Chicago loves big parties -- the bloggers & the (corporate) rockers at lollapalooza put a little bit of toddle in the action.
I'm an astrologer in the 48th Ward ... with a hard core jones for politics ... considering doing a regular online blog with astro insights on the campaign.
Here's a little navigation to get you through eclipse season -- the next new moon (Aug 12) at 19 leo is right on Obama's Midheaven -- that's the career point in a horoscope -- watch him & his camp carefully for new starts -- maybe a new issue -- the Great Lakes infrastructure issue is looming large -- local Chicago investment is the BP dumping crap in Lake Michigan -- my alderman has declared a boycott of BP -- that's an issue with very long legs and should involve the energies of the Great Lake States -- 8 of them -- 6 are blue
The first eclipse full moon August 28 -- 4 vi/pisces -- now if Hillary is born 8 AM chicago -- this eclipse is right on her nadir and she won't take her natal ward -- the 48th -- i don't think she knows the alderman's name ...
The second eclipse is a solar -- and it is ugly it is on 9/11 2007, right across the zodiac from planet uranus which suggests a very explosive set of possibilities
Hold your fire and choices until you've assessed how these would be helmsmen of our nation navigate through the eclipse season.
