ǂKágára, South African mythology for (469705) 2005 EF298

On June 16, 2021, the object (469705) 2005 EF298 and its moon, were officially named ǂKágára and ǃHãunu, respectively.

 

"In the mythology of the ǀXam people of the Karoo region of southern Africa, ǂKágára  and ǃHãunu fought an epic battle in the east using thunder and lightning, producing mountainous clouds and rain. The conflict was over ǂKáágára returning his younger sister, ǃHãunu's wife, to their parents. [The primary is being named  ǂKágára and the satellite is being named ǃHãunu.]" [Ref: WGSBN Bulletin 1, #3] 

 

The story, recorded in the 19th century in the now extinct ǀXam language of South Africa, tells the dispute between ǂKágára and his brother-in-law ǃHãunu. When ǂKágára came to fetch his sister and take her to their parents' house, ǃHãunu chased them and began to throw lightning at ǂKá̦gára, but ǂKá̦gára was unhurt and one of the rays bounced backwards, reaching ǃHãunu, who died slowly amidst the shaking of thunder.

James Marsden (Straw Dogs, 2011)

 

The object ǂKágára can solve the difficulties faced, by intuitively knowing the factors that cause blockage and how to deactivate or activate it, causing a sudden change of conditions (2:7 resonance with Uranus). And for that, ǂKágára has the ability to hide personal aspects that may interfere in the process (1:2 resonance with Neptune) and the ability to redefine the situation based on unequivocal evidence (11:5 resonance with Eris). 

 

James Marsden, actor of the movie "Straw Dogs" (2011), has ǂKágára in Cancer (low point) (6th Moon-Node House), trine Pallas in Scorpio (low point) (2nd Moon-Node House) [which it is in square with the Crossing Axis of Age Progressions (Signs Horoscope) in the signs Leo/Aquarius]; and (bi)novile Mercury in Libra (3rd Moon-Node House).

 

Giovanni Ribisi, actor of the movie "Flight of the Phoenix" (2004), has ǂKágára in Cancer (5th Moon-Node House), near Saturn, in (bi)novile@80º with Pluto in Libra (3er Moon-Node House, cusp).

 

Denzel Washington, actor of the movie "Déjà vu" (2006), has ǂKágára in Gemini (7th Moon-Node House), in (cuadra)novile@160º with the Black Moon in Sagittarius (2nd Moon-Node House, cusp).
