A race of benign humankind would emerge? Probably not - Pluto would be waiting in the wings. ;-)Twilighthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14138621610593773784noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16659850.post-87132068263855757902011-05-30T15:10:26.373-05:002011-05-30T15:10:26.373-05:00Being allergic to anything military (to the point ...Being allergic to anything military (to the point that I almost went to jail in Switzerland for manifesting my convictions), I also appreciate Longfellows poem.<br /><br />However, some time after I had finally managed to get out of the army, a business friend, British and head of the Geneva subsidiary of one of the English major merchant banks asked me if I would make the horoscope of his new-born son. (He already had 3 daughters then).<br /><br />The child had, I remember, Mars conjunct his Midheaven in Sagittarius. I told the parents when delivering my interpretation, that probably their son might get involved with the military some day, and would be quite successful.<br /><br />They were amazed. The reason being that the father's family since time immemorial was always providing officers (and some of high rank, they said) to the British army. <br /><br />So, like the military or not, destiny seams to have and always probably will reserve a place for them.
