Fort McMurray – a disastrous wipeout

The catastrophic fire which has forced the evacuation of nearly 90,000 residents from Fort McMurray in Canada is expected to destroy most of the town.

Fort McMurray is an oil town in Alberta which has grown rapidly from a village when it was first incorporated on 6 May 1947 to a city.

The 1947 chart has a wide Fire Grand Trine (depending on start time), as befits an entrepreneurial place, of Saturn Pluto in Leo trine a Sagittarius Moon trine Venus (Mars) in Aries, formed into a Kite by Venus opposition Neptune. That focal point and driving planet Neptune is being seriously hampered and under great distress from a Solar Arc Saturn conjunction at the moment. Tr Uranus is square the Solar Arc Sun; and the Solar Arc Moon may be opposition Saturn or Pluto or the Saturn/Pluto midpoint. So all devastating and bleak.

On midpoints tr Neptune is opposing the Mars/Saturn midpoint pointing to extensive losses; and tr Pluto will soon be square the Venus/Mars midpoint indicating great anguish.

There doesn’t seem to be huge loss of life but the way ahead will be filled with aggravation since tr Pluto will square the FM Mars in 2017/18 which is hugely frustrating. What will be helpful is tr Pluto trine the Sun this year and moving by 2020 to sextile the Jupiter in Scorpio which should see it commercially viable once more.
