This administration is willing to “distract” us by killing innocent people in other countries in order to carry out the dismantling of this country, and they are getting away with a bloodless coup and the party of “the people” the democrats, enabling them.

Think not? Where is Daddy Bush’s old CIA buddies Osama and Saddam? Not found? Hmmmmm. Lots of people maimed and dead, lots of pipeline and oil in the pockets of the elite, but noooooo evildoers.

It’s easy to become discouraged. Everywhere you look people are sad, angry, and frustrated. Saturn going into Cancer and moving onto the US Venus and Jupiter isn’t going to make it better for the people. No matter how enlightened we might be, we are part and parcel of the people and this government who are also part of “the people.” And we are “raging against the dying of the light.” We are a country that spends more on beauty aids than we do on education. Our awakening will be slow.

If George Bush were gone tomorrow the domestic mess left in his wake will take years to clean up. He isn’t the head of the Hydra and it’s the head, which must be cut off. Before he and his like go the United States will have to clearly see how we have turned the other way and allowed out lives to be slowly (50 years or so) taken over. Frustratingly it is we and those like us that clearly see the Hydra, masses of us do not and it’s them we must stand in front of and inform and wait for those masses to catch up.

In December 2002 in “One Flew Over the Cuckoo’s Nest” I wrote that there was some kind of scandal brewing that they (the Bush Boys) were not paying attention to, and THAT scandal would be public knowledge by May forcing them to spend the rest of the time covering their “butts.” On February 5th, Colin Powell stood up at the UN and lied about the weapons of mass destruction in Iraq. Chiron squared the US Saturn and opposed the US Sun creating a wounding of the foundations of the United States. That knowledge is now public and with a constant drumbeat from the people they will spend their time trying to cover their tracks.

And the Senate? Well when they gave George the go ahead to attack Iraq, Saturn was at 29 degrees Gemini, retrograding, and it is very close to being right smack dab on top of the Fixed Star Menkalinan, a bright yellow star, noted for bringing ruin and disgrace. With Afghanistan and Iraq in such an awful mess, the Senate is indeed hanging their heads over their vote. Kinda of makes them sick to their stomach.

I also said eventually Trent Lott would use a passive aggressive action to “get even” with those that dropped him. Today he did, he slammed the FCC Ruling, which opened the door to “one company, one news source.” Seems the Senate has “ways” of punishing those who would dismiss them and Michael Powell dismissed them.

An update on my Senate statement that they might come to turn on the White House, they are doing just that. The House of Representatives are a conglomerate of people from all walks of life. But the Senate, they have money and they are a brotherhood. They like their Senate perks, the power, the respect and they are being marginalized by this administration and they know it. The Bush Boys are making fools of them all, ignoring them, stepping on their back home constituents, and throwing them to the wolves if it suits their purpose. It doesn’t even matter if they are Democrats or Republicans; they are so much fodder for the Machiavellian Rove and the “mainstream” Senate are about to pull out their big guns.

It’s said that Karl Roves favorite book, read once a year, is “The Prince” by Machiavelli. A book written to hopefully ingratiate himself with the Medici’s, it was considered amoral at the time and still is considered such. The message is basically “do or say whatever it takes to get what you want and win,” and it worked, for a time. It still works today, for a time.

Karl Rove was born Dec. 25, 1950 in Denver. All that Capricorn topped off by a t-square from Mercury to Neptune to the Moon, he becomes the deceiver and the deceived. I wonder if Rove ever read Machiavelli’s later works “The Discourses,” he was either forced or accepted a softening of his stance in “The Prince.” Machiavelli ultimately died a bitter and broken man for he had over-reached himself with the Medici’s, lost their favor and they never trusted him enough to give it back to him.

With his Cardinal T-square at the mid degrees, Karl has about a year or so left to avoid the fate of Machiavelli. The “deceiver and the deceived.” I don’t think he’s smart enough to see the trap he has set for himself. Oh well, many have done it before and ended up on the political dung heap.

We aren’t alone on this planet and it may not be the people of this country who create the stink regarding WMD’s. Robin Cook of England and his party won’t let the issue die, it will be a constant drumbeat with a damaged Blair having to come up with answers he doesn’t have. Tony Blair is likely to find himself in the un-chosen position of enlightening America. The composite chart (a chart combining the energies of two entities) between Blair and the US finds the last eclipse having fallen across Mercury in that chart and squaring the composite Saturn between Blair and Bush. As I have stated before, Blair (05.06.53 6:10am Edinburgh, Scotland) has an extremely difficult 18 months ahead and it is highly unlikely he will make it as a political figure in the UK. In fact I have concerns regarding his health and survival.

In the US Draconic Chart (what the ancients called the Spirit or Soul Chart) the US Sun, our heart is at 5 degrees Pisces. Mars, the warrior coming to its 73,000 Perihelion station at 5 degrees Pisces on Aug. 27/28 2003. Will “the warrior” deliver a blow to our ego, our heart thereby infusing us with our own warrior spirit? Our Draconic Jupiter lies at 29 degrees Aquarius conjoining the progressed US Sun and retrograde Mercury. Uranus will retrograde back over that degree giving us an opportunity to reach out to the world. The majority of US Presidents have been Aquarians and Pisces. George Bush doesn’t actually fit in with the soul of the US; he fits with the part of the US that spends more on beauty than on education, that will become painfully obvious in time, as the spirit of America is either jolted or shamed into an epiphany

Harmonic Concordance (Nov. 8/9, 2003)

While full of interesting possibilities this isn’t the first time there has been the celestial treat of a grand sextile and it always holds the promise of opportunities and certainly this one is no exception. Aside from the possibilities written about by astrologers (and I suggest you read their interpretations) I noticed some pretty fascinating aspects. The first thing I noticed is at the time of the Eclipse the Sun and Moon have already passed the degrees of the other planets contained in the Grand Sextile, suggesting that whatever this relates to has already passed. The other thing I noticed is the Sun and Moon at 16 degrees Taurus/Scorpio aspects the 2001 Inaugural chart Mars by conjunction and opposition, and squares the Inaugural Mercury. With Mercury involved this points to some dramatic and inflammatory information. Eclipses build upon themselves and the noted Grand Fixed Cross Eclipse of Aug. 11, 1999 (massive earthquake in Turkey on this one) has Saturn and Mars at 16 degrees of Taurus and Scorpio. I don’t suggest an earthquake but I do suggest something dramatically unexpected in the United States.

Eclipses are sensitive points that keep on giving. An example of this (and watch your own chart) is the 9 degree Gemini Eclipse of May 31st. The first time that eclipse struck after I was born was May 30, 1946 and it falls across my Saturn, on that day I had an extremely traumatic event that left me with a huge scar on my arm. This same eclipse also fell at 9 degrees Gemini in 1965, 1984 and 2003. Every time there is a Solar Eclipse falling at 9 degrees Gemini, something happens relating to that arm.

Another example is GWB chart, 9 degrees Gemini squares his Mars, he was born just 66 days following the 1946 Eclipse (it also relates to his father’s chart, so something happened with Bush Sr. in May 1946) anyway in April 1984 George had a well reported conversion from drinking to Jesus. In 1965 George was a sophomore at Yale and I expect that’s where his drinking and drugs began in earnest. There is something going on with George this last weekend, a little Vodka, maybe a little beer, something and it relates to his drinking. Perhaps he’s just plain mean and arrogant so often found in a dry drunk.

By the way George Bush’s pre-natal Eclipse falling on his pre-natal New Moon (both important aspects and pointers to a person’s life) is at 6/7 degrees Cancer. Saturn moves there in July. That’s a bummer.

It’s happening folks Neptune is still “bubbling” away shifting and changing the landscape while we are caught up in “smoke and mirrors.” We have been conditioned as a society to look at the “bad news” the drama, the 15 second sound bite and then the moment passes and we are on to something else believing things to be unresolved and getting worse and we are all guilty of this behavior. Don’t lose sight of the objective, no matter what happens, don’t chase the Bush windmills, keep your eye on the Bush Ball and keep writing your Congressmen and newspapers and TV Stations registering your domestic concerns. Neptune is moving off the opposition to Bush’s first house and as our fog lifts, “oh my” his nakedness is out there for the entire world to see.

A hard as they are trying we will “not go gently into the good night but rage rage against the dying of the light.”
