Will the House Burn Down This Year? Part 2
As you remember from last time, the answer to the question "Will the House Burn Down This Year?" was 'Yes.' The answer to 'When' was roughly Sept 18 to 24, 2021, with some outliers.
In response to the question, 'Is this result set in stone? Ie., is my house fated to burn down, or could this be prevented by timely actions?,' JM Greer said that the response you get to such questions is the outcome we can expect under the conditions when the question was asked.
This seems to match my thinking on the matter-- Not all bad outcomes can be avoided, nor are all good outcomes certain, but our actions do often make a difference. Let's try for the outcome we want!
To that end, I hired some tree cutters and had them remove 8 trees that were too close to the house, and trim off the lower branches on two enormous trees. I have been clearing dead branches off the lower 10 to 15 feet of the remaining trees, raking off litter and getting rid of ornamental emerald cedar trees--These will catch fire and burn fiercely even when green! I was not able to find a Hardy Board(R) installer. They are all busy until at least February.
Meanwhile, the drought continues with record heat and smoky air that smells like I constantly have my head inside a dirty wood stove. Ash continues to fall from the sky, sometimes large chunks of it. Our area is on standby alert for evacuation, which means that, at any time, we can be ordered to leave by the government. We have been advised to prepare bugout supplies, including water and food for 3 to 7 days, medicine, clothing etc.--And to find a distant friend or relative to visit outside the fire zone, should evacuation be necessary.
Along with everyone else here, I wonder "Have my preparations been good enough?"
We'll see what Spiritus Mundi says--
QUESTION:
"Will the tree cutting and yardwork we've done thus far be enough to prevent our house from burning down in 2021?"
Chart: House Chart
Querent: House I
Quesited: House IV
Mothers: Acquisitio, Fortuna Minor, Tristitia, Puella

Notice the Symmetry in the Shield Chart!
However, I chose the House Chart for evaluation;
House I Acquisitio; positive
House IV Puella; positive
Aquisitio travels to V, so we have conjunction
Court Story: Fortuna Major for both witnesses, and Judge is Populus. May indicate lots of hard work leads to success through difficulty.
Inner element of Fortuna Major is 'Air,' and Inner element of Populus is 'Water.'
Over-all, looks like my house may not burn down after all this year!
Other observations:
Adding Acquisitio and Puella together --> Cauda Draconis; Endings.
Cardines:
I Beginning Acquisitio; A good picture of me, scrabbling about in an effort to do all possible to keep the house.
Acquisitio is also in V -- So maybe rain is coming! It would certainly help!
X Middle Amissio: Loss (or generosity) in the middle. Wildfires may still be coming, and may cause loss, even if it is not the house. Amissio also appears in XII, house of restrictions and authorities. Loss of government controls? Possibly a breakdown of law and order at some point.
VII End: Tristitia: Sorrow at the end. Note Tristitia is in III as well, so sorrow in the local area. Fire is probably still coming...
IV Aftermath: Puella: Love after the end of it. Possibly a good outcome, but fickle--no guarantee fires won't come again. Puella is also in house VIII, so maybe the Interested Goddess has something to do with the favourable outcome.
Also;
II Fortuna Minor is found in II (Treasure/precious things) and VI (Employees/Professionals/Injuries/Illnesses).
Over-all it looks like a favourable reading to me. I still plan to evacuate the heirlooms to storage, and continue my preparations, but I feel a lot more hopeful now.
As always, any comments or observations are welcome!
