Today’s post is one I’d prefer to skip but since it concerns the Solar Eclipse of July 1, 2011 @ 9Can12 and deeply affects America’s natal chart, my fret is that it cannot be avoided and must be addressed on Stars Over Washington.With America’s birthday coming on July 4th (Sun 13Can+ depending on the birth time you use: today I’m looking at our nation’s horoscope for July 4, 1776 5:10 pm EDT

Virgo/Pisces Eclipses: Fault Lines
Oh yeah. Eclipses. They rattle us because they remind us where the bones are buried. They haunt our sensitive spots and tap on the trick knees of our psyches with the tiny ball peen hammer of fate until eventually – reflexively – we shoot right through the ceiling.
Solar Eclipse January 4, 2011: from May 2011’s perch
This week has been busy to the point of very little blogging time (day job, you know) and today, Friday May 6, 2011, is more of same.Making a flash appearance here to moderate comments, I find some interest has occurred in a previous post still current by topic which concerns America and the Solar Eclipse of January 4, 2011, the Series in which the world now twists and turns.The post includes
Timeline of the bin Laden assassination: Pluto Rising
Here’s NPR’s timeline of the May 1st raid on Osama bin Laden’s compound in Abbottabad, Pakistan (his hidey-hole – considerably ritzier than Saddam Hussein’s had been.)Though I’ve been studying horoscopes of the event I’ve held back from posting about it and have since found it better to use the chart provided by Bernadette Brady with Moon 24Ari08 and 8Cap39 rising with saboteur and assassin Pluto

The US government-Branch Davidian stand-off which history calls the Siege at Waco began on February 28, 1993, ended on April 19, 1993, and was shown live on TV in the US around the clock, as I remember (or perhaps it only seemed that way. We were more easily shocked back then – and perhaps shocking the public was part of the motivation.)The 50-day Waco stand-off happened within a certain Solar

Having to be out of town most of the day today there was no time to scribble on, scan, save, and publish a horoscope of NYC’s awful March 25, 1911 Triangle Shirtwaist Fire, aka, the Triangle Factory Fire in which a total of 146 people – women and a few men – perished, most of whom were young immigrants.If you wish to set up the chart, I suggest using 4:00 pm or thereabouts for that seems to have

(Astro-Note: constellation Virgo and its stars have particular significance for the founding of America including the related archetype for nurturing asteroid Ceres (‘security concerns’) which in America’s natal chart, conjoins our
