Colorado Fireball and Inauguration 2009

Space Weather News for Dec 6, 2008

COLORADO FIREBALL: Last night, a fireball one hundred times brighter than the full Moon lit up the sky near Colorado Springs, Colorado.

Astronomer Chris Peterson photographed the event using an all-sky video camera dedicated to meteor studies. "In seven years of operation, this is the brightest fireball I've ever recorded. I estimate the terminal explosion at magnitude -18."

Meteors this bright are called superbolides; they are caused by small (meter-class) asteroids and are likely to pepper the ground with meteorites when they explode.

Visit SpaceWeather.com to watch the fireball video and contribute sighting reports that could help pinpoint any meteoritic debris.

TUMBLING TOOLBAG: The space station's famous sidekick, the ISS Toolbag, is circling Earth and reportedly producing flashes of light bright enough to record using off-the-shelf digital cameras.

The flashes, shown in a photo on today's edition of Spaceweather.com, could be a sign that the bag is tumbling. Both the Toolbag and the ISS will be making a series of evening passes over North America and Europe in the evenings ahead, so now is a good time to look.

Notice the number lately of reports of 'fireball' sightings?

Chunky visitors from orbits unknown?

Or perhaps 'Star Wars' remnants + satellites of surveillance + mind control + electromagnetic experiments + Pentagon beams + digital tv as of Feb 17, 2009...any or all are peeking through the veil of consciousness from the shadows of the collective unconscious.

You know the joke about 'drinking the Kool-Aid'? Don't scoff too quickly.

Actually, a "wholly epochal transition" has already occurred - Dec 2, 1942, 3:01 pm LMT, Chicago, Illinois, when the atom was "harnessed"...Saturn Rx conj Uranus Rx in early Gemini, in 1st house. Saturn (boundaries, form) harnessed Uranian energy...and enriched uranium has been sought ever since.

And yet astrologers know that Prometheus unbound has much deeper meaning to humankind than a difficult science problem successfully solved and brought from abstraction to fulfillment in the physical realm, invented for presidents to exercise America's 'awesome and ultimate power' - as if by God Himself.

That 2008 has been a year of Saturn's opposition to Uranus (Prometheus) is significant in the nuclear 'race' (Saturn conj Uranus = start of a cycle) or as some people say, the biggest stick with which to control the masses...nuke fear.

Rising at 3:01 pm in the Atomic Energy chart (as given by Dr. Marc Edmund Jones) is 13Tau30, an Ascendant degree that is less than 1 degree from the 'US Presidency' Ascendant on Jan 20 at noon in Washington, DC. The ASC is the WHAT? Point of any chart.

At the WHY? Point, or Midheaven (MC) is 25Capricorn, appr 1 degr from the Inaugural MC degree and this time (Jan 20, 2009) the highest point of the chart, the MC/Goal Point, will be the transiting midpoint of Pluto/Chiron, the isms duo of fascism, totalitarianism, racism, corporatism, disenfranchisement, primal violence, and oppression...in other words, plutocracy.

And to pile on at MC on Jan 20, 2009, noon, is US natal Pluto, planet of plutonium and atomic power.

Now I'm tender hearted and don't appreciate typing this cr*p out for you to read; plus, you might be happier if you didn't read it. But if you've gotten this far, you may as well allow me to finish...

Man will not finish this Earth. God will decide when that's to be, and how. So we can forget the usual Hollywood movie scenarios, or classic or modern sci-fi stories or books. The idea that other worlds have creatures that arrive in Earth's vicinity bwo cigar-shaped hovercraft is ridiculous.

That there are other worlds and beings is a given, however.

"In My Father's house are many mansions. If it were not so, I would've told you," Jesus answered his Disciples when asked if this were the only created world.

My studies indicate that if knowing there are other worlds (unfallen worlds) were necessary to our salvation, we would've been clued in about it big time. It's comforting to know, but it's not the key to Eternal Life.

So...please don't let the fireballs spook ya! They're either asteroid/meteor displays, space junk burning up in the atmosphere, or...the Pentagon or other groups playin' around with their hi-tech toys to the world's detriment. They're the ones we should all keep our eyes on.

And on a lighter note...

John Malkovich was funny on SNL earlier, and it was great to see Amy Poehler back at the salt mine and giving out da nooze. Amy's impersonation of Hillary tickles me. And she really laughs like that - rather creepily.

OMG!! Eternal life-I gave in a long time ago and said to myself and to anyone, anything, whatever I have no idea how I got here and I have no idea how everything got statrted. so I am finished and I don't care but I do know that everything has worked out so far.
Colorado springs is a scarey place and I wouldn't be surprised to find out that some crazy Air Force attempt to reach Jesus by sending a a sattelite to Jesus or maybe just to spy on his teenagers.
they say that we will hate Pluto n Capricorn but I for one look forward to the no fun outlook of Capricorn after the years of religion Christianity,Hebrew,Islam and anything else. I grew so sick of the questions and the answers.

Hi clymela,

I know what you mean about organized religions which are, after all, run by frail human beings for their own purposes.

Yet I believe there is a spiritual church of Christ which has nothing to do with big organizations. You've noticed how when groups grow larger they tend to become corrupt.

For me (and this is a personal weblog which is why I mentioned such subjects) the hope of Eternal Life is the only way to get by in this world...the idea of seeing loved ones again keeps me going! If I had to go around thinking this was all there is, I'm not sure how I'd treat others, much less make it through the tough times.

And in Astrology, we see God's creation - the Great Mathematician setting up our Cosmic Clock, the solar system with planets orbiting and marking our earthly Time for us, with the Moon set in place to light the darkness.


Hope you have a great week, clymela!

Hi Ladies.
Maybe, just maybe, the science of this thing we call life, when it unfolds a little more, will be fascinating enough to tweak our interest in living.

Fire, electricity. Both brought light and warmth and were naturally occurring in the universe we live in, but needed to be discovered and harnessed. So much more waits to be seen.

I used to live in Colorado Springs when it was a "town of many colors." It was a great place for new ideas, spiritual learning and astrology. A good friend who lives there now says the mood has shifted dramatically - where folks calling themselves good Christians don't see the silliness of having to announce such a thing - shouldn't it be obvious if they are?

Anyway, back to the kind of world we would like to live in. I am excited about witnessing the continuing unfolding of more "magic" like electricity, magnetism, visions of reality unfolding right beside us that we didn't know were there a moment before. And, I find a closeness with the deceased, with the next moment as of yet unarrived, the tension in a room where an argument played out. There is much to know here. And it could be very useful to be informed.

An afterlife, I believe, is what we expect to experience. Since thought creates reality, as we know it, then if we want to see loved ones when we die we will. I for one am planning on joining the particles of soul stuff in the heavens above the clouds, above my head and in the earth below my feet. "A Childhood's End," by CSLewis was shocking to me when I read it, but reassures me now. It is the quality of fodder that I will leave for the creation of others that occupies my thoughts when considering, "afterlife." Maybe it is another state we just don't understand yet given our shared and rooted assumptions.

Sleep tight.

Yes, Donna, it should be obvious without announcing it. So when it's announced by a politician or used in their career, i go: uh-huh.

We're also not to announce our charitable actions and gifts, or pray in public for display as evangelical tv 'stars' do!

Colorado Springs back then sounds lovely - i don't know what it's like to live in a place that doesn't look down on Astrology - something they know nothing about! jude
