After the basketball game, here in the east I waited for the Clarke interview on 60 minutes. Looking up at the clock I noticed the exact time Clarke painted his darkest description of Bush and company. I wanted to make note of the time because I thought to myself ‘this tolls the death knell for the Bush Administration‘. Time will tell and its only my opinion, but I wanted to see what the chart looked like astrologically for that moment.
I remember the exact time more than I remember exactly what Clarke said on 60 minutes, but it doesn’t matter, because he said so much. Richard Clarke could have been saying ‘Rumsfeld said there aren’t any good targets in Afghanistan but there are plenty of good targets in Iraq’ or when he said ‘the president dragged me into a room with other people and said find out whether Iraq did this he never said make it up but I was left in no doubt that he (Bush) wanted me to say Saddam did this and I felt intimidated by him’ or it could have been when Clarke said Bush would launch his dogs on him but he felt he needed to tell the truth no matter what. It also could have been when Clarke said ‘invading Iraq to fight terrorism has only diverted attention, time, money and resources away from the real terrorist issues‘. So it could have been all or any of the above.
But I wanted to see the chart for myself since I know if astrology has any merit to it, the basics will be there in the chart for the moment an event takes place. The chart itself will tell the story.
The chart for the time I looked at on my clock was 7:23 p.m. The chart in question has a ascendant (first house) of 14 degrees of Libra, the same ascendant of the September 11th plane attack on the World Trade Center.
The minute I saw that I was amazed, I say it myself. The Moon was in 14 degrees of Aries directly across from the first house, straddling the cusp of the seventh house of open enemies and conjunct Mercury, also in Aries, and at 17 degrees not retrograde yet.
The third house, the house of communication, has a cusp of 13 degrees of Sagittarius, which would put it directly on the ascendant of the U.S. chart, using the Sibly time of 5:10 p.m. on July 4, 1776, Philadelphia, PA.
Mercury in Aries tells the truth hard, fast and bluntly. The Moon in Aries feels the truth hard, fast and bluntly. They both were in alignment this day, this moment. Pluto was in the third house of communication and news in Sagittarius, also a big truth teller. Pluto uncovers lies and deceit, and scurries in the dark corridors and recesses of our lives. The Aries Moon at 14 degrees is trining this third house cusp, making it hard to deny the impact Clarke’s words will have in the upcoming days and weeks.
A word about Mars. Mars has just entered Gemini, the planet of communication and newspapers and yes TV interviews. It is at 0 degrees, the beginning of the trek it will make through the sign. 0 degrees is the beginning of something, it’s the start of it.
The Full Moon on April 5th is at 16 degrees of Libra, right on this ascendant. I don’t think this is the end of the matter by any means. The Sun at 16 Aries will conjunct this interview's Moon, and trine the third house cusp. I personally believe this is the beginning of the end of the Bush Administration. I think this interview will be played over and over again, and the truth this time will not be so easy to hide by Bush and company, as in previous years.
Even if this particular interview is passed over, I think more and more news stories will begin to came to light, and even if Bush temporarily manages to rise up in the polls, I think by Election time, he will be done for. His Saturn Return this summer, and his transits, all speak to this fact.
I don't think all the American people are going to fall for his line of deceit that much longer. Too many people are speaking out. Trust a Sag/Gemini bunch of transits to help the way along, and with both Mars and Venus soon to be in Gemini, I think this is going to happen faster and more bluntly than people think.
Good News!
