The massacre in Paris on Wednesday January 7 2015, involving staff of the satirical magazine Charlie Hebdo has occurred in the context of clearly forecast astrological adversity.

The dominant cross pattern in Cardinal zodiac signs -Aries, Libra, Cancer, Capricorn has global long-term significance on numerous levels and carries themes applicable to this event:
Indicative of the role of Libra in justice/injustice, the perpetrators of the attacks voiced their intention to avenge the prophet Mohammed whose image had been depicted in the magazine in a manner viewed as offensive to them.
Cancer and Capricorn are associated with the larger family -people's shared cultural and nationalistic values and connections.
Patriotism will be intensely raised in France as a consequence.
Vigilante justice [Aries-Libra] is a high risk response under current energy patterns.
The risks remain strong through January
The following extract from a prior post for December 2014-January 2015 gives a highly relevant descriptive outline.
Events of December 2014 are a foretaste of the intensity likely in January 2015
The whole month has many high impact potentials for disturbed energy amongst people and the natural elements.
In addition particular points stand out:
All four of the cardinal signs -Aries, Libra, Cancer, Capricorn will be activated in the range of 13-16 degrees, with the Sun, Moon, and 2 lunar nodes forming a cardinal cross pattern at the January 5 full moon -peak effects likely to fall in the range of days from 3-7 Jan 2015
Cardinal signs emphasise BALANCE and issues about relating/relationships.
Relationship with yourself
Relationships with others
Capacity to nurture and support others
Capacity to guide and mentor others
Role as a parent.
Where too much or too little effort is being applied
Critical issues are likely to arise around these areas -wherever relevant in your life [even non-parents have a quasi-parenting role in supporting others]
Power dynamics will need be addressed in the context of relating.
Tensions, dissent, conflict and violence are likely side-effects of confrontations arising re relating issues.
Beyond the personal domain of relating are the societal, communal, governmental contexts.
How well is your government providing support for its people?
How much power should governments wield?
Who is in control?
Again these sorts of questions give rise to public unrest.
January 10 is also notable for a rebellious, anarchic thread of energy being sparked with potential for aggression.
Aside from disturbed human energy [ other species are not excluded] the natural forces in our atmosphere and environment are subjected to significant readjustments -also in pursuit of balance - the four cardinal signs link to the four directions, the winds, the movements and flows of natural elements.
Expect significant extreme weather effects as relevant to changes that are already underway in your local climate: think of where the change is shifting [hotter? drier? wetter? colder? windier? etc] and notice if any intensification is forecast during January.
