My sentiments, exactly. I’m a Canadian. He doesn’t really have anything to do with how Canada is run.
In fact, does he even stand a snowball’s chance in hell?
Who cares?

This is going to seem to be a bit of a stretch, so I’m asking you to indulge me as I work through the prior lives of two prominent American political pundits, Roger Stone and Steve Bannon. Surprised? You shouldn’t be: we’ve seen something similar before when Thomas Edison returned as Elon Musk and horned in on Nikola Tesla’s reputation by ‘borrowing’ his name for one of Musk’s vehicles.

Joseph Goebbels‘ chart is considered correct, but might be one hour out according to other astrology websites. This one was already on my Kepler 7.0 program. There is one inconjunct:
You have a strong will and always want to have your own way. But very often it seems as if tremendous forces are working to prevent you from getting what you want. If you have this problem, it is because of the way you go about trying to achieve your ends. If you put too much force into your desire to get something, you may unknowingly alienate people because your aggressive manner shows that you will let nothing stop you from getting what you want. Even if that isn’t the way you really feel about it, you should recognize that your forcefulness creates this impression.

Could Goebbels have reincarnated as Roger Stone? Let’s see:

Yes, there are links, but I’m not entirely sure that they are definitely conclusive of reincarnation. But there’s something about Stone that ‘reminds’ me of Goebbels…
That smug look is also reminiscent of someone well known for revealing what’s going on and refusing to name his sources.

Again, Hermann Goering‘s birth chart was already on my Kepler 7.0 program. I won’t argue with it, since it shows a very powerful Yod pointing at Uranus and a second one pointing at Jupiter.
This aspect indicates that you have a positive, optimistic outlook on life, and you enjoy socializing with good friends. However, there are some dangers with this aspect. First, it can be a sign that you are self-indulgent and possibly even selfish, although this is not likely to happen if you have a good, strong relationship with your mother. You have a great need to be cared for and supported, to be accepted for what you are with no strings attached. If this need is fulfilled, the positive side of this aspect will flourish. But if your mother does not support your needs fully, you will feel insecure and will look elsewhere for support and fulfillment. In this case your concern will be totally for yourself with little thought for other people’s needs.
You have a tendency to be rash and impulsive, which may get in your way. If matters proceed too slowly, you are likely to make a sudden move that upsets the whole situation and forces you to start over again. You must learn to be patient if you want to achieve your objectives.
The problem with this aspect is to find a balance between, on the one hand, expressing yourself creatively, perhaps artistically, and having a good time and, on the other hand, getting ahead in life, learning the ways of the world and finding an acceptable role in society. You know you will have to make sacrifices in order to accomplish anything of value.
This aspect indicates a generation that had mixed feelings about its ideals and how to implement them. They often felt very confused about their ideals, and when they found that their ideals failed because they were badly formulated, this group became disillusioned. States of consciousness beyond the ordinary are very confusing to them, and they prefer not to get involved with such matters.
This aspect indicates changes in the world of the people who were born at these times, changes that were difficult to understand because they were very revolutionary but subtle in many ways. The people born during this period experienced the consequences of these changes through having to fight in the First World War.

Hmm. My instinct tells me that this individual definitely reincarnated as Steve Bannon:

I think this is a better ‘fit’ than the previous one. However, I want to remind everyone that both these two Nazi propagandists chose to commit suicide rather than face execution or imprisonment. Is this a warning for Stone and Bannon? Perhaps.


It took all of 5 minutes to get this answer when I asked who Emily Brontë may have reincarnated as. That’s a record, in my experience. But then, thinking about it, who better to carry on with her work?

This timing is considered good. What I was looking for was some echo of the Venus/Mars configuration from Emily’s birth chart. Here it is in the form of an inconjunct between those planets, with an extra inconjunct linking Mercury and Uranus. That makes perfect sense.
Your mind moves quickly from topic to topic, often without pausing long enough for you to understand what you have learned. And if there is a lot of excitement or activity around you, your mind may race so fast to keep up with it all that you work yourself into a state of nervous frenzy. Under these circumstances it is almost impossible for you to concentrate or do any useful work.
As you get older, you will have to learn to discipline your mind so that you can think things through. It’s all right to be somewhat restless, but you must learn to stay put when it is important to concentrate.
When you are older, this aspect will be most important in your relationships with the opposite sex, which you will become strongly involved in. While you are young, as well as later, you may be attracted to persons who, if you think rationally about it, do not seem very well suited to you. This problem will be greatest if you do not feel good about yourself, for it is a reflection of your own inner turmoil about love and your right to be loved.

Yes, this is a significant link-up between two great female writers. One cannot emphasize enough how connections between these charts are meant to be ‘proof’ of reincarnation. Is it obvious to you, too?


There’s a bit of controversy between this “AND” and the more traditional “YET”: just splitting hairs? No.
It becomes a moot point.
The term “eye of a needle” is used as a metaphor for a very narrow opening. It occurs several times throughout the Talmud. The New Testament quotes Jesus as saying in Luke 18:25 that “it is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle than for a rich man to enter the kingdom of God” (Jesus and the rich young man). It also appears in the Qur’an 7:40, “Indeed, those who deny Our verses and are arrogant toward them – the gates of Heaven will not be opened for them, nor will they enter Paradise until a camel enters into the eye of a needle. And thus do We recompense the criminals.”

I’ve discussed this previously, here.
The latest direction of travel for the Republican candidates for the 2024 election of the president is the “rich” man being the out-and-out winner. Something tells me that winning the candidacy is a poisoned chalice. In other words, ‘what profits a man to be the leader of the free world and yet goes to prison?’

I had to import this DVD from the UK, as it didn’t seem to be available locally. We watched it last night. Susan may have read the book that Emily wrote, in high school, but doesn’t remember much about it. I, on the other hand, remember a lot. And there are nods to “Wuthering Heights” throughout: a ghost story (this time involving a mask); a family nearby called Lytton; peeping through their windows at night; and, of course, the Yorkshire moors.
It’s a fictionalized account of how Emily Brontë became a writer. Not content to allow her fantasy life to evolve on its own, the film suggests that her older male tutor may have taken advantage of her during their French lessons. An early #metoo moment. But at the same time, her relationship with Branwell, her brother, may have been the true ‘corrupting’ influence in her life. We may never know, for sure.
What’s missing from the film is Emily’s love of all creatures great and small, including her faithful dog, Keeper. (Gee, I wonder how he got his name…) But I suppose there’s only so much that a film can cover in 2 hours and 10 minutes.
Emma Mackey is perfect for the ethereal nature of Emily’s personality. And her ability to speak perfect French (she was born in France) adds to the authenticity of her portrayal. Emma plays Emily correctly as “the odd one”. When the real Emily died at 30, from (perhaps) tuberculosis, the world lost an interesting soul way too young.


Jesus knew his audience well. What passes modern readers by is the juxtaposition of “good” with “Samaritan”. In those days, to the Jewish people, that juxtaposition is oxymoronic. Thereby hangs the message of the parable.
The parable of the Good Samaritan is told by Jesus in the Gospel of Luke. It is about a traveler (implicitly understood to be Jewish) who is stripped of clothing, beaten, and left half dead alongside the road. First, a Jewish priest and then a Levite come by, but both avoid the man. Finally, a Samaritan happens upon the traveler. Although Samaritans and Jews were generally antagonistic towards each other, the Samaritan helps the injured man. Jesus is described as telling the parable in response to a provocative question from a lawyer, “And who is my neighbor?”, in the context of the Great Commandment. The conclusion is that the neighbor figure in the parable is the one who shows mercy to their fellow man.

Now, watch this short video story from last night’s The National on the CBC:
Hmm. Even the distance caused by the CCTV images doesn’t erase the fact that several vehicle and bus drivers just left him by the side of the road. And then he died.
Where have all the good men gone
And where are all the gods?
Where’s the streetwise Hercules
To fight the rising odds?
Isn’t there a white knight upon a fiery steed
Late at night, I toss and I turn
And I dream of what I need
I need a hero
I’m holding out for a hero ’til the end of the night
He’s gotta be strong, and he’s gotta be fast
And he’s gotta be fresh from the fight
I need a hero
I’m holding out for a hero ’til the morning light
He’s gotta be sure, and it’s gotta be soon
And he’s gotta be larger than life
Larger than life
Somewhere after midnight
In my wildest fantasy
Somewhere, just beyond my reach
There’s someone reaching back for me
Racing on the thunder
And rising with the heat
It’s gonna take a Superman to sweep me off my feet, yeah
I need a hero
I’m holding out for a hero ’til the end of the night
He’s gotta be strong, and he’s gotta be fast
And he’s gotta be fresh from the fight
I need a hero
I’m holding out for a hero ’til the morning light
He’s gotta be sure, and it’s gotta be soon
And he’s gotta be larger than life
I need a hero
I’m holding out for a hero ’til the end of the night
Up where the mountains meet the heavens above
Out where the lightning splits the sea
I could swear there is someone, somewhere watching me
Through the wind and the chill and the rain
And the storm and the flood
I can feel his approach like a fire in my blood
(Like a fire in my blood, like a fire in my blood
Like a fire in my blood, like a fire in my blood, blood)
I need a hero
I’m holding out for a hero ’til the end of the night
He’s gotta be strong, and he’s gotta be fast
And he’s gotta be fresh from the fight
I need a hero
I’m holding out for a hero ’til the morning light
He’s gotta be sure, and it’s gotta be soon
And he’s gotta be larger than life
I need a hero
I’m holding out for a hero ’til the end of the night
He’s gotta be strong, and he’s gotta be fast
And he’s gotta be fresh from the fight
I need a hero
I’m holding out for a hero ’til the morning light
He’s gotta be sure, and it’s gotta be soon
And he’s gotta be larger than life
I need a hero
I’m holding out for a hero ’til the end of the night

Sometimes, the sins of the father are visited on their children to the third and fourth generation, and sometimes they’re not. This film is an example of how the next generation always seeks to better itself but finds their way blocked by elements of the past, which are surprisingly revealed by circumstances.
Peter Miller is recently married to his second wife, Beth, and is raising their newborn baby. His ex-wife, Kate, unexpectedly shows up and says their 17-year-old son, Nicholas, is depressed and has dropped out of school.
Wikipedia
Nicholas has a difficult time articulating why he’s depressed, but it’s evident to the viewer that his ‘special’ relationship with his father has been upended by his parents’ divorce. Now he feels split into two: his mother is suffering which affects him, but he still idolizes his father. This makes him feel “off”.
As I’m watching, I feel I ‘know’ how this will play out, and all the signs are there for his parents to read, but they’re so caught up in their own lives that they miss the relevant clues. I won’t spoil the ending for you.
The funny thing is, I been in both of their shoes. The 17-year-old son was a disappointment, at least to me, and the 25-year-old father decided that he needed to reinvent himself…
My Life’s a Lie
My life’s a lie; I’ve lived in vain,
As if I were a drop of rain
Amongst the waters of the sea,
As if I were the smallest flea,
That burrowed in a lion’s mane.
.
From joys of life I did refrain,
My only feelings were disdain
For those who came too close to me:
My life’s a lie.
.
So as the streetlights slowly wane,
I’m waiting for a lonely train,
To leave the love I feel for thee,
As I become forever free;
A thought-filled pain stabs at my brain,
My life’s a lie.
David Stewart Miller (1975)

It was last night’s final question.
I immediately Googled Amenti and got this:
The Duat (Ancient Egyptian: dwꜣt, Egyptological pronunciation “do-aht”, Coptic: ⲧⲏ, also appearing as Tuat, Tuaut or Akert, Amenthes, Amenti, or Neter-khertet) is the underworld in ancient Egyptian mythology. It has been represented in hieroglyphs as a star-in-circle: 𓇽. The god Osiris was believed to be the lord of the underworld. He was the first mummy as depicted in the Osiris myth and he personified rebirth and life after death. The underworld was also the residence of various other gods along with Osiris.
The geography of the Duat is similar in outline to the world the Egyptians knew: There are realistic features like rivers, islands, fields, lakes, mounds and caverns, but there were also fantastic lakes of fire, walls of iron, and trees of turquoise. In the Book of Two Ways (a Coffin Text) there is even a map-like image of the Duat.

Amen (to a) ti.
“And he saith unto them, Why are ye fearful, O ye of little faith? Then he arose, and rebuked the winds and the sea; and there was a great calm.”
We do not trust the Universe to take care of us, so we fret about our lives, and we fear what tomorrow may bring. Why is that? Have we been hijacked by negativity? When you think there is a lack in any resource, you will experience it. Can we do it a different way? Of course, we can.

5 Trust in the Lord with all your heart
Proverbs 1:5-6 NIV
and lean not on your own understanding;
6 in all your ways submit to him,
and he will make your paths straight.
