A&E's 'Astrology: Secret in the Stars' video
This classic A&E program hosted and narrated by Leonard Nimoy has esteemed world class astrologer Rob Hand included, and is a 10 min 3 sec video of Part 1 of 5.
Part 1 touches on the 5,000 year cycle of the Mayans which ends Dec 21, 2012 - the Winter Solstice that only a few people await with confidence.
Sometimes I wonder if our modern 'new world order' types, who prefer rewards of an earthly kind, are using that already fear-infused date to bump up propaganda for their own agenda thereby causing whatever they have in store economically and governmentally to be more readily accepted than it otherwise would - by 2012.
Are massive world wide 'false flag ops' possibilities, too, in case the Mayans are wrong?
What do you think? You don't have to accept the legitimacy of Astrology to have an opinion, but it does help.

Edgar Allan Poe finally gets decent funeral service!
Kudos to Baltimore!
Between my long time love of the writings of Edgar Allan Poe and 2009 being the 200th anniversary of his birth, I happily report that Edgar Poe is finally receiving the decent funeral service he deserved in 1849 rather than the travesty and gossip he got.
And with tomorrow, Oct 7, being the 160th anniversary of Poe's death, I've been a busy little Poe bee this week writing on the Astrology of his natal and death charts with links provided therein for Those Who Wish to Know More.
I've even gone so far as to publish an Ode to Readers of Poe, such as it be.
Maybe now that annoying bird scratching at my window pane will fly away to Baltimore in time for a brilliant author's belated and respectful funeral...and only 160 years late. Yet 'twas not Poe who was late to his own funeral...only the rest of the world!

It's official: ditching of the US dolllar - buy gold
Update 7:53 pm edt: did I type the post below too soon? Public Radio's MarketPlace is poo-pooing the dollar's demise - or providing counterbalancing propaganda to keep us from freaking out!
Original post begins here:
China, France, the Arab States and others are ditching the US dollar as reserve currency and one would think that the US and UK must be very worried.
Cries of denial from the White House which once rang hollow will now sound nutty to me so I went searching for a news article on the situation as it stands so far. The only one I've found is from BBC News in the UK, which will be forced to join in with the euro after all if the dollar fails.
BBC News reports that today's top price of gold in London and New York - over $1,039 per oz at 7:22 pm edt - is due to concerns over the falling dollar.
Wonder if Afghanistan is all that President Obama has held secret meetings about of late? If it is, what in the world is he thinking?
Astrologically, the recent 'grim reality' transit of clearheaded, restrictive Saturn to US natal Neptune (idealistic planet of dreams) in hard-working Virgo (in 9th house of Foreign Lands) keeps on giving - health care reform morphs into health insurance reform - and it's not been feelin' so well.
Now more cold water is tossed in the faces of working people's dreams for America, their families and futures.
But not to fret - our plutocratic oligarchs are feelin' fine.
Please see my previous post for Ron Paul's views on such subjects as gold and the Fed...video provided.

Ron Paul speaks on returning to a Gold Standard
Here are some of Ron Paul's ideas about returning the US to a gold standard and repealing legal tender laws which force us to use worthless paper money.
In his conversation with Fox News, Dr. Paul mentions a bit of siver-gold history, a debate still raging after all these years, for as you may remember, presidential candidate William Jennings Bryan framed the gold-silver issues well and famously in his Cross of Gold speech at the 1896 DNC convention. (Some Astrology involved, but post also contains a link to Bryan's Cross of Gold text which you can read with your own eyes. Plus, he made a recording of his speech later on because it was so popular with the American people.)
So for a little history on the gold standard vs worthless money debate (and Congress' delegating the creation and issuance of our money to privateers like the Federal Reserve Bank against the US Constitution, as Paul notes), Bryan's speech is a great place to start.

And I just thought of two more players who should be noted. Here's what President Woodrow Wilson said after he created the Fed with a flourish of his pen; plus, the post contains a link to Andrew Jackson info, the president who fought against central banks and their throttle hold on the US government.

WellPoint sues Maine, Evan and Susan Bayh richer
Susan Bayh, who is on the board of Wellpoint and is also the wife of public option naysayer, Senator Evan Bayh (D), can explain what's going on at the company that has made her a very rich woman.
WellPoint sued an ENTIRE STATE to increase profits.
Netting $2.5 billion in profits last year wasn't enough for WellPoint, the nation's largest insurance company.
Now, WellPoint's affiliate, Anthem Blue Cross and Blue Shield, is suing the state of Maine for refusing to guarantee it a profit margin in the midst of a painful recession.
As if Mainers didn't have enough to worry about just struggling to put food on the table, WellPoint is intent on forcing them to cough up 18.5% higher premiums on their insurance policies.
While WellPoint lobbies against granting Americans the right to affordable coverage, it's claiming that it has the right to a guaranteed profit margin, paid for by struggling working families. Mainers are outraged, and they're fighting back.
Yours,
Robert Greenwald

Astrology of Edgar Allan Poe's life and death Oct 7, 1849
Having just published an article on the Astrology of the life and death of Edgar Allan Poe, I'm giving you here a heads-up in time for Halloween 2009.
My 'Poe post' was begun in August and saved as a draft which keeps it in line of my August posts, thus this alert for you.
Pictured you will see Poe's death chart for October 7, 1849 making Oct 7, 2009 the 160th anniversary of his sad death in a Baltimore hospital after being found delirious on the streets - perhaps from falling off the wagon in a big way, and/or perhaps from political 'couping' - read and see what you think.
Through the years much controversy has attended the poet's demise (and life), and perhaps you've heard of the mysterious Poe Toaster who faithfully visits Poe's gravesite each year.
Well, all this Poe posting may get you in the mood for Halloween, may it not? And the article contains quite a few links to info about Edgar Allan Poe's life and death, so check it out when you have a few moments to...chill.
