Astrology works by symbolism, by the intimate recognition with wonder that the Cosmos is alive. There are however times when this symbolism is a flashing neon blinding light and jumping to the world’s attention. In this case I will be concentrating more on what is happening in Italy because it is what I am living on everyday basis.
August 2021 has been a very hectic one. I talked about it here:

But August was just a taster because September 2021 had an even bigger momentum. Click here to read:

The above post I wrote on the 16th of September 2021 as the Sun was triggering the eclipse event of the 14th of December 2020 which saw USA, then all other countries starting the worldwide Covid-19 injections mass campaign, linking forever the injections and their evolution in time with the Nodal axis Gemini-Sagittarius. This means every time something gets triggered on such axis, we will see a new chapter evolving in this story.
Little did I know that precisely in those September days something else was happening. At the Scuderia del Quirinale, in Rome, Italy, “The Gates of Hell” of Auguste Rodin had just landed. Here is the link:

The Quirinale is the place where the President of Italy has his official residence. The Scuderia, is the part that used to house the horses and now became a museum. (The Symbolism of this will become apparent later).
Now let us go to Mercury and Pluto.
Since 05:10 UTC of today 27-09-2021, Mercury at 25 Libra, is now retrograde. Retrograde means, a planet from our point of view on Earth, goes backwards through the sky and zodiac. Lots of review, redoing. Just ad re to any other verb and you get the gist. It is also a time of inward-looking thinking. The one between our multiple selves and in-between dimensions.
I am watching closely this retrograde because last planetary talk Mercury had before starting its journey backwards was with Pluto in Capricorn on the 22-09-2021. The last aspect a planet makes before turning around is of utmost importance because it colours the whole journey of the planet.
Mercury will meet again with Pluto on the 1-10-2021 at 14:26 UTC and then again for the 3rd and last time on the 02-11-2021 at 08:39 UTC.
The part of the zodiac that Mercury will be revising is between 10 Libra to 25 Libra. Mercury touched for first time 10 Libra on the 07-09-2021 with the dark Moon in Virgo that marked the middle of in between eclipse seasons, the bendings of the Moon, critical energy points. This is the link of the post where I talked about it:
https://t.me/drhilaryspiteriofficialchannel/110
Mercury will touch again 10 Libra with the Full Moon at 27 Aries 20-10-2021. Two days after stationing direct and is still basically standing still in the sky saying “Look at me. Look at me!” whilst appearing in the morning sky.
Mercury will be out of 25 Libra by the Dark Moon at 12 Scorpio. The lunation that heralds the entry of the last eclipse season of 2021 and with the Sun very near the 15 degree of Scorpio the mid-point between the Autumn Equinox and Winter Solstice. This particular eclipse season will see the first eclipse on the Taurus-Scorpio axis (19th of November 2021 at 27 Taurus).
The intimate part of Mercury retrograde, when Mercury goes in the heart of the Sun to be renewed is on the 09-10-2021. On that day Mercury receives his new message from the Sun. This is an inferior conjunction. That is Mercury is between the Earth and the Sun. The message is secret and known only to Mercury. This cycle was started with Mercury superior merging with the Sun on the 01-08-2021 at 9 Leo whilst talking to the Lunar Nodes in Gemini-Sagittarius. That is when Mercury was communing with the Gods. Now he is communing with the Earth, under the Lunar influence.
We will know what that message is on an outer level when Mercury will make its first appearance as a morning star just before dawn around 20-10-2021. On the 02-11-2021 Mercury will be perfecting his last square (Mars like talk) with Pluto in Capricorn, and the day after 03-11-2021 the Moon will occult, cover Mercury. Mercury through the Moon will deliver another message, but it is hidden from us.

The first Mercury square Pluto was incorporated with the Full Moon in Pisces of the 21-09-2021 and in the Libra Ingress Chart (Autumn Equinox) which saw the local (Rome) Ascendent at nearly 25 degrees Taurus with the Moon Nodal axis in the 1st and 7th house axis. That 25 degrees Taurus will be activated with the November eclipse at 27 Taurus. Mercury is in the 6th house of sickness and Mars, the Lord that yields a cutting instrument, is at the cusp (the energy point) of the 6th house whilst receiving an obstacle by Saturn in Aquarius on the 10th house (house of the highest representative of the country)
I wrote about it here:
https://t.me/drhilaryspiteriofficialchannel/117

Mercury is an important player in Rome’s weather for the year because in the Aries Ingress chart, (the Spring one) Mercury is right on the 10th house cusp for all of us to see. It was in Pisces, not Mercury’s favourite place for logic and straight thinking. And guess what? Mercury is ruler of the Ascendant in Gemini with the nodes in the 12th and 6th house, the house of self-undoing and the house of sickness. (The jabbing axis). Jupiter in Aquarius in the 9th (the house of those who guide us and advise us, law) is ruling the Descendent (Portal of Death) in Sagittarius. Moon in Gemini ruled by that funky Mercury is in the 12 house too near the nodes for comfort. Add another detail Mercury is standing up there with Neptune. Deception galore.
And if that is not enough Pluto in Capricorn is at 26 Capricorn in the 8th house of death.
Mercury is the only planet that has free access without harm inflicted between the highest parts of the Sky and the bowels of the earth. Mercury is called a psychopomp. Definition click here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Psychopomp
When Mercury does an inferior retrograde like this own, the earthlier part is emphasised. With Pluto, Lord of the Underworld implicated, a trip to Hell is granted with the ticket.
So now perhaps (and I hope) you can see why I am linking this Mercury retrograde, Pluto and Rodin’s Gates of Hell. Mercury, the messenger, in the house of Libra, the arts, being obsessively intensified by Pluto in Capricorn.
The Gates of Hell, opens in the Scuderia del Quirinale, the horse stables turned museum, in the palace where the highest representative has his official residence.
Read, South Node (death) in Sagittarius (horses), in the President of Italy palace (the one who has signed and gave the go ahead for the mass inoculation becoming mandatory to earn a living in various stepping laws during the year).
Another “coincidence”, the exhibition, which is aptly called Inferno will open on the 15th of October 2022, the day the Super Green Pass will come into action. The Super Green Pass is basically the coercion of all people in the Italian working force to be either jabbed or nasal swabbed every 48 hours to be able to earn a living. (The jabs are free, the nasal swabs no). This Super Green Pass was announced when Mars and Sun were triggering the Moon Nodal Axis and Mercury was the furthest away from the Sun. Mercury is the natural significator of any ID card. Link here:

Obviously only the ones who have Green Pass will see this Inferno exhibition and have the pleasure to pass through the Gates of Hell.

Here is an appetiser of which paintings and sculptures will be exhibited.
It seems here in Italy a trip to the deepest parts of Hell is on the menu for the next month or so, to say the least. For some it will be more so than others.
Choose wisely. There is a lot more at stake than we can visibly see with our eyes and reason with our minds.
