Republican Party: July 6 1854

For the Republican Party, we'll follow the same outline as in my previous post on the Dem Party, so let's look at:

1. natal (n) midpoint pictures
2. n Lunar phase
3. Secondary Progressed (sec) Lunar phase
4. sec midpoint pictures, March 2006
5. n Sun/Moon personality blend
6. sec Sun/Moon blend
7. minor progressed (minor*) midpoint pics
8. minor Sun/Moon blend (*minor = the causal, thought, mental plane--Robert Blaschke)


1. There are only two n midpoint pics from the chart you see above:

Sun/Nep = Uranus: sudden impressionability or even psychic awareness; nervous reactions for unclear reasons; relationship disputes.

Sat/NN = Venus: difficulty in expressing emotions; lack of adaptability; separations.

2. n Lunar phase = 1st quarter: crisis in action--forceful managerial activity phase.
The essential drive is the building of frameworks or scaffolding which may serve for the future objectivication of new social ideals and relationships.

There is a strong will and perhaps a feeling of self-exaltation when faced with crumbling old structures, and at times a ruthless attempt is made to consolidate the new ideal.

(Examples having this phase natally: Cromwell, Stalin, Baudelaire, de Gaulle, and Queen Elizabeth.)

3. sec Lunar phase, March 2006: Full Moon/culmination phase, exact May 12, 2005 (using DC here, but with natal location it occurred two weeks earlier.)

Interesting to note that their prior Gibbous Lunation was July 3, 2001 at 23Ari13--conjunct George Bush's n Mc (Aspirations/Career Point)...

"24Ari" = "An open window and a net curtain blowing into a cornucopia."

MUNIFICENCE> pos: an irrepressible genius for capturing the richer rewards of life and providing a wider distribution for the higher realities.

neg/shadow side: a smug and petty self-importance in dispensing favors to others. (MEJ)

This Symbol refers to unmerited good fortune>> 'net' = Neptunian illusions, 'window' = opportunity, 'cornucopia' = trillions of dollars, as it turns out, and you'll notice this Lunation occurred just prior to 9/11.)

4. sec midpoints:

There are two T-squares formed in the sec chart just now (and transit Uranus will be triggering it at the end of March, including during the Solar Eclipse of March 29. >Tr Uranus returns to sec Neptune 13Pis+ in Aug, 2006, and Jan, 2007. And tr Uran to Nep = exploring individuation through creativity, imagination, or speculation; possible use of underhanded means to do the job)...

T-squares:

Sun/Sat = Neptune: physical, emotional, or mental crisis; lack of vitality; inhibitions; hopelessness; delusions in relationships.

>Sun/Sat = tr Uranus: crises within relationships; clash between the old ways vs the new; nervousness; unusual circumstances; separations; mourning.

Sat/Mc = Nep: lack of clarity; peculiar and depressing circumstances; disappointments; one's position is vague; feeling fearful.

>Sat/Mc = tr Uranus: sudden crisis on the job or in the family; new ways of doing
things; desire to obtain one's objectives at all costs; emotional shock or upheaval; intensity.

Midpoints:

Sun/Ven = Mc: the art-lover; individual inclinations.

Sun/Ura = Asc: easily excitable; sudden experiences; new asscociations.

Sun/Nep = optimism in spite of low vitality; achieving success with little exertion.

Moon/Nep = Pluto: high sensitivity coupled with an inclination to be easily influenced.

Ven/Nep = Jupiter: rich imagination; tendency to revel in illusions.

Mars/Ura = Nep: cunning and deceit; a low, mean way of acting; desire to harm others; a person with bad intentions; rage or frenzy.

Uran/Mc = Asc: restless, hasty behavior; sudden adjustment to new circumstances; easily excitable; change that has far-reaching significance.

Nep/Ms = Jupiter: putting all one's eggs in one basket; the pretence of good fortune and happiness; gambling and speculation.

And the real stinker:

Sat/Plu = NN: the misery of the masses; suffering shared with others.

5. Images for Sun Can/Moon Scor blend:

Under a Full Moon an exorcist performs a life-giving ritual; the possession fades away and a child's life is saved...While preparing his genealogical tree, a young man discovers the lost grave of his great-great grandmother.

Greatest Weaknesses (forgot to add this for the D's...will do so asap): Defensiveness; moodiness; possessiveness; proneness to reacting with fanatical prejudice.

6. sec Sun Sag/Moon Gem, March, 2006 (and for about 6 months more):

Robin Hood as a young boy plays truant from school to go to his archery lesson, but ends up teaching his card tricks to his master. (Sounds alot like their "reverse Robin Hood" budget, doesn't it?)

Greatest Weaknesses: spreading yourselves too thin; over-analyzing things: self-absorption.

7. minor midpoints:

Sun/Asc = Jupiter: religious or social outlook; gaining confidence.

Sun/NN = Saturn: disadvantages in dealing with the public; separations.

Sun/Ven = Sat: separations; inhibitions.

Moon/Asc = Sun: seeking contacts.

Moon/Asc = Mars: conflicts with females; moodiness.

Merc/Sat = Sun: changes; separations; love of travel; incompatibility; quarrels.

Mars/Asc = Jup: good teamwork; pursuit of the same objectives.

Mars/NN = Sat: disadvantages through associations; teamwork rendered more difficult as time goes by.

Uran/NN = Moon: quick new contacts; excitability.

>>And a picture that sticks out like a sore thumb--perhaps because R-Party's n Mercury 9Leo+ is conjunct Bush's n Mercury, so both Mercurys are in process of being transited by Saturn, the planet of grim reality--is:

minor Sat/Plu = n Mercury: desire to solve difficult problems; taciturnity; morbid thoughts; depression; stark realism.

Also in their minor chart, a quindecile* (165 degrees = obsession; compulsion) has formed between Venus and Neptune. Venus = values and money, but also cooperation and collaboration in relationships; Neptune = seeking the ideal; illusions and deceptions), so:

Ven QD Nep = may be driven by idealization, illusion, and co-dependency in relationships; fantasy, escapism, addictions, and indulgences may be prominent;
CAN HAVE DIFFICULTY HANDLING FINANCIAL MATTERS. (Sorry--had to capitalize that last, esp since it's the taxpayers who are paying for politicians' wastefulness, graft, and misdirection of OUR money.)

8. Images for minor Sun Sco/Moon Leo:

A Samaritan mirrors the sunshine into the depth of a dark pit bringing hope to those who live there...A sexy superstar creates a new charity. (Hey--wait a ninute--wasn't it Hillary who mentioned the Good Samaritan being arrested under the R's new immigration legislation?)

Well, there ya go--and if you read the Democratic Party analysis below, you'll see that the Dems are in a waxing/increasing phase, while the Repubs have begun the waning/decreasing phase. But there are many days of illusion and deception still to come before they switch masks.

Our two-party system--crisis in action vs crisis in consciousness--and while they Should Be working together for the good of the nation, you see how they've been playing it lately...all they can think of is lining pockets and holding onto their--in many cases--ill-gotten power. That's Their pockets, not ours.

And so, in light of the sorriness of Washington's leadership, and in honor of the protests going on in the world today--and most esp the US Latino protests--let's listen to **Upton Sinclair's plea one more time:

>Is it altogether a Utopian dream, that once in history a ruling class might be willing to make the great surrender, and permit social change to come about without hatred, turmoil, and waste of human life?

Given the state of our nation's capital, and the misguided idealisms of our neocon, globalist-driven politicians, Mr Sinclair, apparently it IS a Utopian dream--and their Utopian dream has become our nightmare.
