Well written and well researched. I couldn't help but notice that there is a strong connection with the discovery of Neptune as well. This event was September 1846. Liberal reform causes and universalism or socialism are hall marks of Neptune and not much in evidence before his discovery. Being the universal solvent, he tends to dissolve social distinctions but very often goes too far in the process. A little socialism, like a little narcotic for pain can be useful but too much of it tends to dissolve the structure that it is intended to serve, whether a society or an individual. This proves true in historical examples as well as astrological delineation. Just some thoughts in response. And, again, a first rate job. First rate article. Well written and well researched.
