Ouroboros, the Serpent of Light on a Scorpio Moon

Sun, Moon and Mars together in the sign of Scorpio pave the way for momentous change. The primary image for today's Lunar phrase (sic) is the Ouroboros and the symbolic Serpent of LIght. Ouroboros is an ancient alchemy symbol depicting a snake or dragon [DNA] swallowing its own tail, constantly creating itself and forming a circle. It is the Wheel of Time - The Alchemy Wheel. The sign Scorpio relations to transformation of all kinds especially when inner archetypes meet outer archetypes - The ouroboros eats its own tail to sustain its life, in an eternal cycle of renewal.
Just as Pluto has moved back and forth across the Galactic Center for the last two years,
another mythic esoteric symbol inspired by: The Ouroboros, who is believed to have been inspired by the Milky Way,as some ancient texts refer to a serpent of light residing in the heavens. With todays lunation, the serpent of light is ready to appear on earth, in the area of Chile and Peru per Drunvalo. In other words the Kundalini (coiled serpent) not only moved from Tibet around 1959 but is ready for full manifestation in the sacred mountains of Peru-Chile.

Scorpio is about going within to find the heart of gold to be refreshed or taught via gut instincts. Even though Scorpions and serpents live primarily beneath the earth, there is another side to this ancient symbolism. The Ouroboros is believed to have been inspired by the Milky Way,as some ancient texts refer to a serpent of light residing in the heavens. Interesting that this lunation has Sun-Moon @ 6 degrees Scorpio with the primary Sabian Symbol of the Gold Rush - when dedicated, determined and at times obsessive men and women desire to dig deeply for new values hidden within... This New Moon is another portal like the Sept. 29th nova moon in Libra, this one is even more heavily populated with geocosmic signatures that starts on Halloween, October 31, and lasts through November 13. Yes on November 13th the Mayan Sixth Day begins.


In this lunation set for either 7:14 EDT not only are Sun-Moon applying to a conjunction with Mars in powerfully dignified Mars but they oppose Vesta in Taurus from 6th to 12th houses. With the lights and Mars in the house of Virgo, their is a direct connection to the military - we should remember that Scorpios can be formidable military strategists. Men like Patton and Rommel were Scorpios who embraced positions where they could calculate, control and hold back a concerted effort until its execution would result in maximum impact.
In the chart above, teh Sun-Moon and Vesta in Taurus relating to the money house the 2nd where currency and capitalism have ruled a now dissolving empire. These house also reflect the major opposition of the year Saturn in Virgo (6th house of workers who toil for a days $ wage) to Uranus in collective Pisces in the 12th where hidden knowledge is demanding new spiritual values in culture. Venus was acting like a wild card in Jupiter ruled Sagittarius as the wild card moving into a TSQ with the infamous Saturn-Uranus Opposition exact on Nov. 3rd spelled reversals and extremes for a market. The Dow rose 11% on big rally, yet October is still shaping up to be one of the worst months in Wall Street history.

Khemia, Alchemical Transformation of Quetzalcoatl

The Egyptians honored the Scorpion and Beetle who dwelt beneath the earth and the magical, alchemical processes of life, death and regeneration - fitting perfectly here. For the most blessed state was to be born in a 'rich compost' of power, and the black, fertile mud of the Nile delta was their Prima Materia. For the ancients in Egypt, their word for the rich black, muddy earth was Kemit, adopted as khemia by the Greeks, which formed the basis of the word alchemy. Also involved in this alchemical transformation is Quetzalcoatl: Winged God and Lord of Light - Feather Serpent who ended the Fifth Day and passed the baton to Tezcatlipoca Lord of Darkness on Nov. 19, 2007 . As we finish the Galactic Fifth Night on November 12th this lunation marks a time when we say good bye to Quetzalcoatl's opposite Tezcatlipoca, who supposedly sent Quetzalcoatl into exile. As the Goddess of birth and flowering takes over a new day arrives.

Don't forget that as magnetic, sensitive and willing to expose falsehood, the Scorpio also carries some powerful the energy of deceit and retribution. Common traits which have remained as a significator for liars, incurable backstabbers, traitors, thieves even lechers or perverts. As Pluto rushes on direct to an ingress into Capricorn another Chthonic sign, from the Greek khthonios "of the earth" or the interior. Chiron now direct as of October 25th carries the healing symbolism for a generation or two being in Aquarius. Also we see how quickly Mars moves toward a SQ to both N Node-Chiron-Neptune - an octave of energy relates to Tezcatlipoca. The Aztecs pictured Tezcatlipoca as rioting along the highways in search of persons on whom to wreak his vengeance, as the wind of night rushes along the deserted roads with more seemingviolence than it does by day.

VEGA Tempers the fires of Mars
Changing course we look toward the fixed stars for meaning.
Mars is rising when Vega is Rising orb 01 mins 41 secs which signifies motivation, energy, libido and a powerfully assertive nature tempered by imagination, musical skills and inventiveness. Vega is a pale sapphire star in the constellation Lyra.
Meaning when together with Mars - Scientific interests, unpopular opinions, moral courage, favorable for gain. (Robson*).
Legend tells of Vega from Arabic word Al-Waqi' (1), "The stooping" eagle or "The swooping Vulture", and is often referred to as "The Vulture Star", "The Sitting Vulture", "The Falling Grype" and figured with upturned head with a lyre in its beak from the story of Orpheus [who might be described as the prototype of our modern pop-star] who was torn apart by the Maenads, raving mad-women [or fans], they cast the lyre in the river. Jupiter sent a vulture to scoop it out of the river and then placed it in the sky.
Or from "one may see among the stars the Lyre, its arms spread apart in heaven, with which in time gone by Orpheus charmed all that his music reached, making his way even to the ghosts of the dead and causing the decrees of hell to yield to his song. Wherefore it has honour in heaven and power to match its origin : then it drew in its train forests and rocks; now it leads the stars after it and makes off with the vast orb of the revolving sky". [ Astronomica, 1st century AD, book 1, p.30]

The "Final Show" with McCain and Obama spurred by Moon-Vesta Opposing Mars and More

"It does not require a majority to prevail, but rather an irate, tireless minority keen to set brush fires in people's minds." - Samuel Adams



Under a Hunter's Moon the final "show" debate between the two candidates perhaps created more exasperation then finality. In essence, this 3rd staged debate demonstrated that neither man has the true substance to lead America at this critical juncture. As Ralph Nader would say, corporate crime won along with the illegal war machine but that will change as capital dries up.

Tonight an exalted Taurus Moon put a heavy emotional focus on money and security. It is obvious that this election campaign has been more of a symbolic battle between the old and the new, authority (Saturn) and freedom (Uranus)comes about two weeks before the election when the exact opposition occurs. Obviously McCain the oldster is symbolized by Saturn and Obama, the first Afro-American candidate is Uranian. Neither candidate has the ability to heal, create real change in the undercurrent of major cultural battle that signals the end of empire for America.

Astrologically Gemini was rising in the chart above with Pallas carving out a strategy based on words. Pallas has been in close opposition to Juno-Sagittarius where religious beliefs and nationalistic chauvinism are fed by this energy. Mars now plowing ahead in passionate, obsessive Scorpio opposes tonight's Moon-Vesta duo for lots of competitive posturing especially on McCain's part.

Mercury stationing today in Libra @ 7 degrees 34 minutes set the stage for all the messes and investigations that need cleaning up into 2009. The Bailout Bill was passed while Mercury-Libra ruled by Venus was retrograde, The Sabian Symbol for 8 degrees Libra is reflects some of the impending reformations coming: "A stranger investigates an abandoned house. He sees a fireplace blazing and another person's shadow on the wall, but no one else in the room." More of the darker forces of political, financial manipulations are about to be brought to light. The mystery of the current market destruction will be dragged into the firelight by the time those millions of foreclosed houses are abandoned.

Mercury's motion was a small plus for Obama he instinctively used the direct Mercury for diplomatic purposes since disgrssion was the better part of valor tonight. By refraining from the petty name calling that has characterized McCain-Palin strategies.
Perhaps we can see why Obama defended his reasoning to vote "present" and his explanation especially with Mercury trine his natal Gemini Moon and Mars right on his natal Neptune...

Here is quote from OBAMA: "With respect to partial-birth abortion, I am completely supportive of a ban on late-term abortions, partial-birth or otherwise, as long as there's an exception for the mother's health and life, and this did not contain that exception. And I attempted, as many have in the past, of including that so that it is constitutional. And that was rejected, and that's why I voted present, because I'm willing to support a ban on late-term abortions as long as we have that exception."

Gateway to a New Strange World - Aries Full Moon 2008

The Aries Full Moon (Oct. 14th) has lots of elements of drama, first time events, myth, visionary ideas, fires in LA, erratic weather, earthquakes, volcanic eruptions and commands to be strong as we traverse a new fearful time. This fiery moon set for 4:02 PM EDT or 1:02 PM PDTis at 21 degrees Aries 51 minutes with an adventurous, imaginative Sabian symbol:
"Standing before the huge gateway of a lost African city, the commander of an expedition
exhorts his men to bravery. " Stirring oratory along with enhanced visual imaginings to spark us into testing our limits will be the watchwords as bold moves
are afoot. Myths and magic merge to mark this time as fools become intrepid and wise men
monkey around with explosive situations. The Galactic Tone for October 14th 2008 is 9 which deals with higher frequencies and the Mayan day sign is Chuen the Monkey. The monkey is a performer who relies on his creative ability, innocence, curiosity and magic kind of like our Aries moon.

Xquic and the Blood Moon
This moon in October known as the "Hunter's moon", a name given to the first full moon after the harvest moon has also been called a blood moon. Since Neptune the harbinger of imagination and wild visions is so prominent in this chart sitting on the Ascendant, we can digress a bit. "Blood Moon" or "Blood Girl/Maiden" is the English translation for Xquic (pronounced sh-KEEK), the Mayan daughter of Cuchumaquic, one of the lords of Xibalba, the Maya Underworld. Xquic is noted for being the mother of the Maya Hero Twins, Hunahpu and Xbalanque, she is sometimes considered to be the Maya goddess associated with the waning, post-full moon.

This is a time when things are just not quite stable. Mercury is void of course and ready to station direct on October 15th A time when communications can fail, and glitches occur Changes or unusual conditions in the weather occur along with high winds in fact a new tropical storm Omar off the coast of Venezuela is on track for hurricane statusj within the next few days.


Daring and Bold, Financial Moves the Hunter's Moon
Whenever Aries the pioneer enters the picture it is a time of action, new projects and first time events. With Sagittarius the adventuring pirate sitting at the highest point in the sky - MidHeaven, the theme of speculation is still hanging in the air with today's massive Wall Street uptick - a first time gain of 936 points for the Dow.
The Algonquian tribes called this full moon in October the Hunter's Moon since it was a time when Indian braves tracked and killed prey by moonlight, stockpiling food for the coming winter. Lately we have seen the Federal bailout crew led by Aries, Hank Paulson (March 28, 1946) tracking the dollars of the American taxpayer and literally stealing to stockpile for their own purposes. Tomorrow's Full Moon falls right on Paulson's Venus and opposes his Jupiter putting him right in the middle of the mele as
Fed Releases Flood of Dollars an unprecedented push by central banks to flood the financial system with as many dollars as banks want... WTF is this the primary scheme to monetize the dollar as Hal Turner said a few days ago - opening the gateway to the Amero?
Not so fast! Remember with Mars applying to a Square to Neptune (confusion-illusion) we are in an intense atmosphere of fear. Notice that things are not quite what they seem when we see Neptune right on the Ascendant with Mars in Scorpio (8th house) a major signifier of debt
but it also can be a catalyst to motivate many to get it together and investigate.



Mars, sexual expression, aggression and fascination with blood.
Mars ruler of Aries is intercepted in the 8th house of debt, taxes and death but near the cusp of the 9th in the above chart. Mars is opposed to the asteroid Vesta (sexual expression in its many forms) and leads to blocks, restrictions and sometimes over compensation by acting out with aggressive behavior. In terms of fixed stars Capulus from a star cluster in the sword hand of Perseus is culminating when Mars is on the Nadir: Willing to deal with the difficult or macabre - sounds scary kind of like the new HBO Series True Blood. Afterall this "blood moon" is coming right before Samhain with shivery chill in the air. Mars is also on the nadir when Altair is setting which nails some of the bold and rash action taking place.



Where there is Mars, there is Venus Void of Course in Scorpio
So we have not only a dramatic full moon but one that is down right sensationalist whether or not Blossom Moonchild's pronouncements from the Galactic Federation about Mass Contact from our Space Family comes true...It will be the indigenous peoples that will keep us grounded especially with risks of Venus Void of course where cultural matters are important themes now. Alcyone is rising as Venus is Setting on this moon where a ove of theatre or the rituals of magic will dominate along with a poetic soul.

Venus is alternately separating from a square to Neptune (financial resignations), SQ Ceres (personal needs of intimacy conflict with family desires) plus a Venus SQ Ascendant... Today (Oct. 13th) many are celebrating Indigenous People's Day to ameliorate the horrors created by European explorers who spawned genocide in the Western Hemisphere.
As the images of the lost, ancient African city swirls near the 12* East Longitude of the Mayan World Tree, we touch some of the legends which might coincide with this Blood Moon. Tomorrow's lunation Venus representing the Goddess is conjunct Astrae to bring justice to those native peoples who have suffered at the hands of the conquering hordes.

Indians of South America said all mankind was made of ’moon blood’ in the beginning. The same idea prevailed in ancient Mesopotamia, where the Great Goddess Ninhursag made mankind out of clay and infused with her "blood of life." Under her alternate name of Mammetun or Aruru the Great, the Potter, she taught women to form clay dolls and smear them with menstrual blood as a conception-charm, a piece of magic that underlay the name of Adam, from the feminine adamah, meaning "bloody clay," though scholars more delicately translated it "red earth."

Besides a Moon of action, fires, imagined spectacles this Hunter's Moon incorporates a promise of major transformation in a short time since Venus changes signs into Sagittiarius on October 18th. Then on October 21st before the Scorpio Sun ingress, the Libra Sun Sextiles Pluto - A time for major investigations, cleanups, planetary purifications, renewals and renovations, and hopefully the sharing of power.

Nashville Knockout or Does Obama Win by Decision? Mars ruled Tonight and Mercury Dominated

Round Two of the rumble between a gnome-like McCain and over-confident Obama
marked the second debate series in the last week where the Moon was Void of Course and Mercury is Retrograde. So here we have a Venus ruled chart (set for 8PM CDT) so $ and how well the economy will fair in the near term is what is up for everyone watching this battle in the music city.


Let's get it srtaight: Both of these candidates for president voted for the phony bailout and had to spin their support for the bankers coup. Obama on this Capricorn Moon with Jupiter still in close orb to Mercury in Libra immediately brought down to earth
(his natal Mars in Virgo) the current US financial situation:
QUESTION: With the economy on the downturn and retired and older citizens and workers losing their incomes, what's the fastest, most positive solution to bail these people out of the economic ruin?
"I think everybody knows now we are in the worst financial crisis since the Great Depression." Barack went on to jab at McCain's midsection: "I believe this is a final verdict on the failed economic policies of the last eight years, strongly promoted by President Bush and supported by Sen. McCain," By the time McCain was reeling, Obama sent out another flurry of punches and stung like a bee: "we just found out that AIG, a company that got a bailout, just a week after they got help went on a $400,000 junket."

We see from the chart above that Mars @ 2 Scorpio was dignified by rulership, face and term and McCain whose natal Mars in Leo trines Jupiter and also has that volatile SQ to Uranus is always ready to attach. McCain scores one: "We obviously have to stop this spending spree that's going on in Washington. Do you know that we've laid a $10 trillion debt on these young Americans who are here with us tonight, $500 billion of it we owe to China?"



QUESTION: Well, Senators, through this economic crisis, most of the people that I know have had a difficult time. And through this bailout package, I was wondering what it is that's going to actually help those people out.

McCain: Who kept boring the audience by invoking Ronnie Reagen's ghost and railing against cronyism kept trying to muster up some punches.... Except tonight the chart ruler in Venus in somewhat of detrimental position in Scorpio was SQ McCain's Mars. His lame response: "But Fannie and Freddie were the catalysts, the match that started this forest fire. There were some of us -- there were some of us that stood up against it. There were others who took a hike."

Instead of spending precious time analyzing all the "set up" questions and boring everyone, let's take a look at how the Nashville Debate Chart looked compered to Obama's natal.
The Mc @ 2 degrees Aquarius is conjunct Obama's Jupiter to expand his famous audacious hope and mainly push his agenda for the work camp movement and supposed compassion for the middle class. Uranus the ruler of his own natal Aquarius rising was transiting his first to give him the surprising response "coming out of the blue" just enough trickster edge over aged, hobbling McCain. Neptune also near Mc was another plus especially with a current on and off trine to transiting Mercury giving Barack the advantage of seeming like the futuristic leader filled with ideals of fairness.

Then Obmama swung for the fences but just barely got a single but that got him on base as transiting Mars was in close orb SQ his Jupiter in the 12th and exactly square his Mars turning him into the aggressor! :
" Now, with respect to Fannie Mae, what Sen. McCain didn't mention is the fact that this bill that he talked about wasn't his own bill. He jumped on it a year after it had been introduced and it never got passed.

And I never promoted Fannie Mae. In fact, Sen. McCain's campaign chairman's firm was a lobbyist on behalf of Fannie Mae, not me.

So -- but, look, you're not interested in hearing politicians pointing fingers. What you're interested in is trying to figure out, how is this going to impact you?"

The Astrology of the Calamitous Web Bot Predictions for Oct. 7th to 9th

Is the critical First Qtr. Moon in earthy Capricorn (Oct 7, 2008) the trigger for major economic collapse, earth changes and a new 9-11 type event?


On the Urbansurvival website and of course on Coast to Coast references
to the question: Is America "On Final Approach" to Financial Collapse?


UrbanSurvival.com Daily News Update
UrbanSurvival goes on to quote Cliff and Igor of the Webot forecasters

Before I list their quotes...
I have taken the liberty to pinpoint a time for the start of what is traditionally a critical time in the Moon's cycle - start of the first qtr. on Oct. 7th (above chart set for 5:05 AM Washington DC)
Don't forget that a little over 24 hours from this time at 9:03 AM PDT, the Moon moves into Aquarius ruled by the both Saturn and Uranus the stars of the Nov. 4th ultra opposition in mutables.

I recently wrote about this on my October Report - Balancing Order with Judgement:
From the new moon (Sept. 29th) major energies have been building in primal forms as the October 1st Scorpio moon hosted a powerful Mars sextile Pluto in air and fire. Those who engineered the takeovers and power plays in August want their way no matter the cost! At this point 700 to 800 Billion is cheap to keep the Pluto-Sagittarius casino economy going until North American Union and new currency burst on the scene next year. As the steam releases with those airy Mars in Libra transits morphing into an intense Mars in Scorpio - suddenly everything seems real precarious with lots of 90 degree angles forming into TSQ's by the critical first qtr. October 6th brings exact Sun-Mercury squares to ideological and expansive Jupiter but in strutural Capricorn. I am getting vibes that we are seeing a crumbling, dissolving and destruction of the capitalist system as practiced by Illuminati Bankers - this feels just like when the Berlin wall came down On November 9th 1989 when the wall came down we had Uranus-Venus-Saturn-Neptune all in Capricorn and as we approach the exact oppositon of Saturn-Uranus in mutables on Nov. 4, 2008, a historic time approaches. Pluto enters Capricorn on November 26th and this current Cardinal timeline will be completed.

Back to October 7th with Sun-Mercury in Libra SQ Moon-Jupiter in Capricorn in Cardinal, swift energetic forms of release like a volcanic eruption on Wall Street spreading to the ATMS on Main Street! Again we have a mutable cross (including of course Saturn-Virgo-Uranus-Pisces and Pallas-Gemini Opposing Juno-Pluto in Sagittarius. This is a changeable cross current of energies that are charged with craziness (notice above chart set for DC when first qtr. starts at 5:05 AM) Saturn sits on the ASC Opposing Uranus on the 7th while Pluto in the death throes of the casino economy sits in the 4th along with Jupiter-Moon intercepted in Capricorn. Actually what hit me was the Mars-Venus Scorpio push in the 2nd (Martial energies are highlighted) holding the TSQ(in the house of Money$ and Vaules ) to S Node-Cerese Opposing Chiron and N Node. A Worldwide Economic Crash, Martial Law in the US, Revolution of the bottom of the pyramid against the elite controllers or major earth changes from weather to quakes? All this building toward the Full Moon on Oct. 14th

Before I list their quotes...
I have taken the liberty to pinpoint a time for the start of what is traditionally a critical time in the Moon's cycle - start of the first qtr. on Oct. 7th

A major event which could dramatically impact 2, 2.2, or 22-million Americans.

This 'impact' could be the range of something fairly minor like "My bank card doesn't work anymore" to a 'blinding flash from a terror attack' on US soil.

This latter is somewhat supported by references early in the data to 'attack on US interests" and the fact that al Qaida has a nasty habit of trying to influence outcomes of elections, such as was the case with the Spanish train bombings a few years back.

The 'events' of next week will linguistically be characterized by about a 20% natural disaster/earth related component, a 40'ish percent impact that will be 'military' in nature and a 40% (or higher) impact that will be 'economic' in scope.

Notice that their prediction is for 7:10 AM UTC which puts a 23 degree Libra ascendant
(same as the degree Mercury stationed retrograde on Septebmer 24th)
In the chart set for Greenwhich UK Sun-Mercury in justice, indecisive Libra are in the 12th SQ the exaggerated communications of Sagittarius 3rd house cusp with Jupiter-Moon in contracting Capricorn intercepted and getting ready to let go with financial delays.
Without going into too much analysis 1 Degree 33 Leo sits at Mid Heaven - Sabian: An epidemic of mumps or a more modern intrepretation:
"Having arrived at the site of an epidemic, a doctor gives a press conference on the nature of the disease and the procedures of containment. "
Does this mean some insidious disease like the Bird Flu is spreading and there will be worldwide announcement? Should we expect quarantines or is this just a virulent propaganda pitch by the elite to keep us controlled? With Mars SQ the MidHeaven in the sign of poisons (Scorpio) along with Venus SQ Chiron in Aquarius representing the world healer and our chronic wounds.





Cliff and Igor go into more details in their audio interview with George Noory of C2C

Simpson Is Convicted After 13 Years As Libra Sun-Mercury SQ Jupiter to Extract Justice

We may have this headline in the NY Times marking comparisons to OJ's current conviction and his acquittal 13 years later on October 3rd. 1995. Many Stark Contrasts as Simpson Is Convicted - NYTimes.com The NY Times:
Acquitted in 1995 of murder, Mr. Simpson was convicted on Friday of rounding up five men, most with lengthy criminal records, and bursting into a $35-a-night Las Vegas hotel room to steal a trove of sports memorabilia from two collectibles dealers.


One thing is for sure on Friday Oct. 3rd. 2008 the Sun may have been at 10-11 degrees Libra just like it was at 10 a.m. on October 3, 1995 along with Mercury in Libra. Of course there are obvious differences besides the fact that after only three hours of deliberation, the jury returned a verdict of not guilty. Estimates were that 150 million people watched the delivery of verdict on TV. Yes instead of millions of Americans obsessively stewing over the daily details in the case against him, a city block set aside for media tents was largely empty for the four-week trial. With Jupiter in stark, serious Saturn ruled Capricorn, everybody has their eyes on the bailout and what it will do to the current economy.
So here we have yesterday's verdict which the jury took 13 hours to reach a guilty verdict around 11 PM Friday when Mars was no longer void of course and had entered Scorpio near OJ's natal Chiron @ 2 Scorpio. Mainly we saw a judgment promulgated by transiting Jupiter SQ Sun-Mercury in a definitive TSQ to OJ's Sun (Identity). Of course having transiting Pluto opposing his natal Venus @ 1 Cancer and Uranus @ 23 Sagittarius was a disastrous recipe for a verdict which included 12 felonies, led by kidnapping and armed robbery. He could spend the rest of his life in prison which reflects a transiting Uranus/Pisces-Saturn/Virgo Opposition passing to Pallas-Moon in Pisces placement in his natal chart

Back on Tuesday Oct. 3rd 1995, Uranus the trickster and master of quick, unexpected change was stationing @ 26 Capricorn ready to turn direct three days later and closely TSQ the Nodes at Libra-Aries! Moon was in Aquarius that historic day with Venus 21 degrees -N Node 26 degrees in Libra trine OJ's own natal Uranus @ 23 Gemini.
Perhaps the most indicative of all aspects was that Chiron with a recent ingress into Libra @ 3 degrees was trine OJ's own N Node at 1 Gemini and Mars @ 6 Gemini.

VP Debate Charged with Emotional Drama but Not Much Change

During the Galactic Fifth Night when time acceleration is evident per Calleman and Clow, tonight's debate seems rather insignificant. Yet there is only 30 days left for November's election and each event has hidden powers of persuasion even this bit of bread and circuses to keep many of us stuck in the old planetary underworld (AD 1755 to 201l).

For tonight's debate, the "slick" Senator and at times the painfully inept (Palin) brought out the TV Zombies and political pundits on this Scorpio Moon now Void of Course.
Palin of course was well coached and has a sportscaster's presence and affected style
hit the key emotional words for those chauvanistic, evangelical fanatics. Unfortunately neither of these NWO sock puppets represent any real positive, spiritual change for the American people but they did put on a good show for the mainstream.

First I will take a quick look a Sarah the Barracuda's forceful style almost strident style with Sun-Mars-Saturn all together in her natal 7th. Tonight's Mercury (communications) SQ Jupiter (belief systems) created a difficult TSQ to Palin's own natal Jupiter-Aries in the 9th. Perhaps we should call her Sarah the Dominatrix? Wait a minute let's get a look at the chart above and we see a Venus ruled wheel with a Taurus ascendant and a Capricorn MidHeaven. Hmmm Venus is sitting at Sarah's IC bringing that down home colloquial delivery to a good advantage except that even mentioning Henry Kissinger as a diplomat in the same sentence - please.
To acclaimed journalist Christopher Hitchens, Kissinger is nothing but a cold-blooded killer. "I think he's a war criminal. I think he's a liar. I think he's responsible for kidnapping, for murder," says Hitchens

Biden Had the Advantage From the Planets
I am not a political analyst or sociological reviewer but as a mundane astrologer, the transits were favoring Joltin Joe Biden. The start of tonight's debate had an ascendant
at 12 Degrees Taurus making Venus ruler of the chart and sitting near the 7th in Scorpio
separating from a passionate and vindictive Scorpio Moon in it's fall. Jupiter at 12 Capricorn Capricorn a plus for Joe since his Mars sits at 12 Scorpio and this was powerfully, positive sextile. Both Sun-Mercury in Libra sat over Joe's own dominant 10th house and let a polite, savy negotiator style shine tonight. Uranus the transiting wild card was near his natal Ceres in Pisces added compassion, nurturing and supporting individuality. Biden showed a face of identification with the suffering of middle class families. Joe even bit his tongue when he may have wanted to attack the Palin-McCain policies with true vengance. Of course there were times when his Natal Mars kept plunging like a sharp knife into Palin's exaggerations.



Tonight's Debate Chart on Outer wheel and Joe Biden's Natal Chart (Nov. 20, 1942) in the Middle
Biden who is not only a known Zionist made a point how much he loved Israel along with Palin. The Capricorn MH might have something to do with this point of view. Biden's own reflection of Obama's desire to continue killing in Afghanistan and Pakistan played to what he thought was the crowd as Mars now void of course in Libra can create panic and the motivation for personal survival before group cooperation....







Tonight's Debate Chart on Outer Wheel and Sarah Palin's Natal Chart (Feb. 11, 1964) in the Middle
Tonight's Ceres-Neptune opposition crossing Sarah's Asc/Descenant axist was a double edged sword or should we say speaking out of two sides of her mouth too. Ceres on her ascendant offered a certain pride, sympathy for children but the whole unrealistic, deceptive way of needing attention didn't play well. Her her special needs child held captive to can support, what a travesty. She kept repeating McCain's name like a mantra to create some type of evil fearful spell but the Uranian portion of America's voters won't be buying this.
Notice that there will be some unexpected changes with the nature of this campaign in relationship to Sara as Uraanus continues to transit her 8th house of secret influences and the $ war chest raised by McCain's illuminati controllers. By the next Full Moon on Oct. 14th when Mars @ 7 Scorpio sits in her 4th house of family, domestic activities and mothering - will this involve her 17-year-old unmarried, pregnant daughter Bristol?
Ok I am getting ahead of myself, let's just sit back and see what happens in this
distracting drama which tends to keep many from seeing the real changes happening.

DejaVu Religious Stampede in India Kills at Least 147

Like a bad dream running over and over again, these horrific stampedes occur in India on a regular basis (last one on August 3, 2008). India and the places like Chamunda Devi temple, at the southern edge of the 15th-century Mehrangarh fort can become places of death and ecstasy. In India, where a nine-day festivals like Navratra that celebrates the nine incarnations of the Hindu mother goddess Durga occur. The last major stampede occurred on August 3rd 2008 in Bilaspur, India when Mars was applying to a wicked opposition with Uranus (exact on August 6th) right after the historic Solar Eclipse August 1, 2008. The eclipse path put the eclipse in the 8th house, with Mars and Uranus opposition were active. The August 3rd. tragedy was another sacred nine-day festival to celebrate Shravan Navratras,that honors the Hindu goddess Shakrti, or divine mother. All incarnations of the Divine Mother or Kali-Ma are angry to say the least considering how humans are treating this planet!


Still all for many of us are now feeling DejaVu rather psychic feelings, spiritual revelations from the Mercury-Neptune trines in September and October
Sun, Moon, Mercury and Mars all in Libra in the first in hard aspect to Jupiter reflected this second tragic stampede in the Jodphur. Jupiter which is about expanded religiousity
is intercepted in the 4th house which signfies the foundation or base of the society and its traditions or the folk-soul.
The chart above shows critical mutable degrees (29*) at the angles and Pluto the incarnate of Shiva and Kali almost exactly at the IC.

Chiron near N Node of destiny in the 5th house of celebrations and festivals is closely opposed both S. Node and Ceres in Leo (letting of adulation) in the collective, group orientation in the 11th. Also to note that the Mega Saturn-Uranus Opposition sits in the 12th and 6th houses respectively reflecting so many injuries from being involved in spiritual ceremonies.

Television footage showed dead pilgrims strewn on the narrow walkway about 150 yards from the Chamunda Devi temple, at the southern edge of the 15th-century Mehrangarh fort in Jodphur, in the western state of Rajasthan. It was the second deadly religious tragedy in the past few months in India, where pilgrim stampedes are not uncommon.

WASHINGTON - Urgent efforts to lash together a $700 billion rescue plan for the national economy broke apart Thursday night, hours after key lawmakers had declared they had reached a deal.

Treasury Secretary Henry Paulson and Federal Reserve Chairman Ben Bernanke sped to Capitol Hill to try to revive or rework the proposal that the administration says must be quickly approved by Congress to stave off economic disaster.

Congressional leaders were to meet with the economic chiefs into the night.

THIS IS A BREAKING NEWS UPDATE. Check back soon for further information. AP's earlier story is below.

WASHINGTON (AP) — Key members of Congress claimed agreement Thursday on an outline and crucial details of an urgent multibillion-dollar plan to stave off national economic disaster, but a historic White House meeting with President Bush, the two men fighting to replace him and other congressional leaders broke up with conflicts in plain view.

After six days of intensive talks on the $700 billion package urgently requested by the Bush administration, with Wall Street tottering and the presidential election nearing, there was more confusion than clarity.

A tentative accord in principle among influential Democratic and Republican lawmakers was announced at midday, giving the Bush administration just a fraction of the money it wanted up front, with half the $700 billion total subject to a congressional veto, congressional aides said.

But conservatives were still in revolt, balking at the astonishing price tag of the proposal and the heavy hand of government that it would place on private markets. Sen. Richard Shelby of Alabama, the top Republican on the Senate Banking Committee, emerged from the White House meeting to say the announced agreement "is obviously no agreement."

Both of Congress' Republican leaders, Rep. John Boehner and Sen. Mitch McConnell, also denied there was any deal. And the White House called the earlier announcement progress but also said it was reviewing the outline with more work needed to finalize a bill for Congress to rush into law.

There is wide agreement the U.S. economy is in peril, with financial institutions going under or near the edge and recession looming along with the resulting layoffs and increased home foreclosures.

There had been hopes for broad agreement, too, on a prescription by now, with a confident White House announcement by the president, John McCain, Barack Obama and congressional leaders.

But the best McConnell would say afterward was, "It's clear that more progress is needed and we must continue to work together quickly to protect our economy."

One group of House GOP lawmakers circulated an alternative that would put much less focus on a government takeover of failing institutions' sour assets. This proposal would have the government provide insurance to companies that agree to hold frozen assets, rather than have the government purchase the assets. Rep Eric Cantor, R-Va., said the idea would be to remove the burden of the bailout from taxpayers and place it, over time, on Wall Street instead.

Democrat Obama and Republican McCain, who have both sought to distance themselves from the unpopular Bush, sat down with the president at the White House for an hourlong afternoon session that was striking in this brutally partisan season — but also, according to one participant, "a full-throated discussion." By also including Congress' Democratic and Republican leaders, the meeting gathered nearly all Washington's political power structure at one long table in a small West Wing room.

"All of us around the table ... know we've got to get something done as quickly as possible," Bush told reporters, brought in for only the start of the meeting. Obama and McCain were at distant ends of the oval table, not even in each other's sight lines. Bush, playing host in the middle, was flanked by Congress' two Democratic leaders, House Speaker Nancy Pelosi and Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid.

All the visitors left the White House without talking to a huge media group.

Under the accord announced hours earlier among key lawmakers, the Treasury secretary would get $250 billion immediately and could have an additional $100 billion if he certified it was needed, an approach designed to give lawmakers a stronger hand in controlling the unprecedented rescue. Aides described the details on condition of anonymity because they were not authorized to speak publicly.

The plan's centerpiece still is for the government to buy the toxic, mortgage-based assets of shaky financial institutions in a bid to keep them from going under and setting off a cascade of ruinous events, including wiped-out retirement savings, rising home foreclosures, closed businesses, and lost jobs.

The Bush administration has made near-daily concessions to demands from the right and the left, among them a limit on pay for executives of bailed-out financial institutions and an equity stake in rescued companies for the government.

Despite the Republican outcry, Banking Chairman Chris Dodd, D-Conn., and Republican Sen. Bob Bennett, among others, said the negotiators from Congress and the administration had arrived at a deal that could win approval. Other key lawmakers said that after days of bare-knuckles negotiations there was little of note left to resolve.

Wall Street showed its pleasure — but the markets closed before the White House meeting and before the negative Republican comments started piling up. The Dow Jones industrials closed some 196 points higher, though that was down from larger gains earlier in the day.

Despite the national prominence of Bush, McCain and Obama, none has been deeply involved in this week's scramble to hammer out a package.






$700B bailout plan breaks apart; talks to continue - Yahoo! News

McCain suspends campaign - Election Mess Part Two Mercury-Mars transits his first house

"Dirty tricks" McCain suspends campaign today Sept. 24th to work on Bailout - yeah right?
This happens as Mercury Retrograde transits his first house (look at chart for Mercury station retrograde.
We should expect that the current Bailout plan will be delayed, changed, revised and probably not totally completed till Oct. 15th when Mercury stations direct again.
Venus enters Scorpio to meet his natal Pallas (strategy in politics) for more hidden agendas.
Saturn which is about delays, blocks and structure is moving closer to his natal idealistic, nebulous Neptune in Virgo
Will we even have elections, that is the question?..

McCain suspends campaign to work on Wall Street plan | U.S. | Reuters

Fast forward to his announcement to take a more active roll in negotiating the bailout, the move now comfortably in Leo heading near McCain's Mars at 12 degrees Leo...
Notice this article from the elite mouthpiece the Washington Post - Candidates have Negotiators Wary
"Democrats reacted angrily to the Republican presidential nominee's attempt yesterday to inject himself into the negotiations over the legislation."

The spin is spun as the supposed "Maverick McCain" is looking like some kind of patriot to the sheeple. So Barack is in checkmate and must participate (Pallas in Scorpio is tricky, devious and backhanded when in John McCain's hands)
"But with tempers still flaring, Sen. Barack Obama, the Democratic nominee, appeared to quiet the controversy with his announcement last night that after consulting with President Bush, he, too, will be in Washington today"
Remember as we look at the chart above transiting Saturn is quickly moving towards a meeting with McCain's Neptune @ 16 degrees Virgo (Sabian Symbol - A volcano in eruption)
Even more telling is that McCain's natal Moon @ 27 Capricorn 02 is close to the US Foundation-Sibley Chart for July 4, 1776 adding to the whole idea of deconstruction
for the country if this dude wins.



At the same time that McCain made his announcement today around 2:30 PM EDT - Sarah the Barracuda was being interviewed by Katie Couric.
For Palin, Mercury-Mars and Venus were transiting her 3rd house of communications especially with electronic media. She was the double talking charmer who equivocated
in her defense of McCain and even the bailout.
So here we have the Mercury RX - Mars connection at 23 Libra trining Ms. Palin's bad ass Stellium of Sun-Mars-Saturn in Aquarius giving her game and temporary advantage.

Election Results via Astrological Analysis 2008 - What a Mess Part One

It won't be the first time or last that we astrologers about Nov. 4th election
when the historic Saturn Opposition to Uranus which is already
creating chaos. We sure as hell don't need Obama or McCain to provide the impetus for change as our economic system melts almost as fast as Greenland's coastal glaciers.
Per the chart of above set for 6 AM when polls open back east, voting day should host multiple astrological aspects as an adaptable nature dominated by 180 degree angles.
First of all we not only have powerful TSQ's with both Saturn and Uranus the apex of
a close opposition of Pallas now retrograde in Gemini to Venus in Sagittarius applying to a conjucntion with Pluto on Nov. 12th in the last degrees of Sagittarius to start the dawn of the Mayan Sixth Day. Moving back to Election day we also have a Grand Mutable Cross, a Grand Trine in Earth, a Mighty Thors Hammer and a Kite. The premiere aspect has Saturn @ 18 Virgo 57 exactly opposing Uranus @ 18 Pisces 57.

Radical Election Crazier then 2000
This years elections will be without the Mercury retrograde factor which drove chad hunters
crazy in the Gore-Bush debacle.
According to Mary Pat Flaherty who writes in the Washington Post - Election Day Could Be a Mess
Worries over registration surge, failure-prone equipment, new procedures - reflections of both Saturn regarding procedures and registration and Uranus when it comes to election software.
This year Faced with a surge in voter registrations leading up to Nov. 4, election officials across the country are bracing for long lines, equipment failures and confusion over polling procedures that could cost thousands the chance to cast a ballot.
When it comes to picking the next president of the US, it may actually take those 100+ hours of horary analysis.
I am not so sure that McCain will win since this is going to be one of the most radical and unusual election in US history.

*On November 4th the polls open with Moon VOC in Capricorn then at 7:01 PM EST the Moon will ingress into Aquarius..

.
*Mercury will changes signs into Scorpio @ 11 AM EST which will cross into Obama's 9th house cusp during the voting.

*Moon will conjunct Obama's natal Jupiter @ 00 Aquarius 51 - the people may see Obama has the "more benefic influence"
as opposed to the more restrictive influence of McCain the old man.

Acceptance Charts and Anomalies
Even thought I am an avid follower of Ray Merriman, he bases his prediction for a McCain victory on the acceptance chart at RNC
set for September 4, at 9:20 PM, CDST, in St. Paul, MN, in his latest weekly preview.

I began looking again at Obama's acceptance chart set for Aug. 28 2008 at 8:17 PM MDT in Denver. attached with email.


Unquestionably the Obama Acceptance Chart perhaps more difficult to interpret with Uranus-Pisces on Ascendant and ancient ruler Jupiter in the 10th

Pluto right on MC in Sagittarius at Galactic Center talks of a historic nomination on a much larger scale. Having what was not traditionally a good omen highest in the chart's South also signfies major transformation if he does win. From a purely positive side Obama's acceptance time has Jupiter the ruler is sitting in the 10th to indicate expansion of thought for Barack's position as the US economy contracts.
Mercury is the most dignified planet at an angle is in the 7th and dignified in Virgo - Note that Mercury is the ruler of Obama's natal Mars @ 22 Virgo which opposed the destructive Full Moon on Sept. 15th Obama's Mars is also
found in the 7th of "one of his Natal versions" set for Aug. 4th @ 7:24 PM in Honolulu
Of course in a natal chart, Mars in 7th and in Virgo reflects open enemies thoughout life
who use a conservative, prudently run operation to dethrone the Bush-McCain Iran-Contra alumnus. Take note: in this recent article by Paul Martens about the old Iran Contra Gang, Robert M. Gates, currently the Secretary of Defense hails from On December 6, 2006, the United States Senate voted 95-2 to confirm Mr. Gates, despite the fact that he occupies a full chapter, Chapter 16, in the “Final Report of the Independent Counsel for Iran/Contra Matters...Despite his murky history, Gates was recycled as Director of the CIA by President George H.W. Bush in 1991, who, let’s not forget, was also a former Director of the CIA.

Unfortunately with the Palin variable, the Inauguration Day chart set for January 20, 2009 at 12 PM in DC tends to favor Palin
with an Aquarian Stellium sitting in the 10th...

I have only began my analysis but hesitate to concede a complete take over by the elite, afterall the sixth day begins on Nov. 12, 2008 and lots can happen!

Defending a Financial Meltdown - Regarding Henry

Maybe you have been watching markets around the world plunge into deep black holes since Monday's Full Moon. This was a lunation happening right after Friday's deadly Sun-Uranus Opposition (train crash in LA and Russian plane crash). On Monday's Full Moon, the Moon was conjunct Uranus @ 5:13 AM EDT transferring all those Friday shock waves to Wall Street. First financial shocker: we find out that Bank of America was buying Merrill Lynch for 50 billion dollars in stock, scooping up the Wall Street icon battered by the housing and credit crisis. The B of A deal was not just a white knight coming into rescue In fact unknown to a lot of American citizens On Sunday, a rare emergency trading session opened in New York to allow Wall Street dealers in the $455 trillion derivatives market to reduce their exposure to a potential bankruptcy filing by Lehman. Lehman was our second shockwave... WTF is going on you might ask? How can their be special sessions for the elitefinanciers and traders - maybe the fact that Sun is applying to a SQ with Pluto might reveal some of those who have been manipulating our markets for years.

By 2:39 PM PDT yesterday a fiery Aries moon came into the picture. With an Aries Moon the fire signs like Fed Chief, Ben Shalom Bernanke (Sagittarius) and Henry Merritt "Hank" Paulson Jr. (born March 28, 1946 Aries) and head of Treasury got goint. It appeared that this dynamic duo was going to everything they can to prop up the markets.
They want to save AIG but it won't work in the long run. The aftermath of Monday's Full Moon with shocking Uranus-near the Moon was a 504 Point drop in the Dow.

Starting with the last first, let's look at some Career Highlights of this white knight in an episode I call regarding Paulson.
From Wikipedia:
Paulson was Staff Assistant to the Assistant Secretary of Defense at The Pentagon from 1970 to 1972.[7] He then worked for the administration of U.S. President Richard Nixon, serving as assistant to John Ehrlichman from 1972 to 1973.

He joined Goldman Sachs in 1974, working in the firm's Chicago office. He became a partner in 1982. From 1983 until 1988, Paulson led the Investment Banking group for the Midwest Region, and became managing partner of the Chicago office in 1988. From 1990 to November 1994, he was co-head of Investment Banking, then, Chief Operating Officer from December 1994 to June 1998;[9] eventually succeeding Jon Corzine (now Governor of New Jersey) as its chief executive. His compensation package, according to reports, was US$37 million in 2005, and US$16.4 million projected for 2006. His net worth has been estimated at over $700 million.

After the market's closed up today, news came out that Treasury Said to Be Considering AIG Conservatorship. This sounds like a "HanK" Paulson Jr. plan.
Sept. 16 (Bloomberg) -- The U.S. Treasury is considering taking over American International Group Inc. under a conservatorship as one option to address the insurer's crisis, according to two people briefed on the discussions.
Bloomberg.com: Worldwide

Regarding Henry
Cardinal signs especially those with major TSQ's or even a Grand Cross like Henry Paulson, want to do things right away
to change, fix or ameliorate the current crisis. Hank Paulson Jr. has not only an Aries Sun but Venus @ 20 degrees effecting
his basic orientation to $$ and relationships. Turns out that natally Hank's Venus in Aries is TSQ a defensive, protective Saturn-Mars conjunction in Cancer and a Chiron-Jupiter stellium in Libra. If that wasn't enough to want to keep the old corporate masters going we throw in a natal Pallas in Capricorn @ 12 degrees dealing with defending law and order in the form of infrastructure.
You got the picture, Henry will keep plugging the holes in the dam the old fashioned way take it over.
Interesting to look at the transits from yesterday's Full Moon including a Jupiter transit (beliefs-idiologies) and Venus opposing his
natal Jupiter and conflicting with his nasty Mars-Saturn conjunction.
Maybe kids will be wearing Henry Paulson masks for Halloween!

The Harvest Moon and the Powerful Alchemy of Synthesis

The Harvest Moon in Pisces the Mystical 22 Degree

Libra Trines Demand Karmic Choices
In a time of wild imagination, the title Harvest Moon reflects more then Indian lore and a time when it will be more then corn, pumpkins, squash, beans, and wild rice-- the chief Indian staples--are now ready for gathering. Neptune has been pushing wild scenarios including that souls being retrieved on Oct. 14th by the Galactic Federation Of Light - Supposedly a 2,000 Mile Long Craft Will Appear on Oct 14th 2008 over Alabama

As you can see people are grasping at any wild fantasy to not face the inevitable especially with Neptune so prominent.

Financial Meltdowns is on the horizon the Full Moon and they are scary for the average person. Saturn-Sun in first house of the chart above opposing manic Uranus-Moon in unstable Pisces...The facts are present Lehman Brothers’ decision to file bankruptcy and worries that American International Group could become the next casualty of the credit crisis. Bank of America rapidly organized an acquisition of Merrill Lynch, which was negotiated in 48 hours over the weekend,

Tomorrow's full moon stimulates wild visions, future planning, and vision questing with Mercury-Libra exactly trine Neptune on 9-17-08. The rising degree for the chart set for DC @ 2 Virgo relates to the Sabian Symbol: Two angels bringing protection. Also Venus in Libra also to be exactly trine mystical Neptune ruler of this Mooon along with Jupiter on Sept. 19th. Romance, ideals of justice and righting indiscretions of legal systems add to the this time which also favors retreat, closure, spirituality and inspiration. Then the whopper is Mars exact trine to Neptune when their may even be military attacks others for reasons of ideology or beliefs. I am getting ahead of myself but with Arcturus culminating as Jupiter is Rising known to signify a person who is seen as a brave or bold leader and with Mars-Neptune in positive aspect we may leadership emerges dramatically and offers a global solution.

Materializing Mediums from Palin to More
On September 15th @ 5:13 AM EDT a Full Moon occurs at 22 Pisces 54 is the degree of the materializing medium. The Sabian Symbol for 23 Pisces per Martin Goldsmith on page 353 of The Zodiac by Degrees "The wife of a fallen general springing up from his body, delivers a stirring speech to his comrades and then leads them into battle." Sarah Heath Palin (born Feb. 11, 1964) is right in the middle of this Full Moon as she was during the new moon. Palin's Sun @ 22 Aquarius is involved in a mutual reception to ruler Uranus in Pisces - especially with Neptune now transiting at the same degree adding to her mystique - more on this later has an almost I have also said that her exact Chiron-Pluto opposition from Pisces to Virgo. I have described connected to divination, channeling, and atavistic traits that reappear after disappearing generations ago. Sun @ 22 Aquarius is involved in a mutual reception especially with Neptune now transiting at the same degree adding to her mystique - more on this later. The leader indicated by Artcurus could also be Obama who has his Mars @ 22 Virgo opposing the Full Moon. Obabma also has a similar opposition from Chiron-Pisces (Victim Savior) to Pluto but not as close as Palin.


On this lunation when 22º halos often encircle the moon. The symbolism of this master degree is about causes or ideologies can survive death and even generatison . Sometimes these causes can been a total re-education process where a misguided public are goaded into taking that giant step, or evolutionary leap. The ruling elite are pushing for another giant step involving control. I indicated earlier that this leap forward would involve the balancing of the currently dominant left-brain with the incoming right brain representing a kind of intuitive medium ship. Palin s unquestionably an concious medium who hates being a puppet but goes along with the game to finish the take over of the US.

Alphard
The theme of water in all its forms are really strong during this Full Moon as we see the same Heliacal Rising Star is Alphard as the Virgo New Moon on August 3toh. Alphard is known the Water Serpent and can be about leadin g a life close to the edge. Edgy is a good word to describe many of us. Just as seething with anger or passion might paint a picture of others. Alphard is also connected to seeking intense emotional encounters

According Ebertin-Hoffmann in Fixed Stars page 50: "Alphard is of a Saturnian nature with a measure of influence from Venus and Neptune." Alphard is definitely a malefic influence and Ebertin-Hoffman goes on to say that it maybe connected to poison - blood poisoning or murder by poison. Alphard was also the Heliacal rising star during the 2001 WTC event.

We are currently separating from devastation Sun-Uranus Oppositon on Sept. 12th setting up for Sun opposes in Virgo and is applying to a Square with Pluto emphasizing power struggles - power-brokering, quarrels, and other turbulent conditions...
This is not only about causes that survive death but a total re-education process where a misguided public are goaded into taking that giant step, or evolutionary leap. I indicated earlier that this leap forward would involve the balancing of the currently dominant left-brain with the incoming right brain representing a kind of intuitive medium ship.


Alchemy and ISIS/OSIRIS
Hurricane IKE has scattered all the pieces of the chessboard. A breaking story from Duke Energy reported that more than 760,000 customers lost power Sunday due to storm damage. CINCINNATI -- As the remnants of Hurricane Ike roll across the country wreaking havoc... Unexpected, highly uranian deadly accidents also created a sort of aftermath-harvest. dismembering from massive injuries, 25 dead from a train wreck of major proportions in Chatsworh to ISIS-OSIRIS of myth. "Set found Osiris' coffin, took his body out, and dismembered him into 13 parts, scattering them across the land of Egypt. Each part represented one of the 13 full moons (each year has 12 or 13 full moons"
created scattered injuries from a train wreck of major proportions in Chatsworh.
Alchemy was known as the spagyric art after Greek words meaning to separate and to join together. Compare this with the primary dictum of Alchemy in Latin: SOLVE ET COAGULA — Separate, and Join Together. Isis of Egyptian myth relates well to the alchemical Virgo. Isis found the pieces of her dismembered husband Osiris and she was able to find and put together 12 of the 13 parts. Since Isis was unable to find the 13th, his penis, which was eaten by the oxyrhynchus fish (a fish with an unusual curved snout resembling depictions of Set). Instead, she fashioned a phallus out of gold and sang a song around Osiris until he came back to life. Much raising of life, consciousness and spirit will be seen on this Full Moon - remember Osiris was resurrected. So it was that Isis conceived Horus. Due to this experience, Osiris became Lord of the Dead, and the Afterlife.
Inspired by the Mars-Mercury-Venus stellium in Libra now trine Chiron-N Node and Neptune in Aquarius, we are taking up the baton of the alchemists and bringing about this synthesis on many levels. Singularly important from an alchemical mundane perspective is that this Full Moon/Uranus relates to the US Chart. This aspect makes a TSQ with the US Chart's destructive Neptune SQ Mars in Gemini. This historic aspect has been a motivator for empire building via warfare for over two hundred

The Virgo-Pisces axis is accented in the full moon chart (Virgo rising) as Sun-Saturn sit in the first and Moon-Uranus in the 7th at angles of receptivity. In esoteric astrology, the moon is the ruler of Virgo and being close to Uranus in this chart puts an emphasis on the collective freeing itself from the victim mentality and embracing the unconscious mind.

McCain Acceptance Speech with Lives in the Balance and Repression All Around

Lives in the Balance by Jackson Brown

On the radio talk shows and the t.v.
You hear one thing again and again
How the u.s.a. stands for freedom
And we come to the aid of a friend
But who are the ones that we call our friends--
These governments killing their own?
Or the people who finally can't take any more
And they pick up a gun or a brick or a stone
There are lives in the balance
There are people under fire
There are children at the cannons

In a city named after the apostle Paul, the father of misogyny, what do you expect from the Reptilathugs?
Greetings from a fascist state right at the the highlight of the RNC Convention. This was an evening when Jupiter sat at MidHeaven in a totally expanded, conservative, iron jawed, nation of laws above the spirit of humanity. Aries rising with Mars-Libra SQ Jupiter sitting in the 6th house which rules the armed forces and the police as well as issues concerning national defense.
Other Libran planets reflecting the delicate balance of lives under duress for asking to be heard are Mercury-Venus both applying to a conflicting SQ with Jupiter-the law giver.

What would you expect from a party led by a hot headed 72 year old hypocrite? More appropriately a convention held in a town named after a church patriarch, with statements attributed to him (St. Paul): I Timothy 2--that women were created second, sinned first, and should keep silence?
Or more appropriate in the context of charges filed against protestors this week in violation of the 2002 Minnesota version of the Federal Patriot Act:
"For all who rely on works of the law are under a curse; for it is written, "Cursed be everyone who does not abide by all things written in the book of the law, and do them." (Gal. 3:10).

Chart below has two Grand Crosses of definitive crisis forming - one is a mutable cross
involving Sun-Saturn in Virgo from sixth house opposing Uranus in the 12th...crossed by
Pallas-Gemini (strategy of words) in the second opposing Juno-Sagittarius (political partnership). The other more lasting cross is fixed and has been creating deep change in the US and the world: Vesta-Taurus (unwavering focus-commitment) opposing Moon-Astrae (justice) in Scorpio crossed by Chiron-N Node in Aquarius (collective destiny of wounding) opposing S Node in Leo (executive power from the past).

RNC 8 Charged with “Conspiracy to Riot in Furtherance of Terrorism”
So Now We have the St. Paul or Minniapolis 8.
In what appears to be the first use of criminal charges under the 2002 Minnesota version of the Federal Patriot Act, Ramsey County Prosecutors have formally charged 8 alleged leaders of the RNC Welcoming Committee with Conspiracy to Riot in Furtherance of Terrorism. Monica Bicking, Eryn Trimmer, Luce Guillen Givins, Erik Oseland, Nathanael Secor, Robert Czernik, Garrett Fitzgerald, and Max Spector, face up to 7 1/2 years in prison under the terrorism enhancement charge which allows for a 50% increase in the maximum penalty.

Then tonight right before McCain's fight them for your country speech, the empire's dark guard arrested protestors along with representatives of the press. McCain's reflecting his own natal Mars-Leo in the 10th Square Uranus in house of open enemies the 7th - both at quite volatile and aggressive angles. When he said:
“Fight with me. Fight for what’s right for our country. Fight for the ideals and character of a free people.”
ST. PAUL, Sept 4 (Reuters) - Police arrested 250 anti-war protesters on Thursday shortly before John McCain accepted the Republican presidential nomination at the party's convention a short distance away.

Sarah Palin With God On Her Side Part Two

With God On Our Side

Oh my name it is nothin'
My age it means less
The country I come from
Is called the Midwest
I's taught and brought up there
The laws to abide
And that land that I live in
Has God on its side.


Pluto ends it's last void of course phase in Sagittarius (for a long time). Sagittarius is the sign of religious beliefs, stories of truths and visions. Jupiter ruler of Sagittarius is the ancient ruler of Pisces. You might say that when Pluto is void of course many leaders display outright power. This is a time when true compassion, tolerance and patience are pushed aside in favor of drastic actions. Pluto void is really a description that we are only has sick as our secrets. On Sept. 8th Pluto stations direct bringing with him a host of natural destruction as Hurricane Hanna creates havoc in Haiti, Ike and Josephine following in the Atlantic. Pluto then quickly moves into Capricorn, sign of authority-governmenton November 26th just 22 days after the election.
The very next day Uranus stations direct @ 18 Pisces 44 for some shocking changes to all those true believers and faith-based constituents.

Sarah personifies the Sabian Symbol for 19 Pisces: "A beautiful and charismatic woman exhorts a crowd of citizens to settle their differences and rebuild a tumbledown cathedral." In this case she is preaching to her followers using natural persuasiveness and passionate pronouncements getting all the various evangelicals, crusaders together.
Currently transiting Jupiter in Capricorn is applying toward a square to her natal Jupiter in Aries which is bound to offer an expansion of confidence and even a bit of arrogance.
Jupiter, next year will be moving thru her Mercury-Moon-Mars-Sun-Mars-Saturn will mean an even more expansive role in government in 2009.

Palin says Iraq war is 'task from God' - UPI.com

Now I have to say that I do agree that we should pray for protection of not just our troops but the millions of people in Iraq, Palestine and the rest of the Middle East that have felt the wrath of warlike Yehovah.



When people of any race, culture, political belief think they have "God on Their Side" there is no trying to convince them of social justice or what is really happening.
By the time Jupiter transits thru the most conservative of all signs Capricorn, and enters Aquarius on January 2009, the masses will start to awaken to the spirit of revolution and real change.

Chart Below is BiWheel with Sarah's natal inner wheel and start of Nov. 4th election
on outside wheel. The mighty Saturn-Uranus opposition is transiting the 2nd-8th houses for Sarah Palin - personal values vs. other's values. Chart shows her Venus in the assertive, independent sign of Aries to be transited by Pluto in rigid,overly strict Capricorn in early 2009 and Saturn-Uranus in 2010.
Note: chart below shows Moon on election day in rather uptight, Capricorn moving over her natal Vesta with disciplined and structured qualities also in the sign of the goat.
Undoubtedly, the Moon which represents the people, their emotions and especially women
will empathize with Sarah's dedication to work in an administrative leadership form.
Sarah will be a big asset to the old man, McCain as he rides the Saturnian power of Jupiter in Capricorn.
