Hi there,

I enjoyed this post, but I would like to point out that America is a republic, not a democracy: http://www.lexrex.com/enlightened/AmericanIdeal/aspects/demrep.html — thanks.

The interesting conclusion that I reached is that a Democracy is like a wild card. You can´t put it in any fixed place. A democracy can be anything, …. if the majority chooses a Bush or a Hitler ……… or an Obama……

Society, they say, is usually ruled by the lowest level of judgment, a democracy shows you exactly what that is.

We are all servants of the Law in order that we may be free. – Cicero

There are spiritual Laws, there are physics Laws, there are traffic Laws, there are dietary Laws (or used to be), there is the Rule of Law (or used to be) …… among many, many others.

Nowadays people tend to think, things are a matter of sentiment, or of opinion. Some say " what really matters is, of course, a matter of opinion", I would say it is a matter of Law.

Can´t pass that red traffic light as "a matter of opinion".

The Aquarian Age to me is all about rediscovering Freedom through understanding Universal Laws.

Politically it can´t be found if you don´t know what the Center is, and a democracy is like playing the Russian roulette.

"Right interpretation of the necessity for limitation in any form of manifested existence is the secret of dominion.

Wrong interpretation of the same thing is the cause of our slavery to conditions. The clue to the right understanding is the aphorism,

He who would rule Nature must first obey her laws”.

Thank you. <br />Re: health care reform, it’s such a big issue, with so much money and jobs involved that it’s proper to take more time about it (and hold the senatorial sellouts up to ridicule). As for rejiggering “skewed situations,” part of the Saturn return process, I think, is another round of reconfiguring federal vs. state power. To my mind, this is a major aspect of Obama’s first term, which began in the midst of a north node solar eclipse on the USA south node in Aquarius: a new unum/pluribus relationship beginning to take shape.<br />I’ve read more than a bit about California’s paralysis, but I don’t have the astro correspondences for how the state (recently referred to as America’s first “failed state”) got into such a mess. Could you post something about the key stages -- the ballot initiatives, etc.?<br />Here in Minnesota, it’s also a bad budget situation, partly because our ever-coy boy “governor” has spent his two terms after three-way races running for US Senator and President. Meanwhile, bridges fall down or are closed, cities have to lay off workers and let the potholes become craters, mental patients get thrown on the street -- little things like that keep happening, as Neptune and Chiron square the hefty Taurus-Scorpio axis in the state’s chart.<br />I think you’re quite right: the shift of Saturn into Libra is a big one, but remember, we’re not finished with Virgo. And again re: health care reform, check out the sky for the Saturn station next May 30. It’s quite dramatic, especially when compared to the USA Sibley chart. (I touch on the Saturn in Libra significance --shameless plug here -- in the latest post on my own blog astroplethorama.blogspot.com ) Another stimulating and well-written post, Jessica. Thank you.
