Small world - September 1998 (3 issues; BILL CLINTON DATA)

September 1998

Hallo folks!

Back to something nearer normal now. Did you all have a good Conference? Sorry I couldn't make it this year too much going on but the programme looked very good.

Isn't it wonderful science finds Mars smothered in iron ore so copious that its dust turns the sky pink, and now that the Moon, mistress of tides, "has six billion metric tons of water" possibly forming deposits of solid ice. Do we now wait for the discovery of copper sulphate crystals beautifying the secret surfaces of Venus? Lead emissions from Saturn? Lakes of liquid gold at the heart of the Sun?

Planets got into the Daily Mail on August 31st; one Derek Shuff of Northiam wrote, "May I respectfully suggest that if anyone, including Prince Charles, wants to remember quickly and accurately the nine planets in order from the Sun (Letters) they would find it easier using the sentence: 'Make Valerie Eat Meat, John Says U Need Protein.' ... This nine word sentence is surely easier to learn than a 138 word story line. It has always worked for me, but ask me to remember a family birthday and I find it impossible." Not too good for the amnesiac veggies among us! Anyone out there got a more enticing and creative mnemonic? Not that we should actually need one! And what do you all do to prevent the awful embarrasssment of neglecting birthdays of Nearest and Dearest while up to your ears in everyone else's?

On September 3rd a book arrived in the mail that I had ordered ages ago from a new book club, "Shrines of Our Lady" by Peter Mullen. Out of interest I did the chart for its arrival at 12 20 BST. Sure enough, there gracing the tropical Desc from both the Helio and the Sidereal was a close conjunction of Maria and Isis ... with Jesus' Nativity Sun degree setting! Not only that, but their Draconic conjunction (opposite Pluto) was right on the Sidereal Moon, and the Tropical position close to the Draco Gemini Asc, while Mary fell only 2 degrees from the draco Asc. The trop. Moon in 0 Aquarius with Neptune was conjunct Yeshuhua (Jesus) opposite Sidereal Venus, still in orbs of the joined meridian and Node axes. Charis (grace) and Veritas (truth) were at the IC, and Donna (Madonna) conjunct Sun. These shrines are of course places of pilgrimage and sure enough, there also was Pellegrini setting, with the road, Chemin, rising! Finally, in the Midheaven was a wonderful constellation of Christa, Amor, Victoria, Raphaela (the great healing angel) and for good measure Josephus Flavius the historian who chronicled the events of Jesus' trial and crucifixion.

This is no trivial pattern. My own name was also rising with Chiron and Sidereal Mary. While neither the Divine nor most of us treading our own paths seek to deflect others from their proper routes onto our own, it is clear that here at least for me and for those of you who are of a similar persuasion, is a powerful message of encouragement to trust the work of the Divine Woman and Christ in the modern world, and to find spiritual refreshment in the places whose atmosphere sings with their incredible energy. Fresh from 11 days in Lourdes, I say amen to that!

As work now calls, there will be quite a breather between this short issue and the next. So fear not this isn't the start of an inundation! Meanwhile, do email SMALL WORLD with any ideas and feedback you like, and let me know if you want it included in the next issue.


God bless,

Pam


Thursday September 10th ...

Welcome, my friends, to the BILL CLINTON SPECIAL!

Is there truly anything more to be said about this man? well, tomorrow the fat goes into the fire as the Monica Lewinsky report is presented to Congress, and I thought you would all like to know what is going on with the President of the USA.

Interestingly, it is less the Solar Returns that spell trouble in store for Bill, despite the eclipse so close to his Sun at the end of August. Guess where we find the full, unexpurgated script for this year's drama? Have you ever tried the Annual Tertiaries? No? Then maybe Bill's True Tertiary for this year's birthday/birthtime will stir you to action; this is what we find...

Virtually a copy of his natal Sidereal angles (of which, more anon!!!), with Uranus in Gemini in the Midheaven opposite Sagittarius Moon at the IC, square the rising Virgo Mercury/Jupiter conjunction so a year dogged again by The Woman, private life exposed to the public, radical change in his goals and/or worldly position, plus huge amounts of verbal, political, economic ducking and diving, negotiating and manoeuvring. Sun conjunct Neptune in the 1st house unsettling his security, blurring his sense of identity, perpetuating pretence and self glorification in his flight from the realities that hound him.

Pretty good, eh? But now just take a look at those asteroids. Was there ever such an accurate script for a man who would be adored by his country and the world, being confronted by his prosecutors and forced into telling the whole sorry and bawdy truth about the relationship that is now unseating him? Is he ever dredging the dictionary and his own rhetorical skills to prop up his damaged image? What a debt of karma is building here, and what a temptation to sublimate his personal war in more attacks on real or imagined enemies!

We have: MC and Uranus conjunct Adorea, Gaea (and, ominously, Schadow); at the IC with the Moon, Martir, Amor and necessarily Probitas; Sun/Neptune opposite Lucifer (!) and conjunct Lowengrub (which is german for "Lions' Den", which is likely to be both his own playpen as it were and the nightmare into which he, his lies and his pride are being thrust, the power pack with its claws unsheathed.) Rising is the impressive collection of Monica, Veritas, Lilith, Imago, Rabelais, and Nietzsche in confrontation with the setting Hooveria (FBI), Starr (the chief prosecutor) and Bellona. He still thinks he is Superman. But in the S.Node in the 5th (surprise, surprise!) with Pravdo ("truth" in Russia in case you'd forgotten) is Multatuli, which means a heavy burden of debt to bear.

Will our hero pull off the Great Escape? Wait for next weeks (?) thrilling instalment!

Now, because it's getting late and I want you to get this on time, it must be on its way. But tomorrow I shall follow this appetiser with the banquet of Bill Clinton's astonishing interdimensional birth chart, his destiny mapped out ineradicably in the asteroids.


Happy Friday!

BILL CLINTON SPECIAL Part Two...

Dear Friends

Yesterday's Part One is repeated here for the benefit of our new subscribers - welcome and enjoy!

It is also necessary to apologise to those of you who have tried replicating the following chart; it is of course the converse chart. Sorry! It was late, and my brain was fried.

"Is there truly anything more to be said about this man? well, tomorrow the fat goes into the fire as the Monica Lewinsky report is presented to Congress (this is a whole new slant on putting a Bill before the House!), and I thought you would all like to know what is going on with the President of the USA.

Interestingly, it is less the Solar Returns that spell trouble in store for Bill, despite the eclipse so close to his Sun at the end of August. Guess where we find the full, unexpurgated script for this year's drama? Have you ever tried the Annual Tertiaries? No? Then maybe Bill's True Tertiary ( converse ) for this year's birthday/birthtime will stir you to action; this is what we find...

Happy Friday! here we go!


THE TROPICAL CHART

First of all, we tackle that famous Tropical chart with its glamorous Libran Mars/Neptune rising conjunct Venus. Very pretty. That's the Geo version. The Sun/Moon square from 8th to 11th signals hiccups in relationship, but millions of us have quarter Moons and survive. Did you check out the Helio? Now here's a shift Mars, from apparent weakness in Libra, startles by moving into Jupiter's new territory at the start of Scorpio ... and squares Saturn. Venus goes angular, approaching the Geo IC in 1 Capricorn. Very un Libran. And this is the real engine of our lives, the Helio. It's like the furiously paddling underwater feet of the gliding swan! Bill has engine trouble. He may come across as innocuous charm incarnate, but below the surface in the secret self, under the hood, he needs and longs to get under the sheets. A Mars Jupiter man has a strong sexuality; and a square from Saturn in 10th sets desire on a collision course with duty. Psychologically, he may be anxious enough to have to keep proving his own virility to himself, since Mars at ods with either Saturn or Neptune finds it hard to sustain energy; nervous or physical exhaustion can plague the man or woman with this kind of pattern, and there is the need to try all the harder to compensate. Frustration is hard to take, and as a result folk with a Mars-Saturn block on powerful drives can become overly assertive, pushy, aggressive, even violent. There's a lot going on under that barely ruffled exterior. And Helio Mercury now in Aries opposite Chiron, will insist on pushing its own point of view to anyone who will listen; Mercury-Chiron clashes don't take counsel easily from others.

DWADS

In Small World we do dwads, too, to zoom in on the fingerprints of the chart. In the Helio chart, Bill Clinton has dwad Capricorn Mercury conj. Neptune with radix Venus at the geo IC. Yes, that can represent a romantic ideal of physical beauty ... and it can also betray a self justifying flight from truth. There is a light and a dark side to all our patterns. The Geo chart dwads are incredibly busy: Mercury's dwad in the 1st degree of Scorpio meets the helio Mars/Jupiter square Saturn and now is having to face up to the heavy weight of T Saturn opposite in Taurus. The Capricorn IC adds to its collection an embrace by dwad Moon and N.Node opposite dwad S.Node/Jupiter at the MC; and you may or may not have noticed that the sidereal transiting Saturn/Neptune square is stirring up that partcular mud, at the same time as it threatens the Mars/Neptune/ASC/DESC. No surprise, then, to find dwad Mars itself in the Sag. S. Node connected to a tight dwad conjunction of Pluto and Neptune. Opposite this Mars is the dwad Sun in 12 Gemini in 9th (manhood, power, initiative, leadership, winning, courage ... and international relations ... are such a dominant issue), in turn close to the dwad Desc at 6 degrees. Here is where the Pluto transit is hitting home hard, and won't let up until it is past the S.Node in 18 Sagittarius and debts have one way or the other been paid.

The Dwad shows us something akin to the Idea behind the Form of the Radix, and should be calculated to the degree/minute to yield its information effectively. Approximations are unnecessary, and only second best. Look at Clinton's recently eclipsed Sun: it is joined by dwad Saturn with less than a degree of orb to square a Moon now conjunct dwad Chiron. Here at last is an emerging picture of personal pain, a learning curve in relationships necessitated by his vanity, a drive to control, and the constant challenge to self discipline from the "temptations of the Flesh."

THE DRACONIC ISSUES

The Sun comes even more dramatically into focus as we open the Draconic zodiac to look at the principles he has built into himself as a soul and brought with him this time around. For here it is again in Gemini, in 9th, marking Bill Clinton as a negotiator, a figure on the world stage but at 7 degrees, and right in T Pluto's firing line. This embattled President is getting a double whammy of T Pluto to Sun! And it's escalating. Meanwhile, the Draconic transit of Pluto is about to hit all his Tropical angles from 5 Cancer, peaking the first week of October '98. (Notice also that in April this year Dr. Jupiter went over his rising cluster as Dr. Chiron hit that Dr.Sun; then in May/June Dr. Neptune passed over his Leo Sun as Dr. Uranus squared the Dr. Gemini Sun from 7 Virgo where it has now returned! Come November, this Uranus will have moved right onto his Tertiary Converse ASC and all it is carrying, plus well, wait a paragraph or so!)

Getting back to Draco, Dr. Gemini Sun folk are here as communicators, movers and shakers. They are the speakers, thinkers, writers, speech therapists, driving instructors, linguists, switchboard operators, greeters, mailmen, etc etc. A very dear friend of mine, born a day after Bill Clinton with different angles, is a superb linguist, taught languages, and during a low period filled in as a Post Office counter clerk. And incidentally, this is why all those earnest attempts at statistical proof using professions and Sunsigns were doomed from the start; briefly, you'll get far more useful information from the Draconic and the Sidereal, as respectively they carry vocation and social role, to which the Tropical then adds inclinations and aptitudes.) So our Bill, in a fix, will always fall back on the thing that matters most and has ever supported him as surely as the ringed trunk supports the gale torn tree words. But Pluto may teach him that fine words may not always be enough. There has to be real sincerity, genuine contrition and humbling of an arrogant soul.

The Ascendant cluster goes into Cancer; he will try for the emotional appeal. And the Moon is in 2 Pisces in the tropical 5th. I am beginning to feel quite sorry for Bill, because men with Pisces Moons are emotionally very vulnerable, however tough they try to appear. In a word, Bill is a pushover for romance. With him it's not just a physical romp, an exciting fling; he actually believes in romantic liaison, hearts and flowers, candlelight and soft music, making love to the beautiful woman of his dreams. The idealisation of womanhood that goes on here becomes embarrassing often, when the beloved finds herself put on such a high pedestal that she can no longer live up to the ideal without pretending to be something she isn't and losing a grip on reality. So these romances sadly, frequently fail.

In Bill Clinton's case, the picture is more complicated than this, and it may be that Pisces means the thrills of secrecy which, along with its deceits and machinations, cannot be sustained. There is no doubt however that in his soul Bill Clinton is feeling deeply hurt as he comes to terms with this damaging weakness in his emotional nature.

THE BIG PICTURE

It's time to open right up to the whole fourfold wheel, combining the tropical geo and helio with both Draconic and Sidereal.

This man holds one of the most powerful positions in the world. His role takes precedence over his personal concerns, as with any public figure. This is why the Sidereal chart should take precedence over the Tropical and Draconic, even though all interconnect. So in the quadriwheel the Sidereal goes at the centre. You will usually find that the person whose Sidereal angles collect many planets from the other three levels, is here to focus primarily on their public role.

What do we find in the pattern for Bill Clinton?

What we have is a set of Sidereal angles that closely match those crucial converse Tertiaries for his 1998 birthday. The Asc is the same 11 Virgo, with the conjunct planets running through the same sign. My linguist friend actually ended up as a skilled homoeopath; his draconic aptitudes alone never led to a lasting profession. He had to go out and use all that fastidious earth he never realised was there! Now as an Englishwoman somewhat out of touch with the finer details of US politics, I cannot comment on how the President has honoured his Virgo stellium so far please enlighten me! But the Sun remains in Leo, at 2 degrees, conjunct tropical Saturn and Draco Chiron/Jupiter, marking him out as indeed a born leader, organiser, exemplar, establishment figure, in whose life serious duty is central, and to whom the building of bridges of trust, of information, of resources, of understanding is profoundly important. Now we can look at other details, some asteroids that stand out here: with that Tropical Saturn are Prudentia and Goodman, and opposite is Draconic Russia; we can see virtues emerging here that have led him into and sustained him so far in the Presidency and the public's goodwill. But the transits of Tropical Saturn and Neptune are hitting this axis now, and his own pedestal is wobbling badly. Saturn hasn't yet even finished with his 26 Aries Sidereal Moon, conjoined from 23 and 24 degrees with asteroids Prey (!), Ireland, and Imago , also Epikouros and Jetta at 27 degrees not till January '99. He has a lot to lose, self indulgence has to end, and we are not yet at the climax of his drama.

The Sidereally beleaguered Tropical angles carry Sidereal Saturn on the MC (shades of the Queen's culminating Saturn) adding to his burdens, with a helio conjunction of Vaino and Williams at the IC square Tropical Asc and Virtus, Helio Interposita, and setting Tropical Clintford with Helio Russia and Draco Uranus. Here are his names on the angles, with a clear indication of a genuine, deep, purposive drive to act as an intermediary in Russia's difficulties plus this uncomfortable mixture of virtue and underlying vanity.

HEADING FOR THE CLIMAX

The main story, the thickest part of the script for Bill Clinton's life and presidency is discovered as I had expected from past experience on the Sidereal angles themselves.

Precisely to the minute on the 12 Gemini MC is the 12 Gemini trop. dwad Sun, with the Draco Sun close by. As you will find if you put interdimensional astrology into practice, these are the angular Suns you find describing royalty as well as presidents and other high profile, high achieving individuals or organisations. It is this crucially important axis and its squaring Asc/Desc that has begun the Pluto process this year of personal exposure, purging and renewing. What is normally a desperate private trauma in most peoples' experience, becomes public humiliation possibly to the point of political death for this man, as it all happens on the Sidereal, public angles where we find the following:

MC and two Suns conjunct Alcock, Randi, Pawlowia, Buffon, Fama, Polites, Prometheus, Atlantis, Pax, Dionysus, Draco dwad Clintford and the tight helio pairing of Tacitus and Blarney! opposite, at the IC ( and also close to the S. Node/dwad Mars ) helio Galante, Monica and Paula, Tropical Cupido, Achilles (heel?!), Pyrrhus (we all know what kind of victory he ended up with), Lilith and Lysistrata (hell hath no fury like a woman's scorn), and Mori (even the polls will let him down in the end.) Also in the sky at the IC we find Sidereal Descamisada (who takes his shirt off), Lowengrub (that private den again), Crimea (was there a crime?) and at home with him Hilaritas.

Rising: bodily with Sid. Mars etc, we find Lust, Delila, and Anhalt (arrest); Draconic Monica and Williams; Tropical Perepadin (one who insists on going his own way), Haupt (the boss man), and Starr, all with the Trop. dwad MC to boot; and helio Hybris. Setting opposite these are draco Nietzsche with Tropical Legia (laws) and threatening Damocles. For good maesure, Tropical Monica and Paula are in late Scorpio close to the Sidereal S.Node and opposite Draco Pluto.

Here is the script, sex, power, stupidity, international politics, betrayal, downfall; the stars of the show are all on stage, on their marks; this episodic drama is going to run and run until director Pluto brings down the curtain on the very last act in 2003.

See what I mean?

Next question-where did free will go?

The only answer I have to that so far, with my circumscribed human understanding, is that maybe we have far less than we think, and it is in our attitude to what we meet in our lives that we are free to respond and to grow and clamber back to the divine.

Jesus said, "For offences must come but woe to those by whom the offences come!" (my italics.)

And we have all heard the one about "the sins of the fathers" being visited on all the subsequent generations. Maybe the "Fall" was humanity making mistakes that set off this ghastly, apparently unbreakable cycle of endless karmic debit and credit, out of which there are only narrow, bright, but easily missed exits? Feedback from you on this?

Let us join to hold President Bill Clinton, his family, and all involved in this turmoil in the light of our love and our prayers.


God bless and help us all!
