      At This Point in Time - Christopher Miller

      Introduction

      This book started out as a series of guest appearances on David Lowe’s Sunday Late Show on BBC Radio Devon and Cornwall.

      This is how it came about: I had appeared on David’s programme for the first time on 31 May 1992, reading a poem called, Last Words of an Unknown Soldier. On the following Sunday morning, David rang, having awakened from his sleep thinking about my spot on the show. During the course of our conversation, he asked if it were possible to do an astrological chart for the D-Day Landing, as it was the 48th anniversary of that event the previous day. Having never erected a mundane chart before, I was sceptical of its value, but I promised him that I would check it out and let him know the results on our way to the BBC radio station in Exeter later in the evening.

      Well, I went to work on the chart, using London as the base, timing the invasion at 6:30 a.m. War Time (double British Summer Time, or WT, for short) on the 6th of June 1944, and before my very eyes the energies surrounding that event made themselves known. It was not long before I started to get excited because I suddenly knew what had been the cosmic triggers and why it had turned out the way it did. I could not wait to tell David what I had discovered.

      David sensed by my enthusiasm that something special was about to be revealed on his programme, so we had a short discussion about the chart before we went on air, and then played it by ear when the show started.

      The rest, they say, is History.

      Thanks, David Lowe, for being the inspiration and continuing support for this endeavour.

      Chapter One: D-Day Invasion

      The History

      Dwight D. Eisenhower chose Monday, June 5 1944, as D-Day, the date for invading Europe. The success of the invasion depended heavily on calm seas and clear skies. On Saturday, June 3, the weather turned bad. Weather experts reported that gusty winds and high waves would make it impossible for landing craft to cross the English Channel on Monday. Eisenhower ordered a 24-hour delay until Tuesday, June 6. On Sunday, the weatherman predicted calmer weather for the next 48 hours, but poor conditions after that.

      Eisenhower faced one of the gravest decisions of the entire war. He could send the first wave of troops across the channel as planned. Or he could postpone the entire operation for two weeks, until the channel would have low tides again. But, by then, the closely guarded invasion secret would probably have leaked out.

      At 4 a.m. on June 5, Eisenhower held a final staff meeting. This chief of staff, Brigadier General Walter Bedell Smith, later wrote: …He sat there…tense, weighing every consideration…Finally, he looked up, and the tension was gone from his face. He said briskly, ‘Well, we’ll go.’

      The first wave of troops crossed the choppy channel at 6:30 a.m. on June 6, 1944. By nightfall, the Allies had a firm hold on a long area of beach. After 11 months of bloody fighting, Germany surrendered on May 7, 1945.

      The Human Spirit

      There are a couple of features about this chart which first caught my eye. For instance, there is a Sun, Venus and Uranus conjunction opposed by the Moon. At a harmonious angle to this opposition is a powerful Pluto-Mars conjunction. And conjunct to the Ascendant is that old task-master Saturn.

      To me, the most significant of these aspects is the one which is the conjunction between Pluto and Mars. In March of 1987, the Townsend Thoresen ferry, Herald of Free Enterprise capsized outside Zeebrugge during a very violent storm. This storm happened during the time of a Mars-Pluto opposition. That same evening, Friday the 6th, I was on an Intercity train bound for Newton Abbot at the height of the storm. The train was delayed at Dawlish due to huge waves lapping the tracks. Somehow, the Mars-Pluto connection causes ‘bad weather’ and all anyone can do is sit out the storm. So, too, with the Mars-Pluto conjunction in 1944: the weather was stormy on the day of the exact alignment, the 3rd of June, but cleared when this aspect became sextile (60°) to the Sun-Venus-Uranus conjunction and trine (120°) to the Moon on the 6th. At the same time, Saturn, the timekeeper, came to the horizon (i.e. conjunct to the Ascendant) and said, Now!

      If Operation Overlord were a person, I would have shared this analysis with him about his Sun (analyses based on Robert Hand’s Planets in Youth): You enjoy games, especially ones that require you to match wits with someone else. A very playful person, you sometimes like to play tricks on other people. (Sun in Gemini)

      A shy person, you prefer to stay in the background if possible; in fact, you like to hide. It’s hard for you to be open and direct, even when you know there is nothing to be afraid of. (Sun in 12th House)

      You will learn to understand yourself through opposition to the world and other people, perhaps through fighting. You always fight for what you believe to be right. You respect people who make solid worldly achievements that have concrete, observable results, people who complete large-scale projects that everyone can point to. (Sun Opposition Moon)

      You tend to compromise to keep the peace, even when there is a serious issue to be worked out. At times it is necessary to confront people directly and forcefully; otherwise people may not take you seriously, or they may try to walk all over you. (Sun Conjunct Venus)

      You may act as a goad to others, because you like to rile people up a bit and make them see the world differently. You are very annoyed by people who seem to be stuck in the mud, and you want to do something to change them. (Sun Conjunct Uranus)

      Quite literally, the choice of D-Day must have been inspired. But by whom? Was someone in the War Office consulting an Astrologer? Or was Dwight D. Eisenhower ‘tuned-in’ to the Cosmos? Whatever the answers are to these questions, there can be no doubt that the outcome of World War II hinged on the timing of the Normandy landings. It must have been at such a time as this that the leaders of the Allied forces thanked their lucky stars!

      Chapter Two: Moon Landing

      The History

      The moon is a moving target. It travels around the earth at more than 2,000 miles per hour. During Apollo 11’s three-day journey, the moon moved more than 165,000 miles. Therefore, the spacecraft was aimed at a spot in space 165,000 miles ahead of the moon – and it had to reach this spot at exactly the same time that the moon did.

      Apollo 11 lifted off launch pad 39A at Cape Kennedy at 9:32 a.m. (Eastern Daylight-Saving Time) on July 16, 1969. On board were Astronauts Neil A. Armstrong, Michael Collins, and Edwin E. (Buzz) Aldrin, Jr.

      At 1:45 p.m. (EDST) on July 20, 1969 the Lunar Module (LM) Eagle, with Armstrong and Aldrin aboard, separated from the spacecraft Columbia. By 4:17 p.m. of the same day, the Eagle landed on the moon on the rocky plain called the Sea of Tranquility. At 10:56 p.m. Armstrong set foot as the first man on the moon, stating,

      One small step for man, one giant leap for mankind.

      Later, at 11:14 p.m., Aldrin joined Armstrong on the moon’s surface in order to collect lunar samples and set up scientific experiments. Aldrin described the view of the moon from the surface as magnificent desolation. At 12:50 p.m. on July 24, 1969, Apollo 11 splashed down in the Pacific Ocean.

      This isn’t the original first step: this is a subsequent one, when a camera was set in place.

      The Human Spirit

      This is a very interesting chart. For one thing, it is a bit difficult to erect a chart for an event that happened on the moon. Literally, all aspects that have to do with the moon are null and void because the chart takes the point of view of someone standing at Cape Kennedy, (now Cape Canaveral) Florida, at the time and date specified, and the Ascendant and Midheaven would not apply.

      So, except for an inconjunct aspect between Saturn and the Moon, all the remaining planets are in beneficial aspect to each other: altogether there are five conjunctions, eight sextiles and four trines. These aspects, when drawn on the chart, show up as a double-pointed arrow, directed mainly at the Jupiter-Uranus conjunction at 0° Libra in the Seventh House. This is the sign of cosmic reciprocity, of cooperation rather than competition, of consciousness objectified through associations and partnerships. Jupiter is the principle of expansion and growth as expressed in the accumulation of material wealth, but without the miserliness of a marked Saturnian trait; a balance of feeling and thought, of heart and mind, that yields…hopefulness. Uranus gives the perseverance to cope with and conquer material obstacles,
