(June 26, 2004) The first full week of summer hasn’t convinced me that it’s really here, yet. It may be playing around elsewhere but in Southern California we’ve been experiencing the ultimate June gloom and haven’t had much sun this month. So much for sunny So Cal!

Not being an astro-meteorologist, I can’t give accurate weather forecasts but I can sure tell the climate of human interactions and global politics. There is some heavy shit flying out there. Generating fear and insecurity are the Saturn forces, marshalling their centurions and legions of protectors of the realm.

Where there is power, there is control of the masses. Mercury conjoining Saturn is control of the flow of information…or suppression of it. They ban images of dead soldiers because they want to respect the families. There is no way anyone who sees that scene can know who is in the flag-drapes coffins.

The Pentagon has under-reported the numbers of casualties and they don’t want to blow the lid off of the story.
