I’ve spent the evening at my desk, taking apart the chart of the Boston Marathon bombing, preparing for writing Friday’s lead article in the member edition. The chart for the incident is an astonishing chart, in how it describes just what’s happening.
It’s a chart with a prominent, as in very prominent, Neptune (which I describe in detail in the new Planet Waves FM). That’s about looking into a fog, a delusion, a haze of confusion. This has been playing out all week. The situation in the news Wednesday was utter chaos — on the part of journalists and public officials.
The false report by CNN’s John King of the arrest of a suspect causing chaos in the news, an arrest in the ricin incidents, the cancellation of the press briefing in Boston.
The Senate was blocked by a Republican filibuster and did not get to vote on closing the background check loopholes; people will still be able to get around the federally mandated background check just by purchasing at gun shows or on the Internet. Notice the determination of Sandy Hook parents and Bostonians to persist, to persevere. Humans are survivors and we are adaptable. We need to tap into those traits right now.
Meanwhile, the day was capped off by an explosion near Waco, Texas and another in Oklahoma City — close to the anniversaries of the prior famous events in those towns…it’s been a weird and interesting day.
We’re being confronted by so much; so much that’s unpleasant; so much of what humanity and our culture have created for themselves, for us. While planets are busy changing signs from Aries to Taurus (Venus went first, to be followed by the Sun and Mars over the weekend), I think for now the planet to watch is Mercury, as it makes its conjunction to Uranus. This suggests we’re in for some additional surprises. You maybe thinking gee, thanks. I would rather stop the cosmos. However…as your astrologer I’m here to tell you…the wheels are still turning.
