Mount Soputan Eruption | 03 10 2018
On October 3rd, 2018 at 08:47 AM local time Mount Soputan erupted in northern region of Sulawesi Island in the Ring of Fire country of Indonesia. The volcano is one of the youngest, however, the most active of volcanic peaks out of the 400+ known summits in the country. There have been 39 confirmed eruptions of Mount Soputan in the last 600 years.
What makes this eruption similar to the last two of January 04, 2016 and January 06, 2015 is the Sun and Saturn influence of the event. Saturn, the third largest planet in the solar system is the ruler of Capricorn and the co-ruler of Libra. When the Sun passes over these signs it influences the attributes of the elements govern by these angles of the zodiac. The dates are numerically only degrees apart; 03/10/18, 04/01/16, 06/01/18.
The eruption of the volcano is only days after the 7.5 earthquake, and 3 meter tsunami that has left the central part of Sulawesi Island in disruption and despair just days earlier. Even though seismologists cannot connect the two events. Astronomically the dates are under the same trends of planetary influence.
The planetary events listed below are from the event chart casted for the closest city of Manado, only 56 kms from Mount Soputan. Even though the chart is not casted for the exact location the accuracy of charted planetary influence will be the same.
Event A,
On the eastern horizon or ascendant we find Scorpio at 29.55 degrees with this rising degree we will observe the planets Mars, Jupiter and Pluto. Scorpio is both ruled by Mars and Pluto. However, with the rising degree only a few minutes from Sagittarius the influence of Jupiter will be exalted in this chart. Jupiter rules the abundance of force that forces gases and ash to travel great distance from the mount.
1) Jupiter is found in the 12th house a 30 degree slice of the zodiac that is co-ruled by Jupiter and Neptune. The planet Jupiter makes aspects to both Neptune, and the Moon. The result is a Grand Trine of the water signs. Jupiter also makes aspects to Pluto and Mercury.
Event B,
Saturn is the ruler of many aspects of the Volcano activity and most importantly the Ash it produces. This eruption produced a cloud pillar of ash 3 times taller than the last eruption in 2016.
1) Saturn makes direct contact to Mars, Uranus, and the Sun. The angles to Uranus and Mars are soft but hard with the Sun. Saturn is at home in Capricorn, and the Sun is transiting Libra which is co-ruled by Saturn. To understand Saturn’s relationship to Libra is Venus rules the fruit and Saturn rules the scale that gauges the value of the fruit at harvest time.
Event C,
Pluto in Capricorn makes four angles of influence and even though the heavenly body was downgraded as a dwarf planet it remains a player in this chart with angles to 5 planets; Neptune, Moon, Sun, Mercury, and Jupiter. A exact opposition to the Moon in Cancer makes this planet of regeneration a important player in this eruption.
Event D,
Mars in Aquarius. The fire element of Mars traveling through the air sign Aquarius which is ruled by Uranus is a busy planet with hard angles to a retrograde Uranus and Venus in Scorpio. The planet also is making a soft angle to the Sun in Scorpio, and Earth in Aries - a fire element sign.
Event E,
Neptune retrograde in Pisces. Neptune is the planet that rules many elements of volcanoes such as the liquid molten rock, gases, the poisons and toxic vapor in the ash clouds. The nebulous planet is busy with angles to five planets; Moon, Mercury, Venus, Jupiter, and Pluto.
Conclusion.
While the Sun is progressing through an air element of the zodiac, and the Earth moving through a fire element, the Ring of Fire is being churned by so many planets opposing the Earth. Most importantly, we must note that the Earth, and Sun will be in direct alignment with the planet Uranus in Taurus in a couple of weeks. Most seismic activity on the planet is directly linked to when Mars is forming a tight square to Uranus making these days of the Sun in Libra, and Earth in Aries the sign ruled by Mars ones to observe.
