Astrology Predictions, Currents, and Possibilities

May 2008, Robert of Mayflower Bookshop, Berkley, Michigan.

1) Spring is Here! Last days of April and first days of May good for long term love and investment. Venus/Saturn/Pluto all trine in earth signs. Good for new long term beginnings. Good for settling old affairs and setting in new long term plans. Good for pay back planning and long term investment. Good for paying off old karma. Good for starting new gardens and friendships of lasting value. Good for catching up to the present, making good, making sense, of the past. Values relating to what perseveres in time and has lasting value. This aspect may also indicate how many people are getting along with less money and resource, seeking happiness in the little things of life, the traditional values and simple joys of life. Wisdom from the past plans for the future. Meditation and Yoga is in.

2) Taurus in long term love and security. Virgo and Cap worried about such?!

Venus/Saturn/Pluto in Taurus/Virgo/Capricorn respectively make an interesting grand trine in earth signs. This is long-term strengthening for love and money for TAURUS SUN SIGNS. Virgo and Capricorn may find themselves more dependent on outer circumstances and other people more than wanted. Great aspect for working in the earth and fixing up the homestead. Great aspect for healing through massage, diet, yoga, meditation (as well as whatever else you’re doing). 

3) Saturn at 1 degree Virgo goes direct from retrograde. Look for continued concern and renewal of concern with all things relating to Virgo such as health care, medicare, hospital care, airplane fares and service, health and quality of kitchenware, elderly care, prison reform, and fairness to the under-privileged. Saturn in Virgo reveals that the next year or two will be concerned with health and worker care. Many people will be reconsidering the quality, or lack of quality, of their job.

4) Attention Capricorn, Taurus and Virgo ! Jupiter goes retrograde May 9th to early September giving the earth signs yet another chance for happiness and success when it comes to family, friends, money, job, career, calling, vocation, aims and goals. Jupiter is the santa claus of the zodiac. Jupiter’s dangerous side is in over-doing and going to extremes, gluttony and waste. The positive side is user-friendly social grace and sharing, community, and joyful partying, as well as joyful partings. Jupiter in Aquarius next year favors the Air Signs as well as the green eco-friendly.

5) Mars leaves Cancer and goes into the tropical sign of Leo. The good news is Mars leaving Cancer’s ‘argue-mental’, feisty, antagonistic fight then flight and hide-away. Mars in Leo influence brings the shiny sunny side out. Look for the return of the peacock pride and colorful, summery, creative colorful aristocratic ways. Here, everybody wants their moment of stage, light and sound. Cardinal Signs of Aries, Cancer, Libra and Capricorn will now not feel aggressive or defensive and can relax a bit. Leo, Sagittarius and Aries will feel more assertive and positive in conquering new ground. Aquarius be on guard and a little less reactive. Scorpio and Taurus need find the right balance between going with the flow and surrendering to the way it is, and pushing harder for what you want or need for self, from others. 

6) New Moon, May 5th, with Uranus Square DC Ascendant brings stormy weather, quake, major ups and downs in market, extremes in manic behavior. Sudden changes. Mutable signs affected the most; Pisces, Gemini, Virgo, Sagittarius.

Full Moon - May 19th puts Sun/Venus in Taurus squaring both Saturn in Virgo and Neptune in Aquarius, while Sun/Venus also trines Jupiter in Capricorn. The Full Moon for the second time in a month is in Scorpio (April’s full moon was in Scorpio too). Burn pure or burn out, meditate or vegetate. 

This is a good lusty spring full moon (and days following) loaded with Scorpionic Plutonian intrigue and fluctuations in the stock market, price of food/grains, and extremes in the weather with some parts of the country experiencing extreme wet cool weather, and other parts extremely hot.

With Pluto near the ascending sign of Washington DC Full Moon chart there is a sense of mourning, or perhaps funeral of famous person, giving somber mood. Pluto makes for increased need or sense of security, pressure to act or perform, and even paranoia. It often indicates big mergers, bankruptcies, and a sense of gloom and doom. On the positive note, it is a strong aspect for compassion, loving kindness, and the need for wisdom in one’s actions.  

7) With crazy aspects in the Middle East charts, look for May/June battle rattles and war drums with further concerns with Iran, Syria, North Korea, and more. 

Crazy Uranus aspects in many a political figure, including many a chart for the USA, may very well portend sudden events precipitating immediate action or reaction. May may prove to be a dangerous month for storm, earthquake, violence, and sudden loss or change of direction for many a prominent person. Lots of babies conceived this month is my prediction. 

May Flowers bring Squeezed Dollars at the Pump of Fame

9) Tom Cruise may have divorce aspects, but it won’t be until 2010 into 2011, when progressed Sun conjuncts natal Uranus, and transiting Pluto nears opposition to Sun (this aspect can make your secret weapon, your Venus, fall off scandalously). Uranus also enters the 7th House opposing Ascendent, notorious for divorce or partner having affair. With transiting Saturn conjunct his Ascendent at this 2010 time, it would seem she (Kate) leaves him, and he’s bummed down and out in Saturnian depression; or is it divine melancholy? Don’t worry, in another bit of time Uranus will trine Tom’s natal moon bringing healing and renewed vigor for the opposite sex. The secret to keep his marriage is to avoid all anger. Tom has a Mars squaring Uranus natally, notorious for anger as well as action hero dynamics. His Neptune square Venus natally makes him hot in love when inspired, otherwise missing in action or vacant. When inspired, he can do anything. When not inspired, nothing works.

10) Katie Holmes, Tom Cruise’s wife has her own astrological dyna-mania. With transiting Neptune opposing her Ascendent, she may not really quite know what’s going on, or even where Tom is all the time. This aspect may offer one a spiritual or platonic friend, but rarely anything real. Katie may also feel that Tom has let her down in his promises to her. With Uranus in Pisces coming in 2010 to Square her natal Sun (divorce aspect) as well as Saturn in Virgo squaring her Sun, the marriage may well be on the way to divorce. Pluto conjunct Katie’s Mars makes for much obsessive behavior from both sides. Pluto (secrecy) retrograde all summer going back within few degrees of her 26 degree Sun in Sagittarius reveals weird emotional problems, as well as the distinct possibility for either divorce or another baby, or both. Phew! Much gentle loving care and patient compassionate understanding is called for from both parties. With Katie’s Sun/Neptune conjunct, and her Moon/Jupiter conjunct, if I was Tom, I’d avoid all anger or jealousy or psycho drama, and keep Katie as a friend for life. Whether the marriage lasts or not.

11) See my last few Astrological Newsletters for review of the many events predicted for Presidential candidates, including Hillary’s new rise. Also for predictions as to Detroit’s notorious text sex message Mayor’s court case and media trial.

12) With Jennifer Aniston, transiting Uranus squares her natal Moon, thus her dating John Mayer is at best a flirtation and short-lived affair. At worst, she continues to have a roller-coaster ride in relationships. Off and On, Hot and Cold. With Pluto transit squaring her south node at the moment, she’s hot for something secret and deep. With Pluto coming in next few years to square her natal Uranus/Jupiter, Jennifer would be smart to stay independent and single. Let them chase her. Otherwise further loss and separations on the horizon. Her Libra Rising makes her think she needs a partner whether for good or bad. With Pluto going retrograde to square John Mayer’s natal Venus, look for John to feel rejected in love. Gosh, this may be what dooms both their relationships; they want what they can’t have.

13) Miley Cyrus now has transiting Saturn in Virgo (criticism) retrograde about to square her natal Sun in playful Sagittarius, keeping her in check and a bit diminished in size and grandeur for many. As midsummer comes, transiting Jupiter retrograde on her natal Neptune should balloon miss hanna montana back into giant size me up movie glamor again. Watch for the years 2012-13 with transiting Pluto conjunct her natal venus, and transiting Saturn conjunct her natal Moon, to either squash her youthful dreams or settle her down. Right now Hanna Montana is maturing her witch’s brew and melting imaginations (transiting Neptune square her natal Pluto).

14) Jimi Hendrix, though dead, has Jupiter going into his second house of money, and with the release of some secret sex video, he’s still making money. With Pluto just in his first house, it’s porn related and a bit negative. With critical Saturn in Virgo squaring his natal Sun, a negative shadow is cast upon poor Jimi. With Saturn coming to square his natal Venus in late July, we may see more unfavorable light thrown on this amazing rock star of the 60’s, who pioneered the guitar rhythm rock solo.

15) A quick look at Michigan’s Governor, Jennifer Granholm’s chart, reveals transiting Saturn in Virgo (intestines/HEALTH issues) conjunct her natal Pluto (serious), while transiting Pluto is conjunct her natal Saturn (takes time to heal and sense of insurmountable work and burdensome tasks slow to accomplish), shades of being weighed down with too many futuristic blocks and undigested pasts. Jennifer G. just had emergency surgery for bowl obstruction reported to be connected to complications from past car accident injury. I’d watch out for that political  ‘fudge’ and ‘fast food’. None-the-less, by November election time, transiting Jupiter will be conjunct the Gov.’s natal Moon portending many a good turn of events in health and success (this is good). By then, the Mayor’s text sex scandal will be out of her hands and the Michigan economy will be half back on track. Will Saturn/Pluto aspects sway JG to dream of retirement or back seat politics? Will Hillary Clinton Win and Jennifer go to Washington? Probably the latter.

16) END OF APRIL INTO MAY, SPIRITUAL MEETINGS AND ENCOUNTERS. With the North Node in Aquarius at midpoint between Jupiter in Capricorn and Uranus in Pisces, now quickly heading for conjunction with Neptune, look for May to be a wild ride of sudden fortune for some, misfortune for others. The Node brings in sudden unions and meetings of the mind and body. The Neptune factor makes it way high spiritual or just way high out of body. Expect strange weather around the states; mystical, watery, misty, almost metaphysical. On the other hand, Neptune can bring flooding, fires, weird mishaps and misfirings, crazy UFO and Angel sightings, ghosts and psychic phenomena. Neptune is an aspect where high spiritual and moral intention and purpose is called for; otherwise, one can feel let down by others. Neptune brings about high spiritual perceptions or dreams, however one may find it hard to manifest or realize the aims of these dreams. Neptune is ‘other-worldly’ events, crossings of the threshold (death) of prominent political or hollywood types, and even mass hysteria or collective dreaming. May’s North Node/Neptune aspect strongly influences the signs Aquarius, Leo, and then Taurus and Scorpio. Capricorn and Pisces feel the good vibe and electricity of this aspect. Libra and Gemini Sun Signs might just play and have fun through it. Where Neptune is involved, one can be inspired to great heights, followed by the hard work needed to incarnate such aspirations and inspired insights. Inflation is often followed by deflation. Certainly May will be a month with many acts of God, along with a sense of, “Its Nature’s Way of Telling You,” in a song.

Astrology and Metaphysical Insights for April ‘08
- by Robert of Mayflower Bookshop

1) A new Tibet? Dalai Lama Astrology - The Dalai Lama’s chart reveals Progressed Sun trine natal north node in seventh house, along with transiting Jupiter conjunct that same natal north node. Great time for his sharing spiritual teachings and attempting peaceful solutions to the Tibet dilemma. Progressed Moon trine natal north node in coming six months, within range now, all go to denote that the Dalai Lama is at his best moment for negotiating and conversing with China about the freedom of the Tibetan peoples to rule themselves. Jupiter transit bodes well for diplomatic, peaceful solutions from now into the first week of May, when Jupiter goes retrograde to return to node conjunction late November into December, when matters of negotiating a more peaceful solution with China may succeed. With transiting Mars on the Dalai Lama’s Sun, he is in a strong moment of decision making, as well as teaching, speaking, and sharing his spiritual wisdom and compassion. With Neptune transit so close to opposing his natal Venus, and Saturn transit coming to conjunct his natal Moon and Neptune in September and October, the Dalai Lama will have to be careful of Chinese smoke and mirrors, deceptions and delays, while Olympics are in play. September and October may also bring minor health concerns, or is it ‘spiritual retreat’ time? Pluto trine his natal Moon and Jupiter conjunct natal Saturn in 2010-12 may yet be the best timing and historical moment for a New Tibet.

2) CHINA STARS — With transiting Uranus opposing China’s natal Saturn recently, electrifying changes may be called for by the world, but China persists in its Saturnian, authoritative, non-democratic user unfriendly ways. Neptune transiting (putting on the good face) has been opposing China’s natal Pluto in recent years, signifying giant global economics and big money making, but at the cost of much pollution to their country, as well as making a new dichotomy of rich/poor. Oh, what money can do! Uranus now approaches an opposition to China’s natal Sun in 2010-12, while Saturn conjuncts natal Sun and Pluto squares it. This last set of aspects may reveal a much bigger concern in world economics and politics than the end of the Mayan Calendar. Saturn/Pluto/Uranus all transiting natal Sun will be a historically defining moment for China come 2010-12. Will China crystallize and harden in its authoritative (Saturn) totalitarian ways, becoming dictatorial and warring to the world not conceding to their will? Will Uranus bring new freedoms and a sense of democracy? Will Uranus bring incredible scientific invention and breakthroughs, or break downs? Will Pluto bring a renewed sense of ecology and love for the land, the earth; or will it bring ecological disaster and poverty? China may yet, at this time, experience their own form of the wild 60’s. Many changes are in store. At the moment, Mars in Cancer transits their Sun/Mercury/Neptune conjunction making for aggressive tactics and cold shoulders when it comes to handling Tibetan protesters. Pluto transit presently opposing natal Uranus (exact 2009-10) also adds to aggressive responses to anything or anyone perceived as threatening their authority. With the crazy intense aspects coming up in the next few years, one would think that China would want to be making more friends than enemies. Perhaps they will yet learn to share new freedoms and power decision-making with the rest of the world, starting with Tibetans.

3) Hillary Clinton’s chart continues to amaze and bemuse the best of astrologers, who now claim her time of birth to be off, and now corrected, giving minor change to her midheaven and progressed aspects. Transit wise, the first few days of May with Saturn retrograde going forward near square to her natal Jupiter makes it tough going. With Uranus conjunct her natal Moon later in May, times are thunderously changing. If she makes it through May without dropping out, she may yet prove herself to be a super woman heading for election. Uranus/Moon aspects usually bring about huge changes in one’s life and direction. Will Hillary surprise us by dropping out or by pushing ahead in the polls? Stay tuned for this most exciting month in the election.

4) Barack Obama’s chart in May doesn’t fair much better. Uranus transit opposes his Mars portending of sudden changes and upsets, along with the need for protection and increased security. Saturn retrograde to direct transit squares his Moon, while Pluto transit still lingers in opposition to his Venus natal. All this goes to say that both candidates seem shook up about each other and world events. Both candidates will be experiencing jolting challenges to their own future and fate. Perhaps this will be a determining time to unite in a positive vision of the future for the United States of America and for the World at large. Will one candidate drop out at this time? Will another candidate suddenly enter the contest? Or is it world problems and dilemmas that capture both candidates in shock, wonder, and awe? Let’s hope for ever more peaceful and creative times!

5) From Full Moon March 21st ’08 with Sun/Moon square Pluto to New Moon April 5th and Sunday April 6th with Venus Square Pluto (Pluto retrograde April 2nd), we are under some strong PLUTO energies. Pluto is the ruler of the underworld of greed, lust, attachment, psycho-drama, and all weird negative alien energies. All early degree CARDINAL signs and planets will be affected for good or ill (this means ‘bad funk’).
Those born the 19th to 24th of December, March, June, or September (or have major planets, ascending sign, or midheaven) beware and be warned, the bad love funk and ugly stick is coming. Avoid arguments and infighting with family, friends, or working relationships. This is an aspect to avoid jealousy and anger. Jealousy is ‘loving’ someone for who you want them to be and not for who they are. Be happy for other’s happiness and experiments in life. Anger is wanting to force another to see your way. Taking the law into your own hands and taking away another’s freedom. These aspects are also trying when it comes to money and security. One needs here to take a deep look into one’s many lifetimes and the whole of one’s life. One needs here to really deepen one’s perspective about what really matters to the whole of one’s life, to one’s spiritual soul, one’s inner qualities. Ask these questions. Do I believe in myself? Do I work to purify and strengthen myself? Do I have a job that is good for the world? Do I think and feel in a way that supports a healthy world? Do I feel connected to the world? Am I working, thinking, feeling too small? If I could be myself, what would I do?
Pluto aspects can deepen one’s relationships and commitments, making for experiences never to be forgotten in the golden treasure chest and heart of time. Attachment, jealousy, anger, clinging, and psycho-drama is what blocks the golden moments from coming through. Wouldn’t it be a nicer world if everyone wanted to see everyone happy, healthy, and wise, even free?
On the positive side, this is a good time to end winter and throw out whatever old baggage, emotions, and thinking that doesn’t support the full realization of ‘who am I’? What is my work in the world? How can I find my creative part in making the world a better place for us all? The cardinal signs previously mentioned may need to avoid helping others you can’t help. Avoid being weighed down with too many problems of others. Let go and let God. Try to see your troubles as doors of opportunity. Opportunity to learn and to free yourself in new ways.
Leo, Sagittarius, and Taurus signs may find it easier during this time to say ‘out with the bad and in with the good’. These signs find it easier to accomplish new turnings in their life, along with a renewed sense of self and the world.

6) Pluto Retrograde April 2nd, retrograding until September 8th will affect the early cardinal signs, but also the late mutable signs of Sagittarius, Pisces, Gemini, Virgo (especially those born the 16th to 19th of March, June, September, and December. These signs (and planets at these late degrees) need really take care and try to complete all matters relating to legal disputes, love triangles or even squares. Completing or ending all disputes, psycho dramas. Anger or jealousy will seriously affect health and wealth prosperity here. Strong need here for yoga, healthy diet, exercise, and a more positive view of life. Avoid hoping for others to come through or save you at this time. Reading Emerson’s book, ‘Self Reliance,’ or one of the many good Tibetan books on meditation and mind-training could be very helpful in re-orchestrating this time into something positive. Avoid all big-headed schemes and plans for over-night success. Avoid gambling and trusting others. Avoid being paranoid. If over worried about money, try reading and studying the book by Wattles entitled, ‘How To Get Rich’. Richness first discovered within is unlimited.
On the world level, Pluto retrograde will give us another chance to seriously try to educate ourselves about investments and securities, insurance and health issues, as well as re-evaluating our investment firms, banks, prison reform, and health reform. Pluto moving retro back into Sagittarius, may also be a revisit to more scandals involving top level individuals in politics, religion, sports.
Pluto retrograde may reveal more cracks in world economics and bad ecology as well as the powers that be trying to fix up the cracks. Pluto rules all and everything that affects us all in every little thing of our life. Watch for strong shifts in banking and investment. Strong power plays and take overs, sell outs, and new bottoming outs and new over the tops. Strong changes in the weather.

7) April’s difficult or negative days to take care and beware of downfalls and troubles are — April 2nd, 3rd, 4th, 6th; April 10th, 11th; April 29th. These may also prove to be wired weird weather days. (April 4th and 10th have good and bad aspects).

April’s Positive Good Vibe days to enjoy, plow ahead, dancing into success and forward motion are: April 4th and 10th have good and difficult aspects so take care to know what you are really doing. But best days are April 13th, 18th, 19th, 20th, 21st, 22nd, 27th, 28th, and maybe the 23rd-24th if you don’t over do or over eat those 2 daze. These are good aspect days for actually being successful helping others to help themselves, to grow, to flower.

9) Venus Square Mars on April 23rd is a love crazy sexy day. Great aspect for flirting or having fun. Bad aspect for picking fights. Venus/Mars in spring time makes everyone feel sexy. Feeling attractive and/or attracting power is present. Although Venus/Mars aspects make for minor jealousies or love quarrels, it’s a great aspect for playing around lightly and friendly. My advice is to have fun and share, don’t make any major investments. Particularly crazed and in need of Mu Tea and a good mile walk would be all those born near the 12th or middle of the month (especially Cancer and Capricorn). This aspect is particularly good for those doing yoga, vegetarians, meditators, or energy or holistic healers. It is particularly bad for those who are control freaks, angry, or jealous.

10) As for Detroit’s Mayor Kwame Kilpatrick and the so-called ‘Sex Text Scandal’ — April brings Venus in the sky opposing the Mayor’s natal Pluto end of first week, as well as Mars in the sky conjuncting his natal Venus around the 20th-22nd. These aspects make for good love making, but also give a fighting spirit.

With transiting Neptune conjunct his natal midheaven while squaring his natal Mercury, look for the Mayor to be putting on his best acting self. These aspects good for hollywood, drama, theatre, music, and creating image. The Mayor’s long term aspects, as reported in past prediction talks and newsletters, remains difficult and long-winded. Pluto slowly enters the 7th house to oppose his natal Mars, revealing a long-winded, expensive and complicated court case. It also reveals the serious charges pending against him. The Neptune aspects reveal the many cover-ups or lies, each side accuses the other of. Hard to get facts and truth with Neptune. Pluto is the long distance runner. And who has the most long distance, money, and time to invest? In time, all this takes its toll on both the Mayor’s and Ms. Beatty’s health.
June/July and Sept/Oct still seem to be the next big event times according to the Astrology side of it. Watch for mid May on for the Mayor to again be a tempest in a big teapot when transiting Mars conjuncts his natal Moon. Does Christine B start to break? Does the Mayor slip in words again? This time the ‘F’ word?

The Mayor’s Natal Chart is Insightful.
For those of you who ask, the Mayor is a smart Gemini Sun trining Jupiter in Libra (things come easy, maybe too easy). His Mars in Cancer square his Uranus in Libra make for a quick hot tongue. If controlled, this aspect makes for strong oratory, debate, speech, and courageous daring action. When angry, one can lose control and say or do things one is sorry for later. Men with this aspect are prone to anger and hasty, aggressive action. It’s a make it or break it type aspect. Mid May’s Mars/Moon aspect may reveal a piece of such quick-to-react energy.

The Mayor’s natal Moon in Leo square to natal Jupiter reveals the tendency for pride and over doing whatever one does. Great aspect for partying or rallying up the troops. Bad aspect for getting carried away with overeating or overdoing. Whatever he does, he does in a big way with this aspect. The Mayor’s Pluto in Virgo squaring his Sun in Gemini reveals very powerful roots and ancestry as well as his strong determination and Nietzschean ‘will to power’ over rather than power through others. This aspect makes for tragic heroic figures as well as not so heroic, sorrowful, tragic figures. The positive side of this is courage to tell the truth and make bold new initiatives for the good, true and beautiful.
With transiting Pluto opposing his natal Sun starting in 2002-3 and carrying on to the Pluto transit opposing his natal Mars now into 2009-10 along with transit of Uranus square his natal Sun and opposing his natal Pluto, with Saturn coming to conjunct his natal Pluto in a year or two … The coming year or two appear to look very difficult and taxing astrologically. Of course, there are positive aspects and higher octaves to every difficult astrological aspect, but these aspects look very difficult for all but the most ascetic disciplined spiritual monk in retreat. What do you think? I think, his health may get him first. Progressed Moon square natal Pluto in September/October maybe break down or break through point. Boy, is this guy going to get a good book deal when it’s all said and done, or what? A movie? Someone should make a movie of this when it’s all done and through.

Also caught in the Mayor’s ‘Text and Sex’ is Christine Beatty. Her Chart is interesting. She has Gemini Sun (just like but earlier than Mayor’s) making her more a sister and a lover. Her Moon is in Pisces making her really more psychic and sensitive than meets the eye. Her Mars squares Pluto/Uranus and Moon making a T-Square. This makes her very angry, assertive, willful, and a strong, tough cookie at times. It also makes her brittle and breakable. At this point, she’s both angry and way over-sensitive.

Mars also trines her Jupiter so when she feels good, she’s really sweet. When she feels bad, you don’t want to argue with her. Neptune in Scorpio opposing her Gemini Sun makes her a really good lover and very sensuous and caring. She is truly the best of friends to have, and the worst of enemies. The Neptune opposition also makes her often feel cheated and betrayed. She truly must be going crazy at this point; freaked out that she has to listen to her authoritative lawyers and can’t really think or speak for herself at this time.

Ms Beatty’s transits reveal a very difficult time in September when retrograde Pluto goes back to oppose her natal Mars, while squaring her natal moon. Ouch. If I was her, I’d try to settle this whole thing earlier. If she didn’t feel ‘screwed’ before, she may at this time.

In July, when transiting Saturn squares her natal Sun, she may feel that she’s carrying the burden of the world; or at least someone else’s burden. The trouble here with these last few aspects is simple. It looks like Christine’s Beatty’s Astrology Chart gets nailed with bad aspects portending no easy way out. If she doesn’t turn state’s evidence and plea bargain, she very well may do badly in court and feel that she had ‘the worst end of the stick’, so to speak. If she does a plea bargain, she will need federal protection it seems. Tough chart. When Jupiter goes retrograde in May … I predict she will be considering all her options into the June/July craziness. Astrologically, May is a good time to do a plea bargain. Otherwise, I advise to take serious cover.

When Uranus conjuncts her natal Moon in late 2009-10, watch for state and face change. Or is she getting out of prison early? Big rebirth and rediscovery aspect here. Her life will be happier after this aspect for the rest of her life, methinks astrologically. It’s just getting there. Gosh, I imagine she has more respect for Heather Mills these daze. Meaning, she’s not divorced from the Mayor even though she’s not married to him. Configurate that one out.

9) With Pluto going retrograde April 2nd and coming in June/July to square Iraq’s natal Sun/Mercury in late Pisces, look for the war as well as the economy to keep being the number one worry of all the Presidential Candidates. As Saturn goes direct in early May, Health and Insurance issues will rise again as important issue, but until Saturn gets to the middle of Virgo in about a year, or even near the end of Virgo in 2 years, the health issues may not really take front burner.

10) John McCain has Venus conjunct Neptune in his natal chart making him at times seem like he’s your grandmother. His natal Mars squares his Uranus making him strongly reactive when angered, and a maverick intelligence. Moon in Capricorn opposing his Pluto makes for a smart and artful politician in his elder years, now. When strong and sweet, he is hard to beat. With Hillary and Obama hammering it out, John’s looking better all the time, ever strengthening his chances for a strong run for the Presidency. However, astrologically, I don’t see him winning.
Predictive wise, Uranus transit is about to conjunct his natal Saturn (April) and to oppose his natal Venus (in May). It seems like lots of changes on both sides of the fence are about to occur. Uranus on Saturn is change of structure and plans, perhaps upsets, calling for revamp of strategy. Or is there a challenge to his continuing to run?There will certainly be uncertainty when it comes to picking his Vice-President. Will it be a woman? Or a younger enthusiastic voice? With Saturn going direct in early May, coming in July to conjunct his natal Sun in Virgo, this will be a hard race to run, and taxing on his health. Assuming he makes it past July, the Uranus retrograde transit, coming close to squaring his Jupiter in November, will continually renew his youthful elder wisdom and energy.

11) “War and money, its all the same. I’ll take her love and kisses any day– Oh, Oh, what’s wrong with me? Does the lipstick not fit on my cheek?!” -From the ‘Rise Up’ CD, ‘What’s Wrong With Me’ Song.

Astrological Insights Coming Up for March ’08
by
Robert Thibodeau, spiritual researcher/astrologer. Mayflower Bookshop (248) 547-8227
“When there is enough Love in the world, there will be enough food in the world.” -robert of mayflower
MARCH 7th-8th, ’08 —Quakes and shake ups can rattle the make-up, but LOVE conquers all.
Sudden reversals in economic markets, roller-coaster politics, sports mishaps and upsets, crazy plays, and sudden break-ups and weird reunions. Here the past and present clash with no viable future in sight. At best, it’s creative buoyancy and breakthrough, sudden arousal and creative outbursts; at worst, it’s heartbreak, feeling attacked, breakdowns, and sudden wake-up calls and emergency responses. Good time to get rid of all those things that are killing you, and make the changes in your life that free your creative spirit in work and play and love. It’s a time to do early spring cleaning. A time to flower in your heart and soul in the Spirit of freedom, love and truth.
New Moon March 7th conjunct Uranus is earth quake weather, tough traveling, explosions and accidents, volatile stock markets. Mars is opposing Pluto too, and people get angry, frustrated, and mad. This is a crazy aspect for jealousy and psycho-drama when it comes to love and possessions. Venus and Mercury within orb conjunct Neptune brings out the ideals and far-away-dreams and get-a-ways. All this is good for spirituality and wisdom insight, but rough ride in the last of winter with early spring storms competing with last winter dumps. Watch out for the Green Hornet’s butler jumping out of the closet to attack you, just to check out your readiness and prep. Feeling attacked or under attack may call for a time out to reconsider plans. Big shake outs this month in politics, economics, and love life. With 6 planets near midheaven of new moon washington d.c. chart, Higher Self intuitions and artistic inspirations will be at an all time high. (Good book to deal with the changing times? Try reading Osho, Steiner, or the Dalai Lama for sparks from the spirit.)
Look for the dark red shade of the last full moon eclipse of February 20th to affect difficult day (daze) leading up to these shake and bake times of March 1st and March 5th to 8th. Negative politics, power plays behind the scenes, difficult economic troubles, extremes in the weather, and geopolitical hotspots ring right into the March New Moon where sudden shake-ups, and storms of wonder and breakthrough necessitate sudden challenging changes of direction for many a person, corporation, and state of government. (Shake Ups at the top mark this month’s astro aspects).
Uranus tends to force progress and intellectual awakening and growth. Uranus is known for shaking things up and shocks, but this planet always leaves one better off in the end, or at the new beginning. Uranus is known for sudden changes in relationships. In the geo-political arena, it brings about sudden shifts in policy and it’s difficult to see, in the midst of the storm, exactly who is friend and who is enemy. Uranus always shocks one into awakening fresh new views and increased awareness, making one smarter and more intelligent about decision-making. Will there be further surprises with presidential candidates?
Pisces, Virgo, Gemini, and Sagittarius tend to go through quick changes in job or relationships, direction in life. Many sudden insights flood them at this time with forced decision making. All things being equal, a need to go for the new and best in view, go for the change. Otherwise hang on to what works but don’t resist truth when you see it. Avoid over-reacting but, on the other hand, you may have been procrastinating for years in making a delayed decision or taking action on a problem now severely confronting you. Now is the time to act!? Say YES to everything that frees your spirit and heart. Say no to everything holding back your heart’s virtue and flowering intelligence. Good time to make changes in personal grooming or home pattern. Break old habits belaboring or weakening your spirit. Expect the unexpected and open a new way untrodden by your past. Avoid the beaten path if you don’t want to get beaten. Try taking new route to work and coming home. Explain yourself to yourself in new ways. Be still and know, everything is forever renewing or degenerating, so renew! Change is the name of the game. It’s time to open your eyes to all that you once took for granted, and go a new way that excites your spirit and soul.
Aquarius, Leo, Scorpio, Taurus tend to be over cautious and a bit dreamy, sleepy, warm and cozy and lovingly nestled, untroubled by events these daze; unless of course, it affects their money or security or fixed assets, or they are homeless in their heart and mind. Usually only Pisces understands what i just said, but Neptune has been making all the fixed signs ‘Pisces for a Year.’ Peculiar likes and dislikes (the astral body) enchant the past and future (the etheric) into displacing the present. Exercise and good food that grounds you helps. Avoid extremes in diet and emotions. In the next year, these signs will make strategic moves to progress and grow out of their tendency toward the future past and the past now present. Good signs for travel, gardening, the arts, movies (feeling like you’re in one), and novel ways of living a colorful romantic ideal life. Now is the time to work for your dream to manifest. Good for writing sci-fi or a secret love letter or romantic novel. Get in the Movie you idealize. Make the music your heart aspires to. Grow flowers or get a pet if you feel alone. You are your own walking religion these days so get out and love everybody.
Cancer, Capricorn, Aries, and Libra need to avoid any kind of force or coercive actions to another or upon themselves. Mistakes or hurts from the past may now make one overly cautious, sensitive, and conservative. Or are you aggressive at defending yourself, aggressive at taking what is perceived as yours? Good aspects for checking in on your own intentions and motivations, but even a better time for working for a better future. Be brave to plan, be brave in patience and courage to be yourself, be brave to take one step at a time. Good time for compassionate patience when it comes to self and others needs and desires. Slow but steady steps progress one at at this time. Avoid taking on burdens of others when you can’t carry your own. Avoid taking on more work or responsibility that side tracks your long term real aims and direction. Creative or forced changes in vocation or direction in life stirs one to free long pent up feelings and emotions. One’s ideals and ideas tend to be very imaginative but impractical, so take it slow and easy. One’s ideas need become one’s ideals; one’s ideals need to be practical, working in time to be realized, healthy, wealthy, and wise. These signs need now to follow the Higher Self, the ideal, the highest dream, but in dirt practical ways that hold the high ideal or spirit, virtue, or goal. It may take these signs a year to see if today’s plans pan out or fizzle. Be patient when it comes you your own feelings, compassionate and understanding when it comes to others. Helping others find happiness may be your number one ticket for your own happiness these months.
First Week of March Sun/Moon/Uranus new moon aspect could bring sudden shocks or alarm, crazy havoc in traveling, sudden change of plans, major aspect for EARTH QUAKEs, Travel mishaps and ACCIDENTS, upsets, sudden change of direction, troubles with machines and communications, and shockingly unusual storms and events, airplane snarls and craziness.
The Neptune aspects make for sleepiness or unconsciousness, as well as inspiration and sudden arousal of compassionate heroics. The Mars/Pluto, last experienced on New Year’s Eve going into first week of January, brought not only psychodrama/jealousy/anger/craziness, but also low sales and poor economic indicators. Lots of things going on sale at low price these daze while everything of quality going up. Weird times. Unfortunately, past indicators of inflation, and increased cost of quality goods and oil, prevail as the U.S. housing market and dollar sink. When Pluto goes retrograde in early April this trend may temporarily reverse. In the larger picture, Pluto into Capricorn is a major aspect for concern for world recession, clean water and air, peace, and a healthy world economy based on a compassionate ecology of consciousness and environmental health. As stated in past prediction posts, Pluto in Capricorn could bring on a reversal of the warming trend, bringing much severe weather, cold and storm (which it appears to be doing). The earth isn’t just warming up, its getting colder too; its going out of whack and going to extremes in the weather and more (in our thinking and feelings too, in our health). We are losing the middle way, spring and fall, the heart as mediator and meditator between the thinking and will. My thoughts are that unless we collectively and individually learn to love the whole earth, the spirit of the whole earth, and everything living in it, we are heading for even rougher wake up times; World recession or depression, global shortages of good food and water, war, and for certain — severe shortages of loving kindness, truth and awareness, as well as foreclosures on spiritual openness. Whether out of wisdom and compassion, or perhaps out of an ahrimanic bent or just crass ignorance and delusion, the world of necessity needs to find a renewed sense of unity, harmony and peace, co-creativeness and loving kindness in March. Clearly there is a need for rebirth of the heart of imagination and inspiration. With the mars/pluto fear sells and paranoia makes one frozen. Remember this:
“Where there is love, there is no fear. Where there is truth, there is no desire.” -robert of mayflower
March 7th to Full Moon on March 21st astrologically portends to be a tough one for those unwilling to change. Mars in Cancer opposing Pluto on New Moon, and then squaring Sun and Moon on the Full Moon can bring more than aggressive moves by those in power. Here is a concern for escalating or enlarging the scope of war in troubling hotspots, including the Middle East, Africa, Russian Balkans, Pakistan, India, Syria, everywhere. Mars brings out the martian warrior of force and aggression, as well as the rare notables such as St. Francis or Buddha, Gandhi or Kings, the peacemakers and spiritual citizens of social justice.
Here in Detroit, look for further quake troubles in the astrological chart of our MAYOR, apparently locked in dead-end scandals and lies. If he survives his political life this March month, he may drag out his legal problems for a while. In the long run his Pluto aspects may prove uncompromising. This will be tough month for him to survive his political career though. His Uranus aspects make it touch on the heart and health, and tough on personal relationships, keeping it together.
Speaking of past tough becoming now the love touch … Look for past Mayor Archer to make a political come back in politics.
Other notables having touchy tough aspects this month include the V.P. Cheney and Sen. McCain, health may be an issue as well as negative criticism critique. Sen. Obama has his own aspects for negative critique or inquiry, or is it just masses of people coming out of the woodwork to vote for him. Obama seems to have captured the dream of a better future. This is a breakthrough or breakdown month for all three working hard to see themselves clearly into a future that holds them. All three have crisis opportunity astrological aspects indicating major need to change or be changed, move or be moved, hold and behold. Why can’t Britney Spears learn some of these guys good tricks and survival moves?
MARCH 27th AND 28th bring spring flowers and a breath of fresh air, kind new beginnings and gentle thoughts of loving kindness and sharing. Mercury and Venus conjunct Uranus. Spring Love Fever is here. Take care not to act rashly and too hastily, avoiding sudden snap backs from those around you. As we can see in the housing market, inflation is followed by deflation.
March with its crazy zany aspects may prove to be the Lion’s Roar when it comes to crazy stormy weather and hazardous conditions. On the bright side, March may prove to be quite positive for creative changes bringing about a more positive outlook for the future. The Uranus and Neptune aspects make for very ideal and creative times for music and arts, new inventions and creative innovations, breath-taking daring and dream sharing. When it comes to truth and love in both relationships and politics, personal love and social cultural community and friends, March is a rocking time for the arts of happiness and play. Although Mars Pluto aspects give pause for serious reassessment of priorities, security, and ‘what and how to be passionate’ about what we do without killing ourselves or our loved ones. It also gives cause to struggle, work, and fight for what is right, what is true, what makes us feel good about ourselves and our world. Whoever wins our vote for President, or who we want to be present for, depends on this kind of honesty, trust, and faith based on direct experience.
To live a life of love and truth is to teach by example. Pluto at the crossroads of Sagittarius/Capricorn reveals this. Living the life you preach is a necessity for survival. A new politics of loving kindness, and open hand open minded diplomacy is needed. Honest conversing and a new economics that honors the land, the earth, and those who live and work it, is now called for.
With Virgo Saturn at the handle of a bucket chart for the new moon in March, and six planets opposing in Aquarius/Pisces, the struggle continues for health care that serves both those who are sick and need it, and those wanting to profit from it. Do we have to profit from what everyone needs? Good education, food and shelter, good water and air, honesty? There is a struggle continuing between freedom and necessity, openness and closed authority; closed-minded old fashioned values and critical analysis, versus an ideal open-minded experimental model of diplomacy and freedom. (Steiner’s Philosophy of Freedom book is a good one on this topic)…
Look to APRIL for ‘war of the sexes’ aspects the continuing drama of economics and politics and the bed they sleep in. The need for a greater harmony between the ideal and our practical day-to-day needs prevails. What we work and job for, what we bleed and sob for, struggle to get on the same page. April’s Neptune struggles to reconcile how LOVE can be blind yet alarmingly practical and necessary to feeling alive and healthy. (cardinal and fixed signs tak note). Certainly this will prove to be a month where Hollywood (and the Holly Wood within you) is confused (oops, did i say mutable signs here dreaming). Dreams and Ideals meet the practical road in April. Many hit pay dirt, others get pained and paid dirt.
By New Moon MAY 5th, Happiness and Spring arrive with a smile.
Many predictions given at the November ’07 and Jan. ’08 talks have proven true. Super Bowl upset and low score, the Mayor’s scandal and text affair, more earth quakes all of a sudden. As for Presidential predictions, Obama with Pluto opp venus seems to have avoided scandals and is experiencing a ground swell (pluto) of support. Sen Clinton has not overcome her Jan bad aspects.
McCain with Saturn/Sun aspects in February seems to, instead of cracking or having a heart/health problem, appears to be a carved stone of granite determination and bravado. Both these candidates have yet to get thru March’s crazy Uranus aspects to continue their upward March.
Blessings on your future!

In November and January 20th Astrology Predictions Talk, Robert Predicted—and still predicts!
1. In November and January, he predicted that the Mayor of Detroit would any minute get caught up in further scandals or legal problems threatening his position as Mayor. This immediately happened 3 days after the last talk. It will be difficult for the Mayor to last as Mayor, by Mid February to early March his difficult astrological aspects may force him to step down. Or does he fight it out for a year and a half before dropping out of the picture. Meanwhile, past Mayor Archer looks better and better as time goes by. He just announced he may run for Governor of Michigan. Stay tuned….we’ll check his chart out soon!
2.The last talk prediction proved true….that Super Bowl may be an upset, Giants could win, and for sure they would not lose by the 13 points they were given. Also that it would be a low scoring game due to pluto and saturn aspects. This just happened.
3.Also predicted in November and January that, in February, McCain and Obama both have difficult or tough aspects and that, if Mrs. Clinton and Mitt Romney hold out thru February, they would win the nomination to run for President of the United States; and that astrologically it would be a close race with Mrs. Clinton Winning. McCain has no chance astrologically of beating Mrs. Clinton. Romney’s aspects become ever more powerful as time goes on. I also predicted that the NY Mayor B. would not run. As of now, Mr Romney has “suspended” his run. We may see more of him later. VP possibility? Maybe…
With Mr. Obama’s transit of Pluto on his natal Venus, February brings strong love and hate out for him. Will he get into a scandal? Love or Money Scandal? Or is it masses of uprisings and people voting for strong change? Other difficult uranus aspects for Mr Obama will make this a most hazardous and difficult run for President. Many compare him to Bobby Kennedy. Let’s hope he avoids the same conclusion. Uranus can be dangerous, but also makes for electrifying speeches and freedom loving motivations.
4.March 7th New Moon being the most critical and shocking new or full moon, with sun moon uranus conjunct and mars on the ascendent of Washington DC Chart opposing pluto, and venus conjunct neptune mercury. Whoever’s left standing after mid march may be our candidate. With Saturn oppose Uranus on november’s election day, look forward to one of the most controversial, unusual and surprising, and one of the most contested races ever. Lost of suprises and upsets probable with Uranus in the game. In this election, it’s not over till it’s over, and maybe not even then. Hey, isn’t that what happened last election? President Bush and Mayor Kilpatrick prove that winning past elections with bad and difficult astrological aspects does not make for fun time in office. Well, all the now running candidates have tough aspects. This may say something about what America is in for. With Pluto going into Capricorn and coming to oppose the USA Sun Sign, good water, air, and quality food will ever more become a big issue. And that’s to say nothing about the sinking dollar and real estate. Have you noticed how more schools teach Chinese? Hmmmmm….More on this at next talk.
Early March Uranus/Sun/Moon aspects a time for major shake ups. Look out for accidents, war, chaos, quakes, volcanoes, violence, and confusion. This would be for certain a major shake up for presidential candidates, especially Mr. Obama, and also for the Detroit Mayor K. Generally speaking, although this is a dangerous time when accidents and harsh or wrong language may be used, quick and sudden decisions, changes, and firings, deaths, removals, shake-ups occur clearing the ground for more positive change in the future.
5. Late February, early March (to March 21st or so) is a good time to avoid anger and threatening psycho-drama. Good time for making positive changes in one’s life style, diet, exercise, and spiritual virtue training. Good time to rid oneself of what doesn’t work in one’s life. Any false ideals or intentions will be rooted out at this time. Difficult time to travel or be aggressive unless one really knows what they are doing. This can be a very creative time needing time to fully manifest and concretize or realize the dream or ideal visualized.
6.In both November and January talks, I mentioned the troubled aspects of Ms. Britney Spears and the danger of a suicide or total breakdown. Stay tuned on this one.
7.May and November, as well as March, are particularly difficult months for unusually stormy nasty weather, floods, rain, snow, etc. around the world.
8. 2008 and 2010 being big astrological years for change, 2012 (Mayan Calendar ends) may just be a fizzle and wash out year.
9. Danger of falling dollar and sinking economy backs off in April, but such fears return in September ‘08. Gold up now but falls from April to September, as does the price of oil. More on this at February 17th Om Cafe Talk.
10. New Hot Books selling at Mayflower are:
A. The Secret History of the World , As Laid Down by the Secret Societies by Mark Booth.
B. Esoteric Lessons by Rudolf Steiner (never before in English, secret school of spiritual science lessons).
C. Initiation into Hermetics by Bardon, on magic and psychic training

the Whirling World is whispering
its wisdoms to be

12 Geo-Cosmic Astrological Notes for January 2008 and beyond—
(Taken from Om Cafe Talk Jan 20th at noon)

1. As mentioned at OM CAFE, Ferndale Michigan, November talk and again last Sunday Jan. 20th ‘08, I’m sticking to the astrological indication that Hillary Clinton and Mitt Romney will in most likelihood, be the Presidential Nominees, with Mrs. Clinton winning by a close margin. Full talk available at Mayflower Bookshop.
2. With Vegas giving 13 plus points to the Giants and minus that to the Patriots, the Super Bowl Astrological Indications favor the Giants. Just a reminder, Gambling on anything other than your inner self, mind and soul, flowering and manifesting as a gift to the World, is a foolish bet. Since I avoid spectator sports, I need a friend to call me in timely fashion, so I am not lured into tuning in just to hear what Tom Petty does at half time. I love playing his songs on guitar. These are tough times for good music. If you don’t fit corporate needs, you don’t get played on the radio. Considering Tom’s Last DJ album CD, this is a strange super stupor bowl indeed.
3. With Pluto going into Capricorn, there’s more at stake than just the shaky stock markets of the world. How about good water and air, and thus good quality food? As for the markets, perhaps it’s time to take the gambling out of it; take the options and futures out of it. What happened to long-term investing in businesses that help the world be a better place? The greed and fear perpetuating the ‘make money on money’ thing is sickening the spiritual soul life of many a man. And this is to say nothing of just printing money to patch things up. Even Pres. Abe Lincoln and the early transcendentalist and patriot, Ben Franklin, warned us against bankers and corporate greed.
4. Astrologically, from the Jan. 21st ‘08 Jupiter trine Saturn to the near Saturn/Pluto trine in May ‘08, reveal serious attempts to stabilize the economy and end the perpetual war. This time period should get hold of some solid groundedness in all relationships, including economics and politics, bringing sense of peace to the roller-coaster of social cultural craziness that many of us experience. This aspect will bring a priority of saneness and practicality to view.
Last week of January, Mars going direct and Mercury going retrograde may prove to be quite the shake up and shake off, for those not buckled in their seats. This, both financially and relationship wise.
5. Funny how, as Pluto goes into Capricorn (proverbially the top of the chart north pole 10th house), the poles are melting. We’re also losing the two poles of the human bring, our clear thinking and willing/feeling. It’s time to truly find the middle way of the HEART. See my new cd talks release,
“The Yoga of Sleep, Dreams and Awakening the Meaning of Life”
and
“Meditation, Making the Whole Day Sacred”.
Wherein are the teachings and insights to awakening the Heart as an instrument of spiritual thinking and willing, truth and loving kindness.
6) Pluto going through Capricorn through the next several years, and opposing USA’s Sun sign in Cancer, definitely indicates the dangers of pollution destroying what was once called ‘the Bread Basket of the World’. It also indicates the need for World Peace and Harmony between diverse countries and cultures, or a worsening of poverty, crime, and injustice necessitating further measures of limitation of freedom and joy on the planet. Pluto is an energetic of death and rebirth, dictatorial plutocracy or compassion politics. In Capricorn, it very well may indicate the death and rebirth of Hierarchy and the need for a new understanding of what is common to all of us: the need for a home, food, education, security to grow, and a learning to give the gift of selfless self. What belongs to all of us, air / water / earth / stars; nobody seems responsible for. WE are losing the quality of life. If there is a true spirituality, a true virtue mind and spiritual teaching, now is the time to get it friends. Whether the world ends in 2050-60, as Sir Isaac Newton predicted by using the astrology in the Book of Revelations, or it ends in 2012 at the end of the Mayan Calendar and next Venus Transit, or it ends with your stock investments, personal relationships, last breath, or at the end of the clock at the Stupor Bowl, it matters not. What matters is that we get free of fear and desire, enlightened, and we fully flower with all our gifts of intelligence and love! Love has no fear, Truth has no boundaries, no limits of discovery and learning. As Plato said, if you are willing to learn, anything can happen. The ultimate virtue is to be your self. But who are we? Mayflower READING and STUDY suggestions include:
a) Knowledge of the Higher Worlds, Outline of Occult Science, and Esoteric Lessons by Rudolf Steiner
b) Light on the Path by Collins, and The Voice of the Silence by HPB
c) Introduction to Tantra by Lama Yeshe
d) The Mustard Seed, and Women by OSHO
e) The Pregnant Virgin by Marion Woodman
f) Self Healing Cookbook by Turner
g) The Heart Meditation, by R. Thibodeau
(All attainable at any good bookshop or Mayflower Bookshop)
h) Reading the Rudolf Steiner archive.
7) With Saturn now in Virgo, criticism that is not constructive and done in loving kindness, will make you sick. It’s also an indication that the work place or job one has, makes one healthy (or not). When Saturn goes into a sign, whatever the sign is, the concern is for the coming year. The second year or so in the sign is the resolution or solving of the concern. Thus Saturn in Virgo is the concern for RIGHT WORK, LIVELIHOOD and HEALTH. It is the concern for long-term health and the details of insurance, assurance, and reassurance when it comes to work and health. Wouldn’t it be nice if everyone got into organic backyard gardening? Look to 2010 when Saturn goes into Libra for the resolution of all these problems. But then comes a year and more of concerns about relationships.
November 4th on Election Day, Saturn opposes Uranus triggering from then, until July 2010, a struggle in the populace for security and freedom. This opposition will take place 5 times due to retrogrades. By July 2010, the Uranus going into Aries, and Saturn into Libra, may precipitate a whole new way of relating, relationships, marriage, and negotiating. Many breakdowns and breakthroughs in science and technology, economics and politics will occur. This aspect portends of strong polarization in the populace. The positive side would be the meeting of the best wisdom of the past with the current challenges and necessities of the time present. Uranus is genius meeting Saturnian wisdom coming through time, and accelerating us to the next higher level of love and truth.
Surely these times are the ‘end times’ for unenlightened politics and economics. It is time to act out of a higher calling, a more virtuous selfless calling. It is time for what Robert Thurman calls , a “Politics of Compassion”. It is time to find our right relationship to all that lives. To find and dialogue with that part of our own self that is relative to all in all. It is time to see and act with what is beyond this one life time, this one self. The Native Americans refer to living a life that honors the last seven generations and the next seven generations. It is time to live out of a higher love and respect for all of life. With Pluto in Capricorn, war for profit is killing all of us. Let us be brave for love and truth, for a future that includes us all. With the Saturn Uranus aspect, it is dangerous to act out of haste and premature deliberation. As King and Buddha stated, violence breeds violence, love begets love.
Last times we had this Saturn/Uranus thing was the roaring 20’s (a conflict between too much freedom and its limitation/prohibition), and the rip roaring 60’s (raw youthful radical Uranian intelligence contests or protests Saturnine restrictions and authority). At the moment, it appears that many young people are suddenly taking interest in voting in such way. This aspect, until 2010, also points to the struggle with figuring out medicare, social security, hospital care, etc. It reveals the mass interest in alternative health care and whole foods as healing and preventative medicine. It reveals the struggle between the profiteers of insurance and pharmaceuticals vs. those who want the freedom to explore inexpensive natural alternative healing techniques. You would think with the cost of medical help, the powers that be would more fully embrace anyone interested in yoga, herbs, psychic healing, or any healthy placebo that may do the trick. After all, doesn’t scientific experiment after experiment prove that the placebo effect works just as efficiently? And without the side affects of materialistic technique and medicine?
9) Watch for March, May, November’s Jupiter Sextile Uranus for a break in the clouds and a light at the end of the tunnel. Innovative positive spiritual insights come easy at these times. Easy insights allowing for inner growth and awareness abound at this time. Good time here for catching up to family and friends, music and poetics, creative play.
10) With the Jupiter trine Saturn, look to manifest in January, September, November ‘08, what you dreamed and aspired to in March and May of ‘07. 2008 will prove to be a year of completion and manifestation of your dream, or the need to get rid of dumb dreams and holding out for false ideals and hopes. Where there is hope there is despair, where there is a dreamer, there is an economic hitman next door? Make your dreams nightmares that drive you to awaken, to manifest the dream to reality. Otherwise dump the dreams and live in the present. Accept the way things are for now to work toward a better tomorrow. Don’t live in dreams, strive to manifest and make real the dream. Dylan said he who is dreaming is still asleep. Awaken the dreamer with deeds of virtue and non-attachment. (See ‘Yoga of Sleep’ cd).
11. One of the wildest times of the year? March new and full moons. Largest winter storms? Hollywood Upsets? Quakes and Storms, Volcanoes and explosions? Break ups and love craziness? More war and terroristics? Well, maybe; but what a great time for adventure and spiritual exploration. Sun/Moon/Uranus conjunct along with Venus/Neptune/Mercury conjunct. New Spiritual Teachers and Teachings make themselves known at this time. Strong shifts in who’s running things, and who’s running for leadership position, but great time to free oneself from negativity and psycho-drama long enough to experience higher consciousness. Have you heard the new songs on the RISE UP cd? It addresses many of these challenging problems concerning love and other difficulties such as social justice. Second craziest time is the week before and after the full moon of August. Here Tom Petty is right, it is good to be king, but kings often lose their head. Discipline and a watchful mind are needed here at this time. Lots of endings and new beginnings as we head toward the Fall and election time.
12. Best time to land long term plans? Repair past bad karma? Make amends with elders or past loves??? Try the first week in May. Venus/Moon, Saturn, and Pluto in loose grand trine. Love proves at this time to be greater than unresolved emotional hardship and memory. Love and truth are the greatest healers and teacher. Suffering will never let you down with opportunity to purify, to have compassion for the struggle of the soul/mind seeking wholeness, healing, and freedom; for the opportunity to re-educate and develop a wilingness to learn anew a way to be of help, of service to those who know less and suffer more, of doing right and uplifting the hearts and minds of those we share this world with. Love will move you to ever greater deeds of virtue, and truth will enbraven you to be true to your genuine self, higher self.
All the Best for the New Year,

Jupiter Pluto Conjunct in Sagittarius; the End of Knowledge, Nature, and the Dollar, and just another excuse to party? Or is something real happening to our higher mind?

What? Me Worry?

Jupiter conjuncts Pluto about every 13 years, making it a collective puberty rite, so to speak. Here’s where everybody wants to leave their parents restrictions. Sometimes that’s your routine, friend, boss, party, or authoritative mate. Besides leaving, it’s good for coming too, coming to your senses. Jupiter/Pluto is the sigil for death and rebirth of
the social identity. Here’s where lots of familiar family and friends untie the knots in their life, and part the way, part the sea and cross. Others may find themselves hooking up and casting fear to the wind, docking a new boat after sinking the old one, and tying the knot anew. At any rate, it’s a definite blow out if one is apt to go to extremes.
Jupiter Pluto coming up should pretty much seal the fate of many a proposition and situation in the world. It’s an aspect where people want to finish old business with ‘enough already’ attitude, as well as a ‘get on with it’ one.

This, and the few weeks to follow, should be the peek moment for the dollar crisis, sub-prime loan crisis, Bond crisis, economic crisis, stock market crisis, oil crisis, war crisis, political crisis, constitutional crisis; even the breaking point for the ecological crisis pending cognition ignition. Even the Jesus or Christ crisis, and fundamental crisis. Certainly these times give us all much to ponder. Jupiter Pluto makes things go to extremes and then pop, explode, turn around, and ground. The last apparent time Jupiter Pluto conjuncted on the Galactic Center in Sagittarius was in October 1758, Pope Benedict the 4th died and the 8th Dalai Lama died. This time, big-time sports as a virtuous role model for youth is dying. So are religious and political virtuous authority figures and emulation models. Politics, sports, religion, travel, it’s all dirty now. Easy fun long distance travel is intimidating and be-labored. Jupiter Pluto brings about a crisis in social justice issues, demanding soul-searching mindfulness when it comes to inequalities between the poor and rich, the social masses and the plutocrats who rule. Here, lone individuals (Pluto) try to speak their truth to the collective whole (Jupiter). On the other hand, here is where a few (Plutocrats) rule over the masses (Jupiter). Here is where they meet, at such points of time, every 13 years, for a celestial conference. All this December, happenings will reach a crisis point of break-through or breakdown by the Mars opposition Pluto January 2nd, 2008.

Jupiter/Pluto is the desire for power or the loss of power. It is a need for political and social, spiritual and material, economic and ecological renewal in both the sciences and the arts. It is the need to have something meaningful to say rather than the same old same old glut of crass advertisements and medications of the spirit. Often Jupiter/Pluto reveals some world event that moves the masses to rise in either support or reprisal.
Here psychodrama and antics propelled by jealousy, attachment, anger, hatred, and poor view of self, won’t work. Acting out of love and compassion and a greater sense of wholeness and belonging is the way to go.

WHAT HAPPENED BEFORE WHEN IT HIT, JUPITER/PLUTO CONJUNCT?
Do things now repeat or go in reverse?

1994-95 Jupiter conjunct Pluto in Scorpio led to:
Iraq disarmament crisis. Now it’s Iran? Others?
Newt Gingrich leads the GOP in taking over both houses. Now what? The opposite?
White Water Scandal Investigations begin in Washington leading up to Impeachment attempt. Now?
World Trade Organization established? Is it working or reversing?
Big earthquake in Japan.

1981 Jupiter conjunct Pluto in Libra:
In USA there’s trouble containing inflation with lots of fears of defaulting. We may now have trouble containing the deflation and the inflation, depending on what you’re buying. All the good stuff seems to cost more, but houses and dollar, commercial real estate are down.
Time Magazine says a computer is man of the year. Maybe that’s now the problem, computers run things.
Record cold that year! Watch out, here it come. Pluto going into Capricorn for the next number of years could very well spin our wheels from global warming to global freezing, as mother earth tries to find a new balance in an out-of-balanced toxic war environ.
Falkland Islands War
Debt Crisis in Mexico
Pope John Paul wounded by gunman. Not a good time for popes it seems.
Egyptian President Anwat el-Sadat assassinated
AIDS first identified
Microsoft IBM first personal computer released to public. Look for further breakthroughs.

In 1968:
Beatles released White Album
Robert Kennedy Assasinated
demonstrations against Vietnam War
President Johnson announces cessation of bombing in Vietnam.

Other past dates of Jupiter/Pluto include these events:
Gandhi leads revolt in India, largest building in the world (Empire State Building) opens, Rosa Parks (who in past visited Mayflower Bookshop!) refuses to give up bus seat to a white man and is arrested, Winston Churchill resigns, ‘Lady and the Tramp’ disney movie debuts, first Atomic generated electric power sold commercially. Late 1893 into 1894 brought strong hurricanes to the USA. Way back in history, Pluto on Galactic Center in 470-468 BC brought the end of the Persian Empire (where the war is now). In 271-273 AD, the Roman Empire began fragmenting. 1758-1760 begins the 7 Year War, a kind of world war. Some think a Jupiter/Pluto conjunction occurred in late 26, early 27 AD, placing it around the time of the experiences of Jesus in the missing years so mysteriously spoken of in Rudolf Steiner’s ‘Fifth Gospel’.

Be it as it may, if you know what house late Sagittarius is in your own personal astrology chart, you will know what area of life, love, or work may be needing repair and a new paint job; or where dead-endings make for new beginnings. It’s a make it or break it kind of aspect. Unless you know what you are doing, be careful of going to extremes. This will be a tough holiday season into the new year for not falling into negative patterns of the past. All being well, it’s a great time for renewing one’s social, political and spiritual values.

Signs most affected by the crazy aspect side of Jupiter/Pluto in the sky include late mutable signs of Sagittarius, Virgo, Gemini, Pisces born around 17th to 22nd of their month. Mars retrograde’s anger or courage, aggression or repression is most felt by cardinal signs of Cancer, Capricorn, Libra, Aries born near 20th to 29th of the month.

****************************************************************************************

Look for winter, winers, and winos to come on strong 1st of December with Moon and Sun squaring Saturn, on December 9th to 13th.

Get your shopping done early…..!!! Around the 19th to 21st December with Saturn going retrograde and Mars squaring Neptune, traffic and weather snarls abound as well as misguided good and bad intentions. As we get past the Mars oppose Pluto early January, and enter 2008 moving toward Jupiter trine Saturn and Mars trine Uranus, things will smooth out and get more stable in politics, economics, and at home.

In the heart
silence awakens
holding a world
Word whirling in
the heart/mind you are
all love blooming
worthy of the greatest
dream, you are capable;
You, World is your mirror-
hold no one, all one accountable.
You are the Truth
each of us a glint
a flint in the earth heart,
a sacred glimpse, a holy breath,
a smile of belly heart
on the face of the world,
a spark in the dark infinite
I do. Ah Oh MMM!
Aaah ! In the wonder of it all
opening mind arms out stretched up.
O O O ! Heart holding hearth
whirling world Word molding
from within unfolding inner splendor
truth and beauty reaching all round
cupping every living thing with invisible
arms of love.
MMM AUM OM MMM, at home,
at home with it all, right working in all that
we do.
In the deepest silence of our deepest heart
is an invisible ear, an eye, a hand
holding the world. This deepest deep heart is
pure prakriti, pure matter, the one without a second,
the Virgin Isis, and Maya mother of Buddha,
It is the womb of the world, the purest inviolate matter,
self. The World is our Spiritual Self ever changing,
ever made anew. The world is our spiritual self ever
moving and changing and unchanging and harmonizing
with the silent partner of our heart. The mind is what arises
in virtue of the harmony, the balance, the middle way.
Between the ear and eye of the heart and the helping hand
of the world arises the heart of dharma, the moksha, the freedom,
\the bodhi mind, the heart of awareness, Nirvana, Heaven, Peace;
coming and going and neither coming nor going
ever present pristine awareness. Om Ah Hum,
Om Tat Sat, Sat Chit Ananda, AUM.
Victory victory O where is your smile;
sleep or death, where is your loss;
Each has traveled so many lifetimes and miles
to find this holy world pentacost circling in
the kiss of the ages where spirit and matter meet
a new day rising in a single word in silence spoken
by the heart to the heart.

-robert of mayflower
november 27, ‘07

Everyone you are, the world, in the morning
step into the silence of heart’s empty open
holding the world. With one in breath,
drink the whole night and let go.
Find the mind’s eye, a sun mirroring the dark
void of possibility yawning, vast spirit.
Head offers up glistening memories sinking
in the heart of all our past lives, all the nights
wake in this new morning listening
from the center of the body, earth;
this third ear listening for the Word,
this day rising before us. Open
your heart’s ear and listen
to the footsteps, every breath
follows a Star. What sense this?
First dream, every dream?
The mind can only be witness
to this coming home of everything.
The heart will break its big belly,
a world of pleasure and pain
to find a child birthing the universe
a mind of a hero, a god. Here
there is room for the whole family
returning for the holidays, the world
in its struggle, highest dream.
Wake up the Soul in
Spirit of the World!
What else could the cooks and alchemists
be brewing and stewing
in this long absence of our Self?
History a broken grail,
fragments all seeking wholeness.
How often we’ve settled to be glued together
or to sit by the edge of the sea, or
in a museum of mirrors,
shattered glass and memory?
A vast sea of dark space glitters
with starry embers of broken moments
fingers of light outreaching within
vast unknown lands of our own heart
shining just enough to hold the night
from falling apart each day?
A burning sun daily carrying us
on a carousel of stone and animal
rising and falling circling forever
the sunset sunrise both our pleasure
and pain afford us, while above and
below angels sacrifice their bodies
while flying o’er our head with song.
It is I, the silence forever holding;
the mother ever feeding, receiving;
the father at one in secret blessing;
child of the universe, heart aground,
a seed, rising and rooting, a sound
cupped between two leaves opening
holding the one chance bought
when the heart first opened in love
the inseparable truth
the world ever proves
in our going still,
stillness growing,
mind stream continuum
of our Spirit Self;
an emptiness open
to catch every moment,
a light of the eternal
ever giving way.
Everyone you are
in this most secret
heart of the matter.

Paul McCartney and Heather Mills Astrology Aspects

“All we are saying, give more Love and be Peace, don’t take a chance; will ya?”
-robert of mayflower

Paul McCartney’s transits of Pluto opposing his natal Sun/Jupiter conjunct, and squaring his natal Neptune (Broken heart and dreams crushed); transiting Saturn conjunct natal North Node and squaring natal Saturn (clinging and not getting over it, procrastinating and dragging out inevitables); and transiting Neptune squaring his natal Venus (penis envy, pining for lost past and out of reach future, dreaming, projecting and wanting the impossible, crossed between Dorian Grey and Faust, betwixt and befiddle), don’t look for any quick solutions to this never-ending love story for Beatle boy and Lucy Luck Super Green Girl Heather Mills. My guess is Paul is still madly in love and won’t confess it. At any rate, new love affairs will fall ill or fail due to his relentlessly difficult astrological configurations. The Neptune transit opposing his Moon while squaring his natal Venus sure doesn’t help matters. Yep, the boy is hopelessly in love. My advice is get de-icer, be kind, compassionate, honest and genuinely true, and keep writing good love songs for all of us to lighten our load and grow from. If Paul continues to play power hard ball continuing to demonize Heather Mills, it will probably make him sick, wrecking ball his career, and plunder the last of his real imagination. As the new year rolls in and transiting Jupiter catches up to Pluto in the sky, both opposing Paul’s natal Jupiter, look for his last chance to make amends. I predict they’d both be smart to either settle their differences then and there, or forever hold their tongues. Look for summer of ’09 to summer of 2010 for Paul to settle down into happy quiet times, creative times, and possibly new love when Jupiter opposes his Moon, trines his Sun and Jupiter, while Pluto comes up to trine his North Node. Paul will settle into living, working, and loving friends. Right now may be the moment and time to take off the mask and get rid of the hurt and anger. Only love can break a heart and only love can mend it. Love without truth always feels victimized, and the truth starts with us living it. With his recent Pluto opposing Sun, it’s as the Traveling Wilbury’s put it, ‘The End of the Line’ of the ‘Long and Winding Road’. Many people with this aspect feel quite rejected or thrown out of power. Pluto is the ending of one phase of life, and the beginning of a new phase. Seeing everything as a learning opportunity is a good start. Astrology is a great time keeper and often can predict timing and possible events. Each of us has the freedom to make good of any aspect. With this array of numerous difficult aspects, if Paul didn’t see this coming, I’d change astrologers; and/or be patient for summer of ’09 into 2010. People don’t fight over love, they fight over bodies and things, money and toys.

Heather Mills in this last year had Saturn transiting squaring her natal Neptune revealing the death of the dream or ideal romance. Saturn just opposed her natal Mars revealing Paul’s putting his foot down, authoritative personal attacks on her own credibility. As Saturn approaches its square to both Heather’s natal Venus and Moon opposition, look for slowed down or dragged out proceedings. Often Saturn transiting in this position forming a loose grand cross with Heather’s natal T-Square of Venus/Moon/Mars, makes one reticent and regretful of past transgressions or doings. One wonders with her last summer’s transiting Jupiter square natal Venus if a secret affair may have gone astray. At any rate, with current astrological indications, one wonders if it’s too late to go back. Saturn aspects often make one fall back into true and tried ways of behavior and life style. With Jupiter coming into Capricorn in the coming year ’08, to trine Heather’s natal Saturn, a return to happiness and long term reliable stableness may be in the offing!?!

By the end of ’09 with transiting Jupiter conjunct her natal Sun in Capricorn, Heather will most likely find herself happily back in the saddle of marriage and long term happiness again. She very well could make up with Paul as friend or lover, or she will lock into another old friend from past life-time, yet be friends and at peace with Paul McCartney, the father of their beautiful child.

At the moment this Thanksgiving, transiting Uranus is squaring poor Heather’s natal Moon making for flip flops in decision making. My astrological guess is that she’s turning inside out again and totally rethinking everything she’s doing. Relationships with this aspect are on a roller coaster, off and on, on and off, up and down; usually ending up with someone having a broken heart. Its a heart-breaker for sure.

If one wants freedom and no kiss the same way twice, it’s a great aspect for a woman like Heather to have. It makes one a maverick of new creative ideas and doings. For security and quiet, it does not work. For freedom and genius, insights and creativity, it’s great. Great for new innovative ideas. Makes for a genius mind of the arts, a creatively green eco-feminine voice. Ever changing genius proclivities. Not the greatest aspect for security or peace of mind though.

At any rate, expect Ms. Mills, with her Saturn aspects coming, to settle down to a serious recollection of herself and a quieter settling into reality slow and sure ‘till later next summer ’08 when she too can sing ‘Here Comes the Sun’!

It will be interesting to see. Will Heather and Paul reunite? Or will they both find a new soul-mate simultaneously and decide to have a public double wedding showing all of us how a couple can separate and still be good friends?!!
