My readers want to know about the election. I'm a 9th house person with a historical perspective and something doesn't get on my radar screen if it's less than 50-100 years in the past. I'm interested in the very broadest perspective possible, including "world" events, anthropology and evolution as well as history. It is not possible to have a good perspective on an event until some time has passed. That's my orientation and so I don't do American politics.
Terry Lamb has an excellent discussion that begins this way ...
"What does an eclipse mean? Conventional astrological wisdom states that an eclipse, any eclipse whether lunar or solar, highlights and expands the effect of a planet it touches.
"If this is true, then Bush should be a shoo-in: His Jupiter, the "great benefic", is exactly contacted by the solar eclipse on October 13. In addition, he is about to go through a Jupiter return, which usually confers honors and successes. This is nearly simultaneous to his Saturn return, which puts a focus on his ability to take responsibility. The Moon, representing the public, will be in his sun sign of Cancer on election day.
"But what is the flip side of this? My studies of eclipses have told me that the manifest events that we associate with eclipses occur on the lunar eclipses. Every eclipse event that I examined occurred on the lunar rather than the solar eclipse. The solar eclipses in contrast were associated with the nadir or dark point of a situation. This perspective on eclipses -- the darkening aspect -- has been noted by both the Babylonians and the Chinese. In the Chinese I Ching, there is a hexagram that is specifically about an eclipse, referring to its darkening and suppressing influence.
[Nancy's note: The I Ching hexagram she's referring to is #36 Darkening of the Light
Although Lamb doesn't mention this or perhaps doesn't know this, in ancient times, a solar eclipse specifically portended the downfall of someone great, such as a king.]
"If Bush wins, it will indicate to me that solar eclipses serve to brighten rather than darken the points they contact. The solar eclipse supports Kerry's chart, with the eclipse-chart stellium (planetary grouping) in Libra trining Kerry's Gemini stellium. Since the eclipse-point trine happens across the heavens from the natal stellium, they are allowed to shine more brightly, just as stars shine more brightly in a sky that is darkened by an eclipse. So Kerry's measured and intelligent approach (Gemini) were allowed to shine through at the last debate. ..."
