Sen. Whitehouse and the Spanish Inquisition
In the news: Senator Sheldon Whitehouse's statement on Mukasey's nomination.
Read Whitehouse's official bio here.
Born Oct 20, 1955 into a diplomatic family in NYC, Junior Senator from Rhode Island, Sheldon Whitehouse (D) may have the perfect Washingtonian name...you can hear it, I know: President Whitehouse in the Whitehouse. Sounds fine to me!
Now Senator Whitehouse's natal Sun Libra/Moon Sagittarius blend has two Images for Integration:
"An educationalist creates a Palace of Discovery to feed and stimulate young minds...Bob Geldof spins Band Aid out of thin air to help famine-stricken Africa."
Obviously, he shares this Sun-Moon blend with Geldof and also with: historian Bruce Catton, Sean Lennon, Dory Previn, Betty Boothroyd, and Art Buchwald who said, "I explained to him that I had simple tastes and didn't want anything ostentatious, no matter what it cost me.""
This is an idealistic combo, generous, adventurous, witty, and enthusiastic with missionary zeal...there are persuasive powers with philosophical interests and a desire to help others. (Sun Sign, Moon Sign, Chasles and Suzi Harvey.)
A flair for public speaking is demonstrated as well as an ability to see the larger picture (Sag.) Negatively there can be a tendency to overstretch, over-estimate one's capacities, and/or to hide personal problems with workaholism (who doesn't?).
And yet a lack of introspection may cause blindness to one's true motives, an inability to "see" oneself realistically, and a certain detachment and aloofness may be noticed. Perhaps this results from hearing a celestial choir.
Yes, having a sensitive, receptive Sun-Neptune conjunction, it's not always easy to make one's mark although humanitarian work would be perfect for nebulous, idealistic Neptune's melding with one's essence and leadership qualities (Sun.) He seems to prefer working behind the scenes.
This creative combo usually results in a lack of confidence when expressing oneself, and there's a veiled outlook on life which may lead to disappointments and unpleasantness--plus, personal responsibilities may be difficult to manage. (Maturity can help mitigate such nebulous issues.)
Yet a career based on the public's benefit would be fine as long as a trusted advisor is around to help face the tougher issues, for realities can be abrasive to a Sun-Neptune individual.
Whitehouse's Pre-Natal Eclipse Series is problematic--the 11 South Series which last manifested July 11, 1991. This is the Series in which a few things have occurred through history such as:1. the murder of writer Danny Casolaro which took place the weekend of Aug 9/10, 1991 as he closed in on the PROMIS gang and its octopus tendencies;
2. the assassination of Marat (July 13, 1793);
3. George Washington takes command of the army (July 3, 1775);
4. PE of Enrico Fermi.
Brady's Predictive Astrology lists the themes of this Series as:
Old ideas or methods will suddenly fail and new systems are required to deal with events brought on by the Eclipse; there is a need for sudden reforms and new ways of handling issues; any blocks may be violently or tragically removed.
Well, Danny Casalaro, his investigation, and his in-progress book about 'The Octopus' certainly were removed.
The 11S Series next occurs: July 22, 2009 (29Can27--"30Cancer" = "A Daughter of the American Revolution" degree.)
Well, there's a small cameo of the Senator from Rhode Island who seems to have been inspired this week to speak up on America's behalf. I only wish more of the varmints of Washington DC would do it--and mean it.
NYSE plunge, Bernanke, and Eclipses
Saturn/Pluto = Mars: assault; ruthlessness; violence; fighting battles to keep things going; a gun with a cork in its barrel; enormous undercurrents of frustration. (midpoints: Tyl; Ebertin.)
Saturn/Pluto = Neptune: being doubted; not being seen for who one really is; unstable life situation because of the inexplicable, because of fear. (PROMIS software scares me, too.)
Another thing that's fearful is that our now-in-effect Solar Eclipse--the one on Sept 11, 2007--falls into Bernanke's Pre-Natal Eclipse Series, personalizing it for him within its 18.6 year cycle.
And of course having a natal Mars-Neptune conj indicates one who has conflicts between the impulse to act (Mars) and the willingness to accept responsibility for actions taken (Neptune's undermining effect.)
Yes, there's a lot of that going around Washington, isn't there? Bernanke can't clearly see the burden of guilt and there's a tendency to ignore reality! Bubbles everywhere. Except for one thing--'the elite' know full well what they're doing to America. Others don't always cooperate as they wish, but the rich have "options" the rest of us don't have, so to them it's all good.
Here are some previous Fed-Bernanke-NYSE posts:
Hylan, Bernanke, and the Fed in which US presidential candidates, cat's paws, and the octopus are well explained by a voice from the past.
NYSE's 2008 Eclipse
Bernanke's first Fed head shout-out
And be sure to visit, if you haven't, Patrick Wood's excellent The August Review where the good fight for America's sake is being fought.
With Bernanke's natal Sun/Jupiter ($) opposition, the Fed head is prone to taking risks and is afraid of competition--he tends to takes great chances when he should be more careful. There's self-deception with Sun oppo Jupiter and others sense it...
...not that the Bush administration couldn't use such a tool.
The undermining of America rolls along and the failure of the US dollar is part of the game, m'peops! "Performer of a mystery play" ("6AQ") is the US natal South Node--aka the 'Medina degree' (Neptune's position when Mohammed entered Medina--the beginning of Islam. Old connections came to call on 9/11/01.)
So read as much as you can about PROMIS software, backdoors, and the selling of the PROMIS software to bin Laden.
In fact, From the Wilderness is a good resource for that sort of info.
It isn't pretty (and connects the Bush-Clinton juggernaut as previously mentioned with the underworld, BCCI, the worldwide terroist network, etc) but we must face reality if any improvements are to be expected and if We-the-American-People have any hope of taking back our government from the radical fascists who now plague and control it.
Their dismantling of the Constitution was/is a must meant to neutralize the people's power--with terror-fighting the excuse, and fear as propaganda's ploy.
And please please forget the R vs D crap (pardon my French)--the divide-and-conquer ploy of selfish war-profiteers who have lied us into war once again and brought the world such misery and woe.
So--is PROMIS' ability to manipulate financial markets in play within today's volatility? How could it not be? I believe that the Y2K smokescreen was part of the game as well.
1999: ahhh, I remember it well:
You don't want an oilman in the White House, said I...but others had different ideas.

a balking Bush
Breaking News:
To Implement Policy, Bush to Turn to Administrative Orders 31 Oct 2007
The White House plans to try implementing as much new policy as it can by administrative order (dictatorship) while stepping up its confrontational rhetoric with Congress after concluding that President [sic] Bush cannot do much business with the Democratic leadership, administration officials said.
White House aides say the only way Bush seems to be able to influence (overturn) the process is by vetoing legislation or by issuing 'administrative orders,' as he has in recent weeks...They say they expect Bush to issue more of such orders in the next several months.#
As per his instructions.
He's famous for being "a uniter" y'know.
Laura Bush Nov 4, 1946

Laura Bush, in an attempt to defend her husband's SCHIP stance and his oily foreign policy says she's more involved in policy than previously known which is no comfort considering how things have gone since Bush coup'd the White House.
Since my move-along needs to get along, there's no time for much, but here's Mrs Bush's natal chart (rating: B) with its out-of-bounds and Rx Venus as chart-ruler. It's also a Venus Hour, with n Venus at the "Grand Army of the Republic campfire" degree. Guess she's serious about being involved--although she's been instructed to steer clear of such topics as Iraq and Iran.
Her Pre-Natal Eclipse Series (2 New North) is same as her husband's. If you're familiar with the Tarot, you'll know all about Number 16, The Tower, with its collapse of plans and lifestyles, and the rebuilding and reshaping that begins after the dust settles--with far-reaching effects.
Sounds exactly like 9/11 doesn't it? Yet the 2NN Series manifested July 31, 2000...3 days after the Jupiter (Rs) conjunction with Saturn (Ds) at "9Leo", conjunct the natal Mercuries of George Bush, Al Gonzales, and the Republican Party...and very near Bush's n ASC (7Leo07.)
So the attacks of 9/11 occurred after the next Solar Eclipse (2South), the PE Series of Woodrow Wilson and of Ronald Reagan.
Keywords: individual involvement with unusual groups and the belief that much will be gained from such involvement. (Brady's Predictive Astrology.)
And, of course, AFTER Bush was in office and needing a major boost to his nebulously-gained presidency. Neocons all agreed--America "needed a new Pearl Harbour" to take us to war...so we got one.
Back later to add some comments on the First Lady's chart...please pardon any typos, will clear them up asap!
pirates in the news
Now if the American people could retake Washington from the pirates infesting it, that'd be the much-touted rule of law demonstrated and the redressing of our grievances.

Exploding comet now larger than Jupiter
Last week, Comet 17P/Holmes shocked sky watchers around the world with a sudden million-fold increase in brightness. It literally exploded into view, rapidly becoming a naked eye "star" in the constellation Perseus. Since then the comet has expanded dramatically. It is now physically larger than the planet Jupiter and subtends an angle in the night sky similar to the Moon's Sea of Tranquility, the right eye of the "Man in the Moon."
Photographers, this amazing comet is an excellent target for off-the-shelf digital cameras and backyard telescopes. It grows visibly from night to night and no one knows how large it will become. Stay tuned to SpaceWeather.com for sky maps and the latest images.#

Archive to White House: fork 'em over
The CREW (Citizens for Responsibility and Ethics in Washington) organization has also been busy filing and seeking improperly deleted records from the EOP
(Executive Office of the President.) The article has links to the various filings and to the White House's objections. Good reading.
And perhaps you remember the keywords for the now-in-effect Solar Eclipse of Sept 11, 2007 which describes paperwork and communication responsibilities which "come home to roost"...seems the White House belfry is overflowing with secretive chickens roosting and laying eggs about now!
And you heard by now that Tom Tancredo will not be seeking re-election...doesn't that make a dozen or more Republicans bowing out (before the paddy wagons pull up to the door)?
One dozen or two--makes little difference around SO'W--Ds and Rs are playing the same games with us as if we-the-people will be the ones to decide who will continue manning the helm of this oil tanker that used to be America.
And I say that sadly and with a hearty Shout-Out to Michael Ruppert's From the Wilderness.
We could do worse than face the truth.
