The end of June marked a tense Pluto and Uranus square which foretold tensions and accidents. Astrologers around the world warned of high profile break ups and nationwide news that would capture our attention and it sure did with weather chaos holding the United States in tense grip. Major flooding of the Century in Duluth Minnesota and record breaking fires in Colorado burning down hundreds of homes highlighted a fire and water prophecy that brought us into July.

This will go down as the forth of July tension of fire and water disrupting our lives.

In the Tarot Arcana we have card # 20 which is Judgement and the symbol of FIRE trine. Its Hebrew association is the letter Shin for "tooth"

Then there is card # 12 which is the Hanged Man and the symbol of WATER trine. Its Hebrew association is the letter Mem for "water"

The year 2012 featured a frightening aspect of Fire and Water which forms the alchemical marriage and the two trines of the Star of David. Male and Female powers combined.

One marriage that fulfilled or failed this aspect was Katie Holmes and Tom Cruise announcing their divorce. Scientology was rumored to play a part of Katies dissatisfaction because she is the one that filed. The Mother figure is angry and natures wrath is testament.

It seemed that the United States was under intense pressure from both elements with the Duluth flooding and more than 100 million dollars worth Northland infrastructure flooding.. You have the East coast shoreline rising and the 1,200 records broken this year for triple digit temperatures in 25 states. In Colorado Springs over 350 homes were lost in a foothills forest fire. Water and storm even knocked power lines down in Maryland, Washington DC and Virginia leaving millions without power and air conditioning.

What comes to mind is a Revelation verse

Revelation 16: 8,9 , And the fourth one poured out his bowl upon the sun, and to the sun it was granted to scorch the men with fire. And the men were scorched with great heat, but they blasphemed the name of God who has the authority over these plagues and they did not repent so as to give glory to him.

We also have what is considered the third Mayan Prophecy of heat wave and climate chaos blanketing the world and being part of the transition and upheaval as we are now in the year of the infamous December 21, 2012 approaching and the ending of this age according the the Mayan calendar.

Is this the stirrings of Apocalypse? I wish you safety and peace during this stressful summer. I am back from vacation right now after being the wilderness doing my meditations and will be getting back to responding to my inbox.

"An Apocalypse (Greek: “lifting of the veil” or “revelation”) is a disclosure of something hidden from the majority of mankind in an era dominated by falsehood and misconception, i.e. the veil to be lifted." — Wikipedia
