An
Astrological View for the United States in 2009
The
Solstice, December 21, 2008 sets the stage for the next three months. At 8:03 AM
in Washington D.C., the Sun began its journey through the sign of Capricorn. And
at that moment a chart was born to outline the events that will occur in the
United States.
Though the
chart gives many details, they are a variety of pictures, which are expansive
when we speak of a nation. So do bear with me. To explain how expansive, I will
point out an event I predicted last year.
At that
time I saw fires in the summer. Nothing unusual about that you may say. So I
attempted to sift it down in location by using astrological mapping. I
determined one of the areas to be around Grants Pass, Oregon. Though I have been
far too busy to stay on top of this, this morning I opened the newspaper and
there they recapped the biggest events of the year in Oregon. Listed was a fire
that ravaged 95,000 around 60 miles northeast of Grants Pass last summer.
December
21, 2008 – March 19, 2009
America
socializes and celebrates
Feeling
good, looking good
The nation
is riveted on the economy, housing, income, the stock market, and the American
Dream.
Legal
issues of government and corporate lies, regarding money, embezzlement, and
possible collusion, make headlines and create stress.
There is a
rethinking of corporate legislation, due to stress in the markets. Talk of
breaking up corporate structures and government contracts.
There is a
type of revolution in motion, which began on Election Day, a revolution that
calls for thinking outside the box.
Despite
the tension and the stress, more money is being carefully released to the
people.
While
corporations and government factions, and legislators, legislation are
challenged by the homelessness, and by national associations regarding property
and the environment, mortgage opportunities and other monetary or joint resource
opportunities are made available to the people.
The focus
in this period is: our nation, our people, our war, our government, our markets,
our investments, our economy, our healing, and our lies, deceptions, and
misdeeds.
We will
revolutionize contracts, agreements and contacts. We are going to start a legal
process to clean house. We will be cleaning out international contracts,
import/export contacts, and any treaties we have will be revisited, removed or
rewritten.
This
period reinvents the way we think about government and legal process. We are
freeing ourselves of the old ways of thinking and this may also bring some kind
of revolution with the media.
During
this period the old ways of telling the news may be shattered. It appears many
communication media will move to electronic media, whether the web, cable,
podcast, or mp3, the news is going to start to really change.
Newspapers
as we know them will break out of their molds and some of the big established
papers will change the way they deliver the news.
The
transformation of the Presidency will bring good fortune to America.
During
these three months, people feel good. They are opposed to the war because it is
challenging their economy and their personal income.
There is a
re-examination of oil contracts, oil corporate profit, and there may be some
talk about legislation or government involvement needing to be created regarding
oil. It is only talk at this time, but it is very stressful talk.
This
period will emphasize changing the economy while cleaning out the moneychangers.
That is to say there is a clean up being done in the mortgage and credit, or
money industry.
Oil prices
continue to feel good.
More money
is available for homes and other investments such as reconstruction or
renovation.
It's a
period where the American people will be seen internationally as fair and
balanced, while we are also seen as a nation in debt due to overindulgence. We
are challenged by our international debts, challenged to remain diplomatic,
while reining in our over-expanded capitalism.
I have
never seen such a significant Presidential transformation chart in all these
years. If we were to follow the guidelines set by Ancient Astrologers, this
chart might signify an assassination, but I do not see it that way. I see this
as one of the most powerful transformations of a head of government. As thought
everything that the last president has believed will be turned upside down, or
completely transformed.
This new
government will challenge Americans to step up, take action, expand and focus on
the day-to- day work, or service of government. It's a period where Americans
will be challenged to take part, to serve, and to participate in their
government. What we have known in the past as the Octopus (the impossibility of
the ordinary American to have a say in their government) will be transformed
with this new presidency. Welcome to the twenty-first century!

March
20, 2009 – June 20, 2009
Getting
America back to work
Things dug
up from the past, must be re-examined, rebuilt, or destroyed
Where the
last period welcomed a new president, and the change that he would bring, this
period is all about transforming, digging out of the karmic past, and
resurrecting internationally through media, legislation, international treaties,
organizations, and balancing the issues of old agreements, by working out the
details of military decrease and shift. Additionally, there is the balancing of
national employment, and healthcare reform.
The
re-assessing of military plans, contracts, and international, religious issues
creates a lot of stress. The statement is, America will re-examine where she has
placed, or pledged her armies, while working to re-align, with international
cooperation, the original revolutionary dream of freedom.
We will
revisit the purpose of freedom, and re-focus, and re-establish international
alliances.
Now, the
Congress will begin the toss and tumble of ideas on national health care. This
does not resolve in this period. It is stressful, but there is also a kind of
hopeful attitude, despite the bean counters' depressing notes. There is
irritating, and frustrating talk about hospitals, drugs, and prisons. It seems
so much is focused here on the karmic issues. But the chart also shows the
American people finding opportunities to work through government.
The
America dream is struggling to come alive, and the people are pulling back their
sleeves, and are publicly getting ready to work toward the future they want.
This could easily symbolize a public works program, offering opportunities
through municipalities, as a result of government or legislation that passes.
There is a
significant transformation, taking place publicly in this chart. As though an
explosion is taking place, and it seems to be a very good one. Through it, there
is an opportunity for Americans to join resources with the new government,
through congressional resolve, to get relief from mortgages, judgments, taxes,
and creditors. It does not look free, but it is some kind of relief that offers
a new dream to those who take part. It may even offer a prison relief program
for drug users of some type.
There is
also a lot of grumbling going on, people do not seem near as friendly socially,
as they usually are. Though they want change, it is a challenge for some to
accept, and this appears to cause anger, and could explode in violence. The
timing appears to be during the first few days of April. This may prove to be
an economic challenge or, in my opinion, much worse, a challenge to American
values, and security. Whatever it is, it hits the American people directly, and
challenges their relationships with foreigners once more.
The
mortgage industry, is transforming at this time in a positive way. It appears
housing contracts are finally starting to flow again.
There is
stress in the arena of oil, and costs may be held down artificially through some
government action. But it is most likely increasing, since the tension is too
great.
International travel is stressful and definitely down, but local travel seems to
doing all right.

June 21,
2009 – September 21, 2009
Americans back to work.
We
experience stress, and depression, as we reorganize, and realign with the
American Dream.
The
President struggles to make change under the weight of heavy responsibilities,
which include: war, unemployment and the decreasing health of the nation.
An
opportunity to sign an international contract (treaty) is a balancing act for
the president. The treaty has to do with imports, exports, and trading in
international waters. It may involve petroleum, drugs, pharmaceuticals, fish,
and even piracy. It looks like it may be a way to heal wounded friendships.
There is public opposition or protest. It does not come from the people, but
from corporate groups, like: bankers, mortgage brokers, makers of explosive
materials, foreign investors, the congress, or may even come from a member of
his cabinet.
A
judgment, or public declaration from a judge, or Congress, calls for
re-organization or re-assessment of the housing market, causing fluctuation in
the economy.
The
American people are going back to work. There is a new sense of security, and
opportunity through government programs. Health care may be another area where
there is opportunity to work and make money.
There
is more spending going on during these three months, and the market is
stabilizing

September
22 - December 20, 2009
The economy is starting to move.
Government programs add jobs, and more health care.
Struggles
and stress with old corporate policies, government legislation, and foreign
wars. Employment issues challenge the American Dream, and the American image
internationally, while import and export business ventures, and inventions are
challenged.
Stress
over the reorganization of military, government, media, the stock market,
national investments, income, budget, banking, mortgage brokers, and tax codes.
Issues in all these areas, that have long been hidden, will now be exposed.
Despite
the tension, investment opportunities open up in foreign countries, and in the
fields of medical, surgical instruments, metals, and weaponry.
Change is
happening, the people can feel it, and there are more opportunities for
employment, and health.
A lovely
note in this chart is the good fortune that pours into the economy. The market
is tense and stressed but expanding, so there is good news that the national
gross income is improving.
The
housing market is being reorganized and propaganda, lies, and illusions are
being scrutinized. It seems the government meticulously is focusing on the
details. Though the housing market is still depressed, it seems they are
clearing the way to restructure it.
This
period emphasizes foreign relationships with known enemies. The struggle causes
sudden breaks in relationships, robbing Americans of their security, and forcing
an inventive approach to dealing with terrorists, or revolutionaries.
The people
are finding more opportunities for work, and the nation as a whole is more
buoyant, quietly learning to rip away the thinking of the past, welcoming new
venues of work, and overall empowering themselves.
The
President stands on the foundation of the Constitutional government, and
purposely works to clean up employment, military and healthcare problems. He is
holding the original vision of America's founding fathers, as filter to develop
the future.
There will
be sudden revelations, criticisms of enemies, government, and past deeds, that
will shake free, old, imprisoning ideas, and help break up old, fearful, thought
forms.
This is a
period of inventive healing. Arenas of overseas banking, international business,
technology, oil, foreign underground resources, and power agencies, like the KGB
or CIA, will be challenged by new tests of transparency.
All in all, this final period
of 2009, should bring America closer to her roots, and make Americans more
clearly aware of our international shortcomings.
