Marjorie: According to Huffington Post, Sen. Marco Rubio of Florida has pocketed $3.3 million from the NRA. He was virtually booed off stage last night by survivors of the high school massacre and parents of the deceased who accused him of being pathetically weak re gun control. Can you offer insights re Rubio and his political prospects? Will his stance on gun control help or hinder his re-election?
Fallout from the Florida shooting – teen activists and grass roots movements to reduce the voting age to 16. Talk about a wave of new constituents to face! During ‘Nam, voting age was 21 until the 26th amendment was passed, “Old enough to die but not old enough to vote” was the saying.
26th amendment – ratified July 1, 1971.
Dear Marjorie,
I noticed that lately (since about 19th November last year), you have started including Lilith (I think) in your charts. Was that a conscious move or was an an accidental one (your horoscope generation software upgraded or reset to defaults, etc)? Could you cover how to interpret Lilith in both personal and composite charts?
Accidental. Someone must have been talking about it and I switched that on and never removed it. I don’t know enough about it to make any really informed comments. Though having googled a few astro sites might be quite relevant to me since my Lilith conjuncts Chiron in the 12th.
“They both deal with wounds and trauma, where Chiron becomes a healer by dealing with his own incurable wound: Lilith deals with the denial of trauma and repression; digging it up by facing the shadows and the rage that follows, before she restores her connection with the universe again. The strange thing however is, where Lilith is an old essential part of this earth ending up as outcast, Chiron is an outsider: a planetoid who came from some place else floating around the universe, and got stuck up into the magnetic field of our solar system. Which makes him a true outsider.”
It’s not the most important point in a chart but if it connects strongly to one of your planets might be worth reading up.
And doubly interesting since I started a child abuse information campaign in 1994 as tr Neptune (Uranus) in Capricorn were trine my Lilith, with the aim of countering the wholesale denial of child abuse by those waving the flag of false memory.
What’s with the sudden emerging fascination with Patty “Tania” Hearst? Anyone have ideas?
Two movies out about the kidnapping of the Getty grandson. One in theatres and one made for TV. Patty Hearst’s name was probably thrown on the media bandwagon as another “heir” kidnapping.
Nationwide walk-out of schoolchildren April 20, the anniversary of the Columbine shooting. Spread the word.
I was going to ask Marjorie to comment on just the same. Thank you Chris.
Welcome 🙂 I really am curious to see if there will be a “social revolution” of some kind here in Florida this year (or next) as a result of so many Floridians taking action right now and demanding change (for the better) in regards to the gun laws in this state.
Marjorie,
I noticed you’ve written at least two astrological sights about the Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School shooting that occurred here in Florida on St. Valentine’s Day. I do appreciate your insights.
People here in Florida are still shocked and horrified about what happened and Floridians (especially young people) are now demanding that the politicians in this state do something more than just offer their “condolences” (which are void of any genuine empathy) and “prayers” (which don’t resolve anything).
High school students, teenagers, and parents have been holding protests in parts of South Florida and a student of Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School named Emma Gonzalez (who survived the attack) gave a very impassioned speech the other day at anti-gun rally about a need for common sense gun laws here in Florida.
Our state’s Democratic U.S. Senator Bill Nelson and Democratic Gubernatorial candidate Gwen Graham (both of whom I support) have been making gun violence their top issue and have blasted Republican Governor Rick Scott and Republican U.S. Senator Marco Rubio for having approved legislation in the past that has made acquiring guns easier here in Florida and in other states.
There are students and parents all over the state of Florida who are calling out the NRA, gun lobbyists, and gun manufacturers and demanding that these organizations stop influencing and funding the elections of corrupt Republican politicians here in Florida.
All in all, it there seems to be a strong social activist movement in the making here in Florida as a result of years of corruption, Republican domination, and extremely relaxed gun laws (which have led to an escalation of violence in this state).
I was wondering, from an astrological viewpoint, if you see any kind of major social or political changes playing out this year (or next) for the state of Florida (anything at all) as a result of all of this?
