The new moon in Pisces, normally a time of peace, love, and the planting the seeds for Spring. It is a time of earth renewal when the first scents and stirrings of Spring are so tantalizingly close. But, alas, many Americans feel we are a nation in distress.  What does the new moon portend    The first thing that stood out, jumped out, was trans Saturn 22 degrees Gemini conjunct/conjoined natal Mars at 21 degrees Gemini also being energized by trans Pluto 19 degrees Sagitarius and trans Neptune which is also squaring the U.S. natal Mars, all the red stuff! Text Box:  
So what does that all mean! 

 

Trans Saturn the restrictor, the show stopper, sitting on quite literally Mars, the march to war which is getting impetus from trans Pluto the Destroyer.  First and Seventh Houses, how we see ourselves as a country 1st House, and how the world nations perceive us 7th House. Gotta love it, trans Saturn is also forming a square to the US natal Neptune.  The U.S natal Neptune is in the Country’s 9th House, where dwells the Fifth Estate, the PRESS.  The cool analytical detachedness of Saturn in Gemini is squaring the US. Natal Neptune, this may jolt clear the fog of delusion which seems to have enveloped the Fifth Estate.  Geeze, CBS Anchor Dan Rather saying he trusted our government and president to be honest and tell the truth, hello Dan?  Remember Tricky Dick? 

  The Moon, is the people, you, me, the guy who cut you off on the freeway! Talk about energized!  The People, natal moon in the 3rd House in Aquarius, with what, trans Mercury and Uranus conjunct/conjoined! Uranus is finishing up its run of Aquarius, with the energy from both Uranus and Mercury amplifying, electrifying, shocking, the People, the moon.  Uranus is a harbinger of sudden events, this could also portend acts of terrorism involving communication, travel, commerce.  Mercury, Messenger of the Gods, how fast can information travel now?  

  The trans Sun square the Asc, the Sun represents the Government, Rulers, it is squaring the ASC or how we see ourselves as a Country.  Our Country’s self, a Nation divided by a stolen election, an usurper in the White House appointed President by a packed, I mean stacked Supreme Court, bribing or threatening other Nations to go along with us.  What really is the will of the American People?  Will they stop Bush in his bloodlust reach for world domination at the expense of innocent lives?  Will the People of America continue rising up to thwart the usurper in office?

  Another interesting note is Chiron in opposition to the U.S. natal Sun, (ruler, government).  According to Barbara Clow, in her book “Chiron Rainbow Bridge Between the Inner and Outer Planets”, ‘this is an intense dynamic not to be overlooked.  This is a life and death struggle where the only resolution is to move into maximum self expression in healing and spiritual practices’.  Hmm…sounds grandiose.  Brass tacks, seems to me, our whole ‘self’ as a Nation is at stake?   What is to become of us?

  What if, what if Georgie boy doesn’t back off? What if, he goes forward with his crusade, alone with is coalition of the Willing, only to find his way physically blocked by Russia, France, China, and the 121 nations of the Unwilling?  Is George going to shoot them too?  Is George Bush going to be allowed to continue to disrupt a world wide economy and prosperity for his vendetta, and lust for world domination?  Are we so arrogant as to think someone wouldn’t say, ‘okay it’s time to spank some American ass, and put them back in their place, they are a danger to world stability, more so than Saddam Hussein and Osama Bin Laden together…?  The American people have lost control of their government.’   Are ‘we’ then going to launch nukes at everyone who disagrees with Georgie boy?  Right, yeah right…someone somewhere in this failing government of ours must soon rise up against this mad rush to war, or we could very well be facing the armies of Russia, France, China and the Unwilling.   

  My take on the new moon, in Pisces, plant seeds of freedom, peace and prosperity.  Remember from whence we came, we are a people of all nations, (the bloodlines of France, Germany, England, Scotland, Ireland, Wales, Spain and the Navajo Nation run in my veins…I am an American).  Use the Mercury and Uranus energies compounded with the Will of the People the Moon, in the 3rd House of Communication in Aquarius, the Internet sign.  Let your voices be heard, maybe focus on,  say the Media moguls, their reporters, anchors, provide them the ammunition to make their case, 9th House 5th Estate.  We are an enlightened society. Well some of us anyway, use that enlightenment for world peace and the betterment of all mankind. 

  Sounds pretty airy fairy doesn’t it, if we don’t fight for peace, then someone else is going to use those energies for their own greed and world domination, and it will be at our (the Peoples) expense.   Not to mention, turning the tides of war when none say that it can be stopped.  I think we can, and I think the People of America know how to stand up against tyranny.  They just have to recognize it…small problem there.  Fifth Estate are you listening? 

  When we come out of this cosmic collision, let us hope it is for a better America and a better World and the peaceful disarmament of all violating countries…Israel are you paying attention?
