WHAT KIND OF MIX IS BREWING HERE?

As transiting Jupiter and Neptune continue their conjunct travel through the sign of Uranus ruled Aquarius we are daily seeing hopeful optimism about the economy… the DJIA back over 10,000 and still on an up trend line making higher highs and higher lows… in defiance of reality …how prosperous are you feeling? …me, I’m on the verge of bankruptcy like thousands of others.

I witness people getting laid off simply because their wages are too high… and their skills can be replaced by a cheaper freelance temp who gets half the salary and no benefits other than a paycheck… The creative and experience skills are no longer needed as quality and content is no longer cost effective on some MBA’s spread sheet… only allowing for more units for cheaper and faster…

Take for instance, Hugh Hefner and Playboy magazine… which he recently sold. He started in 1953 with $600 and a magazine with a partially nude starlet centerfold… Marilyn Monroe. Over the decades he built a playboy lifestyle industry… and it did help break our society out of it’s sexual repression… but then as all corporate things do… it clones and mutates… into Penthouse… and then Hustler… and today one finds ‘sexting’… the sending of sexually explicit photos over a cell phone…

Whether you accept it as the word of God… or as an allegory that describes these transiting cycles… one must admit we’re getting a little out of control with it all… and it’s beginning to look like Sodom and Gomorrah more and more…

Sarah Palin and Levi Johnston tour the talk show circuit… and don’t kid yourself, they get paid for it… why? …ratings, advertising revenues, spread sheet profit projections, etc… where is the logical end… Sarah and Levi do the ‘Jerry Springer Show’? …that’s what Oprah, and all the other shows are turning into by hosting them… and Levi didn’t go ‘full frontal’ in his Playgirl magazine shoot… are you feeling conned yet?

The world leader meetings come to naught… they can’t make up their minds as to what to do about the climate, economy, or any of it… China doesn’t want to cooperate because they’re just entering their consumerism and playboy lifestyle cycle. Our cycle is burning out… look at the mess our population of 2 to 300 million has created… now visualize at the mess that the billion or so new consumers in China are going to potentially make… with intermittent terrorist bombings and wars… and pirate ransoms will be figured into corporate budgets… the money comes back around as the pirates become affluent consumers of televisions, laptops, cell phones, SUVs, more guns, and faster boats…

…and here we are… all of us are trying to make some sense of it all. The historical facts are that nothing goes in a straight line or up forever… empires come and go… and they all dream of saving and or conquering the world.

All the while… Gaia, Mama Earth… may have other plans, like rearranging Atlantis and Mu and various other continents some eons back… and today the crack in the Ethiopian desert slowly widens and lengthens…

…and during these whacky transits forget about predicting football games… I only got one of three on the parley this past Sunday with the Dolphins beating the Buccaneers… maybe it’s time to look at basketball game charts?

These are frustrating transits of ill temper… do try and focus your attention to the task at hand… and chill out …and try to be calm.

I know it’s hard… just because astrologers know about these transits doesn’t make them immune to them… I feel the same frustrations as you do, dear reader…

…may the peace and love of the cosmos be with you…
