Asteroid Eros #433 in Astrology

ASTEROID BASICS

DISCOVERED: 1898

CLASSIFICATION: NEAR EARTH OBJECT (First discovered!)

ORBIT PERIOD: 1.8 YRS

NAMED AFTER: EROS, SON OF APHRODITE

CROSSES THE ORBIT OF MARS

EROS IS OBSESSION, WHAT WE CANNOT SEE, SOMETHING THAT MAGNETIZES US - COULD BE GOOD OR BAD.

THE MYTH IS ALSO PRESENT IN TRANSIT & NATAL!

MOON LANDING

This famous event highlighted when our space craft landed* on the moon. Four days later Man first walked on the moon.
Mercury rules transportation, and this event was pivotal when it came to distances. Eros was also trine the Moon and conjunct Venus in Gemini at this time.
TITAN SUBMERSIBLE TRAGEDY

Saturn in Pisces represents restrictions and limitations from the ocean. Eros highlights that at this time, the general public was obsessed with finding the subversible, something that went missing and we could not find.
WOODSTOCK

Venus rules music, pleasure and enjoying beautiful things with others. The sign of Cancer though, can represent themes of patriotism and our country. Music that gives us a sense of pride because of where we are at. Woodstock at this time was an obsession over music (Eros). But with Vesta in the mix, this suggests cult followings and dedicated, devoted fans would make their way into this mundane expression too.
SINKING OF THE TITANIC

In traditional astrology, Drowning is signified with Aquarius. Could Eros and Uranus in Aquarius be an obsession over a drowning or a surprising event we cannot see?
