The Full Moon of October 26, 2007 in Political Astrology
October 8th, 2007 at 1:53 pm (Current Events)
Astrologically speaking, the Full Moon at 2° Taurus/2° Scorpio this month is very significant for the United States, and not for the better. This full Moon promises protracted violence, strife, and financial insolvency for the nation. The horoscope for the Full Moon, set for Washington, D.C., is below:
The stationary Mars in Cancer (in the sign of its fall, so quite malefic) is conjunct the Midheaven of the preceding solar eclipse of September 11, 2007, and opposite the Moon in Capricorn in the Grand Conjunction chart of 1762. Finally, this full Moon is exactly on the cusp of the crucial 10th house of the King, when set for Washington, D.C.. This establishes the importance of this particular full Moon, which we can expect to trigger some fairly disturbing events. Note that this malefic Mars is aspecting Saturn on the malefic South node, which is conjunct the second house of money.
To round out this parade of horribles, William Ramesey (citing the Arab astrologers) writes that Mars in the 12th house means “the people shall be much terrified and troubled by their enemies, from whence shall proceed slaughter and effusion of blood.” While I believe we should hope for the best, this is not an auspicious chart, connecting slaughter and financial insolvency. It is not a far leap to make the connection between these testimonies, the Iraq war, and the current financial troubles of the United States. The dollar may well plumb new depths.
As lunation charts also have everything to do with the weather, with the Full Moon so prominent in the sky, the week starting on October 26th may be a somewhat wet/cloudy week for the nation’s capital.

well I’m in shock. I did not see this chart setting up. I am very close to someone with a taur sun / scorp moon at these degrees… with mars in cancer.

The weather in DC for the week starting October 26th may be more fair and warmer than average with a mix of, as you say ,some wet/cloudy conditions. Leo rising is hot and with the ruler conjunct the 4th cusp, a dominant weather house, insures heat. The Moon, strong in Taurus applies to the hot Mars. a calming Moon ruled by Venus vs. the malefic and aggressive Mars. Who will win out? Carolyn

Hi Elsa,
Thanks for visiting! (getting the smelling salts) It’s pretty rare that full moons affect our individual charts, so I wouldn’t panic just yet. Still, interesting how it matches your natal. How did your solar return look for the year?

I’m so glad you’ve dropped by; hopefully someone from DC will let us know how it all turned out.

Nina, the full Moon chart information you have posted was being discussed on the Political Astrology list. Your website addy was in the post so I thought I would stop by and offer my two cents. Thank for the compliment, but I wanted to let you know also that I’ve seen your name in other places and I think that is a wonderful idea. You have a beautiful website. It’s good to let others know that astrometeorology works time and time again. Carolyn

Again, you are uncanny and your comments regarding financial insolvency dovetails nicely with my projection of the dollars continued erosion of value.
hedgefunds are imploding almost on a daily basis and people cannot get redemption. The only true currency that has stood the test of time is precious metals.

Hi Bob,
Thanks for visiting. Well, we’ll see how that Full Moon turns out. I recently read that the value of the dollar and the price of crude are inversely related. Note, by the way, that the Moon, which rules all liquids, rules oil. The afflicted Moon in the Grand Conjunction chart speaks to oil as the Achilles heel of the U.S. economy.

Nina, it’s not my natal… someone close to me. He is really getting ground at the moment. There is a great fear he will lose his niece who is very ill. She is named after him and just 11 years old.
There is great foreboding and also a sense in inevitability.

Hi Elsa,
I saw that after I replied to you. That is really tough; and I’m sorry to hear about his trouble. Still, unless there is some kind of loss shown in his progressed chart and return chart, the full Moon chart by itself won’t do anything.
Best wishes to your friend,
Nina
