Another question, here it is:

Dear Denise, my fiance frequently visits your site and passes on very interesting information to me and has suggested I seek some information into an interesting aspect of myself that I discovered this past week….My friend has a solar powered 110 volt electric fence to protect his garden. One of our friends accidentally touched it and got a decent little shock a which turned us all into curious adolescents.

We dared each other and ourselves to touch it, and everyone got a good shock but me.  I could and can, as I just did it again tonight, grab the fence and hold it with almost no sensation at all except feeling a slight pulse of it on my fingers when I grip it.

One of the kickers, is that my friends touched me to see if I was really gripping the fence and attached to the current and it knocked them to their knees several times each and gave me a slightly greater pulse of electricity through my body.  We sat around in amazement the rest of the night trying to figure out what was going on and I grabbed, held, and swayed the activated fence around numerous times throughout the night with no affect on me.

I went back tonight to see if the other night was some wild unexplainable anomaly, really expecting to get shocked, and again it had no affect on me and actually even less as I didn’t even feel the pulse on my fingers or palm. my friends and I are bewildered. Just wondering if you have any idea why/what this might be?  Knowing that you have some experience with unexplained phenomena I thought you might be a good person to ask.

Hey there,

As I suspected you have some neurological stuff. You are literally wired differently. (I actually have this weird thing about watches and those magnetic drawing toys – watches die after a week of wear, and I can draw with just my finger, I attributed this to being an alien or more likely a weird form of neurological problem which I do know empirically, I have).

You actually have a lot of planets in Libra, and Aquarius, and the ruler of your chart Jupiter is in the sign of Aquarius, plus you have Gemini conjunct your South Node in Gemini. You have a loose grand air trine. On the cusp of your 6th house (health) you have Gemini and that is ruled by Mercury, your Mercury is conjunct your Sun. You have Moon and Uranus conjunct in Libra and Jupiter and Venus in Aquarius.  Saturn is in Gemini conjunct your descendant and South Node. You also have Pluto conjunct your part of Fortune in Libra in your 9th house.

Interestingly the only earth you have (you have absolutely no water in your chart – I have absolutely no fire) and other than your Sun conjunct Mercury in Capricorn (which are so close to the end of the sign, almost in Aquarius – an air sign) and Mars at an early degree of Taurus, you have very little earth. You are basically a human lightening rod with so much air and fire. The earth seems to act like a small electrical ground. You are a human conduit, like a jumble of wires and signals, you have this intensely air based chart despite being a Capricorn.

OK, so, you are an extremely heady guy, super bright and wired differently than most. I also think you have a gift for some forms of psychic ability, especially premonitions and telepathy, as I have found people with a lot air in their charts receive ideas through the ether in unusual ways. You may even think they are your original ideas when you are tapping into something bigger than you. If you meditate or try to do so (it won’t be easy for you with so much stuff rumbling through your brain at a thousand miles a second – what my Western Esoteric teacher called “monkey chatter”) you can actually learn to spot those wild beasts thundering through the jungle of your mind – meaning you can actually learn to tell what’s emanating from you and what you are receiving, but this will take practice, patience and most likely involve keeping a journal.

Once you learn to identify thoughts that are not coming from you, but rather those that you are receiving you can learn to trace them (like an intuitive blood hound) and later you will be able to tap directly into the Over-Soul or Collective Unconscious, and come up with the next logic step in technology, which could lead to either inventing something or since you have Saturn in Gemini on your descendant writing a best-selling book – because you will be tapped in. Whatever way you manifest being tapped in, it is a skill that is hugely helpful in all fields and careers. Just use your power for good and not evil!

Perhaps you’ve felt like an extraterrestrial. Perhaps you are eccentric, unusual or what some would say kind of weird, but I mean that in the loveliest of ways. You are very, kind, compassionate, fair and humanitarian.  Like I said you are literally wired different from other people, but do me a favor don’t push your luck and keep putting your hand on the electric fence! It will eventually do damage to you, especially with Mercury ruling your 6th house – you have to be careful of neurological problems, problems with your arms, lungs and mind. Also right now Mercury is retrograde and you might have a different result that isn’t very pleasant as unexpected things happen when Mercury is retrograde and now that you’ve established this as your normal it might reverse itself. Another possibility is that you started doing this when Mercury was retrograde and the ability might not be there when it goes direct again. Mercury went retrograde around the 20th of August. So be careful when Mercury goes direct, just in case your internal poles have shifted.

Hope this answers your question for now! And by all means if you do, do it again, you should charge people to see it! And also put it on U-tube. I’d like to see it. Let us know what happens.

Best to you,

Denise

My New Computer Is On It’s Way!

Long story short, my old laptop died and I had to order another one. I thought it would be here by today but it is sadly not. I must admit I’m having withdrawals. I have stolen my husband’s computer while he’s out running errands. According to the tracking status it will be here on the 21st of April. 

So again if you want a reading or are trying to contact me, I’ll get back to you next week and we will schedule something then. 

So sorry for the inconvenience. I think it’s something in my chart as all the electronics in my home have been freaking out. Our DVD player turned on full blast at 2 in the morning. My husband nearly had a heart attack, poor guy. You’d think after being married to a freak like me for 20 years he’d be used to it. But he still gets scared when weird stuff happens (and it happens a lot). He got up and checked the house several times just to make sure no one had snuck in and hit the DVD player remote? I guess. Luckily this sort of thing doesn’t bother me, hasn’t since I was a kid and made peace with it. It’s just how it will always be, no use getting worked up over it.

Hope everyone has a great weekend. I will try to post. I’m so annoyed at the “tea baggers” don’t they use google? Really, you’d think they would have checked that before they flew their freak flag. I mean it’s almost too perfect. Sucking the proverbial balls of the wealthy, I guess that’s what it was about. Do you think the people at FOX knew this and thought it would be funny to humiliate the “peasants,” who do their bidding? Hmm, probably. It seems like some weird passive aggressive humiliation toward their minions. I mean, seriously, they had to know the slang, right? Someone at FOX news had to know. Or do all of them have their heads so far up their own butts that they were truly innocent of the reference? I think not. 

I feel bad for all those people who actually buy into the FOX news script. Clearly FOX news keeps moving the goal post so the Republicans can win at any cost no matter how much they damage the people they are using to do their dirty work. And those who actually believe in the paranoid, warped view of reality that they peddle are not bad or stupid people, they’ve just been seriously misguided. It’s my observation that FOX appeals to an older rural demographic, people who are often isolated and fearful (at least this is the demo in my husband’s family) they are genuinely good people, but their minds have been so inundated with BS for so long they don’t have any clear reference point to judge reality on.

It’s like calling white black for all of ones life and then expecting those people who believe black is white to look at a swatch of white paint and call it for what it is. Impossible.

I’ll go more into some observations when I have a chance. My husband is home and needs his computer back.

Best wishes and many blessings to all you good people,

Denise

Answering Readers (a little) & Economic Warning

Hey everyone,

I don’t want to freak everyone out, but I wanted to warn everyone I’m feeling the other end of that hit in the market coming soon, in the next 6 weeks. Sort of like the next wave in the Tsunami about to hit the shore. I had looked at charts when I felt the first one (about 3 weeks before the -777 market  crash) and from the looks of it, it seemed likely some major stuff was going to hit the fan in December, the stuff about Bernie Madeoff came out then, and didn’t help, but the timing was off in the chart. Hence I’ve concluded that the chart I have for the market is not exact. So I’m going with my intuition which is usually more accurate anyway.

I’m feeling it coming. It’s going to get scary bad. We are about to hit bottom, the below 6000 points thing mentioned early on this blog. So try not to freak out, it will get better. It has to get super extreme, this is part of the correction. Things will turn around, but there’s about to be major panic for many. We are already in a free fall so for many of us who are not in the market and have started adjusting our lives this next hit won’t feel as dramatic at first. We will feel the punch a little later. 

As for President Barack Obama he is doing everything possible in his power and it is sickening that the Republicans are more interested in winning the game according to their party rules then they are in all of us winning. More has to be done to restructure the financial industry and our economy as I have said in earlier posts, and I think we are headed toward another near melt down and some kind of other government intervention via another bill which will become a huge deal as the economy will take another giant hit here. 

Hold on to your seats its going to be bumpy, but it will turn around.

For those who have argued against the fusion of a strong social net and capitalism (an argument you will hear in coming weeks more vehemently thrown out there as the richest 1 percent try to pursued us that they really their money will trickle down eventually) let me say that the wealthiest countries in the world with the highest standard of living are countries which have embraced mindful capitalism and a society where the standard is the working middle class, something we used to have in this country. As the metaphor goes if one person keeps winning all the cash on the table and everyone else runs out trying to stay in the game, then the game is over when the guy “wins.”

However if there were always cash for people to play with then no matter how much that one guy wins, he will just keep winning, and we will all win because we are able to keep money flowing. When a handful of people control all the resources we all loose, including the dumb people who greedily want to have all the resources. However, these people don’t get that they are losing more by holding onto this old model because they need to have things clearly defined in winning and losing rather than the idea of the economy and life being a process, a continual flow like a river rather than a guy running a marathon.

The mentality of this greedy winners vs. losers mentality is a Reagan era legacy that I’m sure has roots back to the B rated cowboy movies he used to be in. In truth life is not about winners and losers it’s actually about being in the flow, giving, learning, experiencing. It isn’t about being better than everyone else. But try telling those guys on Wall Street who were complaining about home owners getting help instead of the help they gladly accepted from George W. & our government to stay flying in their private leer jets when they were supposed to be using that money to bail out their companies.

And to answer Sinead’s question below. I was planning on this being the end of the contest. So I’m going to go through the posts and pick some winners which I will announce in the next couple of weeks. I may wait to post a picture though, for my own weird reasons. I will eventually post a picture but I have my reasons which someday, I’ll explain, maybe.

And by the way, everyone who participated got something right! I think that’s pretty remarkable. It just goes to prove that there is something to all of this nuttiness. And also I wanted to pass on some interesting stuff. I’m not sure how many people are familiar with the Myers-Briggs personality indicator (which is based on some of Jung’s theories) or on the ancient early psychological system called the enneagram but for those of you who are interested in learning more about yourself here are some interesting links.

It is a fascinating system and if you are interested in learning more about yourself I highly recommend taking the Myers-Briggs test. Here’s a place to take the Myers-Briggs test for free with some info on the types:
http://www.humanmetrics.com/cgi-win/JTypes2.asp

And here’s a free Enneagram test. Also very fascinating:

http://www.eclecticenergies.com/enneagram/test.php
 

I’d love to get people to take the tests and then do a survey and see what the breakdown of people is according to their type. Is there a type specifically wired toward interest in metaphysics or is it everyone in different ways? Hmm, perhaps we can find out!

Best wishes and many blessings to all you good people,

Denise

P.S. Below is Sinead’s question.

Hey denise!     I know this has nothing to do with the above post, but i can’t find the birthday predictions on what you look like. Did the contest end? I already predicted but I wanted to see who was the most accurate? Thanks Sinead

Answering Readers Questions…

I’d just like to thank all of you out there who have posted encouraging and kind words. Also I want to thank all of you for your hope and good energy, and your belief that we can get through this troubling time, and make something better of our world. Your faith and hope will be contagious, and help our country, and our world get back on track. It is so important that good and kind people continue to believe in their fellow man even in the face of ignorance.

We are all here to learn and those among us who open our heart, and show kindness teach love and point others (and ourselves) toward the path of light with even the smallest act of kindness.

More questions from readers:

The first from Hope and a Plan:

Hopeandaplan

Hey Denise, we all really appreciate your taking the time to share your insights and compassion. My quick question is during the last depression the US had 25% unemployment. I read that contributed to the vicious economic cycle. Will the US experience 25% unemployment in the next couple of years? Thanks. Best to you.

I asked about that number, the tarot said:  No. 

I asked if we would experience 15% it said: No

I asked if it would be about 30% at its worst point: Yes.

But my feeling is that this will be a very swift kick of in the butt, and be terrible of course, but turn around much faster then it did during the 30s. Meaning I feel the restructuring of the global economy will happen over the next couple of years, and at the worst of our downward swing it’s going to be very bleak, but will turn around pretty quickly, within a few years, and be out of that range and headed back to a healthy place.

Bottom line is my feeling is: the worst of this will last a few years, but by the end of the first Obama administration, it will be turning around, and we’ll see things getting back on track. This is going to be very tough for him. I couldn’t think of a worse time to be president then now! But if there was ever anyone up to the task it would be him. We are going to need his passionate hope and belief in the goodness of the people, besides a great plan to save this sinking ship. But we can and will do it.

The next question comes from Grace:

grace43

Thank you for your insight. Your intitution is running on the exact same tract as mine. I see a period of finicial depression ahead, but also a period of hope. I see what I term as the New Reniassance. I see majors advances in the arts and sciences. I am not sure if this is intitution or just my major in American history of the 1930s when there was certainlly great advancements in the arts, music, and literature. It is definitely an “interesting” time to be alive.

My great hope is that we will not see massive teen homelessness like they did in the 30s. Hopefully, we have in place social services for teens in crisis. I’m a mother. I can’t help but worry about the kids. How do you think things will go for the children during these hard times?

Thank you.

Hi Grace,

I worry about them, too. I’m also a mother. But even before I was one, I worried about kids. They are so vulnerable and so important to the future of our world. One worries that being exposed to the kind of traumatic events that will unfold over the next few years and beyond (as we get back on our feet) will adversely effect them.

But there is something very interesting about the children born over the last 20 years, and currently being born. They have so many outer planets in winter signs — meaning they are very old souls. Of course, just because they are old souls doesn’t mean there won’t be those among them who bring a lot of bad karma and negativity with them, but since the late 1980s and into the 1990s when there was a rare conjunction of Uranus and Neptune in Capricorn there has been a shift of energy taking place on our planet.

I believe we are starting to see the effect of this in the group of young people who are now taking great interest in politics (this is of course not to say there hasn’t always been great old souls coming through, I’m just talking sheer numbers of them since this period). I’ve been saying for a long time, that these young people would be very idealistic and spiritual, but not necessarily in a conventional sense, meaning not necessarily religious. They will also be very artistic and have a love for the unique and original. They will contribute a lot to innovation especially in the arts and those born a bit later in the sciences.

Now that Pluto is going from Sagittarius into Capricorn and Uranus has been in Pisces and Neptune in Aquarius, we will see the babies born now turn out to be very old, and unusual souls. On the whole they will be more sensitive and intelligent then previous generations. I believe we will see an evolutionary leap in our species from those children born from the period of the late 1980s on until those born until 2011. But when Uranus goes into Aries younger souls will begin incarnating in greater number again. Not that younger souls are bad they are just newer on the road. Of course they can also be amazingly pure, great people with many gifts and lots of love to give.

We saw a bit of this leap among people born in the 1960s when Uranus was conjunct with Pluto in Virgo, an aspect that happens once every 144 years. And in this case it was in Virgo so times that by 12, and you get an aspect in sign that only happens approximately once every 18,000 years. This was why there was such an uprising of liberal views and a mini-revolution/social revolution going on at the time. This was a window of intense learning and idealism which is embedded in those born during that time. Ironically, there were less people born during this period then any other on earth living today. Meaning this generation is the smallest group on the planet, so their impact has been small in society (Obama is on the front end of this conjunction, but it’s out of sign) and their voices often silenced because they don’t have big numbers. But this first 60s group paved a course and with this new influx of similar types, starting from people in their early twenties to babies right now, we will see some major shifts in the collective unconscious over our lifetime. This is a very good thing.

Now back to your question, I asked the cards if we would see massive teen homelessness:

The answer: Yes.

But, this will change the social services we have in this country for kids and teenagers for the better. It’s strange, but all the cards that come up for this are basically positive which makes me think that there will be opportunities for many of these kids they wouldn’t have had under their previous situations, such as the potential for a college education and a change in their fate for the better. Some or most would have been in dire situations with abuse and/or extreme poverty they would have had to endure, but with the revision of the social system they will find new hope and opportunity awaiting them.

It’s odd. I’m not saying they won’t have a hard time, but most of these kids will have come from families who were abusive or so troubled they would not have gotten their needs met. And because the public will be more aware of these kids they will actually get more help then they normally would. And lets face it when everything is rosy most people don’t think about anything, they kind of check out. Our current crisis is going to make us rethink how we do just about everything, and it will engender much needed compassion in our society.

Gwen Merrick

Dear Denise,

Thank you for the insight you are bringing to so many during these extrordinary times. I have a political question with reference to New York City Mayor Bloomberg who recently strong-armed the City Council in voting to change the term limits which the people of NYC voted twice against through his backroom politics. He truly believes he is the only one to deal with this financial disaster which originated here (what extreme arrogance). Do you see him winning the Mayor race next year and will the people of NY rise up against this non-democratic vote. I am deeply concerned about this as a small business owner knowing that the decisions he makes are only made to enhance the wealthy and create more burdens for the working class.

Thank you again.
Gwen

Hi Gwen. Let’s ask the cards: Will Mayor Bloomberg win the next mayoral election?

OK, when asking this question 5 cards literally fell out of the deck. I always take that to have great meaning. They were all reversed so I would say, no. He isn’t going to win the next election. And let’s see why:

He’s got a bad record and people remember this. He’s not well liked. He’s pissed off (For lack of a better word) a lot of small business owners and made it difficult to start new businesses as well as business partnerships, weakening the overall economy. But I actually get the feeling he’s made a lot of lawyers angry. This I’m just hearing. I feel there maybe a movement to overturn what he’s strong armed. He’s got some serious enemies. Also he has pissed away a lot of opportunity for New Yorkers, how I’m not sure, I’m feeling he’s grid locked the system and made New York more unappealing for not just small businesses, but tourists, multi-national global companies and has (in a way) isolated the city. He’s also very arrogant and out of touch with what the people really think and feel about him, which is, most people don’t like him. He does however have strong support from certain giant well established institutions and institutional corporations. This is perhaps where he gets his false sense of huberis. 

I’m getting a very strong no. He isn’t going to win. And I do feel the law he strong armed will be repealed by a group of lawyers who will sue to get it overturned.

Another question this time from Tyrone:

Tyrone Solee

Hi Denise, can I ask what do you think will happen to the Philippine Stock Exchange? And to the Philippine Economy?

Hi Tyrone,

That’s a big question. I’m going to see if I can find a chart on the Philippine Stock Exchange. I found the inception date and figured the trading began at 9:00 AM so I ran it for that time. If you know what time it starts let me know in a post so I can rectify the chart. Here is the chart:

So here we see that the Sun is at 01 degree Capricorn. This is the same degree as the Dow’s ascendant. I’m seeing this 1 degree Capricorn in so many financial charts it’s making me wonder if that degree has some special significance especially to markets. Anyway, it’s in the 11th house and the Sun rules the 7th, meaning it will take a big hit because it’s friend (us) and partner (us) is going to get punched. It will also start freaking out in late December. I haven’t been paying attention to it, but I’m sure there have already been signs, and problems as this aspect gets tighter.

Now the bigger problems are going to come down the line — it may even dissolve and be re-invented or absorbed by another market, rumblings of this will start in January 2014, but it may not happen until later when Pluto hits Uranus and then all of a sudden it will go bye-bye. That will be a few years later in January of 2017. This could be part of the global market change I’ve been talking about, perhaps the Philippines will transform around that time. But I’d say from December of this year until November of 2009 this market will be very volatile and you might want to stay away until it settles down. Hope that helped.

The next question is from Joe:

Joe Mayer

The gold company Yamana Gold
Symbol (AUY)
will it rise back to the 15 to 20 mark? 

I asked the tarot will it rise back to the 15-20 mark in the next 3 months.

The answer: Yes. 

So keep watch and take advantage of it! 

Best wishes to everyone, blessings and good luck.

Comparison chart of FDR and Barack Obama

A friend told me there has been comparison made between Obama and FDR. Let’s see how this stacks up against their astrology. In FDR’s case we don’t have his time of birth, but I’ve done a solar chart which will give us a pretty good comparison to Obama except for the placement of planets in FDR’s houses.

Both have a Sun Mercury conjunction giving them intelligence, diplomacy and understanding of financial matters, close ties to women, and good oratory abilities. Both have a planet at 1 degree Cancer in FDR’s case it’s his moon and in Obama’s case his Venus. In the chart of the US Constitution this is a critical point as it is the mid-point between the US’s Mars and south node in the 5th house of speculation (also ruling the stock market). They understand crisis well and FDR responded emotionally (some would say his wife did, which would make sense as the moon is in the 5th and would indicate her) and Obama understands it fiscally and diplomatically — a more cool approach, but solid. Both had and have great passion when it comes to domestic issues especially in regards to the 5th house — stock market.

Barack’s point of fortune is on the US Constitution’s Moon, giving good luck when we need it most in foreign affairs (Sag rules the foreign) and in the 10th which is the career or industry of the nation. FDR had his North node there and it also gave us luck and a vision of how to solve future problems via government oversight and regulations which the Republicans have widdled away at ever since. As a side, we are now seeing the effects of deregulation and non regulation in the case of China — it doesn’t work, never has. It’s akin to putting the fox in charge of the hen house.

FDR  had a stellium in Taurus trining the US’s stellium in Virgo. Barack has conjunctions to this stellium, both good in this instance. Barack’s rising conjuncts FDR’s Sun and reflects the same humanitarian urges FDR showed during the Great Depression.

They definitely have major differences as well. FDR had a lot of air and earth in his chart making him even cooler than Obama, who would come at this crisis with tremendous passion and dedication to solving it, not unlike FDR, but the style would be different. FDR came at it with the same resolve, but in a more plodding manner.

FDR had Neptune in Taurus close to the same degree Obama’s opposite Neptune in Scorpio, again the see-saw, similar in a way. Obama however is more spiritual, FDR more pragmatic. I wouldn’t be surprised to find that FDR was completely secular. Obama looks for the hidden and has a genuine interest in the spiritual.

Barack has Saturn in Capricorn opposite the US Constitution’s Uranus, helping to stabilize unseen, out of the blue lightning strikes. This also gives him tremendous ability to foresee potential problems before they happen. He may not realize it, but his intuition about the state of the Union is right on. Barack has both his Sun and Mercury trining the US Constitution’s Moon, again helping to stabilize the country and sooth the emotional roller coaster we’re feeling. FDR had his Sun and Venus sextiling the US Constitution’s Moon again creating the opportunity to do the same, but not with as much punch as Obama’s. 

While the two are not the same, having very different personalities, both their charts give luck, stabilization and confidence to the US’s chart. I’m not saying Obama is magic and all our problems will dissolve if (and hopefully for our sake when) he becomes president, but he will significantly ease our upcoming difficulties and be a great president. It may take a while for him to unravel this mess, but he will be able to get us back on track and the longer he stays in office the more he’ll be able to dig us out of the rabbit hole. 

There are definite parallels between these two men. Both great in a crisis with tremendous aspects to the US chart.

The Stock Market Crash of 1929, Now and Future Crash

In the 1929 stock market crash Pluto was exactly conjuncting the Dow’s 12th house of loss. This sensitive point will be hit by Mars in late December of this year. That alone won’t do it as Mars is a personal planet, but Saturn will be making an applying square at this time and Mars will set it off. Pluto will also be moving from the 12th over the 1st house. This will be a major death and rebirth of the market — MAJOR CHANGES. Venus will be making a trine to Neptune at the time (those who trust their intuition will do OK) but it will also be inconjuncting (the Dow’s ruler) Saturn, and Mars (the two malifics). Inconjunctions cause loss or separation (like from your money) and of course Neptune rules loss. 

The stock market crash of 1929 had transiting Pluto conjuncting Uranus in the 7th and making an opposition to the first house; it’s similar to the upcoming transits we’ve only begun to taste. I could go on and on about the similarities between now and then, there are many, but really the main point is to protect yourself. We, the tax payers, are already going to bail out wall street, but you can bet, you the individual share holder won’t be as fortunate. Take care of yourself and get out when you feel the timing is right — just do it before mid-December of this year to be safe.

Good Luck and Best Wishes to all.

WWIII — Why this Election is so Important

I’ve had a feeling for a while that we are on the verge of a world war. Now with Russia invading Georgia and Condoleezza Rice stirring the hornets nest and pissing Putin off, I know my feelings are justified. So I asked the tarot: If John McCain where to win the Presidency would we find ourselves in a world war?

The answer: An emphatic YES.

Among the cards that came up was the Devil and the Tower, the two worst cards in the deck. Right before 9/11 every reading I did had the Tower card coming up, even though it appeared to have no personal relationship to the people I was reading. I had dreams of being in a sky scrapper that was falling down. I wasn’t sure what it all meant. But the night before 9/11 I had a horrible feeling of impending disaster and couldn’t sleep. I stayed up all night and turned the TV news on in the morning (something I never do) and heard that an airplane had just crashed into the trade center. At the time the newscasters thought it was an accident, not me. I knew it was an attack. I called everyone I knew (waking most of them up). And then came the next one, as I watched in horror. While the buildings burned I told my mother, “They are going to fall down.” She didn’t believe me, of course we watched in horror as my prediction came true.

Let me just make this clear. WE ARE ON THE PATH TO ANOTHER WORLD WAR, IT CAN BE AVERTED, but if John McCain becomes President (or I should say Sarah Palin) we will end up in the unthinkable. This is a major warning.

WARNING!!! It’s not just the economy that will die.

I don’t like being Cassandra, but I often am.

Please think about this, meditate on what I am putting out there, ask your own inner voice, your own intuition — let it be your guide. I think you’ll see that what I’m seeing is accurate.

I pray we don’t choose that path.

Race in the race to the white house…

Hopefully this rational argument will help those on the fence think about the issue of Obama’s race a little differently.

Suppose your child was critically ill with a rare disease and your only hope was a specialist who happened to be African American. Would you let your child die because of prejudice or would you let the most qualified doctor treat your kid? 

Seriously folks a McCain administration would plummet us into the worst world wide Depression in history, not to mention the possibility of WW3. I’ll post about this later. I’m going to deconstruct the chart of Russia, Georgia and the conflict there as well as what’s going on in Iraq and the US. Look for that in coming posts. I can say this, before we went to war in Iraq I had a very bad feeling (as did most of the population) not just about the conflict in the middle-east but its potential to instigate a world war. The tarot cards confirmed my worst fears. At the time I didn’t know exactly how this would unfold but it’s becoming clearer now. With the US military stretched to its limits in 2 simultaneous wars, we can’t mind the world stage. Russia also has made the same argument about invading Georgia as we made about invading Iraq. But I’ll save all this for a later post…

For now, vote, pray and talk to anyone who will listen. We are at a major turning point. This election is crucial to the well being of all of us. Not just fiscally but in ways unimaginable to most.

John McCain vs. Barack Obama on Foreign Affairs

Looking at their charts it is clear that John MCCain is much more likely to get us into another war — he is hawkish by nature. Obama is more likely to use diplomacy to avert crisis — his excellent understanding of other cultures and his natural oratory abilities give him a distinct advantage in averting further conflicts and with what is going on in Georgia vs. Russia we need diplomacy. Do we really want a war with Russia when our military is already stretched to its limits?

Just because someone served in the military does not mean they have the capacity to run it. McCain was a soldier not a strategist, by this logic someone who works behind the counter of a bakery would be well equipped to oversee the FDA. Granted the person working behind the counter would learn something about the food industry but that alone is not enough experience to even run their own bakery. In order to do that the person would have to have good business acumen, an understanding of the market in their area and management skills.

The fact remains that Obama’s chart shows greater understanding of foreign affairs and diplomacy. He knows how to reason with people, and can put himself in other people’s shoes, unlike McCain.

Barack Obama vs. Abraham Lincoln

Their career paths have been compared, and almost parallel in their meteoric rise from being state legislators to Presidents (in Obama’s case potential president). But what do their charts say. Are they similar? And if so how? Let’s take a look at the man who helped start the Republican party and the current lead Democrat.

 

 Despite the unknown time of Lincoln’s actual birth we can still compare the basics so here goes:

Although Lincoln was an Aquarian he had a lot of water in his chart, specifically Pisces which gave him great compassion for the down trodden. Pisces is opposite of Virgo and the two have a lot in common, as Leo is opposite of Aquarius. Again both signs share similarities, this is because if you have the sun in Leo like Barack Obama your earth is in Aquarius, meaning the earth is actually traveling through the constellation of Aquarius. So in a sense opposites are not really opposites in astrology but rather two sides of a see-saw.

WIth so his sun and moon in Aquarius Lincoln definitely thought outside the box and was ruled by his principles but unlike Sarah Palin who is utterly lacking in compassionate or sensitivity in her chart, Lincoln had oodles of it. He was a visionary, literally and extremely intuitive, eccentric, odd looking as we know and a revolutionary for the greater good. His chart is heavy on trines like Barack’s making it easy to communicate, rise to the head of the class and understand others on a very gut level, very similar to Barack Obama’s abilities. Barack shows great aptitude for communication and shows intellectual brilliance in his chart, Lincoln shows immense genius with Uranus making a trine to his mercury both in water signs he was probably spooky (if you knew him personally) in his ability to read things others couldn’t see and size up situations in a glance. His chart is the stuff of legends. He also had Mars in Libra trining his sun, making fairness a huge issue for him much like Obama. The civil war probably pained Lincoln greatly on a personal level as he wasn’t a hawk but would have preferred to work things out through debate, alas this was not his fate. Saturn and Neptune conjunct in Sagittarius gave him charisma and uncannily good luck in his career. But it also gave him trouble as evidenced by his assassination (square to Mercury with Neptune there — Neptune bringing loss.) This was not helped by his Uranus, ruler of his sun and moon in Scorpio (can mean sudden death) square his moon. His Venus inconjunct Uranus also brought turmoil to his relationships with women and his love life which he probably didn’t see until he was smack in the middle of it and it was too late to bail out.

Obama’s chart is more stable, grounded and service oriented rather than sacrifice oriented like Lincoln’s but there are some real similarities between these two men. Obama however is a more dramatic orator, (supposedly Lincoln had a strange high pitched voice and of course Obama has a deep melidious one) and his passion is more on a gut level than Lincoln’s which was more intellectual in nature. Neither are/or where hawkish in their world view but rather keen to diplomacy first. Obama is more of a fighter with so much Leo in his chart, some would say a bit more bombastic but also much warmer. It’s doubtful that a man like Lincoln could be president during our age of TV and the internet, as his looks and personality would have been very eccentric and off putting at close inspection. Obama on the other hand has the charm and charisma needed to win the office in contemporary culture with good looks and personality playing such a key role in elections. 

Obama is about as close to the likes of Lincoln as we could concievably see in contemporary America. There are some real parallels not just in their careers but in their personalities. Obama’s main focus is the working person however, and of course Lincoln’s was a bigger more pervasive assumption that he tackled. Lincoln’s chart reflects his ability to truly shake up the statis quo, Obama’s is not really set up like that, it is focused primarily on serving the everyday American trying to get by and the economy which if Obama wins we’ll be able to dig ourselves out of the rabbit hole. If not, if McCain wins look for a major global Depression where the rich get richer and less and less fit into that one percent. Our nation will look like a bad day in Tijuana. We will see the end of the middle class if McCain wins at least until someone else takes the reigns but by then it maybe too late. 

MAKE SURE TO VOTE NOVEMBER 2.
