Gone With the Wind

Yesterday was a blast, literally. During the day the Stock Market gave up the rest of its fancy 400 plus points gain of 2 days before. It did this even after Bernanke bailed out a bank, something which I have now read hasn't been done since the Great Depression. Some economists and commentators have begun to tell everyone to bail. All this while Taurus rises as the Stock Market opens. The Sun-Moon and Pluto were in t-square in the Resource Houses in yesterday's chart (Moon in H2, Pluto in H8 and Sun in H11). The missing leg was the 5th House and let me tell you, this slide was NO FUN. I was literally walking down the Street humming "Send in the Clowns." The Moon was approaching conjunction with Mars (turbulent emotions). And Venus was opposing Saturn. Otherwise there were some real nice trines. Those who sold knowing that they are safe, and those who are in denial and figuring this is another blip.

I don't know what I'm talking about here. For guidance read Ray Merriman's column.

So that's not all. Last night I turn on the TV to watch my boyfriend Larry King and some guy's standing outside of the CNN headquarters and it looks like the Civil War has broken out. People had been sitting in their rooms in the hotel across the street and the windows literally blasted out of the rooms! Crap was scattered all over the street. People were roaming around in their bathrobes crying. Two Basketball games had been interupted with around 18,000 fans at one Dome and around 16,000 fans at another Dome. They were roaming around. Unfortunately two people died and many more were injured.

I can't imagine. A 200 foot wide storm pounding through the downtown of a major city going around 130 mph!

There was apparently only a 8 minute warning. The Storm Prediction Center had announced a "slight risk" (2 percent chance) that Atlanta would be hit by a tornado at 9 pm. The warning came at 9:26pm. The Tornado came at 9:45 pm. Wait, that's more than an 8 minute warning. Hmmm, well, around that time. CNN must have been my source, hehehehe.

So, surprise! The Sun is still conjunct Uranus, planet of Sudden events. The only square in this chart is from the Sun to Pluto (planet of mass destruction).

Libra was Rising somewhere and Cardinal Signs were on all the angles.

And so a biggee here is the conjunction of Moon to Mars in Cancer. They are both still out of bounds and opposing Pluto, more volatility. People birthing babies right now had better be prepared to parent these kids very very carefully because this is going to be a big group of toddlers swinging bats otherwise. I'm staying way the hell out of Wal-Mart for the next couple of years.

In this chart, this volatile combo are in the Mystic Rectangle sextiling/trining the Venus-Saturn opposition. You've got a violent water opposition playing happy with a stuffy earth opposition and the Sun-Uranus & Pluto screaming Surprise all the while! I guess that's good turbo. Don't really see the mysticism in the Mystic Rectangle though.

And then we see how it's connected with Atlanta's chart:

Atlanta, GA
inc. Dec. 29, 1847

Sun 8 Capricorn, Moon probably Libra, NN 5 Libra

So, Atlanta's a Cardinal sign town. One can see right away that the transiting opposition of Moon-Mars to Pluto is harshly aspect Atlanta's Sun, NN and possibly Moon. It's hooked right in. Atlanta's under other major aspects right now.

The Surprise element seems to come from Atlanta's progressed Sun which is at 17 Gemini squaring t.Uranus at 19 Pisces-t.Sun 25 Pisces.

The t. North Node is conjunct Atlanta's natal Neptune at 29 Aquarius. Atlanta is approaching it's Neptune Return.

And Atlanta is going through a Saturn opposition. (Natal Saturn at 9 Pisces) Saturn is the planet of preparation and warning so I was hoping to find it vulnerable and was not disappointed here.
