Mount Vesuvius Erupts (October 26-27, 79 AD [OS])

We saw the tail end of a documentary last night, which examined the remains of Pompeii after the eruption of Mount Vesuvius. Small details were already embedded in my mind, suggesting that my life in the 1st century may have been still operating. For instance, the eruption happened in the middle of the day. And the late October dating makes the most sense, as later research proved. I chose October 27 [OS] which equates to October 25 [NS]. This YouTube video suggests October 31 [OS]. Who knows?

Here’s the chart I erected for the event:

I know it sounds like Roman propaganda, but the Roman god, Jupiter, may have played a major role that day, after all. The planet Jupiter is inconjunct to both the Sun and the Midheaven in Scorpio. At the same time, Mercury is inconjunct to Mars. Up Jupiter! Up Mars!

The second coming of Christ (Titus) occurred when he became Roman Emperor at the end of June 79 AD, so he would have seen this devastation for himself. Strange how Karma works, eh?
