Just a brief heads-up on a freshly published post concerning Leo Tolstoy who was born in 1828 during a Saturn-Uranus opposition which was ongoing when American president Andrew Jackson was elected.
With Saturn and Uranus currently in opposition - and Barack Obama elected on the day (11.4.08) that the two antithetical planets' opposition was exact - we're seeing similar themes in the collective: old order vs new order...'War and Peace ' issues plunked onto every table and splashed across every headline...so check it out, if you get a chance.
In my post, you'll find a link to astrologer Philip Brown's article on the Tolstoy-Saturn/Uranus theme from his AstroFutureTrends website where you'll find more of Philip's excellent and lucid writing!

2009: 10 reasons to hope and 3 to fear
10 Reasons to be Hopeful about 2009, 3 Reasons to be Terrified
By Sarah van Gelder
We're entering a new year at a time unlike any other in recent memory. Here are 10 reasons I'm filled with hope as I look ahead at 2009 - and three reasons I'm terrified.#
Sarah van Gelder is editor of Yes! Magazine which I've only discovered this very day. Check out her reasoned reasons when you can but ixnay on the earfay - that's just what terror promoters, who really came into their own with the August 11, 1999 Solar Eclipse, want us to feel - so I refuse!
The 1999 Eclipse is what Nostradamus called the 'King of Alarm' (or 'King of Terror') Eclipse and who could now disagree with the fabled and ancient astrologer that things haven't been the same since?
Of course, if we think for one moment that terror promoters aren't perfectly capable of using Astrology and of reading Nostradamus' or any other prophet's predictions, we'd be quite wrong, wouldn't we?
~:~
See horoscope chart of the King of Alarm Eclipse with a few details, if you wish.
This Eclipse is from the 1 North Series whose keywords include: avoid hasty decisions because information is distorted and possibly false.
Ya think, oh pretenders of banking and charlatans of politics? What busy little bees you've been since 1999.

Coal Ash Flood 12.22.08: Saturn opposing Uranus
Dec 22, 2008 marked the largest environmental disaster of its kind in US history, the coal ash flood - or 'spill' - in Kingston, Tennessee, 40 miles west of Knoxville at the Kingston Fossil Plant
The initial estimates of the size of the carcinogenic sludge were woefully short and it turns out from aerial photographs that the actual amount is 5.4 cubic yards, enough to flood over 3,000 acres one foot deep. Three houses were destroyed by the coal ash flood which occurred when an earthen retaining wall gave way after much rain and cold temperatures.
And since coal ash is not regulated as a hazardous material, we may be hearing - or experiencing - more such disasters.
My guess is that we already have on some level - unless you like arsenic and mercury in your drinking water - because unlined ponds for capturing this lead and thallium infused muck are the preferred way the US coal industry and the TVA like to 'handle' this health threat.
In other words - they don't. No one had a plan for if/when the holding pond failed! So I have to say: don't debate the regulation of this hazardous material - line the nation's holding ponds, for cryin' out loud...line first, debate later.
Planets and Stars:
Dec 22, 2008, Kingston, TN, at appr 1:00 am est gives 5Lib31 rising, chart-ruler Venus 16AQ23 conjunct wounding Chiron in 5th house of Risk-taking, Gambling, and Children who may suffer nervous and reproductive disorders from such material which contaminates ground water.
Venus applies to conj with watery and often deceptive Neptune (5A46.)
At Midheaven is 6Can07, a Water sign, with Mercury 15Cap19 and Jupiter 26Cap43 in 4th house, along with the Pluto-Chiron midpoint of corporatism, oppression, racism, environmentalism, and disenfranchisement of all kinds.
The sign Cancer has nothing to do with the disease, cancer, but in this case, it seems too descriptive for comfort - and at the WHY? Point of the chart (Mc.) Of course, we associate business and making money with the sign, Cancer, along with protection and security.
And we can't miss the fact that Dec 22's early hours were the perfecting of Sun conjunct Pluto at a World Point. At 1:00 am est: Sun 00Cap46; Pluto 00Cap54, with Mars 26Sag13 nearby, all in 3rd house of The Neighborhood, Sagittarius the sign of the foreigner.
Asteroid Atlantis was conj Sun/Pluto as well - keywords: abuse of power; feeling doomed. Not a fun trio, that's for sure.
There are three midpoint pictures of note:
Mars-Pluto = Sun: accident potential; passionate attack to achieve an objective; upset of plans that is irredeemable; intervention of some undeniable force or authority. Guess the Tennessee Valley Authority might be included in that last one.
Moon-Neptune = Mars: weakened system.
Uranus-Asc = Mars: making things happen raucously; devil-may-care attitude. (All midpoint pics: Noel Tyl.)
Did I mention that asteroid Cupido (corporations; The Family; brethren) arose at 1:00 am? Cupido 6Lib00 - which makes it a transit to George Bush's natal Neptune. And like Eros, Cupido has a link with piercing (as with Cupid's arrows.)
Now I'm not making a case for sabotage, I'm just noting what's in the chart for Kingston's coal ash flood of Dec 22, 2008. At least I don't think I am. Seems with the 'weakened system' and poor planning and support, it was an accident looking for a place to happen.
Conjunct Fixed Star Denebola (to go against society; out of the mainstream), Saturn 21Vir41 opposes Uranus 19Pis00 (a Water sign) and we always look to Saturn when we think of 'earthen' and containment, which the pond did not do. Uranus (sudden events; lightening) in Watery Pisces affected the earthen retaining wall (Saturn) which should have been well-lined (Saturnian boundaries again.)
Well, Saturn was dissed, and he does not like that. Will this disaster prove that his lessons can be learned and applied by an AWOL government? I say 'AWOL' because as an American citizen, I did not give my government leave to become slack and sorry! Did you?
My heart goes out to the folks who live near this disaster which could have been lessened or avoided if such materials were regulated and government agencies performed their duties to protect the American people rather than the coal industry's bottom line.
But why fret? The TVA says mercury and arsenic levels in the area's drinking water are "barely detectable" so make mine a double over ice, would ya?

McKinney calls Obama out on Gaza crisis
McKinney to Obama: "Say Something" About Gaza Humanitarian Crisis
By BAR
"I would like to ask my former colleagues in the United States Congress to stop sending weapons of mass destruction around the world."
There are conflicting reports about an incident involving a yacht with relief and supplies for Gaza and former Georgia Congresswoman Cynthia McKinney was the only American on board.
McKinney was born in Atlanta, Ga, March 17, 1955. Her natal Sun Pisces-Moon Capricorn blend has a very appropriate Image for Integration which she shares natally with none other than George Washington:
'An old freighter chugs toward the port bringing in the goods."
Well, the old freighter tried to bring 'em in!

MarketPlace features Astrology 12.31.08
Today MarketPlace turned to Astrology for answers about what's going on with the economy.
Pluto in Capricorn and what it means to society and the transformation of markets and banking - never thought I'd hear such analysis on PRI's MarketPlace!
But it's New Year's Eve so if this is a sign of a leaf turning over or a resolution surfacing for the new year, I like what they're doing with the place...MarketPlace.

Note2 to Jilly: have seen coal sludge spill chart for Dec 22, 2008, 1 am, Kingston, TN. Forgot earlier today when I replied to you that it's New Year's Eve so I'll post on this interesting chart asap. Thanks for the spur, Jilly! jude
Obama's first test: Gaza?
Obama's first test seems to be Gaza and Israeli aggression, one president at a time though we be.
How do you think the Hawaiian vacationer did especially since he didn't mind speaking out about Russia's incursion into South Ossetia but is hiding behind the 'one president at a time" smokescreen when it comes to Israeli war plans which were laid months ago?
As the Capitol Steps jesters said just now, Screople can poo up anything.

Obama's senate seat to Roland Burris?
Who? Roland Burris. That'll be Senator Burris to you if Blago has his way.
Well, they tried to stop him and plan to ignore him, but Gov Rod Blagojevich is said to be appointing Roland Burris to Barack Obama's vacated senate seat.
Guess if this were a B horror flick we could say, It came from Illinois...

Solar and Lunar Eclipses of 2009
Boondoggle for trillions and front for spy satellites though it may be, NASA can be useful to society such as providing details on 2009's Eclipses - like their paths of totality and visibility.
History of 2009's Eclipses and future dates are also given.
Here's the Solar-Lunar Eclipse list of occurrence from Brady's Predictive Astrology:
1. Solar 6AQ30: Jan 26, 11 North: people suddenly change groups with which they are mixing, through travel or ideas; the separation produces positive benefits;
2. Lunar 21Leo: Feb 9;
3. Lunar 15Cap: July 7 (NASA says it's so minor it's invisible);
4. Solar 29Can: July 22, 11 South: old methods and ideas fail and new systems are required to deal with events; sudden reforms are
necessary and any blocks could be violently or tragically removed.
5. Lunar 14AQ: Aug 6;
6. Lunar 10Can: Dec 31, 2009.
