Astrology of the presidential candidates

If you're a blogger like me--doing this work to get out info rather than for money--you wonder how to find time to do full justice to Political Astrology (actually called, Mundane Astrology) especially with the upcoming 2008 election vulturing over us.

Some weeks seem to have more blogging time factored into them, other weeks...not so much.

Well, no more fretting is necessary for I've received a communique from someone with a terrific Astrology website which covers the stars--natal and current transits--of both Democratic and Republicanic candidates.

Check out The Strange House as soon as you may!

Gitmo and the cocaine plane?

Legit Gov Breaking News


Guantanamo transport plane crashes with four tons of cocaine on board --Who owned drug plane that crashed in Mexico? 27 Sep 2007:

U.S. authorities are assisting the Mexican government in the investigation of an American business jet that crashed in Cancun this week with four tons of cocaine on board, officials said Thursday. Some news reports have linked the plane to the transport of terrorist suspects to the U.S. detention center at Guantanamo Bay, Cuba, but those reports cite logs that indicate only that the plane flew twice between Washington, D.C., and Guantanamo and once between Oxford, Conn., and Guantanamo.

pouting Peter Pace punted



General Peter Pace will "step down" as head of the Joint Chiefs of Staff effective Monday, Oct 1. He was second in command during the Iraq invasion, as you know.

Seems his opinions irked someone--his natal chart (Nov 5, 1945; Brooklyn, NY; birth time unknown) shows him to be a principled fellow which only works with this administration as long as you're agreeing with all their views.

Following are a few of my notes on his natal chart:

A New Moon type is emotional (see below), impulsive, and subjective which is underlined by the fact that Scorpio is a Water sign and Pace is a double Water personality (or triple Water if his Ascending sign is Cancer, Scorpio, or Pisces.)

Life may be lived as if it's but a dream--or merely a screen upon which to project one's image. People and events tend to become symbols without much regard for what they actually are, and the self is projected upon others and upon the world (The Lunation Cycle, Rudhyar.)


His Mars/Saturn conj in Cancer (and neither planet is comfortable in watery Cancer) indicates some fatherly restrictions on his Mars principle ("I act") and can seriously affect his self-confidence.

Hmmm...a warrior/soldier with Mars conj Saturn? this combo is like driving with the brakes on. At best it gives a serious attitude toward life and toward one's actions.

And his Jupiter/Chiron conj gives him a yearning for the mystical plus strong convictions which must be communicated. This may have gotten him in hot water if he didn't always parrot the Bush-Cheney line.

Since the Moon was in Scorpio during the 24-hour period, we may use Sco/Sco as Pace's Watery Sun/Moon personality blend. The Water/Water personality can gush with feelings and dissolve into tears with sentimentality which probably accounts for his expressed desire to go all huggy on his soldiers.

Water/Water types don't have an easy time with objectivity or with well-reasoned arguments. How they personally feel about people and situations IS their reality. They tend to cling to relationships whether it's best for them or not.

The conjunction of Jup/Chiron can be emotionally overwhelmed too--yet it's also the 'maverick with a superiority complex' and who may suffer from boundary problems (Clow, Chiron.)

Sun Sco/Moon Sco: intense; stubborn; passionate; wary--this blend is uncompromising with its convictions. This can be the quiet rebel due to a mistrust of authority figures (Mars conj Saturn suports this); sheer drive and stamina with astute observational ability added to loyalty but may become vindictive when threatened (perhaps we have another Bush-bashing book on the way?)

Greatest Weaknesses: suspicions and cynicism limit capacity for life's enjoyments; takes oneself too seriously; reluctance to share fears; desire for revenge; may get stuck in negative emotions.

Images for Integration: A pile of manure slowly permeates the deeper soil as the November rains soak the still, dark garden...A millionaire businessman establishes a foundation for medical research.

Interesting word pictures.

If you click the chart to enlarge you'll see these midpoint pictures listed which are in effect no matter the birth time:

Uranus/Neptune = Pluto: the big picture demands a certain course of action which must be followed--very little option to do otherwise (this pic was an influence for the 9/11 attacks, imho); inclination to remain at the mercy of external conditions and circumstances without taking a firm stand; abandoning resistance; calamities, catastrophes; an easily-impressed person.

Mercury/Pluto = Neptune: over-receptivity; pursuit of peculiar plans; cunning; falsehood; slander and defamation (as with every factor in Astrology and in life, these may operate in both directions); overdoing issues drains energy and wears out one's welcome (is this part of his "stepping down"?)

Venus/Neptune = Jupiter: extremely emotional; a painful renunciation.


Pace's Pre-natal Eclipse Series (PE) is 1 North (1N) which is the same Series in which the Mother of All Eclipses occurred--Nostradamus' King of Alarm Eclipse which manifested on August 11, 1999 and basically began our 'New Millenium' along with the Pluto/Chiron conjunction of Dec 30, 1999.

Brady's Predictive Astrology gives the 1N Series as: unexpected events loom large--avoid hasty decisions since information may be distorted and possibly false.

Sounds like Washington's favorite way of doing things lately, doesn't it?


Here's the Wiki bio on him if you please.

Sun Sign, Moon Sign, Chas and Suzy Harvey; midpoint pics: Tyl; Ebertin)

Pace's New Moon personality is shared natally by: Lyndon B. Johnson, Woodrow Wilson, Queen Victoria, Clara Barton, and Gamal Nasser.

Plutocracy and Ron Paul

Ron Paul fights plutocracy but I don't see how much further he can get, do you?

genomes of the evil gnomes?

Ethnic weapons is a collection of several articles which were brought to my attention some months ago and which I've just today gotten round to reading.

Chilling.

Thanks to the Anonymous commenter for the link.

And on second thought, perhaps what I thought was a biased comment last week is connected to the research mentioned above...the comment concerned hive collapse disorder being an "Israeli virus."

a coup has occurred

'A Coup Has Occurred'

By Daniel Ellsberg

If there's another 9/11 under this regime ... it means that they switch on full extent all the apparatus of a police state that has been patiently constructed, largely secretly at first but eventually leaked out and known and accepted by the Democratic people in Congress, by the Republicans and so forth.

Ellsberg's article from Information Clearing House, police state brought to you by the New World Order folks and their friends.

There were catcalls for Robert Gates today on Capitol Hill? Excellent!!! Does us no good, but excellent all the same. The $450 billion the US has already spent on Iraq has not made the US "safer" (as Senator Bird said)--"safer" would be difficult since the coup is happening from within with the foxes guarding the you-know-what!

Yes, the bankrupting of America was on display once again today in Washington, m'peops, as per George W. Bush's instructions. You may not be a conspiracy theorist now but when military rule is declared and America is financially bereft as written, you'll say Doh! I should've paid more attention.

We the people must prevail or America shall disappear into the dustbin of history with an underhanded boost from the European hierarchies. Just don't say you didn't know.

more on tonight's Aries Full Moon

Space Weather News for Sept. 26, 2007

HARVEST MOON: There's a full Moon tonight (Wed., Sept. 26) and it has a special name--the "Harvest Moon," the full Moon closest to the autumnal equinox. In the days before electric lights, farmers relied on moonlight to help them gather ripening autumn crops. The bright Harvest Moon allowed their work to continue late into the night. Now, post-Edison, we appreciate the Harvest Moon more for its beauty than its utility. Moonrise happens tonight at sunset; look east and enjoy the view!

AURORA WATCH: Northern fall has begun with a vibrant flourish of green--that is, green Northern Lights. A solar wind stream hit Earth on Sept. 21st sparking an intense, three-day display of polar auroras. Get ready for more: Another solar wind stream is due on Sept. 27th or 28th.

Aries Full Moon 9.26.07

Wednesday's Full Moon 3Aries20 (3:45 pm edt) is in 2nd house of money when set for the White House, with Sun 3Lib20 in 8th house of other people's money. Asking for more millions for Iraq? Fluctuations (Moon) in earning ability (such as the UAW strikers)? It's the Resources axis, the 2/8.

Rising 24Cap16, chart-ruler Saturn 2Vir57 is in 7th house of Partnerships, legal affairs, and open enemies, along with Venus 22Leo11, still in mutual reception with the Sun.

Jupiter/MC is at "1Sag", the "A Grand Army of the Republic campfire" degree (Jones.)

Jup/MC = legalisms; success; recognition; sense of purpose.

Did I mention that the Sun is partile (exactly) conjunct one of Jayne's Hypothethetical planets, Lion? Keywords: synthesis and integration; understanding; education; civilization.

A Full Moon is the culmination of the cycle which began at the last New Moon
which was the Sept 11 Solar Eclipse when something needed releasing for progress to be made. (I say the American people release the Bush administration from further fascist tinkering under the hood of our government.)

Aries is impulsive and independent, sign of the pioneer. Libra is socially sensitive so there may be a battle between self-interests and compromise which will be most noticeable in the area of relationships (the 1/7, Ari/Lib axis.)

Libra is the sign of diplomacy so more of that--or the current lamentable lack of it--may continue to be in the news, with Aries ruled by Mars, god of war.

Perhaps Mercury's entry into secretive Scorpio on Thursday will bring intell to light which may be useful in diplomatic circles--it's what the government tends to do with intell that concerns me.

Then contentious Mars finally leaves Gemini and enters homebody Cancer's sign on Friday. Turf-protection!

Yes, Mars is finally past his opposition with Pluto but he is at 29Gem00 in the Full Moon chart--and 29 degr is a crisis degree. It also indicates that Mars is straining and impatient to enter Cancer. (Perhaps the US has had a visitor who would like to go home now...?)

The Full Moon's Mars is ruler of 10th house of Career/Public Status...16Sco56, near the "15Sco" "Eagle Point."

And Mercury, planet of communication and thinking, is at 29Lib02 in 9th house of Philosophy, Religion, Higher Education, and Foreign Travel. Mercury trines Mars within 3 minutes, but separating since Mercury is the faster-moving of the two.

9th house's natural ruler, Jupiter (13Sag38) is still within orb of US natal ASC...and Mr. Moneybags is strong and sassy in his own sign.

The only planet stressing this Full Moon in applying aspect is Neptune 19AQ34 Rx--from 1st house. But Chiron 10AQ45 Rx rises first--conj Cheney's natal Sun.

Neptune is semi-square the Moon, and sesquisquare the Sun. Both aspects are irritatingly frustrating and nagging, and can often have health connotations.

There's more info available from the excellent StarIQ.com if you'd care to check it out.

And for Sabian Symbol details try Lynda Hills' Sabian Symbols because I'm only including an appropriate-for-DC Symbol for this Full Moon and Lynda has a lot more...

"3Ari"..."A cameo profile of a man in the outline of his country"...EXPLOITATION...

pos: man's capacity for giving full play to every ramification of the reality he has created for himself;

neg/shadow side: an unimaginative conventionality which leaves him in bondage to every current stereotype of human relations.
