Here's a Three Article Round-Up beginning with Sibel Edmonds on secret (Neptune) government (Saturn), then on to fascism (Saturn/Neptune and Pluto/Chiron), then it's oppression (Pluto/Chiron) and thoughts on why we're so wimpy when it comes to fighting against it.
Hmm. Didn't realize we had stopped. Of course, doing things by increments as they've done for years makes drift harder to fight than an out-and-out confrontation, doesn't it?
After the 3 articles you'll find a little Astrology concerning the Saturn/Neptune cycles of 1952/53 and 1989, and brief notes on the Solar Eclipse cycle that links them:
Secret Reports, Secret Budgets, Secret Operations, Secret Courts...A Secret Government!
By Sibel Edmonds
If these points don't sound outrageous and if they don't make the state of our liberties look dire and pathetic, then we are all in deep trouble.
American Fascism: By political definition the US is now fascist, not a constitutional republic
By Carl Herman
The definition of "fascism" has some academic variance, but is essentially collusion among corporatocracy, authoritarian government, and controlled media and education. This "leadership" is only possible with a nationalistic public accepting policies of war, empire, and limited civil and political rights.
Are Americans a Broken People? Why We've Stopped Fighting Back Against the Forces of Oppression
By Bruce E. Levine
A psychologist asks: Have consumerism, suburbanization and amalevolent corporate-government partnership so beaten us down that we no longer have the will to save ourselves?
~:~
The Last Two Great Conjunctions (3x due to retrogradations) of Saturn and Neptune whose energies together represent on one level "secret government" or a government and leaders full of secrets and deceptions, and/or a misguided or deceitful (Nep) leader (Sat):
As you know in Astrology, any conjunction of two planets signifies a start of a new cycle of activity and influence and we've recently been under the influence of their opposition (180 degrees apart.) Oppositions are culmination stages of what was begun at the conjunction - thus, has America's reputed 'secret government' always been running in the background or is it a decades-long phenomenon?
And as always with Astrology, many levels of meaning accrue to the Sat/Nep pairing but for now let's merely look at the their last conjunctions and discuss which Solar Eclipse Series manifested as the Pre-Natal Eclipse prior to the first of both sets of conjunctions.
Separately both Saturn and Neptune can bring along issues of loss or theft, and their cyclical opposition presided over 2008's financial collapse as the culmination or fulfillment of the 'new activities' cycle begun in 1989 (Reagan and Bush Sr.) And of course, 1952/53 tabs Harry Truman (in office until Jan 20, 1953) and his successor, Dwight D. Eisenhower (Jan 20, 1953 - Jan 20, 1961.) All or most of these well-connected men were Freemasons, with atom-bomber Truman the 33rd president, significant due to the importance in Freemasonry of the number 33. "Give 'em hell, Harry" indeed. You'll reap what you sowed, Mr. Truman.
Yes, one of the thinnest moral justifications (rationalizations) I've ever come across out of Washington DC is the one about how Truman dropped bombs on Japan to 'save' lives by ending the war! Now that may or may not have been true, but it was hardly a moral trade-off that justified the loss of life and suffering their atom bomb decision engendered for generations - and it was pure choice on the part of the US government. That a natural law was broken when the first atom was split didn't seem to bother them either.
Okay, that last was pure opinionl here's the way the Saturn/Neptune tango played out:
Saturn conj Neptune (appr 36-year cycle):
1. Nov 21, 1952 @ 22Lib47;
2. May 1, 1953 @ 22Lib30;
3. July 22, 1953 @ 21Lib12. (All are within the 15Lib-15Sco Via Combusta yet are conj two Fixed Stars that are bright spots in the 'Burning Way': Arcturus ('a different approach; success through patient work') and Spica ('potential for brilliance; victory; riches.')
1. Mar 3, 1989 @ 11Cap55;
2. June 24, 1989 @ 11Cap14;
3. Nov 13, @ 10Cap22.
(The next Great Conjunction of Sat/Nep will be a big deal for the world - conj the Aries Point on Feb 20, 2026 @ 00Ari45. Transiting Pluto will be in early Aquarius by then but will move into 5-degr orb of the 1989 conj beginning in 2010.)
The Solar Eclipse Series which occurred prior to the first of their conjunctions in 1953 and the first in 1989 is the same Series! Another way to state it is that both Sat/Nep conjs of 1952 and 1989 occurred under the auspices of the 8 South Series, a difficult family indicating: finishing something, being sadly parted, separation and loss; physical injury through over straining one's strength. (paraphrasing Brady's Predictive Astrology
The last manifestation of 8S was on Sept 22, 2006 @ 29Vir30.
11S is also the PE of the Lockerbie Bombing over Scotland (1988), NASDAQ (1971), Nixon's deceptive 'Checkers' speech (1952), and of George Tenet, Vladimir Putin, William Kristol, Patrick Henry, and of Bush Sr's NWO-touting presidency. You notice the spy/saboteur flavors here.
So I guess it's little wonder that so many folks are experiencing loss of all kinds under the rays of Saturn/Neptune, losses made more personal for Americans because of the recent grim-reality/cold-water transit of Saturn to our natal Neptune in Virgo, sign of Work and Workers.
Of olden days or newly established, the secret government of the US is firmly in place, m'peops. Each presidency is but a baton-passing of the ultimate plan held in store and patiently implementd by stages.
Has our will to fight gone? No. But they keep us fighting strangers in distant lands so that we can't fight our real enemy - an amoral secret government.

Pentagon natal chart w/ Jan 15, 2010 Solar Eclipse chart @ 25Cap01
Here is a bi-wheel display of the natal chart of the Pentagon (center: Apr 29, 1942 @ 10:30 am edt; Hour of Jupiter 21Gem00 conjunct US natal Mars; out-of-bounds Mars 2Can02 conj US n Venus, and here flanked by the chart of the Jan 15, 2010 Solar Eclipse @ 25Cap01 in the 12 North Series (outer chart.)
Eclipse chart has tr South Node 21Can07 rising: standing alone or separating oneself; outstanding in one's field. Or - facing more war without allies? Broken partnerships?
Some feisty factors in the Pentagon's natal chart include:
Warring Mars = Saturn/Pluto = Uranus/Pluto...
Sat/Pluto = Mars: brutality, assault, violence, ruthlessness; the necessity to fight for one's existence (ex: by recommending war escalation in 2009 after 8 years of it? - jc); activating plans for upheaval and destruction; using whatever means or power available in order to continue working.
Uran/Pluto = Mars: fanaticism; acts of violence; the mania of destruction; the stage of bending or breaking; injury or accident; headstrong and demanding when pushing ideas.
There is an important T-Square in the Pentagon's natal chart which forms an interesting view of the 5-pointed star's complex and its military industrialists...
Neptune/Mc = Mars: acting without clear understanding or purpose; desire to bring wrong ideas into realization; urge to harm others; metaphysical studies. (Ebertin.)
Michael Munkasey gives details about the combination of nebulous, idealistic dreamer Neptune when blended with Mc (Goals; Aspirations) which seem apt of late:
'Nept/Mc' = "dreams of being a leader in the "New Age"; hints about planning for the future originate within dreams and visions of the leadership; spies undermine national security; increased likelihood that leaders will allow others to deceive them about intentions and motives; official scandals of a very large scope.
Click to enlarge the chart to read my scribbly notes: a few US natal and US Inaugural 2009 positions are noted - such as the Jan 2010 Ecl conj Inaugural 2009's Mc; the Solar Ecl chart is highlighted in pink; Pentagon's natal chart in yellow; in lower right corner I have notated a telling midpoint picture involving Mercury 5Cap34 Rx (which means the Nep/Asc degree of the Jan 15, 2010 chart will be triggered by tr Mercury again - see below for pictures.)
Nep/Asc also affects Pluto 3Cap49 (Pluto here opposing US n Venus, then on to oppose US n Jupiter and Sun...'power plays' - 'no one is impressed' - 'material matters, values, principles, and priorities are in conflict with current circumstances' - 'aspirations should be reduced' - 'locked in power struggles' - 'economics unfavored.')
Following the natural cycle of US Secondary Progressed Full Moon (exact in Dec 2008 when based on the US n 'Sibly' chart) would be the sane idea than to contiune expanding in the world when a natural barrier (30-year-cycle of Sec Moon) has been reached; our power limits in the world are known, we should withdraw and regroup, oh war-loving Pentagon. There is no dishonor in 'regrouping forces to plan anew" as says the I Ching. But you must 'justify' your jobs with more imaginary - and real - threats to tilt at.
The full effects of tr Pluto opposing US natal Venus, Jupiter, and Sun in Cancer (2 - 14 Can) will not end until 2015/16 or so. Soon after, tr Pluto will move into orb of opposition with our Rx US n Mercury '25Can' -- as you see, our national Mercury will be opposed on Jan 15, 2010 by the Solar Eclipse in the 12 North Series - with all the mercurial implications that entails: communications, trade, commerce, transportations, plans, thinking processes -- and the 12N Ecl triggers our natal Mercury/Pluto opposition of propaganda and outrageous plans for power.
Btw: 'Nep/Asc' is considered a 'crooks and liars' midpoint by Reinhold Ebertin...
12N's Nep/Asc = Mercury: raising questions about others' motives and attitudes; discussions about one's visions' impact on lives; reading others in business situations; being guided by wrong impressions or perceptions; taking the wrong path; malicious scheming; deceiving oneself about other people's characters; exploiting the weakness of others.
12N's Nep/Asc = Pluto: harm or damage through deceit, libel, or malice from others; creating plans for evolving and selling schemes of power; using pressure to sell your ideas; not caring if facts presented are false as long as they properly serve your needs; underhanded transactions.
Sounds too familiar, no?
Jan 15, 2010: 12N's key concepts: opportunities to accept greater responsibilities and commitments come along suddenly due to another person's inability to carry on; events that herald these opportunities may be difficult but outcomes are good. (paraphrasing Brady's Predictive Astrology.)
In her book, Eclipses, Celeste Teal titles this Solar Eclipse as "Ceremony fit for a king' and says it portends for the US a ceremony of some kind involving a prominent person and puts a focus on national affairs (not another 'new president'! We already have one, thanks); 'power and vigor are fused; education and science benefit'; plus, 'neighboring nations are friendly.' Teal also says there may be a death of a wealthy person from within scientific, legal, or religious realms. Will this be the one who needs replacing?
United Nations:
The 12N Solar Ecl will oppose the *UN's natal Mars/Saturn conjunction in Cancer (23:59 - 24:45; tr Pluto now conj UN's n SN 3Cap05), an opposition that may trigger into action Mars/Saturn's usual stop-go energy and emphasize it, if not point out its weakenesses; police or military (Mars) control and authority(Saturn.)
Afghanistan:
Afghanistan's natal chart of July 17, 1973 will be affected by the 12N Eclipse: its natal Sun 24Can06 conj n Ic 24:17 will be opposed by the Jan 15, 2010 Eclipse indicating conflict and weakenings brought by the US. As noted in a previous post, the July 21/22, 2009 Solar Eclipse precisely conjuncts Afhganistan's n Mercury 29Can42 Rx in n 4th house, so as astrologer Funkstar noted in Comments recently, that's two Solar Eclipses (in a row) triggering major points - n Sun and Mercury - in Afghanistan's chart.
Plus, transiting Saturn is conjoining Afghanistan's n Pluto 2Lib00 in n 6th house, but in off-and-on fashion, which describes a period when use of power and control are big issues, and situations are simply too large to handle - thus, collapse is possible. Given Saturn's ongoing transit to US n Mc 00Lib53 (Sibly chart), it's an easy read to see that America's Saturnian controls are to be applied to Afghanistan's power principle and perhaps to its secret manipulators (Pluto) - deep resources such as gas and its pipelines (Pluto) are to be forced under US control as well.
NYSE's natal chart also influenced by the Jan 15, 2010 Solar Elipse:
One thing extra to mention concerning the NYSE's natal chart is the current ongoing transit of Mars in Leo, here @ 15Leo17 Rx - altogether it's 33 weeks of feisty contentiousness in the showy, dramatic sign of Leo, the 'natural ruler' so we get Mars-to-n-Uranus for the NYSE, a period when others' actions may trigger one to act out of character (honestly instead of deceptively? - jc); unusal or nontraditional people may be encountered as well as dangerous situations; new techniques or methods are introduced; enthusiastic participations in unusual groups or new partnerships are undertaken.
Back to the Pentagon's Chart with Solar Ecl Jan 15, 2010
Pentagon's n Venus 23Pis03 (Pisces, sign of generals in war) is now being transited off and on by Uranus 23Pis32. Uranus-to-n-Venus is a time of partneership endings, joint venture stoppages, and new relationships forming. These new relationships, however, need other factors on which to depend for continuance. This transit brings unpredictable changes within partnerships, for better or worse; more independence is required. (See chart's SN rising, too.)
Unexpected or unusual alliances may be established (such as those the US needs for fighting more war? This sounds a lot like a Venus Transit or Occultation such as the one of June 2004 at the G-8 Summit on Sea Island, GA, near Jekyll Island where the Fed monster was frankensteined together in Dec 1913.) I mention it because Venus Transits are times when unexpected alliances are formed in secret.
Of concern come the first half of 2010 (as influenced by the Jan 15 Eclipse in Capricorn, sign of law, business, and politics) is that the Pentagon's 'dedication' Sun 24Cap42 (Sun @ Mc 1:17:45 pm EWT on Jan 15, 1943, Pentagon, Arlington, VA - chart not shown) will be eclipsed by the Jan 15, 2010 lunation.
Plus, the next Solar Eclipse of July 11, 2010 @ 19Can24 in the 12 South Series will eclipse the Pentagon's 'dedication' Jupiter 19Can36 Rx, conj difficult Fixed Star Castor, which Anthony Louis gives as: 'crippling of limbs; murder; sudden fame or loss; mental illness.' (Horary Astrology Plain & Simple.)
This is the same degree - 19Can - of the 11S, the current Series from July 21, 2009 @ 29Can27 (11S manifested @ '19Can' in 1991) Eclipse of July 11, 1991, when writer Danny Casolaro was murdered because his research came too close to the 'octopus' which is basically the world crime syndicate we now deal with and suffer from - the one that participated in the crash of our financial system 2008 and the one that thrives on war-profiteering and collapsing nations that dare litter its path.
11S = 'Any blocks or obstacles may be tragically or violently removed.' (Brady.) And Danny Casolaro was an obstacle to their plans and to keepng their names and criminal activities out of mainstram awareness. (Subliminal note: Bush Sr & pals.)
You see, in 1991, Danny Casolaro was about to disclose new info on PROMIS software whose progeny now tracks financial transactions the world over including bin Laden's. Tech innovations ensued, and a 'follow the money' tactic never worked so good as it does now - if you actually want to find or interfere with someone's criminal actions. Mr. Casolaro was investigating this and other plutonian subjects relating to the establishment of the NWO; the theft of PROMIS software was in court as the Inslaw case.
So will a military leader be eclipsed in some way in early 2010? Will he be the one who needs replacing?
America has quite a few oldsters of wealth and power whose races are nearly run so besides 'fete-ing' kings or princes, we may have a slew of official funerals on our national menu. Venerable Senator Robert Byrd's name comes readily to mind.
Well, that's a fairly good start on the Pentagon's natal chart with Jan 15, 2010 Solar Eclipse influences, though there's always more to say. So if you, dear reader, have insights to add to the picture, please do so as you wish. It would be greatly appreciated around here!

Surveilling Americans: Yahoo's 'spying guide' published
Surveilling Americans' communications is big business for telecoms, isp companies, and Yahoo! who just had its 'spying guide' published.
Like picking up an alligator by its tail, we may now view the unseemly, rather slimy underbelly of the Aquarian Aged internet with its tech revolution.
They see us when we're blogging they know when we're a-twit
ignore the Constitution we'll soon need none of it
Obama's in the White House like Bush he wants to spy
on dollar bills we find Big Brother staring from his Eye.

Matt Taibbi on Obama's Big Sellout to Wall Street
In a Dec 9, 2009 Rolling Stone article, Matt Taibbi details Obama's big sellout to Wall Street.
One had to figure we were being plunged deeper into doo-doo soup when newly minted president, Barack Obama, quickly surrounded himself with Clintonites of a lofty (if self-promotional) variety. Why, he simply filled his cabinet with spawn-of-robber-baron curios who bed down near their Wall Street troughs!
Exalted professors can rob you blind as well as street fighters like Bush, Cheney, and Rove can, y'know.
And as typed previously (ad nauseum for me, too) Jan 20, 2009's Inaugural in DC was but another 'peaceful' baton-passing of presidential imperatives which are agreed to beforehand by the prospective White House mouthpiece, aka presidential shill for the new world order.
No, it never leaves me:
The sense that America's natal degree of moneybags Jupiter (the archetypal professor, lawyer, banker, actor, and seeker) is @ '6 Cancer' from July 4, 1776 = "Gamebirds Feathering Their Nests"...not your threadbare nests, common worker pawn...their cushy nests.
Because they want more cushy. And they intend to get it, too.
Do you assume differently?
Well, now I know why President Obama didn't 'go to work on Wall Street after Harvard' as his fable touted loudly during the 2008 campaign...someone knew he'd be a contender for the Oval Office one day, and we-the-people had to believe that Senator Obama would be iikely to do something about greedily out-of-control, corrupt bankers.
Rock Me Gently
The 'Oval Office' borrows from ancient symbols of fertile Venusian eggery and was chosen in tandem with Astronomy, Sacred Geometry (Astrology), and the myths of the copper lady-goddess we-the-people inadvertantly worship, the Statue of Liberty, aka Columba or Columbia.
It's much like when millions of people pay homage to the Olympic Games' "eternal flame" passing by - but it's Saturday night, and you don't want to get me started on that little illuminism.

Why, he simply filled his cabinet with spawn-of-robber-baron curios who bed down near their Wall Street troughs!
Exalted professors can rob you blind as well as street fighters like Bush, Cheney, and Rove can, y'know.
And as typed previously (ad nauseum for me, too) Jan 20, 2009's Inaugural in DC was but another 'peaceful' baton-passing of presidential imperatives which are agreed to beforehand by the prospective White House mouthpiece, aka presidential shill for the new world order.
No, it never leaves me:
The sense that America's natal degree of moneybags Jupiter (the archetypal professor, lawyer, banker, actor, and seeker) is @ '6 Cancer' from July 4, 1776 = "Gamebirds Feathering Their Nests"...not your threadbare nests, common worker pawn...their cushy nests.
Because they want more cushy. And they intend to get it, too.
Do you assume differently?
Well, now I know why President Obama didn't 'go to work on Wall Street after Harvard' as his fable touted loudly during the 2008 campaign...someone knew he'd be a contender for the Oval Office one day, and we-the-people had to believe that Senator Obama would be iikely to do something about greedily out-of-control, corrupt bankers.
Rock Me Gently
The 'Oval Office' borrows from ancient symbols of fertile Venusian eggery and was chosen in tandem with Astronomy, Sacred Geometry (Astrology), and the myths of the copper lady-goddess we-the-people inadvertantly worship, the Statue of Liberty, aka Columba or Columbia.
It's much like when millions of people pay homage to the Olympic Games' "eternal flame" passing by - but it's Saturday night, and you don't want to get me started on that little illuminism.

Most Americans in same boat floating on Jupiter/Neptune
"We may have all come on different ships, but we're in the same boat now."
Rev. Martin Luther King, Jr.
Yes, I put 'most' Americans in the post title due to the top one-percenters who were never in the boat in the first place; in fact, the power elite consider themselves above the common boat and floating on that yacht you spy in the distance...
Here's a previous post concerning April 4, 1968 and the assassination of Dr. King. If you click to enlarge the chart for that day on a Memphis balcony, you see rising the midpoint of Jupiter/Neptune, a pair whose Great Conjunctions have occurred all through 2009 (culminating in their third and last conjunction on December 21, conj US natal Moon, the people.)
This reluctant astrologer has scolded the pair's demonstrable speculation/inflationary money/grand schemes/instability/wastefulness vibes all year as our financial system and health care debate for reforms have ground on.
Yet in the assassination chart of Dr. King, is that all there is to Jupiter/Neptune who may also represent a spiritual (Neptune) teacher and preacher (Jupiter)?
Perhaps Jupiter/Neptune's connection to religious fervor and expansion of spirituality was a theme on the horizon as Dr. King's popularity and leadership were being felt by the masses (Neptune) toward expansion (Jupiter) of anti-Vietnam war protests joining with Civil Rights protests to more strongly make the people's voice heard in Washington where control of 'the helm' is so jealously guarded against the people's of-by-for myth, gossip that was started by the founding fathers.
Politicians wouldn't want our of-by-for functions taking over the ship's course for then their secret lack of power without us would be fully revealed.
In part, *Michael Munkasey gives the Jupiter/Neptune combo as 'visions of how to effect totally different directions to life, generosity with the attention disadvantaged people receive (city garbage workers - jc), and studies concerning drugs, alcohol, or rehabilitation. These motifs are also concerned with how dreams influence society.'
As you know, Dr. King had a dream.
And as you may know, several of the older families in the US - still in leadership positions - are known for making their fortunes through drug smuggling and
trafficking, also a major cash cow for the CIA. This includes the period of 'helming' under Reagan and Bush (though Reagan idolaters conveniently forget.)
Yes, someone at America's helm in 1968 felt threatened enough to take divisive and subversive actions which were publicly demonstrated in Memphis on yet another dark day in our nation...and it was mourning in America once again.

Mars~Saturn~Pluto, the shadowers + Copenhopin' opens
Ready for a 'Stability Police Force' in the United States?
Let's convert its heavy-handed ugliness to some appropriate astrological symbolisms: 'stability' = Saturn, 'police' = Mars, and 'force' = Pluto.
You don't want the energies those three planets represent to come knockin' on your door around midnight, now do you?
The pairings of Mars/Saturn, Mars/Pluto, and Saturn/Pluto all represent serious power issues and can bring hard circumstances. And yet their principles are necessary. It's certain people's motives of dominance and greed that we must be wary of.
Egoists!
So please read the article linked above, if only to be aware of possibilities.
Though shadows are falling yet a new day dawns...
Even if separately we're each a tiny pawn in a massive chess game....en masse we are more powerful than those who would control our lives and futures by imposing the dire Orwellian visions one of their grandpappies had late one night after consuming a heady carafe of brandy with a brace of cigars...but crimee! that was centuries ago. Egoists, I repeat.
Yes, the shadowers want a new 'Utopia' of suckiness, not progress. Backwardness. And naturally, we remember that no empire lasts forever. Meanwhile, speeding empiric falls and crumblings are some of the chaotic specialities of...the shadowers who lie in wait like wolves.
This Just In: the Copenhopin Summit that opened with fancy entertainments today has in its sunrise chart (Copenhagen, Denmark @ 8:31:35 am CET) a hook-up showing of the propaganda pair, Mercury and Pluto 2Cap19/2Cap35 in 1st house; Jupiter 21AQ52-Chiron 21:56 are snugged beside Neptune 23AQ59 in transiting 2nd house. Both the Jup/Nept cycle and 2nd house relate to money issues.
We may expect rhetoric issuing from the summit to be subtle and manipulative, and perhaps even enticing. An underlayer of cruelty may remain hidden a while longer.
Sunrise Dec 7, 2009 (Pearl Harbor Day, I know - the chart for the first bomb is well-studied next to the chart for the 1st plane hitting the WTC on 9/11/01, for both events took the US into 'justified' wars) has Sun/ASC 15Sag19 with Venus 6Sag47 oriental (planet that rises before the Sun, no matter how far apart they are in zodiacal degrees.)
Venus oriental = people who deal with valuable things; money issues; one's image upon the reflective 'screen' of the world's collective unconscious which may be substituted for one's true personality; masks, personae, veils, and subpersonalities abound in the environment...as they relate to the Climate Change Summit in Copenhagen Dec 7, 2009.
December 7, a date 'that will live in infamy' all right, but around here it lives as very possibly a false flag op perpetrated by Freemason FDR & pals in order to shove America into war (again.)
The DESC of the Copenhopin' Summit sunrise chart (15Gem19) has America's natal Mars/Uranus midpoint conjunct it = either great and speedy energy with a rebellious attitude, explosive actions, revolution, and/or accident potential.
And with Mars 18Leo36 (tr 8th h) triggering not only the Mother of All Eclipses degree of Nostradamus fame (August 11, 1999), but 18Leo+ is also the position of vengeful Venus on the morning of 9/11/01. Assure me that these planetary factoids aren't connected within a higher plan, if you can.
Now you figure it all out. My head hurts. I shall chillax with a charming Christmas Art w/ Music video from a very creative pair, Rob and Julia Howe!

Ds call Rs' bluff on joining Public Option - video
Sometimes Capitol Hill Theater can be tres amusing!
Since senators and representatives have been on the public dole with their Cadillac health care all along, the ploy on Thursday (Dec 3) by Senators Coburn and Vitter to further gum up passage of health reform makes a lot of sense: all senators and reps must enroll in the public option program, "no other possibilities, no other choices," said Vitter to The Hill.
But the Rs weren't attempting to make sense, they were proposing an amendment that they assumed the Ds would oppose thus making Dem efforts for a public option seem hypocritical. (Memo to GOP: precious few of you in Congress need help with hypocrisy - you're past and present masters.)
As Senator Coburn said about the Rs' tricky amendment, "It's called leadership. If it's good enough for everybody else, we ought to be leading by example."
Hurrah! Now that would be a novelty on Capitol Hill - leading, and by example, too! Next thing you know, Congress will be retrieving its oversight duties and stepping up to our constitutional plate.
One-upsmanship: by unanimous consent vote, Sherrod Brown (D-OH), Al FRanken (D-MN), and other Ds have been added as co-sponsors of the Republican amendment. Now what do you think are the chances for reform passage with the public option for government reps attached? Nil? Or none?
Hey, wait a minute. If this amendment stands as the bill is ultimately voted up or down, will it be merely one of the reasons that health insurance reform crashes altogether? Hope not. But I think my total lack of trust in my 'elected' officials' good faith on our behalf is showing. Again.

Text link to President Obama's war escalation speech of 12.1.09; US progr'd Pluto
Here is a link the President Obama's war escalation announcement of Dec 1, 2009 in West Point, NY which I attempted to translate from astrologese into English, if you're interested (horoscope chart included.)
In my real world I've had time this week to speak to friends and several people of my acquaintance and so far we all agree: sending 30,000 US soldiers (or however many it will really be) is a very bad, if not insane, idea which will ultimately do America more harm than good.
And promoting Bush's past justifications only makes Mr. Obama's culpability more obvious and saddening. Of course, BHO did sign on to carry water for the plutocratic oligarchy, didn't he?
Now as a daughter of the revolution myself, I shall type once again the Sabian Symbol of the difficult Solar Eclipse degree now affecting the world @ '30Cancer'...you may agree that it's quite apt; from *July 21/22, 2009's 11 South Series at a 29th 'crisis' degree (29Can27), and rounding up:
"A Daughter of the American Revolution" = INHERITANCE...
positive expression: an infectious pride in leadership through which a group is able to act as a unit;
negative/unconscious/shadow side: the ultimate betrayal of self hood by a false assumption of superiority.
Then there's the Illumination Point, the opposite degree, which fills out the picture and is the current degree of America's Secondary Progressed PLUTO in the year 2009:
'30Cap' = "A Secret Business Conference" = OPPORTUNITY...
pos: a gift for clever planning and successful administration in every area of life;
neg/unconscious/shadow side: rampant selfishness and rank exploitation of others.
Normally I don't like to interpret Sabian Symbols here in close relationship to the subject of my post since everyone should be free to associate the symbolic word pictures as they wish according to their own insights and opinions. But considering the seriousness of the president's actions as he jumps on the ruin-and-bankrupt-America-by-war bandwagon, I shall sassily do so now. You don't have to agree, I'm just telling you how the Solar Eclipse influence seems to me to be affecting us at this important juncture, this crossroads where we're taking, imo, the wrong turn.
The American people have inherited a tendency to 'solve' things by going to war once our emotions have been played upon for a 'cause.' This is a hold-over from revolutionary times. Our military forces have been ably organized and trained - anti-constitutional though they may be as a 'standing army' - and are the best in the world, of which we may be justly proud.
Yet arrogance has crept into our national psyche with our plutocratic leadership egging it on with ideas and dreams of 'Manifest Destiny' as if we have a right above all others to expand into the world - into the territories of others. You know the history of the US government vs Native Americans, so I don't have to mention its tragedies and sorrows.
Our first overseas invasion - of innocent HAWAII, for cryin' out loud - was inspired by Robber Barons' visions of sugary profits which I've written about previously; you may view the chart with details of the Jan 16, 1893 coup, if you wish. You'll see the Sun was conjunct US natal Pluto 27Cap33. Sun-to-Pluto is a transit of formidable aggression and strong will with power issues highlighted. Needless to say, Hawaii didn't stand a chance.
Besides that, 'assumptions of superiority' are against what America generally describes as its 'Christian' heritage, because all people are unique yet equal before God's Throne and we each have a true condition before God - not how we think of ourselves or what anyone else believes about us, but what He knows we are.
And His is the only opinion that matters in the end - not spins from dictators calling other dictators 'evil' or objectifying entire races of peoples in order to 'justify' taking their lands and resources, or otherwise oppressing them. (Dropping bombs upon them I would include in this category which, of course, brings in a little old Commandment against killing.)
And so Americans are induced to betray themselves by falsely assuming that the Universe allows us actions which are somehow above the rest of Earth's inhabitants as we do so...as if reaping what we sow - the law of karma - only applies to others, not to us.
Astrologically, America is said to be highly influenced by freedom-loving, chaos-bringing Uranus, discovered by William Herschel in 1781 - between the American and French Revolutions (both of which were started by Rothschildian machinations and other world domination types who use chaos situations they engineer as game changers when it suits their notions and NWO whims.)
'30 Cap':
Then we come to the Illumination Point conjunct US Sec PLUTO in Capricorn; Pluto, a signature on one level of the 'secret hand' that directed our nation's founding, and I believe, still directs in secret conferences with goals of their own which are against America-as-we-know-it's best interests. Thus, they high-handedly expand the Pentagon's war machine in spite of the majority's wishes.
These plutocrats are the ivory-towered power elite of the shadow government (Neptune/Saturn) who had to sign off on Barack Obama as president or he wouldn't be in the White House. He plays our 'propaganda-catapulter-in-chief' whose oration attempt on the evening of Dec 1, 2009 is considered by many to be unconvincing rhetoric. It was definitely not his most uplifting orating performance, but look at the sorry material he had to work with. And look how empty his assurance of when our troops would leave - made for the American public's benefit, as well as for others'.
So ramping up war in the Middle East to control the region's lucrative resources is an opportunity for Pentagon big dogs to justify their jobs, keep the US military industrial complex and private contractors in business, and follow the world domination script of the ruling plutocracy. And of course, other political concerns are at work as well.
But you know - it's primarily their selfishly crass and morbid 'exploitation of others' that grips my heart most sadly.

Winter Solstice 2009 - Washington, DC

Chart shown: Winter Solstice Dec 21, 2009 @ 12:46:35 pm est: Sun 00Cap00:00 in 9th house conjunct Pluto 2Cap56; Hour of Mercury 19Cap51 conj NN 21Cap11 in 10th house; ASC 16Ari39 with asteroid *Minerva rising 16:14; chart-ruler Mars 19Leo41 Rx in 5th house; Mars applies to semi-square (0A30) Saturn 4Lib11 in 6th house, and sesqui-square Pluto (1A45); Mc (The Goal) @ 9Cap13 with '10Cap' = "An Albatross Feeding from the Hand of a Sailor."
Or the hand of a US Marine. Note: this analysis of the Solstice chart is deeply involved with Afhanistan, so avoid reading, if you're looking for Sun celebrations.
Moon 27AQ05 in 11th house with Chiron 22AQ34-Neptune 24AQ18-Jupiter 24:22, so the Solstice occurs the same day as the 3rd and last Great Conj 2009 of Jupiter/Neptune, the speculator pair of grand schemers and bubble-inflators. Jupiter rules 9th and 12th houses, Neptune's Pisces is on 12th cusp of Self-Undoing, Karma, and Behind-the-Scenes Activities (including the political kind of secret deals and deceptions...rebellious Uranus 22Pis52 which may indicate, among other things, sudden and shocking - Uranus - hospital - 12th h - infections or epidemics - Pisces; plus, water disasters are possible.)
As you see, 2009's Winter Solstice occurs 10 minutes prior to America's Moon Return ('Sibly' Moon 27AQ10) which occurs in Washington DC @ 12:56:23 pm est. Moon or Lunar Returns give info on the daily tempo of life and describe changing circumstances; our responses to stimuli may also be gleaned from a Lunar Return chart, and this Moon Return is important as the last of 2009 and because it occurs the day of the Winter Solstice, a celestial event which relates to Global Events (Cardinal Cross: 00Cap/00Can; 00Ari/00Lib.)
Mundanely this close timing intimately relates the Solstice 2009 chart to the America people (Moon), and of course, Moon = home, security, and nurturing issues as well. President Obama's war escalation has been framed in similar fashion as Bush's - as integral to protecting the homeland and the American people. Personally I don't believe this for I think our boots on their holy sands rile up opponents as it kills civilians, so if Washington and its string-pullers wish to create more chaos and sustain perpetual war, they're on the right war path for that agenda.
Interestingly on that theme, warrior Mars @ '20Leo' has a Sabian Symbol of note: "American Indians Perform a Majestic Ritual to the Sun" with Sun 00Cap00 being the leader or leadership in a Mundane chart, and Mars representing the military and police forces.
Sun conj Pluto and vengeful Venus 24Sag56 in 9th house of Foreign Lands and Long-Distance Travel relates to large-scale war efforts; 8th cusp of Shared Resources, Debt, Transformations, and Death has 22Sco52 upon it so is ruled by Mars and co-ruled, if you will, by powerful saboteur, assassin, and wealthy god of the Underworld, Pluto.
You see marked a midpoint picture at Mc where it easily manifests since chart angles are areas of outward expression:
Sun/Mercury = Mc: successful communications; ego awareness help one's plans work and stand up to the test; communicating effectively and clearly to enhance world standing/public status; clarifying goals and the plans for their achievement; standing by one's convictions; businessmen; intellectual workers. (Tyl; Ebertin; Munkasey.)
As you see, I've also penned in asteroid Cupido (The Family; Corporatism) and Ceres 00Sag22 (security issues) in a Mundane chart) in 8th house, with Ceres @ '1Sag' = "A Grand Army of the Republic Campfire" - the degree of Venus during the president's escalation announcement at West Point the evening of Dec 1.
4th house, the Basis of the Matter, contains the July 21/22, 2009 Solar Eclipse of 'system failures; reforms and new methods needed' @ a critical 29th degree: 29Can27, ruled by the Moon...crises at home. Since the president's message on Dec 1, we've seen political hacks and shills making political hay of his decision with some Republicans supporting the idea of sending 30,000 US men and women abroad - which justifies their previous rush to war with Bush and Cheney leading the charge, as Rs hope.
The president called his war escalation a 'new approach' in his Dec 1 address...'new methods needed' so I again think of Karzai's corrupt government - but is his any more corrupt than ours?
Plus, Republicans and their enablers have to love it, one supposes, that more massive war expenses make changes at home on behalf of the American people quite impossible financially, and I'm not convinced that Health Insurance Reform won't collapse for lack of funding; operatives are working on assuring that debacle now. (Pres. Obama, like others before him, is following the lead of his neocon Zionist pals and has chosen endless war over the American people's dire needs at home - if you tire of reading me say that, you may imagine how tired I am of typing it because they're perpetrating it as I type.)
Another factor that relates to war escalation in the Winter Solstice 2009 chart is the Mercury/NN conj in 10th house. Mercury 19Cap51 is on the degree of the first Great Conj of Uranus/Neptune of Feb 2, 1993 which occurred two more times in **1993: Aug 20 and Oct 24.
The Oct 24, 1993 Uran/Nep conj is the one I use to time the more public ramping up of the New World Order agenda and its natal chart; Uran/Nep Oct 24 @ 18Cap33 with '18Cap' being the "The Union Jack Flies from a British Warship" degree which has the POLITICAL POWER flavor (Marc Edmund Jones) with its 'smug and strong-armed paternalism' which is precisely what America should stop arrogantly forcing upon the Middle East - irrespective of oil and gas supplies. (I recently wondered aloud if 'insurgents' in the region are actually fighting against the New World Order - the Great Satan they say America is - a remark for which I expected to receive critiques on this blog. I didn't, so perhaps no one noticed.)
Yet the symbol for Mars as noted above relates to Sun/will worship as practiced by NWO/imperialist types, imo. "What thou wilt" and all that marlarkey that supposedly puts certain people above the common laws of the masses and natural laws of the Universe - in their own minds, that is. It's having the political power to implement their madness that now bedevils the world, while the Eye of Horus atop the pyramid of power printed on US money tells a centuries-old tale of world domination visions and total surveillance which we know is being used to snoop upon us all.
So! The Mercury Rx Station on or about Dec 26 @ 21Cap45 will conj the 2009 Solstice NN indicating meetings, of course, but there's more according to Michael Munkasey's excellent book Midpoints: Unleashing the Power of the Planets; paraphrasing Mr. Munkasey...
Mercury/NN in politics and business: creating new corridors for transportation; enabling business to ship or transport merchandise; well-thought-out and coordinated joint efforts; using transportation facilities for smuggling or unlawful means; theft of material or information on transportation capabilities or policies; ineffective efforts to coordinate transportation options.
Mercury = young people, too, so I'm reading this as relating to shipping troops off to war, and to spies and theft of such info; smuggling may be somehow indicated as well so we may expect possible deceptions concerning troop-equipment-weapons numbers along with who-knows-what-else flowing through smuggling routes. And of course a Winter Solstice chart relates to many things on many levels simultaneously (besides war escalation) since Astrology always describes the multitude of complex layers of life on Earth.
My point is that in relation to Washington's war escalation, Mercury's Rx Station on or about Dec 26, its Direct Station @ 5Cap35 on or about Jan 15, 2010 (day of the next Solar Eclipse 12N @ 25Cap01, conj US Inaugural Midheavens - including Jan 20, 2009's - and a bunch of other powerful midpoints such as the imperialistic, plutocratic Pluto/Chiron 2009 - and conj the Mc of the 1973 natal chart of Aghanistan), plus, the day Mercury leaves its shadow period, on or about Feb 4/5, 2010 @ 21Cap45, will describe the stop-go process of troop transports to Afghanistan.
And perhaps it describes the stop-loss deployment of our overburdened, already-served-thanks soldiers who will be grossly and unfairly affected by Pres. Obama's dancing the war path dance which the Pentagon and other Jupiter/Neptune speculators love so well.
If you click to view the NWO chart above, look for the 22Sco+ degree of Mercury conj 8th cusp of the 2009 Winter Solstice chart shown above, and notice the degree of Saturn and 2nd cusp of Money and Values in 1993: conjunct Jup/Neptune's current 24AQ degree...here is the midpoint picture formed:
Jup/Nep = tr Saturn: possible self-delusion; pessimism; a breakdown of idealization; combining the real with the unreal in activities; feeling abandoned by one's luck; lack of self-confidence; experiencing the consequences issuing from false hopes; plans which come to nothing; disappointemnts; losses. (Tyl; Munkasey; Ebertin.)
This represents Jupiter-to-Saturn and Neptune-to-Saturn transits to the NWO natal chart, made stronger by the Jup/Nept conj:
Jup-to-Sat = getting rid of restrictions; burdens are partially eased; long-term efforts and hard work are rewarded; governement authorities find the status quo advantageous. (War!)
Nep-to-Sat: circumstances inspire new approaches to handling authority; traditions and structures previously adopted begin to disintegrate; ideals positively or negatively affect those in authority and government which impacts the lives of the masses.
'New approaches to handling authority' reminds me of Mr. Obama's taking his time, having ten meetings of his war council before announcing what must have been a foregone conclusion to enlarge the activities of the US war machine.
Synchronistically, the Oct 24, 1993 Uran/Nep conj (NWO natal chart) occurred near a US Moon Return, too - and under the harsh rays of a cruel Saturn-Pluto square as we now labor!
In summation: NWO plans require more war; America acts as the world's police force; President Obama follows the NWO script after deceitfully campaigning as a candidate intending US troop-withdrawal, not war escalation, as if he didn't know the score - and he wouldn't have been installed in the White House without the power elite's okay after making secret deals with the NWO devils of perpetual war and chaos.
The labels 'Democrat' or 'Republican' make no difference to the implementation of the NWO agenda except as a handy tool for keeping we-the-people divided and conquered. WE have the more potent power but rarely ever use it. We Must Unite!
Imo, the president put off announcing his war intentions as a political ploy in a transparent attempt at pacifying his pacifist supporters...Mr. Thoughtful.
So how are you liking the Obama presidency so far?

**A few issues from the year 1993 may return to the surface of 2009/2010 esp with Mercury Rx/Direct Stations affecting the Winter Solstice 2009 North Node and passing over the 1993 Great Conjunction of Uranus/Neptune, a pair that Munkasey gives as:
subversion using a new method of acquiring information; movements which diminish the authority of a nation's leadership or police force (US? Afghanistan?); changes in political and social structures due to new ideals and dreams of the future; groups which form to exploit oil or chmical resources.
Master astrologer Marjorie Orr mentions major events of 1993 (Saturn/Pluto square; Uran/Nep conj) in her book The Astrological History of the World:
EU's single market debuts and 7 months later the Exchange Rate Mechanism almost collapses; disputes in Bosnia-Herzogovina; Yeltsin suspends the Russian parliament and declares a state of emergency when 'rebels' take over the parliament building (rebels fighting against the NWO?); Fermat's Last Theorem is solved at last - quelle relief! he posed it under the 17th century Uranus/Neptune conj (and history cyclically repeats); the first photos of individual atoms are published; Pres. Clinton bombs Baghdad, and Janet Reno forcefully 'overdoes it' at the Siege of Waco, Texas.
Ms. Orr's interpretation of the Uranus/Neptune combo: 'inspired changes and disruptive chaos simultaneously.'
