In keeping with my nautical theme from Mutiny on the Bounty and “Mister Christian,” I figure we have a “Mr. Roberts” here in Richard Clarke. Both Doug Roberts and Fletcher Christian dared to stand against their Captain. Both of those Captain’s were petty, selfish, self-centered and borderline insane, and both Captains were getting away with it and being elevated in spite of their obvious limitations to leadership. If you’ve never seen the movie “Mr. Roberts,” I would suggest renting it, with Henry Fonda as Doug Roberts and then think of Richard Clarke.
Over the coming days astrologers and political pundits alike will be falling all over themselves to analyze and predict the impact of Richard Clarke’s book on this White House. We will analyze Natal, Progressions, Fixed Stars, Black Holes, Solar Returns, etc. This is a boon for astrologers. The connections to the US Chart, the Inauguration Chart, the Election Chart, Bush chart, oh my gosh what a wonderful mine field for astrologers. We will be having a hay day. Not necessary to dig too far for articles and comments, the connections are staring at us.
Pundits will analyze, from partisan politics, his purpose, his truth, his personality, his quarks, his life-style, his attitudes. Did he mean what he said? Was he ‘grandstanding’ in his apology to the families? Is he just trying to sell his book? (Well duh, that’s why people write books,) Is he lying, is he bitter, is he trying to get even? There continues to be a feeding frenzy on the bones of Mr. Clarke. But our present day Mr. Roberts has already thrown the Captain’s plant overboard and it’s now swimming in the sea with its leaves going this way and that. The Democrats will be wondering if he's from heaven and the Republicans will wonder if he's from hell.
Richard Clarke (born 10.30.1950 at 5:45pm, in Cambridge, MA.) when I looked at his chart for the next year I wondered if the WH knew how to spell “holy s…” It’s easy to see how this man rose from obscurity to 15, 20 or 45 minutes of fame. Uranus went over a conjunction to his Jupiter at 27 degrees Aquarius in the 10th House, when he first gave his book to the White House for a vetting process. He said they took out some “good stuff” but it would seem that they didn’t take out enough. Uranus Conjunct Jupiter by transit or progression is a one time, big time good luck aspect.
Mr. Clarke’s Moon is at 2 degrees Cancer in a trine to a 3-degree Scorpio Venus, and this is the best part, Progressed Jupiter at 3 degrees Pisces has formed a grand protecting trine to his Cancer and Venus, with transiting Uranus setting all that off back and forth, back and forth right on up to December of 2005. Transiting Uranus will then keep forming that trine to first his Mercury, then his Sun, then his Uranus, in two years Jupiter will Conjunct his Moon, we should all be so lucky as Mr. Clarke over the next two or three years.
Mr. Clark’s Moon Conjuncts the US Venus, his Venus trines the US Venus, his Mercury and Sun trine the US Jupiter, his Jupiter conjuncts the US Moon the connections simply go on and on, it's amazing.
Richard Clarke was absolutely sincere when he apologized to the families of 9/11. He truly loves this country and would do anything to protect the people of the United States. He’s not faking it and he has never taken his loyalty to the country for granted. He loves the United States of America and her people.
His Natal Saturn at 28 Virgo conjuncts his Natal South Node at 27 Virgo, squaring a 25 degree Sagittarius Mars, with the nodal aspect he feels he has a destiny to fulfill and would be obsessed to fulfill that destiny. Because his Saturn is on the South Node there is a Karmic fulfillment for which he feels a responsibility. Again, he feels a commitment of loyalty to the United States with that Saturn and the nodes in aspect to the US Pluto. His soul or spirit chart shows he came back to earth to do that exact thing.
The square from Saturn to Mars, and Saturn in a trine to the US Pluto shows a person that is hard driven (not someone you would want to work for, that's for sure) doesn't suffer fools lightly, has an over zealous concept of what's right and doesn't blame others for his mistakes. The gods have a sense of humor when picking their messengers.
Mr. Clarke has another duty beside the US and that duty is to George W. Bush and to let him know he has gone too far and misused the power of the Presidency. His actions could be forcing GWB into a healing of the wounds this administration opened in the US and the rest of the world. Bush himself kept saying over and over that he was a "uniter not a divider." Now he will have to put his money where his mouth is or he doesn't get to continue. Clarke rang his bell.
I am trying to say this with as much drama as possible because the importance of it cannot be underestimated, Richard Clarke’s Chiron is in an applying Conjunction to GWB’s South Node, and Pluto has set off that 19/20 degree Sagittarius, Pluto is right now kissing up to GWB’s South Node, Clarke’s Chiron, and the duel Black Holes of Inanna (17/18 Sag) and Ereshkigal (18/19 Sag.)
The importance of Pluto conjoining these sisters, Inanna and Ereshkigal, “could impel a massive healing of the right brain function, and a return to the consciousness of the circle as opposed to linear predominance” (The Black Hole Book by Alex Miller-Mignone) What would the hard driving, obsessive, a man’s man, Richard Clarke have to do with this? He has split open the dialogue of “what are we doing in this country.” Richard Clarke himself has several planets on Black Holes, (there is his assured fame or infamy.)
We don’t all hear it yet, and George Bush and Richard Clarke sure don’t know it yet, but Mr. Clarke is singing “We are Fam i ly,” and one of our family members is sick and projecting it out onto the world. With Clarke’s Chiron, Bush’s South Node opposing his Uranus, the Inaugural Moon and transiting Pluto setting it off, and I should mention that Clarke’s progressed Moon is at 19 degrees Gemini; we are about to have an epiphany. No wonder the White House has been on every possible talk venue. No wonder the mainstream media has their shorts in a bunch this last week.
The collective heads of Ereshkigal (the underworld) have just received a sub-conscious message of catastrophe heading their way. They didn’t react this forcefully or rapidly on the day of 9/11. (Remember we act consciously on our sub-conscious and it’s the sub-conscious of the White House responding)
It’s been said that Richard Clarke will bring down someone with his revelations. Already on the web people are wondering if it will be Dr. Rice, the neo-cons, Powell, Cheney, no this arrow has been aimed directly at the heart of this administration and the arrow didn’t miss its mark.
There is more coming that will just underscore all that Richard Clarke has said and will say in the future. When he testified, Mercury, the messenger, was in a trine to a stationary retrograde Pluto, his words will not be forgotten. It doesn’t matter what the polls say, the pundits say, the Commission says, the White House, the Congress, his words will not go away.
Dr. Rice and perhaps Bush and Cheney will be testifying on a Mercury Retrograde, not a positive sign for them, Pluto is already retrograde as is Jupiter. Uranus isn’t, it just keeps moving along in a trine to all Mr. Clarke’s Cancer and Scorpio planets. Saturn in Cancer will be kind to him; it simply strengthens the transiting Grand Trine. The eclipse on April 19th has Mars at 18 Gemini close to a Conjunction to Mr. Bush’s Uranus, he isn’t going to be happy with what he is seeing, feeling and what other people are doing.
In 1957 a Dick Clark wound up a generation with the American Bandstand and now another Richard Clarke is one of the artists bringing the music back to Americans.
There’s tons more but I think Isabelle is going to do some synestry between Clarke and Rice and Bush, I am sure Nancy and Morgana will have something terrific. There is so much, just so much and it’s all rich. You can all look forward to some great articles.
Do not look for everything to suddenly be perfect and the way we think we want things to happen, because there is still much to be done with this country, still much to experience and much to be learned but Richard Clarke has unwittingly been our messenger that authenticity and victory is assured.
PS I cannot resist and then I will leave this alone, Richard Clarke's Jupiter is at 27'40" Aquarius, and yes it does conjunct the US Moon and our progressed Mercury but it also sits atop black hole Hecate. Hecate represents the Triple Goddess. Hecate is a member of DS 28, the largest Deep Space Shield which we don't know a lot about. Again quoted from Alex Miller-Mignone's Book.
