The High Heels wedding church in Aquarius with Scorpio.
The “Shoe Church” in Glass High Heel Church in Budai Township, Chiayi County, Taiwan was inaugurated on 8 Feb 2016 with Sun-Moon conjunction (new moon) in Aquarius in exact square to Mars in Scorpio. The building is 17m tall, The building sculpture is 12m wide and 25m long and was constructed to commemorate the blackfoot disease outbreak in the 1950s. The outbreak of the disease was caused by water pollution through arsenic poisoning. The effects of the mass poisoning often led to amputation of the feet.
The high-heel motif is said to represent the message that instead of that incredible disease of the feet young women can nowadays rise to modern life with high-heel shoes from that past traumatic darkness.
