We know that when the lord of a quadrant combines with the lord of a trine a Rajayoga results. Or a mutual exchange between quadrant and a trine lords results in a Rajayoga. A Rajayoga is a very auspicious combination and its placement in a Kendra or a trine increases the value of a horoscope.
But after studying quite a good number of horoscopes it has been noticed that mutual exchange between the seventh and fifth lords is quite damaging considering married life and progeny. I will illustrate a few examples to trace my point.
Birth Chart No.1. Aries: Lagna; Cancer: the Moon; Leo: Venus, Mars and Ketu; Virgo: Saturn; Libra: the Sun and Mercury; Aquarius: Rahu; and Pisces: Jupiter.
This is the chart of a female native born on 22-10-51. She got married in May, 72 to an Engineer who was class I officer in Railways. Within a month after marriage, the native discovered that the husband was having extra-marital relations with two other ladies. On questioning the husband she got his severe beating and seeing the other ladies coming to her husband on and often made her life miserable. At last after two months she left the husband and went to her parents' place. After two years of separation, she got divorce from the court. Now in her horoscope, we see that the seventh lord Venus is in the fifth and fifth lord the Sun is in the seventh debilitated.
In addition to this, Venus the Karaka for marriage is spoiled by Mars and Ketu. These damaging factors shattered her married life.
Chart No.2. Gemini: Lagna, Rahu; Cancer: Saturn and Mars; Libra: Jupiter; Sagit: the Sun, Venus, Ketu and Mercury; Capricorn: the Moon.
This is the chart of a lady who suffered from abortions, miscarriages etc. for seven to eight times after the birth of first born daughter who is luring. Here also we see that there is a mutual exchange between the seventh and fifth lords, i.e. Jupiter and Venus.
Chart No.3. Cancer: Lagna; Scorpio: Saturn; Sagit: Ketu; Capricorn: Jupiter and Mars; Aquarius: Venus; Pisces: the Moon and Mercury; Aries: the Sun; Gemini: Rahu.
This is the chart of a lady who gave birth to two children, but both died within one week or so after their birth. The native suffered from menstrual trouble and had many abortions also. Here also there is a mutual exchange between the fifth and seventh lords, i.e. Mars and Saturn.
Chart No.4. Libra: Lagna, Rahu; Scorpio: the Sun, Venus and Mercury; Capricorn: the Moon; Aquarius: Mars; Pisces: Jupiter; Aries: Saturn and Ketu.
This is the chart of a native who is unmarried even at the age of forty years. Here we see that there is a mutual exchange between the fifth and seventh lords, i.e. Saturn and Mars. In addition, Rahu-Ketu axis is in seventh houses.
Chart No.5. Virgo: Lagna, the Moon; Scorpio: Rahu, Mars; Capricorn: Jupiter; Pisces: Saturn; Taurus: Venus and Ketu; Gemini: the Sun and Mercury.
This female native got married at a very late stage, i.e. at the age of thirty years. But it has been reported that domestic happiness is totally lacking due to some unknown reasons. Here also there is a mutual exchange between seventh and fifth lords, i.e. Jupiter and Saturn. Also Venus is spoiled by Mars and Ketu.
Therefore we see that even though mutual exchange between seventh and fifth lords results in a Rajayoga according to Astro-Science, its effects are damaging considering married life and progeny.

STARGAZING - YOUR WEEKLY FORECAST
Week of June 17th - June 23rd, 2013
These next few days will bring slow money, fast-talking, and lots of love! And just what's ahead exactly as we enter summer with the Summer Solstice? Life is a beautiful balancing act this week! Your home and work lives will both need extra attention from you now. A sudden emotional outburst can be shocking if we are trying to avoid a difficult situation. Erratic Uranus continues to upset our lives, but it's easier to integrate unexpected behavior today because of an energetic Mars-Uranus aspect. Nevertheless, our thinking may be fuzzy because Messenger Mercury forms an anxious aspect with nebulous Neptune. Thankfully, the people-pleasing Libra Moon encourages us to work in partnership rather than alone.
The Summer Solstice on Friday, the 21st, helps you look at the next three months. This begins the build-up of energy in the emotional signs of Cancer, Scorpio and Pisces, which culminates in mid-August. Over the past two weeks, I have seen numerous people in great distress. The moon is in Scorpio at the Solstice, so begin by reviewing what needs to be released in your life.
There will also be a harmonious Grand Water Trine beginning now that will expand into an even bigger trine in mid-July. This triple harmony combination works best if you are willing to release, revise, and review what nurtures or does not nurture you.
The June 23rd Full Moon in Capricorn brings a strong phase where you could muster up the courage to change your life's direction. Find a balance between your public image and your private life. With Jupiter moving into Cancer, and several planets in water signs, there is increased danger or rain and flooding throughout the summer months. However, the summer heat begins now!
Another important shift starting June 25th, is the annual shift of expansive Jupiter moving into Cancer for the coming year. The planet of blessings is leaving "scattered" Gemini and moving into nurturing Cancer. All of those ideas you came up with in the past year are now moving to a choice point. Whether you physically relocate, make decisions regarding all types of relationships, or add activities that nurture you, the first step is to let go of that which is no longer supporting you.
Social messages are decidedly mixed this weekend with the Moon flying into fearless Sagittarius and the Sun slipping into self-protective Cancer on Friday morning. We may vacillate between the desire to take risks and an attraction to safe places and familiar faces. Pushing emotional physical limits can work if proper precautions are made in advance. Sunday morning's calculating Capricorn Full Moon shifts the energy in a more serious direction.
Before you begin to navigate all this planetary action, be sure to point yourself in the right direction Why not delve more clearly into your heart's desires WITH A 2013 READING? Straight to the point, Elizabeth gives you everything you need to take advantage of the sheer power of the energies of 2013.

Consider revamping your image when the Full Moon occurs in your sector of self on Sunday. Toss out clothes that don't flatter your body type and replace them with stylish new ones. A romance might hit a rough patch on Sunday. Professional guidance could be the best way to resolve your differences.
YOUR LOVE WEEK-EARTH SIGNS: The middle of the week is perfect for discussing emotionally charged issues. The Moon moves into profound Scorpio on Wednesday morning, pushing you to face powerful feelings. Count on a friend for good advice on Thursday when communicative Mercury runs into romantic Venus. Thursday night's conjunction gives you the chance to smooth out complicated conversations with kindness. If single, the seductive power of words should be pleasing when you meet someone new. The Sun begins a month-long stay in cuddly Cancer on Friday morning. Your desire to connect emotionally continues to grow and will likely pull a sensitive person into your orbit. Sunday's earthy Capricorn Full Moon brings a welcome sense of stability, putting your feet back on the ground. Much of the weekend, though, might feel ungrounded and restless, which is fine if you're in the mood to wander. But the Sunday Moon's shift into ambitious Capricorn spurs bolder romantic behavior. Your passion and intensity could surprise even yourself on this emotionally charged day. Sunday morning's volatile Full Moon stirs up in your usually orderly sign. Powerful feelings may erupt that can rock an otherwise solid relationship. This is your chance for a major breakthrough either with someone else or within your self, if you're willing to let go of the past to start over again. Follow your heart and don't look back.

Virgo needs to be careful this month when it comes to their heart. The past is keeping one from moving on to a healthy start or relationship. Virgo will struggle to see the problem until the full Moon when things become more clear. The Virgo in a relationship should take this time to be figure out what they want most from their partner. If everything seems to be at a standstill, then it might be time to move forward. It is never a sin to want more independence in committed relationship, and the current star placement this month is an ideal time to explore that aspect.
The single Virgo needs to embrace past mistakes if there is any chance of making a connection this month. This is the only one can expect to make any headway when it comes to love. The dating Virgo should be open to the possibility of finding a new love. The current partner might have a wandering eye that can only be curbed with some friendly competition.

Full Moon in Capricorn ~ July 14/15, 2011 Posted: 08 Jul 2011 09:00 PM PDT"Eclipse at Moonset (c) Itahisa N. Gonz'alez via APOD."
With the last of the Cancer-Capricorn eclipses behind us, this is the first FULL MOON IN CAPRICORN that is not an eclipse since 2009. Full moons signify the completion, culmination of what may have been initiated during the previous New Moon/Solar Eclipse in Cancer which offered us the chance to face our realities and rise up to the challenges ahead "(square to Saturn)", without losing sight on what gives us hope and healing "(links to Jupiter and Chiron)".
The Moon represents our heart, emotions, private life, inner drives, and is natively governed by sensitive and nurturing Cancer. In Capricorn, the zodiac sign opposite Cancer, the Moon feels emotionally restricted but focused on the tasks at hand. This FULL MOON IN CAPRICORN encourages us to acknowledge our realities, face our fears, and rise above them without losing our openness to love and compassion along the way. Let's not become jaded or calloused because of the hardships we've lived through and continue to face.
This Full Moon occurs on July 14 at 11:40 p.m. (Pacific) / July 15 at 2:40 a.m. (Eastern) at 23^0 of Capricorn. Those born within 3 days of July 14 and January 12 or with natal planets and/or house angles near 23^0 degrees of cardinal signs may feel the effects of this full moon stronger than others.
How might this full moon manifest in your world? Match the sign and degree to determine what house this full moon falls in. Use the list of zodiac signs below to identify the sign Capricorn on your birth chart then click here for a brief explanation on the Full Moon transit in that house.

Sorry for taking a few days to get this next post up! I've had a wonderful birthday and my husband took his vacation this week! Here you go my pretties, Chinese Astrology!
I don't know much about this type so here are a few bits I found online for you.
Taken from Wikipedia:
Chinese astrology is based on the traditional astronomy and calendars. The development of Chinese astrology is tied to that of astronomy, which came to flourish during the Han Dynasty (2nd century BC to 2nd century AD).
Chinese astrology has a close relation with Chinese philosophy (theory of the three harmony, heaven, earth and water) and uses the principles of yin and yang and concepts that are not found in Western astrology, such as the wu xing teachings, the 10 Celestial stems, the 12 Earthly Branches, the lunisolar calendar (moon calendar and sun calendar), and the time calculation after year, month, day and shichen.
Chinese astrology was elaborated during the Zhou dynasty (1046-256 BC) and flourished during the Han Dynasty (2nd century BC to 2nd century AD). During the Han period the familiar elements of traditional Chinese culture - the Yin-Yang philosophy, theory of the 5 elements, Heaven and Earth, Confucian morality - were brought together to formalise the philosophical principles of Chinese medicine and divination, astrology and alchemy.
The 5 classical planets are associated with the Wu Xing:
Venus-Metal (White Tiger)
Jupiter-Wood (Azure Dragon)
Mercury-Water (Black Tortoise)
Mars-Fire (Vermilion Bird) (may or may not be associated with the phoenix which was also an imperial symbol along with the dragon)
Saturn-Earth (Yellow Dragon)
According to Chinese astrology, a person's destiny can be determined by the position of the major planets at the person's birth along with the positions of the Sun, Moon and comets and the person's time of birth and Zodiac Sign. The system of the twelve-year cycle of animal signs was built from observations of the orbit of Jupiter (the Year Star; simplified Chinese: ; traditional Chinese: ; pinyin:Su`ixing). Following the orbit of Jupiter around the sun, Chinese astronomers divided the celestial circle into 12 sections, and rounded it to 12 years (from 11.86). Jupiter is associated with the constellation Sheti (simplified Chinese: ; traditional Chinese: - Bo"otes) and is sometimes called Sheti.
A system of computing one's fate and destiny based on one's birthday, birth season, and birth hours, known as Zi Wei Dou Shu(simplified Chinese: ; traditional Chinese: ; pinyin: zweidush`u) is still used regularly in modern day Chinese astrology to divine one's fortune. The 28 Chinese constellations, Xiu (Chinese: ; pinyin: x`iu), are quite different from the 88 Western constellations. For example, the Big Bear (Ursa Major) is known as Dou (Chinese: ; pinyin: du); the belt of Orion is known as Shen(simplified Chinese: ; traditional Chinese: ; pinyin: shen), or the "Happiness, Fortune, Longevity" trio of demigods. The seven northern constellations are referred to as Xuan Wu (Chinese: ; pinyin: x'uanw). Xuan Wu is also known as the spirit of the northern sky or the spirit of Water in Taoism belief.
In addition to astrological readings of the heavenly bodies, the stars in the sky form the basis of many fairy tales. For example, theSummer Triangle is the trio of the cowherd (Altair), the weaving maiden fairy (Vega), and the "tai bai" fairy (Deneb). The two forbidden lovers were separated by the silvery river (the Milky Way). Each year on the seventh day of the seventh month in the Chinese calendar, the birds form a bridge across the Milky Way. The cowherd carries their two sons (the two stars on each side of Altair) across the bridge to reunite with their fairy mother. The tai bai fairy acts as the chaperone of these two immortal lovers.
The 60-year cycle consists of two separate cycles interacting with each other. The first is the cycle of ten heavenly stems, namely theFive Elements (in order Wood, Fire, Earth, Metal, and Water) in their Yin and Yang forms.
The second is the cycle of the twelve Zodiac animal signs ( shengxi`ao) or Earthly Branches. They are in order as follows: the Rat,Ox, Tiger, Rabbit, Dragon, Snake, Horse, Goat, Monkey, Rooster, Dog, and Pig. In Vietnam the rabbit is replaced by the cat.
This combination creates the 60-year cycle due to the least amount of years (least common multiple) it would take to get from Yang Wood Rat to its next iteration, which always starts with Yang Wood Rat and ends with Yin Water Pig. Since the zodiac animal cycle of 12 is divisible by two, every zodiac sign can only occur as either Yin or Yang: the Dragon is always yang, the snake is always yin, etc. The current cycle began in 1984 (as shown in "Table of the sixty-year calendar" below).
When trying to traverse the lunisolar calendar, an easy rule to follow is that years that end in an even number are yang, those that end with an odd number are yin. The cycle proceeds as follows:
If the year ends in 0 it is Yang Metal.
If the year ends in 1 it is Yin Metal.
If the year ends in 2 it is Yang Water.
If the year ends in 3 it is Yin Water.
If the year ends in 4 it is Yang Wood.
If the year ends in 5 it is Yin Wood.
If the year ends in 6 it is Yang Fire.
If the year ends in 7 it is Yin Fire.
If the year ends in 8 it is Yang Earth.
If the year ends in 9 it is Yin Earth.
However, since the (traditional) Chinese zodiac follows the (lunisolar) Chinese calendar, the switch-over date is the Chinese New Year, not January 1 as in the Gregorian calendar. Therefore, a person who was born in January or early February may have the sign of the previous year. For example, if a person was born in January 1970, his or her element would still be Yin Earth, not Yang Metal. Similarly, although 1990 was called the year of the horse, anyone born from January 1 to January 26, 1990, was in fact born in the Year of the Snake (the sign of the previous year), because the 1990 Year of the Horse did not begin until January 27, 1990. For this reason, many online sign calculators (and Chinese restaurant place mats) may give a person the wrong sign if he/she was born in January or early February.
The start of a new Zodiac is also celebrated on Chinese New Year along with many other customs.
Although it is usually translated as 'element' the Chinese word xing literally means something like 'changing states of being', 'permutations' or 'metamorphoses of being'. In fact Sinologists cannot agree on one single translation. The Chinese conception of 'element' is therefore quite different from the Western one. The Western elements were seen as the basic building blocks of matter. The Chinese 'elements', by contrast, were seen as ever changing and translation of xing is simply 'the five changes'.

The zodiac of twelve animal signs represents twelve different types of personality. The zodiac traditionally begins with the sign of the Rat, and there are many stories about the Origins of the Chinese Zodiac which explain why this is so (see below). The following are the twelve zodiac signs in order and their characteristics.
Each of the 12 animals are governed by an element plus a Yin Yang Direction.
Rat (Yang, 1st Trine, Fixed Element Water).
Ox (Water buffalo in Vietnam), (Yin, 2nd Trine, Fixed Element Water).
Tiger (Yang, 3rd Trine, Fixed Element Wood).
Rabbit (Cat in Vietnam) (Yin, 4th Trine, Fixed Element Wood).
Dragon (Snail in Kazakhstan) (Yang, 1st Trine, Fixed Element Wood).
Snake (Yin, 2nd Trine, Fixed Element Fire).
Horse (Yang, 3rd Trine, Fixed Element Fire).
Goat (Ram in Vietnam) (Yin, 4th Trine, Fixed Element Fire).
Monkey (Yang, 1st Trine, Fixed Element Metal).
Rooster (Yin, 2nd Trine, Fixed Element Metal).
Dog (Yang, 3rd Trine, Fixed Element Metal).
Pig (Boar in Japan) (Yin, 4th Trine, Fixed Element Water).
The animal signs assigned by year represent what others perceive you as being or how you present yourself. It is a common misconception that the animals assigned by year are the only signs, and many western descriptions of Chinese astrology draw solely on this system. In fact, there are also animal signs assigned by month, day, and hours of the day. The combination of one's birth year, month, day and hour are a part of the 'four pillars' of Chinese astrology which determine one's fate.
To sum it up, while a person might appear to be a Dragon because they were born in the year of the dragon, they might also be aSnake based on their birth month and an Ox based on their birthday and a Goat based on their birth hour.
Once again I am sorry I couldn't give first hand knowledge on this subject, I feel that astrology has so many different areas for each part of the world. This is to help you along the lines of more information if you are interested in the subject. I have found wikipedia a good source to start with in searches because they provide links to other sites.
Blessed be,Lady Alice

Nova Leo Lunation on August 12th exact on 4:02PM PDT or 7:02PM EDT
Total self-expression can burst forth on this highly inspirational event bubblingwith radiant energy. Sun and Moon cojoin @ 20 degrees (19* 51') Leo with the Sabian message: American Indians perform majestic ritual to the Sun!
Leo Planets Posited in the 7th of the DC Chart
With Mercury quickly applying to an exact conjunction and combust Sun-Moon in Leo
there will be a strong tendency toward a capacity for concentration and focus.
If that was all there was it wouldn't be that remarkable except that since Venus now retrograde just slipped back in Leo and is meeting Saturn during this lunation.
This Saturn-Venus conjunction is the second this year with the last occuring on October 1st in the highly, service and earth oriented sign of Virgo - a huge shift from the glamourous life as depicted on the American Dream Tube.
We have recently seen the stock markets react in volatile meltdown to the housing crisis based on subprime loans that have finally blown up.
Despite the ominous tones present in this lunation - Chart for DC has all those Leo planets posited in the 7th house of foreign relations, treaties and/or disputes...Yes not only is this the house of open enemies but of business relationships and agreements. We will soon see how Venus Retrograde meeting Saturn direct and moving Full Speed Ahead to soon change signs into Virgo on September 2nd.
Venus is the natural ruler of the 7th house which signifies our relations with other societies or nations or organizations. (Now many more will wake up to the total destructive path that the US Empire of Neo Cons has hoisted upon the rest of the world.) All these Leo planets with the 7th Cusp at 0 degrees Leo puts even more emphasis on treaties, alliances, marriage and divorce issues, public relations, the balance of trade, the conditions of women - this also includes the divine feminine which is waking up as GAIA and very pissed off!
Leo is about courage, being the center of attention and it is also about Joy!
He who kisses the joy as it flies, lives in eternity's sunrise. WILLIAM BLAKE
As Barbara Hand Clow says about this remarkable event: " Sun/Moon/Mercury exactly opposite Neptune in Aquarius (as well as Chiron) is very significant because Neptune in Aquarius (1998-2012) has been guiding our spiritual opening all the way through the Galactic Underworld-1999-2011. "
Not only will the housing crisis accelerate but our sense of time is catalyzed by all these Neptune oppositions - there is a sense that that which was solid (like the empire's 3D Realitiy pronouncements including the phony War on Terror are dissolving into a greater, much larger dimensional shift.
Chiron the wounded healer @ 13 Aquarius is a barometer for our own deeper psychological insights with the Sabian Symbol: Neighbors have gathered to hear the news in a rural mansion equipped with a short wave radio. The host fiddles with the antenna to get a better signal. At this juncture we all are ready to get an accurate picture of our own interior cultural and spiritual reality...
Notice that the new moon chart also has Mars in Gemini (in the 4th) opposing Jupiter in Sagittarius in the 10th to make up one arm of a mutable, life changing cross with the Nodes of destiny in Pisce-Virgo making up the other arm. Mars in multi-directional Gemini is symbolically located in the 4th house of real estate and land values, mines, coal pits, minerals, quarries, the weather in direct conflict with Jupiter (prosperity and expansion). Jupiter is found in the 10th house of the DC Chart: the 10th which rules the government, the leadership or ruling class. In a nation's chart it rules the national reputation and prestige, world opinion, the party in power, the chief executive - ENOUGH SAID!
With Jupiter recently moving direct this mutable grand square with Pisces karmic focus on awakening true Christed compassion should allow many to see the root cause of America's primary difficutlites which have resulted in wasting precioius life and resources to wage
an unjust, antiquated and totally immoral war. This highly adaptable grand cross with Jupiter (sphere of the masters) applying to another SQ with Uranus the trickster bringing many surprises and sextile to Chiron opening us to a necessary healing process. The Sun ruler of Leo will shine on our need to protect the precious nature of life and the pursuit of happiness by ending all war once and for all.

A House Divided - Will Peace and Justice Break Out or Be Suffocated?
This Last Full Moon on 8/19/05 featured a Libra Stellium an anti-war signal (Venus/SNode/Jupiter and asteroids Pallas and Hygiea) This lineup reflected an increasingly powerful voice for peace and justice and a larger audience. Last Friday's Full Moon aka The Full Sturgeon Moon by Indian tribes - sturgeon, a large fish of the Great Lakes and other major bodies of water, were most readily caught during this month. With Cindy's help the Big Fish of the media have been hooked and caught in a net of dialogue about how painfully wrong the Iraq war has evolved. Even the likes of Fox News, MSNBC have to carry Cindy's quotes. Now with Mars in Taurus (rules voice) ruled by Venus - women are weighing in more and getting much more coverage. The Goddess is alive and filled with rage. Not only have the journalists seized on Cindy's vigil at Camp Casey but the Neo Cons have taken the bait and started to create excessively red state venues for sitting duck or is it lame duck? Bush. His last two talks in Salt Lake City and Boise were far from moral majority cakewalks. Coinciding with the president's visits to Salt Lake City and Boise this week, Gold Star Families for Peace (group Cindy Sheehan co-founded) purchased television ads in those cities. Cindy whose Leo Uranus/Venus/Mars is able to grab publicity and attention while uniting families. Finally we have someone who can bridge the gap between military families and intrinsic need for peace (SNode/Jupiter in Libra together on Full Moon) - someone who can simply and innocently accuse Bush lying about his reasons for invading Iraq.
A HOUSE DIVIDED OR VIET NAM WASN'T LIKE THIS
So today the media buzz is about dueling protests and oppositions (Jupiter Libra Oppose N Node Aries). All this energy and hype (Mercury/Leo opposing Neptune/Aquarius)along with about 7,000 protesters all bearing down on sleepy Crawford, TX population 788. This is not like Viet Nam with a clear channel style cross-country caravan for a pro-Bush rally meeting the growing multitude of sincere followers headed to Camp Casey to support an anti-war demonstration led by grieving mother Cindy Sheehan. Tropical Storm Katrina is even trumped in the news by the likes of Howard Kaloogian of a phony org. called "Move America Forward". Howard must think that Cindy is Jane Fonda with remarks like: "And I have a question that I want the media to begin asking Cindy Sheehan: How many more American soldiers are going to die because you are giving hope and encouragement to our enemies? Hey Howard, American soldiers are dead because the Bush/Cheney Cabal wanted to grab Iraq's oil and give into a blood -lust and power corrupted!
COLLECTIVE TEARS, THE US CANCERIAN SPIRIT AND SATURN'S DRAMATIC MOVE IN LEO
First and foremost Cindy is the mother of Casey Sheehan who was killed for no good reason in Iraq read: Aaron Glantz's (an unembedded journalist (not attached to a military unit) description of that fateful day in Baghdad's Sadr City on 4/04/2004.
YES IT IS ABOUT CASEY! Cindy Sheehan has an emotional, nurturing sense of purpose in Cancer and communicative style integrating the weepiness of Mercury in Cancer that tugs at our heart strings. With Saturn newly on the stage in Leo - the drama of Cindy and her son Casey is the perfect metaphor. Sometimes we wonder if Cindy and her opponents are a deflection from talking about global warming and the inside job perpetrated by the Carlyle Crew on 9/11. Cindy may have Sun/Mercury in Cancer but she is not an emotional wet towel with a fiery natal chart dominated by four planets in Leo the goddess of devotional activities:Vesta in Aries conjunct Astrea (goddess of justice). A few words about Vesta in Aries, this endows Cindy with a powerful drive for perfection and a highly independent spirit. Those with Vesta in Aries make sacrifices for causes they believe are important whether humanitarian or spiritual. Perhaps that is why the now famous 60-second ad, in which Sheehan speaks directly to the camera and castigates the president - "You lied to us, and because of your lies, my son died, she says.
AMERICA IS A CANCERIAN COUNTRY WITH A SPONTANEOUS N NODE IN LEO
Just like the willful identity of the US (Sibley Chart inner wheel) Cindy as I explained is not a typical shy Cancerian Crab but really outgoing even with her sensitive emotional, communicative style (Mercury) in Cancer sitting over the US 8th house of secrets, death, debt owed to the nation and foreign investment. Now Cindy doesn't just have Sun/Mercury over this natural house of Scorpio - she has Uranus (trickster and genius) Venus (women, relationships and values) along with Mars (action and impulse). As I have said with the ingress of Saturn in Leo (7/16/05), Mars in Taurus (7/27/05)and soon Jupiter in Scorpio (10/26/05) fixed signs that are persistent and move toward completion dominate our conciousness. It just so happens that the US N Node is at 7 Leo - which symbolizes the creative spontaneous child, playful and carefree - yet with transiting Saturn moving exact conjunction on 9/17/05 - a more serious tone of drama will occur around the Sheehan Saga. There was a time when America was more known for being fun loving, laughing and benevolence even taking on the mantra "it's never too late to have a happy childhood." Saturn in Leo has begun severly dampen much of the innoncence we have all felt as the United State. Yes the "dumb puppy ala Johnny Dep" is reaching maturity and those romantic frivoluous days days have been hijacked by one too many imperialistic wars. Now that secondary progressed N Node sits at 25 Cancer 27 right near the collective tears shed with Cindy and other Gold Star Mothers who must be for peace.
Chiron has opened the national wound to healing with Cindy's natal Chiron sitting at 16 Aquarius trining a midpoint between the Sibly Charts Saturn and Juno in Libra. Speaking of wounds inflicted by past wars on our values and our women, Cindy opens all those dark, power points by aligning with her devoted, pioneering Vesta @16 and fiery Astrea@17 Aries. Both of the previous asteroids hit the secondary progressed venus and chiron at If Cindy's galvinizing the entire movement including Downing Street Memo, impeach Bush, International Answer, Rainbow Coalition and multiple Anti-war contingencies.
Again from the strategic vantage point, Cindy's Pallas @1Taurus which aspects via an easy sextile to progressed Sun in Sibley Chart may account for her ability to heal by laying on of hands. Pallas in Taurus usually is concerned with fighting for the land (Camp Casey donated by Rancher) - earth ecology or land reform. With transiting Mars headed for Cindy's S Node (past life gifts) she will be asked by the enviromental movement to help out.
If those Libra planets can gain momentum before the last week in October, the scales of power may tip toward a world peace movement despite doomsday scenarios.
we may yet see the withdrawl of troops on schedule next year along with the impeachment of GWBush as more light is shed on the Secret Government.

December 1, 2008: Two stories today really echo the changing of the guard as evidenced by Pluto in Capricorn
Its official: US has been in a recession all year: Financial News - Yahoo! Finance
Good bye irrational exuberance and the unbridled optimism of Pluto in Sagittarius as The NBER - a private, nonprofit research organization - said its group of academic economists who determine business cycles met and decided that the U.S. recession began last December.
The second story which finally hit the centrist media today December 1st after an early AM positive Venus-Jupiter conjunction in chilly Capricorn has been talked about by Alex Jones and others like Jim Marrs for years. Like a block of cold ice in a blizzard, this news revelation wasn't needed to restore faith in a flailing American government: Washington Post: 20,000 More U.S. Troops To Be Deployed For "Domestic Security"
The increasing militarization of America is part of a long term agenda to abolish Constitutional rule and establish a "military form of government," following a large scale terror attack or similar disaster, as Tommy Franks, the former commander of the military's Central Command, alluded to in a November 2003 Cigar Aficionado piece.
Mars and Sun TSQ Uranus-Saturn an Explosive Trigger
After November's total mandate for change symbolized by the signature aspect of the year Saturn Opposing Uranus on election day November 4th, many much more can happen in December? By the time the fiery Sagittarius New Moon on Thanksgiving November 27th brought some relief and hope, Pluto had entered a new cycle with an ingress into Saturn ruled Capricorn. Pluto represents power and Capricorn the government, the establishment and together they determine major restructuring. Today on December 1st extremist news broke big time in the centrist Washington Post that the U.S. military expects to have 20,000 uniformed troops inside the United States by 2011 trained to help state and local officials respond to a nuclear terrorist attack or other domestic catastrophe. This looks like some major change since the Posse Comitatus Act, a 130-year-old federal law restricting the military's role in domestic law enforcement is now about to be abolished. Looks like we have to look toward Uranus the shock which r moved went direct at 8:08 AM PST on November 27th shortly before the Sagiitarius lunation. The powder keg exploded first with the Mumbai attacks stretched an already thin veneer of peace between India-Pakistan towards a possible full scale confrontation. The November 27th lunation with Mercury-Sun-Moon and Mars in the sign of the archer brought did bring some temporary optimism but the building TSQ to Saturn-Uranus on the Dec. 12th Full Moon. is translating the light from the November 4th opposition. Sun-Mars coming together in Sagittarius (Dec. 5th) is creating a hot aspect that stimulates aggression and bold action on on December 5th the same day. Mercury Squares Uranus and with Mercury (Sag) in 90 degree angle, communications are interrupted and subject to breakdown. Transportation matters are unstable. Shocking news, attacks on authority figures, controversy abounds. To top all this off earthquakes will be grinding the seismic plates all month.
Mars leads the assault on the US Sibley Foundation Chart
One of the primary aspects of the US foundation chart set for July 4, 1776 in Philadelphia at 5:10 PM is the close Mars in Gemini SQ Neptune in Virgo. In our nation's chart this aspect involves a fantasy love-hate relationship between the US military (Mars in Gemini) and our ideals of service orientation (Neptune-Virgo). This is the core aspect of American empire. The Full Cold Moon; or the Full Long Nights Moon of December 12th challenges this long standing relationship not only with the annual Moon in Gemini at 21 degrees right on the Sibley Mars the incredibly powerful TSQ which now involves a Grand Cross of which I referred to in the paragraph above. Notice how the biwheel chart above has Sun-Moon Opposing and SQ Saturn-Uranus at all the angles of the Full Moon set for December 12th. This Grand Mutable Cross no doubt will set in motion some revolutionary changes in the thinking and hearts of many Americans about the inviolate nature of their heroic military establishment. With Pisces rising on 12-12-08 it will be the rulers Neptune and Jupiter which will keep things more confused yet diffused.
All those winter signs from Mars-Sun in Sagittarius to a new transit of Mercury into Capricorn to join Pluto for some extreme mental orientation along with Juno-Jupiter also in Capricorn to keep relationships restrained both politically and socially. Yet Venus-N Node, Chiron, Neptune all in Aquarius will be crossing the US democratically oriented Moon @ 27 Aquarius (Sabian: a tree felled and sawed) is that George Washington's cherry tree? By the Inauguration on January 20th a revolutionary spirit will be sweeping the land. By the time Osama is sworn in, Jupiter will have gone into Aquairus and Mercury due to retrograde will spend longer time in Aquarius and Capricorn before joining the collective energy of N Node, Chiron and Neptune.
