Yes, the danger must be growing, For the rowers keep on rowing,
And they're certainly not showing, Any signs that they are slowing!
(Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory)
“And they’re certainly not showing any signs that they are slowing.” This administration is certainly not showing signs of slowing their march toward totalitarianism and fascism and the “dangers must be growing, for the rowers keep on rowing.” And we, the people are rowing as fast as we can. When one is quiet, very quiet, stepping away from the din of the “white noise” and the smoke and mirrors thrown in our way, things become a bit clearer and the wheels are about to come off.
Once again, I am drawing comparisons from Willie Wonka and the Chocolate Factory for that story represents all we are observing within the context of today’s events. The little girl who never listened to anyone and chewed gum she was told not to chew and she blew up into a giant blueberry and had to be “juiced.” The gluttonous little boy, trying to slurp up as much out of the chocolate river, fell in and was sucked up into the chocolate tube; he was almost too fat to be retrieved. Another little boy, a wanna be cowboy, living a life through TV and not living life, turned into electronic pixels floating in the air because he wanted to be a part of the TV. My favorite was greedy little Victoria, used to having everything and used to having her own way, trying to steal the goose who laid the golden egg and was thrown down the chute for “bad eggs.”
But it’s Charlie who was the honest and sincere one, and even he could not help succumbing to the magic of Willie Wonka’s candy inventions. In spite of being warned, Charlie drank the fizzy water. As he filled with bubbles, he and his grandfather quickly rose toward the giant fans in the ceiling which threatened to chop them in half, only by expelling very loud belches were they able to float downward toward the floor. Enter Patrick Fitzgerald.
Mr. Fitzgerald has been laboring under the “bubbles’ of the White House as Neptune joined his Venus, possibly clouding his view of the presidency and clouding his view of this investigation. The President of the United States is different than the “presidency,” and oft times, under Neptune, we confuse them as one in this country. That confusion last reigned during the Iran/Contra affair when the country gave Ronald Reagan a pass on the whole criminal mess as Neptune opposed the US Venus/Jupiter conjunction in Cancer. As a country, with the Nixon resignation fresh in our mind, we confused the man in office with the “office,” and did not demand accountability of the man holding the “office.” It’s always Neptune contacts to the US chart or a person’s chart that glosses over the waving flags that say “this is a mistake, beware.” We so fall into illusion that we give our power away to whoever or whatever. Neptune is the planet that is responsible for the saying “move along, nothing to see here,” and we move as if in a fog. When the aspect finally moves away and the bubbles clear, we can see that all is not what we thought. So it is with our “Charlie” Patrick Fitzgerald and his clearing will have profound effects on the US as Neptune also moves from the inconjunct to the US Sun.
We don’t know exactly what he is doing or who he might be doing it to, but Neptune finally moves away from his Venus the end of November, 1st of December, and he will begin to see the clear and present danger in weeding his way through the Libby/Rove/Cheney/Bush/Hannah/Wurmser etc mess. As he awakens from his illusion of “justice for all,” he might easily begin playing Hardball by January.
There is a sense of implosion from within, a scattered energy and the time period around the week of January 15th (give or take a few of days) is one of the most dangerous and apprehensive periods of time in 2006, for the office of the presidency of this country, as a grand fixed square involving the Moon, Mars, Jupiter and Neptune sets off the 1999 Grand Fixed Eclipse Square, and sets up a stress aspect to the mid-heaven of the US Presidency Chart. (Washington’s Inauguration – 04/30/1789 12:15 pm, New York, New York) January’s Grand Cross will also activate a NN/SN, Moon, and Pluto T-square in the chart of the Republicans just as the 1999 eclipse started their present journey, this Grand Square will rock their world.
Throughout history there have always been a group of people who believed they were entitled to it ALL. They have burned women at the stake, threw them into mental institutions on a whim, turning a whole groups of people into slaves to put more free money and power into their coffers. I don’t know exactly what astrological characteristics they have had in common over at least the last 2,000 years, to create their belief in their superiority. Neither do I know what astrological characteristics the populace has in common to have let them maintain their illusions of superiority. Saturn, Uranus, Neptune, Pluto, Black Holes, Fixed Stars and Asteroids keep going around the Zodiac (well not Fixed Stars) elevating and de-elevating every group of people, the rich, the poor, the super-rich and the super-poor. There are times that we change social positions and we call that “good luck” or “bad luck,” but the attitudes money and power bring or take away remain the same, a sense of superiority or inferiority and/or combination of the two. One will create problems for the other.
The Christian and other Religious Movement, Civil Rights, Women’s Rights, Children’s Rights or any variations of the same themes are the periods of time when the “planets” have brought the average person to the top of the value wheel. I am sure you can name the times, including now, that brings the “elite’ to the top, but the wheel does turn and I cannot find a single period of time in history when the wheel didn’t turn. Will it always be the rich against the poor or the poor against the rich? There has never been a proper balance in history; there has never been an even playing field in this country or any other. Society is and has been addicted to the expression of social order with winners and losers.
Given the seeming lust and enjoyment men and now women have toward torture and killing, it would appear we are all too easily led down whatever path money or power take us, and yet with all the disasters around us and all the disasters that might be coming the world’s way, I believe we are on the dawn of a new age, a new consciousness. The “field” seems to be blank right now, with no direction to go. Some have already shifted into another consciousness many others are ready. The important thing to remember is the “field of the future is blank” and it’s ready for each one of us to write our future upon that field and thus the future of society.
This is what Neptune has brought to us. In 2000, when Neptune went over the South Node for the US, and basically started the process of washing away all that came before Neptune’s passage. (the last time Neptune was on the US SN the concept of Fascism was brought to our shores through the Illuminati and Skull and Bones. Pluto moving past the 1st house cusp of the US, supported the movement away from our past and into the future. What we are witnessing with this daily obscene lies and greed and self-righteousness is the past and cannot support itself much beyond 2012, if that long.
In the Inaugural Chart for 2001 (Jan. 20, 2001, 12:03pm, Washington) Mars was conjunct the North Node and Jupiter for the Republicans, an indication of a new start, new opportunities for them. Considering the fact that their NN opposed their Pluto and squared their Moon, the desire to take all they could get was overwhelming. Sadly they did not use their Pluto to build something for the greater good of all. Now T-Mars is conjunct their South Node, going back and forth in its retrograde path and conjunct their Pluto, with T-Neptune squaring it all, the potential of all the present day GOP efforts being washed away is great.
They’ve become tiresome, these people who would lead us. Their hypocrisy, their lies, their greed, their “million dollar” Congress, is tiresome. Even the Late Night jokes have kind of a stench, as if the obscenity of them isn’t funny while people die because of them. The mood in the country has changed.
In January of 2005 I said that Congress, both parties, don’t understand how angry people are out here, I said that Ohio wasn’t done (and it isn’t), this spring finds the state rocking with scandal beyond their imagination. Last month I said that Patrick Fitzgerald in one way or another has shined a huge spotlight on the corruption and slime that have taken over this government and I am sad to say the corruption extends into the Democratic Party. Corruption has become a political way of life for the parties, the media, the hanger-on’s. They don’t really know how to do business any other way. Look for the few honest and good men to speak out and continue to speak out, the rest will try to stay in the shadows. I am wondering when Hillary will be given the go-ahead by the DLC and her husband to suddenly see this war as wrong. Should be soon, or she will be the only Democrat and maybe Republican to side with this administration on the war.
January 15, 2006 won’t just be dangerous for the “presidency” it will be a dangerous time around the world and leave the world with much to think about. In the US, we are not tired of this administration, we are over this administration. We are over the fear and most important we no longer trust them. No more than 30 percent would trust them with their health, their money, their safety. Katrina took care of that and we will never “go home” again to this administration.
Scooter Libby – May or may not serve jail time for the Plame outing, no matter how romantic a proposition that might be for him but his reputation will be completely destroyed. Saturn will keep doing a number on him right on through to spring. He won’t turn or “flip” at least not on Dick Cheney, but he might on Karl Rove.
Karl Rove – Will be indicted, if not for Plame for Abramhoff, as will Hastert, Delay, Reed, and a host of others. He loses his “political genius” status. In time, in a few years Karl Rove will lose everything.
Dick Cheney – Will either resign because of poor health (or to spend more time with his family) or his health will truly be so poor he will have to resign.
George Bush – Will not be able to raise his “political capital” again. Impeachment, if there is any impeachment, will come after 2006. George Bush will either clean house or will withdraw more and more into his own self-made prison. There is a potential for a public meltdown in 2006.
Elections – lots of new faces as candidates this year and they could win, 2006 would be the year for political upsets in the US.
DNC – will have to move away from the DLC or the present day Democrats don’t have a chance. The DLC’s idea of the “center” hasn’t changed since 1992 and the “center” has changed. What constitutes a “moderate” has changed as they have seen their tax dollars erode to the war, and their “rights” erode away to a Patriots Act they didn’t choose. They want the borders closed, fraud investigated, money returned etc. They aren’t the same 1992 “center.”
Iraq – Gets worse and will be George Bush’s waterloo just as it was Saddam’s.
Syria – Next war but not until next spring or fall, funny how Islam fanatics attacked Islamists in Jordon – hummmmm.
Scandals – They just keep coming and people keep moving further and further away from Washington, trying to keep their lives going.
Hillary – I do not think she will get the “nod” to run in 2008. She could soon (by summer) have something happen to her that makes running impossible. Some kind of loss or emotional pain is on her horizon.
US – Chaos will reign at least until spring, making sure we are really sick and tired of all this as Uranus lines up for it’s last square to the US natal Uranus in February, and T-Mars conjuncts a few days later. Expect the unexpected and stay centered with your family and friends. Keep busy with your own picture of the world, picture corruption gone. I don’t think the US will be attacked in a major way, at least not after January, but I do think the flu season will be rough.
Right Wing Christians – will continue to lose ground as the religious spokespeople for the world. Pluto coming to the Galactic Center will take care of that one. I don’t know if Pat Robertson or James Dodson loses their constituency (they will lose some) but they become more and more ridiculous figures.
Politicians – Politicians will be scrambling to find out what the people want, because they don’t really know.
For fun watch Grover Norquist, Tom Delay, Bill Frist, Jack Abramhoff (and all the lives he has touched) the players in this little game of “cool and corrupt” are on the table, look for new names and some familiar oldies.
The play isn’t over, but the curtain is beginning to fall and the audience is becoming ever so bored with the play. It isn’t that they won’t continue to inflict damage on humanity but we are going into a period of time where the shocks will come as we find out everything they’ve done. The sewer that Neptune kept hidden will begin to rise for all to see.
Willie Wonka was a story filled with Piscean and Neptunian imagery; it’s a perfect story here at the end of the Piscean Age, as we watch the worst of Pisces energy spewing out all over the world as Pisces is “gutted’ before a New Age comes forth. Hard as it is to believe that something good can come of something so vile, so destructive as what we’ve witnessed in the last several years, but the opportunity for a different but better America can potentially rise. We are a long way from a bright future in America, but oddly, we are now today closer to the light than the dark. America is coming out of the dark for the first time in over 100 years.
