Astrologers Agree: Obama Faces Machiavellian Enemy
But He May Boast a Potent “Leadership Chart” Just Like Bill Clinton
by Andrew Mangino, July 29, 2007, edition of The New York Observer.
"The fate of the 2008 presidential election might already be sealed—in the fine print on Barack Obama’s birth certificate.
Was he born at 1:06 p.m.? Or was it just after 12?
According to America’s most popular political astrologers, what happened—or did not happen—during that crucial Honolulu hour on August 4, 1961 could determine the future of the free world.
Since Mr. Obama’s birth time is not yet publicly known, even to his own campaign, astrologers who make their living interpreting the impact of the heavens on the nation’s earthbound elected leaders can’t make up their mind as to whether he has one of the most ready-made “leadership charts” in recent presidential history—a strikingly similar one to Bill Clinton’s, save the seductive planets—or is cursed with the prospect of physical danger and a mentality too cerebral to run a country.
The only existing report of the time, which apparently originated from a shout-out from Mr. Obama over a noisy crowd to astrologer Frances McEvoy during a New Hampshire pass-through earlier this year, places him at 1:06 p.m., coincidently just 300 seconds after the moon transitioned from Taurus, a sign of resolution and leadership, to Gemini, a decidedly less confident constellation. And it’s only an hour before the ascending planet in the horizon, which determines first impressions, transitioned from a deeply powerful constellation to a more wavering and reckless one.
“If he were born an hour earlier, it would make a huge difference,” explained astrologer Michael “WolfStar” O’Reilly, who wrote about Mr. Obama’s alleged campaign-trail exchange with the astrologer on his Web site, NeptuneCafe.com.
Mr. O’Reilly, who has been featured in The Wall Street Journal and is a weekly contributor to StarIQ.com, one of the Web’s most popular online sources of horoscope information, has his own theories on what all of this means for Mr. Obama.
“One of the problems with Obama is he has a progressed Mars in the 12th house—the house of secret enemies—and Mars is the warrior planet,” Mr. O’Reilly said. “And it’s forming some very hard aspects to Pluto, which is the warrior of his chart.” In other words, “he has some very powerful enemies.” More->

THE HOW AND WHY OF THE MAYAN END DATE IN 2012 A.D.
by John Major Jenkins
"Why did the ancient Mayan or pre-Maya choose December 21st, 2012 A.D., as the end of their Long Count calendar? This article will cover some recent research. Scholars have known for decades that the 13-baktun cycle of the Mayan "Long Count" system of timekeeping was set to end precisely on a winter solstice, and that this system was put in place some 2300 years ago.
This amazing fact - that ancient Mesoamerican skywatchers were able to pinpoint a winter solstice far off into the future - has not been dealt with by Mayanists. And why did they choose the year 2012? One immediately gets the impression that there is a very strange mystery to be confronted here." -Continued...

3/19/07 Solar Eclipse and Iran
The Mar. 19, 2007 solar eclipse(28 Pisces), fell near the Ascendant in Tehran, with Pluto on the Midheaven.
Eclipse Ascendant = 23 Pisces = Solar Eclipse at 28 Pisces.
Eclipse Midheaven = 26 Sagittarius = Pluto 28 Sagittarius.
If this eclipse foreshadows disastrous events in Iran, it looks like these may occur around the Mars-Pluto opposition of Sept. 21, 2007. This explosive opposition, will line-up with the eclipse chart meridian, as the Sun opposes the eclipse degree, and squares Pluto.
9/21/07 transits:
Mars = 26 Gemini = solar eclipse IC at 26 Gemini.
Pluto = 26 Sagittarius = solar eclipse MC at 26 Sagittarius.
Sun = 28 Virgo = eclipse 28 Pisces = eclipse Pluto at 28 Sag.
Eclipse Ascendant = 23 Pisces = Solar Eclipse at 28 Pisces.
Eclipse Midheaven = 26 Sagittarius = Pluto 28 Sagittarius.

Disaster in Sao Paulo
"Scores of people are feared dead after a passenger plane carrying 176 people crashed at Congonhas airport in Sao Paulo, Brazil, starting a major fire.
The TAM airlines Airbus A320 is thought to have slid off the end of the runway as it landed in very wet conditions. Concerns had been raised about the safety of the runway during heavy rain. There had been persistent, heavy rain in the two hours preceding the accident.
TAM Express flight 3054 was carrying 170 passengers and six crew when it attempted to land at Congonhas airport in the heart of Sao Paulo. After touching down on the airport's main runway at 1850 (2150 GMT), the passenger jet skidded before sliding across a busy road in a residential area. It then struck a depot used for storing cargo and some fuel.
Brazilian television has been showing pictures of a major fire at the scene and the emergency services have arrived in large numbers to deal with the aftermath of the accident. The weather had been bad for much of the day and there has been concern for some time about safety at Congonhas during heavy rain." (BBC News)
The Mar. 19, 2007 solar eclipse was a dramatic portent of disaster for Sao Paulo. The eclipse(28 Pisces) was square Pluto(28 Sagittarius), and Pluto was right on the Ascendant here. In hindsight, it's clear that this was a celestial sign of an extreme event, involving destruction and death(Pluto). The eclipse conjunction of Uranus with the Nodes, that aligned with the longitude of Sao Paulo- signaled upsets and disruptions(Uranus), to the masses(Nodes).
The 3/19/07 solar eclipse at Sao Paulo:
Midheaven = 17 Virgo = S.Node at 16 Virgo = Uranus at 15 Pisces.
Ascendant = 29 Sagittarius = Pluto at 29 Sag = Eclipse 28 Pisces.
The July 14 New Moon at Sao Paulo:
Midheaven = 8 Gemini, conjunct the Hyades cluster-the rainy stars. And wet conditions were a definite factor in this crash. The fateful Nodes of the Moon, were 2 min. from an exact square with the Midheaven. And the New Moon Ascendant = 29 Leo = Venus at 29 Leo, conjunct the royal star Regulus.

Quake Rocks Japan Nuclear Plant
"A strong earthquake struck northwestern Japan on Monday, causing a fire and radioactive water leak at the world's largest nuclear plant. At least eight people were killed and hundreds injured in the 6.8 magnitude quake that collapsed wooden houses, ripped apart roads and buckled seaside bridges.
Flames and billows of black smoke poured from the Kashiwazaki nuclear plant - the world's largest in terms of power output capacity. It took two hours to extinguish the fire in an electrical transformer, said Motoyasu Tamaki, a Tokyo Electric Power Co. official.
The plant leaked about 315 gallons of water, said Katsuya Uchino, another Tokyo Electric official. Uchino said the water contained a tiny amount of radioactive material and is believed to have flushed into the Sea of Japan."The radioactivity is one-billionth of the legal limit," Oshima said.
The quake, which left fissures 3 feet wide in the ground along the coast, hit shortly after 10 a.m. local time and was centered off Niigata state. Buildings swayed 160 miles away in Tokyo. Sirens wailed in Kashiwazaki, a city of about 90,000, which appeared to be hardest hit.
Japan's Meteorological Agency measured the quake at a 6.8 magnitude. Near midnight Monday, another 6.8-magnitude quake hit off Japan's west coast, according to the U.S. Geological Survey, which said the initial quake registered 6.7." (Associated Press)
The Cancer New Moon of July 14 was sharply focused in Kashiwazaki- near the earthquake's epicenter. The New Moon at 22 Cancer was directly on the Ascendant-Midheaven midpoint (AS/MC) at 22 Capricorn. Therefore, the seed energy of the New Moon, was linked to this time and place(AS/MC). And Jupiter- which conjoins the red star Antares on the 'nuclear axis', was at the Midheaven in the New Moon chart for Kashiwazaki(37n22-138e33).
We may see other major, nuclear related events through mid August, as Jupiter stations near Antares(Aug. 6), and will hover in it's vicinty(10 Sagittarius) for several weeks.
There is a prospect of further eruptions and upheaval in Japan. The Aug. 12/13 New Moon has Pluto anti-culminating in Tokyo, and square the Ascendant.
New Moon Midheaven = 26 Gemini 30 = Pluto 26 Sagittarius 28 = Ascendant 26 Virgo 50!
The Cancer ingress(Summer Solstice) angles conjunct Japan's chart angles, is one sign of major events in Japan this summer.
Japan- Feb. 11, 1889, 12 pm, Tokyo.
Midheaven = 19 Aquarius = Cancer ingress Midheaven 18 Aquarius.
Ascendant = 10 Gemini = Cancer ingress Ascendant 9 Gemini.
The Cancer ingress Ascendant conjoins the royal star Aldeberan, and the Descendant conjoins the royal star Antares. These stars at 10 Gemini and 10 Sagittarius respectively, define the nuclear axis.
The Sept. 30, 1999 nuclear accident in Nakaminato, Japan, had the Ascendant and Pluto at 8 Sagittarius opposite the Moon at 9 Gemini.
Data: Sept. 30, 1999, 10:35 am, JST, 140e36/36n21.
The Aug. 12/13 New Moon(20 Leo) opposes Neptune(21 Aquarius), and conjoins Japan's IC(4th house cusp), and the Cancer ingress IC. This looks like a trigger for extreme events in Japan.
And since Neptune is involved, some type of disaster involving water and/or flooding, is a real possiblility.

Who Controls the Planets?
"Astrology is also controlled by your karma. Why were you born at a certain time, in a certain place, under certain stars? Because it was your karma. So your astrological chart itself is a product of your karma. If you have good karma, you will be reborn on an auspicious day. Why is it that you born a Cancer, as a Libra, as a Gemini? You chose stars. You chose time. Some of you might say, "No. My doctor chose the time," but actually you made the doctor choose. Ultimately, it's all your own doing.
By changing your karma, you can change your horoscope. Maybe because of your past karma you have given room for some of the planets to control you. By developing stronger karma, you can change that, you can make it null and void. Then Saturn cannot affect you; Jupiter and Mars cannot affect you. You can command them. Astrology is completely powerless in front of your karma. You have the capacity to command your stars to move around.
A great saint used to say, "When I have the vision of the Lord always, what can these planets do to me? They have no power to affect me because I have taken refuge in the Lord." Who controls the planets? Who controls time? Who controls space? When you become the beloved of that Lord, all his servants will be ready to obey you."
(Swami Satchitananda)
A Life of Spiritual Vision
"The dedicated ever enjoy Supreme Peace. Therefore, live only to serve." H. H. Sri Swami Satchidananda often said these words in talks all over the world. These two beautiful sentences of guiding light are even more powerful coming from this being who lived them every day of his life.
Sri Gurudev was born on December 22nd in 1914 during the month known as Margali, the Dawn of the Devas."

LOTUS Bio for Gurudev- http://www.lotus.org/docs/bio.htm
Sri Gurudev was born around 11 pm in the city of Coimbatore. His birthchart reflects an incredibly powerful and compassionate soul, who practiced what he preached. The Sun-Mars conjunction(0 Capricorn = Aries point), opposite Saturn and Pluto, mirrors the indomitable will of one that lived only to serve a higher will and purpose. While his Pisces Moon indicates a universal empathy, and a capacity for selfless devotion. Gurudev's Virgo Ascendant shows his need to practically apply knowledge, in the spirit of karma yoga, to best serve others.
