U.S. Constitution: Arun/David/Sally/&, of course, Jorge

[Guest guest]

Hi everyone I just love taking biting criticism from such competent analysts. Honestly! I've learned things not apparent to me at the time of my analysis. THANKS to Arun, David and Sally. Really! Putting all my cards on the table here and now, actually I don't believe the radix for September 17, 1787 is more than what it really purports to be by its nature, and that which should be accorded to one among many very important American horoscopes: This 1787 horoscope represents the TEXT of the U.S. Constitution, yet not its 1788 enactment. The time moment I've established is historically accurate to plus/minus 10 minutes. I.E., the long standing rectification of record, posted at AstroDataBank for 11:29 a.m., was first published by Ralph Kraum and Ernest Grant in 1949. It's apparent that they didn't know the details of the history of that

day in Philadelphia. Naturally, Kraum and Grant's findings are the result of a rectifying fishing-expedition from which they arrived at 11:29 am. It looked right to them. Later, Catherine Bowen did the historical detail work, years after 1949. I read her book. You should too. Arun, David and Sally are in essential agreement on this radix. Forget about considering this radix as the birth of the national USA. Just reflect on what this horoscope says about America's 'living Constitution'. No wonder it's been a source of such political and social conflict these past 2-plus centuries. SO WHY DID STATE THAT THIS RADIX IS THAT OF THE USA ??: Well, I wanted to establish by re-emphasis a rhetorical point. If you review my post you'll see that I was making an argument in constructive criticism regarding the implications of Jorge's frame of reference for identifying

the birth charts of the individual U.S. States. Although I shall not belabor my position in future posts, I remain adamant that Jorge, however well intentioned, has opened a 'can-of-worms' on this matter. To follow his course of selection is by necessary implication to relegate the July 2, 1776 radix to a pre-natal-conception status. It's really that. And, yes, I don't like that. To submit in rejoinder that: "Well, it works." is hardly a scientific reply. I recall some years ago studying Rick Houck's birth chart for the U.S.A., which is June 19, 1776 @ 11:53:50, Philadelphia; Lagna 06:49 Virgo. Did anything noteworthy and historic regarding independence happen that day? No, of course not. Houck knew this, to be sure. He abided by it, "because it works." I can think of no more fitting tribute to the lunacy of anti-science than Rick Houck's sense of humor in this regard. Need I remind anyone about how

many astrologers committed to a July 4th radix sing the praise: "that it works", among them those who abide by either Sibly or Kelleher or Broughton (Broughton, July 4th, 2:13 am, when presumably supposedly the 7 Masonic conspirators among the 44 delegates were hard at work signing the Declaration.) When an astrologer declares: "because it works." I can only conclude the astrologer's hearing aid has been turned off. Conversation, finished. MORE ON MY DEAR FRIEND JORGE"S TIRELESS EFFORTS: Jorge may be unaware that the first 11 subscribing States to the U.S. Constitution were, all ELEVEN at once, admitted to this constitutional Union on the same day, Saturday, September 13, 1788 [my rectification, @ 12:32:21 hrs] Yes, the day that the Congress of the Confederation "resolved" that all ratification procedures had been complied with, and the UNION was then and

there commenced. If Jorge is to be consistent with the later joiners and their admission dates, then so too ought this admission date criterion prevail for all the States. If Jorge were to prefer the criterion of ratification dates, then when he re-visits the Confederate States, he's wading knee-deep in the muck of America's Civil War & Reconstruction history. Georgia was the last Confederate State to be re-admitted to the Union, at the point of a Marshal Law 'gun'. Re-admission date of record, and observed by Jorge: July 15, 1870. Ok, but when did Georgia earlier ratify this re-entry? Ratification necessarily always precedes admission in a constitutionally free society. Good Luck in the search for Georgia's Re-ratification before admission. TO HELP JORGE ALONG: VERMONT at Bennington ratified the Constitution on

January 10, 1791, but the State was not admitted to the UNION until March 4, 1791 RHODE ISLAND at Providence ratified the Constitution on May 29th 1790, but the State was not admitted to the UNION until June 14, 1790 [President Washington signed that morning]. Jorge has chosen admittance dates overe ratification dates for the later statehoods. I think the first 11 States should be treated in the same fashion; they are in need of re-statement by him to September 13, 1788, the day the CONSTITUTION was given effect, was born, and these first 11 were only then admitted.

My dear

John,

 

Thanks

again for your continuous clarifications.

 

I agree that

the September 17, 1787 chart presented by you should be understood more as the chart of USA Constitution. If we look

to this important event in the July 2, 1776 chart, we can have a

deeper understanding of it.

 

Dasha: Ma/Ma/Ra/Ju/Ju

 

 

Mars, L6

(judicial functioning, communal harmony in the country and labour relations)

transits over Jupiter, L2 (status and relationships within the country and with

neighbors), and Rahu (diplomatic moves, changes) is natally placed in H9 (judicial

system, progress and development), transits H2 and aspects natal Jupiter and

transit Mars.

 

The need

for a new Constitution came out of a lack of power from the central government,

as we can understand from:

By

1786, Americans recognized that the Articles of Confederation, the foundation

document for the new United States adopted in 1777, had to be substantially

modified. The Articles gave Congress virtually no power to regulate

domestic affairs--no power to tax, no power to regulate commerce. Without

coercive power, Congress had to depend on financial contributions from the

states, and they often time turned down requests. Congress had neither

the money to pay soldiers for their service in the Revolutionary War or to

repay foreign loans granted to support the war effort. In 1786, the United States was bankrupt. Moreover, the young

nation faced many other challenges and threats. States engaged in an

endless war of economic discrimination against commerce from other

states. Southern states battled northern states for economic

advantage. The country was ill-equipped to fight a war--and other nations

wondered whether treaties with the United States were worth the paper they were written

on. On top of all else, Americans suffered from injured pride, as

European nations dismissed the United States as " a third-rate republic. "

America's creditor class had other

worries. In Rhode Island (called by elites " Rogue Island " ), a

state legislature dominated by the debtor class passed legislation essentially

forgiving all debts as it considered a measure that would redistribute property

every thirteen years. The final straw for many came in western Massachusetts where angry farmers, led by Daniel

Shays, took up arms and engaged in active rebellion in an effort to gain debt

relief.

Troubles

with the existing Confederation of States finally convinced the Continental

Congress, in February 1787, to call for a convention of delegates to meet in

May in Philadelphia " to devise such further provisions

as shall appear to them necessary to render the constitution of the Federal

Government adequate to the exigencies of the Union. "

Across

the country, the cry " Liberty! " filled the air. But what liberty? Few people claim to be anti-liberty, but the

word " liberty " has many meanings. Should the delegates be most

concerned with protected liberty of conscience, liberty of contract (meaning,

for many at the time, the right of creditors to collect debts owed under their

contracts), or the liberty to hold property (debtors complained that this

liberty was being taken by banks and other creditors)? Moreover, the cry

for liberty could mean two very different things with respect to the slave

issue--for some, the liberty to own slaves needed protection, while for

others (those more able to see through black eyes), liberty meant ending the

slavery.

Convention in Philadelphia

 

 

The room in Independence Hall (formerly the

State House) in Philadelphia

where debates over the proposed Constitution took place (photo by Doug Linder)

On May 25, 1787, a week later than scheduled, delegates from

the various states met in the Pennsylvania State House in Philadelphia. Among the first orders of

business was electing George Washington president of the Convention and

establishing the rules--including complete secrecy concerning its

deliberations--that would guide the proceedings. (Several delegates, most

notably James Madison, took extensive notes, but these were not published until

decades later.)

The

main business of the Convention began four days later when Governor Edmund

Randolph of Virginia presented and defended a plan for new structure of

government (called the " Virginia Plan " ) that had been chiefly drafted

by fellow Virginia delegate, James Madison. The Virginia Plan called for

a strong national government with both branches of the legislative branch

apportioned by population. The plan gave the national government the

power to legislate " in all cases in which the separate States are

incompetent " and even gave a proposed national Council of Revision a veto

power over state legislatures.

Delegates

from smaller states, and states less sympathetic to broad federal powers,

opposed many of the provisions in the Virginia Plan. Charles Pinckney of South Carolina asked whether proponents of the plan

" meant to abolish the State Governments altogether. " On June

14, a competing plan, called the " New Jersey Plan, " was presented by delegate William

Paterson of New

Jersey.

The New

Jersey Plan

kept federal powers rather limited and created no new Congress. Instead,

the plan enlarged some of the powers then held by the Continental

Congress. Paterson made plain the adamant opposition of delegates

from many of the smaller states to any new plan that would deprive them of

equal voting power ( " equal suffrage " ) in the legislative branch.

 

Over

the course of the next three months, delegates worked out a series of

compromises between the competing plans. New powers were granted to

Congress to regulate the economy, currency, and the national defense, but

provisions which would give the national government a veto power over new

state laws was rejected. At the insistence of delegates from southern

states, Congress was denied the power to limit the slave trade for a minimum of

twenty years and slaves--although denied the vote and not recognized as citizens

by those states--were allowed to be counted as 3/5 persons for the purpose of

apportioning representatives and determining electoral votes. Most

importantly, perhaps, delegates compromised on the thorny issue of apportioning

members of Congress, an issue that had bitterly divided the larger and smaller

states. Under a plan put forward by delegate Roger Sherman of Connecticut ( " the Connecticut Compromise " ), representation in the

House of Representatives would be based on population while each state would be

guaranteed an equal two senators in the new Senate.

By

September, the final compromises were made, the final clauses polished, and it

came time to vote. In the Convention, each state--regardless of its

number of delegates-- had one vote, so a state evenly split could not register

a vote for adoption. In the end, thirty-nine of the fifty-five delegates

supported adoption of the new Constitution, barely enough to win support from

each of the twelve attending state delegations. (Rhode Island, which had opposed

the Convention, sent no delegation.) Following a signing ceremony on

September 17, most of the delegates repaired to the City Tavern on Second Street near Walnut where, according to George

Washington, they " dined together and took cordial leave of each other. "

 

Regarding

the coming into being of the different states on their admission dates, and not

on their ratification dates, it shows very clearly that they are not

independent. Their existence as states depends on the approval by the central government

and US Congress, and begins only in the appointed date, previously approved by

the President of USA.

 

The

chart of USA independence is the rectified one for July

2, 1776, at 16:48, in Philadelphia.

 

Best

wishes,

 

Jorge

Constitution: Arun/David/Sally/ & , of course, Jorge

 

 

Hi everyone

 

 

 

 

 

I just love

taking biting criticism from such competent analysts. Honestly! I've

learned things not apparent to me at the time of my analysis. THANKS to Arun,

David and Sally. Really!

 

 

 

 

 

Putting all my cards on the

table here and now, actually I don't believe the radix for September 17, 1787

is more than what it really purports to be by its nature, and that which

should be accorded to one among many very important American horoscopes:

 

 

 

 

 

This 1787

horoscope represents the TEXT of the U.S. Constitution, yet not its 1788

enactment. The time moment I've established is historically accurate to

plus/minus 10 minutes. I.E., the long standing rectification of record,

posted at AstroDataBank for 11:29 a.m., was first published by Ralph Kraum

findings are the result of a rectifying fishing-expedition from which

they arrived at 11:29 am. It looked right to them. Later, Catherine

Bowen did the historical detail work, years after 1949. I read her book.

You should too. Arun, David and Sally are in essential agreement on this

radix. Forget about considering this radix as the birth of the national

USA. Just reflect on what this horoscope says about

America's 'living Constitution'. No wonder it's been a source of such

political and social conflict these past 2-plus centuries.

 

 

 

 

 

SO WHY DID STATE

THAT THIS RADIX IS THAT OF THE USA ??: Well, I wanted to establish by

re-emphasis a rhetorical point. If you review my post you'll see that I

was making an argument in constructive criticism regarding the implications of

Jorge's frame of reference for identifying the birth charts of the individual

U.S. States. Although I shall not belabor my position in future posts, I remain

adamant that Jorge, however well intentioned, has opened a 'can-of-worms' on

this matter. To follow his course of selection is by necessary

implication to relegate the July 2, 1776 radix to a pre-natal-conception

status. It's really that. And, yes, I don't like that.

Masonic conspirators among the 44 delegates were hard at work signing the

I can only conclude the astrologer's hearing aid has been turned off.

Conversation, finished.

 

 

 

 

 

MORE ON MY DEAR FRIEND

JORGE " S TIRELESS EFFORTS:

 

 

 

 

 

Jorge may be unaware that

the first 11 subscribing States to the U.S. Constitution were, all ELEVEN at

once, admitted to this constitutional Union on the same day, Saturday,

September 13, 1788 [my rectification, @ 12:32:21 hrs]

 

 

 

 

 

Yes, the day that the

Congress of the Confederation " resolved " that all ratification

procedures had been complied with, and the UNION was then and

there commenced.

 

 

 

 

 

If Jorge is to be consistent

with the later joiners and their admission dates, then so too ought this

admission date criterion prevail for all the States. If Jorge were to

prefer the criterion of ratification dates, then when he re-visits the

Confederate States, he's wading knee-deep in the muck of America's Civil War

& Reconstruction history. Georgia was the last Confederate State to

be re-admitted to the Union, at the point of a Marshal Law 'gun'. Re-admission

date of record, and observed by Jorge: July 15, 1870. Ok, but when did

Georgia earlier ratify this re-entry? Ratification necessarily always precedes

admission in a constitutionally free society. Good Luck in the search for

Georgia's Re-ratification before admission.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

TO HELP JORGE ALONG:

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

VERMONT at Bennington

ratified the Constitution on January 10, 1791, but the State was not admitted

to the UNION until March 4, 1791

 

 

 

 

 

RHODE ISLAND at Providence

ratified the Constitution on May 29th 1790, but the State was not

admitted to the UNION until June 14, 1790 [President Washington signed that

morning].

 

 

 

 

 

Jorge has chosen admittance

dates overe ratification dates for the later statehoods. I think the

first 11 States should be treated in the same fashion; they are in need of

re-statement by him to September 13, 1788, the day the CONSTITUTION was given

effect, was born, and these first 11 were only then admitted.

 

 

 

 

 

My best to all,

Hello

Arun, David and List,

 

After looking at the chart proposed here, the (if

I'm not mistaken we are looking at) Sept. 17 1787, at 15:28:02 PM date as a

U.S. birth chart..

 

I noticed a few things. Mars is weak

and the assumption is it's inaccurate, contrarily, the fact that it is somewhat

strongly aspecting both the sixth and the twelfth houses, signifying losses and

accidents overseas, along with Ketu which brings extra volatility, tells me

maybe a weak Mars is more accurate since the U.S. doesn't seem to show much

forbearance when it comes to war like behavior.

 

Jupiter as well aspects both, signifiying

losses overseas which is accurate for war expenses and again overseas

interests.

 

Ketu afflicts the sixth house, health care is

atrocious from my point of view, as many Americans suffer it's lack and others

accessibility and affordability.

 

Saturn ruling status and wealth is well placed in

it's own mool sign, albeit weak ( I don't see leadership as being so

strong-looking after our best interests is not the most altruistic approach and

therefore could be considered a low approach). The status may come

from the Sun, chart lord , signifier of leaders and dispositor of both Venus

(American presence in the world) and Mercury (American fortune as clout).

Saturn also aspects the eighth house for status and eleventh for gains and

aspirations!

 

Rahu is in the twelfth, showing an obsession with

overseas interests.

 

There is an interesting combination of the ninth

and tenth lord conjunct in the eighth signifying some public philosophical

influence on the beliefs of the people. (status quo, propaganda), (hidden

agenda-Rahu in twelve)

 

The chart lord, Sun is eighth lord, (a Mars

influence), is well placed in the ninth house.

 

Just my observations on this interesting

discussion.

 

Aloha,

 

Sally

Dear SAMVA List,

 

Mr. Hawthorne is right; this chart is utterly weak in every respect,

with multiple afflictions as well. Rahu and Ketu afflict their

dusthana houses of placement as well as their aspected houses, same

with the badly placed Jupiter, and MMP Sun afflicts as well. Mars is

badly placed, and closely conjunct the Rahu/Ketu axis. Six out of nine

grahas are badly placed, with only one planet, weak malefic Sun,

One could vouch for Saturn's placement in the 2nd house, being the

lord of status/wealth in its own MT-sign, as being supportive of

America's high international status. However, Saturn, when acting as

determinant of status, usually does not bestow such results,

especially when placed in one of its signs. Such a placement (in one

of its own signs) tends to make Saturn act more like its own nature,

being the planet of lowest status. Saturn in such a case will protect

its MT-house with whatever strength it retains. However, I don't think

such a Saturn will promote a country's status/wealth.

 

Any other comments/suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

 

Best Wishes,

" Re-born " , on September 17, 1787. [ " Re-born " is a concept

you have

already used recently in another context.]. The logic of your

position is inescapable. [Actually, I don't think that one needs

necessarily resort to the concept of metempsychosis to explain this

process. But you imply undoubtedly (however unintentionally) that

July 2 ,1776, at least, has become in your estimation a pre-natal

moment in the birth of the American States

> Don't get me wrong. Your change of mind is a quite

defensible;

the rationale that you have adopted clearly does 'work', if that is

your intention. But do you have the courage to face up to the

implications of your own choice of rationale ? Because, if you

persist in the belief that the United States of America was born on

July 2, 1776, but all 50 States comprising this Union were born in

later years, starting in late 1787 with Delaware, then you will find

yourself in the embrace of one very glaring contradiction, the

implications of which need no elaboration just now; for they are

obvious. And the resort to an empirical defense of this

embrace-in-contradiction will not help.

in my previous post. Since you didn't act on it, so be it; however,

my inferences summarized already shall remain difficult if not

impossible to dispute, without some chagrin on your side.

> In my humble estimation, you appear to have painted yourself

into

a corner with the U.S. State charts by not addressing first the

question of the foundation radix for the nation State. In order to

persist with your line of assessment, it necessarily follows that the

U.S.A.-qua-bodypolitic radix of July 2, 1776 was but a pre-natal

conception moment for the American nation State's birth more than 11

years later, and the radix for which necessarily now becomes:

SEPTEMBER 17, 1787, Philadelphia. And after long study going back 2

years, I may add in further detail: @ 15:28:02 hrs, (Lahiri)

Ascendent = 07:23 Capricorn, MC = 00:13 Scorpio, Luna = 16:00 Scorpio.

Consistent with the results of our efforts, consider 15:28:02 hrs my

voted rectified time moment for this historic event. And read

Catherine Drinker Bowen's MIRACLE AT PHILADELPHIA, pg 262, for the

historical accuracy of this rectified time moment.

> I particularly like the radix of Sept 17, 1787: BECAUSE [01]

the

Lagna @ 7:23 Capricorn is in the very same exact position of the Moon

on July 2, 1776, @ 16:48:05 hrs [Your rectified time, Jorge]. And

[02]: the 1787 Moon @ 16:00 Scorpio is in the very same sign &

degree

as the Lagna of your 1776 chart, which is 15:30 Scorpio.

> Thanks for the fine work, by your efforts I'm now convinced

that

the U.S.A as a nation State was conceived July 2, 1776 @ 16:48:05;

then born on September 17, 1787 @ 15:28:02.
