This week - and today - election day, we have a heated set of planetary aspects. But, surprise, emotions are high on the campaign trail and Americans are looking for a fight, no matter what side of the ‘fence’ they are on. This has caused people to even attack ME for making Astrological predictions. sheesh!
Here on this blog, I have gotten slammed on a number of occasions simply for stating my Astrological perspective and making Astrological predictions. Ok, sure I have an opinion too. I’m human. Just for the sake of transparency here is where I am coming from:
1) My number 1 concern and care is for the environment and the planet. And I don’t just talk about it, I run a biodeisel car. I despise the oil companies and what is happening to our world because of pollution and greed. I put my money where my mouth is. I cannot in good conscience give my money to these oil criminals. Precious few people are really doing what matters and taking themselves off of the system that doesn’t work. For me, I believe this is the ONLY thing we CAN do. I don’t think politicians can save us.
2) I run a business, a company and I care deeply about how policy effects my ability to pay people! I am an extremely practical person. I only care about what WORKS. I knew 7 years ago that the mortgage system was being built to fail, and I said so in my columns (Oh yeah, people attacked me then too).
3) I grew up as the child of hippies, Aura is my real name for pete’s sake. So I know first hand what all the weaknesses of delusional, fairy tail, escapist thinking can be. I actually see the rational side to EVERY argument. And I don’t like politicians. None of them. I think our problems are bigger than this. I advocate individual change and responsibility.
4) I believe the best political activism is the activism that creates individual action and personal change and responsibility: plant a garden, get on bio-fuels, invest in wholistic self-sustaining systems (stay away from get rich quick schemes!), take care of your own health by eating healthy and doing regular intestinal cleanses, and exercise, work together with other people, be part of community, live with good values and treat people as you’d like to be treated.
Pretty simple really. Pretty common sense, but for some reason people who read my Astrology predictions think that I am a politico. I am not. I hate politicians (yes, all of them), I just state what I see. I often see things I don’t like, but I am prescient in a way that people need to hear, so I share it. I have even been accused of creating the things I see. Please people! I am merely a messenger. All I want to do is laugh at how crazy this 3 ring circus has become:
Yeah. laughter really IS the best medicine. And here’s my most poignant Astrology prediction yet: We will all need our sense of humor to get through the things that are coming up, because the whole thing is completely INSANE. It doesn’t matter what side of the political warfare you find yourself on, a little kindness, a lot of humanity and deep servings of humor are going to be indispensables. That’s my Astrological story, and I’m sticking to it.
I keep saying on this blog that the Solar Eclipse allows the feminine energy of the Moon to ECLIPSE or overshadow the standard business as usual stale old boys club Solar energy of the SUN. Well, now Paris Hilton has gone and proved it, in a very hilarious way.
If you’d like to see it at it’s original exclusive location it is at funnyordie.com.
This Paris Hilton video is a satire of the very successful campaign ad that McCain just ran. And just in case you’ve been stuck in the outback fighting off Dingo’s and walleroo’s for the past 2 weeks and missed the original McCain AD that closed a 9 point gap between him and Obama in just a week here is the CBS coverage of it:
Well, it is true that she’s way hotter than either the white haired old wrinkly guy OR that other guy. And no matter how you slice it, I would vote for her policy way before either of those b*tches. How come it takes a *dumb blonde* to bridge the gap that neither the Political parties, the pundits nor the posers can manage to achieve?
Much is being made of astrology in politics these days. Everybody and their cousin is talking about Hilary vs Obama and their Horoscopes. It is worth pointing out here that BOTH Astrology And Politics are ruled by the planet Uranus. Even the Huffington Post is running a piece called huffpollstrology. The recent news about British Intelligence using Astrology has been all over the wires for over a week. Here’s an excerpt from the ABC article:
“It seems former US President Ronald Reagan wasn’t the first to be accused of using astrology to make key foreign policy decisions.”
My point here is that the Astrologers Ronald Reagan (mostly Nancy actually) used - Jean Dixon among others, sure seemed to work for him. He DID have a brilliant political career - there is really no arguing with this point. Clearly some Astrology is better than others (for bad Astrology, just look at huffpollstrology). And one top point to remember is that a Horoscope in the local paper can do very little (if anything) to help you plan for your life.
On the other hand ABC is very lacking in their reporting on this subject. The reporter Stephanie Kennedy obviously didn’t do her research here. She has neglected to mention (or notice) that the forefathers of our country used Astrology to choose it’s July 4th Birthday. Benjamin Franklin was a master Astrologer, one who used Declinations (a technique I also use) to help choose that date for the creation of America. You will have to search long and hard to find any current Astrologers who have any idea how to use Declinations. And yet they are at least as powerful as the usual Astrology Charts.
“Astrology is one of the most ancient sciences, held in high esteem of old, by the wise and great. Formerly no prince would make war or peace, nor any general fight a battle, in short no important affair was undertaken without first consulting an astrologer.” Click here to see this quote in it’s original context.
Benjamin Franklin, 1751
Benjamin Franklin was also the publisher of a periodical called ‘The Farmer’s Almanac” which points out the best Astrological time for planting crops. And yet, here in the US we have consistently gone away from the timeless wisdom of planting with the flow, instead we genetically engineer our foods so that they have little if any nutrition left and may no longer even be good for us.
Not only that, but many of the dates used in our electoral process were chosen because they would always be energetically supportive of the USA’s best interests and well-being. This has since been messed with by a few of our more barbaric administrations. (Did they know they were messing with a good thing?). Certainly our current economic and housing crisis’ are good evidence that the great prosperity and abundance we experienced all through the 80’s and 90’s is indeed very messed up.
In the end what I can offer is that you begin to Understand and learn the real Secret to how the Universe works. I don’t mean the information that was presented in the Book/Movie. I mean the REAL secrets of the universe. If you try and use the ideas in the movie without a real understanding of them you are more likely than not to have them BACKFIRE on you. These principles have been used throughout time by those who understand them for the purpose of helping humanity or for the purpose of controlling and enslaving humanity - depending on who was in power. It is your right to understand and use the power of Astrology and the principles of the Universe. Otherwise, those in the know can and will use this knowledge against you.
Just based on the Void Moon in his candidacy announcement on Feb 10, 07 at 10am, it’s hard to imagine Obama winning. The Void Moon is indeed a formidable force. Have any of YOU tried to make anything stick that you did on a Void Moon? It’s nearly impossible for most people to do. (For clarification on this check my blog post: ) Basically what I am saying here is that the Void is working against Obama’s candidacy. HOWEVER, the Void still has an impact on the world. That impact is to DEEPEN THE DISCUSSION, make people reflect on what is important and do some inner emotional and spiritual housekeeping. Always a good thing in my book.
Right now, as all this presidential prediction discussion is flying around I see so many Astrologers forget to make note of the current RETROGRADE MERCURY and the current RETROGRADE SATURN. Both of which indicate upcoming changes in trend and overall direction. Mercury goes direct on Feb 19th - which means all of the current discussion will be revised (endlessly) until Early March. Saturn changes direction in May indicating a major change in our collective approach to authority figures, who we take seriously and why, as well as our understanding of the RULES OF ENGAGEMENT.
So many Astrologers also seem to forget that we have another Eclipse season before candidates are announced formally (and it is an *ss kicker too!) The next set of Eclipses take place in August. Get ready for a serious game of hardball. As I keep saying, it ‘aint over yet, and before it ends the plot (and drama) WILL THICKEN.
