The Astrology of the 1996 Twin Stars of David

 

In the September 3rd Star, the Moon is in Taurus, but the Star was still in effect when the Moon moves to early degrees of Gemini, highlighting the switch from earth-water to air-fire. All four elements are represented in this Star. Differences in harmony is a theme of this short-lived Star as the 1996 Twin Star occurring one month later. It is interesting that the September star was flanked by two hurricanes on the U.S. east coast, Edouard which hit New England early on September 2, 1996 and Hurricane Fran which began to shower the east coast late on September 3rd. The time of this Star was tumultuous, and in fact, the union of two opposites can be a whirlwind time.

​

On October 1, 1996, there was a second Star of David in the sky in less than a month. This October Star of David was linked to the September one just before it. They are similar in formation and can be thought of as twin stars. The October Star shifts further into the fire-air element and there are no water planets present. The transition to fire and air is complete with the fire Grand Trine between Saturn, Mars, and Pluto, and the air Grand Trine formed by the Moon, Sun, and Uranus.
