NEPTUNE RETRO ?

Uncategorized Add comments

I did my own denial, and dismissed Neptune turning retrograde!   Thirty-five days later !   reconsidering passing events,  nudging myself to some reality, I opened up my mind and eyes.  With all the shocking happenings around us, it has got to hit the collective consciousness of the rest of the country, too  What is really going on,  and why the manipulation of the truths?   We still might be foggy,  but  we all are beginning to wake up, out of our haze!   Oh!, and feeling that cold water, “in our face” !

May 31 Neptune turned retrograde at 28:42 Aquarius. This is of note particularly because Neptune
is currently in a quincunx aspect with   Saturn, an aspect of stress that is one  of the main astrological indicators of the Gulf oil spill.
With both these planets stationary  right now,
of course the problem is not being fixed. But we are all
fixed on it: an apparently insoluble problem with horrendous
repercussions.
During her retrograde cycle, she will retrace her steps from from 28
degrees and back to 25 degrees. This time around, however, Neptune’s
retrograde occurs when a rare and active set of cardinal eclipses,
cross & t-square are happening within the course of three months (June
and August).
Neptune is the dreamy planet that, at its best, makes us see beyond
the tangible world and explore spirituality, faith and fantasy. The
dark side of Neptune is that its love of illusion can inspire us to
escape to alternate realities we’ve created for ourselves — AKA
delusions.  Neptune rules all that which is hidden and operates in the unseen world –
our subconscious, psychological self, dreams, imagination, and spirituality. She is often associated with confusion, escapism (drugs/alcohol )
creativity (music), transcendence, “oneness,” and unconditional love.
Neptune can encourage us to live in denial. We all have specific
fears and hangups we don’t want to deal with — perhaps you ignore.
Chances are, Neptune is behind any excuses you invent to support these
ideas.
But when Neptune goes backward, it can feel like we’ve had a bucket of
cold water splashed on our faces. Because Neptune’s dreamy edge
usually allows us to gloss over unpleasant truths its move backward gives
us the opposite: a harsh wake-up call.

Neptune turns direct on 7 Nov 2010 at 25Aqu54

    vermont calling 99 – that is a bill that i thought already passed in israel, but maybe it has yet to be passed… here in canada harper is trying to pass something even crazier – anyone who compares israel to south africa’s apartheid regime will be guilty of some sort of offense, or something like that… the- harper- guy is insane! it is called wedge politics and he will do whatever he has to in order to divide and try to conquer, relying on idiocy to continue in power…

    anyway, back to that bill – it is insane as well..
    here is a somewhat non liberal view on this that is pretty thorough.

    DBLA, did you hear about the 500+ protesters arrested in Toronto @ the G20? Wasn’t Harper BFF with GW Bush?

    http://www.guardian.co.uk/world/2010/jun/27/g20-rioters-toronto-protests

    “The Shifting Sands of State Power in the Middle East,” by Alaister Crooke talks about the rising powers of Iran, Turkey, (and Syria), and how both Turkey and Iran’s fortunes have benefited from the fall of the Soviet Union, and the defeat of Iraq in the first Gulf War.

    Crooke also explains that given that the Oslo accords or “land for peace” has not resulted in a feeling of safety among Israeli Jews, Oslo has been discarded. Security is the top priority in Israel now. This is why settlements will not be stopped no matter who the leadership is.

    I’ve been looking at the Turkey and Iran charts: the February 11, 1979 chart for Iran, that is. Both charts share an ASC/DEC of 7 Cancer/Capricorn and an MC/IC just two degrees apart. This would suggest a close tie between the two nations that have become allies and together with Syria are rising powers within the ME. Iran’s Venus is conjunct Turkey’s 7th house cusp which suggests a congenial partnership indeed.

    One other thing in comparing the April 1 chart to the February 11 chart, the latter shows Saturn transiting the fourth house which signifies the people vs. the government and the opposition party or the party out of power, which would be Mousavi. Since there are no transiting planets in the fourth house in the April 1 chart, the ruler, Venus, had a Pluto sextile. So, the Saturn transit in the fourth seems to fit events in Iran during and subsequent to the widespread protests last summer, as well as the suppression and suffering of the people against the brutality of the regime.

    —————————————————–

    A loud explosive device was heard inside the huge U.S. embassy compound in Baghdad on Sunday night during the visit to Iraq by Vice President Joe Biden and Dr. Jill Biden, POLITICO’s Mike Allen reports from inside the embassy. The Bidens were “safe and unharmed,” an aide said. The visit was designed partly to highlight progress in the war zone. A U.S. official said: “There was a small explosion in the International Zone [formerly the Green Zone]. The incident is being investigated. There were no injuries or property damage.” Inside the 100-acre embassy, two “duck and cover” alarms sounded within an hour, and loudspeakers warned embassy occupants of “a threat of indirect fire,” a reference to a potential mortar round. An “all clear” was sounded both times.

    Heads up! It’s the Obusha/BP holiday weekend really bad news dump: Government and BP working together to assess oil spill damage [Thanks, Obusha!] 04 Jul 2010 In recent weeks, the Obama administration has sought pretended to distance itself from BP in handling the Gulf of Mexico oil spill — with one notable exception: When it comes to assessing how badly the spill has harmed the gulf, the two sides are working hand in hand. Their shared goal? To calculate how much it will cost to restore the gulf to its pre-spill state. But this close collaboration between federal and state authorities and BP has begun to spark concerns among lawmakers and some environmentalists.

    Got this from a friend of a friend, (one lives in Calif-)-this is “extreme” drama !!–but will pass it on—-

    It seems downright spooky that on the weekend when the USA is about to celebrate Independence Day — the July 4th holiday that commemorates freedom from tyranny — we are bringing you a disturbing report on how the U.S. Coast Guard, under the direction of the Obama administration, has suspended the First Amendment in the Gulf of Mexico.

    Free Speech is now illegal on the beaches of the Gulf Coast. Any reporter, photographer or blogger caught within 65 feet of an oil spill boom, vessel or cleanup operation will be arrested, fined as much as $40,000 and prosecuted with a Class F felony crime by the U.S. government.

    I’m not making this up. This is your “Independence Day” gift from the Obama administration, which once promised “transparency” in Gulf cleanup operations.

    It sounds like instant death for people who have no warning … within a few miles of the “ocean”, at the least. According RCH … not enough data is being released by BP or our Guv mint, to save 20 Million people.
    You might recommend to those that you personally know in the affected area that they immediately purchase a gas mask & an Ozone generator/ air purifier.

    The irrepressible Aries Moon harmonizes with romantic Venus in theatrical Leo, provoking us to overdramatize our feelings. But expressing our desires is complicated by an independent Venus-Uranus biquintile. Additionally, both the Sun and Mercury form aspects with imaginative Neptune, giving rise to doubt if we confuse our fantasies with reality. Fortunately, our emotions should settle down when the Moon enters simplistic Taurus at 8:29 pm EDT.

    Uranus turns retrograde on 5 Jul 2010 at 00Ari35

    Uranus retrograde:

    Uranus will move back into Pisces in mid-August and it will remain in Pisces until the Spring of 2011, completing its work of the past seven years as it traveled through the sign of spirituality and loss of Self. This period has corresponded to the rise of internet (Uranus) addiction (Pisces) as well as a spiritual (Pisces) revolution (Uranus) and acceleration of our energetic fields.

    a station direct, or a station retrograde is the most outstanding dynamic astrologically if it is happening.. that is the uranus dynamic at the moment…

    as for neptune, check out the fact that vermont calling had the interchange with her boss and the fact that a fellow named lorenzo has pointed out to me what may be a more valid chart for the usa, has to say… the chart is called potusa chart in campions book of world horoscropes…. it has 28 leo 40 rising which is 180 right where neptune has been and is casting a cloud over such things as the july 4th holiday here as well!

    for me, this chart has a lot of merit and i found working with it verses the gemini rising in connection with the gulf oil mess made better sense too…april 30 1789 1245pm new york are the details you need to make the chart…

    sbla – seattle and vancouver have much in common, but the multicultural dynamic is hughly more pronounced in vancouver then seattle circa 2009 anyway… i haven\t been down to seattle yet this year, but probably will in the next couple of months.. i really like seattle, but really you are correct about the cold factor which extends right down to about san francisco really as it is a similar climate… interestingly the people seem to share much in common as well, which runs counter to where the boundaries are between our countries…

    thanks for the links and data… i like knowing about the retro times and when they happen… the stationary direct times are also very useful… james

    DBLA,

    Read Ian Welsh’s post on Obama. At least he wasn’t fooled! Made an interesting comment in his post on Afghanistan that Obama is staying because without the stimulus from war, we’d be in a depression, which would mean defeat in the November mid terms.

    DBLA,

    In the almost 5 months I’ve been with him not once has he mentioned anything about, religion, spirit,meaning of life, after life, stars,planets, you get the picture?

    He refers to Obama, as “my” (meaning mine) boy….and blames all the woes of the world on this admin.
    Once in awhile he does criticize a repug/conservative.
    When I answer him I tell him we can’t relay on any of them,use your smarts, and prepare for the worst.
    End of story I say.

    I’ve finally learned that it’s not worth it, and I don’t have the desire anymore for these kinds of conversations.

    I do play a bit with discussions about the imploding world economy, and have said “how can anyone who considers themselves intelligent, and has all this info. be surprised if one day they lose it all?”
    And he’s go a lot to lose, family just put a wing on local hospital.
    He also pays no attention to world events, and thinks that all our problems are local VT. and the US, so quite often I will say to him that ” what takes place in other countries, especially the ME, is what will in the end determine our collective destiny”,
    He doesn’t even question me about that statement, just lets it pass, and that’s fine with me.
    I had many years with old bosses for the invigorating conversations and “what if’ possibilities, also and meetingof interesting people.
    Old boss when he calls usually says “Orion calling” when I answer the phone…lol
    Could be I burnt out on these topics,don’t really care anymore, cause people are going to do and believe what they want…..from having been a very social person,talker,to a much more contained person, just watching and waiting.

    And I’ve got you and all here to gab/rant to!!

    Over the weekend i was listening to 2 woman discussing on CNN their jobs at California’s DMV.
    For the last 18 months they had a 15% pay decrease, and now Gov. Arnold cut their pay to minimum wage of $7.25 per hour.
    Nowhere in the conversation did they mention what their pay had been before these cuts,anyone know what the starting Cali. state worker would have made and what about the ones that have been with the state for years?
    Both woman said it’s impossible to live on this pay,and rightfully so, but I wonder what their options are for new employment at higher wages.

    migrants from the developing world have come to Israel to replace the
    Palestinians, who were the country’s original source of cheap labor.
    At least 250,000 foreign laborers, about half of them illegal, are
    living in the country, according to the Israeli government. They
    include Chinese construction workers, Filipino home health care aides
    and Thai farmhands, as well as other Asians, and Africans and Eastern
    Europeans, working as maids, cooks and nannies.

    Netanyahu v Obama – different tactics From: Marjorie. (05 Jul 2010 09:06):

    Barack Obama will have another go tomorrow at trying to persuade Benjamin Netanyahu to halt settlement building in an effort to progress the pre-pre-pre-Peace Talks with the Palestinians.
    Relations between the two countries have sunk to a new low in recent times though Israel in typically bull-necked fashion is refusing to budge.
    This time round Netanyahu has been invited to stay in the inner sanctum in the White House so no doubt there’s an attempt to see if charm plus force works better than just putting the Presidential foot down which has clearly not registered.

    The Obama/Netanyahu relationship chart has an argumentative Mercury Mars conjunction which has been stressed earlier this year and will be again over the coming New Year and through 11/12. But all that’s showing at present are transits to the composite midpoints which indicate huge frustration (tr Pluto trine Mars/Pluto) and confusion, disappointment and plans not working out (tr Pluto square Mars/Neptune).

    On the USA/Israel relationship chart there is emotional intensity and a good deal of pushing and pulling with tr Pluto opp the composite Venus now and again in Oct/Nov and tr Pluto opposing Mercury Aug to Oct which will lead to major arguments with both sides standing firm. There could be a real low through Aug 2010 as tr Saturn is conjunct the composite Jupiter Neptune and then squares Mercury Venus – so a wider gap and less friendly mood. Where the US/Isr relationship chart gets really strung out is in 2011 as tr Uranus opposes that over-idealised Jupiter Neptune and squares Mercury Venus. So the pressure will be kept up.

    The Israel country chart is emotionally fairly intense and anguished with tr Pluto conjunct the Solar Arc Moon this month into July and on and off through later this year and 2011; as well as tr Pluto opposition Venus which has much the same effect – and will give Israel serious worries about its fading popularity (Venus). And tr Neptune returns to oppose their Mars thro’ 2011, continuing the sinking, panicky mood of this year.

    Elena Kagan – a Uranian Taurus From: Marjorie. (05 Jul 2010 09:40):

    Elena Kagan is Barack Obama’s choice for the Supreme Court. She’s right-ish though a firm advocate of gay rights, is unmarried and has never been a judge.

    Born on 28th April 1960 she has quite a chart. She has a stalwart Taurus Sun in an Earth Grand Trine to Pluto in Virgo trine Jupiter in Capricorn so is very practical, earthy obviously, good with money I’d imagine. Her Sun is also in a close opposition to Neptune making that an even more talented Kite with visionary Neptune as the driving planet.

    She’s also got a disciplined, hard working Saturn in Capricorn sextile Mars in a wid-ish Yod to Uranus; with Uranus also the focal point of a Fixed T square onto that Sun opposition Neptune – so she’s innovative but in a less disruptive way with Uranus being in Fixed signs, so just steady pressure for the changes she considers important. The Yod focal point Uranus(bit out of orb) will make her a catalyst and a trailblazer. From her wiki entry I gather she insisted her local synagogue gave her a bat mjitvah, the female version of a bar mitvah, the first they had ever done in the way she wanted. She was described then as ’strong minded and independent’ which rather covers a strong Uranus.

    Her feisty Venus Mercury in Aries are rather damped down by a square to Saturn. Her Gemini Moon may be square Pluto and could be sextile Uranus, even square Mars – so emotionally she’s quite variable.

    At the moment she’s got tr Pluto conjunct her Jupiter and trine Pluto – two legs of the Grand Trine – and definitely looking successful. In general this year and next she’s progressing well with tr Pluto sextile Sun/Jupiter as well. Admittedly tr Saturn will also square her Jupiter in late August which will be a setback and late October doesn’t look too chirpy on the job front either. Depends really when the decision is made but she looks much more successful rather than less.

    The annual salary for California Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger is the highest in the governor salary ranking, $206,500, but he does not accept his salary (he did pretty well in Hollywood, if I recall). As I mentioned in a previous column, Salary Increases in the News, Schwarzenegger has been generous to his top state officials, upping their salaries, often in the face of criticism.

    Today’s chart

    # Moon in Taurus: All day
    # Void of Course Moon: No
    # PLUTO IS RETROGRADE
    # NEPTUNE IS RETROGRADE
    # URANUS HAS STATIONED RETROGRADE
    # CHIRON IS RETROGRADE

    There is only one major aspect from the Moon today, a trine to Pluto in the early morning hours, EDT, and the Moon is in Taurus, the sign of her exaltation. That means she is very happy and functions well in this stable grounded sign, and so a trine to Pluto from here promises to help us grow exponentially (think tree and miracle grow infusion). With no other aspects to interfere with this growth process, it promises to be an important day in the overall scheme of things.

    from http://www.stariq.com
    A lot can happen on a quiet day in the cosmos when there are no major planetary aspects. It’s as if we are given time to catch up and handle issues that previously passed us by. The sensible Taurus Moon empowers us to choose the most practical path to our destination. But even after we set our course, the Moon’s soothing energy helps us avoid needless worry. The prospect of change is not as frightening now because we are more capable of resisting it.

    Time for Toughness: Eclipses tend to come in pairs —————
    On July 11 the New Moon in Cancer will be a solar eclipse seven degrees from the South Node. If we follow the nodal idea of evolving from the South to North Node, our collective growth comes from shifting from the qualities of Cancer toward its opposite sign Capricorn.
    Life is about impermanence, the Buddhists say, and these eclipses are stark reminders of that idea. Weeding the gardens of our old habits and instinctual responses to eliminate our dear but outmoded behavior requires some toughness.

    HaYovel is one of many groups in the United States using tax-exempt donations to help Jews establish permanence in the Israeli-occupied territories — effectively obstructing the creation of a Palestinian state, widely seen as a necessary condition for Middle East peace.

    many of the leading Israeli officials on Mr. Biden’s schedule, among them Prime Minister Netanyahu, were in a convention hall listening to the Rev. John Hagee, an influential American preacher whose charities have donated millions to projects in Israel

    Reassessment of Israel U.S. Relations Underway

    Although there was no evidence of it at today’s meeting between President Obama and Israel’s PM Netanyahu, the U.S. is reevaluating its relationship with Israel.

    Chris McGreal in the Guardian states:

    “A former director of intelligence assessment for the US defence secretary, last month caused waves with a paper called “Israel as a Strategic Liability?” In it, Anthony Cordesman, who has written extensively on the Middle East, noted a shift in thinking at the White House, the US state department and, perhaps crucially, the Pentagon over the impact of Washington’s long-unquestioning support for Israeli policies even those that have undermined the prospects for peace with the Palestinians.”

    “Last month, Israel’s ambassador to the US, Michael Oren, said the Jewish state had suffered a “tectonic rift” with America. “There is no crisis in Israel-US relations because in a crisis there are ups and downs,” he told Israeli diplomats in Jerusalem. “Relations are in the state of a tectonic rift in which continents are drifting apart.”

    http://www.commondreams.org/headline/2010/07/05

    Israel’s Venus is in the 9th house of international relations. The U.S. Venus conjuncts Israel’s Venus. Both are currently squared by Saturn in Libra, which is consistent with the reassessment currently underway within the White House, the State Department, and the Pentagon. The “tectonic rift” that the Israeli ambassador to the U.S. refers to is reflected in the combination of the Pluto opposition and the Saturn square to the Israel/U.S. Venus in Israel’s 9th house, and SA Uranus which is conjunct the cusp of Israel’s 11th house. The 11th house represents the allies of a country.

    Between now and the first week of August, Israel’s 12th house is being activated with transiting Saturn conjunct SA Mars in the 12th on July 10th. Then at the end of the month transiting Mars will conjoin SA Mars. The Mars Saturn conjunction in Libra at the end of the month which is part of the t-square with Pluto and Jupiter/Uranus, also falls in the 12th house. So, the most benign reading is that there are secret intrigues going on behind the scenes. But, it could also mean this is a dangerous time for Israel.

    DBLA @83,

    The Neptune transit to Israel’s Mars will be exact again on July 10th (same time that transiting Saturn goes over SA Mars in the 12th), and was before that in April of this year, but the transit has been operative since last October. So, events under Mars Neptune can occur at any time over the course of the transit, not only when it’s exact. But, the Neptune opposition to Israel’s Mars, plus all the activity in the 12th point to things going on under the radar. What may be an example, according to a link from the Seminal, Israel has been using the PKK, the Kurds, to attack Turkey.

    According to Crooke article, the Israelis do not feel they have achieved security under the land for peace provision of the Oslo Accords. Security is Israel’s highest priority now, not negotiating with the Palestinians. (I read somewhere that not a single candidate in the elections in Israel stood for peace with the Palestinians.) So that means they will not relinquish land in the West Bank, the building of settlements will continue, no matter who the leadership is. The Obama Administration evidently is unaware of the dynamics in Israel. It wants Israel to stop building in the West Bank in order to move forward with peace negotiations between Israel and the Palestinians, which is a priority for the Obama administration, not Israel. So, obviously Netanyahu’s statements today claiming that Israel is interested in negotiating with the Palestinians wasn’t intended for the audience in Israel. I think Netanyahu may simply be manipulating the Obama Administration. When the partial moritorium expires, we won’t have to look into a crystal ball to see what will happen. But I expect the Obama administration will express its “dismay” or some such.

    Israel’s relationship with Turkey continues to deteriorate. See #85. The astrological factors mentioned in #81 also apply to Israel’s relationship with Turkey. Given the circumstances, when Turkey assumes leadership of the U.N. Security Council, it’ll obviously be in a position to cause trouble for Israel. So, if Israel has any sense, it will apologize. The power dynamics in the Middle East are shifting, and that will not be to either Israel’s or the U.S.’s liking.

    I never took this into consideration————-
    “”events under Mars Neptune can occur at any time over the course of the transit, not only when it’s exact.”"

    I have been seeing the headlines about the “ruckus” with the Kurds, but did not read them–because I had too much in my head, ” for right now”. However: now I can go back and read them? I am shocked again ! The timing for Turkey to assume leadership for the U.S. too, is awesome/numbing ! But there are things going on under the radar with the 12th House dynamics ..
    I had an astrologer teacher that once told me that Aries were terrible strategists. I took offense! But he was probably right! lol–
    However, I was still trying to think what Obama’s strategy, might be? As Ian Welsh said, Obama, likes to be nice. He will do nothing, and let the other countries do all the escalation/boycotting and
    screaming >?
    I think he does know what is going on, ignores it and will act dismayed! He has no one in his administration nor Congress to back him up! What can he do? What can he do?
    More countries will ban against Israel’s audacity. And the power dynamics will shift.. This seems so easy to me–divide up the country, and be happy and live peacefully! Compromise? but this has gone unchecked for too many years. Arizona, is a smaller scale, and we need someone to blame for our problems here, our “security”.. There has been not been serious consideration on making AZ have a viable economy ( my opinion), except the military. We have Sen McCain/Kyl and Rep. Giffords to thank !
    The U.S. should have helped Israel to apologize…..

    Today’s practical Taurus Moon helps filter out fantasy, keeping us connected with what we know directly through our senses. But beautiful Venus and the Sun both create complicated aspects to indulgent Jupiter, tempting us to take our desire for pleasure too far. It’s wise to know and respect our limits; however, if we don’t pay attention to reason, the Moon’s square to Venus can expose the tension between what we want and what’s actually good for us.

    Turkey gives muted reaction after Clinton visits Yerevan memorial

    Ankara has conveyed its annoyance to Washington over Hillary Clinton’s
    visit to the genocide memorial in Yerevan, but has chosen to steer
    clear of exhibiting a bigger reaction since the secretary of state’s
    visit was personal and did not produce any official remarks

    Clinton’s visit to the genocide memorial was an important step,
    especially the fact that Clinton’s title was written on the wreath
    that she laid during the ceremony.
    “The title ‘U.S. Secretary of State Hillary Clinton’ on the wreath was
    a very important political message to Turkey,” he said, adding that
    Clinton’s visit proved that the United States has never denied the
    Armenian genocide as a fact. “The U.S. will officially recognize the
    genocide soon,” he said.

    Republicans And Democrats Lining Up Behind Major Changes To Social Security

    Last week, Democrats included a rider to the supplemental war spending bill that will likely force the House to vote on a forthcoming fiscal reform plan, if the Senate passes it first. That package is being put together by President Obama’s deficit and debt commission, and will be ready to go after the midterms. Pelosi had already pledged to give the package a vote, so perhaps nothing has really changed. But in a way, she also tied her own hands: if the Senate passes a broad tax-and-entitlement reform package at the end of this Congress and her own caucus is willing, she’ll be hard-pressed to stop the Social Security reforms she thinks should come last.

    At the other shore of the Atlantic, Obama has no choice but to swap support to Netanyahu with the much-needed American-Jewish votes to the Democrats at the November mid-term elections.

    The two walls have much in common — not only because both are built on land that was occupied by conquest, that displace indigenous people, and that separate families, but also because these walls are built by the same colonial forces. The Israeli firm, Elbit Systems, played a leading role in the construction of both walls. Naomi Klein warned that the US Apartheid Wall (which the US, like Israel, calls a “fence”) will have similar consequences to the one on Palestinian land:

    The Solar Eclipse – Endings and Beginnings

    In fact, the chart of August 6, 2010 has 7 planets squaring or opposing each other. This chart indicates very high tension and almost always results in either a significant disclosure or event. The market is dropping again but this time, were there to be a real downturn as there was in 2008, there are no reserves to be able to prop the economy back up. Interest rates are so low that they really can’t be lowered any further. Economists are very split on what, if anything, to do, which is a classic condition of so many squares. Obama and some of his advisers would prefer a stimulus package, but the nation, for the most part, wants to cut spending with no added taxes. Feelings are running very strong, but no one knows for sure what needs to occur. There is seemingly no consensus on anything.

    This country will be experiencing its Sun squaring Uranus in a year or so and this combination usually brings about some kind of rebellion or revolution. It is usually anti-government in nature.

    Chelsea and Marc – the USA’s Royal Wedding From: Marjorie. (06 Jul 2010 13:58):

    Chelsea Clinton is to marry Marc Merzvinsky if reports are to be believed on 31 July. The run up to that is going to be fraught with an explosive, disruptive Mars opposition Uranus the day before; plus a Saturn opp Uranus, Jupiter square Pluto just before that and a Saturn Mars conjunction on the day itself. Stresses, strains, bad temper, accidents, changes of plan. A few people throwing their weight around with Jupiter Pluto. Doesn’t sound tranquil.
    Chelsea, born 27 Feb 1980 11.24pm Little Rock, AR, US is a private, home loving 4th house Sun Pisces (though she’ll want to be in charge there) opposition a confidently ambitious Mars Jupiter in Virgo in her 10th. She has a much travelled 9th house Leo Moon which will prompt her to live abroad at some point in her life, plus an upfront fiery Venus in Aries. And an uncompromisingly independent, go-her-own-way Uranus in the 1st just below her Scorpio Ascendant. Her Venus is in a possessive opposition to Pluto in her 12th so she’ll be controlling in a subtle, behind-the-scenes kind of way.
    Marc born 15 Dec 1977 is a Sun Sagittarius with Venus Neptune also in Sagittarius trine Mars in Leo so he’s definitely fiery. He’s also subtly controlling with his Mars trine Venus Neptune Sun having Pluto on the midpoint/sextile of that. He has a happy-home Jupiter in Cancer in an expansive opposition to Mercury. He may have a Pisces or Aquarius Moon opp Saturn.
    Her Leo Moon and Venus in Aries do connect well with his Sagittarius planets though it’ll be noisy with her Moon conjunct his Mars. And if he was born after 10 in the morning and is a Pisces Moon then his Moon will be conjunct her Sun which is good.
    The problems may come from his hard working, nit-picky Saturn in Virgo conjunct her Mars Jupiter opp her Sun which will damp down her enthusiasm somewhat. And her Saturn is also square his Sun so it’ll work in the opposite direction as well. I suspect with all that Saturn it’s a marriage where work is going to play a central role and get in the way. Though she’s very used to that scenario from her childhood.
    Their relationship chart has an expansive though possibly also extravagant and over hopeful composite Sun opposition Jupiter; a passionate Venus trine Pluto; and a rather super-charged Venus opp Mars square Uranus (perhaps opp Moon) which suggest an unconventional marriage in which both need a fair amount of space.
    Chelsea’s about-to-be new father-in-law Ed Mezvinsky, an ex Democrat Congressman served seven years in prison for financial fraud, getting out in 2008. Born on 17 Jan 1937 he’s very unlike his son mercifully and has quite a chart. His Sun is in materialistic Capricorn opposition a controlling Pluto which is widely square a Mars in determined Scorpio opposition Uranus in Taurus. So he definitely likes his own way and is quite a risk-taker. His Jupiter in money-attracting Capricorn is trine/sextile Uranus Mars. He has the generational creative/neurotic Neptune in Virgo opp Saturn (and Venus) in Pisces square NNode in Sagittarius.

    Thanks for the AfPak info, I will get to it. Great information.
    I saw the BBC interview with Ken O’Keefe, he is fiesty, argumentative and fantastic. Only info I found is that he is a Leo. Glad to have a rebellious one…
    Of course, we have had too many friendly fire incidents…
    My post #126–very interesting watch, and how we will not get out of Afghanistan. Actually, I am proud of Bolivia, for not allowing the country to be taken advantage of !

    The London bombings were 7-7-2005 and we just had another anniversary–I knew Ruddy Giuliani was in London–I have always thought it was “odd” that he was in for 9-11 and then 7-7–
    I just went to research that again and discovered Netanyahu, was there too ???
    I had not heard that years ago?
    There was an “test” going on the same as 9-11, that kept NORAD busy and “out of town”?
    Rumor is that Netanyahu was called by the Israeli Embassy – to not go to the meeting early !!!
    It all just adds mystery to the bombing–”strange”

    Netanyahu was staying at the Aldridge Hotel in Mayfair. The conference
    venue was a few miles away at the Great Eastern Hotel close to the
    Liverpool subway station, where one of the bomb blasts occurred.

    Rudolph Giuliani’s London Visit
    Rudolph Giuliani, who was mayor of New York City at the time of the
    9/11 attacks, was staying at the Great Eastern hotel on the 7th of
    July, where TASE was hosting its economic conference, with Israel’s
    Finance Minister Benjamin Netanyahu as keynote speaker.

    Giuliani was having a business breakfast meeting in his room at the
    Great Eastern Hotel, close to Liverpool Street station when the bombs
    went off:

    7/7 Mock Terror Drill: What Relationship to the Real Time Terror Attacks?
    Fictional 7/7 “scenario” of multiple bomb attacks on London’s subway

    “I didn’t hear the Liverpool Street bomb go off,” he explains. “One of
    my security people came into the room and informed me that there had
    been an explosion. We went outside and they pointed in the direction
    of where they thought the incident had happened. There was no panic. I
    went back in to my breakfast. At that stage, the information coming in
    to us was very ambiguous.” (quoted in the Evening Standard, 11 July
    2005.)

    Israeli Finance Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and Rudolph Giuliani knew
    each other. Giuliani had officially welcomed Netanyahu when he visited
    New York City as Prime Minister of Israel in 1996. There was no
    indication, however, from news reports that the two men met in London
    at the Great Eastern. On the day prior to the London attacks, July
    6th, Giuliani was in North Yorkshire at a meeting.

    Attorney General Eric Holder signaled that the Justice Department may be conducting a sweeping criminal investigation into the Gulf Coast oil spill, saying that its suspected targets may cover more than just BP. “There are a variety of entities and a variety of people who are the subjects of that investigation,” Holder told CBS’s Bob Schieffer at the Aspen Ideas Festival in Colorado. “For people to conclude that BP is the focus of this investigation might not be correct.” Saying the investigation was “ongoing,” Holder added that there has been a “certain commonality of the way oil companies had been operating” in the Gulf.

    i think glenn greenwald hits a home run with his articulation of the usa media in that post i shared… the guy is on fire and making some of the water carriers for corporate media go stir crazy! good for him… watch the number of knives for him start to appear… he is hitting too close to home for many of these water carriers for the big media sell out..

    My post #90

    The Anti-Defamation League is monitoring the international fallout
    from the so-called �Free Gaza� flotilla, including the biased rush to
    judgment against Israel. The League will be issuing regular press
    releases, reports and fact sheets on the flotilla and the situation in
    Gaza. This page details all of ADL�s online resources, reports,
    statements and other materials on the Gaza flotilla affair.

    http://www.adl.org/flotilla/

    There could be more watching now? More awareness of what the press is saying/doing. Plus, the embarrassing event from Rolling Stone.
    Yes, Greenwald is doing a fantastic job, showing how we get dragged around by the nose< with incompetent reporting ! and we cannot give any reverence to any Arab.
    We will see if Greenwald os trashed more. I hope he keeps up his courage for the challenge…Peter Beinart was on c-span this morning–early for me though. I think I heard him say , that he was respectful of the Jewish heritage, but his children had to move on and not get caught up in the past…
    Is this another Saturn/Uranus test? and our Media has to pull away from this too? Until then, we can just appreciate Greenwald more… Greenwald had a link to the article below.

    Wow! this CNN News is getting “out ”

    The Israeli stranglehold on CNN

    Lilienthal used strong terms to describe the Zionist-Jewish octopus plaguing the American media discourse. I have no doubt that he would have cited the sacking by CNN this week of its senior editor for Middle Eastern affairs, Octavia Nasr, as a classical and scandalous example of how the American media is decidedly at Israel’s beck and call.
    One more thing. The American media claims independence from government. However, the latest scandal involving CNN shows that the American media nearly sheepishly follows the government line, which shows that freedom and US media are an oxymoron.

    The Jews In America want to be Americans not Israelis………..
    This Jewish Group is the founding Base of of early American Jewish settlers . and YES they despise The zionist .
    These jews were here for our Revolution, our civil and both World Wars.. and they
    died fighting side by side with all of our ancestors.
    So, that brings us to today,,
    This Jew, American as Apple Pie, combined with Same Like Jews In Other Parts Of The

    Those that are The “Them Jews”"
