WILDFIRES - As of May 17th, 36 wildfires out of 115 in Alberta are out of control.

Note:  Mars (fire) in fiery sign Sagittarius is involved in a Dissociate Grand Cross.  As one Alberta resident stated, "we're used to fires around here."  This time, however, the progressed planetary overload was extreme...Uranus/Mars = sudden fire...Mars/Pluto = violent purging and given birth by the transits.

Progressions:  Uranus parallel natal Mars; Mars contraparallel natal Pluto.  Transits:  Mars trine Mercury; Uranus in Aries (fire) inconjunct natal Mercury; Pluto semi-square natal Mars (fire) in Sagittarius (fire).
