'Black Tuesday' Oct 29, 1929 marks the massive stock market crash and this is the horoscope for Sun-to-Midheaven on that day.
Appropriately enough, the Sabian Symbol for the Sun/Midheaven degree, '6 Scorpio' is: "A Gold Rush."
We can be certain - just as in 2007/08, that the folks with 'real money' did not and are not losing their shirts, and to my way of thinking, are behind the shell games they play with other people's lives and fortunes.
That other forces are in league with - and opposing - them complicates the picture but suffice it to say, it's not you, me, the baker, or candlestick maker who are at fault. It's the 'experts.'
Some interesting midpoint pictures are repeating now in 2008 and I've marked them on the chart (click to enlarge):
Chiron and North Node (the public; the path or destiny) are conjunct then as of late (but in AQ) and the midpoint of Jupiter/Uranus is upon them.
Who are the Jupiter/Uranus crowd? Fortune-hunters; adventurers; inventors; organizers (Ebertin.)
Another interesting correlation between the meltdown of 1929 and today is that moneybags Jupiter (15Gem26 and Rx here) has two midpoints of power and wealth upon him - Pluto/NN and Pluto/Chiron.
Pluto/NN represents large masses of people and their common destiny; large business concerns; mass meetings; and exercising influence upon the public. I would add, powerful connections and associations.
Transit Jupiter will 'catch up' with Pluto/NN in Dec 2008, so we have then as now...
Pluto/NN = Jupiter: the desire to obtain position and power by force through the help of other people; the attainment of great gains through others; forcing oneself into a power position; self-promotion; attaining success through others (November elections esp the presidential election?)
And you know the Pluto/Chiron midpoint signifies plutocracy, oppression; corporatism; fascism, racism, primal violence, etc.
Time grows short and I must mosey...hope to complete this post later on...

March 28, 2021: A question left by "Unknown" won't be published (without a name) but her/his Q relates to today's position of Chiron @8Ari48 conjunct Sun 8Ari06 conjunct Venus 8Ari41 - a trio which conjuncts the October 29, 1929 position of erratic Uranus in the above horoscope (and Not conjunct 1929 Chiron @12Taurus conjunct NN!).
Today's spotlighted trio is an obvious cosmic emphasis on the Sabian Symbols involved, primarily the rounded-up degree of "9Aries" = "A Crystal Gazer" - ACUTENESS (Jones). Also interesting is that the conjunction of the trio occurs today, Palm Sunday 2021. For more info of an unconscious nature check out the Illumination Point opposite the trio's degree: "9Libra" = "Three Old Masters Hanging in an Art Gallery" - ACCORD which advises us against "idle worship of tradition and destructive self-contemplation" (Jones).
In most cases I tend to relate this symbol to Bacon, Locke, and Newton whose portraits hang at Jefferson's Monticello. jc
