Tuesday's Child

On Tuesday, October 17, 2006, 9:35 am, President Bush signed into Law the "Military Commissions Act of 2006" after it had been passed by both Senate and House. I made a note of it and sort of never looked at the chart. At the time it was called "The Military Torture Act of 2006" but the name has since been changed.

Just had a peeksy. O My God! What have we done now?

Mercury c. Jupiter conjunct Scorpio Ascendant squaring Saturn in Leo (H9 applying to MC) opposite Neptune in Aquarius (H3 applying to the IC).

The Moon is in Virgo conjunct the MC from the 10th house and otherwise unaspected.

Chiron is unaspected in the 3d house.

The Sun is conjunct Mars and Venus in H11, apex of a small triangle to Saturn-Pluto trine.

I've got to hand it to those torturers, they have good instincts for choosing dates. I won't say anything more, not with this chart. I'd confess to anything if trapped in a 5X7 cell with bright lights and big dough boy interrogators for 2 hours, let alone 6 years.
