In the US chart (Silby) Solar Arc Mercury the Messenger stands at 8 degrees and 32 minutes in Pisces. Slowly it is inching it's way toward the US 8'55"
Gemini Uranus ruled by Mercury. Also in orb is George W. Bush's Mars in Virgo (also ruled by Mercury) and his progressed Sun, as well as the progressed Sun in the Republican Party's chart at 9 degrees Sagittarius, at their mid heaven. I think we can probably look for shocking leaks to GWB and the Republican's secrets which affect the people of the United States, for several months to come, In fact the Republican Party's natal Saturn stands at 10 degrees Gemini, the revelations are going to be quite painful for them, and will make GWB madder than one could imagine. A Solar Arc Mercury moves so slowly, the shocks should hit every few weeks for at least a year, then the Republican Party and GWB will spend the rest of their time dealing with, and trying to convince an unconvinced Nation of their integrity. While this aspect in no way impacts the Democrats, it would be well for them to take this time and clean up their own ranks, because the Messenger of Karma eventually comes to everyone.
For "we the people" in the United States, we will be given a steady stream of stunning and shocking revelations about our Government, the leaders we elect, and the folly of abdicating our responsibility to people whom we ask less information from than we do those applying for entry level jobs. There will be a lot of work for all of us as we grapple with more knowledge of corruption than we have ever known before.
