Spring 2009

The spring season arrives with intensity in politics and economics. The collective temper is steaming hot. We are still learning about how the economic crisis developed, which is going to help us to understand how to prevent such events in the future. At the same time, it is hard to believe that all the details are being presented to the public.

The bright side to the crisis is the potential for exciting and innovative developments. New businesses will come out all aspects of society as people begin to think of new ways to replace their lost jobs. Now that there is a more realistic recognition of personal value as earning power, people will be finding ways to make a living on what they are good at and by what they know.

The spring Equinox is an important beginning cycle for the year. On March 20, the chart featured Venus the planet of love and values on the horizon, essentially putting the focus on relationships and economic issues. The fact that Venus is retrograde points to re-evaluation. The American workforce is an arena that needs attention. All the energy seems to be focused at the top of the pyramid, while the actual force comes from the bottom; the workers. Jobs are the first place that companies cut costs. The self-protection built into the corporate model has been giving bonuses to the top, while seeing the workers as expendable. The Equinox chart suggests that this model of business needs to be adjusted. Tension will continue to brew with the public that is feeding the potential for civil disobedience in some form this month.

The new lunar cycle that began on March 26 conjoined with Venus, the planet of values, that is retrograde until April 17. This highlights all of the issues of greed and selfishness that seems to be the root of the economic crisis. A tight grouping of planets that brings a culmination of energies to focus on the need for deep healing is the internal challenge presented at the new moon. Put this into the perspective of a healing of social and cultural wounds that is dramatized by millions of Americans struggling for economic survival. There are still feelings of distrust and disgust focused on Wall Street, but soon we will find the optimism generated by new ideas and new beginnings.

President Obama became an international ambassador of America’s changed world attitude as he traveled through Europe meeting with world leaders. He addressed the international economic crisis by bringing about a surprising consensus among the G20 Summit leaders to collaborate and invest in the International Monetary Fund to improve the economy of third world countries. He ended his trip in Iraq meeting the troops and reaching out to the Iraqi government and people. President Obama’s trip coincides with astrological symbolism that represents a transformation of America’s values and political power.

While the President tries to polish a tarnished national persona, there continues to be a blending of the old and new administrations. One issue slipping into the current picture is the legalization of domestic wiretapping. It is disheartening to have the new administration reinforce the legal language that will essentially leave the American right to privacy a hollow statement. Obama’s own horoscope has some strong contacts to the USA horoscope express his personalized influence while acting as the head of government for the nation. He holds the influence to set controls on the silent and secret activities of the government. Such things as how the military acts against the ideals and beliefs of the general public. He can mesmerize or he can dash our hopes. There is more to discover in the new administration.

Mid-April has some strong energy that will prove to be instrumental in redirecting activities to stimulate the economy. Expect turbulence before the stabilizing of the market place. May has Mercury retrograde from the 7th to the 31st. This brings another review of the bailout process, which began back in October. The blockade happening in Congress continues to stall progress on into early June, when we might see some stabilizing events.

2009 happy new year

2009 happy new year

The New Year begins with several new cycles that give us different levels of changes to take advantage of, and initiate our own new beginnings. 2008 was a dramatic year in many respects. We had the theater of politics with new performing artists capturing our attention in a way that hasn’t happened for decades. The satire of the real politicians was almost as amusing first hand, as it was replayed by SNL. The collapse of the general marketplace is serious drama, with more layers coming. We will be letting go of more expanded habits and curbing our spending appetites in the coming early months of 2009.

The Winter Solstice is an important new cycle each year that sets the tone of many things. This year is especially potent for major renovations in foundational structures of business and economy, of systems and departments of governments, and down to personal patterns of responsibility and personal security. Where we have expanded beyond the solid boundary of black ink on the ledger, we will find ourselves in precarious territory. The forced purging of excess can also bring out interesting lessons and innovations. America is preparing to make major revaluing in all major areas of life. Our society is in need of major psychological review.

On the personal and local level, as individuals we will benefit from becoming more involved and acquainted to the people of our closest community. The time is passing for the level of anonymity that has become so common, especially in urban areas. Country people are much better at knowing their neighbors and creating communal support systems. When jobs are lacking, homes are foreclosed and businesses are failing, it becomes a blight in whole communities. To work for stronger local economies, we will need to pull together and not let each other fall to the gobbling corporate giants that will otherwise get the best of us for pennies on the dollar. New concepts of local people helping local people are the answers to these possibilities. 2009 will stimulate community brainstorming rather than hopelessness.

The Wall Street bailout is an example of the last gasp of the old guard trying to save themselves, but not the people. The plan happened under the last Mercury retrograde period. Mercury retraces its path from January 11 to February 2. This is a period of review and not one of clear-minded new decisions. The financial issues will loom large all year because of the wasteful decision to give the banks funds without oversight. There will be a lot of time and talk given to undoing the decisions of last October. The new administration comes into office knee deep in old business that demands reevaluation.

The end of January and early February is excited by eclipses, which tend to bring out themes of change. The focus relative to the United States chart is on resources and debts. The high potential is that the new government goes right to the task of revitalizing the American workforce with jobs of new technologies and future oriented training centers. At the same time, Americans are swamped with high interest debt. The sacrifice should come from the big banks that are holding back the real help that is needed for the lower income masses. Tax changes and debt forgiveness programs could help the country as much as the CEO’s giving their last five years of gravy back to the people. (Wishful thinking is going to get us through these times.)

Barack Obama will take his oath of office with his own important cycles taking him to great heights in the eyes of the world. While his new administration settles in, the team spirit will be a growing positive influence on everyone’s sense of future goals. The first steps will be to unify the cabinet and Congress. The Mercury cycle will key in to bringing disclosures from many areas of government business as leftovers from the outgoing managers. The news could be very interesting over the coming weeks.

The influence of the Lunar eclipse February 9 will likely give us relief to save people from losing their homes by working out new debt programs, and relief from piling interest and fees from credit card companies. The potential for people to see benefit from such changes could be as early as the end of February. It is also possible at that time to see the innovation of individuals come out with community plans and cooperatives to support each other locally. The themes of the cycles initiating 2009 focus on the group and the good of all. Many hands working together build harmonious futures.

December 2008

The end of 2008 is bringing some astounding changes in the world. Sometimes what initially seems bad becomes an improvement of circumstances. We are in a time of several large astrological cycles becoming active simultaneously.

The longest cycle is that of Pluto, which is about 248 years. Pluto’s influence is on the collective level and it exposes the themes relative to issues of power, control, and influence. On November 26, it changed signs into Capricorn, which governs capitalism, corporations, large structures, and governments. The event of this day is the attack on Mumbai, India. This attack illustrates the focus on prestigious people, Corporate Executives, Diplomats, and Israelis. Sophisticated and highly skilled mercenaries carried out their mission using a new mode of attack on strategic targets: targets that reflect the corporate economic hierarchy that has no national boundaries. This is the beginning of a 15-year theme where dramatic changes and deep transformations will take place.

Another important cyclic influence, as discussed in my last article, is the opposition between Saturn, the planet of order and status quo, with Uranus, the planet of revolution, invention, and surprising changes. The two planets will meet five times between November 4, 2008 and July 26, 2010. The link is directly to issues of the mid-1960’s, such as equal rights for minorities, ecological concerns over nuclear energy, and a war that had no value. All of these issues are revived, and situations are changing rapidly. The glass ceiling of race and gender is disintegrated.

The times call for a review of values and a renewal of vision for the future. While the fear-factor tends to hold people back from taking action in their lives on many levels, we have a wonderful opportunity to re-invent our selves and our society, even in the midst of this economic crisis. The talk of “green” jobs and “green” living is in perfect alignment with the strong earth element of the planetary positions. It is a time to make adjustments willingly, that bring us into greater alignment with collective values that support life.

Every being on the planet breathes. There are no boundaries in air or water. It has been an illusion that there are boundaries of nations on the earth. Shifting our awareness to the earth as a living entity will change the course of action in our approach to living “green”, which means sustainability. Many industries will become obsolete in the next 15 years. Looking to the future means imaging the many ways to live a more natural life, connecting to the earth and to each other.

The month of December is marked with dramatic astrological contacts that essentially set the themes for 2009. The Winter Solstice is a strong chart, followed by a very potent New Moon, on December 27, with six planets lined up in Capricorn, sending a message that many organizations, nations, and or corporations will need to collaborate to deal with issues that affect all.

The transition of the Presidency is coming to be an international unification to fortify economy and security. The decisions made this month are setting a direction for many years. Obama’s announcements of his cabinet and administrative staff are included. It is important to be alert to the shifts now that will affect us all globally.

International terrorism is seeded from the imbalance of wealth and power. Pirates, suicide bombers, and corporate crooks are the bi-product of a power sector of society that forgot humanity in the movement to unprecedented levels of ownership with equal disrespect for life. To change the growing trend, I believe it takes courage to face moving to a new general attitude of universality in humanity regardless of origin. No life, no country is more important than another is in the deeper truth. My wish is that starting at community level, we work together to improve the quality of life for ourselves, and our neighbors to be more self-sufficient and ecologically secure. Then, we work out from that point and change the world for the better. This period is likely to bring forward innovations and inventions from the younger pool of talent. As elders, we should listen hopefully to the imagining of our young people. They will make it so.

Sirius Star Talk- November 2008

Revolutionary Energies

Revolutionary Energies

What an amazing time this is! There are strong, revolutionary energies at work now. On Election Day, two slow moving planets meet in opposition to each other, marking a cycle of 43-45 years. Their last such meeting was 1965, a very volatile period of American history. By Thanksgiving, another important astrological event occurs that calls out our pre-Constitution history. Over the next 18 months, these three planets will move into a pattern that connects them in a powerful energetic alignment that will focus on collective, global events. These planets will trigger monumental changes as they enter what is called the Cardinal Climax. November 2008 is the “kick-off” to the whole party.

The Presidential campaign has been a good illustration of the opposition of Saturn in Virgo and Uranus in Pisces. Saturn represents tradition, authority, and the “status quo” of government and business. We often see Saturn represented as the older, “father-figure.” Saturn is moving through Virgo, the sign of details, analysis, health, and service. When Saturn entered Virgo in September 2007, the housing bubble burst. Now, the government has taken on the regulation and assessment of the financial sector, the super banks. Saturn limits and restricts, and calls for accountability. This is the Senate Hearing Committees calling failed bankers to explain their actions.

Uranus is the energy of breaking out of old restrictions and inventing new systems and techniques. In the ‘60’s, Uranus was joined with the power planet, Pluto. Then, we witnessed the overthrow of a social system that was built on a power hierarchy that disenfranchised minorities. The transformation of laws and social ideas is refreshed in our awareness now as these planets once again connect and redistribute power and wealth. Money has taken on the greatest power in the world. The shift at hand will bring our attention back to balancing our relationship with nature and humanity.

Uranus in Pisces represents the youth movement of consciousness and green living. Pisces is a sign of inclusiveness. It rules the oceans and the type of unifying things like atmosphere, breath, and the way water disperses everything it contains. Uranus is the idea of change, unexpected and unique. It always brings surprises.
In this Presidential contest, people appear to be strongly leaning toward the CHANGE candidate, but the outcome could be a shocking surprise. Consider how electrical energy can seem to come out of nowhere. A stray lightening bolt can travel miles and ricochet in wild directions. When lightening strikes water, it affects every molecule. The close of the poles in Hawaii features Neptune, planet of confusion and deception on the top of the chart, suggesting that we may have another long, vote “clarifying” process. It might be two to three weeks before the election is decided.

The New Moon, just before the election, has the influence of a face-off of rational ideas versus passionate emotions. The week before the election has the power of a steam-roller generating an undercurrent of emotional distortions. The Full Moon, a week after the election, introduces practical assessments. There will be better news on the economy after the 13th. This period will have many announcements and agreements that will move the economy forward, if a bit cautiously over the next few months.

The Sagittarius New Moon on Thanksgiving Day has a theme of hope and optimism. My projection is that Barack Obama wins the Presidency. This lunation has strong contacts to the horoscopes of both Obama and McCain, and to the Vice Presidential candidate’s charts. Senator Biden’s chart suggests he is taking on more responsibility. Sarah Palin’s chart appears to send her home to Alaska. McCain’s chart receives harsh challenge from the slow planets that create this remarkable period. Obama and his family move into the spotlight.

This New Moon hosts the movement of Pluto into the sign Capricorn, which represents corporations and large structures such as governments. Pluto represents power and transformation, as well as the power of money. Plutocrats are people with too much money, like the parachuting CEO’s of the fallen banks and insurance companies. The next 15 years will be comparable to America’s pre-Constitution struggles with England. In the next 5 years, Pluto’s influence will be affecting the US treasury and the entire global financial system. Pluto represents metamorphosis, so get ready for a new form of currency. New types of businesses and ways for people to survive the death of the old system will be the talk of coming months.

October 2008

There is no reason to expect October to be slow and uneventful, just the opposite. This month will percolate with unprecedented events. The countdown to the election takes center stage, of course. The distractions from this will be the fuzzy math going on between the White House and Wall Street.

Wall Street’s meltdown came just after the change of direction of planets that represent power, big money, and super corporations. This change of direction has the effect of a rubber band pulled taunt and released. Changes occur rapidly. What we are witnessing is the deflation of the expansive greed of these powerful entities, which went out of control during the years since 2001. That was the full moon phase of two important planets that govern structure and the growth of power figures.

We all remember the World Trade Center disaster. This marker will identify many levels of experiences that ended one way of life and began another. This was the peak of the cycle that began in 1982 (Reagan was President) and ends in 2020. Just as the moon begins to shrink through the waning phase of its cycle, we see the waning in the financial growth cycle. Panic and fear are elements of this phase similar to the third quarter moon. This is a harvest phase that will wane further into the winter (dark) of the growth cycle. No one feels prepared for this coming phase.

The first half of October is an unstable period with much discussion “up in the air.” This time of review and reorganization will focus on financial issues mainly, but will include issues of trust in all forms of relationships. There is so much to be revealed in this two week period that it is hard to imagine who, what, and how in these scenarios.

The second half of the month will bring some conclusions, but undoubtedly, more questions as well. The likelihood of a Congressional agreement on the Wallstreet bailout plan looks to be much later in the month, perhaps as late as the last week of October.

Tension will be high by the last weekend of the campaign. I expect some event that will be very challenging to everyone. This period will reflect past events of the mid-60’s. The events of this period will call out the generation born in that time to come to leadership. The voices of these people will call for many changes. Things that will benefit all the people will be the key issues, like health care and energy alternatives. We can expect a revolution of society to be the historical stamp of the 2008 election.

September 2008

In ancient times, eclipses presented important forecasting for the king and country. August 1 is the solar eclipse in the kingly sign of Leo and it happens to make important contact to the leader of our nation. The themes produced focus on communication and power. Secrets and surveillance are the secondary elements of this theme as they relate to Mr. Bush. On July 10, Mr. Bush signed a bill into law that allows the government the right to look and listen without regulation and restriction. This administrative action spurred an immediate filing of a legal challenge to the constitutionality of the law by a group of highly respected journalist. August and September will progressively be building the public pressure around this issue.

A common theme in the pair of eclipses, solar and lunar, ignites the ideals that most Americans are prideful of: freedom of speech. The eclipse pattern brings bright attention to the range of potentialities people are likely to experience should it be so that every word on phone or email, or even spoken in groups comes under threat of government ears.

By the lunar eclipse August 16, momentum will be gathering among influential journalists and progressive business leaders led by some of the dissenting political leaders. We will see this as a turning point in the presidential campaign. The high side is that people are beginning to pay more attention to the process and to the rhetoric. Strong ideals will fuel demonstrations and a new social movement is about to birth itself.

Depending on the outcomes of the political conventions, we may see activism in America like the mid-‘60’s. The high side is that there are young voices speaking with wisdom that will have more impact than the traditional political players will expect. Peace, ecology, and consciousness are becoming ‘mainstream’ again. Green is the buzzword for awareness and caring. Virtues are coming into the conversation about the future of American and of the earth. We see growing evidence of the younger generations taking their places in politics and other influential positions, such as journalist who call out for truth and fair practices in business and in government.

Women of all ages are becoming more vocal and involved. September brings an active month of the feminine crusaders and activists. They bring attention to the growing economic issues that are falling hardest on low-income mothers, and the elderly. These problems are in the spotlight at the full moon, mid-month. They do not just cry out, the women are moving toward real and just action. They lead a revolution of rejuvenation in the community supporting each other and a new economy of mutual benefit.

When times press hardest on us we rally with new ideas, goals, and inventions. Inspiration is upon us. The next great idea, the next great gatherings that bring back the heart to the center of the people in sharing is on the horizon. August and September will give us awareness of what needs doing next.

July 2008

America celebrates 222 years of liberty and independence this year. This is a time to review our collective values. The economy is the barometer of collective social self worth. Many people are nervous about the current downward trend of markets. As July begins, we may face some dramatic economic changes. People are looking for new ways to solve their financial problems. In fact, we are all looking for ways to change many things about our lives. The time feels unsteady and we are unsure of the future. In many ways, our current trends correspond with similar periods of US history. We can learn from seeing the similarities of the themes and focusing our intent for the future.

Astrologically, 2008 is a step toward evolutionary social changes. The long step to connecting with our past is to see the similarity to certain patterns that occurred between 1762 to 1776. The events that pushed the colonists to stand up and take their power to be self-governing were largely economic. Colonists were well established and their growing population felt that they deserved self-governance and representation for their financial interests. This was the beginning of the American Revolution. The financial foundation of America was established during this period. People were innovative and became more socially unified because of their circumstances.

Two other periods of social change have cyclic contacts with current trends as well. One dramatic period of social change relative to current time was 1965-66, and the other less marked period is 1988. The mid-1960’s was the larger revolution of civil rights, the wasteful war in Viet Nam, and the seeds of the technological revolution. In the fall of 1987, we had the stock market crash of the internet stocks, “Black Monday.” By the summer of 1988, we had a 14-year low of unemployment. The themes that link all of these periods are human rights, economic struggle, and a demand for political changes. These periods each have dramatic astrological signatures that correlate to collective change based on universal principles. Later this year, begins another of these important geocosmic signatures that will stimulate evolutionary and revolutionary changes.

What we must do is be alert to the trends at the community level. Through July, the natural influence is to give time and loving energy to family and friends. It is natural to have more social gatherings and family playtime. During such events, we have the perfect opportunity to discuss and share our circumstances and build support. We can pool our experiences and brainstorm ways to work together for more security.

The energy is good for taking action, where we have had a very sluggish year for productivity. It is a good time to be strategic in our plans for the next few months. Early July has the perfect pairing of energies for having a vision of long-term goals and the motivation for discipline to restructure habits. Service projects are a great use of the energies this month. Cleaning, restoring, reorganizing will give a good feeling of accomplishment and clear the path for new activities. This energy lasts most of the month. The full moon on July 17 will emphasize the benefit of group energy and community focus.

By the last week of July, there is very high energy for peaceful actions. There could be an opportunity for resolutions in international relationships. In the year of so following the turning points I mention above, some very positive events led to peace agreements, new industry, and some improvement in the overall economic climate. Personal relationships are favored as well in this phase.

Sirius Star Talk- May 2008

Sound Money?

Sound Money?

As spring becomes evident across the northern hemisphere, the most pervasive topic is the challenge of economics in the Western world. The American dollar has been shrinking in value and the ripple effect is bringing undeniable attention to sustainability. Real changes in American values are going to mean personal sacrifices and general economic discipline.

The significant astrological factors that set out the themes of seasons and cycles for 2008 stimulate a disquieting alert for the spring and summer seasons. The series of earth changes, social and political changes make it difficult to continue practices of waste, pollution, and extravagance. Curbing urban pollution and reducing oil dependence go right along with changing personal eating habits, driving less and recycling everything. It all comes down to a reality crisis of how we have gone out of bounds with spending what we don’t have and consuming what we don’t need. The collapse of corporations is a symptom of our inflated and exaggerated way of life that grew up over the last thirty plus years. Our myopic, self-satisfying focus on increase has brought us to a phase of cycle, which will force simplification, moderation and a wider view of future possibilities.

May is the time of the Sun’s travel through the fixed sign of Taurus, and it is joined throughout the month with Venus near by. Venus is the planet that governs Taurus and is associated with beauty, love, and values. As Venus entered its own sign, it immediately gains strength. On April 30, for the seventh time since early September the prime rate has been reduced another fraction of a percent to support the general economy and keep the US dollar steady. While such actions help to maintain the banks, we might be concerned about the long-range potential of our economy.

Venus will be traveling under the Sun’s beams until early August. The fact that Venus is invisible to us is symbolic of the “backroom” management of everything to do with economics. The good thing for the month of May is that the potential for harmonious agreements is higher than it has been for months. We may actually see good conclusions to looming decisions that will effects sustainable agriculture on a global level.

Venus makes a temporary, but very positive uniting of the forces of necessity and the financial giants. Two slower moving planets are involved in the picture and their 36-year cycle is at a phase that supports the growth of power through large corporations. Their current cycle began in 2001 and gained through the power of fear as the marketing tool for war in the name of security. We are already seeing the super corporations like Halliburton standing outside national law. This advance of power through economic might is an important component to the powerful decisions that corporate moguls are making in early May. The picture of the US economy is tenuous.

The most conscious path for the coming months is to be aware of the simple ways that we not only save ourselves money, we also support the global family by being financially conservative. We need to return the resourceful thinking of the depression era; how to make more out of less. The Green Revolution has begun. May is the perfect time to start living like there is a tomorrow.

Sirius Star Talk- April 2008

March was a soggy, mushy month for getting any clear sense of direction. After the long period of so many planets in water signs, it will be good to get to dry ground in our thinking and decision-making. The quick planets are moving into Aries, the sign of Spring, and pioneering new things. Certainly, the energy is up for getting on with projects. April brings out the quick pace of life and may contribute to a bit of “hot-headedness” through the first half of the month. It is as if a challenge is hanging in the air. This could literally mean conflict and aggression. People are likely to take confrontations personally, because people tend to focus on themselves and the internal dialog in their heads. This is a good month to practice patience and active listening. 

The first half of April has the headlong energy of the ram, butting into anything in the path. The prime use of such energy is with a grain of caution and a truckload of planning. IF plans have been coming together for sometime over recent months, then it is going to feel projected very quickly into motion. A lot of action can happen in the short span of these first two weeks of April. Try to avoid impulsive starts to projects now, as they could be very short-lived. 

The New Moon has some action contacts to the USA chart and important links to President Bush’s horoscope. This lunar period holds high tension that could bring hidden matters out into the open. The rumblings of revolutionary attitudes are still at a relatively low level. The coming months will be building up even more tension right up to Election Day. The contacts in later April have an aggressive edge. 

Although we keep hoping to see accountability, it may be unrealistic to think there will be any real action by Congress. At this point, we can wonder why our Legislators have allowed the Presidency to extend beyond the Constitutional boundaries. With only 8 months and counting to the end of the term, we should all be hoping strongly to HAVE an election. The scenarios of the potential actions that this leader might ‘allow’ to occur are a bit scary. A new book by Stephen Alten, The Shell Game, just published at the end of January, 2008, plays with ideas tallied from actual events since 9-11 and makes this “cautionary tale” a must read for this pre-election period.  

April will be a highly charged month with increased stability later in the month. The Full Moon on April 20 has good action for business and financial growth. It could start the first period of financial improvement since last September. April will be like a sunny day, compared to the confusion and delusion of March. It is a good month to make new contacts, be pro-active to nurture good business relationships. When the trust factor is strengthened, there is better potential for lasting relationships. 

By May 3-5, the real machinery of business gets moving again. This ‘improvement’ is a temporary trend, but good for infusing some confidence in the economy for a little longer. Projects started around this time might have a slow start, there is good potential for long-range stability. Make the most of April and the beginning of May for personal intentions. There will not be a better time in all of 2008 for new ventures.
