Since joining Gaia Community in February 2007, and writing hundreds of blogs, while learning much about myself, I've frightened away my readers. Am I an ogre, a fairy tale monster? If you read my profile, you find that I came to this life a messenger. I envision the future as being beyond present day imagination. Everything known is going to be trashed. For Gaia Community, the idea must be like jumping into a black hole.

I have come to believe in astrology. There are too many coincidences in the events of my life and my characteristics to think anything else. In Linda Brady's message, Discovering Your Soul Mission, we find that Barrack Obama and I share Aquarius in our soul patterns. When you think about that, it's unbelievable, isn't it? The soul pattern is one's greater calling in life. It is very interesting that Obama's mentor is Abraham Lincoln. Lincoln's sun sign is Aquarius. His rising sign is Aquarius. America was born under the sign of Aquarius. We're entering the Age of Aquarius. My rising sign is Aquarius. Both Obama and I have Aquarian soul patterns. The most outstanding characteristic of Aquarius is independence. Obama and Gaia Community are swimming against the current of change. I would like all of you Gaia astrologers to point out to me where I've gone wrong, and also where Obama is going wrong.

Obama's Mercury in Cancer matches "liberal." Obama sees the world through the eyes of an emotionally sensitive cosmic nurturer and mother, wrote Brady. It's a match with Gaia. Brady wrote that Obama would be a sensitive listener. This is a match with Gaia. But Gaia can lose her identity, as can Obama, in his empathy to others, Brady wrote. Because of this sensitivity, Gaia and Obama are lacking in objectivity, says Brady.

Obama's Mercury in Cancer, along with Gaia's orientation, is very interesting when you compare this Aquarian soul with that Aquarian soul. Matching "conservative," my Mercury is in Virgo. I perceive the world through the eyes of an organizer, wrote Brady. I seek to maintain high standards. I'm exacting. I seek to bring coherence to life. You bet! I can be judgmental. A true liberal is never judgmental. I further agree with Brady in that I can be obsessed by details. There is a difference in being obsessed by details and obsessed by trivia. I'm into quantum mechanics and the discovery of how it all comes together-through the study of the smallest of excitations. My question: Which is more important, knowing how to screw taxpayers, or knowing the why of it all?

Would you believe that both Obama and I share Mars in Virgo? Mars in Virgo, according to Brady, "manifests itself in your need to create order and high standards, in your ability to analyze and discern. Your positive characteristics include being scientific, discriminating, industrious, dependable and conscientious. Your challenging characteristics include being too obsessive, too result-oriented, nervous, hypochondriacal, perfectionistic, judgmental, and critical."

Judging myself, I'd say I'm obsessive, results-oriented, judgmental, and critical. I don't see any of these negative characteristics in Obama. Neither do I see any of the positive characteristics. He has set his course for La La Land.

Brady says, "You project the impossibly high standards you have for yourself onto others. But you are also methodical, practical, organized, and thorough. You seek a perfect blend of mind and body, and you support that pursuit by being studious and exacting in your search for information."

With this astrological information in mind, we see that Obama's spending plans aim for dependence in big government. His spending plans hogtie generations with tax to pay for having a government that is emotionally sensitive to the "needs" of the individual, as is Gaia Community. Obama says he is about remaking America.  I hope he fails. It isn't the image I've known America to be.
Obama, we find in his chart, excels in sensitivity and empathy. He is the Gaia hero of the day. He's one of the greatest charmers who ever sought to become president of the United States. It appears to this Aquarian that Obama is merely a figurehead; that he does not control anyone, including himself.  It's payback time now. Those of the liberal persuasion scream: give him a chance! No way!

The millions spent to get Obama elected are due to become trillions paid back to the special interests who paid for his election. And don't forget that of those 9,000 "earmarks" 40 percent are Republican earmarks. All members of Congress agree that in order to remain in office one has to pass out pork to his constituency. This is understood when one decides to run for public office. It's "bipartisan."

So here we are, my Gaia astrologer friends, moving from the Age of Pisces, an age of authoritarian control, into the Age of Aquarius, an age of individual independence. Before Obama ran for President of the United States, it was tacitly agreed that he would not break ranks. Obama's duty is to keep America under the control of Washington's liberal control freaks for generations to come. Has Obama not sold his Aquarian soul to the devil? I'm with Rush. I hope Obama fails. To liberals, it means that I hope America fails. Liberals don't have the foggiest notion of what America stands for-nor what their lives stand for. Time will tell who is right and who is wrong.

On my post "No Way is Obama's Plan the Right Answer," this comment, on February 26th:

just love the Republican way of thinking,.. the past 8 years they implemented more Tax and spend complete with PORK than the last 3 Democratic presidents combined! and NOW they put full blame on people that acquired loans that they thought they could pay back but find they now can not, oh sure they mention the bankers that made the loans but the part of the blame directly on the republicans that no one will admit is this: I retired after 25 years working for a municipality and was a teamster and a IBEW member. Under the Republicans and their anti union ways we have seen the lowest raises in over 12 years! while the cost of living shot up over 30 percent we barely received (IN 12 years) 13.5 percent in raises. Why is that important? Well factor the Bush anti union choke hold and if we had gotten fair wage increases(Just to match inflation) those very same people now in trouble would of had the money to stay afloat and pay the additional 6 percent they now need to not fall behind. and all the while corporate big wigs got FAT bonuses for finding ways to screw the working class stiff...In the republican way.... Gee what happened to Haliburton? OH thats not important you say?,..BS...What are we going to do about Cheney?. Let us all look into the friends and follow the money trail and see who is telling the truth,all the whiney FOX 5 reporters are still blasting Obama and it has only been 1 month...Now nuts Like Bill Oriley are attempting to tone down one of the most desgracefull cartoons in NY post history...I dont get it! Well thats all I have to say..They want to help..get on board. we did not allow Madoff and the several copycat Ponzi boys to pull of the biggest ripoff in history, The republicans and power house special interests did... PS Bill Clinton had the Federal deficit under controll, Bush (It is alleged) created the crisis by ignoring a premptive strike on Twin towers and allowed it to happen. Pay back for Daddy? I dont know...But one thing that was proven is NO WEAPONS OF MASS DISTRUCTION FOUND> and all he had to say was " OOps My Bad!" Sorry,...That OOPs cost the USA everythin!..Money,Lives and the respect of the world stage. and triggered the losses to the working man in so many ways that all had a direct impact on the current economic crisis. Now It took a comedian to give us a real stimulous package that would of worked, (Trikle up economics) instead banks,and loan institutions and auto manufacurers all bailed out but the drive train (The working man) is again left out, If the money went to individules and they aquired loans for autos from banks, or to refinance a home then those auto dealers and banks would have to compete for the business of the dealer or bank? every one comes up a winner....Yet instead, Banks that took bail out funds held and are still holding the (Your Money) bail out funds and will not make loans. We are all screwed! unless someone makes direct funds to small business and gets people back to work.

My questions: Do two wrongs make a right? Are we like spineless jellyfish floating on the tides? What is it that makes us human? This isn't my America. I grew up in a totally different America. My message: You better believe this America is not long for this world. America's liberals are going to be left in a cloud of dust.

We've left the Age of Pisces, whose sign is two fish swimming in opposite directions, symbolizing the plight of today's America. We've entered the Age of Aquarius, whose sign is the water-bearer to humanity.

Having referenced the above signs of the times, this water-bearer says if you think you need big government, your wish has come true with the election of Barrack Obama. The national debt he plans to heap on taxpayers is beyond comprehension, but never fear, Obama has a plan for you. He has a magic printing press that prints money. He plans to print money and hand it out to the voting constituencies who think they need big government.

This printing press money simply says the bearer promises to pay all debts public and private. Have you ever thought about that? As Obama hands out his Monopoly money-nothing to back it, we've an astronomical debt---the money in circulation will be watered down. At first, the phony money will stimulate economic growth. But then workers will see their pay checks not buying as much. They will cut back on their purchases. Those who owe a lot of money will be paying off their debts with cheaper dollars. That's good, but think again. That also applies to government, the redistribution agent. It's the same as tax. Obama plans to cut the deficit in half by making the dollar worth half as much-in two years. What if the worker owing a lot needs all of his watered down money to buy essentials; he has none left over to pay his debts? Not to worry. The government will print enough money to help its friends. Indeed, you can bet that Obama is going to have a lot more friends than he now has. America's producers, if they are not already, will be begging for help. We know that Obama is not going to allow industry to shut down. He is going to continue bailing out industry. The money he gives industry will have strings attached. Hitler had what he called National Socialism. Stalin called it Communism. But not to worry. In America, we've got democracy.  It is not socialism. It's compassionate liberals helping out  those in need (in George W. Bush's case, compassionate conservatives helping out those in need).

Back in the 1960s, I lived in Dallas, Texas. Dallas' fat cats, the one's who controlled local government, got the bright idea of making the Trinity River a canal that would allow Dallas to be a seaport. It would be great for Dallas' economy. Said fat cats went to Washington for the money. It would be great for the politicians in Washington to help out Dallas. Everything was looking good. Said fat cats bought up all the land in Dallas bordering the Trinity River real cheap. It was a flood plain. Every spring the Trinity River covered the land.

Alas, a kill-joy in Dallas exposed the fat cat plan to make millions on the flood plain when it became a sea port. Making the Trinity River a canal was not economically sound. Said kill-joy was elected Dallas' congressman. He killed the "earmark" for the canal. He also killed the "earmark" for an unneeded Federal center in Dallas. You can imagine the anger he generated in Dallas' fat cats. They financed Dallas' mayor to run against this kill-joy congressman. He served only one term. But the "cat" was out of the bag. Neither the canal nor the Federal center materialized.  That was then and now is now. The situation reminds me of a giant rocket, after launching, zooming out of control.

"The self-fulfilling prophecy is, in the beginning, a false definition of the situation evoking a new behaviour which makes the original false conception come 'true'. This specious validity of the self-fulfilling prophecy perpetuates a reign of error. For the prophet will cite the actual course of events as proof that he was right from the very beginning." Robert K. Merton

Money goes where money flows. There is a correlation in Obama's election and big money. He raised, by far, more campaign money than anyone else. That money did not all come from the meek and the poor wanting a cut of the pie. Now it's payback time. There are over 9,000 earmarks in Obama's economic stimulus package, 40 percent of them Republican. Guess who is going to wind up in total control your life? They say the root of all evil is money.

I awakened this morning with the realization that I'm on the bridge to nowhere. The bridge to somewhere is globalization and socialism. In early 1975, I determined that the bridge to somewhere was not where I wanted to go. It has been an interesting journey.

It started with a repeating dream. I dreamed that I was on the back of a giant bird flying through a narrow, winding canyon, terrified. I was unable to see what was around the bends. Not long after those repeating dreams, I departed my old life. I went to sea for two years, went where the wind took me on a 37 foot sloop I named Bold Venture. There was nothing but water, the heavens above, and me. Inexplicable events occurred while I was at sea, which left me with the feeling that a force in me existed I'd not known. Miraculously, while I was at sea, I saved seven lives from a watery grave, including my own. I left the sea with the feeling that I had a greater purpose in life than me.

By chance, I met Karen in Portland, Oregon. She is my fourth wife; that is, my soul mate. It was like meeting someone I'd not seen for a long time, perhaps someone from a past life. On our first date, May 18, 1980, on a hike to Multnomah Falls, not 50 miles to our northwest Mt. St. Helens erupted. So many inexplicable events had occurred in my life since I departed and went to sea that I took this event as synchronistic correspondence with the Higher Law, a symbol of calamity, hope, and renewal, and the same for the September 11, 2001 event, when Islamic extremists took down the World Trade Center in New York City.

My birth on September 17, 1925 was a symbol of things to come. In September 1925, physicist Werner Heisenberg, Hitler's atom bomb builder, published a scientific paper on the uncertainty principle, the forerunner of quantum mechanics. Heisenberg's heavy water plant was bombed. It gave the United States the chance it needed to beat Hitler to the building of the atom bomb. I was on the high seas heading for the invasion of Japan when the United States dropped the atom bomb on Japan, ending World War II. I came home to the bridge to nowhere.

In 1925, in the year I was born, the United States made it law that the IRS could examine personal income records. Never before had the United States been allowed to do such a thing. In the chaos theory, a meteorologist determined that the flapping of a butterfly's wings can cause a hurricane. As the consequence of the authority to examine personal income records-the flapping of butterfly wings-in 1973, I wrote a letter to U.S. Attorney General William Saxbe informing him that the Internal Revenue Code was unconstitutional. He forwarded my letter to the IRS. The IRS sent an auditor to examine my personal income records. It led to an eleven year legal battle between me and the IRS, which went to the U.S. Supreme Court. My case was never heard. I went to the press with the court record. An investigation found that the IRS had "mistakenly" confiscated my property for eleven years. I remained on the bridge to nowhere. Not a peep from anyone.

At the moment of my birth, the sun rose on the sign of Aquarius, the water-bearer to humanity. The United States was born under the sign of Aquarius. We are moving into the Age of Aquarius, an age when mankind will be more spiritual, more independent, more altruistic. President Obama has the soul pattern of Aquarius. He is a socialist, someone out to control us, someone to tie us to the past for generations, an enemy of the new age. He is anything but an agent of change. He has betrayed his sacred soul.

In keeping with this new age, quantum physics is about to learn, not only how it all comes together, but why it all comes together. The movements of the heavens long ago told star gazers that the end of the world comes in 2012. Concerning the bridge to somewhere, Saturn and Pluto went into unfavorable alignment and we experienced the September 11, 2001 event. The same unfavorable alignment occurred in November 2008, in the month and year Obama was elected president, and will remain causing "a widespread sense of epochal closure: ‘the end of an era,' ‘the end of innocence,' the destruction of an earlier mode of life that in retrospect may seem to have been marked by widespread indulgence, decadence, naivete, denial, and inflation. Profound transformation was a dominant theme, as with the Uranus-Pluto cycle, but here the transformation was through contraction, conservative reaction, crisis and termination," wrote cultural historian Richard Tarnas in Cosmos and Psyche: Intimations of a New World View. The book was published in May 2007. It's a prophecy of exactly what is now taking place.

An astrologer told me my astrological chart has the configuration of the most notable psychics in the world. I've been asking myself if I'm not on the bridge to nowhere. I dreamed, this morning, March 4, 2009, that I'd had my old car overhauled and was out for a test drive on a road I knew to be twisting with steep climbs. I came to a steep climb. The pavement had been removed. Road construction was in progress. As I proceeded, the climb became much steeper. It was obvious that I'd taken a road to nowhere. I awakened and realized that I'd had many similar dreams. It was a message. My spiritual guides were telling me my mission, the messenger, is complete. I'm on the bridge to nowhere. Blessings to all of you. The future is anything you want it to be.

P.S.  Mars in Aquarius gives us the desire for independence. Now revving up, there will be a trend in unusual and unorthodox courses of action to achieve universal truth stemming from those of you born in the year 1971. Mars was in the sign Aquarius beginning on May 4 and lasting until November 6 due to the fact that the motion was retrograde and therefore stationary during this extended period. This group of souls, with the special abilities of Mars in Aquarius, and trine to Uranus in Libra, will spearhead a new way of life today's world cannot imagine.

From Linda Brady's Discovering Your Soul: How to Use Karmic Astrology to Create the Life You Want, I made a mistake on Barrack Obama's soul pattern. It is Aquarius, the same as mine. One's soul pattern is from a former life. I was wrong to say Obama betrayed his soul pattern.

Barrack Obama was born in a generation whose soul pattern was under the sign of Aquarius. His soul potential was Leo. Those born in my generation, the same as Obama, had the soul pattern of Aquarius when born. The same as Obama's generation, the soul potential in my generation was Leo. The soul pattern in the sign of Aquarius has the following energies: overly logical, too detached, too detracted, oblivious, intolerant, meddlesome, remote, repressed, impersonal, radical. The karmic mission is to overcome these energies. In one's soul potential, the energies for Leo are as follows: whimsical, self-confident, leader, dramatic, generous, fun-loving, courageous, commanding, exuberant, inspiring, dignified, influential, willing to act. Obviously, Obama has lived up to his soul potential far better than have I.

Obama's Mercury is in Cancer. He sees the world through the eyes of an emotionally sensitive cosmic nurturer and mother. Obama is a sensitive listener, always paying close attention to his emotional environment. If what he hears doesn't match with his emotions, he often ignores. There are moments when Obama can lose his emotional identity because of his highly developed empathy to others, leaving him contradictory.

Obama comes from a generation in which Pluto was in Virgo. Brady says Obama was a God-like healer, well ordered and structured. Everyone needed Obama. He could do no wrong. Obama's mission was to be a perfect healer, but one day he did something imperfect. He made a mistake that cost someone his life, someone who had placed his trust in Obama. Terror in making a mistake, no matter how small, keeps Obama overly cautious. Guilt also creates a strong need to do service, but he does not derive any satisfaction from it unless he performs flawlessly. Poor Obama! His Mercury is in Cancer.

My Mercury is in Virgo. I perceive the world through the eyes of an organizer. I consider myself the right person to create a systematic environment. I want to maintain high standards through reason, logic, and methodical analysis. I'm exacting and seek to bring coherence to the world. Although my soul potential is Leo, I'm not trying to grab center stage. That's the way it is. Each of us have our strengths and weaknesses.

My Mars is in Virgo. This means I need to establish order and high standards. I would be efficient in logic, with the ability to analyze.

Mars in Aquarius gives us the desire for independence. There will be a trend in unusual and unorthodox courses of action to achieve universal truths. Those born on May 4 and lasting until November 6 in the year 1971, an extended period of time due to the retrograde motion of Mars leaves a number of people born during the period. This group of souls, with the special abilities of Mars in Aquarius, and trine to Uranus in Libra, will spearhead a new way of life.

During the above mentioned period, my transiting Uranus, my ruling planet, had moved into a position opposed to its position at the time of my birth. This would come as a strong need to change my life. In 1975, I departed my old life, seeking a new, more fulfilling life. When I went on my own, I mentally joined the special group inspired to produce a balance of social concepts and the action necessary to implement them. Many others are joining this group of world-changers. In our future, it will not be the Leo influence that directs our lives. Coercive government will be replaced by perfunctory government. Cooperative associations through a network economy will be the principle way a worldwide society of advanced beings will at last bring the world to its intended course.

According to Linda Brady's Discovering Your Soul Mission, this generation's soul pattern is Aquarius; that is, the thing we are here to overcome: too detached and detracted, too oblivious, too intolerant, too repressed and impersonal, too irrational to move ahead. Brady gives this generation's soul potential Leo. Leo is the most dominant, an extravert with a grand manner. Leo is the monarch, the king of the beasts, the lion. America struts its stuff around the world, heading us to the Battle of Armageddon.

The ancient Mayans were astronomers. They knew the sun was at the center of our solar system hundreds of years before Galileo proved it with his telescope. The ancient Greeks knew Earth was a sphere. They knew Earth circled the sun and the reason for climate changes. They knew the smallest building block of the universe was the atom. The ancient sages of India reasoned so is the microcosm, so is the macrocosm. For thousands of years man has known that the cosmos tells us about our human characteristics.

There is much evidence that extraterrestrials have been either visiting planet Earth for thousands of years, or perhaps here long before we were here. We could have been genetically engineered.

It is estimated that there have been two million alien abductions. It is inexplicable that we are the only life form on the planet with the capability of knowing far more than other life forms about how it all comes together. Interestingly, the ape is the only animal that can look in a mirror and know it is looking at itself. I would think that in order to be aware of very much, it would be pretty important to be aware of self. Self-awareness is the basis of being human, and it is not limited.

The Mayan calendar is like the odometer on your car. When all the numbers are at the number nine, the odometer goes back to all zeros. As we move forward, the process begins again, and unlike anything you've ever known before. The cutting edge of science, from its study of the smallest excitations, has found that there are many dimensions that go to make the universe. There is a dimension of infinite possibility. That which we observe becomes our reality. Our reality is limited to how much we observe (and how fearful we are of change).

All things considered, the American people are here to overcome being too detached and detracted, too oblivious, too intolerant, too repressed and impersonal, too irrational to move ahead. The American people now have a government, for one thing, keeping secret, as much as possible, the undeniable fact that U.F.O.s are real. For another thing, in this transient period, the unwillingness of government to give up control-the Picean influence-there is an urgent drive, through redistribution of America's wealth (to help the needy)-to keep the American people as dependent as possible on government-and for as long as possible-with excessive indebtedness.

Too bad, so sad. At the end of 2012, we all begin again-the same as before, all with an equal opportunity, but not with equal results. The odometer goes to all zeros in 2012, coincidentally, at the end of Barrack Obama's term of office. People say, "give Obama a chance." All things considered, not only am I on the bridge to nowhere with my arguments, America is on the bridge to nowhere.

P.S. Having said this, on a more pleasant note, now I'm going to practice my music. After the calamity my life had become, I found hope and renewal. At this late date, I've found my bliss in the tall timber 30 miles east of Mt. Hood. According to my stars, I'm where I'm supposed to spend the rest of my days.

My daughter gave me a guitar. I've learned to play it and sing to a background of my keyboard songs I've recorded. I'd like to share some of my music I've posted on isound.com., and especially for you, Whispering Hope.

Circumstances made America's Founding Fathers closer to Nature's God than today's American. "To assume among the Powers of Earth," published in Congress in a declaration on July 4, 1776, "the separate and equal Station to which the Laws of Nature and of Nature's God entitle them"-the American people, rather than government entitled, were entitled, in the beginning, according to the Founding Fathers, to the Laws of Nature and Nature's God. Today it is man's law, the same as has been throughout recorded history. It has always, in the final analysis, gotten back to that.

We are now leaving the Age of Pisces, the symbol of which is two fish swimming in opposite directions (not unlike the present plight of the American people). We are entering the Age of Aquarius. By the way, on July 4, 1776, the birth of America was under the sign of Aquarius, the symbol of which is the water-bearer to humanity, a far cry of where we are at this point in America's history. Hardly the water-bearers of the world, we've lost sight of America's values and principles.

Putting it all together, material abundance has diverted the American people's, and their representatives, attention from the principles held by America's Founding Fathers. Indeed, it is now held by the U.S. Supreme Court that the people's Constitution should be interpreted "in light of today's needs," according to our judges, in spite of the fact that those principles held by the Founding Fathers predated history.

Where has our judges' interpretation of the people's Constitution gotten us? There is no hope left for the individual under the present authority. We're on the bridge to nowhere. Material abundance has diverted attention away from symbols the world's greatest prophets have employed to predict the future. The September 11, 2001 destruction of the World Trade Center and the loss of thousands of lives should stand as a meaningful symbol of what is to come, the battle to end all battles, the Battle of Armageddon. Instead, the event has been twisted and distorted so it has no meaning. America, as we knew her, is a sinking ship. Who knows where the fickle finger of fate will point next. I'm guessing China. At the present rate, America will be a slave state, her people under the control of a ruthless dictatorship.

In Cosmos and Psyche, authored by Richard Tarnas, distinguished philosopher and cultural historian, we read that when Pluto and Saturn are in unfavorable alignment, "an atmosphere of gravity and tension tended to accompany these three-to-four-year periods as did a widespread sense of epochal closure: ‘the end of an era,' ‘the end of innocense,' the destruction of an earlier mode of life that in retrospect may seem to have been marked by widespread indulgence, decadence, naivete, denial, and inflation." Pluto and Saturn went into unfavorable alignment in November 2008, the month Barrack Obama was elected President of the United States.

Going back to Nature's God, in that we are created with intelligence and love I can tell you there is no reward in life as great as loving and being loved. God so loved us that he gave his only son. The cross is a symbol the dogmas and doctrines of the church have corrupted. In John 1:5-8, Jesus said, "I am the vine, ye are the branches: He that abideth in me, and I in him, the same bringeth forth much fruit: for without me you can do nothing. If a man abideth not in me , he is cast forth as a branch, and is withered; and men gather them into the fire, and they are burned. If ye abide in me, and my words abide in you, ye shall ask what ye will, and it will be done unto you."

I'm a believer in Jesus, not the church. The church is bricks, mortar, and power seekers who want us to feel guilty if we don't do religion's bidding. That's the meaning of the September 11^th event. That's the meaning of war. Wars are fought to gain power over the individual. Speaking symbolically, to cast out Jesus makes you a branch that withers and men burn. The symbol Jesus left the world remains alive. In my life, everything is in divine order. Jesus is the symbol of peace and good will.

In Evan Harris Walker's The Physics of Consciousness, under "A God for Tomorrow," we read, "Mankind has traveled a long way in the search to understand reality. We have looked deeply at ourselves, and our religions, and at our science. We have looked at what we are made of and looked at our origins. Beginning with the myths and superstitions of antiquity, we have followed a path of discovery into the modern age of scientific understanding, and we have helped to open the door to new realms of science."

"We still hunger to find some god that we can know. . . Is God a personal god? Was there a resurrection of Christ? And where is the soul? " I know I've been reborn the person I was meant to be. America is on a bridge to nowhere because America is in denial.

Says Walker: "We find that what we had thought was an independent and objective physical world is in fact contingent on the observer, on our combined consciousness, in a most basic way. And it follows that the God we find must be a personal God."

"But it has only been with the advent of quantum theory that we have discovered proof that we exist as something more than pieces of matter. In the development of quantum theory, the observer emerges as a co-equal in the foundry of creation. . . The tests of Bell's theorem have shown us that objective reality as it has been conceived is not the true fabric of reality. The observer interacts with matter. Consciousness, the substance of this new-found reality that defines the observer, has fundamental existence. It is the quantum mind that is the basic reality."

An amazing thing in my life. I was led to my soul mate. It was like meeting an old friend I'd not seen for a long time. On our first date, a hike in the mountains near Mt. St. Helens, on May 18, 1980, Mt. St. Helens erupted, the symbol of which is after the calamity, hope and renewal, the same for the September 11^th event, the same for the crucifixion of Christ, and the same in my own life.

We were sitting on a log chatting. Karen said a strange thing. "I want our's to be a platonic relationship." Karen doesn't know why she said that. Fifteen years later, a friend gave Karen an astrological compatibility printout he made from a program in his computer. In it I read, "The platonic thing was there from the start, and there is a sense of the brotherly and sisterly between you. Even if lovers, you will always be first and foremost, good friends." How could that be? Karen and I are spiritually united, connected with the superconsciousness of the universe. .

In Jeanne Avery's, The Rising Sign, under "Aquarius Rising," "he may be the person to bring back information that has been lost to civilization for centuries. The person with Aquarius on the rise can be very avant-garde. He is a forerunner in setting style, discovering new methods, and showing the rest of humanity the way. He may be especially enlightened, metaphysical, scientific, and inventive. He can be like the rolling stone, gathering no moss. He is a chance-taker. He is willing to let go of the trunk of the tree to walk out on the edge of a limb. He knows where the fruit grows and where the spotlight can hit. He is not one to hide his light under a bushel."

While we find Saturn now in unfavorable alignment with Pluto, we find in Astrologer's Handbook, authored by Francis Sakioan and Louis S. Acker, that with my Saturn trine Pluto when I was born, "This trine gives the natives the ability to understand the laws by which subtle forces are organized, enabling them to see these laws consciously or unconsciously. They are able to work slowly and make fundamental and irrevocable changes in their own and others' lives. Often there is a sense of destiny or a peculiar karmic mission which they must fulfill. This is one of the most profound of aspects."

Astrologer James Redfield, author of The Celestine Prophecy, for $25, sent me an informational audio tape on my astrology, as follows:

"We are going to take a look at two key aspects of your astrological data, your Sun sign and your Moon sign. "We are going to talk about them archetypically. The emotional issue is pointed out by your Moon sign-how this feels as you go through life-talk about your Sun sign-again archetypically-how you naturally uplift people, to give you some good information as you try to find out what your spiritual mission is."

Speaking archetypically, "As you get in touch with your inner energy and start to get in touch with your higher self, you will be guided into how to find that true work expression. It will be shown to you intuitively. This becomes the way you uplift everyone who comes into your life. When you evolve into your higher self you energize those who cross your path. This becomes your greatest talent."

Speaking archetypically, my Mercury is in Virgo. In Astrologer's Handbook, we read, "Mercury in Virgo is the sign of its rulership, a position indicating an analytical mind and great practical reasoning ability."

Speaking archetypically, when Uranus, my ruling planet, had transited from my birth to a position opposing itself, this indicated a change in my life. In March, 1975, I departed from my old life. I went to sea on a 37 foot sloop I named Bold Venture. When it was only me, the sea, and the heavens, I found my path of destiny.

In Numerology and The Divine Triangle, by Faith Javane and Dusty Bunker, for my "life lesson number," I'm given the number 7. "You are here to use and to develop your mind. . . You should learn to spend time by yourself, in the woods or by the seashore, where you can get in touch with your inner self and your deepest thoughts because your destiny is to use your mind." I've been the "rolling stone that gathers no moss," but I've finally found the perfect home in the tall timber 30 miles east of Mt. Hood, Oregon.

For my "path of destiny," I've been given the number 7. "You psychically separate the true from the false and can discover and reveal some of the mysteries of life to a waiting world. You should become the thinker, the philosopher, the scientist, the mystic or the religious zealot whose destiny is the mind."

Archetypically, we exist in a state of awareness, and unlimited. In Genesis 1:26, 27, we read, "Let us make man in our image, after our likeness: and let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over the cattle, and over all the earth, and over every creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth. So God created man in his own image, in the image of God created he him; male and female created he them." In the introduction of the Scofield Reference Bible, we read that we are here with increasing purpose. Saint Augustine said: "Distinguish the ages, and the Scriptures harmonize."

Going from one point to another is both quantitative and qualitative. The Bridge to Nowhere is quantitative: external. Unfortunately, both quantitatively and qualitatively, the American people are getting nowhere. Biologist Julian Huxley, in his essay The Future of Man, tells us, "Man's exploration and control of external nature has outdone his exploration and control of his own nature."

Having learned life's lesson myself the hard way, looking at our future, I predict that the individual will emerge sooner or later Aquarian in nature: independent, altruistic, and spiritual.

I decided to discontinue writing blogs and spend my efforts on discussion groups. I posted the following thoughts on The Power of Light group.

"Helping others help themselves is the reason I'm a member of the Gaia Community. With this in mind, "Everything begins in the mind," you can't beat experience. I've been around 83 years. My education has been in the school of hard knocks. I've found my bliss. If life could be any better, I don't know how."

"Many of my Gaia friends call themselves progressives, the idea being that we've progressed since the founders of American principles wrote the Constitution."

"Indeed, we have progressed, in fact so much that we don't need authorities to direct our lives. The proof is there of how it all comes together. The idea behind the Constitution goes back to the Roman jurist Cicero."

"In his De Legibus, Cicero, identifying "right reason" with those qualities of human nature whereby "man is associated with the gods," he assigns the binding quality of civil law itself to its being in harmony with such universal attributes of human nature. Cicero asserts that "we are born for justice, and right is not the mere arbitrary construction of opinion, but an institution of nature. (This thought comes from The ‘Higher Law' Background of American Constitutional Law.)"

"There are some principles that don't change. It is fine to be progressive as along as you keep in mind that you can't change the laws of nature."

"Not many understand quantum physics. Quantum physics takes the universe apart and examines the pieces. We are forced to admit that in the mix you cannot leave out consciousness. Says quantum physicist, Evan Harris Walker, in The Physics of Consciousness, under "A God for Tomorrow," "We have discovered proof that we exist as something more than pieces of matter. In the development of quantum theory, the observer emerges as a co-equal in the foundry of creation."

"Therefore, if you say we've progressed beyond the principles written in the Constitution, you are really limiting yourself to the past authoritarian ages. I refer you to Genises 1:26: "And God said, Let us make man in our image." St. Augustine said: "Distinguish the ages, and the Scriptures harmonize." The progressive order of the universe, and how it deals with humanity, leaves us with increasing purpose which runs through and links together the ages, from the beginning of the life of man to the end in eternity. (This thought in the introduction of my Scofield Reference Bible.)"

"Existentialist Nietzsche wondered if God made a mistake in man or man made a mistake in God. If you think there is no god, you are denying that you exist in a state of limitless awareness. Reverend Scofield in the introduction to his Bible wrote: ‘The saying that anything may be proved by the Bible is both true and false-true if isolated passages are used; utterly false if the whole divine revelation is in view.'"

"If you look to the authorities for help, whether they be religious or secular, you are helping them, not yourself. When I was age 49, I decided to ignore the authorities and help myself. From that point on, when everything should have gone wrong, everything went right."

I've since not been able to post anything to The Power of Light group. My posts are not accepted. Could it be that someone doesn't like my thoughts?

My Comment on "The Age of Aquarius: Are You Ready"

"Would you like to hear my tale about when the moon is in the Seventh House? Interestingly, when I was born, Aquarius was on my Ascendant, the point at which the eastern horizon intersects the ecliptic. (In astrology, everything is Pythagorean geometrics.) Aquarius is in my First House, the "I AM THAT I AM" house, the God-self house, if you will. In this location, it is called my "rising sign," when the sun rose on my life on planet Earth. In that the sun travels across the surface of Earth at approximately 900 m.p.h., in order to know my rising sign, an astrologer must know where I was born and the exact time of my birth. I was born in Houston, Texas on September 17, 1925 at 4:51 P.M.C.S.T. No question about it. I'm Aquarius rising."

"Out of eleven signs, one for Fire, one for Air, I've five earth signs, meaning practicality, and four water signs, meaning psychic quality. I've two Cardinal Signs meaning realistic grasp of the situation. I've four Fixed Signs, meaning perseverance, and five Mutable Signs, meaning flexible. My Sun was in the sign of Virgo when I was born. My Sun, Mars, Moon and Mercury were in my Seventh House when I was born making me a double Virgo. Also, in that the Seventh House is the house of partners, partners would be most important in my life. Unfortunately, Neptune was on the cusp of my Seventh House. This would make for misunderstandings in partnerships. After three unsuccessful marriages, after I found my real self and my path of destiny, mysteriously, when the moon was in my Seventh House, my soul mate for life appeared. In the song, Aquarius,

"We note that peace will guide us, not the planets. Love will guide us, not the stars. What guides the stars? Love and peace are aspects of our human nature, the immaterial essence of our being, our animating principle or actuating cause of life: our souls."

"Given the way I view my world, it so happens that in the month and year of my birth, Werner Heisenberg published his uncertainty principle. Heisenberg was the father of quantum mechanics, and Hitler's atom bomb builder. I was born at the dawn of the atomic age."

"At the time of this writing, with Saturn in its worst aspect with Pluto, meaning "a widespread sense of epochal closure: ‘the end of an era,' ‘the end of innocence,' the destruction of an earlier mode of life that in retrospect may seem to have been marked by widespread indulgence, decadence, naivete, denial, and inflation." This says Richard Tarnas in Cosmos and Psyche.

"You can guess that I would hold it very important at this scary time to understand the real meaning of progressive, as distinguished from political progressive. "The Dispensations are distinguished, exhibiting the majestic, progressive order of the divine dealings of God with humanity, ‘the increasing purpose' which runs through and links together the ages, from the beginning of the life of man to the end in eternity. Augustine said: ‘Distinguish the ages, and the Scriptures harmonize." Rev. C.I. Scofield wrote this in the Introduction of The Scofield Reference Bible.

"Speaking to the political progressive, biologist Julian Huxley, in his essay, The Future of Man, explains our increasing purpose with ,"Man's exploration and control of external nature has outdone his exploration and control of his own nature." Look within for your answers. You can see from my chart that any notion that we are mechanical men, and that we can be taught to jump through authority's hoops, would set me off. Nero fiddles while Rome burns. For shame, America!"

"An examination of my astrological chart has amazed me. There are too many coincidences to be called coincidence. My examination further finds that I did not for the first 49 years of my life adhere to the positive aspects in my chart, by reason that my ruling planet, Uranus, was opposed to Mars when I was born. I was one of the victims of circumstances blaming my bad luck on other people. By the time I was in my 40s, Uranus had transited to a position opposite its position when I was born. I would be under pressure to change. And change I did. When I was 49, with my business career on the rocks and my second wife divorcing me, this God-self departed from my old life. I went to sea on a small boat. There was nothing but the sea, the heavens, and me. At the same time, a tiny speck, I was the only living entity in the scene. I learned the power that existed in me. The inexplicable occurred during my time at sea."

Henry Wadsworth Longfellow

"A couple of years before my departure, heading for my rebirth (I've now the soul of an Aquarian), I had a "bigger than life calling." I determined that federal income tax, as it was being implemented, was unconstitutional. My determination got me an IRS audit. Interestingly, in 1925, the year of my birth, the IRS was authorized to examine personal income records, a first step in making us all tax slaves. Now wouldn't you know that the IRS examination of my income records found that I was cheating? They took my bate, hook, line, and sinker. I was ready for the IRS. Their audit resulted in an 11 year legal battle. The U.S. income tax code is so ambiguous and deliberately corrupt that if the IRS chooses to it can find any taxpayer cheating. In the end, the IRS admitted on the front page of the Local Section of The Palm Beach Post that it had illegally (and unconstitutionally) robbed me of my property in the interest of the government's redistribution scheme; that is, a New Deal of cards off the bottom of the deck. I was kept out of sight out of mind while the IRS did its dirty work, while judges looked the other way. So much for transparent government."

"The United States admitted to the world that it deliberately and unconstitutionally robbed me of my property for 11 years. (They called it a "mistake.") And there was not a peep from anyone. Why? Because taxpayers know very well that the courts look the other way when government abuses the taxpayer. You people of color can tell us that we cannot expect to be free when we don't demand our rights."

"We should all know that government is not our keeper; it's our taskmaster. Once the horse is out of the gate, as history records, out of expedience, there is no telling what government will do. We are now witness to the United States placing an astronomical burden of debt on generations of future taxpayers. Next, out of expedience, it will be concentration camps. As history records, government will not give up control until forced to."

"Interestingly, on July 4, 1776, the day the representatives of the American people signed the Declaration of Independence, thereby signing their death warrants if England's King George ever got his hands on them, the United States was born under the sign of Aquarius. The sign of Aquarius says, ‘Don't fence me in.'"

"In view of the direction the United States is steering the ship of state, it is interesting to note that we are now moving from the Age of Pisces into the Age of Aquarius. The symbol for Pisces is two fish swimming in opposite directions. The symbol for Aquarius is the water-bearer of humanity. As previously mentioned, at this particular time, starting in the month and year that Barrack Obama was elected president of the United States, November 2008, Saturn went into its most unfavorable alignment with Pluto, and at a time when the world is sitting on a powder keg. In this connection, in the month and year of my birth, September, 1925, Werner Heisenberg published his uncertainty principle, the forerunner of quantum mechanics. Heisenberg was Hitler's atom bomb builder. Iran will soon have the atom bomb. I was born at the dawn of the atomic age. It could all soon end with humanity history written in the rocks. America is heading for the proverbial Battle of Armageddon."

"But take heart, my Gaia friends! Every cause produces an effect. There will be a contraction in government, a conservative reaction the likes of which the world has never before seen. This will be followed with a crossing of the threshold into the Age of Aquarius. All of the customs, laws, and religions will succumb to the "Higher Law" of nature and nature's "God.," For-When the moon is in the Seventh House, and Jupiter aligns with Mars, Then peace will guide the planets, And love will steer the stars. Aquarius! Aquarius!

I joined the "Now I Can See the Moon" discussion group. I introduced myself with this:

"In my chart, My Sun, Moon, Mars, and Mercury are in my Seventh House, the house of partners. It makes partners the most important in my life. In the song Aquarius,

When the moon is in the Seventh House,
And Jupiter aligns with Mars,
Then peace will guide the planets,
And love will steer the stars."
"With Neptune on the cusp of my Seventh House, it means I would be susceptible to misunderstanding in partnership matters. When I departed Flower Mound, at age 49, I was divorcing my second wife. The divorce trial was on September 8, 1975. I did well. We had just passed the new moon in the Seventh House, which correlates with legal action. That was a positive for me. My Sun in the Ninth House was a positive. My astrologer named other positives. But the big plus for me was "the part of fortune in my chart." My astrologer told me this indicated that there is a potential to gain from people who are secretly working against me.
During my time at sea, I married my first mate. She wasn't meant to be my mate ashore. She left me. Two weeks after she left, my fourth wife appeared. When the moon is in the Seventh House love will steer the stars. In other words, our consciousness is in touch with cosmic consciousness, which steers the stars. By the way, my transiting Jupiter opposed Venus in my Eighth House on April 4, 1976, the day I met my third wife. My astrologer had warned me to guard against that. Venus represents a women I might meet on April 4th. It's a minus, he told me."

On the first date with my fourth wife, a hike in the mountains near Mt. Saint Helens, on May 18, 1980, we were sitting on a log chatting when Karen said. "I want our's to be a platonic relationship." At that very moment, we were made aware of the eruption. I think of it as a symbol-after a calamity, hope and renewal. Later, I asked Karen why she said that. She didn't know. "It just popped out."

"Fifteen years later, a friend gave Karen an "Astrological Compatibility" printout he had produced from a program in his computer. In it I read, "Your relationship with Karen, the platonic thing was there from the start, and there is a sense of the brotherly and sisterly between you. Even if lovers, you will always be, first and foremost, good friends." The moment I met Karen, I had the feeling I was meeting an old friend I'd not seen for a long time."

"Believe or disbelieve that we're directly in communication with cosmic consciousness. It isn't any wonder to me that I can say if life could be any better, I don't know how?

God bless you

I was invited to add more of my input, so here's what I added to "Now I Can See the Moon."

"Yea, I see the moon, but let's discuss our guilt trip. When we look at the moon, we're looking at a body reflecting the sun's light. When we zoom out, we see the moon circling our water planet, a living organism; it allows life as we know it to flourish. So, let us zoom in on Mother Earth. By the sun's light, we see that Mother Earth is ill and we're the cause."

"We know how we make our lives happen. When I reached the age of sexual awareness, my parents handed me a book that said if I even thought about sex I was committing a mortal sin. This idea comes from the story in the Holy Bible of Adam and Eve. When they ate from the Tree of Knowledge of Good and Evil, they looked at their naked bodies and were ashamed. They covered themselves with fig leaves. The result: We are born in sin. How outrageous can we get?
In one of Aesop's Fables, we learn about the old woman who killed the goose that laid the golden egg. Fables teach us morals. The story of Adam and Eve was told by ancient authority, which wanted to control us, rather than though reason and logic, through guilt. How often do you do something, or not do something, out of the guilty feeling you know you would have if you did or did not do it? Think of the times you were titillated to do something forbidden that you knew would make you feel guilty. When I was fourteen, I lost my virginity. If I'd have gone to the church authority, by God's grace, I could have been forgiven for committing a mortal sin. I forgave myself and continued having sex every chance I got. Too many of us, all because of authority's efforts to control us, forgive ourselves and assume the freedom to do all manner of wrongs. The human beings I was using for my own pleasure were none of my concern. What I was doing was legal. If the girls I used let me have what I wanted out of love, that was their problem. What does it tell us when the President of the United States has sex in the Oval Office? Look at the representation we have in Washington, D.C. and weep! What if we were educated to be aware of the very real consequences of the freedom I gave myself? I was lucky. I could have gotten myself into a heap of trouble."

"In the introduction of my Scofield Reference Bible, I read this: ‘All of the connected topical lines of reference end in analytic summaries of the whole teaching of Scripture on that subject, thus guarding the reader against hasty generalizations from a few passages or proof texts. The saying that ‘anything may be proved by the Bible' is both true and false-true if isolated passages are used; utterly false if the whole divine revelation is in view.' A moral pertains to principle-the right thing to do. The guilt trip pertains to an attempt play on the emotions for the purpose of external control."

"Poor old Mother Earth! The story of Adam and Eve was put in the Bible as a misrepresentation for the purpose of control. Religious zealots reading isolated passages of Scripture rationalize their murderous acts and start holy wars. The winner is more holy than thou. Because we refuse to admit the truth of the matter, we are heading toward making ourselves history written in the rocks-killing the living organism cosmic consciousness put here for our growth and development.
A more complete understanding of the workings of the universe tells us there are immutable laws of motion, but there are happenings as a result of cosmic consciousness, of which we are capable of being aware. Such awareness makes us self-governed; we don't need self-serving external authority directing our lives. It's the guilt trip that makes us victims of external control. The world's authorities merely address the problems they create. Mother Earth is sick.."

"We find now that Mother Earth is moving away from the Age of Pisces, an age of authoritarian control, and into the Age of Aquarius. We Aquarians are independent, resourceful, self-reliant, and personally responsible. This is a transitory time. I'm pleased to report that we are heading toward the realization of our full potential."

The Moderator, KES said "We are not talking of the moon literally. It is an analogy. I may move this thing written as this section is introductions. I will read and decide where to put it.
I know I am going to move this conversation and will write to you personally." After reading my piece, KES said: "Talking of sex and dead moon I couldn't think with the intention and generalities and moved this here if you care to explain. Otherwise we run a very clean ethical group and I keep it that way."

KES called my piece, "talking sex and dead moon," this thing, as though it was a piece of stinking, profane garbage.

My reply: "Now I can see the moon," is not a monologue, is it? I mean, we all see the moon in our own way. The substance of ethical is that it be sanctioned, or at any rate not forbidden. How can we at the same time be "very clean;" that is, ignoring evil, and be "ethical." ‘I couldn't think?' Isn't that the problem? If you could be more explicit, perhaps I could better explain my intention. Otherwise, "we" (the general population) can assume ‘very clean' means we live in La La Land, something on the order of the Garden of Eden. We dare not partake of the forbidden fruit. One of these days, millions of people are going to wake up, and like children put out on their own, find they are living in a world they don't know. Look within and ask yourself, "Am I one of those?"

KES: "Very well put. Just know we have teens on this site and it is up to the group to set a good example. Thanks so much for the understanding. Just looking at the elephant from all of our own viewpoints, hm... some are different and that is ok. My viewpoint is in La La Land LOL!!! Thanks for bringing that out. We still regardless do have a moral code and ethics for this site and as mods reserve the right to have in this group what we feel is also all right for the greatest good of the group."

"We feel!" We don't think. What is unclean or unethical about what I wrote, or something teenagers should not read? Millions, like KES, are living in La La Land, looking to self-serving authorities to lead their way. Because they are afraid and clinging to the past, the world has passed them by, left them in a cloud of dust. And like Pied Pipers, the feeling, non-thinking people, living in La La Land, lead children on a Bridge to Nowhere.

KES put me on the dark side of the moon. I've a question for Gaia's management.  If you click on Gaia in the upper left corner, Gaia's mission appears on your screen. What is it in my philosophy, as far as Gaia is concerned,  that puts me on the dark side of the moon?

When I was born my moon was in Virgo. We read in Meenakshi's post in "The Power of Light:"  "The soulful, peacemaking Pisces Sun opposes the scientific, nature-based healing Virgo Moon. . . Virgo understands the oneness of all life through the physical realities of cosmology, mathematics and physics. In Virgo's world, holiness is achieved through transcendent embodiment, and from this state of embodied awareness one can heal almost any malady. . . Virgo understands the oneness of all life through the physical realities of cosmology, mathematics and physics."

And now another thought comes to mind. I've been made aware that there are growing numbers of extraterrestrials here, and they like hanging around the U.S. military's nuclear facilities. The military doesn't talk about it. We have corroborating eye witness reports on the military's hidden hardware of aliens, as well as alien bodies. We have reports on how the military has cleverly slipped alien technology into America's production facilities, items such as microchips and fiber optics. There are numerous reports of inexplicable livestock mutilations, numerous reports of alien abductions. Add up all the evidence and it is easy to suspect there is wheeling and dealing going on with aliens, of course, for the nation's security. It reminds me of Congress and the Administrations of George Bush and Barrack Obama, Wall Street, Fannie Mae, Freddie Mac, and the banks doing their best to help the economy grow. It all connects with Pisces, the age of authoritarianism and weak willed populations easily influenced by external factors. We are leaving that age-moving into the Age of Aquarius.

I was born with Aquarius on my ascendant. I'm Aquarius rising. Here's what Astrologer's Handbook says about Aquarians. "Individuals born under the sign of brotherhood and fraternity have as their symbol the water-bearer, who spills out to mankind the life-force and spiritual energy. Since the planet Uranus rules Aquarius, friendship and companionship are extremely important to Aquarians. Those who Aquarians befriend have their unswerving loyalty. Born under a fixed sign, Aquarians have eccentric temperaments and are determined and stubborn. They sometimes feel that those who are listening to them are unreceptive and incapable of comprehending their ideas, and they tend to become annoyed when people fail to understand them."    WOW!
