Through a Monocle Darkly: The Celestial Influences for the Week of March 19

 

Re: last week’s prediction of a political assassination? Nailed it. I honestly should have made the poisoning prediction, what with Scorpio being involved and all, but it’s been so long since I’ve done this I was pessimistic about my prognositcatory prowess.

So, we’ve got most of the planets lining up: The Sun, Mars, Jupiter and Venus with Mercury in opposition. This indicates that people with power get the best sexual partners, and that this condition is unlikely to change. No shit? Thanks for the insight, celestial sphere. No really, I can’t wait to see what you have to tell me next. Maybe something about the relationship between water and wetness? Fire and heat? Progs and progging? Honestly, there are times when it just isn’t worth it to drag the star charts out, much less look up.

That’s no mo–

The sun is (still) in Pisces, but nothing else is. So all you Pisceses out there, just keep being y’alls double-fishy selves and enjoy it while it lasts.

We still have Jupiter retrograde in Scorpio, but with Mars moving out of Sagittarius into Capricorn, we don’t have the immediate threat happening. Instead, this is looking less like sabotage and more like Leaders being general rake-stepping fuckups. With extra belligerence, because…

As I mentioned before, we have Mars in Capricorn. This bodes well for Battlestars, and cautions everyone else that maybe they are the ones being an asshole this week.1 Doubly so because Saturn (exalted) is also in Capricorn. Bad luck, loss, destruction… fighting is bad m’kay? Postpone any planned fights.

Now, for the one thing that you were all interested in last week’s revelation: yes, this week both Venus and Mercury remain in Aries. But joining it is the moon. Not only does this increase all the influences of the conjuncted planets, but with the Moon’s pull on the heartstrings and emotions, you are much more likely to form a deep, spiritual bond with your wooly lover (though why you would want this, I have no idea since I’m not a dirty kiwi.2,3,4) Also everyone knows: moon means anal.

1 This week?
2 Or Scot
3 Or Welshman
4 Or a lawyer who’s initials might be A.A.W.

    Looking over everything I missed this morning I have to say that I am alarmed at how divided the country is. We are really two different countries now with no border between them. I was especially alarmed over the video linked to in the links where the guy at the PTA meeting is trying to convince the other parents to harden the school. They all pissed their pants, called him nuts and offered nothing whatsoever as a sensible solution or criticism of what he was saying. They really are just pure useful idiots with a cabbage between their ears. Is the country going to have to split?

    I see the NYT is advocating a sliding scale for legal fines depending on the offender’s income level. They really are just attacking rule of law from every angle.

    How did we get here?

    1. AlmightyJB

      Colleges being indoctrination centers for marxism especially when it comes to school teachers and journalist both who pass on the indoctrination to their customers. So you have sheep vs non-sheep.

      1. Suthenboy

        I know what is happening, I am just puzzled as to how we let it happen. This shit should have been shot, stomped and set on fire long ago.

        It goes all the way down to the first grade of elementary school now. Add to that, the leftists are in complete control of the media. The only way to fix this is to end public education, otherwise within 2 generations from now, nearly 100% of the public will be dumb sheep and we’ll have a one person authoritarian leader like China. No free speech, no gun rights, no anything rights except the right to do what you are told, or else.

    According to deputy and school counselors, Florida school shooter should have institutionalized, keeping him from legally getting guns.

    But lets outlaw guns first.

    1. Not an Economist
      1. Some of the replies in that are horrifying. At this point, I assume anyone who claims they aren’t trying to impose a gun ban but are in favor of stricter “gun control” as a means of preventing mass shootings is either lying or has no idea what gun laws are currently in place.

        1. Akira

          no idea what gun laws are currently in place.

          That’s to be expected. The way the media and the Democraps talk, you’d think that a 10-year old can take an M249 SAW through the self-checkout at Wal-Mart.

          … Perhaps when we establish Libertopia, 10-year olds will be able to get full-autos from a drive-through on the way to the heroin emporium, but that day is far off.

    It’s not a fishing expedition

    The investigation into Russian meddling in the 2016 election has expanded to include President Trump’s family business, with the special counsel, Robert S. Mueller III, subpoenaing the Trump Organization for documents related to Russia.

    Rambling litany of things which might have or almost-could-have happened. Totally leads me to believe Putin put Trump in the White House in furtherance of his Evil Genius Conquers the World agenda.

    1. Hyperion

      To be honest, my guess is that mule face is getting lots of free tax payer money to investigate … something. So as long as he’s allowed to do it, it will just go on forever.

    ***
    All the corruption suffered by humanity is planned by the Jews. All the films about crime, killing, and abduction are produced by the Jews. Jews are behind all the films of prostitution and abomination. I don’t know what percentage of our people watch films of sex and prostitution on their cellphones day and night.

    The main alcohol manufacturers in Europe and America are Jews. The corruption of our women’s fashion was planned by the Jews. The moral disintegration is concocted by the Jews. To make a long story short: The Jews plan to make people leave their religion.

    […]

    The Jews said that Allah is poor and stingy and that they are rich. This is why, my brothers, the Jews are stingy. They do not pay their collaborators. They give them some change to top up their cellphones or have a meal somewhere. But how do they ensnare people? For that the Jews use women. They issued a religious ruling that says it is no big deal if Jewish girls have sex with non-Jewish men, so long as it is in the service of Zionism. Therefore, most of the [Arab] presidents and leaders were filmed having sex with [former Israeli Foreign Minister Tzipi] Livni, and they are constantly being threatened with this.

      Weekly World News was fucking awesome! I keep an old issue on my coffee table. The cover story is “Aliens Going Home: Why They’re Leaving“. Also mentioned is “How Did This 6-Year Old Get So Ripped?” and “Asia Miner: Family Digs To China“.

        It’s really hard for me to pick a favorite. I’m partial to “Einstein’s brain comes to life…and goes on a rampage!” but “Elvis tells alien bigfoot to shut us down” is not to be tossed aside lightly.

    Makar Vikhliyantsev is one of those millennials. He’s 33, and dresses like a Silicon Valley software engineer.

    He says that he’s old enough to remember a time before Putin. There were lines for food when he was a small child and barely anyone he knew had a car.

    “I felt ashamed for my country and for my president. And when Putin came, this sense of shame vanished. I gained this sense of pride. So you know, this is very cool.”

    He says when he bought his first car, there were only two or three other cars in his apartment’s lot. Now you can barely find a parking spot. “Life has improved,” he says.

    And Vikhliyantsev says that Putin appeals to him for another reason. “In Sex and the City, they present typical situations that women find themselves in. And it can be used as a kind of girl’s guide to behavior. Something very similar happens with Putin — when you watch him on TV, you see an example of how you should conduct yourself in life. I grew up without a father, so when I was a senior in high school, I had no idea of how to behave in this or that situation. But I would observe the way he responds, the way he addresses challenging questions. I found this very informative.”

    “The one thing I wish people knew about being a T/GNC educator is that teaching human biology as a trans person gives me a lot of insights into the ways that textbooks and standard curricula gloss over details to make things more “simple,” when in reality they just aren’t the complete story. Lots of students, teachers, and community members have perspectives to share that help create a more complete picture of how the body–or any topic!–works. That’s not overly complicated, it’s just good teaching. Listen to the wisdom in the room and you will be amazed by what you will uncover together!”

      textbooks and standard curricula gloss over details to make things more “simple,” when in reality they just aren’t the complete story.

      So, are they supposed to confuse students by explaining extremely rare exceptions to these general principles?

      “The brain is located inside the cranium. But some humans are born with a condition called anencephaly where they have no brain at all, so don’t other them!”

      “The heart is slightly to the left of the esophagus. But there is a condition called situs inversus where the location of internal organs is transposed, so be careful not to marginalize the lived experiences of individuals with situs inversus!”

      1. Hyperion

        All of this wacky shit is just filler. Public schools and even most private universities are not for educating. They’re for indoctrinating. Actually teaching real knowledge would just distract from the indoctrination, can’t have that.
