strangles the mind (Moon) of the Head of State, and does so in a perverted way through the agency of the "zoom tool" Rahu, Hindu astrology's demon of greed know in the West as the Dragon's Head.

As for the Moon in late Leo the night of the first report of riots, this sits in the Prime Ministers house of material losses, and Moon in Leo thus disposed of by the Sun transiting Taurus thus directly activates the politician's perverted conscience. All this guy can take in is that cars are burning and stuff is damaged! He simply cannot grasp the real significance of the event and how it is simply the Shadow of his own evil nature and the resultant ideology of evil, that there OUGHT to be poor people so that the laboring busybodies all the clearer may discern what good and decent citiziens they are! We are talking hypocrisy of the worst buorgeois kind.

Sweden must be the house God forgot so that Satan eagerly jumped in.

The Stockholm suburb riots for dummies (sidereal astrology)

[An expanded and rewritten version of the previously published Swedish blog entry "Husbyupproret för dummies."]

In the face of the riots in the long-neglected and racially discriminated against Stockholm suburbs, the egotistic Swedish middle class may indignantly preach about moral and individual responsibility. They may glance at the below astrological chart based on the original Babylonian zodiac (to this day in use in India because of its astronomical soundness). 

But they will not awake from their bourgeois balloon of air in which they cower. They cannot cope the with the simple truth that seven years ago they all voted for Fredrik Reinfeldt, Anders Borg and others of that ilk - the right wing Moderaterna paid for by secret Big Finance companies, a party that pandered to the typical Swede's notorious materialistic and short-sighted mentality by posing as "the new labour party" and promising more money in the wallet. 

This party only gradually revealed that Sweden's poverty-stricken, unemployed and sick people were to fund the already well-to-do middle class by a political programme not at all dissimilar to Adolf Hitler's World War II labour camps. In today's Sweden unemployed people are forced to work at the poverty line for companies with no future promise at all since this crypto fascist party does not believe in investing in proved "inferiors'" education. 

People undergoing radiation treatment for Cancer are forced to continue look for job opportunities, no longer allowed time to recuperate! The Swede's invited monsters to manage their affairs in this so-called representative democracy - which everyone knows is manipulated by Big Finance due to the country's lack of legislation against corrupting lobbyism. In Sweden you can actually buy your business a legislation friendly to it!

This right wing government has turned Sweden's historical pride on its head: the well-fare state, with relatively high taxes used to ensure a decent living standard for all its citizens. (The system actually worked!) Yours truly once was down and out but with social democrats in office received a government-funded halv year long computer course which eventually led to work for Sweden's then fourth biggest IT company. THIS government rather wants to turn Sweden into a low-wage third world nation by refusing to invest in its population.

The disaster wrought upon the country after seven years of this market liberal right wing rule has now led to the first, but certainly not the last, of riots in the most neglected areas. Prime Minister Reinfeldt's arrogant answer to those suffering from Moderaterna's tearing down of the national health insurance system was: "They have to solve that [financial] problem the best they can, maybe live off relatives or friends". 

Meanwhile the government's spin doctors busy themselves spreading false propaganda internationally that they DO represent the famous Swedish (welfare) model; only they have deviously changed the phrase to the Nordic model, thus benefitting from the good Swedish reputation the Social Democrats created but filling the term with an opposite content! 

The Prime Minister's eldest sun is presently a trainee at a PR bureau, which would indicate something of the way these politicians are willing to create lies and smoke screens to trick the people, and a few years ago the Prime Minister took the unprecedented step of creating a new function - a Minister of Propaganda (think Goebbels) with the sole purpose of using the tax payer's money to brain wash them that the selfish right-way thinking was the right and proper ordering of a society!)

These "moderates" also rule the capital of Sweden, and their lack of honesty and even grasp of reality is reflected in the flags outside the municipal building in Stockholm, which proudly boast: "Stockholm, Capital of Scandinavia"! Most certainly not! There is no such thing - except in these politician's megalomaniac dreams!

1st temple: The Ego
2nd temple: Money; Hades' portal
6th temple: Slavery; Enmity; Misfortune
7th temple: The Social Contract (Fair Play!)
- the latter house visited by Saturn, meting out
stern justice (a society's karmic debt to its citizens?)

Said ancient political philosopher Confucius: "If I show my students one corner and they don't figure out the other three for themselves, I will say no more."

*****

Ancient China actually held that a ruler who obviously no longer served the public necessitated a revolutionary uprising on the part of the people. Divine Heaven had removed its mandate from this particular ruler (and his politics) but still needed the human agent in order to fulfill destiny. How else would the Emperor be brought to realization of the crimes he had committed towards his people?

See the Confucian Classic Jijing or I Ching, Book of Changes, chapter 49 on what constitutes a legitimate uprising/revolution. And Confucius certainly was not a rabble rouser but rather a conservative type! Still, he demanded the music be emphasized in school as the human soul needed purification. Not even this is grasped by Sweden's right wing government who mercilessly has cut down on the State's expenses - again striking a terrible and ominous blow to the already disadvantaged immigrant minorities in Stockholm's suburbs. 

The Prime Minister disparagingly calls the riot makers "angry young men", of course not unaware that his own segregationist stance is the cause of all the trouble. One may predict that the downtrodden will swarm like locusts over the well-to-do sunny areas of Stockholm and pester them and remind the inhabitants that apartheid in Sweden cannot be tolerated at this stage in history.

Apartheid? Yes, the Prime Minister's home municipality, Täby, has performed an ethical cleansing of sorts but by economical means. You are no longer allowed to live there if you cannot BUY and OWN your own apartment. By this devilishly ingenious practice they have created an image in reverse of a Nazi Jewish ghetto - only "Moderaterna" are barricading themselves in secluded areas and holding those at a long distance who have suffered from this egotistical and deeply unfair politics. 

See, in Swedish only, a Professor of Pedagogy describe the other side of the coin: the horribly segregated big Swedish cities Stockholm and Gothenburg and segregation's destructive effect on the inhabitants who cannot afford Täby or other expressions of the proverbial sunny side of the street.

*****

Then what of the horoscope? This natural zodiac where Aries corresponds to the first house or temple denoting the ego, Taurus to the second house of personal resources (money, and the urge to owning stuff in general) has here been spiced up with some of the ancient meanings to be found in Ptolemy's Tetrabiblos (2nd century) and in Hindu astrology.

The problem areas in this chart for the second night of the riots (identical to a chart for the first night) are obvious enough.

There is an alarming unrest in the area where Ego turns to the urge to own money and the ancient evil star Algol (the Jews called it Satan's head) is well-placed in the beginning of Taurus, sign of identification with material goods.

The ancients all agree that the next Earth sign is even worse: from simply sitting down on a piece of land and claiming ownership, Virgo now invents farming in order to increase the material profit of its own labour manifold. Hindu astrology now rises an alert and dubs the corresponding sixth house a temple of enmity. 

Indeed, Moderaterna's party horoscope shows an ugly example of an unredeemed Virgo's self-interest! The Prime Minister, too, has sidereal Virgo rising and the evil and (in Virgo) discriminating Mars for an ugly personality who truly wants to increase the class differences and then separate the rich from the poor. South-Africa all over again, but now in Sweden!

A conspicuous trouble area in the
Swedish national chart

And nobody should be surprised that the riot erupts just as the Sun passes over the worst spot in the Swedish national chart, where this people's most ego centered feeling nature (Moon in Aries) is owned by an awfully ethnocentric Mars stuck in Taurus' provincial way of thinking about itself and foreigners. And far away, in the Eighth Heaven (Ouranos), Satan's star casts corruption into this vegetative soul of the Swedes. We have had it coming for quite a while and now the just desert for our bigotted ways and failure to open up to the world is visited upon us.
