     As many of you know ~  i respect and admire Patricia   Cota-Robles.   I discovered Patricia
       over 20 years ago.       I have been on her email list;  hard copy list;   and whenever
       she has come to a city near me ~  i have ALWAYS  attended her seminars.
       I also,  always feel compelled to forward all her emails to everyone. . .

     Patricia is the  real-deal.   She is Kind.  Authentic.  Very Connected to Source.
       All of her seminars  are  FREE.    She is the one person, i can consistently point
       to and say,  she understands Manifesting.      

      Her information is also  Spot  On.  

      Yesterday was the first time,  at the end of the day,  there were just a few people
      around her.  My first opportunity   to say Hello !       She of course, saw me walking
      towards her  and i noticed the Light in Her Eyes Changed.   I said,
      Patricia  Cota-Robles,  I greatly admire you and have followed you for over 20 years.

      She put her hands on my face, and she said  -  "No.  You, have always walked beside me."
     
      I instantly started to cry.       just like now -  reliving my wonderful moment. . .

      She gave me a big hug and said,  "You have made a difference, too..."

      i heard the universe whisper,  she sees You - just like you see Her. . .

     Merriman  -  Forecast  Overview Next 2 Years

10/19/2014

0 Comments

 

   
Short-Term Geocosmics and Longer-Term Thoughts   
        First, Mercury will end its retrograde motion later this week, on October 25.
        This was an important Mercury retrograde cycle, because it began with the Sun
        in an air  sign (Libra), and Mercury started in a water sign (Scorpio) but ended
         in air (Libra). The last   time that happened was October 11 – November 1, 2007.
        You may remember  October 11, 2007 was the all-time high for the Dow Jones
        industrial Average, after which it    “crashed”   for the next 17 months.

        The time before that  ~  was the back-to-back series of Mercury retrogrades in October-   
           November 2000 and February 2001. Before that, it was in February, June, and
        October 1994. And before that, it was in October 1987. You can see that it is a seven-year
         cycle. You can also see that it has coincided with banking and financial crises.
   
       The retrograde Mercury instances in 2015 (three of them) will all start and end with Mercury
         in an air sign. The last time that happened was the three instances in 2008. Does this
         ring any bells? Well, yes, because 2008 was when the Cardinal Climax began, and
        in 2015, it will end for the most part. Thus, we can look at the entire Cardinal Climax
        period as having occurred with the air-air-segment of the 7-year Mercury retrograde
         cycle.

           What does it mean when Mercury begins and ends in air signs in such a series?
   
  •         The heavy emphasis on air highlights the principle of intellect, fast thinking.
  •         However, the thinking that takes place in air is often conceptual or theoretical, and not         based on any experience or “common sense.”
  •          Hence, decisions are often made that sound “smart,” or “intelligent,” but in reality,             they either work remarkably well or fail miserably. 

        I am more optimistic about the next seven years than the last seven years, however,
        because the Sun will be in an earth sign at the start of the last two Mercury retrograde
        transits in 2015. Earth signs represent practicality and experience, a sign of maturity.  
           Although ideas will still be quite intellectual and conceptual, at least they will be
        integrated with common sense.

        With all air and no earth, everything is an “experiment” based on theories. That was
       the political and economic/banking climate for the 7-year Cardinal Climax.

        In 2015, it switches to giving more importance to new policies that have some
        historical basis for working, and not just an abstract theory that it “should work”
        across the board. In any event, this will be one of the themes of the
        Forecast 2015 Book.

       Another subject to be discussed in the Forecast 2015 Book will be the indications
        of a worldwide epidemic, such as the Ebola virus. This is a current concern,
        of course, as new cases are rapidly being reported, even in the USA.
  • In the study of astrology, disease and epidemics are governed by Neptune.
  • When Saturn is present, it attacks the immune system.
  • When Pluto is involved, it can be life threatening.
  • It takes some probing, but there are astrological indicators present and
    forthcoming that warns of potential danger, and the need to be very careful
    over the next 1-2 years.

       First, Neptune is in its ruling sign of Pisces.

        In the chart that I now prefer for the United States (July 2, 1776, 11:50 AM,
        Philadelphia, PA), Neptune is actually crossing the sixth house, which is the
        house of health. 
        This chart was discussed in great detail at the recent ISAR conference in the
        speech titled “America at the Crossroads: Will It Survive, Perish, or Transform?”
        (http://www.mmacycles.com/catalogue/multimedia/american-at-the-crossroads%3a-will-it-survive,-perish-or-transform?/).
        Neptune will be in the sixth house of this USA chart for the next 14 years, so the
        nation is vulnerable to an epidemic or diseases. The last time Neptune was
         in this position (1848-1853), there was a Cholera pandemic in the USA,
        followed by yellow fever (www.infoplease.com).  


       Beyond that, we have to look at the “charged degree” of the zodiac in which the
        492-year Neptune-Pluto planetary-pair cycle
(conjunction) took place in
        1892-1893 at 6-8° Gemini.

        Transiting Neptune is now in waning square to this point for the next year.
  • It was in the waxing square to this degree segment in 1931-1933,
    the Great Depression 
  • and in opposition 1973-1975.
    Oil Embargo leading to a serious economic recession).
        Big things happened in the USA during those two periods (the Great Depression
        and the Oil Embargo leading to a serious economic recession).
        However, Neptune was not on the USA house of health then via this rectified chart,
        as it is now.          Still, it warns of potential economic problems as it did in these
        previous two passages of hard aspect.


       And finally (well, not really finally, as I am sure other astrological researchers will
        discover and point out additional correlations),

        Saturn is approaching its waning square to Neptune.
  • They become square by sign to one another after Saturn enters Sagittarius on December 23, 2014.
  • They make their actual square aspect three times between November 26, 2015 and September 10, 2016.
        This would represent the cosmic “peak” of a collective weakness, whether physical or                 psychological. However, it need not manifest as an epidemic or health crisis,
        although it may. Furthermore, it may not manifest exactly at that time. Aspects
        with orbital cycles this long between instances can have an orb of influence
        for up to 1-2 years.
  
        The bottom line is this: the possibility of a pandemic or epidemic of a health
        crisis is possible, given the geocosmic signatures in effect now and over
        the next two years. It could pertain to the Ebola virus. It would be wise to
         take extra safety precautions during this period. 

        However, the principles of astrology can manifest in a multitude of life
        experiences, and this aspect is not relegated to just the health realm.
  • Saturn and Neptune in hard aspect, for instance, can relate to a political scandal accompanied by lies and/or cover-ups.
  • It can also relate to an economic misjudgment by central banks that lead to financial turmoil,
  • an oil spill causing an environmental crisis (or some other oil-related crisis, for Neptune rules oil).
    Neptune  also rules:    [remember one side of pitch fork is lazer clarity - the other, Fog.]
  •  the sea,
  • all bodily fluids,
  • and critical miscalculations based on inaccurate data or intentional deceit.

On the higher plane,
  • it can also represent a deep knowledge of spiritual law and the wish to act with complete integrity and virtue.
  • It is the principle of karma – the manifestation and consequences of one’s intentions.
  • It is a time when we are apt to witness great examples of honor – and unfortunately, dishonor as well - by leading figures on the world stage.

        Up-and-Down Week Ends for Market With Another Loss

        Investors avoided another roller coaster day on Wall Street Friday.

        What they got instead was a steady, moderate decline that left the market with its worst weekly
        performance since May 2012.


        Technology shares were especially hard-hit. Semiconductor makers slumped after Microchip Technology             cut its sales forecast for the quarter and warned investors to expect bad news from others in the sector.

        The decline capped a week of turbulence in the market brought on by renewed fears that economic
        growth in Europe could be slowing.

        On Wednesday, the Dow Jones industrial average recorded its biggest gain of the year.

         The next day, it plunged 334 points, its steepest decline of the year.

        Germany, which has been the economic powerhouse for Europe, reported on Thursday its
        biggest monthly drop in exports in five years. In addition, the International Monetary Fund
        downgraded its outlook for global economic growth.

        Meanwhile, some traders are interpreting the decline in oil prices as further indication that
        growth is slowing.

        "You put those three factors together and it has investors nervous at the health of the world economy,"
        said Jeff Kravetz, regional investment director at U.S. Bank Wealth Management.

            El Niño predicted to start in four to eight weeks
           

            Friday, October 10, 2014, 4:32 PM - El Niño is forecast to begin in the next 1-2 months and
            last into the spring of 2015 in the Northern Hemisphere, according to a Thursday statement
            released by the National Atmospheric Oceanic Administration (NOAA). 
  
                  link  to  article:



        The weather event has been making headlines months, despite the fact that meteorologists now
        predict this year's El Niño  will be 'weak' in nature.

        "Most models predict El Niño  to develop during October-December 2014 and to continue into
         early 2015," NOAA's Climate Prediction Center said in its Thursday statement.

        "The consensus of forecasters is a 2-in-3 chance of El Niño  during the November 2014-January 2015
         season. This El Niño  will likely remain weak ... throughout its duration."

        The most current models differ from predictions made earlier in the year, when some predicted
         we could see a strong El Niño, similar to the one observed in 1997-1998.

   35,000  Walrus  Come  Ashore  Alaska as Sea Ice Retreats

10/12/2014

0 Comments

 
   
    
        They say a picture is worth a thousand words, but these images tell the story of a thousand climate studies.

        The images above show 35,000 Pacific walrus, all looking for a place to rest. They usually rest on
        Arctic ice.   In these  photos, they're all coming ashore in Alaska because there isn't any ice to be found.

       
        The photos were taken during NOAA's annual Arctic marine mammal aerial survey, spokeswoman
        Julie Speegle told  the Associated Press. Walrus are coming ashore in record numbers, the report adds,
         because they can't find sea ice  on which to rest.

        Experts say the phenomenon is directly related to the loss of sea ice in the Arctic, the AP also noted.

        "We are witnessing a slow-motion catastrophe in the Arctic," Lou Leonard, vice president for climate
         change at the       World Wildlife Fund, said in a statement that was reported by CNN. "As this ice
        dwindles, the Arctic will experience  some of the most dramatic changes our generation has ever
         witnessed. This loss will impact the annual migration of   wildlife through the region, threaten the
        long-term health of walrus and polar bear populations, and change the lives of  those who rely
         on the Arctic ecosystem for their way of life."

        The National Snow and Ice Data Center reported Arctic ice coverage reached its lowest point of the
        summer
on Sept. 17, and sea ice extent will gradually build in the coming months. This year's sea
         ice coverage in the Arctic was the  sixth-lowest since records began in 1979, the report added.

     What  is  a  Empath?    And - Are  you  One ? ? ? 

10/9/2014

0 Comments

 



        QUESTIONS:
          

        Have you ever wondered why people who are strangers or people you hardly know open up to you and
         share their most  trusted thoughts?
         Do you have an instant connection with animals?
        Are you unable to  watch violence, cruelty, or tragedy on television or in the movies because
            your soul just can’t bear it?
        Do  you have an instant knowing about the character of the people you meet upon first meeting them?
        Are you highly spiritual and find the physical world and everything in it heavy?
        Are you often tired and have physical ailments that cannot be medically explained?
         If you  answered, “yes” to any of these questions you may be an “empath.    "

        Empaths are people who are highly sensitive to the energy and the emotions of the people, animals, and
         sometimes   even the spiritual imprints that exist around them. Some are even sensitive to the energy
        of plants
. This extreme  sensitivity applies to the familiar as well as the unfamiliar; people we are
        intimately close with and total strangers.
        We experience the world around us and feel what other people are feeling through our extraordinarily
        heightened  senses and keen intuitions.     We often internalize the feelings of others without being
         aware we are doing it and  interpret those feelings as being our own.


        Just as with every other healthy minded individual, empaths have the ability to empathize with whom
        they are interacting. We are able to relate to how others feel and understand what they are experiencing.         What sets empaths apart is our higher-than-average level of empathy, the ease at which we can connect to         the feelings of others, and the range within which we can do it. And where others experience feelings of             empathy that are cued by interacting with others, empaths do not always. We do not have to rely on the             physical senses of sight, hearing, or touch, or clues from our interactions with others, to pick up on the                 emotions and energies around us. We can feel and internalize emotions from people near and far.

        Empaths are avid seekers of solutions, answers, and knowledge. We are deep thinkers and studiers.
            Believers that there is a solution for every problem, and uncomfortable and frustrated until we find it,             empaths will tirelessly search until they are satisfied. Those who are spiritually connected will ask God or             the universe for guidance and answers. Our gift allows us to tap into the spiritual realm and tune into its             energies. We frequently experience synchronicities, phenomena that occur in everyone’s life, but because
         we are more connected than most people to the supernatural world we more easily recognize these  
        coincidences as signposts of guidance.

        Empaths have great interest in metaphysics. Likely having experienced paranormal experiences of our
        own, whether it be near death experiences, out of body experiences, psychic ability, or a connection with         those who have crossed over to the other side, we easily incorporate this unseen reality into our physical             experience without question. We naturally know that these things are so without requiring any rational                 explanation.


        With a natural ability to tap into Universal energy and heal others, empaths tend to gravitate toward
        work in the fields of holistic therapies and energy work.  Our sensitivity allows us to feel the emotions
         of others, influence their bodies and minds, and create harmony within them. In order to do that,
        empaths must learn ways to keep the energy of others from becoming their own.  Otherwise the
         balance and harmony we create in others will cause unbalance and disharmony within us.

          Drug  Pricing  Makes   Americans  Patsies

Drug pricing here makes Americans into patsies

Read more at http://www.philly.com/philly/blogs/healthcare/Drug-pricing-here-makes-Americans-into-patsies.html#6rw9436j8cGF5Ri5.99


An analyst at Seeking Alpha recently wrote that U.S. drug pricing should encourage the rest of the world to call us, "The United States of Saps."  He supported this disparaging view by citing an article in The Economist to show how drug pricing in the U.S. exploits the public here compared to residents of other developed nations.  The U.S. government won't use its purchasing power and the implied threat of compulsory licensing (i.e., breaking patents) to negotiate prices and that means consumers and taxpayers here, in effect, subsidize drug purchases in other countries. 

The loudest ruckus over outrageous U.S. drug pricing at present concerns Sovaldi, a medication developed by Gilead for hepatitis C.  Sovaldi represents a genuine breakthrough for the standard of care in hep C but, to their shame, Gilead decided to charge $84,000 for the 12-week course of treatment, the equivalent of $1,000 per pill. 

Insurers and pharmacy benefit managers have berated Gilead for its pricing, but pharma always has its flatterers and jackals who try to justify its behavior, no matter how outrageous.  One writer who seeks to perform this task for Sovaldi is Dr. John LaMattina, a regular contributor to Forbes who used to head R&D at Pfizer.  When LaMattina sticks to matters of R&D management of the sort he conducted at Pfizer, he often provides useful insights.  When it comes to matters of public policy, on the other hand, he is typically wrong, wrong and wrong.

That assessment definitely applies to the three arguments he makes in defense of Gilead's pricing for Sovaldi.  His first point is that Sovaldi pricing isn't so onerous because the Veterans Administration was able to negotiate a reduction to the $84,000 price, down to $47,000 per patient, a figure that's even lower than the prices Canada, Germany and the UK were able to obtain.  Although LaMattina's figures are accurate, the fact remains that the VA's deal only covers veterans, not the hundreds of thousands of non-vets who are hep C positive.  Moreover, the VA was able to obtain its favorable pricing because the law allows it to use its purchasing power to bargain prices, a capability explicitly denied to Medicare.

LaMattina next makes the point that by the end of this year or early in 2015, it's very likely there will be equally effective medications available from AbbVie and Merck to compete against Sovaldi.  In his view this competition will drive down prices. 

While markets are supposed to work that way, pharma doesn't.  For the vast majority of products and product categories, pharma has been able to maintain a pricing cartel.  Price competition remains limited to marginal differences.  Responding to LaMattina's claim, blogger Corey Nahman -- a self-described pharma loyalist -- wrote:

"Look to insulins or DDP4's (two classes of drug with no generic) for a model.  The prices are very close.   AbbVie is not going to sell it's medicine for $500 a pill when Sovaldi gets $1,000 per pill.  $950 per pill or $975 per pill sounds more realistic."

LaMattina's third reason for optimism comes from his belief that physicians are starting to constrain pricing.  He cites the example of Sanofi's Zaltrap, a cancer medication that oncologists at Memorial Sloan-Kettering refused to put on formulary because of its high price.  Sanofi responded to this boycott action by cutting the Zaltrap price in half.  

If the case of Zaltrap and Sloan-Kettering represented the general rule or even a rising trend, then perhaps LaMattina might have a point and it would offer some encouragement.  The fact is that Zaltrap was an isolated incident and, in no way, does it offer a precedent for something like Sovaldi.  For starters, the oncologists were able to rely on Sanofi's own clinical data to see that Zaltrap was no better than existing, less expensive medications.  That enabled them to shun the new product and still offer their patients alternatives that were equally effective.  On the other hand, nothing will be available to treat hep C as well as Sovaldi until competitors are approved.   

Aside from Zaltrap, LaMattina and other Dr. Panglosses would have a real problem citing cases where providers forced substantial price reductions.

The exorbitant pricing of medications is one of those things that don't really affect most people until something unexpected occurs.  Then those enormous prices disrupt one's life.  In this respect the American public is even worse off now than it was thirty years ago.  As a West Chester health care consultant wrote in a personal communication recently, "With exploding prices and high deductible health plans, consumers now stand a real risk of going into major medical debt and even bankruptcy if they run into just moderately serious health problems. There wasn't as much risk of that thirty or forty years ago."

If prices for brand name drugs, doctor visits, hospital stays and almost any other health care product or service are 30%-50% higher in the U.S. than anywhere else in the developed world, then the question is why this is so?

The answer is that the health plans and employers—the people who are supposed to be looking out for average consumers—have basically been asleep at the switch for several decades.  Then too, the fact that they're also a fragmented bunch, rather than a national health ministry, means the lack of unity gives providers and manufacturers the upper hand.  So while the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS), the federal agency that runs those two programs, does a halfway decent job of managing prices for Medicare patients, CMS is completely hamstrung at controlling utilization as a result of rules enacted at organized medicine's behest.  

Despite a lot of really slick PR about "patient centered care," there's really no one to actually give a damn about patients.  Once again, a study published last week showed the U.S. health care system ranks last among eleven western, industrialized nations, despite spending far more per capita (see here).  In what's supposed to be a republic, that means Americans have to take the initiative by electing people who will fix a thoroughly dysfunctional system.  Health care is just too important to remain in the hands of people who have profited from it, at everyone else's peril.

Cancer  Docs  Join  Insurers  in  US Drug-Cost  Revolt

        Cancer Doctors Join Insurers in U.S. Drug-Cost Revolt

       

        The backlash over surging drug prices is starting to take hold.

        With the average cost of branded cancer drugs doubling over the past decade to about
        $10,000 per month in the US      ~   doctors, insurers and politicians are all moving in
        different ways to pressure drugmakers on pricing.

        Global spending on cancer drugs alone rose 28 percent to $91 billion in 2013 from
         $71 billion in 2008, according to a  report by the IMS Institute for Healthcare Informatics,
        the group that also reported the monthly cost rise.

        Those findings support a Bloomberg review of drug prices reported on May 1 that
        found dozens of medicines for     ailments ranging from cancer to multiple sclerosis,
        diabetes and high cholesterol have doubled or more in price since late 2007. The
        Bloomberg review used data supplied by DRX, a Los Angeles-based company that
        provides drug  comparison information.

        Increases among cancer drugs come about in two ways, through price boosts
        on older cancer pills, as well as a rising  ceiling for medicines newly on the market.

        “We are looking at a drug pricing bubble,” said Leonard Saltz, chief of the
        gastrointestinal oncology service at Memorial   Sloan Kettering Cancer Center, who in
        2012 led a rebellion at his hospital against an expensive cancer drug, re
fusing to  
       put it on the formulary because of its price. “At what point do we say this is  
           more than society can afford?”

        Sanofi Halves Price of Cancer Drug Zaltrap After Sloan-Kettering Rejection


            By ANDREW POLLACK Published: November 8, 2012
               

        In an unusual move, a big drug company said on Thursday that it would effectively cut in half the price of a             new cancer drug after a leading cancer center said it would not use the drug because it was too expensive.

           

        The move — announced by Sanofi for the colon cancer drug Zaltrap — could be a sign of resistance to the                 unfettered increase in the prices of cancer drugs, some of which cost more than $100,000 a year and increase         survival by a few months at best.

         Zaltrap came to market in August at a price of about $11,000 a month. Soon after,
        Memorial Sloan-Kettering Cancer Center in New York decided not to use the drug, saying it was twice as
        expensive but no more effective than a similar medicine, Avastin from Genentech.    Both drugs improved
        median survival by 1.4 months, doctors there said.

     The  War  on  the  Islamic  State  is  a  Lie

10/6/2014

0 Comments

 
       
        On September 24, 2014, the United Nations passed a resolution paving the way to open-ended “anti-terror”             warfare against the Islamic State (IS), the “network of death”, promising a war that will “last for years”.  

        The “war on the Islamic State” is a lie. It is the same fetid Big Lie that is the “war on terrorism”, reheated and         updated with new, bloodier special effects, new propaganda, a familiar but revised cast of demonic villains and         a new military attack calendar. 

        But it is the same lie, built on the same propaganda cornerstones: the myth of the “outside enemy”, the threat         of “Islamic terror”, eternal pretexts to galvanize public opinion behind an Anglo-American agenda of conquest         and war that will never end. It is the same lie, founded upon the idea that “Islamic terrorists” are enemies of         the West, when, in amply documented fact, these terrorists are the West’s finest foot soldiers and military-
        intelligence assets.

        The Islamic State, like Al-Qaeda and all entities that comprise the “Islamic Jihad” is a creation of the CIA             and Anglo-American intelligence (Pakistan’s ISI, Saudi intelligence, British MI6, the Israeli Mossad, etc.).             The various jihadist militias and military-intelligence assets and fronts—IS, Al-Qaeda, Al-Nusrah, etc. are              “American made”,  openly supported and utilized by the United States and its allies, as they have been             continuously from the Cold War to this very second. These forces are carefully manipulated and guided             weapons for US-NATO. Terrorists are instrumental to the ongoing US-led covert and overt operations in                 Syria.  Terrorists run by the US and CIA destabilized and toppled Libya, are integral to coming regime                 changes.  Under both direct and indirect orders of US-NATO sponsors and handlers, these “demon hordes”         are, and will continue to be, the leading military-intelligence assets behind every major geostrategic action         in the region.


        So-called liberals and progressives also back action against the Islamic State. The few who have any                 inkling that Islamic terror is a product of the US war machine wind up wringing their sweaty hands over the         red herring of “blowback”: the tired idea that the US created but lost control of a Jihadist force that it now         must contain. It is bogus. These militias are the American empire’s key foot soldiers and operatives, the             leading force behind plans to topple Syria, just as they were in Libya. This is not blowback, but a well                 orchestrated military-intelligence operation, cloaked beneath a criminal conspiracy that is maintained by             an ironclad elite consensus.

        Islamic terrorism “stops” the minute that its sponsors at CIA, MI, ISI, etc. stop using it. The war itself stops             when the elites who have planned this Final Solution to seize control of the last remaining oil supplies on the planet—the very life blood of the Anglo-American empire—stop, and give up their war of conquest and greed.  The entire apparatus collapses. But this will not happen in this lifetime. Not even in the event of planetary calamity.

                My personal notes to further explain will be in Green...



          
   It looks like another wild week coming up.
            Sanity and rationalism may be in short supply.
            These are signatures     conducive for collective hysteria.

            These are also signatures indicative of:

                 earthqaukes,
                violent storms,
                acts of terrorism,
                computer hacking, malfunctions, and cyber madness.
                Use safety features and be cautious when logging onto the internet.
                They are out there, and they are looking for you. Sometimes it is better to be a moving target
                        rather than a sitting duck, or even a lame duck.


            This lunar eclipse T-square falls on the natal USA Sun square Saturn. 
[signature for
                bravado, bully
  behavior,  saber rattling,   you get the pic as to how USA will be acting.                      This aspect is  to the country not personally to Prez. O..  ..  .. ]


            This lunar eclipse T-square also falls on Vladimir Putin’s Sun-Uranus square.
[ This aspect  is
                    to the Human Person, Vladimir Putin.    different than to the country...    How will the
                    human
  hndle this?    Hopefully,  he has a terrific personal astrologer 
                    providing insight     :~)   ]


             I don’t know who is the duck and who is the target,
                    but it would be best if the two leaders would talk to one another
                    before taking any action that might offend the other.


           
[personal question from me:  Where is John Kerry & the State Dept. in all of this ?????]


   
Astro  Aspects for the Astrologers:


        Our focus this week is on the lunar eclipse of October 8.

        This is no ordinary lunar eclipse.

        The Moon in Aries will be conjunct Uranus (and the Sun in Libra will be in opposition) = 
        volatile aspect


        The eclipse with then find the Sun-Moon  Aspect forming a T-square with Pluto in Capricorn .

       
A T-Square means that there are 3 points that can be triggered and will cover a large area of
        the chart.   .    
            1.  There is the Sun Libra  opposite   Moon in Aries.   In USA Chart,  Aries is 4th House
                    or Home / Housing, Real Estate;  Concept of Security;    Agriculture;  
                    Boats, Cruise Ships, Ocean  Liners;   W E A T H E R....

                   Libra  is 10th House,  which is image  presented to Outer World.  Also  POLITICS ! ; 
                        Electricity ;  Gas  Co;,  Govt Agency & Programs;  IRS;   Law  Enforcement;  
                        Phone  Co.


             2.  NOW  Add,  The  Moon in Aries  is conjunct the powerful planet Uranus which is in
                        Aries.  4th House.


             3.  Pluto, the Planet of Transformation, is in Capricorn,  in the 2nd House.    which is
                    Square  Uranus and has been for some time.     Pluto in 2nd House  is 
                    USA  Banking;  OUR  Money / Bank Accounts;
                    also T-Bills, Notes and Bonds;           Art  [could be art heist someplace...]  

                So,  Houses,  2, 4 and 10   have Big Spotlights  on them.   


        And if the Eclipses are not enough,   we  throw  Mercury Retrograde into the Mix...  
        Mercury will turn retrograde, October 4-25. Mixed messages are likely from both political
        and economic leaders of the world.   
  Plus  mixed  messages from Chase about
            customer data.   uff. . .

                                                        Meaning:     Mercury Retrograde 
  • The meaning of Mercury retrograde is easy to understand if you think in terms of
         Mercury's symbolism. The  "winged messenger"   rules:
    • communication, 
    • travel, 
    • contracts, 
    • automobiles, 
    • ALL electronic equipment from TV's to I-Phones.  Now is not the time to switch from cable to satellite or vice versa. . .
    • All Computers and Software.   Now is NOT the time to install / upgrade software
    • and the written word.

    Mercury represents the power of the mind.  

    It is the trickster god because the mind is the slayer of the real!  You know how hard it is to keep your mind on one thing.  That is Mercury at work.     Mercury likes to flip the channels so to speak! 

    When this planet goes retrograde it's as if:
    •   someone is pulling the plug at random moments;
    • stealing the remote and demanding that you unplug! 
    • Of course we don't like to unplug. 
    • We like to keep on keeping on and get where we are going,   no matter what !

    The general Mercury retrograde story goes like this:

    • When Mercury is retrograde it's easy to miss the details;  
      • to misunderstand what was said; 
      • to misread what was written; 
      • to get the dates wrong 
      • or to forget to show up.

    This is why the common advise is to:
    • refrain from signing contracts, 
    • making major commitments 
    • or undertaking major new endeavors.  

    Still, life must go on, 
    • contracts must be signed, 
    • houses bought, 
    • marriages (heaven fore bid!) made; 
    • babies born and so forth. 
    By aligning ourselves with the retrograde energy we can move through this period with a minimum of misery,    and realize a  deepening of our connection to our  own soul  and Instinct/Intuition.. . .

    and some really funny stories if we keep our sense of humor. 



        Now we add the Eclipse / Scorpio/ Fire Trine/  etc  etc  etc

   

On Global Level  What Could This Mean:  

1)       While Merc Retrograde,  and the Eclipses are Happening and this is   the lead up to the U.S.A. election 
        
~  S  -P – I – N.       Unprecedented mud slinging;  lies;  tampering.   Chaos.

2)       There will be challenges to voting results.

3)       War.    Real attacks.  Pick a place.  Anyplace.     Drone Attacks.

4)       Some of the usual current  norm   ~  but  amped up.   Bigger saber  rattling.

5)       Problems with boats and ocean going vessels.   Maybe another cruise ship flu.

6)       Possibility of severe floods across the world.  

7)       Uff.   Currency  Battles.

8)        The possibility of a huge announcement of a medical breakthrough.  And.or Ebola now is USA.



In Day to Day  Life:

  1. NO   SURGERY.    NONE  of Any Kind.   NO  dental  Work either.     Re-schedule anything till a better energy.  The issues are twofold:   sharp knives+ blood  and  anesthesia ! ! !
  2. Stop all practical jokes.   Will NOT be well received.  The ol’ backfire 
  3. Start  ZERO   arguments even with Yourself..  ..  ..  . . 
  4. Stop  need  for  “Last  Word” 
  5. If you do find yourself in argument,  and you feel it gets  out of hand,  Leave the space.       
  6. Be  Very  Alert  while  Driving.   If you think full moon driving is crazy,  just wait for 5 planets in Scorpio.    Everyone will think they are Mario Andretti.      Suggest avoiding  Expressway's.
  7. Probably  more local  street / gang  violence.    Probably more SWAT activity – which now-a-days,  SWAT  is  out allot here in ABQ. 
  8. Be Alert & Cautious around all people who have a quick temper.   Now would be the wrong time to suggest Anger Management.
  9. Be Careful In Kitchen.  You,  Children,  House Mates.    Be ALERT while Cooking -  esp., sharp knife chopping veggies;   pots of boiling water.    Rule -  no heated discussion in Kitchen either.    Not even jesty heated.   Don’t talk politics either.   People can get seriously hurt in Kitchen so  Respect that the Kitchen Is the Most Nurturing Place in the Home because this is where we prepare our food.

    Mercury Retrograde    Details & Esoteric   Oct 2014

10/2/2014

    MERCURY RETROGRADE: The purpose of Mercury retrograde is to review and revise our life and our                     connection with reality. The timing of this universe is geared toward the Sun as it moves through the zodiac.     Mercury has an orbit that at times gets ahead of the Sun allowing us to look into the future toward new and    
    innovative ideas. However, we cannot continue in that vein until we come back to the present designated by     the Sun and put our new ideas into manifestation.

    During the time that Mercury jumps ahead, we ultimately   have to bring the ideas back into the
    present to test and evaluate to see how they fit into our life.        As Mercury retrogrades back into
    The Present, the connection with the Sun happens as we test drive our ideas and  re-align with reality
    and the natural timing of the universe.


    Mercury itself rules how we think.  
  •     we will be adjusting everything related to thoughts, concepts, ideas,
  •      and  communication, especially how technology and material elements play a part in
            the physical manifestation of     ideas.

    When Mercury retrogrades, we find that many parts of our life are being revised. Often these revisions  
   can be a surprise or throw us back a step.     However, these revisions which occur during a
    Mercury retrograde,     are a "course correction" and provide a stop gap measure until we can
    review situations.   

    During this time of revision, change is compounded and confusion is created by our reactions to the
     ever-changing situations.        Thus anything started during this time will ultimately be taken back
     or even revised further, making for a    high-frustration time. This will be especially true with
    changing our minds, reviewing new ideas and our communication being improved and honed
    so not to be mis-understood.


    The best mode to be in during a Mercury retrograde is one of "non-reaction".
     Treat the time  period as a time of gathering information, AND   because the information will
    be in constant change  ~  it would be     like trying to comb your hair in a wind storm.

    Best to wait until the changes stop before attempting to make things orderly.
    Therefore, just let the winds of situations blow around you without reacting. Once Mercury turns
     direct, take a look at the information that is still around at that time and go about putting everything in order,     while maintaining the fine art of flexibility.
          [rubber legs !   ]


    Mercury retrogrades have a cycle  in which the retrogrades have an exactness of covering the same signs,         the same degree   many years later  -  Like  today  in  2014 ! ! ! !   

    Mercury retrograde, with the seemingly chaotic and confusing situations we experience during the
        retrogrades,  may not really be so  chaotic and confusing..  ..  .. 


    The exact Mercury retrogrades we will experience in 2014 were the exact same signs, same
        degrees and approximately the same calendar days of 1935. This cycle is seldom talked about in the   
     astrology world, but is the cause of major course corrections for humanity. We can look back at history
    of 1935 to see the impact of Mercury retrogrades covering the same time frames, the same signs
    and the same degrees. We are coming to an important time as was experienced in 1935.

    Few people are old enough to recount the transition of that time, but it becomes history repeating
     itself to give us a chance to grow as humanity, as a society and to make a difference.

    The Planet of Mars also follows this same cycle and the sequence of Mars combining with
    Mercury's influence of ideas and attitudes and Mars brings these ideas and attitudes into action.
    The phrase "thoughts become things" certainly brings home the combined energy of these
    two planetary connections.


    The changes that occurred back in the days of 1935 bring us to a time when we are looking
    at the same issues. These issues are setting the stage for the important Mercury retrograde
    cycle that is also relevant to similarities in 1935. Uranus was square to Pluto, which occurred
     at the same time, and which is experienced now in 2013, 2014, and 2015. It is important to
    understand that the cosmic clock has the timing similarities that we see in the outside world.\
     Few realize the importance of correlating the statistics with events in the outside world
    to the cosmic clock of the magnetic pull of planetary movements.



    In 2014, Mercury retrogrades three times, all beginning in water element/ signs of Pisces,
    Cancer and Scorpio,    but retrograding back into air signs.  [in Oct back to Libra]

    Emotional issues have to be revised and updated to align more with our true inner essence,
     intuition and awareness;  which is the purpose of 
water element/ signs

    2014 is a SEVEN universal year, requiring that we come into understanding about our true inner
    status and becoming aware of the intuitive essence that is the foundation of our core concepts.
    7 as a year number is the battle between   Total  Trust  and  Show Me - the Doubters.

    Our feelings, listening to the calling of our heart through intuition and awareness,
    our inner connection to the Divine becomes the terrain that must be reviewed, revised
    and infused with spiritual growth, love and awareness. Mercury brings important information,
     which bubbles up to the surface as we accept the inner call to explore the inner aspects
    of our spiritual essence. The inner calling of our heart feels uncomfortable to some
     as there is a concept that it is depression or something is wrong rather than to understand
    that the inner call is through the feelings, perceptions of spiritual awareness and
    intuitive connections.

    The power to see and feel our true inner essence provides awareness of a larger world
     that exists inside that has access to all other worlds. The power of awareness allows us
     to make the inner connections and changes prompted by self realization and
    spiritual growth. These areas reflect the transitions that are happening within.
    Aligning the calling of our heart with changes of attitude and awareness is the theme
     for 2014 Mercury Retrogrades.

EARLY   ~  Prediction for Nov 2014 USA Election:   

10/2/2014

0 Comments

 
    
        Absentee Voting Begins in few days.  Early Voting begins mid-Oct.     
          ALL  of this happens  during Mercury Retro  and  between the
        2
powerful eclipses; not to mention all the energy in Scorpio;
        plus for few days at a time ~  fire grand trine which is  the
        political revolution / war we see globally.     REALLY  trust
        your instinct regarding  how to vote;  when to vote and in
        what location....   
       
        This means?

            ** Lost Ballots.   Slow Mail.    Printed material WRONG.
            **
Glitches in counting the early  ballots.   Problems w/voting machines.
      
                every county will be  updating voting software during Merc Retro & 
    
              that is a bad idea.  i know this from 30 years experience as a Software
Engineer.
            **  Ballot box lost?  [count on NM for this one.]

        There will be chaos across the country - probably not in all 50 states ~ 
        but,  who knows for sure? 

        We will have another "Karl Rove 30 min. melt down"   over results in many locations  brought on by                     Mercury Retro and not by something he & the Koch Brothers  Paid  For ! ! ! !  
            that makes me smile.     :~)


        Also -  i will be gathering with several local astrologers on Sat. 1 Nov,to review charts for Boehner,                     McConnell,  Washington, and of course NM.We will be looking for omens; signs; predictions.   
        We want to gather all the subtle data we can over Oct; because with the powerful Natural energy
        in the air;  which human man normally mis-reads;   it will be veryinteresting to watch Human Man
         and his Mis-Guided Power Plays.   

        Make House of Cards   look like a 1st Grade Primer.     

        ALSO:  If any of you; have a dream;  have an omen about this
                   period;   please share.     Don't hold back.   Also,
                   I find children - since they are not blocked -    are
                  seeing things,  offering insight - however, you want
                  to say this.   Pay attention to children.


Live and Act on your Instincts.   ALWAYS  Be  True  to  Yourself..  ..  Always  Keep   your sense of Humor

ECLIPSES :  Meaning  By  House  Pairs

10/1/2014

ECLIPSES   Meaning  By  House  Pairs

First and Seventh Houses


Themes: Identity crisis, loss of self, or deeper self-knowledge through relationship; singular self hood (self-image and personal goals) and the impact of being in a twosome; give and take, or out-of-balance; break-ups, periods of solo mia; going into partnership or marriage; self-promotion, relationship to "followers" or audience, or times of solo retreat from public eye.

An eclipse in the first house throws you back on the self. It might mean the end to an entanglement that's muddled your sense of self. Or merging lives with another, with any accompanying fears of losing the self. Something happens or there's insight to firm up the "I am" with self-defining acts, carriage, presentation or plans. A challenge of growth here is to nurture personal initiation and identity, in balance to the meaningful relationships in your life.

Eclipses in the seventh house beams on those relationships that weigh heavily on the sense of self. There can be upheavals in these big relationships, from emotional shocks or confrontations to deepening intimacy or a parting of the ways. A relationship can be wholly absorbing, until you realize you've lost your own defining edges. Some might awaken to the naked truth about what's been lost or gained, by being in cahoots with a particular close friend, lover or business associate. Who am I in this relationship? Who will I become if I become allies with so and so. What's being mirrored back to me, as I relate to this person or to the public?

Second and Eighth House

Themes: Natural talents -- developing or squandering them; self-sufficiency or financial dependence; living your values or "selling your soul;" contentment or crisis/drama; building up or tearing down; procreation (fertility) and decay, composting, clearing (death).

An eclipse in the second house hits on material realities -- money, what you own or owe, what you've built (symbolically) with your own two hands. A crisis here could shake you to the foundations, to do with finances, and possessions that you see as what makes you, you. It could set off an ordeal, where you're tested to stick with a soul's calling through hardships. There can be inner wrestling with how much to invest, and what's most important to achieve.

Eclipses in the eighth house are intense, and bring on soul searching. There can be events that take all we've got, and then some, to move through. Some might become aware of the heavy energetic price of debt, arrangements with strings attached or toxic entanglements. A catharsis might be due, to summon emotional courage, and transform your darkest fears into action. Being close to death is a possibility, with all the reflection the ultimate life passage brings. Other possibilities are banishing psychic or emotional vampires (or becoming aware of this in yourself); intensity around sex; meeting your or another person's dark side; leaving a controlling situation; opening to gifts in the shadows.

Third and Ninth House

Themes: being the student and/or teacher; questing for consciousness, experience and skills; getting credentials; acting on inspirations; readiness to expand horizons; apprenticeships, travel, urge to learn; filling gaps in knowledge.    Your car, computer or form of transportation could break down, communications get heated, and possible squabbles with siblings and neighbors may occur.   NEVER  Update  COMPUTER  Software!

Eclipses in the third house jolt the nervous system, and involve the networks you're plugged into. Something meaningful happens in the local 'hood, or in your snippet-fast everyday exchanges. Brothers, sisters, school mates and extended family could play roles. Or an eclipse could activate an urge to go back to school, or be trained in a new field.

An eclipse in the ninth house lures you out of the known, into the edge of your personal frontier. A path opens, and with a trust in the universe, you signal you're ready to grow beyond known borders. This can involve travel, a sabbatical or time as an exchange student. Your philosophy is altered, or you begin a course of study, not knowing how it'll change you.

Fourth and Tenth House

Themes: mother or father, or parenting; public sphere and home life; emotional roots and ancestral legacies; making your mark and having a home base; authority and nurturing;  balance between  Work  &  Home  Life.

You might decide what family really means to you. Where you live and your family will be in the spotlight, for better or for worse.    Eclipses in the fourth house brings attention to home life. A crisis here could bring you back to your roots, through tragedy or sense of responsibility. The forces that shaped your emotional body loom large, perhaps triggered by an event that calls it back.

An eclipse in the tenth house rouses dynamics of authority -- claiming it or giving it away. Events happen that challenge you to overcome emotional legacies that keep you from symbolically climbing that mountain. What happens here builds character, and could play out in a public way. A crisis could bring more attention to the home front. Or, it could jolt to action, a latent desire to find our place in the world, if we've been tending to the home fires.

Fifth and Eleventh House


Themes: experiencing being special or unique within a group of unique individuals; urge to be seen, admired, respected; friendship ups and downs; call to create/express yourself solo or in collaboration; a shift with a child or children; making a name as a headliner, or with allies; self-focused goals or going with flow of bigger circle.    desire to express creativity could suddenly come alive.

An eclipse in your fifth house revolves around what most revs your self of standing out and shining. It could be a wake up call to seize the day with your creative gifts.  The spark and color it awakens is what matters. Acknowledging the need for recognition, and setting out on a path to bring talents to fruition. An event that brings favorites to the fore -- perhaps turning what you love into your life's work. Shake-ups with children, a risk (gamble) or your heart.

If an eclipse falls in your 11th House - Your friendships and your reputation come sharply into focus during this eclipse. Friendships, group activities and what other people think will matter more as your reputation could be analyzed by others, for better or for worse.

Eclipses in the eleventh house have to do with extended friend networks -- colleagues and collaborators, near and far. Your attention is on these wider circles, with possible endings of some alliances, and seeking those more up-to-date. An eclipse here can bring a shock to your awareness, with new and "weird" information that'll take time to integrate. You might meet odd characters, or reveal your own strangest inclinations or fascinations. The genius is unleashed, or you experience more freedom to say and do what you like.

 

Sixth or Twelfth House


Themes: health crisis and healing; the spirit body and its intimacy with disease; living fully engaged and soul retrieval; soul resistance to growing and life-threatening illness; solitude and digesting experiences; getting worse before getting better; the minutia and the infinite; being busy or making time for productive dreaming; service to others or a sense of spiritual mission; synchronicity and everyday miraclesBe careful of accidents. Your daily routines could change suddenly. A health issue could come to your attention. On the flip side, you could find a daily routine that ultimately suits you better.

Eclipses in the sixth house is about tending to the earth suit, and finding a satisfying (and productive) rhythm. A crisis here alerts us to the body. Is your job missing something? Like, a sense of greater connection or purpose? It's mysterious how illness or an accident shakes us out of a deadening routine. The eclipse alert could be subtle or in-your-face, that somethings got to give. An eclipse here demands an integration, of the soul with work, for more soulful work.

If an eclipse falls in your 12th House -  Or The God Box =  Great spiritual insight or an event may cause one to seek a retreat and hide away from the world. Lots of Ahh-Haa  moments.  Loneliness and self imposed isolation may be present during this time. Alternatively, you could tap into your creativity and make a breakthrough in all areas ruled by the 12th House.

Eclipses in the twelfth house bring to the fore, the very real need to tend to that soul, day in and day out. Experiences now come in dreams or seemingly otherworldly happenings, as soul messages. One outcome of eclipses here is to become aware of something previously veiled. It could be behaviors that you show out there, in the workplace or relationships, that have been unconsciously playing out. A breakthrough can at first be humbling, but lead to being more real and physically present in your life.

    These are very interesting times.  Much of the Energy can be explained by Astrology.  Much can be explained because Many Humans are Asleep.   I want to track the Impact of the Planets to the Earth, The Water & Humans...
