End TRANS NARCISSISM, kingpin of WOKE UNIVERSE bullshit

March 24, 2023

I have a good friend, a tall, strong, manly man who, for many decades, despite marriage and children, wished he had been born a woman. So after his children were grown, Alan dared to make the switch: dressed as a woman, wore lipstick, took a woman’s name, and had fun with his altered persona for a good many years. All of us were fine with both Alan and Alice. No big deal. Then, a few years ago, he noticed himself wanting to be Alan again, dress as Alan to greet the day. At first, it was just once in a while. Now, it’s most of the time. He’s puzzled by his changed attitude, but flows with it, just as he’s accepted various phases of his life’s journey all along.

Alan’s “trans” journey is NOT what I’m talking about here. Alice was no narcissist.

I REALLY appreciate the above perspective, and to me it makes total sense. Unless those who would take control of the whole world succeed in confusing the natural, biological division between male and female bodies, none of the rest of the woke bullshit will work, and the globalist agenda that puppeteers it FAILS.

Meanwhile, here in Bloomington, Indiana, just yesterday, a story in the local paper about a high school teacher who placed a litter box in his classroom, inviting any student who identified as an animal to use it. WHAT?

The underlying issue here, to me, is the very notion of “identity” — one gets indoctrinated — by social media or teachers, counselors — into “identifying” as this or that, or even that (animal, insect, tree, whatever!). From this point on, whatever you say goes; and everybody else had better bow down to your narcissistic whims — not just tolerate you, but admire you, defer to you! Use “correct” language to address you! And since these faked “identities” seem to always be based on the body, I’d say that there’s an even deeper, ontological issue underlying that: so-called “scientific” (scientistic) materialism. As long as we identify with only our bodies, and then not just dress differently, but fantasize, hormonize, and/or surgically alter them to be other than what they really are, what they came in as, what they were born to be and become, we can be successfully indoctrinated into this absurdist nonsense, and thus, as Camille Paglia points out below, contribute to the ongoing cultural decay.

I say all this as a one time “tom boy,” who would much rather have been born a boy than a girl. Thank goodness I was born in 1942, not 2002 (or 1992?) when this woke junk began to subsume the “body politic” into its hungry maw.

Two crones I’ve long admired weigh in.

Pay close attention to Camille Paglia, who discovered, while doing research for her doctoral dissertation on “androgyny” at Yale, that down through history, it has signaled cultural disintegration.

Germaine Greer is hilarious; as far as I’m concerned, her irritable, cheeky attitude is exactly crone, and totally called for, especially in dialogue with her “politically correct,” woke interviewer.

(I know the video looks like it isn’t there, but it is. Just press the usual button.)

 

 

 

 

Pluto enters Aquarius TODAY. What to expect?

March 23, 2023

Share this:

Overall influence of Pluto moving from staid, conservative, structured, traditional Capricorn, to loose, wild, chaotic, networked, innovative Aquarius — well, what do YOU think it is? Remember, Pluto sets the wrecking ball to what ever sign it moves through. Death, to rebirth. Whatever is no longer useful, needs to go. In Capricorn Pluto has done an extraordinary job to ruin or deeply fracture the structures that have held socirty together since at least the last time Pluto moved through Capricorn in the late 18th century.

Remember too, that we have been undergoing the excruciating, first ever, Pluto Return to the U.S. chart, and are presently in grave danger of losing our Republic completely.

The point is, whatever zeitgeistian Pluto does in a particular sign, it takes a long time to do. Pluto began to travel through Capricorn in 2008. Remember that? The largest U.S. bank run ever took place in 2008.

And now, as Pluto begins its finale through Capricorn and shades today briefly into Aquarius, we have at least three (and likely many more) failed banks, two of them the second and third largest in U.S. history.

In fact, my long-term advice to myself, “live, as far as possible, below money” begins to make a lot of (common) sense. The financial system itself may crash, leaving us on our own — to trade, barter, gift, cooperate in ways not necessary until now, thus spurring the Aquarian spirit of continuous innovation as we attempt to remain centered while navigating chaos. More and more, we are going to recognize that “money” itself was merely a substitute for relationship.

Pluto’s protracted shift from ruining the WEF’s long term project of centralizing, hierarchical, top down, winner take all New World Order to life-or-death survival projects that ensure decentralizing, networked, cooperation among equals Aquarius begins now, today, and will take nearly three years to actually complete the shift from Capricorn to Aquarius. The dates are:

2023: March 23 to June 11 (in Aquarius, for less than three months this year)

2024: Jan 21 to Sep 1 (in Aquarius for nearly eight months in 2024)

2024: November 19  to March 9, 2043 when Pluto begins the process of moving from Aquarius into Pisces (in other words, PLUTO IN AQUARIUS FULL ON FOR ABOUT 18 YEARS).

Remember however, that continuous Aquarian low-tech innovation will not only be what I, and other luddites like me, want, but will also feature continuous high-tech improvements in AI, as the WEFers attempt to eliminate free will and reconfigure squirrely humans into robotic transhuman slaves.

Check out these configurations in this Aquarian ingress chart:

Seven planets total in only 43 degrees of the 360 degree zodiac, spanning parts of only two signs: Aries and Taurus.

Aries: Sun, Mercury, Jupiter (conjunct Chiron), Moon: ignition, new beginnings, fury, light fires, jump off the couch!

Taurus: Ascendant and Venus (conjunct North Node), Uranus: steady as she goes, grounded, earthy, fixed — but: eruptive Uranus there (since March 2019 through July 2025) indicates this ground underneath our feet will continue to be disturbed.

The key: center yourself in the whirlwind. Recognize your own embodied being as one center point of a continuously swirling world. Nothing is as it seems on the surface; everything continuously in motion; adaptation, on many levels, all the time, required.

Also: Notice that the Aries planets in this ingress chart just happen to be square Natal Venus, Jupiter, Sun and Mercury in the home-and-family loving U.S.A. chart. How will this play out?

Plus: the wounded healer Chiron conjunction with expansive, generous Jupiter in Aries not only squares the Capricorn MC of the ingress chart, but both then happen to be nearly exactly opposed and square the U.S. chart’s natal Saturn in diplomatic Libra. New beginnings, to heal broken relationships, required. On every level. Don’t just think politically and geopolitically. Think about broken relationships in your own life — former friends and broken family ties. Begin to heal them. We need full on mutual cooperation over many scales, if we are to not just survive, but thrive through the coming 18 years.

One very positive note: as Pluto in Aquarius gets going, it closely sextiles Sun in Aries: whatever cooperative new decentralized projects you can dream up (with Saturn in Pisces operating), begin to ignite them! With fiat money losing value, we have nothing more to lose. 

Oh, and one more, for the short term: notice that Mars, at 29° Gemini, moves into Cancer in three days, on March 26th. Expect an increase in emotionality, defense of family and family values, beginning then, until June 21st, when Mars moves into Leo.
