Astrologer Julie Demboski has written her March 2009 Forecast which covers Venus retrograde in Aries, the Jupiter (expansion) inconjunct (150 degr = adjustment) Saturn (restriction) which perfects Mar 21-25, plus, the Full Moon 20Vir40 of March 10, March 26's New Moon 6Ari08, and the Sun-Mercury Superior Conjunction at the end of the month, March 30.
Sounds like a bunch of stuff, doesn't it?
But never fret - with Julie's clear writing style, you'll be up to snuff and primed for the Mystic Rectangle pattern ('practical mysticism') of planetary energies that are involved with the March 26 New Moon. Let Julie fill you in as Spring Equinox 2009 sashays closer by the minute.
The Sun-Mercury Superior Conj will be highlighting issues that originated during the recent Mercury Rx period which included Inauguration 2009 when Mercury 00AQ41 was conjunct Pres. Obama's natal Jupiter as well as the Inaugural Sun of Jan 20.
So because I've been 'under the weather' for several days and not publishing as much as usual, I scouted out for you this excellent analysis for the month of March 2009, authored by Julie Demboski...because March waits for no blogger!

US financial system was built to fail
Now why would Richard C. Cook say that the US financial system was built to fail ever since the US government gave over its currency creating rights to the Federal Reserve in 1913?
Hmmm...around here we'd call that a long-range plan for world restructuring and domination.
And remember the seemingly better old days of March 24, 2008 when the Fed had a Moon Return and the Solar Eclipse from the NYSE's Pre-natal Eclipse Series had yet to occur on August 1, 2008?

Ron Paul's economic remarks 2.23.09 video
Raw Story has it and if you missed it, you may wish to view the video of Rep.Ron Paul's statement prior to Ben Bernanke's panacea of Wednesday, Feb 25.
Rep. Paul once again reveals the naked truth about the US financial system as he hit the high notes with such Greatest Hits as: 'You Can't Re-Inflate the Bubble' and 'Credit Ain't Capital, Baby' plus, other hummable tunes.
But one of my favorite parts of this brief video comes at its end - the visible discomfiture of CNBC's chair-warmers wiggling and squirming in their seats as they realize that too-clear truth had (inadvertently) been told - and they had broadcasted it on air.
Excessive (Jupiter) liquidity (Neptune) reigns as Jupiter and Neptune, the speculator-wastrel pair of planets when working together on financial projects, meet up three times in 2009 with their first conjunction occurring on May 27.
All their meet-ups conjunct US natal Moon in Aquarius, so once again I repeat myself ad nauseum with the midpoint picture that is formed throughout the year:
Jupiter-Neptune = Moon: little sense of reality; the tendency to lose oneself in plans; becoming involved in speculation, instability, and wastefulness.
Though I sincerely hope that monitoring where the money goes by way of Recovery.gov will actually prevent waste and fraud, still I am compelled to report to you the Astrology of the matter.

Save Money: make Peace not War
If Pres. Obama's pledge to include war costs within the annual budget is kept, won't it become even more obvious that it's Bush-Cheney-Rumsfeld's wars that have skewed our nation's fiscal position?
In 2008, when Bush, Bernanke, and Paulson began the econo-crisis drumbeat, I wondered if an imminent financial collapse was primarily about the US' Iraq, Afghanistan, and Pakistan expenses taken on since the coup of the Bush-Cheney regime - war by fiscal slight of hand.
And that perhaps 2008's dramas of secret meetings and rushing back to Washington to inject trillions into the system were, to them, a necessary attempt at hiding this fact, plus, hiding how they had cleared out US coffers while they had the chance and no one could stop them. Kind of like setting the barn afire after you've stolen the thoroughbreds.
Now Rep. Barney Frank has written a few words which may be of interest to everyone, especially those who said pre-March 2003: America can't afford years and years of war, you obscene profiteers, you.
And the reply I always got was: America is too rich to fail: Turns out...not so much:
Cut the Military Budget
By Barney Frank
Those organizations, editorial boards and individuals who talk about the need for fiscal responsibility should be challenged to begin with the area where our spending has been the most irresponsible and has produced the least good for the dollars expended--our military. #
But do spend more to better care for the medical and re-employment needs of the men and women whose lives have been forever changed by George Bush's illegal, ill-fated, lie-based, and oil-grabbing wars.

Pres Obama speaks 2.24.09, US Saturn rising
Zounds! Information Clearing House has done it again - come up with some apt quotes for today's crap that governments of the world are hawking to its subjects:
"Every single empire in its official discourse has said that it is not like all the others, that its circumstances are special, that it has a mission to enlighten, civilize, bring order and democracy, and that it uses force only as a last resort. And,sadder still, there always is a chorus of willing intellectuals to say calming words about benign or altruistic empires."
Edward W. Said, author of "Orientalism 25 Years Later," CounterPunch.org, 4 August 2003.
(That's because the world domination agenda has infected academia as well as media, banking, business, religion, and politics. They're 'willing' all right.)
"If the citizens neglect their Duty and place unprincipled men in office, the government will soon be corrupted; laws will be made, not for the public good so much as for selfish or local purposes; corrupt or incompetent men will be appointed to execute the Laws; the public revenues will be squandered on unworthy men; and the rights of the citizen will be violated or disregarded."
Noah Webster - (1758-1843) American patriot and scholar, author of the 1806 edition of the dictionary that bears his name, the first dictionary of American English usage.
(And prophet, imho. He expressed himself perfectly here, agreed?)

Yes, I have studied this evening's chart for Pres. Obama's address to a joint session of Congress, his first, where he is to "lay out his comprehensive approach to confronting our economic and fiscal crises," says the White House website.
Scheduled for 9:00 pm est, Capitol Building, Mars Hour, we find 14Lib34, the natal position of Saturn in America's chart (Sibly; July 4, 1776, 5:10 pm LMT; Philadelphia, PA) so our Saturn (responsibility; work; restriction; accountability; managers; authority) is about to be discussed.
Hopefully, the fact that Saturn is Exalted in Libra, an Air or mental sign, may help us figure this mess out. But the clock is ticking, with Saturn the ruler of Time.
Actually, this brings up America's natal Sun-Saturn square which shows our nation's early inferiority complex. But after enough experience, this square can become a very useful aspect even though success may not come easily - hard work and concentration are required.
In fact, this is a 'one step' or 'one day at a time' aspect, so I'll be listening tonight for words along those lines; or 'don't under-estimate America's potential," or perhaps something about "starting at or near the bottom" (re-training for jobs? restructuring systems from near-scratch?)
If our present lack of confidence - in markets, banks, leaders, etc - can be overcome well enough, we'll find again our natural self-assurance though it will be less buoyant than before. But more of Saturn's realism is no bad thing!
Perhaps we should 'retrain' our positive attitude toward, and love of, enterprise and hard work in order to get this recovery show on the road, no matter how long the dusty trail turns out to be.
And 9:00 pm in Washington is mere minutes beyond tonight's New Moon 6Pisces35, which I'm glad of - better than a few minutes before. We'll see how plans mentioned tonight are going come the next Full Moon (in 2 weeks, the Culmination stage.)
That we're poised at a new cycle of activity is obvious. Keeping the self-interested critics with their whines and dramatic flourishes - sour grapes from sore losers - in proper perspective while being certain their lies are exposed, will be big challenges going forward under the hazy, veiling influence of a Pisces New Moon.
Especially within the Politics of a not-so-revealing Washington, DC.

Obama adminstration letting us down on torture
The whole truth is needed from the Obama adminstration concerning prisoner torture. Falling back on Bush-Cheney tactics won't be good enough.
Makes me wonder what were the contents of the mash note Bush left in the Oval Office's desk drawer for the new president to, one assumes, profit by.
Perhaps it contained a "Please don't march me to the Hague" plea?

Raided lobby shop to get $8 mill in earmarks
Okay, we all need to squawk over this one.
The omnibus bill for the government's 2008 - 2009 budget season is hiding, at the least, a dirty little $8 million secret...make that was hiding.
How many omnibi does spendthrift Washington need? Are we-the-people to be left with nothing? Common-gooder that I am, the way I see it is this: the bandits of Washington, on Wall Street, and in CEO hide-aways and central banks are either for us or against us. But perhaps the response to that line in the sand goes without saying since 2008.
When Bush played president, the phrase was a fear-mongering tactic.
For us now, it's the life and lives of our nation or ___?___.
Why, even my old Aunt Granny Fanny is ready to lock 'em all up and throw away the key!

Comet Lulin and Saturn hooked-up and visible!
The Great Cosmic Coincidence of Feb 24, 2009
Space Weather News for Feb 23, 2009
COSMIC COINCIDENCE: What are the odds? On Tuesday, Feb 24, Saturn and Comet Lulin will converge in the constellation Leo only 2 degrees apart. At the same time, Comet Lulin will be making its closest approach to Earth--the comet at its best!-- while four of Saturn's moons transit the disk of the ringed planet in view of backyard telescopes.
Oh, and the Moon will be New, providing dark skies for anyone who wishes to see the show.The best time to look is around 1 am Tuesday morning (your local time) when the planet-comet combo ascend high in the southern sky.
To the unaided eye, Comet Lulin looks like a faint patch of gas floating next to golden Saturn. Point your backyard telescope at that patch and you will see a lovely green comet with a double tail.
Visit SpaceWeather.com for full coverage including photos, sky maps, and a live webcast.

'Golden Saturn'!! With my four natal planets ruled by Saturn, I'm suitably behooved to hear the Old Man described so glowingly especially since he has a rather bad rap sheet.
And you know that in the tropical zodiac, which applies for most of us western astrologers, the Lulin-Saturn hook-up is occurring in Virgo, but be that as it may, I have hopes of nabbing a peek at them at 1:00 am est in the morning.
Most comets I've been able to view from my deck, so I figure no matter how cold it is, I can mosey out there and give it a go!
