A break with something, a break with the past, so that we can move onto something new.

A price must be paid, a painful process, before something new happens.

After something bad, comes something new, some new expansion of consciousness.

He have several key phrases to describe Quaoar’s action: The highly respected astrologer, Jonathan Dunn, observed that, “Quaoar seems to signify creation, procreation, demanding, trying experiences, being placed under a microscope, viewing less attractive aspects, flaws or complexities, scientific activities also, questioning, constructing, clarifying, revealing, creating abstract mental models, a spirit of discovery, the big picture.”Ĭonsidering that Quaoar was at 10° Sagittarius (2002-03, although moving about 1° per year) opposing my Moon at the time of my mother’s death, I was very interested in what Aleksandar had to say. I belong to the Centaurs Yahoo List so I was familiar with Quaoar as a Kuiper Belt Object but I could not relate to any of the interpretations suggested on this E-List. I attended a lecture on Quaoar given by the president of the Yugoslavia Astrological Association, Aleksandar Imsiragic. In March 2003, I attended the Belgrad (Serbia) Astrological Congress, at which I was one of the speakers. This website has a lot of the information that I have given here but with an astrological perspective. This ephemeris can be accessed at this astrological website. Less than a day after Quaoar’s discovery, a Swiss Ephemeris program was developed to calculate its position from 1900-2036. In 2006, NASA plans to launch a spacecraft to study Pluto and other Kuiper Belt Objects. Quaoar takes 288 years to orbit our Sun and its orbit is nearly circular, with its tilt being only 8% yet Pluto’s tilt is 20%! While Quaoar is 42 AU away from Earth (1 astronomical unit is the distance between the Earth and the Sun), this object is so bright that, within a month of discovery, the astronomers were able to trace Quaoar’s position back 2 decades in their survey data, the earliest being 1982! Even an advanced amateur astronomer could have spotted it. When Pluto was discovered in 1930, it was considered too small to exert such a pull- the search continues. It was assumed that another planet was pulling it off course. When Neptune was discovered in 1846, its orbit differed markedly from astronomers’ calculations.

Quaoar is not considered to be Planet X or Transpluto. Compared to other solar system bodies, Quaoar’s diameter is 800 miles while Pluto is 1400 miles and our own Moon is 2100 miles. More about the Tongva people can be accessed at: Quaoar is about the size of Pluto’s Moon, Charon. It was named QUAOAR (pronounced KWAH-o-wahr) for the Creation Force of the Tongva tribe, the original inhabitants of the Los Angeles Basin, sometimes called the San Gabrielino Native Americans.

On June 4, 2002, at 5:41:40 Greenwich Time, Chad Trujillo and Mike Brown at Caltech, operating the ground-based Oschin Telescope, at Palomar, California, discovered the largest Keiper Belt Object ( KBO) since the discovery of Pluto.
