Astrological comments on America, on Washington DC, and on the politicians who infest them...with a gentle sprinkling of world events
Surely this decision must be good news!
June 13, 2013 Breaking News: the Supreme Court rules that natural DNA cannot be patented.
Abuse of power by Washington has been a regular feature of our democracy by those who crave more control. The following 8-minute video-audio presents information on the Espionage Act of 1917, passed by Congress and signed into law the very same day by President Woodrow Wilson who had taken our nation into World War I barely 2 months before (after running on a 'peace' ticket while secretly pledging America to enter the war), and on the Sedition Act of 1918:
Espionage and Sedition Acts: Under the Auspices of Secret Government
Saturn (government; law; control) and Neptune (secret; invisible; spying) met in Great Conjunction once on August 1, 1917 @4Leo45 conjunct US natal North Node. Moon and NN were conjoined at 10Cap33 and 10Cap34 respectively, where underworld Pluto and his Cape of Invisibility now creeps. On August 1, 1917, Pluto @4Can45 was traveling amongst our nation's planets in Cancer (Venus, Jupiter, Sun...Mr. Underworld now opposes them) and was hitting two midpoints of note: Jupiter-Saturn (violent changes; restrictions) and Jupiter-Neptune (unreasonable plans; great losses--Ebertin.)
And of course you don't forget that the Obama administration is imprinted all through 2009 by the Great Conjunction/s of Jupiter and Neptune, the speculator-grand-schemer pair with their conjunction/s precisely hitting US natal Moon @27AQ33...We the People.
A Few Astro-Notes on NSA Leaker Edward Snowden and Saturn
by Jude Cowell
The Wikipedia page on Edward Snowden contains a measure of general biographical information about the fellow who leaked NSA intelligence to the media.
Born in Elizabeth City, North Carolina on June 21, 1983, Mr. Snowden, age 29, is being sought with all the force of America's global tracking abilities with help from other entities, it may be assumed. Some US congress members are focused on his alleged 'treason' though they don't care to discuss how the US Congress, the Executive Branch, and the Justice System have eroded the Fourth Amendment to the US Constitution with their overreaching surveillance tactics and data mining of all personal communications.
When the news of the NSA leaks began, astrologers instantly thought of Mr. Snowden's Saturn Return (see dates, below) when they heard his age of 29 years for this marks the cycle of Saturn around the Sun. Taking responsibility and accepting one's accountability are lessons to be learned from the Old Task Master, Saturn. And of course, Snowden's 30th birthday occurs on Friday, June 21st along with Summer Solstice 2013 when the Sun reaches 00Cancer00:00, a Cardinal World Point of Prominence, Fame, and Recognition. Well, Mr. Snowden has definitely achieved an abundance of recognition this year.
Here's a view of his natal horoscope set for noon since a birth time is unknown and with a few astro-notes added below the clickable image:
As you see, Snowden was born with a Geminian Mars out of bounds (a lone actor), plus, a Locomotive pattern (drive to success) with Mercury @10Gem49 as lead planet and his facility with technology and coding bears out these Mercurial placements. Even Mercury's traditional role as The Messenger applies. However, if born after 7:08:40 pm edt, the Sun was @00Can00 giving him a Water-Water blend of Sun Can-Moon Sco.
If born prior to 7:08 pm, he has Sun Gem-Moon Sco, an Air-Water blend of mistiness that can easily dissolve into tears. From his one interview, this doesn't seem to me to describe him--though 'leaker' applies to his current status so I'll include here a few details on both Sun-Moon combinations for your consideration.
Sun in Gemini with Moon in Scorpio
With Gemini the sign of Communications of all sorts (and of duplicity), there is much to be said for his having a Sun Gem-Moon Sco personality blend with the Moon in Scorpio (sign of spying, secrets, and betrayal) for the 24-hour period of his birth day so we can be certain his Moon (reigning need) is in Scorpio where controlling, restrictive authoritarian Saturn now treads. Plus, at a crisis 29th degree of Gemini, his Sun would strain toward 00Cancer and prominence while retaining the crisis emphasis he has set in motion through his own actions.
Natal Moon ranged from 10Sco53 to 23Sco42 of the Zodiac and with Snowden's current troubles, I'd say natal Moon may be nearer the lower degrees of Scorpio for transiting Saturn this month is at 5Sco+ and was at 11Sco+ in February 2013 when journalist Glenn Greenwald said their contact began. (North Node, a point of encounter, meetings, and publicity is in mid-Scorpio as well.)
My point is that a Saturn-to-natal-Moon transit is difficult and depressive for its sobering effects and burdensome conditions. There is often a forced change of residence (Hong Kong, then on to...jail?) along with emotional deprivation, anxiety, and loss. Mothers and other females in his life may suffer (and I think they already have.) Illness from the stress is likely to follow and we know he has been diagnosed with epilepsy and used the condition as an excuse for his flight to Hong Kong with leaks trailing behind.
Plus, while Saturn (government, law, and business) remained in the final degrees of Libra where it is exalted, Snowden had a three-fer Saturn Return: 1. December 24, 2011; 2. March 24, 2012; 3. September 16, 2012. Libra is the sign of balance and Snowden seems to want balance restored to a fairer level between the people and the governing class, and there are many hard lessons to digest with a triple Saturn Return which will color his life for approximately the next 29 years.
Now Sun Gem-Moon Sco provides a picture of one who is both an extrovert and an introvert, and is provocative and paradoxical. This combo has a gift for selling (a Geminian trait of commerce and trade) and is happiest when there are challenges and intrigues involved within work situations. Restlessness and cynicism may be evident, along with changeableness and inconsistency.
Sun Gem-Moon Sco is the natal blend of novelist G. K. Chesterton so let's hear a few words from him: "The Bible tells us to love our neighbors, and also to love our enemies; probably because they are generally the same people."
Water-Water Sun Can-Moon Sco
This blend denotes one who is perceptive, intensely emotional, and self-protective (good luck to him on that score!) and is deeply fascinated with what makes people tick. Genuine concern for the world is in evidence, and a preoccupation with hidden things is described. A lover of mystery and suspense, Sun Can-Moon Sco personalities believe in respecting the privacy of others (unless other chart factors interfere), and there is a subjective brooding quality to its suspicious nature.
Analytical powers are a talent, and when given a search warrant to look inside a bank account or other information, these powers become concentrated into a determination to discover the truth to the point of fanaticism. Living on the edge is attractive with this blend, and emotional courage emerges in times of crisis and duress--such courage he needs now and going forward so if this is his natal Sun-Moon blend, he possesses it.
Sun Can-Moon Sco is shared by neuro-psychologist, actor, and writer Jonathan Miller and the following quote from him seems very closely to apply to the stated views of Edward Snowden: "The human body is private property."
But apparently our personal communications are not.
Now as you see in the horoscope, there are several other chart factors of note such as a problematic Saturn-Pluto conjunction of control, a Jupiter-Uranus conjunction of international opportunities and tech breakthroughs, the Sun-NN-Mars trio that opposes Neptune (webs and spies), plus, Chiron the Wounded Healer sitting atop a star of Pleiades, Alcyone (something to cry about, exile, suffering) where the Solar Eclipse of May 20, 2012 occurred (00Gem20) in the 14South Series ('a peculiar turn of events'--Brady.)
Yet the hour grows late so I'll close with Edward Snowden's Pre-Natal Eclipse Saros Series, the 3 North, which is the PE Series of the CIA (1947) and of the attacks of 9/11/01. 3N themes are 'worries and obsessions, news involving young people, or news that transforms a situation. A caution is to not get carried away with large plans or activities.' (Brady.) Next occurrence: July 2, 2019 @11Cancer.
Great advice, but it's too late on all counts especially since 9/11/01 has been used to justify the USA Patriot Act which allegedly codifies our nation's march toward a Surveillance State which some call Big Brother.
Wonder if the mainstream media and politicians will now stop bashing 'fringe' broadcasters like Alex Jones and admit that he and others were right about the police state 'spyocracy' all along?

Most Sun-Moon blend info from Sun Sign-Moon Sign by Charles & Suzi Harvey, some from my personal notes.
Given my real world schedule, it would be an impossible task to provide in this post a list of current links to articles, videos, and interviews concerning the NSA/PRISM/data-mining/Snowden issues now dominating the 24/7 cycle of the news, and I trust you may find them for yourself as you wish. In fact, such news would be difficult for anyone to miss these days unless they inhabit an underground cave with no Internet connection or phone signal.
And as I always wonder, what should we be attending to when the circus masters of the media say, Look Here, American public! What's going on in an opposite direction that the powers-that-be want us to ignore?
Leaving that question aside for the moment, I wish to further mention notes on America's natal Mercury Rx (July 4, 1776 @24Can11 = '25Cancer') and its Sabian Symbol as given by both Marc Edmund Jones and Dane Rudhyar. Their word pictures for '25 Cancer' vary slightly and does the Solar Fire symbol used in the title of this post.
"25Can" (MEJ): "A dark shadow or mantle thrown suddenly over the right shoulder"...DESTINY. Positive expression: some dramatic manifestation of genius vital to the general welfare of man; Negative (shadow side--jc): a tendency to unwarranted presumption if not outright megalomania."
(Note the use of "unwarranted presumption" similar to warrantless wiretaps.)
Here's Baraka!
Now let's consider the entire interpretation by Dane Rudhyar for '25Can' = "A Will-Full Man Is Overshadowed By a Descent of Superior Power."
"We are dealing here with a man who uses his will and positive imagination in facing life's problems. 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.
In this fifth symbol we witness a more transcendent expression of "success." It is not merely external success (as given by society to its prima donnas), but a spiritual response, a sign of inner and uncommon ENDOWMENT."
Naturally, with the symbol's "Providential assistance" we are reminded of the Founding Fathers' use of Illuminati symbols upon America's Great Seal, symbols which were placed on the dollar bill under the Franklin Roosevelt administration (he, a Freemason as were many Founding Fathers including numero uno President George Washington)--the pyramid with the floating capstone and the Eye of Providence (or of Horus) that we now know symbolizes total and complete surveillance of the American people and of the entire globe.
E pluribus unum indeed.
Though to be fair, similar symbols had been used by other secret societies besides the Illuminati (May 1, 1776) yet infiltration of other societies has been an oft-used tactic to direct and maintain control over events and outcomes. I believe we see that this is same tactic now used by anti-government types who've infiltrated the US Congress in order to collapse the US government and cull the people in Darwin-esque fashion.
Yes, America's natal Mercury (Rx: inward spying!) is opposed by powerful Pluto Rx in Capricorn, sign of government, law, business (and Saturnian control and restriction) and has been addressed here many times, plus, Pluto's legendary Cape of Invisibility is certainly a large part of our spying picture of manipulation, oppression, and secrecy. When born or founded with a Mercury-Pluto opposition dangerous secrets are dealt with and are sometimes used against opponents when blackmail is deemed a necessary tactic.
*Now Sufi philosophy's concept of the perfect man in some ways seems to tally with Adam Weishaupt's Illuminati theory that man can through reason perfect himself and is in no need of rules, government, religion, etc.
And of course, 'reason' points to The Enlightenment era (the 'Age of Reason') and its planetary significator, the Uranus-Neptune duo. And since I've typed much on SO'W about this combo and its effects that work against society's best interests--meeting in Great Conjunction @'18Cap' as they did three times in 1993 and creating what I at least use as a natal horoscope of the modern-day 'new world order' that now spies on us--I shall add little to the wordage today--except to remind us all of the Sabian Symbol for '18Cap' of Uranus-Neptune since it touches upon the topic of this post:
"The Union Jack Flies From a British Warship"...POLITICAL POWER, its values and its dangers. Keywords: The protection afforded to individuals and groups by powerful institutions in charge of maintaining order." (DR.)
Positive: the self's ever-widening spread of interest in its insatiable desire to leave some permanent imprint of itself on everything it touches; Negative" (shadow side--jc): "smug or strong-armed paternalism." (MEJ.)
Uranus (progress; technological advances; Science; genius) and Neptune (surveillance, masks, veils, secrecy; the masses; the media) joined forces in 1993 with presidents Bush Sr and Bill Clinton handing them the wrenches with which to destroy the American public's right to personal privacy and thereby fatally wounding our democracy.
Speaking of Politics, that "organized system of hatreds", sometimes a mere cat--even one suffering 24/7 under the burden of mind-numbing ennui--can suggest good ideas for societal improvement. Presenting my favorite feline video star, Henri:

We Forfeit Our Privacy for Alleged "Security"
by Jude Cowell
Okay, I suppose it seemed to some readers that I protested too much during my 8 years of writing this blog concerning America's natal Mercury-Pluto opposition denoted in part by the Eye in the Pyramid's floating Capstone symbolizing the US government's overreaching spying tendencies which were allegedly justified by the terrorist attacks on 9/11/01.
With massive surveillance of US citizens codified by George Bush's signing of the USA Patriot Act on October 26, 2001 (video below, though Clinton and others had managed to erode the Constitution and Bill of Rights prior to 2001), the NSA and other spying agencies have had their naughtiness leaked to the press this week as you certainly cannot have missed.
As Rachel Maddow pointed out on on her broadcast last evening, let's not forget that John Poindexter was appointed by Dubya to head the TIA--Total Information Awareness unit of Homeland Security--Poindexter of Iran-Contra fame and prison sentence. Review its Big Brother logo if you wish and marvel at neocon audacity--the Eye of Surveillance casting its snooping rays upon a globe with the motto "Knowledge Is Power"! The 'TIA' label and logo were cancelled when the public freaked out over its nasty implications but obviously the program's surveillance practices have only increased as technology improved its abilities.
A quick peek at a horoscope of October 26, 2001 (White House--"This morning--" said Bush at the Act's signing) shows that at 10:54 am edt in Washington DC, Pluto @13Sag36 rises with its obsession for control and manipulation, and still in conjunction with US natal Ascendant as the planet of power, assassination, and the Invisible Cape was on September 11, 2001. As you know, transiting Saturn Rx (also a karmic planet of control and restriction) was @14Gem11 opposing Pluto and sitting atop US natal Descendant. A cruel, brutal, karmic combination is Saturn-Pluto.
Warring star of violence, Antares, is conjoined by Pluto the Spy, and Jupiter @15Can36, conjoins the Pentagon's natal Ascendant. Curious is the Sabian Symbol of Pluto's degree: '14Sag' = "The Pyramid and the Sphinx" with its Keyword: CERTIFICATION. My supposition at the time was (and is) that the so-called USA Patriot Act was considered by global government types as a certification of their total surveillance plan necessary for continuing to implement totalitarian control of America and the entire globe.
Illumination Point @29Virgo: "A Man Gaining Secret Knowledge from a Paper He Is Reading" (emails, etc!!)..."DISCOVERY. "A symbol of the world's conservatism...The fixity of idea by which human beings preserve their culture is also a protection for all hidden wisdom and unsuspected ways of knowing, since the deeper awareness is merely a broader reference or a further application of stabilities which constitute a universe at large." Positive expression: "imagination brought to the full of its powers through conscious effort"; Negative/shadow side: "loss of common sense in pure supposition." (The Sabian Symbols in Astrology, Marc Edmund Jones.)
'Wild Cards of the Universe': Eclipses Uncover Secrets
Now I could type much today concerning these topics but my schedule won't allow so yet I must include another Sabian Symbol which this week's leaks (predicted by the Solar Eclipse of November 13, 2012 @22Scorpio--an influence on Election Day 2012--as noted then conjoining America's 12th cusp of Politics, Secret Enemies, Large Institutions, Karma, and Self-Undoing--Scorpio = secrets and spies) lift up for our consideration as they appear in every news media.
Adding the Illumination Point opposite this degree is even more illuminating, but first see this on PRISM software, if you haven't or check out The Nation's Greg Mitchell on the Prism program; some italics and bold are employed to focus upon our topic:
'29Pisces' = "A Prism"..."VALIDATION...The reliability of normal processes and the consistency of true intelligence are the foundation of a common knowledge which man has been expanding through the centuries, and his continuance of the control he has gained over his environment is a promise of much more wonderful achievement ahead." Positive expression: exceptional accomplishment through judgment of unusual accuracy; Negative (Shadow Side--jc): fatuous pride of intellect.
Note: remember the US government's PROMIS software scandal of the early 1990s? Writer Danny Casolaro was murdered to keep his in-progress book on The Octopus (global crime and banking syndicate) from being published along with his knowledge of PROMIS--all his notes mysteriously disappeared from the Virginia hotel room the weekend his voice was silenced. Anyway, PROMIS was sold with 'backdoors' in place and we now hear of 'backdoors' to Internet servers. If Apple "never heard of" Prism, perhaps the program was called by another name.
Does it seem curious that first President and Master Mason George Washington's natal Venus position is 29Pisces? Or that PROMIS software may have been purchased by David Koresh, killed in the horrendous Clinton-Reno Siege at Waco?
Well, bless my Mercury-Pluto! Here's something I posted in 2011 concerning America's surveillance obsession, Mercury-Pluto: US Patriot Act 10th anniversary (Eye on the US dollar bill shown), and here's a view of the natal chart of the Pentagon with a few astro-notes included.
Plus, there's a related post Hylan, Bernanke, and the Fed to consider, if you may, for NYC Mayor John F. Hylan often spoke of "tentacles", "cats' paws", and "invisible government". Visit Hylan's Wiki page here which contains an excerpt of his most famous speech on such tentacled topics.
And since Stars Over Washington contains almost 4,000 entries (since 2005!) you may wish to scroll to the Search Bar of this blog and enter something like 'Eclipses' for a list of previous posts on leaks and the uncovering of secrets if you're interested in more than the Solar and Lunar Eclipses of November and December 2011 (both horoscopes shown).
Please note that tomorrow's New Moon (June 8, 2013 @18Gem 11:56 am edt) stimulates the Lunar Eclipse of December 2011 at the same degree. We might fairly say that We the People and all our communications (Gemini) are in process of being 'eclipsed' by an overreaching Surveillance State intent on forcing global government.
And they all worked so hard to scam us into giving up our right to privacy!
June 6-9, 2013: Hertfordshire's No-Fly Zone and No Public Access
by Jude Cowell
From June 8, 2013 through June 9, 2013, the Bilderberg Conference will be held in Watford, Hertfordshire, UK. Tracking the Moon beginning at 12:00 am BST (June 6) until 5:16 pm BST Watford when Luna reaches 00Cancer00 on June 9, we find three Sun-Moon combinations to briefly consider concerning this 'confab' that some say has an economic agenda to usurp the US Congress by setting policy without congressional input or interference.
This wouldn't surprise me especially when we note the constant undermining of the US Congress and the American public's trust in its competence, a plan of action which has been obvious for the last several years, if not decades. And I must add that the first year of the Obama administration--in fact, all of its years--is imprinted with the planetary signature of Jupiter-Neptune, the duo of speculators, wastrels, grand schemers, money-printing inflation, and bubbles'n'busts.
How perfect for Fed-head Ben Bernanke who keeps printing funny money to prop up the Obama economy after the Great Bush Heist of 2008! And with this weekend's opposition between Mercury and Pluto, we expect the Bilderberg Conference attendees to be dealing with secret projects, confidential info, and dangerous ideas that, if leaked, would probably cause financial panic or worse.
Notably, the Moon @9Gem38 (12:00 am BST) conjoins gold-hoarding Midas and trickster Pan (panic!) on Saturday June 8, day of the Full Moon @18Gem00 which was mentioned in yesterday's post on my WordPress blog. (The Moon enters Gemini at 4:32 am BST on June 7, 2013.) Are they preparing for their next engineered financial panic? Or will it be caused by their foreign enemies? Well, allegedly, Russia and China are not attendees but perhaps that's not suspicious at all.
So as you know, in Mundane Astrology the astrological Moon signifies The People, The Populace, the public mood, trends, publicity, reigning needs. The Sun describes leadership and goals of an egotistical kind. The two luminaries together provide more information than one of them alone so let's peek behind the curtain at the Sun-Moon blends from June 6 through June 9, 2013 (using 5:16 pm BST, as noted, when the Moon floats into Cancer, sign of shrewdness in business, domestic issues and products, self-protection, private enterprises, food and nurturance concerns including Real Estate. Naturally, the Sun remains in Gemini until Summer Solstice.)
Thursday June 6, 2013: Sun Gemini-Moon Taurus (the bull of Mithras and Wall Street) is an Air-Earth combo of rationality, efficiency, and productivity with abstract thought meeting the world's nitty-gritty issues in a scientific approach. Knowledge is practically applied for ideas can be turned into reality.
Negatives of this blend include a tendency to talk over and over the same ground, over-absorption with self, and a lack of sympathy for the feelings of others.
Now here's a flash of enlightenment from a past financial wizzard who shares the Sun Gem-Moon Tau combo natally--Cornelius Vanderbilt who famously asserted that, "What do I care about the law? Hain't I got the power?"
Friday June 7 retains the above blend until 4:32 am BST when the Moon leaves Venus-ruled Taurus and enters Mercury-ruled Gemini. As you know, Sun Gem-Moon Gem, is the blend of Saturday's Full Moon which I discussed here if you're curious. But I shall add the quote I posted there from a famous economist of yesteryear who shares this blend natally--John Maynard Keynes: "Ideas shape the course of history," which evidently is what Bilderberg conferences are all about.
As noted, Saturday June 8 is the day of the Sun Gem-Moon Gem Full Moon; click the above link for more info on this Mercurial blend with its trade and commerce implications.
Now Sunday June 9 remains a double Gemini day until the Moon enters Cancer at 5:16 pm BST giving an Air-Water Sun Gem-Moon Cancer tone toward the end of the secret conference. Intimate communications are on the menu, as are acute perceptions along with a vibe of clannishness. Feelings and thoughts may become confused or mixed with this blend and its Air-Water quality turns misty and ethereal as it reflects on hidden meanings.
Sun Gem-Moon Can is super-sensitive and doesn't handle criticism well. The usual lock down on discussion topics and decisions has become well known through the years and helps tamp down interference and criticism from the general public whose lives are affected by the Bilderberg actions which may issue from this conference as they revel in their 'grand awareness' of what's going on. Yet remaining attached to old emotional biases and myths is implied by Sun Gem-Moon Can and is something that may be addressed for its attendees who must get aboard the global government train no matter what havoc it threatens to wreak upon millions of people's lives.
Now I'm not certain how the following words from a Sun Gem-Moon Can native apply to this weekend's Bilderberg Conference but I'll close with them and assume that you will decide, if you may. This is from one of my favorite authors:
"If Galileo had said in verse that the world moved, the Inquisition might have let him alone." --Thomas Hardy.

You'll find more Sun-Moon blend information in the Harveys' excellent book Sun Sign-Moon Sign.
With the upcoming New Moon in Gemini on Saturday June 8, 2013, here's a smidgeon I posted about it today on my WordPress blog concerning its Sabian Symbol: "A Large Archaic Volume if you're curious (well, Gemini is the sign of curiosity!)
In addition, you'll find very useful information on Saturday's Gemini New Moon by moseying over to read Depali Desai's excellent overview at Celestial Space. Plus, Libra Seeking Balance provides valuable information if you're interested.
The June 8, 2013 New Moon is the seeding phase of activities that will come to fruition/fulfillment/culmination at the Full Moon of June 23, 2013 @2Cap09 (7:32 am edt), a day when Luna is quite active so it will be a busy day for most people. Her aspects after perfection are a sextile to Saturn in Scorpio (11:58 am edt), a sextile to Neptune in Pisces (12:28 pm edt), a conjunction with powerful Pluto in Capricorn (8:37 pm edt), and she rounds out her daily tasks by squaring radical Uranus in Mars-ruled Aries (11:27 pm edt.)
As you can tell, Lady Luna sprinkles fertile moon beams over the Water Trine between Saturn and Neptune, then goes on to alert the difficult Cardinal Square energies between Uranus and Pluto...which does not sound to me like a very quiet weekend at all.
Hope I'm wrong!
Saturn-Neptune: Secrets Not So Secret For The People
by Jude Cowell
If you dare and have the time, here's a site that's new to me in case you wish to check out such topics as Who the new world order aggressors are and What their agenda includes...it's Something for the People which also links to Cutting Edge.
Cutting Edge provides a Timeline of events that most people remember but may not have realized their full significance while they were occurring. One such is the "Fall" of the Berlin Wall, an important timer on the road to the 'new world order' (or, 'new world economic order' as some call it including Pope John Paul the-whatever.) Apparently the Vatican is the chosen vessel of the new order's "religious" content as if that makes the slightest bit of sense to a Protestant like me! Plus, some say that the "Mark of the Beast" in Scripture is Sunday worship which doesn't jive at all with the 7th-day Sabbath keeping of this blogger or with that of other believers who take seriously the ministry of Jesus Christ.
Not to mention those of other faiths who worship on Fridays or on other days!
The solemnity of Saturday ("Saturn's Day") has not been changed by the Vatican, they just pretend it has and use the fact that almost all Protestant denominations misguidedly follow them into Sunday worship--24 hours too late! The Sabbath is a 24-hour window of Time through which we may see Eternity, all the way back to Earth's Creation Week and as such it has not changed or been changed from its Fourth Commandment sacredness which admonishes us to "Remember the Sabbath Day". In fact, Jesus rested in His tomb on the 7th-day Sabbath and arose on the First Day of the Week, the day of the Sun, the day the Vatican is determined that everyone will eventually observe--if they want to 'buy or sell'.
Planetary Markers of a 'new world order'
Now if you're an astrologer you know that on the night the Berlin Wall was torn down (November 9, 1989), the *Great Conjunction/s of Saturn and Neptune were occurring (from 10 to 12 Capricorn, where transiting Pluto--the Pope; the Secret Hand--now treads. This creates a midpoint picture which links 1989 with current day so let's consider its potentials for manifestation while remembering that the pair of Saturn-Neptune denotes such things as Communism, Socialism, Bolshevikism, Capitalism, Materialism v Spiritualism, secret/invisible government, martyrs, poor and depressed people, suffering, leaders who deceive, strong v weak, etc--and walls (Saturn) dissolving (Neptune):
1989 Saturn-Neptune = tr Pluto 2013+: rejection of responsibility and denial of guilt by guilty parties; new ideas on evolution upset long-held but weaker historical theories; punishment for those who've let decay and decadence persist (the IRS' spend thrifty parties and dance videos? A Joy Coach?? jc); feeling downtrodden; tremendous fear of loss; fear.
And of course, emotional manipulation especially via fear is one of the main tools by which propagandists sway the public toward acceptance of a 'new world order' in which, as we've already seen in Newtown, CT, our children are not safe from their gun-toting grasp.
~:~
Further reading may be found concerning what was the next Planetary Marker of a new world order, the Great Conjunction/s of the Age of Enlightenment Planets, Uranus and Neptune, which conjoined in Capricorn all through 1993 and hinted at "smug or strong-armed paternalism" vibes of totalitarian control. Here are a few astro-notes and the primary natal horoscope I use to study the NWO in our era.
Speaking of our children not being safe from these reptiles, the 1993 chart particularly pertains to the presidency of Bill Clinton who presided over the Siege at Waco (military force used to kill innocent US citizens including children--did the American people protest overmuch?) and the Bombing of the Murrah Federal Building in Oklahoma City, OK (1995) where papers and records concerning the Waco conflagration were stored--and where children attended daycare, much to our sorrow, but little to our protest.
Also see my 2008 unedited post on the Oklahoma City Bombing which includes the horoscope. You'll see, among other things (click the horoscope to enlarge) that America's natal Uranus @8Gem55 rises with its indications of rebellion, revolution, uprisings, separations, and explosive actions and upsets--and of course Gemini and its ruler Mercury relate to young people, children, papers, and records.
*1989: Saturn conjunct Neptune: 1. March 3 @11Cap55; 2. June 24 @11Cap14; 3. November 13 @10Cap22; the "Fall" of the Berlin Wall occurred 4 days prior to Conjunction #3 with transiting Jupiter opposite @10Can38 and Rx...
1989 Saturn-Neptune = 1989 Jupiter: expanded ideas that reality is just a vision ("life is but a dream"? sing along!); deceptive practices are further concealed by religious ceremonies (Munkasey); depression; narrow-mindedness; egoism; easy upsets (Ebertin); very upset with the ways of the world; losing the will to fight (Tyl.)
