“Separation and loss. To be parted. To finish something, and to feel sad at its completion. Physical injury is also possible through over-straining one’s strength. This is not the time to undertake strenuous physical activities. (Bernadette Brady “The Eagle and the Lark”)
Transiting Saturn 18 Leo
Bill Clinton Moon 20 Taurus (T-Saturn in square by less than a degree and a half)
ABC Mars 20 Taurus (T-Saturn in square by less than a degree and a half)
Not good aspects for either party to come out of this ahead or looking good. This is similar to the Reagan Documentary CBS was going to run a few years ago with the GOP throwing a fit about the inaccuracies and that it had to be removed from their line up. It was removed and sold to Showtime. The famous or infamous documentaries of historical figures and events are rife with “creative license.” Outside of WWII, (including FDR, Churchill, all the famous Generals, Hitler, Germany) we have a plethora of documentaries involving the Kennedys, (heck, Ted Kennedy is so accustomed to swallowing the family pride and reputation he doesn’t even try to rebuke, neither does the Royal Family) Nixon, Iran/Contra, Princess Diana, and a host of others. I suspect the documentaries regarding the Kennedys rival WWII. But today history and the lies of history move on and we have the beginning of the 9/11 made for TV “Movietones” reminiscent of the 10 minute “news shows” that were shown before a movie began, I found out 35 years later that those weren’t accurate either.
The fact that there was such an outcry over “The Path to 9/11” and the “creative license” taken by the writers and director is evidence that our emotions are still raw and we don’t believe we know what happened or who was to blame. We are not ready for a “General George Custer” whitewash of the evidence. We continue to be divided and we are moving toward demanding the truth, the unvarnished truth from those who would inform and lead us, plus it’s ridiculous to continue blaming Clinton for absolutely everything in the Bush Administration. It’s so ridiculous that I expect to hear any day now that Clinton personally started the Civil War and we are still a nation divided.
Oh, the Eclipse? That falls in a square to ABC’s Venus, it may not be a checkmate, but it is certainly “check” from Clinton to ABC and we are waiting for the checkmate http://www.calendarlive.com/tv/cl-wk-channel7sep07,0,6155461.story?coll=cl-tv-features
One of the ways I like to explain Astrology is the “rotation of Planets around the earth, and they act kind of like a broom; picking up dust from this spot and depositing it in another spot, only to have the wind pick it up and swirl it to another place altogether” As I’ve said many times, energy never leaves the planet, it doesn’t increase or decrease no matter how many people are born or how many die. No matter how many buildings go up or how many come down. It’s still the same amount of energy, the same amount of dust. But like dust can morph into solid dirt, energy too morphs and changes. And the very act of ending something changes the outcomes of the energy.
It’s to these “outcomes” I want to address and when I think the “outcomes” of the United States shifted. The planning started long before the act but the act which set some of our experiences today was primed on November 22, 1963 when John Fitzgerald Kennedy was shot down in Dealey Plaza. For over 40 years the public has focused on “who” killed JFK even the Warren Commission focused on “who.” The question is really “why”? What changed by his death and what new agenda was put in its place?
There are no end of suspects as to “who” the Kennedy brothers had a ton of enemies inside and outside the government. One of the more intriguing potential enemies was Prescott Bush who was instrumental in pairing up Eisenhower and Nixon as a team, even though Eisenhower didn’t like or want Nixon as his Vice President. Bush was also instrumental in the 1960 Nixon campaign, which he was positive Nixon would win. Nixon had been groomed and selected by the Tri-lateral Commission to be President, and no one thought in 1960 that America would elect a Catholic to the highest office in the land. Imagine their shock and disappointment. But there were other “who” candidates and if you’re interested Mary Ferrell Foundation is the repository of all things related to JFK. Her foundation is internationally considered the leading experts of the Kennedy assassination, before and after. http://www.maryferrell.org/wiki/index.php/Main_Page
The “whys,” are also varied possibilities; we have a “GOP” faction who hated Kennedy for what they saw as stealing the election. Lyndon Johnson and a Texas cabal also hated them and Lyndon too wanted to be President. The Cubans who thought Kennedy was trying to kill Castro, the Mafia who Bobby had taken on, Hoover and the FBI, the Kennedy’s were getting ready to force Hoover’s retirement (two days after the assassination Johnson gave Hoover a lifetime appointment) The CIA, because they didn’t get any help from JFK to invade Cuba and they went ahead with it anyway and many of them were killed. The Federal Reserve Bankers, Kennedy was in the process of marginalizing them as a power within the US, you see, there wasn’t a lack of people or groups who wanted JFK dead, in order to set another agenda for the US in place and the Kennedy brothers were in the way of that agenda. For all their personal flaws they truly believed in an honest America for all, a peace and prosperity for all and an end to the war in Vietnam. They were poised to extend the far reaching agenda of FDR for the people.
Every person who has ever been under scrutiny for the assassination, HL Hunt, G. Gordon Liddy, George HW Bush (Prescott’s Son) Hoover, a handful of Cubans, Johnson, Ford, Nixon, and several other small players then who are big players now. Four of those men have been president and all the others have been in the Nixon, Ford, Johnson, Bush administrations. They were all mentioned as involved in the Iran/Contra affair, the Cubans were caught in Watergate and those who are left are in today’s administration.
I wanted to set up just a pinch of the issues at the time in order to lay out the astrological map of then and now and how the planets have swept the “dust” of 1963 around to the “dirt” of today and the potential of that “dirt” being broken up into smaller bits of manageable particles of dust once again.
In the Assassination Chart
Saturn @ 17 degrees Aquarius
Neptune @ 15 degrees Scorpio
Mars and Venus were at 21 Sagittarius in opposition to the US Mars and square the US Neptune
Mercury was in a square to Uranus setting up a T-square to US Uranus
Progressed Jupiter now squares the natal North Node.
This was the last time Saturn and Neptune aspected each other in fixed signs (until now)
And Neptune has progressed to 17 degrees Scorpio (within three minutes of an exact square to the 1963 Saturn) Transiting Jupiter is about to conjunct the 15 degree Scorpio Neptune and tonight’s Eclipse passed over the 1963 Pluto in the 7th house.
In the JFK Natal Chart progressed Mercury is conjunct Mars and Venus in the Assassination Chart.
What does all this mean for us today? The day (August 31) transiting Saturn and Neptune opposed (the first time to aspect in fixed signs in 43 years) with Neptune exactly on the spot Saturn was in 1963 and Saturn opposing the same degree it occupied in 1963 we heard about the British Film Company who was making a TV movie about GWB being assassinated, a perfect metaphor for GWB and this administration. Just as the assassination of JFK ended his administration and the plans that administration tried to put into place, it looks like metaphorically, the plans begun by those taking advantage of the energy shift around JFK are almost at an end as the energy gets ready to shift again.
The last time there was a Saros Series corresponding eclipse at 8 South was in 1988 when GHWB was elected President, this 8 South ends that reign and a new “agenda” is being developed now. George W. Bush is not actually being assassinated (and that’s a good thing) but the astro message of the party being over looks pretty clear. That was the “why” Kennedy was killed, to destroy his agenda because it stood in the way of theirs; and now it’s their turn to lose the ground under their feet.
It won’t happen overnight, however the signals of a new consciousness, a moving up and out of this muck are already strengthening.
The very end of an era and the very beginning look exactly alike, both are at the bottom, but the beginning, while chaotic is moving up.
1963 Commencement Address to American University by John F. Kennedy
The most important topic on earth is peace. What kind of a peace do I mean? And what kind of a peace do we seek? The kind of peace that makes life on earth worth living, the kind that permits men and nations to grow and hope and build a better life for their children. Not merely peace for Americans, but peace for all men and women. Not merely peace for our time but for all time. For in the final analysis, our most basic common link is that we all inhabit this small planet, we all breath the same air, we all cherish our children’s future, and we are all mortal.
I don’t know how we got from the JFK vision and his ability to articulate his ability to see what we could aspire toward with what we have now, but I do know the destruction of that vision started on 11/22/1963 and the “replaced” hallucination has nearly run its astrological energy course.
It's too bad that vision of peace and connectedness for all was snuffed out, but it's out there, the energy is out there swirling around like dust balls waiting to be called forth once again for humanity.
