Negro Leagues Records: Heritage on the South Node

When Major League Baseball announced that statistical records of the Negro Leagues have become official Major League records, the Moon was positioned at 25 degrees Aquarius square to Uranus in transit and exactly conjunct to the Sun of the Negro Leagues birthchart of 24 degrees Aquarius. More relevant, Mercury, in transit at 20 degrees Taurus, was exactly conjunct the Negro Leagues South Node of 20 Taurus. This degree is the exact spot where the Jupiter-Uranus conjunction occured a month ago.

The South Node of the Moon represents one’s past and one’s heritage. The South Node of the Negro Leagues contains a treasure chest of stories, legends and statistical records. The Jupiter-Uranus conjunction did not unearth these records since they were already known to baseball historians. It is more significant that the addition of these records into the Major League record has subverted the list of all-time leaders. Amoung the changes: Ty Cobb, a notorious racist, no longer holds the record for all-time batting average. That record is now held by African-American Josh Gibson.

Josh Gibson did the work. But Jupiter and Uranus deserve an assist for putting him in the MLB record book.
