Strobe Talbott interview on Obama administration

Der Speigel has published an interesting interview with Strobe Talbott concerning a cautious Obama administration and its 'global citizen' intentions.

You know the 'cautious globalist' description falls snuggly between Barack Obama's Saturn, happily placed in traditional, cautious Capricorn, sign of politics, law, and business, and Saturn's out-of-sign conjunction with Jupiter, placed within the first degree of the sign of the progressive citizen of the world, Aquarius.

I believe Obama's out-of-sign conjunction of the two societal planets, Saturn and Jupiter, works well for him because Cap and AQ share rulers unlike any other side-by-side signs.

Saturn rules Cap and is the 'ancient' ruler of Aquarius. Some astrologers (present company included) use Saturn as ruler of AQ with Uranus, discovered in 1781, as co-ruler or higher octave...influential, but too far away and unpredictable to be 'ruler' of any sign.

Having an emphasis on Cap-Saturn energy in my natal chart, I guess that's just the way I roll - it's traditional rulers for this Saturnian astrologer who 'sees' heredity, DNA, and family myths rather than 'past lives' in Astrology charts.

But don't leave out the mystical realm!

Conjecturing out of your ass or what? I am very tired of astrologers predicting, analyzing or rationalizing anything to do with Obama when his birth certificate has not been verified. Simple as that, you see what you want to see. Until we know what time and day he was born, FOR CERTAIN, save the sanctimony and the chart casting.

Too many astrologers rather be flakes and biased than observant.

In spite of your crudeness i'm publishing your comment in all its instructive splendor.

Unless Obama was born on a completely different day - or perhaps month - Jupiter and Saturn were conjunct by a closer or a wider orb.

Do you bounce around blogs that have Astrology involved so you can be rude and make a point that shows ignorance of the subject you critique?

Why would no one be surprised that you blab as 'Anonymous'? Puh!

Besides, that's the beauty of blogs - if you don't like one you land on, you've risked nothing and can simply high tail it down the cyberbunny trail.

Adios, Jude

ps: for a boatload of sanctimony, see your comment.
