Space Weather News for May 3, 2007 SpaceWeather.com
HALLEY'S METEORS: Earth is entering a stream of dust from Halley's Comet,
and this will produce a meteor shower (the "eta Aquarids") peaking on
May 6th. Unfortunately, moonlight will interfere with the display, wiping out all
but the brightest meteors. People who wake up before dawn on Sunday and look east
might nevertheless catch a few specks of Halley's Comet disintegrating in Earth's
atmosphere.
SPARKLING SUNSPOT: Sunspot 953, which emerged one week ago, has proven to be one
of the most photogenic sunspots in years. For one thing, it is crackling with micro
solar flares (sometimes called "Ellerman Bombs"); this makes the sunspot
appear to sparkle when viewed through the eye piece of a backyard solar telescope.
There's also an active magnetic filament winding outward from the sunspot's
dark core. So far, no major solar flares have issued from this active region, but
it's still a great show. Check SpaceWeather.com for the latest pictures
and movies.

some words on leadership from Golda Meir
A leader who doesn't hesitate before he sends his nation into battle isn't fit to be a leader.
-Golda Meir (natal Sun Taurus/Moon Libra = the practical realist)
No matter your opinion of the woman, she's correct on this point.

May 1, 2003's New Moon
On the morning of May 1, 2003, the day of Bush's Mission Accomplished propagandist stage craft, there was a New Moon 10Tau43 (8:14 am EDT.)
At the moment of the New Moon, the speculative, idealistic Jupiter/Neptune midpoint was focused upon it which gives us these pictures:
Jup/Neptune = Sun: irresponsibility; a squandering of physical strength; deceving or being deceived; potentially misguided states; trying to capture the essence of things; following a dream (George Quixote Bush?);
Jup/Nep = Moon: going with the wind; an emotional swoon; little sense of reality; losing oneself in plans; speculation; instability; wastefulness.
Jupiter that day was conj Bush's and the GOP's natal Mercury (thinking; communications; planning) so you know they were high on something--their own misdirected imaginings, as most people realize by now. And some of that Federalist political pretzel juice was being passed around, no doubt, laced with arrogance.
Your reluctant astrologer (moi) was watching the man with a sock stuffed into his stagey flightsuit--and watching an animated real-time chart (Solar Fire software) as he spoke with the planets rising, culminating, etc...ticking away our lives and our fortunes.
Also at the moment of the New Moon--what midpoint do you think was at MC, the WHY or Aspiration Point of the chart?
Our old friends, Uranus and Neptune, the New World Order duo...
Uran/Nep = MC: inner vision; guidance sought from never-before-tapped sources; a peculiar disposition and strange interests; unconsciousness (of reality? of practicality?); unawareness; mourning; dissolution; a nervous breakdown.
Yeah, May 1, 2003 was another day of grand imaginings and plans in Bush's bubble world.
So here we are at the 4th anniversary.
You may wish to remind yourself of who else wants a New World Order...it's John Paul II on Jan 1, 2004 representing the vatican...giving a globalist shout-out to his globalist buds...article link is in my post from Feb 2006 And Who Wants the NWO? The article's subtitle is darned catchy:
UN's failure to halt US war on Iraq leads to new initiative...does it, now?
That little theater presentation between Bush-Cheney and the UN leads to a NWO?? Puh! George must've kissed Rome's ring real sweet for that particular reach-around with the press in cahoots as usual.
And if you're willing you can revisit another SO'W post from Nov 2005 New World Order Oct 24, 1993 if you want to appreciate its baby horns and hooves...not that it wasn't in the works a long time before 1993--Family Planning!
And who can forget this oldy-but-not-so-moldy post from April 2006? Cheney and 911 which tells of mighty Dick's secondary progressed, and class warfare...chart set for 9/11/01.
Can't you hear them now?
George you go far away--down to Florida would be perfect--and be seen to be doing good...we'll round up some kids for you to read to...unaware and innocent-like...Mr. Unaware!
...kind of like the politicians and their ongoing Bible reading at the Capitol Building this week which culminates on Thursday, the National Day of Prayer.
Perhaps these political thespians will get to the part where Jesus cautioned about not praying in public, but going home, shutting the door and praying for your needs in private...think they'll get that far in their hypocritical charade?
Neither do I. But Pat Robertson is mighty proud of what they're doing...I heard him mention it on his tv show this morning. It's another Jupiter/Neptune set-up echoing from May 1, 2003!

things going well in Iraq
Bush Has Destroyed Iraq and America
By Paul Craig Roberts
The violence and killing that Bush brought to Iraq has spread antagonism between Sunni and Shiite throughout the Middle East with potentially draconian consequences. Bush's war has turned Muslim hearts and minds against America and made terrorism an acceptable means to resist American hegemony. With his mindless war, Bush has created more terrorism than the world has ever seen.

Sorry They've Been So Mean To You, George
By Ray McGovern
The role that Tenet, McLaughlin and their small coterie of malleable managers played as willing accomplices in the corruption of intelligence has made a mockery of the verse chiseled into the marble at the entrance to CIA headquarters: "You will know the truth, and the truth will set you free."

Anonymous Whistleblower at your service
The emailing Anonymous Whistleblower has caused Mr. Wolfowitz (defending his actions today with his World Bank colleagues) much trouble, although as we all must admit, troubles are most often self-created.
Wolfie (my affectionate name for the geezer) has decried the charges against him as an attempt to oust him from his cushy post (duh!) and says he "will not resign in the face of a plainly bogus charge of conflict of interest."
Oh great--if the hydra wins, the heads will sprout even more viciously and it makes you wonder how such a contentious appointment can flourish after the rest of the cat-birders show their colors against Wolfie's undoubtedly autocratic, high-handed rule.
Yet..."smear campaign" he whines! Ethics Panel, you say? Puh...we'll see if they boot him in the end. And Wolfie should recognize a smear campaign when he sees one--he's a cohort of Karl Rove!
Bush, of course, came out with the usual reach-around for the incompetent...once again, it takes one to recognize one.
The Superb Perps Line-up: Brownie, Gonzo, Rummy, Condi, and now Wolfie...those are only the ones who come to a bloggled mind just now...except for Bushie himself.
And then there's Shot Gun Dickie who is a royal pri*k among pri*cks doing what he loves--the pillaging and looting without conscience which passes for governmental expertise in the Bush administration.
So I ask you: what Wolfie did for his girlfriend's bank account, portfolio, and prestige: isn't it similar to what Bush did for Condi? It's just the rarified pot giving the autocratic kettle a reach-around...wink!

SO'W blog-note: it has been brought to my attention that SO'W is simply fraught with screaming typos..and after some consideration I may have figured out the deal--two or three hapless readers are getting my first publish before an EDIT appr 5 mins later. Sorry for that, but sometimes typos slip through until I can grab them on-screen...it's a truly bad habit and I will try to do better in future!
And There's More: this blog views best with IE (for me, Firefox is pretty jumbly here and elsewhere...how about you?); and no, T.K., my own version of 'Cowell' isn't pronounced like Simon's because around here it's Coh' wull...thanks much for asking! -jc
