At the outset of an election cycle expected to
attract unprecedented levels of outside spending from ultra-rich donors like
the Koch brothers, a new poll finds that the American people, in fact, oppose
the unlimited flow of dollars into politics, do not think money equals speech,
and want to restrict the power of the one percent to buy ballot outcomes. Released
Tuesday by The New York Times and CBS, the findings "reveal deep support
among Republicans and Democrats alike for new measures to restrict the
influence of wealthy givers, including limiting the amount of money that can be
spent by 'super PACs' and forcing more public disclosure on organizations now
permitted to intervene in elections without disclosing the names of their
donors," the Times summarizes. A stunning 84 percent of respondents said
that money has "too much influence" in American political campaigns
today. From across the political spectrum, people in the U.S. are calling for
change with "near unanimity," the study finds. June 2 http://bit.ly/1JjOoAr
A chart for
the Full Moon at Washington DC is shown here. The Moon is in the 4th house. H.S.
Green in his “Mundane or National Astrology” writes that this house represents “the
people as contrasted with the monarch”.
In other words, if the rulers are indicated by the 10th
then those ruled are in the 4th. Here the Moon is conjunct the
star Antares, Alpha Scorpio, Heart of the Scorpion about which Nick Fiorenza
writes:
In classical astrology, Antares is the
star of war and weaponry, and with expounded meaning, to challenge the
established opposing politics (an arena common to the Antares / Aldebaran axis)
with a tenacious willingness to fight and even destroy. Antares demands we take
responsibility for our reality, for the lives we create, and "take a
stand" for our truth, live it, and especially to take a stand against the
established conditions of our personal lives and against the established order
or authority directing our lives when those conditions or that authority are no
longer in our best interest nor supporting our evolutionary freedom and
greatest fulfillment.
No commentary
is required. Nick’s excellent account of Antares tells us exactly why the
American people want money out of politics.
