When Sarah Palin recently quit her position as Governor of Alaska, I chuckled when I read headlines that “her future was unclear.” Palin has been receiving the triple conjunction of Jupiter, Chiron, and Neptune over her own Aquarian planets. Neptune tends to make the path ahead very unclear. Jupiter combined can bring out a glamorized illusion, contribute to promote a false appearance, and exaggerate everything. Chiron can give one a sense of “true purpose”, but is also relative to hurt feelings and emotional wounding. Her planets involved are the Sun, Mars and Saturn. This is her drive to make her place. The process is not fully complete, so we can expect more Sarah sightings and false claims in the coming weeks of August, with more to come clear into December.

Sarah is now (August 8, 2009) ranting that the Obama Health Care plan is pushing a “Death Plan.” She called the plan, “Just plain evil.” http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/32340009/ns/politics-white_house/

She did an interview holding her Down syndrome baby, facing lights and cameras, to claim that the government is going to decide who is worthy to live. Quite dramatic.

I have wondered a lot about Sarah Palin, who has five planets in Aquarius (a sign of humanitarianism) but seems incredibly lacking in honesty and integrity. The down and dirty truth here is that Sarah lacks true compassion for her fellow humans. She has a strong militaristic elitist orientation. I could go on about her natal horoscope, in simple terms, though Sarah is very much a person who will do what she thinks she has to do to get what she wants. Her militaristic ideals include lenient gun laws.

In contrast, Sarah Palin is also easily influenced by outside authorities, when there is a similar alignment in worldview. This is how she is so quickly rising to public notice and gaining some influence in the hard-right Republican favor. It is quite natural for her to be the spokes person for fear mongering that follows the party script. Rush Limbaugh and Sarah are joining forces with ExxonMobil to obstruct legislation on global warming. Obviously, the two are ready agents for the large corporate interests against the interests of a better life for the masses.

Now, Limbaugh has a huge influence over the thinking process of a large segment of the population. His horoscope has some strong contacts to the USA horoscope (Sibley). He has rational practicality mixed with a certain level of human compassion that Sarah completely lacks. Limbaugh has a way of reaching out to people that can feel personal and connected. I am truly not a fan, but by comparison, I can see that Limbaugh has a solid niche’ because of the way he can bring his personality out to reach people. Like Sarah, he has a knack for stirring up anger and frustration in the American people he talks to daily. They are both good at stoking the fire with fabrications that take every issue over the edge.

One point that I want to make about the American people as represented by the Moon in the national horoscope is that there is little support to the intelligence of the people. The people in general are disconnected from the overall process of running the country. We are essentially the taxable masses, with very little voice, except through acting out. The lax voter attitude is so strong among the lower economic levels of society that it takes something big to fight about before the American citizens really get involved. If you tell convincing lies to the less educated, and more emotionally and religiously fervent, they will believe them. This is the target audience of the campaign against health care reform.

This is going to be an interesting month of August. Just to challenge my own statement above, let’s watch what is uncovered about the town hall meetings that are being disrupted by “disgruntled citizens.” Rachel Maddow, of MSNBC, interviewed Tim Phillips, pres. of Americans For Prosperity on Friday, August 7. Rachel calls attention to Phillips and his groups as the instigators of these disruptive groups at town hall meetings to block serious discussion of the issues. It is quite eye opening to see that what is being played as concerned citizens participating in the political process is really, as Rachel said, “a sophisticated, well-funded program to promote the intentions of their clients.” Phillips said it was a good way to dramatize the issues using “real people.”

Seriously, there is so much Neptunian energy going on right now we can only see it for what it is….a movie. (A political horror movie.)
