The planet Mars, named after the Roman god of war, is known astrologically as "The Bringer Of War" . Many stories have been written about Mars by authors like Edgar Rice Burroughs, Ray Bradbury, and H.G. Wells, to name a few.
On Sunday, October 30, Mars' path will be the closest to Earth in years as it comes within 69 million km. About two years ago, on August 27, 2003, Mars was 56 million km from Earth, the closest it's been in recorded history. Next time Mars will come this close will be in 2018.
Others have written about the significance of Mars' proximity to Earth and current events. Interestingly, this time it is occurring very close to Halloween, which serves as an astronomical holiday of sorts. Halloween is a cross-quarter date which sits between an equinox and a solstice:
Long ago, "the Celts of the British Isles used cross-quarter days to mark the beginnings of seasons," says John Mosley of the Griffith Observatory in Los Angeles. "Winter began with Halloween, [or as they called it, 'Samhain']. Halloween marked the transition between summer and winter, light and dark -- and life and death."

Recently, I have noticed excitability in my children and other children. Increased stress in the parents, actions trigerring responses which seem to be ignored, merely adding fuel to the fire. Events in the world are also showing similar signs. A macro representation of our microcosm.
There has been increased tension between Iran and Israel as Iran's president talks of wiping Israel off the map and anti-Israel demonstrations take the streets. Reports of initial movement for military action in Syria. In addition, there exists tension in Washington, specifically the White House, over Special Prosecutor Patrick Fitzgerald's imminent indictments.
There has also been talk about the influence of Mars during the historical Noah's flood, also having occurred around the time of our modern Halloween. Discussions of the fall of Atlantis around the same time.

What does all this mean?
Well, I'll leave you with just a few snippets of a scary Halloween tale ...
During the final days of the Great Battle Between Good and Evil, the receding armies of the Mad Magician, Supreme Leader of the Dark Side, left behind agents in the formerly occupied lands. The liberating armies enclosed the Evil Doers from two sides, the East and the West. Although these two groups were Allies against the Darkness that was now surrendering, having been temporarily thrown together to fight a common enemy, they had themselves longstanding differences, differences that would soon come to the fore as the common threat was vanquished.
Those of the West, known by the name of Atlantis, decided it would be strategically advantageous to make an alliance with the former members of the Evil Empire against the new "Threat from the East." Thus, after the war, rather than arresting and bringing to trial the former Evil Doers who remained in the West, the Leaders of Atlantis made peace with them and integrated them into their intelligence system.
These men and woman were known as the "Stay-Behinds."
