FULL MOON March 28th 2002.
This Full Moon is midway between Lunar Eclipses of Dec. 2001 and June 2002. The Moon is in Libra, near the fixed star Spica, and in close square to Jupiter. The Moon forms an airy grand trine with Saturn and Neptune. Mars forms an inconjunct aspect to Pluto. Venus sextiles Uranus. This lunation has a dynamic quality indicating celebration and fortitude. An essentially social occasion.
The Full Moon at 8 degrees Libra falls on the UK National Chart Ascendant. A change in the perceived 'identity' of the nation may be seen to stem from this time.
The Astrocartography map below set for the exact time of this lunation shows Mars (in Taurus...Sadam Hussein's sun sign) exactly setting over Baghdad, and Mecca) (symbolising the warrior resting!), and Saturn exactly setting over Kabul, Pluto sets at Islamabad, and the Moon (rising just west of the UK) is applying to the MC of Khatmandu.
