When you combine the Wounded Healer (Chiron) with the planet that inspires devotion and illusion (Neptune), you often get mysterious illnesses among other things. Chiron and Neptune are sitting on Jay Leno's ascendant and induced a mysterious illness yesterday, and now there is news of a mysterious new strain of the swine flu, a never-before seen mixture of swine, bird and human flu viruses.
A conspiracy theorist by nature, I am always a bit suspicious of new flu viruses since we all know that flu bugs are stored in labs all over the world, and then there's the matter of the epidemic of dead microbiologists. But whenever we are dealing with Chiron, there's a sense that unresolved psychic debris is coming to the surface in physical form where it disturbs the natural balance of the body's ecology, and that is true for a society as well.
There's also news of a mysterious respiratory illness that has surfaced in Mexico but appears to be affecting mostly Canadians, and a mystery illness has swept a high school in Westchester County New York.
Whenever Chiron is activated it's a good time to try to bring the body, mind and spirit into balance. That is as true on a cultural level as it is for the individual!

Have you already got this data Lynn?
According to Wiki:
The first announcement of the outbreak was broadcast live in Mexico on April 23 at around 11 pm.
This is seriously weird stuff and I'm not much of a believer of conspiracies. [figure most humans are too darn self-involved and lazy]
Chiron, Neptune and Jupiter are going to be bringing us more of this. Good explanation, Lynn. Thanks! :-0
Thanks Neith and Kathryn - I don't know how much deeper I'll get into this particular issue. It depends on how much weirdness we see. :)
In 1918 Saturn was conjunct Neptune during the serious flu outbreak with the same name..though not the same. Thought it was worth mentioning. There are patterns worth noting.
There have so far been two peaks in the number of reported cases of swine flu. They match up pretty well with the first two Jupiter Neptune conjunctions. There is a link to the graph in my article here: http://funkastrology.co.uk/index.php?p=1_11_Swine-Flu-Astrology
