25 January, 2020- Chinese New Year, Wuhan, China

The Chinese New Year heralded in the Year of the Rat seen as a sign of wealth and surplus in Chinese culture.   The celebrations of Chinese New year were cancelled as China forbid travel into and out of the province of Hubei.

The Virus had definately taken hold in Wuhan and the first case was recorded in Australia on 25 January 2020 in Victoria, when a man returning from Wuhan, China, was tested positive for SARS-CoV-2.

Mercury had completed its transit though the stellium of planets in Capricorn and succeeded in a complete lock down of the city of Wuhan.  

Venus is conjunct Neptune in Pisces, with a strong focus on personal values and the need to redefine whats important in our lives. 

Chinese New Year occurs on the new moon in Aquarius in the first house with a focus on personal identity but also an awareness of your own place in the world and how your actions can impact on others, in relation to the virus.
