Message In A Bottle From Auschwitz

According to an article I found on a website called "Sky News" construction workers found a bottle with a message written in it by 7 prisoners at the Auschwitz Concentration Camp. The prisoners were being forced to reinforce a cellar with concrete at a local school in order to make a bomb shelter. The Prisoners were French and Polish and were between the ages of 18 and 20. Two are known to have survived the camps.

So, when humanity has completely failed you, what's a good date for leaving a note that will be unearthed in the future?

The note was dated Sept. 9, 1944 Auschwitz, (Oswiecim) Poland.

Sun 17 Virgo; Moon 16 Gemini; NN 25 Cancer

The Sun and the Moon here are ruled by memo making Mercury. The Sun is conjunct a Mercury Rx and Jupiter which extends its communication abilities. The Moon is conjunct Uranus in Gemini which pretty much does the same thing. So this chart so far is perfect for anything having to do with communicating.

Cancer is one of the key rulers for Memory (long term memory) so I suppose a Cancer North Node shows the aptitude for a long term memory. Saturn was at 10 Cancer which is suppose reinforces the need to not be forgotten, or for placing your memory in a bottle in concrete.

Pluto in this chart is extra strong as it is a Singleton in every way that a planet can be a singleton. I've never noticed this before in any chart that I've looked at before. The 10 Leo Pluto is a singleton in Fire, Fixed Signs, and Cadent Houses. Pluto rules determination and durability.

The chart shape is exceptional in that it is a Bundle Figure held between a trine between Mars in Libra and Uranus in14 Gemini. I call that the Bunker Busting aspect because of its ability to unleash huge amounts of power in spurts. Interesting that the message was buried in a bomb shelter. Air is a mental influence and, as we saw in the Air Sun and Moon of this chart, Mars and Uranus are also figuring strongly in Air influence.

Also interesting is that Saturn rules construction and concrete. Transiting Saturn (currently 17 Virgo) has been passing over the Virgo Sun of this event chart (17 Virgo). Compounding its influence is Solar Arc Saturn which is close to the same degree as well (14 Virgo) .

There are some significant other outer planet transits as well, but I'll stop here due to time constraints.

Progressed Mercury is currently at 4 Sagittarius. Prog. Mercury stationed direct around 1952. Of course, I don't have a clue if that's significant in any way to anything pertaining to the bottle or its writers.

Comet -- Great post. Interesting that Saturn is at 17 Virgo now, on the Sun of the chart for the message in a bottle.
I also saw that Elsa picked up your latest earthquake post for AstroDispatch. Congrats!
P.S. Sky News is Britain's answer to Fox News. Both are media outlets controlled by Rupert Murdoch. Best, Monica

Hi Monica, thanks for stopping by.

Yeah, nothing like pulling stuff out of concrete rubble while Saturn is on your Sun!

Thanks for the info about Elsa and Sky News. Hopefully Elsa won't be picked up by Rupert Murdoch (tee hee). Or, hey, if he pays well, why not? Maybe she can do some transformations!
