How many of us believe that the Conservative Right's Crusade to remake the face of the Middle-East in 'Our Image' ended with Iraq?  Raise your hands please.    You who raised your hands pay special attention.  It has only just begun.

	Wishful thinking aside, you have only to listen to the current Administration ratchet up their rhetoric in recent days directly confronting Syria and the whoohoo, "Axis of Evil" !  Bye bye Iran, bye bye North Korea, bye bye Syria bye bye.  The American Regime Machine marchs incessantly onward.  All those troops?  All that equipment?  We took all of that to Iraq for what, a three week training exercise?  And we have to spend HOW much to send it all home? Yeah right, not good use of money and materials.   This full moon is a doosie, whoa momma.  The transiting Moon and Sun form a Cardinal Cross to the US natal Pluto in Capricorn Rx. (retrograde backwards), and natal Mercury in Cancer.  Want more?  Add transiting Mars, it is kissing the U. S. natal Pluto and what do you get? Power, raw, primal unrestrained agressive destructive energy.  Tromp, tromp, tromp, tromp...tromp, tromp, tromp, tromp, nothing can stop this massive war machine, nothing.  There are no controls on this Adminstration and the God's of War, Death and Destruction.   Ah Cardinal, initiatory, beginnings.  Is this the beginning of U.S. Imperialism?  Or another step in the remaking of the image of the United States of America?    Buried in the midst of this power conflagration is an Air trine.  The significance of the planets, the Moon, Uranus, and Saturn despite it's beneficent sounding trine of positive flowing energy lurks the opposite, an equally destructive energy by the element of air, subtle it is, could it be MOAB - 'Mother of All Bombs', "Massive Ordinance Air Blast"?  These babies left American shores for the Middle-East on April 10th destination The Gulf.  Kaboom!  Compressed air within a square.  Bushco haven't used their new toy, yet.    Dishearteningly, I see this Full Moon as a continued march to the drums of war and destruction.  Iraq was an appetizer, yet to sate the ravenous desire of Bushco and his Coalition of the Witless, I mean Willing.  This the continuing quest to change the Middle-East and rid it of its Muslim Regimes of Satan aligned with the Great Whore of Babylon, to be liberated by the Law of Moses as given to their Christian Liberators, who by the way stand at the borders of Kuwait, with food, medicine, water,and for only the price of their conversion, renouncing their God.  Sounds insane doesn't it?  Are they mad or are they fundamentalist whackos I ask you?  Okay, okay what part of this isn't bad Piscean Age last gasps?  The great religions of the Piscean Age, their end must also come, which mind you, these Judeo-Christian/Muslim belief systems have been the bloodiest of religions during their two thousand year tenure.  We stand at the threshhold of the Aquarian Age, a new society, and a new evolved spirituality that is no longer divided by someones interpretation of 'GOD', and a Divine that does not require your blood to be shed in the name of all that is GOD.  This killing of people over GOD, over religion, this sacrifice of young women full with child to GOD and COUNTRY versus The Righteous Right, killing and maiming thousands of 'good people of ----' We are here to liberate you, so many of you must die. The BIG picture, the times are changing, when the blood bath is finished, all of these self serving religions will be finished as well.  How do you usher out a Religion?  Like this....needless blood shed.   We the People would be wise to take hold of what opportunities that are available to us to use at this pivitol juncture in the history of humanity.  The transiting Moon has just crossed the threshhold of the 11th House, where dwells the U.S. Senate and House of Representatives.  Libra balances, and in this phase brings a purifying of motives.  The People bringing pressure to bare upon their Senators and Congressional Representatives, who in turn must turn task master Saturn loose upon the occupant of the 10th House.  The People are marching in the streets, hundreds of thousands, they have not stopped, they grow (Uranus in Pisces).  It is up to the People to take the Uranian energy mixed with Piscean peace and crank it up through the Aquarian tool, the Internet as the new vehicle to spread the voice of change without bloodshed and needless maiming of children who will grow up to become Osama Bin Ladens.  The American Press is still hungover in it's delusions of inclusion in the ruling regime, $$$$$.  The Press is serving the greedy elite rich Right(eous) abandoning their journalistic integrity, their craft, and the American people.     In years past I would have said we are an enlightened society, well the polls indicate otherwise.  So this Full Moon bodes ill for all the world.  The massive might of collective anger and religious fanaticism have a focus, the Middle-East.   One question, where are the weapons of mass destruction?  We have them, we are them.     This coming May Day the veils between the worlds are as thin as at Samhain, take heed.   May Day astrology coming soon.
