Live Earth in the Age of Aquarius
On the magical day of 7/07/07, rock concerts were held on seven
continents in an effort to persuade people and governments to go
green. Two billion Live Earth viewers listened to some of our planet's
most popular rock stars, while Al Gore and others appealed for
action on global warming. The high-tech links bridged national,
ethnic, and religious borders in a sure sign that we're nearing
the Age of Aquarius.
The seminal event for such global affairs was the Concert for Bangladesh,
which was held on August 1, 1971 (London, 12:00 pm). This horoscope
features an altruistic Jupiter-Neptune conjunction in the second
house of money, but the millions raised were locked up for years
by the IRS: Pluto, the ruler of the second house, is in the twelfth
house of imprisonment. Also, Saturn in the eighth house of taxes,
opposes Jupiter and Neptune.
However, the Concert for Bangladesh chart shows several celestial
signatures which have been repeated in subsequent global concerts.
Several planets, Fortuna and the Lunar Node axis highlight the
Leo-Aquarius polarity, showing how superstars (Leo) bask in mass
approval, networked together by innovative technology (Aquarius).
The same Leo-Aquarius polarity was present in the July 13, 1985
Live Aid concert, as well as Live Earth.
Ceres, as the natural ruler of aid, has been prominently featured
in all the global concerts. In both the Bangladesh and Live Aid
concerts, Ceres in nurturing Cancer reflected the need for physical
aid. At the Live Earth concert, Ceres was in earthy Taurus, showing
the need to help our planet. Astrologers can tell that the Live
Earth concert is the next step in an awakening global consciousness,
since Pluto exactly squares the Pluto in George Harrison's Bangladesh
concert.
Top-Tier Democrats Raise $62 Million
As President Bush's approval rating sinks to the lowest of any
president in history, Americans are leaning increasingly toward
Democrats to take the White House in 2009. Hillary Clinton came
in second behind Barack Obama in primary money raised in the second
quarter, but the top three took in $62 million, while the top three
Republican candidates took in only $40 million.
Barack Obama (August 4, 1961; 1:06 pm*; Honolulu, HI) led the pack
with an astonishing $32 million raised over the last three months.
His natal chart features electric Uranus in the tenth house of
reputation and public image, where it opposes the U.S. Moon, giving
him the kind of refreshing, revolutionary aura that promises radical
change. Uranus to the U.S. Moon is the astrological key to his
success.
Obama's progressed Venus is now virtually exactly opposite the
U.S. Moon, and just past his natal Uranus, a three-planet combination
that defines his broad financial support. This very fortunate alignment
begins to wane in August, but in 2008, Obama's progressed Ascendant
will be trine his Uranus, at the same time transiting Uranus is
trine his Scorpio Ascendant - all assuring ongoing excitement
about his candidacy.
Hillary Clinton (October 26, 1947; 8:00 am*; Chicago, IL) joined
her husband Bill in Iowa last week, evoking the concept of a co-presidency.
Transiting Pluto will be passing back and forth across Hillary's
Juno (her marriage asteroid), at the same time that her progressed
Juno is sextile her Ascendant. Bill Clinton will be the key to
her success or failure, as the strategists weigh how much of Bill
is a good thing and how much is too much.
The Fairy-Tale Wedding: Eva Longoria and Tony Parker
Desperate Housewives star Eva Longoria and her MVP beau Tony Parker
were married Saturday in a Parisian church that used to serve French
royals. The lavish, fairy-tale wedding was attended by numerous
mega-stars, viewed by hundreds of celeb-watchers, and protected
by dozens of beefy guards and secret police. The party continued
at Vaux-le-Vicomte, a nearby 17th-century chateau.
Eva Longoria was born with her Sun and Jupiter in faith-oriented
Pisces (March 15, 1975; Corpus Christi, TX; time unknown), a celestial
influence which was made evident by her traditional (if not fabulous)
wedding ceremony. Over the last two years, transiting Pluto has
been squaring her Sun-Jupiter, transforming her life into a world-renown
celebrity. The love of her life** also arrived, as her progressed
Sun was conjunct Venus.
Love and marriage are two different facets of relationship, and
for marriage we look at Juno. Eva's Juno is found in traditional,
solid Taurus, but opposes independent Uranus. This natal configuration
does not bode well for a long-term commitment, unless they feel
comfortable spending long periods away from each other. Juno-Uranus
can also point to very different ethnic backgrounds or age differences
between the partners.
Tony Parker (May 17, 1982; Bruges, Belgium; time unknown) has Juno
in Capricorn and square Saturn, a double message which deeply values
commitment. Tony and Eva have mutual Jupiter-Uranus aspects (his
Jupiter conjunct her Uranus, her Jupiter trine his Uranus), an
exciting interchange which thrives on being in the limelight. However,
mutual Venus-Saturn aspects mean that if they spend several weeks
alone together, the thrill may quickly dissolve into stagnation.
