What's in the Water? Salmonella.

Lots of problems with Tap Water these days. First they we're drinking up each other's Drugs. Brings new meaning to the New Age idea of collective unconscious. It's just the water, same as the Romans. Now there's a report of a Salmonella outbreak in the Colorado town of Alamosa. Although they say this is rare, the news report also mentioned a huge outbreak in a "Southern California" town in 1965 where about 16,000 people were affected. Since I was quarantined for more than a month with Salmonella poisoning when I was a kid (in 1964, Southern California) I really wanted to look at these charts. The news says that the reasons for the outbreaks are due to using deep well water that's not chlorinated. So this problem is the exact opposite of the Drugs in the Tap Water where we're all being contaminated through a public system.

Here are the dates for the Salmonella Outbreaks:

Mar. 8, 2008 to Present
Alamosa, CO

May 1 - June 1,1965, Riverside California
16,000 cases, 3 deaths

I think that Uranus might be significant here as it is the Water Bearer. It rules the circulatory system of the body and perhaps represents in part the infrastructure which brings tap water to our houses. There seems to be a connection with squares from Uranus to Gemini & Sagittarius in the two outbreak charts. And Uranus was square my 15 Gemini Rising from the 4th house when I contracted Salmonella.

There also seems to be a problem with significant planets being unaspected. That would make sense as the water in a well can't flow anywhere. In the Alamosa, CO chart Mercury-Neptune-Chiron are unaspected in Aquarius. Uranus is unaspected in Pisces. In the Riverside, CA chart Jupiter in Gemini is unaspected. These dates are for the beginnings of the outbreaks, so maybe it's not that important.

Rulership for Chlorine is Neptune according to Rex Bills. Strong Virgo - Pisces emphasis shows public health concerns. Gemini could indicate communicable diseases (I've discusses that before in my paranoid hand washing posts).

In the Riverside Case, Uranus was conjunct Pluto and Mars and opposing Saturn and Chiron in Pisces at the outbreak. This was squaring the Gemini North Node.

In the Alamosa Case, Sun is conjunct Uranus and the North Node is in Aquarius conjunct Mercury, Venus, and Neptune in Aquarius. Chiron is also in Aquarius.

In my case, Uranus was conjunct Pluto in Virgo in my 4th House squaring my Gemini Ascendant conjunct my natal Venus-Pluto-Mars and opposing Saturn in Pisces.

The Eclipse activity may or may not be relevant.

Riverside, CA: Total Solar Eclipse:

May 30, 1965. NN 14 Gemini (H6) conjunct Sun-Moon at 10 Gemini (conjunct Jupiter Gemini). This is squared by Uranus. 25 Sagittarius Rising.

This was followed by a Partial Lunar Eclipse on June 14, 1965 that includes a Grand Square: Sun-NN Gemini opposite Moon SAgittarius squaring Saturn-Chiron Pisces opposite Mars in Virgo.

Alamosa, CO: Total Lunar Eclipse:

Feb. 21, 2008. Moon-Saturn in Virgo opposite Sun in Aquarius-NN in Pisces. 21 Sagittarius ASC squared by Uranus.

This was preceded by Solar Annular Eclipse on Feb. 7, 2008. 15 Sagittarius Rising. Sun-Moon 18 Aquarius.
