Wow! A Heads-Up:
As I updated my blog Woolly Mammoth Chronicles just now I ran across news of an event being held on Saturday May 25, 2013, the very day of a Lunar Eclipse!

by Jude Cowell
On Friday May 10, 2013, the IRS scandal was outed during the typical Washington ‘Friday afternoon news dump’ and on Monday May 13, 2013, the AP reporters and editors communications scandal broke from its surly bonds. And of course, the GOP’s much-touted Benghazi ‘scandal’ is already in the wind in ways that
May 25, 2013 Lunar Eclipse Conjoins Election 2012’s Mercury Station Rx
by Jude Cowell
Other than the political besieging of President Obama currently en vogue with his Republican opponents concerning Benghazi, IRS targeting of the tax status of ‘Tea Party’ and ‘Patriot’ groups, and more, it remains to be seen how or if the May 25, 2013 Lunar Eclipse @4Sag08 will affect the second term of
According to a surgeon’s recent review of his Civil War medical records, the third most prevalent reason for death during the war was the cause of Confederate General Stonewall Jackson’s demise after ‘friendly fire’ had felled him as he returned from scouting enemy lines on the night of May 2, 1863.

David Stockman, former congressman and budget director for Ronald Reagan, has done our nation a tremendous service with his book The Great Deformation: The Corruption of Capitalism in America.
Astrologers will recognize (and many have written the last few years on the topic) that transformative, destructuring Pluto, now in Capricorn (sign of government, law, business–and capitalism) is slowly
On TV yesterday I watched a goodly portion of Darrel Issa’s witch-hunting Benghazi hearing. So far my favorite news report on the hearing is Jon Stewart’s coverage which you see here and my favorite part of that is Mr. Stewart pointing out how Republicans and their news buddies have been working so hard to make the tragic September 11, 2012 attack/s on our embassy seem hugely worse and more

As previously covered (horoscope shown), the money sign of Taurus, with its dark side of greed, stubbornness, and intolerance, hosts a Solar Eclipse this Thursday (May 9th, or 10th, depending on your location/time zone) @19Tau31. That’s Taurus the Bull, of course, which brings in Wall Street implications along
Since we’re now in the contentious throes of the Cardinal Square between generational planets Uranus the rebel and Pluto the wealth manipulator (uprisings, protests, and strikes until 2015–ancient v new), here is an excerpt from my 2010 post concerning the Kent State Massacre of May 4, 1970 with today the tragic event’s 43rd anniversary–I remember watching in on TV and despising Richard Nixon:
An Astrological Investigation of Senator Ted Cruz
by Jude Cowell
In August 2012, NPR called Ted Cruz a Rising GOP Star (click for text or audio) but his star may be twinkling a bit off-and-on these days, a condition which is quite appropriate for a man born with Saturn Rx in stubborn Taurus opposite Mars, Venus, and Jupiter in Scorpio!
