I am swamped today, so I give you Dharmaruci’s excellent take on the future of the Bush’s presidency (and not just because he quotes me!!)

But what happens when reality runs so counter to the worldview of an unusually rigid character like Bush? He cannot adapt, and he knows it’s coming, and soon. With his Prog Mars conjoining natal Jupiter ever more tightly, he KNOWS he is right about Iraq and the direction he is taking the US, and this to him might justify some sort of coup in order to maintain his policies.

From a comment by Kenna on Dharma’s blog Astrotabletalk:

I think the events of this autumn are likely to be even darker than you’re predicting. Just as Pluto in Sagittarius showed us the dark, damaging side of the US Justice System– beginning with the truth about racist cops coming out in the OJ Simpson trial– I think Pluto in Capricorn is going to show us the dark, damaging side of the US powers-that-be. Benito Mussolini said something like, “Fascism should be called corporatism, because it is the merging of state and corporate interests.” We’re there already, no doubt. Now, it’s just a matter of Pluto digging it out for all to see.”
