Mercury-Pluto! NSA's YouTube video "Most Hated" of 2013

The US government often uses the lame excuse of "unintended consequences" for its actions but it turns out that the phenomenon can work against them, too. The following interview, uploaded months ago in an ill-fated attempt by the NSA to 'clear its reputation', has backfired on the nosy agency and garnered it a Most Hated Video of 2013 label. Watch or re-watch it in all its shabby lameness if you can:

Yes, we see on display with the NSA that old Mercury-Pluto opposition in America's natal horoscope as it creeps and peeps about. Mercury = sight and communications; Pluto = the master spy with the Invisible Cloak. Plus, Dane Rudhyar gives the Sabian Symbol for US natal Mercury @25Cancer as, "A Will-Full Man Is Overshadowed By a Descent of Superior Power"; Keynote: The response of spiritual forces to the integration of personality through positive will-full endeavors."

This symbol mentions a man who uses "positive imagination to face life's problems" and "to him comes a pentecostal descent of power. He receives the 'mantle of power', the grace (baraka in Sufi philosophy) or the Providential assistance which can make him a true leader in his culture." The symbol speaks of "inner strength and uncommon ENDOWMENT." (An Astrological Mandala, Dane Rudhyar.)

And, no kidding--the text actually says, baraka. The 'Obama' we can supply for ourselves and the 'mantle of power' comes with the territory.

Jan 6, 2014 Congress returns w Sun Cap-Moon Pisces

With Congress returning to Capitol Hill on Monday January 6, 2014 and having important business to conduct (exs: Janet Yellen as Fedhead, extension of unemployment benefits if senior House Republicans agree), we may expect compassion for the plights of unemployed citizens to be expressed by some members, if not shown by others.

January 6, 2014: Sun (leadership) in governmental, business-oriented, law abiding (?) Capricorn, ruled by austere Saturn, and the Moon (the public; we the people) in muddled Pisces, ruled by happy Jupiter and dreamy Neptune, and forming no major aspect to other planets (actors) in the noon chart. There is, however, a quindecile (165 degrees) between the Moon and Mars (@14Lib06 in 6th house of Work, Service, Military, Police, Health, and Daily Rounds) which gives a frustrated, angry, aggressive, even abusive tone to the day with strong emotional convictions resulting in positive actions if the energy is well-directed (Reeves.)

Meanwhile, Mars (as chart-ruler--ASC 23Ari18) applies only once in Ptolemaic aspect--a square to Jupiter (1A13) giving the day a carelessness and a need to consolidate resources and direct them toward main priorities; Mars SQ Jupiter likes a challenge and, as we know, Congress and the nation have plenty of them to choose from and work on if someone can get the anti-government types to comply (and behave as if they care about the American people they supposedly serve--of course, the same could be said for enabling Democrats).

Also, Mars conjoins US natal Saturn (14Lib46; lawmakers) indicating that self-created obstacles are problematic to getting things done--careful planning is a must, wisdom of the more experienced members may be followed (to avoid running afoul of them), and a focus on structure and organization allows eventual success.

As we've discussed recently, Jupiter @15Can20 Rx is the 'handle' of a Bucket pattern that 'carries' the planets in opposition: Pluto @11Cap27, Sun @16Cap17--Mercury @21Cap23 and Venus @24Cap04 Rx have moved out of the opposition's orb for now though Venus will return to Jupiter's sway. The Capricorn stellium of planets is at Midheaven and thus are what the public will 'see' during this congressional session though Jupiter Rx at IC (The Drain; the HOW? Point) has much to say about what the Cap planets are doing.

US natal Sun (the president) @13Cap19 conjoins the noon IC along with transiting Jupiter Rx so obviously President Obama is part of the 'handle' and is opposed by powerful Pluto, the head of international banking houses which include the Vatican Bank.

Sun Capricorn-Moon Pisces is an Earth-Water blend is practical, nourishing, and supportive and can do what needs to be done. Humanitarianism is a trait of this combination of energies along with a tendency toward mysticism mixed with practicality. This tender/tough blend is self-motivated, has a professional air, and is diligent in work. Let us hope that 2014 gets off to a rousing start with a Congress that acts according to the needs of the people!

Four famous folk born with Sun Cap-Moon Pisces are J. R. R. Tolkien, Paul Cezanne, Elvis Presley, and Benjamin Franklin. Here are quotes from three of them as given by the Harveys in their book, Sun Sign-Moon Sign:

"Dost thou love life? Then do not squander time, for that's the stuff life is made of." - Benjamin Franklin (Ben and I are looking at You, Congress--this is my natal Sun-Moon blend! Congress has perpetrated plenty of time and money squandering already--jc)

"I want to go beyond impressionism and make it something solid and enduring, like the art of museums..." - Paul Cezanne

It's very hard to live up to an image." - Elvis Presley

Yes, it is very hard to live up to an image and through the centuries the US government has certainly given the American people an exalted image of Congress, among other things. Now let's see a genuine attempt in 2014 by the US Congress to live up to its better nature, not down.

2014 a year of Financial Trio Jupiter, Pluto, and Venus

2014 Financial Planets Venus, Jupiter, and Pluto: Tango or Tangle?

by Jude Cowell

With Year 2014 about to begin with a New Moon @11Cap57 conjunct Pluto, the position of banker-guru-general Jupiter is mightily important because, for one thing, the Jolly One and the Stealthy One (Pluto) lock horns in their annual opposition which perfects on January 31, 2014 @12:17 Cancer/Capricorn. Plus, Jupiter rules America's natal horoscope as well if one uses the July 4, 1776 5:10 pm LMT chart.

Obviously, we may expect that America's ongoing stalemate between investment wealth vs hidden wealth, along with debt ceiling fusses and called-for spending offsets, will continue as the international banking syndicate jerks around the 99% of us who don't appear to have their allegedly exalted blood(lines) in our veins or DNA.

And speaking of veins, evaluating Venus plays into the financial picture as well and makes a Direct Station on January 31, 2014 @13Cap33:23, the day of the second New Moon in January 2014. A second New Moon within a month is often called a 'Black Moon' since the New Moon phase shines no light until Sun and Moon begin to separate, and we have the first New Moon on New Year's Day 2014, as noted above.

Making these cosmic events specific to our nation and to our commander-in-chief is the fact that Jupiter in Cancer conjoins US natal Sun (the president) while Pluto opposes US natal Sun. And the transiting Saturn-Neptune midpoint, a planetary pair of collective social systems such as socialism, communism, and capitalism (along with suffering, asceticism, loss--and invisible government), conjoins the trio of Jupiter-Pluto-Venus within the Cancer-Capricorn axis of Security, Business, Career, and Domestic Concerns.

And of course, the 2014 Jupiter-Pluto opposition is the culmination stage (a 'full moon' of sorts) of their Great Conjunction of December 11, 2007 @28Sag23 during the Bush administration. The Jupiter-Pluto duo has 'concealment of wealth' and 'large-scale projects' vibes, as you know. Well, I guess that beggaring the entire world population via austerity measures and using the US military as part of a global police force may easily be described as 'large-scale projects', yes? And so can collapsing the US government in preparation for total control by global government, more's the pity, though we can refuse to allow it by community actions.

Although 2014 may not entirely be a year of 'smooth sailing' for the American people (or for President Obama with powerful, secretive Pluto opposing him), perhaps politicians will finally sort through ~our~ issues enough to keep America afloat into 2015--but that's not even mentioning Elections 2014, a whole other ballgame that we have to 'look forward' to. No, not much gets done in an election year, yet perhaps that also includes the harm that Congress can do. At least, many economists are not prognosticating 2014 to be a year of financial collapse and, if they're correct, that's something that even evaluating Venus may find worthy of appreciation.

Highly recommended for further reading is an excellent article concerning the cosmic events of January 2014 at Auntie Moon's Blog and joyously, it's a post free of Politics!

And in case you missed them, here's a handy list of 2014's Direct and Rx Planetary Stations in order of occurrence, plus, a list of the Solar and Lunar Eclipses of 2014 which will be discussed here in full as the days go by.

So if I don't 'see' you again, dear reader, here or there before January 1st, I want to wish a Very Happy New Year to Everyone! Jude

A Message from My Friend Barack

When Plutocrats Are in Need

by Jude Cowell

A rather astonishing email has arrived from a special Friend asking me to provide $3 for work that Washington Democrats should already be doing. For they do draw quite generous salaries from public coffers after all.

Yet admittedly I do prefer Democrats to control the House especially considering how cravenly Republicans have mooned the American people since 2009 and even now, as of December 28th, they withhold benefits for the unemployed while they themselves enjoy another undeserved holiday break.

We don't even know if Republicans will cooperate well enough to extend unemployment benefits after Congress returns to Capitol Hill on January 6, 2014 but I hope on the way to casting a vote they don't trip over their selfish, austere ideology which has proven many times to be excessively generous toward the wealthy elite who are in need of nothing yet they can't muster a dime for those who actually are in need--and who would bolster the US economy by spending it pronto. Why, monarchic Republicans and their enabling Democrats act as if tax monies are only theirs to spend and funnel however and wherever they wish, and that We the People should butt out of such lofty elitist decisions.

Puh!

Well, this dissenting American asserts once again that the majority of our politicians and other public officials are in breach of the public trust and, of course, have been for many decades. Many of them no longer pretend to do the tasks for which they were elected, it's just that after several years of Corporate Governance, embezzlement, theft, and fraud become much more difficult to hide successfully from the prying eyes of the fleeced. However, upping the level of outright brazenness helps their anti-American cause progress and that they've certainly been accomplishing while continuing to scam voters with glowing campaign promises and with political slogans that, as it turns out, have no merit in them for those who wish to retain a sovereign America.

And yet, no matter how outrageous Washington's sorry behavior becomes (and it will), we must not give them the fight they really want--millions of Americans in the streets with symbolic 'pitchforks' for government forces are surely amply armed and ready for us with tanks, drones, and otherwise. Besides, violence is never the answer to any problem and its use on our parts would shove us down to their reptilian-brained level where oppressive Pluto-Chiron's plutocrats and oligarchs dwell in the squalor of bad intentions.

Anyway, I hope my special Friend doesn't mind that I'm hereby publishing his email to little ole' me for it's certain that many of you received the same or a similar missive recently. Perhaps only the amount requested is different, but the cheekiness remains the same...

Friends --

They said it couldn't be done.

When our first Presidential campaign began, the naysayers dismissed the chances of a grassroots campaign powered by everyday folks organizing in their communities. Together, we proved them wrong.

Now those same critics claim we will fall short of regaining a Democratic House for the final two years of my term. But once again, you're building something truly incredible.

Friends -- Our campaign to defeat the Republican House and take back the majority is within range of a mark never before seen in Congressional campaigns -- one million online donations from grassroots supporters like you.

I'd like nothing more than to see us pull off this feat before this week's year-end fundraising deadline.

Can you chip in $3 or more today? Your donation could be the one that puts us over the top.

Let's get to work.

Barack

So. Are you persuaded?

Is the Bill of Rights dissolving before our very eyes?

Well, dear reader, perhaps you received a coffee or tea mug as a gift this week but if so, did it look anything like these?

~:~

The US Bill of Rights was introduced as legislative articles to the First US Congress by author James Madison (March 5, 1751 11:59 pm LMT Port Conway, VA; Sun 26Pis16, Moon 23Sco09, ASC 7Sag46 with Pluto rising @6Sag43 Rx--check out his chart/details here).

They were adopted by the House of Representatives on August 21, 1789, formally proposed by a joint resolution of Congress on September 25, 1789, and ratified by 3/4 of the states on December 15, 1791, as detailed here.

Their purpose? To assure certain "...personal freedoms, limit the government's power in judicial and other proceedings, and reserve some powers to the states and to the public." As you can see, the Bill of Rights, the first 10 Amendments to the US Constitution, turned 222 years old on December 15, 2013, just passed.

So if you watch the brief video embedded above, you'll be watching a physical representation of their purpose dissolving before your very eyes.

Welcome to 2014, America. Are you certain you want to keep quiet while this travesty against the Bill of Rights continues to happen?

Dec 28, 2013: Astrology of Unemployment Benefits Cut Off

Our Derelict Congress and the GOP's 'Hurting Obama' Game

by Jude Cowell

Since unemployment benefits are set to expire on December 28, 2013 for 1.3 million Americans, it's only natural for astrologers to take a look at that date and the condition of its two money planets, Venus and Jupiter, both of which are retrograde. The condition of the astrological Moon as We the People is an important chart factor to consider as well.

Yesterday a list of planetary changes of direction were posted to this blog where we see that Jupiter is Rx until March 6, 2014, and Venus turns Rx on December 21st (this Saturday) while conjoining US natal Pluto in late Capricorn. The Venus-Pluto contact makes for a good time in the US to plan and determine strategy though as a planetary pair, Venus-Pluto can signify bankruptcy, a real hazard for those whose unemployment benefits suddenly are withheld for an extended period of time.

These folks' Christmas shopping will tend to be suppressed with December 28th looming, so retail sales are sure to be lost, thanks to a derelict Congress.

However, Congress will take up the extension of benefits when they return to Capitol Hill in early January (if we can believe them), though even only a week or two without unemployment checks will not only put some families at risk of homelessness and/or food insecurity, but the lack will interfere with filling up car gas tanks for even the most basic errands--plus, it will take the money they would be spending out of the economy--thus hurting the America people along with hurting President Obama's favorability rating.

As for the Moon, Luna conjoins depressive, austere Saturn at 7:58 pm est on the evening of December 28, 2013 @20Sco05..'21Sco' = "A Soldier Derelict in His Duty", a Sabian Symbol which may easily refer to our veterans but makes me think first of our derelict Congress especially since Scorpio is the sign of betrayal (of the public trust and of their oaths of office--governing by not governing doesn't count around here.) This conjunction echos the recent (Nov 28th) conjoining of America's Secondary Progressed Moon and Saturn @ '3Sco' ("A House-Raising"!)

Yet Christmas is an optimistic season, and my Jupiterian hope is that Congress will act to extend unemployment benefits well before the Direct Station of Venus on January 31, 2014 @13Cap34 (opposite US natal Sun, a time when leaders are openly opposed and there may be ostentatious displays of luxury!) so if you are reading this blog (as you seem to be), I suspect that this is your hope, too.

Direct and Rx Planetary Stations: late 2013 into 2014

Changes of Direction: December 2013 to July 2014

by Jude Cowell

Now that Uranus in Aries turned Direct yesterday, up next in the line-up of planetary stations is Venus, a money planet, which from Earth's vantage point occurs near enough to Christmas Day to affect shoppers' urges to buy gifts or to return them before or after the holidays. Plus, thanks to Venus' Rx status, there may be a more than the usual amount of re-gifting practiced this year!

Here is a list of Direct and Retrograde Planetary Stations beginning with Venus in Capricorn and ending with Uranus in Aries in 2014, in order of occurrence; times listed are ET; you'll note the closeness of the Mars and Saturn shifts with Jupiter's station four days later:

1. Venus Rx Station: December 21, 2013 @28Cap58 at 4:53 pm (Direct since June 27, 2013 @7Gem29);

2. Mercury Rx Station: February 6, 2014 @3Pis20 at 4:43 pm (Direct since November 10, 2013 @2Sco29);

3. Mars Rx Station: March 1, 2014 @27Lib31 (Direct since April 13, 2012 @3Vir40);

4. Saturn Rx Station: March 2, 2014 @23Sco19 at 11:18 am (Direct since July 8, 2013 @4Sco49);

5. Jupiter Direct Station: March 6, 2014 @10Can26 at 5:41 am (Rx since November 7, 2013 @20Can30, a critical degree--Jupiter will finally move forward and conjoin US natal Mercury in Cancer, then oppose US natal Pluto in late Capricorn);

6. Pluto Rx Station: April 14, 2014 @13Cap34 (opposite US natal Sun) at 7:47 pm (Direct since September 20, 2013 @8Cap59):

7. Neptune Rx Station: June 9, 2014 @7Pis35 at 3:49 pm (Direct since November 13, 2013 @2Pis34):

8. Uranus Rx Station: July 21, 2014 @16Ari30 at 10:53 pm (Direct since December 17, 2013 @8Ari35, the day of the Full Moon @25Gem36).

If this list is at all helpful to you then I'll be very pleased!

A New Order: Woodrow Wilson Inauguration March 4, 1913

On March 4, 1913, Democrat and former New Jersey governor Woodrow Wilson was sworn in as our 28th President from the East Portico of the Capitol Building wearing a frock coat, a rose-colored tie (the rose, flower of Venus), and a silk top hat, and the same Bible that he used in NJ was opened once again to *Psalms 119:43-46.

Woodrow Wilson begins his Inaugural Address declaratively:

"There has been a change of government. It began two years ago when the House of Representatives became Democratic by a decisive majority. It has now been completed. The Senate about to assemble will also be Democratic. The offices of President and Vice President have been put in the hands of Democrats. What does the change mean? That is the question I am going to try to answer, in order, if I may, to interpret the occasion."

He goes on with references to "old things" that "have dropped their disguises and shown themselves alien and sinister" which continues to apply to America's political actors, many of whom now wear hats of both parties but especially those who don't believe in government. Notably in Wilson's natal horoscope his very close Venus-Mars conjunction degree of '18AQ' has "A Man Unmasked" as its Sabian Symbol.

Read the full text of Wilson's Inaugural Address of 1913, if you please.

Note: the elections of 1918 shifted the balance to the Republicans in Congress so as usual, all are complicit in getting us into WWI which was touted by Wilson to spread "democracy.")

Woodrow Wilson born December 29, 1856 12:45 am LMT Staunton, VA Rodden Rating: B, from bio/autobiography; see his horoscope and details here--Sun 7Cap47, Moon 00AQ45, ASC 15Lib31 conjunct his Pre-Natal Eclipse @16Lib52.

And here is the Inauguration 1913 horoscope with my scribbled notes thereupon; please click to enlarge:

Hour of Saturn (in 12th house of Politics, Secret Deals, and Karma); ASC 00Can17, a World Point and our US Inaugural ASC until the change to January 20th under FDR in 1937; '1Can' = "A Sailor Ready to Hoist a New Flag to Replace an Old One" which is appropriate for his Inaugural Address and for America's traditional 'transfer of power'; chart-ruler Moon makes only one applying major aspect, a conjunction with excitable Mars in 8th house...war on the way.

Plus, the trio forms a midpoint picture: Mars-Uranus (war; explosions; protests) = Moon (the public; women--there was a Women's Suffragette Parade down Pennsylvania Avenue the day before the 1913 Inauguration) and this gives the day an ambitious quality along with a desire for big achievements and 'special efforts expended by women' (Suffragette Parade for The Vote).

Even the WhiteHouse.gov site credits Mr. Wilson who, "-asserted international leadership in building a new world order", and though his League of Nations failed, the world is now saddled in its stead with the United Nations which issued from the bowels of the Franklin Roosevelt administration.

Wilson's first natal planet to rise in the 1913 Inauguration chart is his Saturn Rx (authority, soberness, etc) @11Can00 which probably influenced him in deciding to cancel his own Inaugural Ball in 1913 as being "inappropriate for the occasion". Plus, Saturn brings change, too, which is reflected in his Address, as noted above.

'Twas a mystical time in America when Woodrow Wilson took up his Oval Office role as transit Neptune conjoined US natal Mercury in Cancer (see Neptune conjunct 2nd cusp, the house of our National Treasury: financial deception) and supplied misunderstandings, deception, inaccurate record-keeping, errors, and loss. Neptune also went on to oppose US natal Pluto Rx in late Capricorn and eroded power in ways too numerous to mention in this post.

Another chart factor of background influence is Inauguration 1913's Pre-Natal Solar Eclipse Series, the 4 South (in 5th h @16Lib52 conjunct Wilson's natal Ascendant) with its themes of strong emotions over relationships and/or finances, frustration, and with a sense of fatedness attached; take no rash action (Brady.) 4S last manifested in 2002 and you know how Bush-Cheney handled this impulsive yet frustrating energy--by invading Iraq. Like Wilson who ran on 'peace' and 'making the world safe for democracy' and who secretly pledged the US into WWI at the behest of international bankers, they falsely used the "democracy" ruse, too.

And it seems to me that all Americans should be more than fed up with such deceptive propaganda by now.

*Psalms 119:43--46 KJV: And take not the word of truth utterly out of my mouth; for I have hoped in Thy judgments. So shall I keep Thy law continually for ever and ever. And I will walk at liberty; for I seek Thy precepts. And I will speak of Thy testimonies also before kings, and will not be ashamed.

How one Ayn-Rand-worshipping CEO ruined Sears

In recent years I have fewer reasons to frequent malls and stores such as Sears as often as when my kids were tiny tykes so this tale of how the CEO of Sears crashed the retail giant is news to me. And it took a devoted follower of Ayn Rand only a brief time to do it, in part by pitting his managers against one another!

Here's a previous SO'W post concerning Ayn Rand which contains a video of her laborious-to-watch film The Fountainhead (if you can watch the whole thing you deserve an award! even the novel is better), as well as a link to Rand's natal chart with biographical details.

Boston Tea Party Dec 17, 1773: Sun Sag-Moon AQ

With all the to-do this week over the apparent split between establishment Republicans and the party's congressional Tea Party members, I became curious to reconsider the horoscope of the original Boston Tea Party which occurred on December 17, 1773 in Boston Harbor in protest against taxes.

As you see from the date, the Boston Tea Party (BTP) has its 240th birthday coming up on Tuesday, December 17, 2013, the date of a Full Moon @25Gem26, a fulfillment or culmination indicator. This Full Moon degree conjoins the 5:45 pm LMT chart's Midheaven if we base the BTP's natal horoscope on the historical hour of 5:45 pm LMT which some sources cite for the sassy event which gives a Solar Return 2013 horoscope (SR) for 11:38:29 pm EST on Dec 17th. The tea-dumping by Freemasons dressed as 'Indians' is reported to have taken place between approximately 6 pm and 7 pm. A 7:00 pm LMT chart shows '30 Cancer' rising, the Daughters of the American Revolution Sabian Symbol. Appropriate, don't you think?

In the SR 2013 chart, Sun @26Sag24 conjoins the IC (The Drain; Endings; Separations; Domestic Scene) and the SR Moon is @5Can09 in Return 10th house conjoining US natal Jupiter (5Can56--'6Can' = "Game Birds Feathering Their Nests.") Rising is 26Vir30 and contentious Mars @5Lib11, plus, this SR Ascendant also brings up the BTP's Pre-Natal Eclipse degree of 24Vir00 in the 10 North Saros Series. 10N originally manifested on April 25, 944 (OS) with Sun-Moon @9Tau53; karmic Saturn (loss, delay; restriction; regulations and laws) @00Can53, a karmic World Point of Manifestation and Prominence.

Of note may be other events and personages for which 10N is the Pre-Natal Eclipse (PE); they include: Aaron Burr (Feb 6, 1756), the 4th Amendment (Dec 15, 1791), the KKK's Albert Pike, Confederate War General and grand poo-bah of the Freemasons (b. Dec 29, 1809 and a major proponent of the Great Plan which we now see taking shape so definitely as to be undeniable, police state and all--see video below), Meriwether Lewis' alleged suicide (Oct 11, 1809 Nashville TN), Lincoln's Gettysburg Address (Nov 19, 1863), and the bossy Bilderberg Group (May 29--31, 1954.)

10N themes include a strong emphasis on communications; frustrating or inhibiting events occur via news, paperwork, or a young person; tiredness and a drained feeling are attached (paraphrasing Brady's Predictive Astrology.)

A 10N Solar Eclipse last manifested on February 7, 2008 @17AQ45, what I have called the 'Unmasking Eclipse' since '18AQ' is the "A Man Unmasked" degree. And the eclipse occurred in the middle of the Bush-Cheney Great Heist of America's National Treasury which brought about the collapse of our economy, a near-global crash, and the theft of millions of Americans' financial lives and employment prospects.

The BTP's natal Moon (the people) on Dec 17, 1773 was @21AQ21 near what turned out to be our nation's natal Moon position and this gives the BTP a Fire-Air Sun-Moon 'live wire' blend full of ideas, bluster, and possibly eloquence. It's the combo of the visionary Utopian idealist (see Albert Pike) and it imprints the original Boston Tea Party with a word picture or "Image for Integration":

"On a tour of primitive lands, a university professor goes through a tribal initiation and becomes a blood brother of the chief." (Sun Sign-Moon Sign, Charles & Suzi Harvey.)

Hmmm...reminds me of fake Indians tossing Britain's tea into Boston Harbor and of the initiation rites of Freemasonry and other secret societies but I shall leave it to you, dear reader, to make other historical and modern-day connective links!

For further reading see Albert Pike Letter to Mazzini or watch a brief video presentation on Pike whose statue still stands on Capitol Hill:

FYI: there are religious references about the End Days and a Third World War between Christians and Muslims at the end of this video presentation.
