In this
post let us look at two different responses to the same star configurations. In the first one we have a President who sells
the interest of the people whose rights he should have been defending. In the
second news we have a young heroine fighting for the right of her people to education and a
better life.

From the
bench in the same sex marriage case this week, Supreme Court Chief Justice John
Roberts asked why President Obama didn’t have the “courage of his convictions”
to not enforce a law he thought was contrary to the interests of the American
people. The same question could have been posed to the president on Tuesday
when—with a stroke of a pen—he affirmed the very budget sequester that he’s
repeatedly decried for two years. On March 26, the president signed a temporary
funding measure, called a continuing resolution, to keep the government
operating until the end of the fiscal year. The bill finances government
operations at painfully low levels and locks in the dramatic budget cuts
outlined last month. It marks the third time in as many months that the
president has signed off on sequestration.
The bottom
line is that instead of acceding to Republican threats due to fears of economic
apocalypse, the time has arrived for the president to consider doing the
opposite. What the result would be nobody knows, but the current strategy of
yielding has furthered a downward, agonizing grind in living standards amongst America ’s
historically marginalized communities. [1]

Malala
Yousafzai, the Pakistani school pupil whose
near-martyrdom inspired a country to stand up to the Taliban was one among eight
pioneers who were honored for their moral courage and their dedication to
women’s rights at the 12th annual Vital Voices Global Leadership Awards at the
John F. Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts in Washington, D.C. on Tuesday,
April 1, 2013.
To
understand both these stories I take my readers back to the Solar and Lunar eclipse pair
that coincided with the New and Full Moon of May 21 and June 4, 2012. The New Moon [0ge21] was conjunct the stars of
the hero Perseus who rescues the chained Princess Andromeda while the Full Moon [14sa14] stars Sarin and Algethi represent Hercules’ strength and responsibility to aid
others in their pursuit for freedom. Hercules helps and teaches others to claim their self-mastery and freedom from
the dominion of others and from false beliefs placed upon them. [2]
The first
chart presented here is the Full Moon chart [4 jun] progressed to March 26,
2013, the date of News story 1. Notice Pluto-Kronos-Hades on the angles
Pluto-Uranus-Kronos-Hades: Events
show that differences of opinion, legalities, rules or attempt to set
procedures (Kronos) are actually power struggles (Pluto-Uranus) or arise from
resentments (Pluto) and are a need to push a leader (Kronos) to his limit so
that he abdicates (Hades) his executive
function.[3]
Since Obama’s
birthdata is available (4 Aug 1961, 19:24 AHST, Honolulu ) we can add the chart for his progressed
solar return on March 26. Notice the same T-square Pluto-Uranus-Kronos-Hades on
the angles. The Ascendant [12ar12] is conjunct the star Alderamin [12ar57].
Alpha (α) Cepheus, Alderamin, is a
star marking the right shoulder of the King.
Alderamin, the Alpha star of
Cepheus, is the right shoulder of King Cepheus, father of the Royal Family and
Princess Andromeda, often portraying one in an authoritative position.
Alderamin imparts a quality of authoritative responsibility. With afflicted alignments,
Alderamin can expresses as denial, avoidance, or turning one's head from
dealing with the manipulative power plays causing our or other people's
entrapment with a flippant attitude to do anything about them.
The third chart is the New Moon [21 May]
progressed to 2 April 2013, the date of the News story 2. Notice Pluto-Uranus-Kronos-Hades
on the angles once again but here the response has been very positive.
Rules and procedures (Kronos) have
made things really bad (Hades) . It is time to change those rules
(Pluto-Kronos) and stand up with the courage of
one’s convictions (Uranus in Aries).
The two
examples illustrate that the future is not already written in the stars. The
same configuration can create a hero or a coward!

P.S. In
reference [2] Nick Fiorenza elaborates on the meaning of the Venus Transit of
June 6, 2012 – the rare event that accompanied the Full Moon (June 4). He
associates it with the empowerment of the feminine. The chart for the Venus transit
drawn for Swat Valley – Malala’s birthplace - shows
Venus-Sun forming a square aspect to the meridian axis indicating that this was
one place chosen for feminine empowerment! On April 2, the day she was
receiving her reward, transit Mercury (14pi) squaring the Venus-Sun conjunction.The
Sabian symbol for the Venus-Sun conjunction bears it out.

KEYNOTE: A
passionate response to a deeply felt new experience.
