The Astrogeographical resonance coordinates of central New York City for morphogenetic field level 1 (global resonance) which describes the supraregional, global topics of resonance of City: the Manhattan area has the coordinate for its astrogeographical longitude at 13° in highly magnetic, centralist fire sign Leo the sign of the sun, light, heart, power stations, kingdom, self-centering, self-esteem, self-expression and birth. The astrogeographical latitude coordinate is at 13° in water sign Cancer the sign of the moon, fertility, conception, pregnancy, motherhood, islands, coast-lines, beaches, river banks and emotional independence, feeling at home, emotional pain, isolation and compassion. As the opposite sign of Capricorn Cancer represents the most important astrological condition for modernity and allowance of the permanency of updates of culture, social conditions, arts and belief-systems and of living in the present time.

Cancer has a strong resonance with the origins of English culture but a strong opposition with the 27°Capricorn resonance coordinate of the English capital London that stands for the centralist and conservative role of the British Empire.

The combination of Cancer with Leo and of Leo with Cancer is present in the whole region of the East Coast from Bridgeport (Connecticut) all the way down to Washington which is located at 6°Cancer and 27°Leo.

Pluto (battle for power over foreign property or against foreign control) at 13°Taurus (sign of income, money, profits, market places, agricultural products, resources of the land) exactly square the 13°Leo resonance coordinate of New York explains this important step in the foundation process of what later became New York City.

Saturn conjunct New Amsterdam: the town chartered as a city in1653

**New Amsterdam in 1664 – painting by Johannes Vingboons**

The New Amsterdam settlement and harbor was first chartered as a city on 2 February 1653. By 1660 the population was about 1500 Europeans half of them Dutch and 375 Africans with 300 of them being slaves.

New Amsterdam (NY) was first chartered as a city during a retrograde Saturn (stabilization, legalization, administration, government) transit at 8°Leo conjunct (stabilization) the 13°Leo resonance of the area.
Saturn`s position appears to have had the function of confronting Mars (threat by violence) at 13°Scorpio (sign of tribal populations from the point of view of settled down ones, native Americans, nomads, criminal activities, underground organisations) exactly square to the 13°Leo resonance coordinate of the area.
the Sun as ruler over the Leo resonance coordinate of the New York area at 13° in Aquarius the sign of globalization, abstraction, multicultural populations and innovations was exactly opposite New York explaining how the colonial culture and the export trade away from New York dominated the status quo at New York.

Uranus as the indicator of globalization, overturning of governments, sailboats, sailing, multicultural influences, innovation, revolution and radical changes at 13° in his own sign Aquarius (revolution, globalization) was exactly opposite the 13°Leo resonance coordinate of New Amsterdam turning its name into New York.
the deliberate change of names too can be examined as a symptomatic act of Uranus and/or Aquarius through its symbolism as the sign of cuckoos and the analogy with the act of the planting of cuckoos eggs in foreign nests. In this case it is particularly interesting for consideration of this particular type of strategies as the South Node as indicator of the origin of the implantation was at 11°Aquarius and exactly conjunct Uranus and Chiron.
the position of Chiron the planetary ruler of Virgo the sign of long-term strategical planning, protected harbors, storing goods and securing income at 11°Aquarius was conjunct Uranus and opposite New Amsterdam explaining the long-term geo-strategical intentions behind the English coup that occupied the extremely promising Dutch colony.
the position of the North Node as indicator of targets at 11°Leo was exactly conjunct the 13°Leo resonance coordinate of New York.

Uranus conjunct, Saturn opposite and Neptune square; the end of the Britisch Occupation in 1783

**“Evacuation Day” and Washington’s Triumphal Entry in New York City on 25 November 1783**

New York End of British Occupation — **Birth Charts of New York: the End of British Occupation on 25 November 1783 calculated as a midday chart for 12:00 noon**

the astrogeographical T-cross transit situation of 3 of the slower moving outer planets in nearly exact aspect with the 13°Cancer resonance coordinate of New York was a spectacular line-up that may basically be examined in several ways: it explains how hard the colonial power must have clinged to the fast growing super-rich city and colony and how hard it was for New York and independent America to get rid of the British occupation.
retrograde Uranus the planet of revolution and the overturning of governments at 11° in Cancer the sign of emotional individuality and independence was conjunct the 13°Cancer resonance coordinate of New York explaining the events as a step of self-liberation, emancipation, self-finding and of measuring out ones fuller independent potentials.
Saturn as the planet of government control and stability was at 10° in his own sign Capricorn explaining that the pressure on the status quo in New York as represented by its 13°Cancer resonance coordinate came through the already existing legally valid (Saturn) Treaty of Paris which the British forces in New York were obliged (Saturn) fullfill . Saturn has a particular significance here also as the sign ruler over the 27°Capricorn resonance coordinate of London. In regard to this context Saturn stands for the British pressure onto New York.
at the same time and in an aspect of tension with the positions of Saturn and Uranus, Neptune as an indicator of the values of pure spirituality, dissolution of overcome structures and of destabilization of government control was near to 12° in Libra in a square angle to the 12°Cancer resonance coordinate of New York. Neptune therefore represented an element that questioned the motives and/or methods applied by both parties in the ongoing war.
Last but not least Pluto the planet of the battle for power was at 8°Aquarius moving directly towards the opposition to the 13°Leo resonance coordinate of New York.
