The Iraq War 3.19.06



With the Iraq War's 3rd anniversary coming up Sunday (Solar Return>>3.19.06 at 11:01:05 pm, BAT, Baghdad), my plan was to post the Solar Return Chart, but because of recent changes of heart on the part of the American people, I decided to post the War's secondary progressed chart instead...to get some idea of how things will "progress" for 2006.

Here you see what I believe best describes the feelings of the populace--Moon/the Public--opposite sec Atlantis, an asteroid whose keywords are: sense of doom; expiation; ethics. More people have lost confidence in our learless feader, and WILL CONTINUE TO DO SO. This opposition is exact the evening of March 27.

And conjunct Atlantis is the asteroid, Midas, of gold-loving fame, and we've certainly noticed the depletion of the US Treasury over this War--and the administration can't or won't give an honest accounting of where the money went or of what happened to millions in stolen funds.

(And on another level, the sec Moon in this chart also signifies the Iraqi people, but I'm considering the US at the moment since we stirred the hornet's nest, as jihadists correctly expected George would do.)

Also at the end of March, transit Mars will square the War's natal ASC, and oppose its Pluto. (At the end of this post is a link to the Iraq War Chart.)

9th cusp of enemies = "1Sag" = "Grand army of the republic campfire"...that'd be us.

Sec Moon is conjunct South Node, a separative, Saturnian point:

South Node conj Moon = inability to be in the right place at the right time--bad timing--forced to draw upon own resources...can't depend on others' cooperation which leads to isolation....yet discipline and concentrated effort can bring accomplishment.

This is a karmic situation due to misuse of wealth, power, position, or popularity. (But George isn't so popular now...see polls, or ask your neighbor.)

Now for the Sun/Moon personality blend:

Sun Ari/Moon Sag:

Contagious optimism and an entrepreneurial spirit. (Isn't that why neocon hawks took us there in the 1st place with their preening over-confidence out their yazoos?)

Greatest Weaknesses: grandiose philosophizing; insensitivity to human feelings; impatient; moving around and never landing; daredevil tendencies sabotage material security. (That last pretty well sums it up, imho...feelin' safer, are ya? Think there's a gold penny left in Fort Knox? National Debt Limit was boosted just today.)

Image: A child shoots an arrow toward the enchanted castle in the distance as he follows the road less traveled. (There's much to say about that one, but you do it...sounds like 'The Fool' Tarot card to me. The tragedy is that so many have suffered so that George could learn from experience...the essence of The Fool. And I know His Nibs can't or won't see it this way--in fact, I think things are proceeding quite niftily for him--chaos created = mission accomplished.)


>>>Iraq War's Solar Return Mar 19, 2006 11:01:05 pm BAT Baghdad:

ASC> 00Sag06 (see "1Sag" above); Mc> 10Vir24 (conjunct George Bush's natal Mars), so, Mc> "11Vir" = "A boy molded in his mother's aspirations for him." (That's rich, considering Bar's self-described "pretty mind"...seems she wanted a war-president son. And that's "pretty"???)

Sun 29Pis04 in 4th house; Moon 23Sco17 in 12th house (behind-the-scenes);

Chart-ruler, Jupiter 18Sco30 Rx, also in 12th house, at the "A parrot listening then talking" degree. Remember Jupiter was Rx when the War began = bottomless pit in the money department...we attacked from weakness, not strength...for expansion's sake.

Sabian Symbols for Sun and Moon:

Sun "30Pis" = "The great stone face"> Destiny is character as it most consistently constitutes itself. DISCERNMENT> pos: self-integrity in its irresistible impact on the course of events;

neg/shadow side: wholly inarticulate and ineffectual self-realization. (Bush the Dud CEO strikes again?)

Moon "24Sco" = "Crowds coming down the mountain to listen to one man"> APPEAL>
Any higher realization must be brought to earth.

pos: an almost spectacular ability to enlist the higher potentialities of everyone for some practical need of the moment; (the army wants YOU);

neg: indiscriminate and carefree gullibility. (Where's Chalabi--with Waldo?).

Uranus, the rebel, 11Pis46 conjunct Ic 10Pis24...the foundation of the chart...more chaos, disruption, and rebellion...beginning of the Solar year (March 19), and at the end (Ic).

Checking the applying aspects of the Sun to see how things will go for the year (for, as you know, a Solar Return chart lasts a year until the next Return of the Sun to its original degree):

1. Sun trine ASC;
2. conjunct North Node (an important meeting?);
3. trine Saturn;
4. and trine Solar Return Moon!

These are amazingly decent...that'd be good!

BUT: there's a separating square between the Sun and vicious, power-mad Pluto which will be an exact (partile) square at the end of December, 2007 due to the fact that Pluto moves much more slowly than the Sun seems to move.

And fretfully, this will be part of Pluto's sojourn at the 'crisis or critical' degree of 29 Sag>>just before Pluto enters Capricorn, sign of authority, law, politics, and business.


The personality blend for 2006:

Sun Pis/Moon Sco = tremendous passion; complex, unfathomable emotional nature; acute perceptions; tenacity and courage in the face of adversity; innate ability to understand great mysteries.

Greatest Weaknesses: over-reliance on personal opinions; tendency to be unaware of irrational suspicions and prejudices; manipulation in order to gain power; negative self-absorption.

Images: Steinbeck's The Grapes of Wrath...Longfellow's poem, The Secret of the Sea.

Wrath, secrets, passions, courage, suspicions...and our boots on their holy sand.

Speak up, People!
