Judes Threshold » Election in November or not?
October 15th, 2008 @ 11:56 am by Judes Threshold
As the 2008 campaign endlessly grinds on I’m receiving more comments here and there (’there’ being Stars Over Washington) that the US may not be having elections this November, the lastest from one of my favorite people, Jilly.
And I’ve written on the possibility myself - October Surprise, false flag op, martial law - whatever it takes for Bush to stay in the White House (a horrid horrid thought, isn’t it?) if they think McCain can’t win; so when readers with intuitive abilities tell me that the Nov elections may be called off or disrupted beyond repair, it makes me think yet again that what has been worked toward for so long and at such price and effort will not be easily surrendered to the ‘other team’ - if at all.
If that’s the case, it’s too bad that America and the needs of the American people get lost in their egoistic, power-mad shuffle.
Today I’ve been looking at the Secondary Progressed midpoints (and charts) for the Democratic Party (born May 13, 1792 NS; 12:00 pm LMT; Philadelphia, PA) and the Republican Party (born July 6, 1854 NS; 5:00 pm LMT; Jackson, MI.)
Since tonight marks the last of the three presidential debates, I’m comparing today’s Secondary midpoints with those of Nov 4, 2008 and for Jan 20, 2009, and the only difference is in the Dem’s chart…the diffcult Saturn/Pluto duo rises by Nov 4…
Saturn/Pluto = ASC: placed in cumbersome and difficult circumstances; separation; bereavement.
Also the Saturn-Pluto midpoint in the Republican Party’s Progressions is conj Sec NN and will continue to be for some time: common suffering shared with others; the misery of the masses.
Now there are many more good indcations than the one negative one for both parties. The Dems’ Sec Sun is conj Sec Mc, for instance. But I looked for what changed between now and Jan20, 2009.
And it’s no weakness or lack in Astrology for Astrology describes the many levels of life we all contend with - good mixed with bad. Plus, motives always matter and sometimes things come seemingly from out of nowhere - at least we are unconscious of them until they actually occur, then it’s a Doh! Moment a la Homer Simpson, isn’t it? “Who saw that coming?” we ask incredulously.
Well, since I’m “under the weather” today and feeling somewhat puny, I’ll simply close with the current Secondary ‘Images for Integration’ for each party. You might get a kick out of them - or perhaps a chill:
Democrats: Sun Sag-Moon Cap: “In the year 2999, a courageous explorer goes on a quest for knowledge of the past which opens up for man a hopeful future on another planet…With patient skill a rock climber scales a seemingly impossible mountain peak.”
Republicans: Sun Sag-Moon Cancer: “A homing pigeon…An evangelist offers a vision of personal salvation…An international nanny…Jimi Hendrix’s Woodstock rendition of ‘The Star Spangled Banner’…William Blake’s watercolour, ‘Teach These Souls to Fly’.” (Tate Gallery, London.)
