As previously stated, the first two eclipses in 2022 return with realities or timelines of ‘Ambushes’ and ‘Ruptures’, thus alluding to their circumstantial manifestations and not to its forces or energies which are less evident in daily life.
Namely, ‘Ambushes’ forces neutralise energies, be it by isolating, weakening or distorting its potencies, leaving them without the capacity to propagate; and, ‘Ruptures’ forces are those breaking a continuity by dissolving it.
Instead, in light of the facts happening since last 24 February, identifying ‘Ambushes’ and ‘Ruptures’ in ongoing realities is rather evident.

Solar Eclipse 119 ‘Ambushes’
It will reach its greatest intensity next 30 April and its realities are running approximately since last January until the end of July.
This eclipse inaugurated its timeline in year 850, among events registered is that of Perfecto from Córdoba, a Catholic priest. And according to Catholic sources he was surrounded by a group of Muslims who asked him his views on Jesus and Mahoma, at first Perfecto refused to talk about their prophet fearing retaliation.
By dint of insistence to express himself freely ensuring immunity, priest Perfecto made himself the favour to insult Mahoma, answering among other things that he was “…a devil’s man, sorcerer, adulterous, deceptive, god damned, Satan’s instrument, come from hell to the ruin and damnation of the people…”.
Hence, they proceeded to take him to the judge, who jailed him and later was executed. For Catholics, that later made him a saint, he remained as the first martyr of a long list, mentioned as the Martyrs of Cordoba.
Lunar Eclipse 131 ‘Ruptures’
It will reach its greatest intensity next 16 May and inaugurated its energies year 1427; its realities are running approximately since past mid February until mid August.
‘Ruptures’ inaugurated in year 1427 and its realities were registered in the Battle of Cremona between the Duchy of Milan and the Republic of Venice, where realities from ‘Ambushes’ eclipse are found during its 33rd. return.
Although a year earlier a truce was signed through the Treaty of Ferrara, the Duke of Milano understood the truce to build a big army in order to recover lost territories. The Venetian army also reinforced itself, besides it had the support of the anti-Visconti league composed by Florence, Ferrara, Siena, Mantova, Savoia, Sicily and Brescia that rebelled against the Duke Visconti of Milano, who decided to break the truce and take by surprise Brescia, calculating he could ambush them.
After confrontations along Cremona walls with losses for both armies, a rumour runs that the head of the Venetian army, Carmagnola, fell in battle and troops from Milan thinking they had won decide to ransack the enemy’s camp. But, they did not won, Carmagnola fell only from his horse and was still in command. He took advantage of disband to ransack and sent squads to surrender the camp. Many were able to flee but hundreds were captured.
Battle of Cremona that lasted only eight hours produced many ambushes and the Duke of Milano that decided to ambush the enemy ended up ambushed himself. Brescia became part of Venice and would remain so for net three centuries. In spite that there were more battles until the signing of peace agreement in 1428, in the Battle of Cremona emerged a rupture that went beyond Brescia, rupturing also the Milanese dominance and consolidating a new era for Venice that would take her to be an economic world power.
Other ‘Ruptures’ and ‘Ambushes’ in the Fourth Hussite Crusade. On 4 August 1427 in the Czech Republic, Catholic troops are defeated in the Battle of Tachov, near Stříbro, then Kingdom of Bohemia. This crusade ordered by Pope Martin V ended up with members of his army fleeing through the woods towards the West. It’s also this crusade marking a rupture in the dominions of the Catholic Church with splits on religious postulates that a century later would materialize Martin Luther’s Protestant Reforms.
Catholic defeats were a constant in Hussite Wars and their five crusades (1419-1434) that even though they wanted to eradicate Jan Hus followers, who was burnt at the stake in 1415 by resolution of the Constanza Concilium, which also provided to exhume John Wycliffe’s bones to burn them and scatter his ashes although he died 40 years before. Posthumous punishment for who was considered heretic, but for hussites it was a great offense, Jan Hus was the father of their movement and John Wycliffe the spiritual father, it was in his works that Hus based his postulates.
Patterns of both eclipses in last three returns
1968
Prague Spring (January-August 1968) tried to introduce reforms granting additional rights to citizens of then Czechoslovakia, part of economic decentralisation policies and democratisation, besides dividing the territory in a federation of three republics: Bohemia, Moravia-Silesia and Slovakia, but finally it only divided into two (Czech Republic and Slovak Republic). Soviets did not approve these reforms and after failed negotiations, they occupied the country with half a million troops and war weaponry. Although there was no military resistance, not only a big migrating wave took shape, but also civil resistance reflected ruptures with the Soviet Union, which estimated to take the country in four days but found resistance during eight months until diplomatic efforts emerged.
Other ‘Ambushes’ and ‘Ruptures’ in 1968’s return of these eclipses are reflected in the Vietnam War, when North American soldiers killed hundreds of civilians in the Slaughter of My Lai and it was in 1968 that the war changed its course with several ruptures on the alleged victory of the United States. It was also in 1968 with the return of these eclipses that Martin Luther King was assassinated in Memphis, United States.
However, the events with greater world impact in 1968 under these two eclipses were in France. The gong of countless ruptures from May 68 still reverberates and even today there are debates about everything that it caused, meant and was. A chain of protests from May to June with students and workers as protagonists in movements against authoritarianism, capitalism, USA imperialism, and other, but finally went beyond all that, causing deep ruptures in the French society and at global level, ambushing powers which did not understand what was happening and reacting late, wrongly and never. Ruptures that produced revolutions at all levels, in spite that May 68 was not a move to take power, and above all, it did not start a war to subvert orders, but did subvert them.
1986
Returns in 1986 for these eclipses register the assassination in Stockholm, Sweden, of Prime Minister Olof Palme while he walked on the street with his wife on 28 February.
Another one. The night of 1 April, United States in coordination with the United Kingdom bomb by surprise residential neighborhoods in Tripoli and Bengazi, Libya, killing a hundred or so citizens. The order was given by President Ronald Reagan in retaliation for attacks in Gulf of Syrte and the attack in a Berlin discotheque frequented by North American soldiers stationed in Germany. Washington alleged bombarding on Libya was legitimate defense to avoid future attacks.
Another one. On 26 April Chernobyl nuclear catastrophe happens in Ukraine, then part of the Soviet Union, when one of the reactors produces an explosion that later was informed to be due to several technical mistakes on security. The explosion liberated tones of nuclear fuel into the atmosphere and still today its effects on that night, the following days and even today are still discussed, not only around the nuclear power plant, but in all Ukraine, neighboring countries and all Europe. Among other ruptures, the one lingering on is the loss of credibility on nuclear power plants and the risk of security on them.
Another one. On 28 April, CBS channel in United States published photos revealing physical and sexual abuses to Iraqi prisoners who were humiliated, tortured, raped and even executed by North American soldiers with unimaginable levels of sadism. Photos were taken in the Abu Ghraib prison by the USA army officers, in some they posed for the photos, and, were also soldiers from that country present in the prison when those things happened that delivered them to the press.
United States authorities faced a crisis that gave little or no space for defense, they were surrounded by the aggressors that were part of their people and also on high posts, there were no foreign enemies to point fingers at; if the media talked of the Abu Ghraib scandal, facts went way further, they were crimes of war that exceeded all possible limits, shaking the foundations on which they based war on terrorism. The fracture caused by those photos is still going on, specially among army officers and veterans, but not too loud, there was a process, trial and guilty ones with results that did not convince much and sowed a lot of doubts if this was happening somewhere else and if it stopped at all. Next government introduced normative to forbid torture, closed prisons and other measures trying to amend may ruptures.
2004
The last return from these two eclipses was in 2004. On 4 March, the world looked on bewilderment the attacks in Madrid which happened before 8 am, when citizens where going to their daily activities and saw themselves ambushed by simultaneous detonations on four trains killing 193 people and wounding more than 2,000. While help was undergoing for the victims on the scene, when no one understood well what was happening, at the same moment that two other artifacts that did not detonate were dismantled, while desperate citizens were trying to find out if their loved ones were fine, before the authorities investigating directly the scene pronounced on who could have committed such atrocity, media was full of declarations from Aznar government authorities, himself and other members from his party (Partido Popular) stating the attacks were done by ETA.
The National Police was on the front line of the events and also saw in bewilderment these declarations through the media which was a rupture with reality, that information did not come from them while gathering evidence and what they had did not aim at ETA. The day after, the police had enough evidence to contradict the governmental information and evidence aimed not to ETA but to Al Qaeda, they even had names and were chasing them. Meanwhile, three days to national elections mutual accusations were unleashed between the two major parties (PP and PSOE) and rumours intensified on distorted information.
Credibility on government fell and also media suffered a political rupture with 11M placing some of them on the list of ‘their media’, years later they would be part of research process due to contents disseminated. Although there were massive manifestations against the 11M attacks, the debate was greater through the media on how much those explosions from 11M influenced the results of the elections won by Jose Luis Rodriguez Zapatero from PSOE and the fact that surveys predicted a week before had Mariano Rajoy from PP as winner. Among other deep impacts from 11M remained the fracture of credibility on information disseminated and the rejection of citizens to speculation, distortion and manipulation of information.
