Rising Sign (Ascendant)

4 Degrees of the Constellation Scorpio were on the Eastern Horizon when Justin was born.

A Scorpio Ascendant endows you with strong will-power, ambition, physical energy, passion, determination and deep emotions. Brave, ingenious, resourceful, self-reliant and courageous you do not shrink from controversy or dispute if it is thrust upon you – nor do you shirk responsibility.

You have strong likes and dislikes towards both persons and ideas, and you do not easily change your opinions or habits of life. You have much strength of will, and although feelings, emotions, and passions sometimes sway you intensely, you have great endurance and persistence and you can work hard and long to achieve your ends. You are a good fighter when the defensive, critical, sarcastic or analytical side of your nature is activated.

At times, you can be too blunt and forceful with those who differ with you, creating unnecessary enmity and friction. You tend to look after your friends and go out of your way to help those in need, although, on occasion you can be very rude. You also have a predisposition to jealousy. You may, at some stage, develop a taste for mystical or occult subjects. Qualities lacking to some degree, which may be found in your partner are efficiency in practical matters and diplomacy.

Midheaven

The  constellation of Leo is at Justin’s Midheaven.

LEO MIDHEAVEN

This placing indicates that in order to succeed in your social position
in the world you will have to gain knowledge and expertise associated
with the proper use of personal power, creative self-expression and
control of the ego. You need the kind of work that puts you before the
public (such as acting), but you can also do well in investments.
Recognition is more important to you than money, as you need the approval
of others. You will succeed best in positions of leadership, and to
fulfill a wish to leave the world with a lasting legacy. Your profession
may deal with investments in lands and property, stockbroking, or
speculative ventures relating to art, music, schools, places of
entertainment.

Sun Sign

When Justin was born, the Sun was in the constellation of Aquarius.

An Aquarius Sun endows you with intellectual abilities, idealism, sociability, sympathy and a magnetic social presence. You have a good memory and are capable of receiving a good education. You have an open disposition – genial, cheerful, candid, frank and truthful.

At times you can be very silent and self-contained but this does not imply melancholy. On these occasions, others may view you as a little eccentric and changeable. You are likely to make many friends and you are constant and faithful in your attachments. You will benefit a good deal through friends and acquaintances and take much pleasure in their companionship – you believe strongly in the brotherhood of man concept.

There is an innate need to study the more profound aspects of life and you may be attracted to such subjects as science, literature, art and metaphysics. Qualities lacking to some degree, which may be found in your partner are self-confidence and courage.

Positive Expression: Idealistic, humanitarian, ready to help others, intuitive understanding, sociable, sympathetic, democratic, universal, well-liked, vivacious, unconventional, tolerant, original, progressive thinking.

Negative Expression: Detached, scattered, impractical, temperamental, worrying, superficial, fixed in opinion, perverse, eccentric, fanatically unconventional, rebellious, lack of personal integrity and principle.

Moon Sign

Justin’s Moon was in the constellation of Virgo at the time of his birth.

You are concerned and caring when it comes to the welfare of others. Not dynamic or too emotional, you are attentive, observant, careful, and above all responsible — able to respond. Always competent, you are in fact quite loving, although others could feel scrutinized or inadequate when in your presence.

Moon Day

19th Moon Day

Waning Disseminating Moon
If you were born during the Disseminating Moon phase, one of you main interests in life involves sharing your knowledge with the world. You consider that your life experiences have been productive of much knowledge and understanding for you, and wish to give others the benefit of your insight.

Nakshatra (Lunar Mansion)

Your birth Nakshatra determines your thinking patter, nature as well as basic destiny. It also determines the instincts as well as the subconscious aspects of the personality.

Justin’s Moon was in the CHITRA NAKSHATRA at the time of his birth. 

1. Physical features : He has a lean body. He can be recognized or identified even from a crowd of hundreds of people through his magnificent dealings and expressions.

2. Character and general events : He is very very intelligent and peace loving. He will not hesitate to go to any extreme for the sake of selfish benefits. There is a hidden inherent Godly gift for this Nakshatra born i.e., the ideas or opinions or advice expressed by him would initially appear to be a sheer nonsense but later on the same idea or opinion or advice will only prevail upon. There is also an inherent gift of intuition. Hence he is the type of person who is very much fit for the Astrological profession where intuition is very much needed. In some cases, it is also noticed that the native quite often see a lot of dreams which are actually becoming true. This would indirectly indicate that a divine power is automatically installed in the brain of Citra born. He is the type of person who is not bothered about the sentiments of others nor is he selfish to others. But in spite of this adamant attitude his dealings with the poorer section of the society will be very cordial and full of kindness. Quite often he is mistaken by others that he is very rude and stingy. He has a tendency of giving reply on any matter without forethought and he wakes up at the eleventh hour and try to rectify his utterances when it is too late. He has to confront his enemies at every step but he is capable of escaping any conspiracy. He has soft corner for the down trodden people and he devotes his time and energy for the uplift of this section of the society. But one of the hidden factors is that initially his approach to the down trodden will be without any selfish motive, which later on culminates into selfish motive.

3. Education, sources of earnings / profession : Obstacles in the life is not a hurdle for the advancement for him. He can overtake all these hurdles with his courage and hard work. He will not be leading a comfortable life up to the age of 32 years. Period between 33 years and 54 years of age will be his golden period. One of the redeeming features of Citra born is that he gets help and reward from unexpected quarters without putting much efforts. From several horoscopes examined by me, it is seen that the age of 22, 27, 30, 36, 39, 43 and 48 years of age will be very bad in all respect. The native may earn as a sculptor or mechanic or as a factory employee or the native will be in the political arena or the native may be be an engineer or a textile technologist.

4. Family life : While on the one hand he sincerely loves his co-borns, and parents, on the other hand he suspects the activities of the co-borns and parents. Citra born cannot, in most of the cases enjoy the benefit, love and affection from his father. It is also noticed that the father of the native leads a separated life. In any case, he has a life away from his father. One of the points noticed is that his father in spite of separation from the native have some distinct identity of his own i.e., will be famous or known in a particular field. He is more attached to his mother and enjoy benefits from the maternal side. There is a saying that the Citra born cannot stay in the house where he is born. Either the native will leave the house and settle down somewhere else or the house he is born itself will be sold or destroyed. In other words, he will be settling down in an unknown and distant place away from his native house. Normally he cannot enjoy a happy married life. When we say a happy married life, while the marriage will be stable the relationship between the couples will not be cordial leading to frequent friction on small matters. He has to shoulder lot of responsibilities and face lot of criticisms throughout his life

5. Health : Inflammation of kidney and bladder, brain fever, diseases connected with worms. Abdominal tumors or appendicitis also have been noticed.  

Elements and other factors

A Preponderance of the AIR element

The preponderance of Air signs suggest a strong emphasis on thought, ideas and intellectual pursuits of one sort or another. There is a detachment and a sense of objectivity associated with such a heavy influence in the element of Air. Air signs communicate and express ideas with mental agility. Your Air signs may not, however, always get the job done, and you need to be sure ideas are grounded in reality and put to practical use. You are probably more concerned with theory than with application.

Often, individuals having a heavy amounts of Air signs become the impractical dreamers, constantly thinking, but not always following through as well as others. Rational and logical, you analyze situations fully, thinking them through and planning carefully before you act. While you may ponder and vacillate, you rarely make foolish mistakes. Detached and not overly emotional, you are almost always objective and fair-minded. You are people-oriented, but more inclined toward the group than the individual. Your interests are varied, and you’re apt to be a life-long student.

Fixed Preponderance

The strength in fixed signs in your chart suggests that you hold to fixed or rigid ideals and goals. What you may lack in daring, you make up for in perseverance. You are usually able to achieve whatever you undertake, purely from the strength of your determination. You are extremely strong-willed and resistant to external influences. You set values and ideals over individuals and situations, often in an uncompromising manner. Your great strengths are loyalty, constancy and dependability. The down side of a fixed chart is the likelihood of too much of a "fixed" or stubborn nature. Compromise is hard for you because giving in is nearly impossible. You may be so rigid that you can’t roll with the punches.

Eastern Hemisphere

The planets clustered in the eastern hemisphere suggest that you’re likely to be more independent, strong-willed, and more individualistic than reading of your signs may otherwise suggest. The placements on the east side denotes leadership ability, a self-starter, one who is self-motivated and often self-employed; a risk-taker. In short, you’re more apt to be the author of your own destiny, and one likely to have many choices in life.

Northern Hemisphere

The planets clustered in the northern hemisphere suggest a very subjective view of life with personal privacy noted as important. You enjoy working alone because you are a little introspective and perhaps even introverted. So your accomplishment may often lack recognition. This more subjective view of matters can produce significant focus and thrust of action.

Justin Bieber’s Year Ahead 2011 – 2012

The following Astrological influences will be in effect from September 2011 through all of 2012, unless otherwise noted:

Transit Neptune Square Natal Pluto and Ascendant:

Neptune/Pluto Aspects in Prediction Charts:

In General: Stimulates the desire to dissolve away all boundaries in order to uncover the deepest motivations of the consciousness in order to achieve absolute integration.

Positively: When these two planets express their energies positively, there are opportunities to advance as the result of intense effort that is guided by intuition and spiritual understanding. The inner world is more prominent for most of these people than events in the outer world, but if there are other indications, then natives could discover some way of communicating issues that motivates large movements of people to action for some collective cause. In business and personal life, this contact could simply indicate a personal power coming to the fore due to a sense of magnetism and flair which gets people’s attention. Also, during this time individuals may undertake a regimen of self-purification in order to seek perfection.

Negatively: When expressing negatively, this energy can be quite difficult, and there will be dangers of estrangements and separations from their milieu or perhaps opprobrium due to a character flaw or weakness coming to light. Strange addictions can dominate the personality and their morals could be endangered by associations with people of low character. The main difficulty will come from trying to assert the ego and from trying to maintain some kind of pretense. Only by relinquishing any claim to ego satisfaction can they ride out this time successfully.

Transiting Neptune Square Natal Nodes:

In General:  Stimulates the desire to make a deep and mystical connection to one’s purpose in life.

Positively:  Individuals who have contacts between Neptune and the Nodes in prediction charts will seek out connections with others that bring them into a wider and more spacious universe of experience.  They may join organizations that are devoted to spiritual development, or they may seek out spiritual guides who can help them achieve the integration of their everyday lives with their spiritual aspirations.

Negatively:   When expressing negatively, this combination can indicate a time when individuals find themselves burdened by negative relationships that sap their energy and drive.  Drugs and alcohol addiction could be a factor in their failure to connect with people who could help lift them out of a dissipated lifestyle.  They must also guard against association with criminals.

Solar Arc Saturn conjunct Natal Venus:

In General:  Stimulates the desire for emotional self-control.

Positively:  When these two energies are expressing positively in a prediction chart, there will be opportunities for advancement and recognition due to having persevered and proven themselves worthy of trust.  Sometimes this can indicate an older, more mature individual forming a relationship with someone younger, or vice versa.  It is definitely a sign of marriage.  Due to the enduring nature of Saturn, any bond that forms during this contact will be long lasting.

Keywords: duty, devotion, fidelity, May/December love, sacrifice, reserved, respectable, straight-laced, conventional, moral, controlled.

Negatively: When Saturn and Venus express their energies negatively estrangements and relationship difficulties arise due to a failure to share feelings.  The object of their affections may not return their feelings, causing loneliness and sadness.  Saturn can mean limitation and delay, so one should be patient and lower their expectations.

Keywords: inhibition, cold heart, jealousy, separation, difficulty, depressed, lonely, self-torment, poverty.

Health: Depression and emotional strain can lead to lower resistance to disease. Examine the sign occupied by each of the planets, and the sign opposite for indications of specific vulnerabilities.

Solar Arc Mercury conjunct Natal Sun:

In General:  Mental activity is stimulated.  Generally coincides with changes in the life of natives which test their powers of adaptability.  This can also indicate educational opportunities, or perhaps events in the life of brothers or sisters.  Can also manifest as much moving about, either in the immediate community, or even more distant travel.

Positively:  Opportunities are found through travel, education, transport or communications. There could be success or recognition in the literary field or in work with newspapers.  Promotion may come as a result of being able to organize information or activity.  If attending school, then a scholarship could be awarded, or some kind of scholastic recognition may come.

Keywords: knowledge, education, intelligence, talkative, articulate, ingenious, clever, adaptable, flexible, quick-witted.

Negatively:  Failure or difficulties come as a consequence of the inattention of  individuals, or perhaps they are the focus of negative gossip or even slander.  Restlessness can lead to mistakes and unwise decisions that lead to setbacks.  Failures can also come from events outside their control.  Also, natives may fail to take advantage of opportunities and not be adaptable to changing circumstances due to stubbornness.  They could also be out-maneuvered by the competition.

Keywords: misdirected, misunderstood, scattered, flaky, unreliable, liar, unintelligent, unorganized.

Male Natives

1. Physical features: Normally he is of middle stature. However, a native with Saturn’s aspect to this segment has a tall body. His nose is prominent and his eyes sympathetic, neck thick and stout, solidly built body with big shoulders and well developed muscles, countenance peaceful and his behavior respectful. He has a commanding appearance.

2. Character and general events: While he is on the one hand very intelligent, on the other hand he cannot pursue any goal for long. In other words he easily gets bored with any particular thing and jumps upon another without knowing the pros and cons. He is capable of rendering good advice and tells others the way out of any problem. But in his own life, he does what he thinks at a particular time. He will discard any friendship if that friendship questions his ego and freedom. But at the same time he does not like to achieve name, fame and wealth through unfair means or at the mercy of others. His needs or wants are not beyond reason nor his accumulations always spectacular, although his money making abilities are often phenomenal, his motivation however derives from an emphatic wish to remain free from obligations. He cannot find fault in his own action.

Optimism followed with self-pride is one of the characteristics of these persons. He is determined to go ahead with great energy and shows his stubborn and tenacious nature. Orthodoxy and monotheism are combined in him i.e. while he is orthodox he does not believe in age-old blind belief and customs. Persistent effort and hard work are his motto. He is eager to render some positive service to the world but he cannot shine for a long period. He involves himself in public life sincerely but loss and failures are ultimate gain. This drawback is attributable to lack of ability to move according to the situation. He tries to impose certain restriction and control through self-assessment and modify them according to his sweet will. Once a promise is made, it will be carried out at any cost. In the public life he can attain name, fame and respect. Excess of sincerity will be the means of his downfall. Frustrations start hunting him even on small matters and lead him to outburst. Once he is heated up, subsequent steps will be dangerous. Hence he has to observe maximum mental balance and keep away the out bursting temperament. Remarkable ability will be shown in arguments and counter arguments with reasoning. It is quite often seen that these types of persons will be bereft of truth and money, undertakes unnecessary travel. They are thankless and will utter cruel words.

3. Education; source of earning/profession: Mostly Krittika born will not stay in the hometown. That means his livelihood will be in the foreign land. When I say foreign, it is not necessary that it should be a foreign country. Foreign land means a little away from the place where he is born. Partnership business is not suitable to him. He derives benefits from the government. Engineer, doctor specialized in venereal diseases, treasury department, draftsman. In case the native is interested in business he can derive maximum benefits from the yarn export, medicines and decorative industries. A large legacy at any part of his life is awaiting for him. He is very slow in any work. Hence for success in life, he is advised to increase the speed while doing any work as otherwise he may be dragged behind others.

4. Family life: He is generally lucky in his married life. His spouse will be expert in household administration, dedicated and devoted, faithful and virtuous. With all these plus points, health of the spouse will be a concern for him and / or circumstances may so be created that he has to quite often live separately. When I say separation, it may be due to work or due to ill health to either of the family members i.e. parents of the spouse etc. and not due to disharmony between the couple. While he has to confront many obstacles in various walks of life, he will be content and lucky in the family field, where he enjoys the utmost satisfaction and peace. He is more attached to mother. Among his co-born, the native will enjoy more favor and love from the mother. While his father will be a pious man and well-known person, the native cannot enjoy comforts and benefits from father. His life up to 50 years of age will be full of trial and have to face frequent changes in surroundings. However, period between 25 years and 35 years and 50 years and 56 years will be very good. Love marriage is indicated to the native. Sometimes, it has been found that Krittika born marries a girl known to his family.

5. Health: He has good appetite but he has a systematic food habit. Diseases to which he is prone to are dental problems, weak eyesight, tuberculosis, wind and piles, brain fever, accident, wounds, malaria or cerebral meningitis. Whatever may be the condition of his health, whether good or bad, he is not afraid of any disease nor is he ready to observe daily care of his health. 

Elements and other factors

Prominence of Fire and Earth

Fire and Earth type When the elements of Fire and Earth combine, the result is potentially powerful and creative. Fire provides action and Earth looks for tangible results. The Earth elements give sustaining power to the drive from self-expression symbolized by the Fire elements. The rapid-fire inspirations of Fire are grounded by the Earth so that energies can be conserved and focused. A problem with this combination is a degree of insensitivity that is usually present. When moving toward a goal there is little concern for anything or anyone that gets in your way. You may need to cultivate attention to ideals and your own inner life. In any event, the key words for the elements in your chart are steadiness, reliability, and productivity.

Cardinal Preponderance The concept of cardinal planets is synonymous with movement or the nature of planets giving movement or action to the nature. This suggests that you are a person who is inclined toward constant activity, with efforts directed at the here and now.

You are likely to act immediately on issues that come to your attention, never sitting idly by waiting for someone else to get things started. Positively expressed, cardinal signs produce constructive initiative. Yet sometimes they produce thoughtless actions that gain little.

Western Hemisphere The planets clustered in the western hemisphere suggest that you are highly adaptable to opportunities, but you are also somewhat dependent on others in many ways. You are passive or subtle in your actions, often permitting others to take the lead. You work best in a partnership or group employment arrangements, always having others involved in your destiny. You have a sense for taking advantage of opportunities that are presented to you, and because of this you usually make the most of them.

Southern Hemisphere The planets clustered in the southern hemisphere suggest that you are ambitious, career oriented, and generally want fame and recognition. You have an objective view of life that lets you enjoys working with others. You are very active in the outside world, having broad material values and goals. There is much that is visible when the planets are in the south; little that you say or do escapes public view.

Year Ahead 2011 – 2012

The following Astrological influences will be in effect from September 2011 through all of 2012, unless otherwise noted:

 

Progressed Mars Square Natal Saturn:

In General: Stimulates endurance, ambition and courage.

Positively: When these two planets cooperate and express their energies positively, natives can expect a time when their ambitions are realized due to determined efforts that follow a carefully laid out plan to which they apply themselves with diligence and fortitude. This contact often involves deprivation and denial, even when positively expressing. Also, even under the best influences, there is the danger for estrangement due to their becoming emotionally distant and cold. Another danger is being intolerant of others who do not have their staying power. They will need patience and reserve. Keywords: endurance, perseverance, deprivation, tough, hard-working, disciplined, ascetic, Spartan.

Negatively: When these two planets are expressing negatively in either the natal chart or the prediction chart, then natives may attract disputes and conflicts with others as a result of egotistical behavior or intolerance of weaknesses in others. In some cases, there may be a lack of initiative, due to the road being far too difficult and natives simply running out of determination and energy to complete their tasks. It may be that under this influence, they will encounter someone in authority who puts them under some kind of onerous discipline that is meant to break them. This influence can sometimes indicate difficulty with authority figures, the father, older people, as well as the law. Afflictions of these two planets can also indicate difficulty with children because of unreasonable or inappropriate expectations by the parent. Keywords: hardship, tests, initiation, exhaustion, destruction, separation, fatigue, accident-prone.

Health: Afflictions at this time could lead to serious health challenges due to nervous exhaustion and the depletion of energy due to over work and over strain. Also, there is a definite danger of injuries involving broken bones from accidental falls.

 

Progressed Sun Square Natal Venus:

In General: This stimulates the affections and the desire for harmony, as well as artistic inclinations.

Positively: There will be opportunities for love and friendship. Often marriage coincides with these contacts. Natives may take an interest in their appearance, and so improve their wardrobe. Advancement can come through favorable contacts or relationships, especially with women. Can indicate childbirth. Success may come through artistic pursuits. Can indicate a period of ease after a time of hardship. Keywords: love, relationship, marriage, ease, artistic, aesthetic, refined, beauty, romance, recognition, demonstrative.

Negatively: Relationships can suffer due to individuals being too eager to please, or conversely inattentive to the needs and concerns of others. Narcissism and self-absorption can lead to living in a dream world. Over-indulgence leads to weight gain. Laziness leads to loss of opportunity. Depending on sign and aspect placements, can also indicate promiscuity or even sexually transmitted disease. Keywords: promiscuous, slovenly, lazy, unambitious, laxity, immoral.

 

Solar Arc Pluto Square Natal Saturn:

In General: Stimulates the desire to master creative power.

Positively: When these two planets express positively, it indicates a time when ambitions are realized due to perseverance and determination. Under this energy, weakness and failure are simply not in natives’ vocabulary. It may be a time when natives turn from the world, or reject conventional ways of living in order to pursue a path of asceticism. Keywords: patience, fortitude, perseverance, will, seclusion, singular focus, untiring, indomitable.

Negatively: When expressing negatively, this may be a time of forced hardship which can lead to thoughts of suicide. Natives are likely to feel oppressed and hopeless. Enemies may do them harm. Their egotistical attitude could arouse the opposition of others. This can also give rise to vindictive thoughts and to carrying malice in the heart. It can coincide with illness or injury to an older relative. Difficulty with the legal system is also a possibility. Keywords: severity, ruthlessness, violence, revenge, karma, reactionary, obsession, compulsion, fanatic, egotistic, unsympathetic, intolerance.

Health: When expressing negatively, may indicate trouble with teeth and other bony or skeletal structures of the body.

 

Transit Neptune Conjunct South Node:

In General: Stimulates the desire to make a deep and mystical connection to one’s purpose in life.

Positively: Individuals who have contacts between Neptune and the Nodes in prediction charts will seek out connections with others that bring them into a wider and more spacious universe of experience. They may join organizations that are devoted to spiritual development, or they may seek out spiritual guides who can help them achieve the integration of their everyday lives with their spiritual aspirations.

Negatively: When expressing negatively, this combination can indicate a time when individuals find themselves burdened by negative relationships that sap their energy and drive. Drugs and alcohol addiction could be a factor in their failure to connect with people who could help lift them out of a dissipated lifestyle. They must also guard against association with criminals.

The Solar Arc method of progressing a horoscope uses the movement of the Sun by progression, and then adds that increment to all the other planets, as well as the MC and the Ascendant.  These are then aspected to the natal chart.

Here is the USA chart, for the day of adoption of the US Constitution, which seems to me to work well as a birth chart for the US rather than the July 4 date.

June 21, 1788 – 11:11am, originally in New York, but then recalculated for Washington DC.

Two things of note in this chart:

1.  The MC opposition US Natal Uranus:

From the Astrology Handbook: In Mundane astrology, Uranus indicates   Railroads, airline industry and air freight, invention, electricity, occultism, radio industry, strikes, disorder. These have to do with correspondences to events in the world at the time of Uranus’ discovery.

The Fifth House, which is being traversed by the progressed MC represents All forms of national pleasure and entertainment; sports, general amusements; Society, children.  The 11th House, where is located the natal Uranus represents Parliament, especially the lower house. Local government, and in the US, Congress.

Another author has written this regarding the 5th House of Mundane charts:

5th House All forms of entertainment and national pleasure, general amusement or excitement, theater, television and radio as entertainment, music and musicians, arts, fashion, leisure, formal social functions, high society or the "upper class" of a country, the House of Lords as opposition to the House of Commons of the eleventh house. Looking back into antiquity many mundane definitions came from English authors so I believe the House of Lords equates to the USA Senate. Sports, heroes and champions, morals, betting, speculative interests and risk taking; relationships as a way of life for a population, children (collectively) and their education (see also the third house), children of the mind and the body, both physical and creative children, birth rate. Some authors place ambassadors in this area as embassies also represent the social function between countries.

11th House Congress, parliament especially the House of Commons in England. Again, many mundane definitions came from a long line of English authors so I believe the House of Commons in England would equate to the USA House of Representatives. It also is political representation in general, local government such as town and country councils, friends of the nation, legislation in general (see also third house for the written function of legislation). Article Source: http://EzineArticles.com/4477405

 

This, it seems to me, may indicate that speculative ventures are subject to some kind of disruption, which could also cause some considerable controversy as well as changes in direction on the part of the legislatures.  I would guess that the next quarterly reporting is going to have some really bad news, and this will cause some kind of panic.  Perhaps the states and local governments are really going to start looking like defaulting. 

And for more on Uranus: From the Astrology Handbook: 

Glyph Originally it was an “H”, the initial of the last name of the person who discovered the planet, Herschel. The circle with a line protruding upward is the symbol for a planet. We see the circle of mind/spirit, surmounted by the cross of matter and materialism, which is bounded by two crescent moons, or alternatively, could be bounded by the two pillars, representing duality of light and dark, good and evil, etc. The two crescents may also symbolize human and divine consciousness, with a bridge opening between them when materialistic fixation is broken down. This makes it possible for the individual (the circle) to ascend to higher states of awareness as it realizes the pure stainless sky of its original nature.

In General and in Natal Charts Uranus was discovered in 1781. This coincided with the French Revolution, as well as the establishment of the United States, which rejected monarchy and instituted representative democracy. It is therefore seen to be iconoclastic and destructive of the overly rigid class and economic social structures that society uses to limit personal and social freedoms. It represents the energy of chaos, revolution and anarchy.

Its discovery also coincided with the Industrial Revolution, which changed society from primarily agrarian to urban and industrial.

The keywords of Uranus are freedom, uniqueness, individuality, inventiveness, impulsiveness, intuition, eccentricity, idiosyncratic, weird, change, creativity, genius, originality and unconventionality.

The sign in which Uranus is located shows in what way the energy of revolution, change and innovation are expressed in the individual. For example, Uranus in Gemini would indicate a person who can think creatively, but if negatively expressing, may have difficulty in expressing ideas in a way they can be understood by others.

The house of Uranus shows where there may be disruptions or some kind of unique feature or expression that sets this individual apart from the norm. This is where the individual will do things differently from what is dictated by the majority or consensus. When other planets are positively expressing with Uranus, they will have a special talent for unique expression, but if negatively expressing, there may be eccentric expression, or even disruptive and anti-social tendencies, which would be described by the planet. In other words, the faster planet would have to adjust to or accommodate what is being indicated by Uranus.

Developments to watch for: fluxuation in stock markets, accidents, and possibly some new news relative so congressmen or senators behaving badly.  There could also  be some disruption in aviation or railroads. 

2. Solar Arc Asc square to natal Uranus

This will emphasize all said above.  This aspect is involving the 8th House, and so banking, irs, taxes and many other functions of the government and its finances will come under greater stress. There is little good news.

3. Solar Arc Neptune square natal Mars

From Astrology Handbook:

There is a threat that natives may be overwhelmed by emotional surges that lead to unwise and impulsive action. The desire to succeed is not coupled with the determination to work hard, and so there is the danger of using nefarious methods to achieve their aims. Under this influence, natives are prone to lying, stealing, or to being the victim of such action. Since the desire nature is stimulated there is the danger of getting lost in drug induced self-deception and addiction. This energy can also manifest secret enemies and trouble through slander and underhanded methods. Natives may have to sacrifice their own interests and undergo extreme hardship or disappointment. Keywords: addiction, fantasy, treachery, seduction, dissipation, weakness, escapism.

 

4. Saturn by Solar Arc is within a degree of exact for square to natal Mercury. This will be a time for further economic paralysis which will affect transportation, education, news media and many other parts of the economy. 

General prognosis:

Unsettled.  Economy will continue sluggish and non-responsive to any stimulus efforts.  Civil unrest a definite possibility in coming year. The Progressed Mars conjunct radix Moon could bring violence to the public sphere, schools, or even the possibility of a disease outbreak.

Discussion:

The current Constitution of the United States was ratified by the 9th state, which made it official, on June 21, 1788.  I have drawn up a chart for this day, at 11:11 am, and then changed it from New York (the original capitol) to Washington DC.  This chart seems to me to be more useful and accurately predictive than the July 4 charts, no matter what time that one is drawn up. Below is the natal sidereal chart:

What should be kept in mind is that the country really didn’t officially exist as a legal entity until the date of the ratification by nine of the 13 original states.

I like the Leo Ascendant for the US. There is definitely a “me first” quality to the character of America.  The Ascendant is conjunct the Fixed Star Denebola, a star in the Leo constellation. Denebola is of the nature of Saturn and Venus. It gives swift judgment, criticism, perseverance, control, lack of imagination, honors, undesirable associates, mental illness, happiness that turns to despair and hatred, regrets, public disgrace, disease, natural disasters, catastrophes and misfortune from the elements of nature. It also makes its natives noble, daring, self-controlled, generous and busy with other people’s affairs. (This, and all quotes are from Astrology Handbook, by Anton Jaks.)

Also notice the Sun and Jupiter conjunction in the 10th House in Gemini.  Here we see the major role that the US has assumed in the business of the world. This is especially true with regard to business leadership with corporations.  Jupiter is conjunct the Fixed Star Alhena, a star in the Gemini constellation. It was also known as Almeisan, the “Shining One”. It is of the nature of Mercury,Venus and Jupiter. Gives an acute sensitivity, creative imagination, writing,imminence in art, but may indicate accidents affecting the feet.

The Sun is conjunct the Fixed Star, Propus, a star in the Gemini constellation. Propus has an influence similar to that of Mercury and moderately to that of Venus, some say solely Saturn. It gives overconfidence, pride, shamelessness, violence and eminence.

If I ever get the time, I will demonstrate this charts effectiveness in the past.  I would direct anyone interested to December of 1913 (the founding of the Federal Reserve), Black Friday, October 28, 1929, Also of note is the Solar Arc position of Pluto exactly on the Ascendant for 9/11/2001. 

Here are the current transits to the chart:

Jupiter is square the radix Uranus, which means mixed signals from bankers and financial markets. Saturn is square radix Jupiter indicating that any recovery is going to hitting further snags.  Uranus is square radix Sun, which indicates instability.  All in all not a particularly promising time.

Here are the current Progressed planets:

The most significant contact is the Progressed Mars conjunction to the radix Moon. In mundane charts the Moon indicates “The people, or common citizens, particularly the women, crowds, subjects or objects of popular interest; water transport conditions and occupations, land and crops.”  Mars indicates “Surgeons, the military and those who serve therein. Criminals, engineers, violent crimes, wars, fevers, epidemics.”  Given the recent news about the E-Coli outbreak in Germany, it is possible that something similar could become a problem in the US.  This could also be a sign of some kind of civil disturbance.

With the progressed Ascendant sextile to radix Saturn, there is opportunity for the economy to make some progress if the debt can be addressed. 

Here is the Solar Arc chart against the radix:

There are some positive signs: Jupiter trine MC, Neptune sextile Uranus, Pluto sextile Uranus. Ascendant trine Mars. 

On the negative side: Neptune square Mars (approaching exact soon), MC opposition to Uranus, Ascendant square Uranus.

Altogether, with the progressed Mars conj. Moon, these indications are for instability and some volatility.  No good news on the immediate horizon, and the possibility of some real problems. This chart has shown some volatility with regard to Neptune in the past, so the Neptune square Mars in this Solar Arc chart is troublesome and could indicate that there is some kind of duplicity or covert action with regard to any civil unrest or police response that such an event could precipitate.  This is dangerous.

The Solar Return for 2011 and into 20112:

The Moon in this Solar Return chart is conjunct two fixed stars:

ALRISHA A star in the Pisces constellation. The knot between the northern and southern line. It has the influence of Saturn, and moderately, like Mercury (Northern line influence) or Jupiter (Southern line influence). Some also say the influence is like Mars and Mercury. A unifying influence with groups.

05ari40 MIRACH A star in the Andromeda constellation. It is like Venus. It gives personal beauty, a brilliant mind, a love of home, great devotion, talent, beneficence, forgiveness, love, overcoming by kindness, renown and good fortune in marriage.

Jupiter is conjunct :

08ari27 MESARTHIM 03tau11 A star in the Aries constellation. It is a Saturn-Mars influence. Mesartim shows up more of the protective-administrative quality of Saturn and less of the impulsive aggressive of Mars.

09ari14 SHERATAN 03tau58 A star in the Aries constellation. It is a Mars-Saturn influence. Sheratan shows up more of the impulsive aggressive Mars and less of the administrative quality of Saturn. It gives violence, defeat, accidents, injury, danger and honors.

These influences could mitigate the very scary T-Square configuration of Sun opposition Pluto, both squaring Uranus.  The indication of this is for very bad weather, floods, sudden unexpected violence or discordant and disruptive events that the employment sector, as well as the army, navy, warships and public health.

When dakinis dance before me
I cannot stop them,
Nor would I want to.
When dakinis disappear
Into stainless sky
I cannot stop them,
Nor would I want to.
Rainbow wisdom deity,
Self manifested in
The heart space of the Goddess,
Victorious Ocean of Wisdom,
Kuntuzangmo, Mother of all Buddhas,
Inconceivable essence of all worlds,
To you I pray.
Please illuminate my precious  Buddha nature.
Empower the three gates of wisdom
That I may never be separate
From the holy Lama
Until I awaken in the inconceivable
Great exaltation and spacious bliss
Of your Dharmakaya ocean.

Because there is now talk of Sarah Palin being a presidential contender for the 2012 election, I thought it might be a good thing to look at the astrology of her Sidereal Birth Chart, as well as how things look in her chart for the coming two years.  In this post I will only discuss her birth chart.  The progressions and other indications for the 2012 election I’ll deal with in a subsequent post.

The chart is drawn up using a 6pm birth time on Feb. 11, 1964, in Sandpoint, Idaho.  There has been considerable discussion on the internet concerning her birth time  – and the same is true for all the major political players these days; it makes one wonder, why can’t we just get this information for anyone running for political office?  What’s the problem here?  It seems to me that things like official birth certificates (the one with time of birth listed), along with things like school records and the like should be available.  If you put yourself forward like these people do, it should just come with the territory.  But apparently, not.

 

In any event, this will also afford an opportunity to incorporate some interpretive techniques that have fallen out of favor in the New Age, but which can  be extremely useful, although the way they will be used here will be updated with some emphasis on how this all plays out from the perspective of Vajrayana Buddhist perspectives.

The first thing that pops to one’s attention is of course the close conjunction of her Sun, Mars and Saturn within 10 degrees of her 7th House, which is a bit out to call it “in the foreground”, but nevertheless, is significant.  This is someone with considerable drive and ambition, who will always face stiff opposition, but who can’t be bent or toppled by name calling and the like.

The other significant factor here is the conjunction of Uranus and Pluto in her 1st House, with Leo on the Ascendant.  How fitting for someone who just seems to come up into prominence out of left field, and then manages to completely upset the established order.  I’m referring to her getting the Vice Presidential nomination from McCain, and then this whole Tea Party thing really taking off, and now there is talk of her possible bid for the presidency. 

Below is a clip from one of the screens in Astrowin that lists decanates, dwads, and other states that the planets and house cusps are located in or otherwise characterized by.

It is very interesting that a beauty queen, governor of Alaska, and possible Presidential contender would have a Sun that is dark, lame and pitted.  But from a Vajrayana perspective, this makes a certain sense, not having anything to do with her looks, but instead, the karmic and samsaric challenges that characterize her, for example, such things as fundamental Christian beliefs, which indicate a strong fixation with conceptual forms in samsara.  It is also evident in how people seem dislike her, strictly on the face of it.  People seem to just hate her voice, or something about her, yet, it doesn’t inhibit her in any way.  She just gets up in front of everyone and all the cameras, her whole life on public display, and just bounds ahead.  Truly remarkable.  For those who are interested in such things, you might try analyzing all this as if Palin’s political career is a vast chod ceremony, in which the demons are substantialized by visualization and then annihilated. Except that in this case, it is all performed on the stage of world events!

By the way, notice that her two very powerful and influential planets in her chart, Saturn and Uranus, are also both Smokey and Pitted.  This makes me think that she has already, in a sense, made a pact with the Devil… my cute little way of referring to the fact that no one since at least 1963 gets to be President of the United States, or even a candidacy, without being vetted by certain “dark” interests.  These interests don’t particularly care which party or candidate wins, that is just window dressing for the idiots that vote.  They are in charge no matter who wins.  That is why you will never see a true parliamentary style democracy or even a real third party system develop in the USA:  it would be too difficult to control, and therefore unpredictable, which is not what the controllers want.  Above all else, they need predictability, so that they can set themselves up to profit from whatever develops.

Back to the astrology Palin’s chart, her 10th House MC is increasing in fortune, and in the decan of Venus and the Dwad of Mercury, both of which are Masculine and Light, meaning that she can usually anticipate getting favorable attention.  She knows instinctively how to communicate and how to look.  She’s got social graces that can be used to further her career and her public standing.

Everything in this chart bespeaks a conservative bent, but one that harnesses new waves of energy to get things done.  Her style is to come out of left field, but she is still solid with the mainstream power structures.  In this light, she shares a lot in common with Obama.

Hillary Clinton’s Solar Precessed Return shows a strong likelihood of ascendancy.

Note the Moon Conjunct Uranus at the MC.  Note the Sun Trine Neptune and Chiron.  This indicates upsetting the norm (first woman President, perhaps?) due to the ability to harmonize interests, and to communicate in a new way that promotes a sense of healing among the people.

It is almost as if Hillary Clinton has been consulting someone very knowledgeable with Astrology in the way she has managed her political career in the last few years.  She hasn’t burned bridges, and she has been content with a subordinate role, simply doing her job conscientiously.  This will pay off in 2011 and especially in 2012.  Astrologically, it appears she could likely be the next President of the United States, and she will take over from some kind of massive failure and collapse.

Note in the Solar Return (Precessed) that Jupiter Conjunction with the Angle of the 4th House which is Trine the Mars at the Ascendant.  Mars is malefic, but in Trine with the Jupiter, which is closer to the angle than is Mars, Jupiter wins, so even though there will be trouble with the Obama Administration, Hillary Clinton will benefit in the  long run.  She is safely out of the country doing her job, while Obama gets canned for being essentially corrupted or incompetent or just plain failed.
