A Portrait of Polly's Perspective!

by Jude Cowell

Although many moons have passed, my Portrait of Polly's Perspective, a simple pencil drawing on white paper, is finally completed for your consideration!

Inside scoop: Her expression suggests something of a throwback to my past days as high school newpaper cartoonist, and Polly's unusual point of view as depicted in this pencil portrait reminds me of my own views when the principal of my school vetoed my more, shall we say, political cartoons.

In other words, Mr. Hmhmhm basically turned the high school cartoonist into a Caspar Milquetoast via censorship, so that Fight the Power leanings of the 1960s were successfully squelched.

Yet all these years later, we find that Polly retains her own ideas!

So for political ideas and topics discussed through the excellent lens of Astrology, join me at Stars Over Washington where I attempt to translate astrologese into English, and you're free to agree or take issue as you may!

'Purple Pansies' by Jude Cowell w Spinning Art Cube



Have you seen my drawing of Purple Pansies somewhere before? Maybe you have here, there, or...perhaps as the banner image for my Zazzle Art Shop, mmm-m-m?

Well, don't go art browsing there yet!

First, please try to spy Purple Pansies on one panel of a 6-sided spinning Time Capsule Art Cube from 1996. Cosmic drawings are included so you can see what my pencils were up to in those olden days.

Spying Hint: you'll see more of the stone stairs from the drawing above and less of the pansies. C'est la vie!

Fair Warning: tiptoe gingerly for there are huge gaggles of varmints, gangsters, charlatans, and stinging pests underneath the political rocks of Washington DC...

Plus, there's a Food and Diet article I published just today concerning the Raphanus sativa if you dare!

Bush on tv 9 pm



Tonight from the White House, our acting president takes over the tv airwaves to do his "Give me just a little more time and our love will surely grow" schtick once again. The office I respect. Its inhabitant has shown us what he is, and there will be more of same this evening.

If you're on-blog you may wish to click-to-enlarge the 9 pm chart where you'll see more notes than I can possibly type for you. But a few factors stick out like sore thumbs--that's the plummy thumb of power and control.

Heliocentric North Node of the Uranian planet, Cupido, keywords: the Family; corporations; a syndicate; groups...at MC, Point of Aspirations/Goals.

Cupido currently 3Tau24 Rx is rising in the chart which represents Bush's speech...so that's a double Cupido flavor to the speech..."4Tau": "A rainbow's pot of gold" (Sabian Symbols in Astrology, Dr. Marc Edmund Jones.)

Even if he begins a minute or two after the hour, this chart symbollically represents the 15 minutes of pleas, anger, and threats we shall hear.

The 9 pm time is during an hour of Saturn--a good time for control and authority issues. If he speaks for 15 mins as advertized, the hour will become Jupiterian, suitable for expansion, religious concepts, and war.

Corporatism's signature lies elsewhere in the chart as well as the Pluto/Chiron midpoint is being pointed to at MC--oppression as a goal, class warfare as an aspiration.

At speech's end, Neptune/Pluto's midpoint, the pair of the Generation of Materialism (1892-93; robber barons: pillagers, speculators, spoilers) yet of course we may see this as a Middle Eastern motif--Neptune/Pluto with a Jupiter influence...sectarians.

Vengeful Venus is one of two planets which change houses during his nibs' 15 minute-presentation--Venus 17Leo08, the heart of the Scorpion degree, approaching her position on 9/11/01--which conjuncts the national ASC of Iran.

The other 'planet' to change houses is the Sun 20Vir50, conj Fixed Star, Denebola (Beta Leo), keywords: to go against society; being on the edge of the establishment.

Denebola is a very interesting star, and since it is linked to the Sun in this chart (Sun = the leader in a national chart), I call its influence for George Bush.

It is in the constellation Leo as is a Royal Star of Persia, Regulus, keywords: success if revenge is avoided. Zosma is there also, representing ones who are victimized by the system and minority group needs.

Please remember, Y'all--it is no pleasure for me (to attempt) to underrate or undercut Bush-as-President. He does that all by his lonesome, as a matter of fact.

The only nag I ever had in the race is/was America, so it's what he's brung to the party during this interminable tenure of a megolomaniacal, messianic-complexed, street-fightin' hombre of a sidewinder that I fuss about. To dissent from having a fascist America is simply how I roll as a child of the Revolution--I know of no other way to be when it comes to my country.

A Higher Power will reward Mr. Bush for his motivations and for what he has wrought upon the planet, and a Bush political "legacy" is as a nuthin' muffin when it comes to that Day. If by their fruits ye shall know them means anything, this man surely manifests a lot of mayhem which seems to follow him where 'ere he goes. Even flying in circles on 9/11/01 as diversionary tactic seems to show he was being sought.

Sept 13, Thursday, 9 pm:

Tonight's speech when averaged with Bush's natal chart (2 charts used--Composite Natal and Composite Davison, not shown) shows a tremendous awareness of the potential for loss. What he discounts publicly is that his early lies which have lead to the impossible gumminess and tragedy of our valiant soldiers being based in the Holy Land as occupiers--a fact which is too large to be denied--is that he doesn't want the 'withdrawal' to be on his 'watch' because it won't be going so well, if history is our teacher.

His waggeldy tail will droop like a scalded dog if he's forced to ace us out of the desert, and his own demons (as a victim of the Unconscious--Cetus the Whale, Menkar) may possibly overwhelm him. No one is a match for the Collective Unconscious once the dragon awakens.

And with tr Saturn in process of meeting the tr South Node (SN = tail of the dragon) (October 07) we may wish to read this as past Saturnian work (Virgo; also health) being swept aside by the dragon's tail.

Well as always, there is much more to say about this chart, but I leave you for now to click/enlarge the chart to read my scribbly notes--there's a large thunderstorm on the way here, even at my door! Perhaps I may update this post after Bush speechifies...must correct dumbleheaded typos.

So let me know what you think about the whole mess.
