DATA: August 13, 2011 @ 2:59 P.M. - Washington, D.C.

Sagittarius Rises...chart ruler Jupiter is posited in the stock market 5th house inconjunct Saturn.  Jupiter and Saturn are the business  planets, the aspect suggesting a contradiction between expansion and contraction, being heavily influenced by the legislative branches, who as we have recently witnessed are brainless in the area of finances...perhaps except for their own personal millions/billions.  Clearly the inconjunct aspect of Jupiter and Saturn reveals a congress and senate that avoids duty whenever possible.  As it is an applying aspect (not yet exact) the meaning is that the legislative branch will continue to avoid doing their duty.  Enter the smoke-screen: Super Congress.  So why isn't the public demanding a recall of these parasites?  The country needs statesmen and women, not these self-serving monstrosities!

The Sun in a mundane chart symbolizes the country's leader (although the USA is bereft of leadership we nevertheless read the chart as if we did enjoy that blessing).  In this Full Moon chart transiting Sun in the 9th house is opposed by retrograde Neptune in the 3rd house...what we have is a president who is slip-sliding on shifting sand whenever he opens his mouth, who is obviously unclear as to his direction and who prefers to escape rather than apply himself to get the job done.  Thus, he finds himself in embarrassing situations...and further embarrasses the country.

The Full Moon falls across the 3rd/9th house axis, bringing to our attention transportation, communication, education and propaganda...with the Neptune influence, expect the media to present stories (fairy tales) in an attempt to maintain rose-colored glasses for the public's consumption.

We are oft to blame in this, --

'Tis too much prov'd, -- that with devotion's visage,

And pious action, we do sugar o'er

The devil himself.
