How Australia Vanquished COVID-19 - Thom Hartmann

Kudos to Australia!

April 27, 2020: Here's a Thom Hartmann segment with good news about Australia!


An Astro-Note

The modern founding Horoscope of Australia that I use comes from Nicholas Campion's The Book of World Horoscopes, chart #013, based on the continent's British colonization which began on January 26, 1788 Sydney "around dawn" (5:21 LMT):

Ascendant 6AQ00; Sun 5AQ36; Moon 13Vir05 (Virgo, sign of Health). One chart factor particularly of interest in light of current events and contagion is Australia's Mercury @23Cap48 which received the harsh, fanatical energies of the January 12, 2020 Saturn-Pluto Conjunction, a planetary pair with a potential for "mass murder." Adding Australia's Mercury to Saturn-Pluto suggests potential pictures of 'a desire to solve difficult problems, an urge to do research work, mental shrewdness toward efforts to meet goals, deep study, and/or stark realism' (Ebertin, Tyl, Munkasey).

Australia's Air-Earth Sun AQ-Moon Virgo blend of conscious and unconscious energies tends toward rationality, detailed research--medical or otherwise--and toward doing what needs to be done.

So apparently that's what they did.

Green Comet!

Space Weather News for March 20, 2007


GREEN COMET: There's a new comet in the southern hemisphere: Comet Lovejoy (C/2007 E2). Terry Lovejoy of Australia discovered it on March 15th using, remarkably, not a telescope but only an off-the-shelf digital camera. The green comet is too dim to see with the naked eye, but it is a nice target for backyard telescopes. After five days of monitoring, the comet's orbit is now known with some accuracy and it is possible to make predictions about Comet Lovejoy's future movements and brightness.

BONUS--VENUS AND THE MOON: When the sun goes down tonight, step outside and look west. You'll see Venus and the slender crescent Moon beaming together through the glow of sunset. If you miss the pair on March 20th, try again on the 21st. They will be beautifully close together on both nights.#

Mr Cheney flew out of Sydney en route to the United States on board Air Force 2, a Boeing 757, about 9am today after a four-day visit marred by violent protests, arrests and traffic chaos.

Plane carrying Vice President Cheney diverted for unspecified reason --Reason for course change on flight from Australia to U.S. unknown 24 Feb 2007 The plane carrying U.S. Vice President [sic] Dick Cheney from Australia to the United States was diverted to Singapore on Sunday because of unspecified problems, Australian Prime Minister John Howard said. "I am not aware of the full circumstances and I have not been told except that it has been diverted," Howard told reporters in Sydney.#

Hmmm...flying in circles, are we? Shades of 9/11. Are we supposed to worry now?

Debris Cloud over Australia

Space Weather News for Feb. 21, 2007
from SpaceWeather.com:

On February 19th, late-night sky watchers across Australia witnessed a bright explosion followed by a debris cloud that hung in the sky for nearly an hour. At first a mystery, the source of the blast is now understood. It was a Russian Briz-M rocket booster misplaced in orbit last year by the failed launch of an Arabsat communications satellite. The fuel tanks of the Briz-M ruptured on Feb. 19th, producing a vivid naked-eye display and more than 1000 pieces of debris. Experts are calling this a "major breakup event," comparable to or even worse than last month's Chinese anti-sat test.

Visit SpaceWeather.com for more information and pictures of the Briz-M breakup.
