Go The Singularity!

Well, I love that the Ancient Mayans aced the Venus cycles absolutely yonks ago – without telescopes et al, they figured that the Morning Star & the Evening Star – Venus a.k.a. Xolotl – were the same planet, even though appearing on different sides of the sky.

But so far as the future goes, I’m  backing Ray Kurzweil,  a futurist, entrepeneur & mathmatician who says we are about to experience a fabulous & mind-boggling event known as The Singularity.  I was reading a profile of the gent this morning & I knew within nanoseks that he is an Aquarius.  Even apart from The Singularity, all the Aqua indicators were there…

* He invented a program called FatKat – Financial Accelerating Transactions from Kurzweil Adaptive Technologies – that plays the stockmarket for him so that he has more time for other projects. He also invented an automatic poetry generator called the Cybernetic Poet. He has a part-time employee purely to manage his vitamins and nutritional supplements. He is currently working on nanobots that will be injected inside the body to extend human lifespan. Has not consumed sugar for decades but drinks red wine daily, for the reservaterol.

And yah! He is Aquarius – Feb 12 1948 so also with Saturn-Pluto in Leo & Uranus trining his Aqua Sun.

I can’t quite grok what The Singularity is all about…only that amazing technology will be harnessed for the good of ALL – ie; feed the whole world & revolutionise all that ails us now. This would, of course, be a wonderful manifestation of innovative Uranus in gung-ho, pioneering Aries, Pluto in Capricorn & Neptune in Pisces….All of which is upon us soon.

So, next time someone grizzles to me about the Mayans, 2012 movie et al – I shall say ‘but what about The Singularity?’ and be done with it.

Okay, so I don’t watch television except in snippets at the gym (they are seriously flogging flesh-coloured full body stocking corsets as fashionable alternative to diet and exercise on morning telly at the moment  – the ladies gushing about them deserve Oscars recognition) but have I missed something?

Once again, my in box is featuring nervy requests for reassurance, clarification or – my favourite – “a proper timeline” for the alleged shit-fest of 2012 a la the Mayan Calendar running out. Guys, I said it more thoroughly  before so just click back and read please but in essence; no, i don’t think there is anything inherently crappy about 2012, i am sure some Mayan scribe just got fed up with inscribing calendars so far ahead and other calendars (eg; I think, the Hare Krishna one) say we zooming into a Golden Age.

But the 2012 shitfest theory is not one most astrologers take at all seriously, although it’s an undeniable mover of product. Or, if you WANT to believe it, e-mail one of the sites endorsing this theory & get the timeline off them! I don’t believe it & I don’t like the mindset behind it.

Pluto in Capricorn & the G.F.C.

G.F.C. for Global Financial Crisis sounds vaguely unwholesome. Too much like K.F.C. Has anyone got a more evocative term?

Anyway, Alan Greenspan backing bank nationalisation in the USA feels super-revolutionary. Forced growth indeed. Am not trying to turn this into an economic-political blog at ALL but this is radical & Pluto is only, i don’t know, TWO degrees of Cap right now.

My son was telling me last June that he’d met some financial planner some place who said there would never be a recession for all these reasons. And I said, with all my astro-authority that come December (Pluto into Capricorn) there would be the beginning of a recession/depression/financial shite unlike any we had ever seen before. And he was like “Woah, you sound like some scary soothsayer dude…” But, yah.

And then the other day he asked when it would get better – the G.F.C. – astrologically. And the first thing that came into my mind was that the actual trending  upward again, post-reformation et al would most likely be when Uranus went into Taurus  & began to trine Pluto…”So,” said my son, brightening, “is that soon?”  He trusts Taurus energy, has it rising and thinks every Taurus he knows “really has their fuqing shit together.”

“2018,” I said. “BUT,” I had to add this whilst running after him. “But Neptune in Pisces sextiles from January 2012 and that could be really good.” He looked really doubtful. “It’s still a long way away….And isn’t Neptune drugs and artists?”  He listens! Finally i said that i think it will improve when Saturn (ruler of Capricorn) goes Direct in May. He rolled his eyes. “Is there anything next week?”

2012Doomsday2008

Is it the Eclipse??? I have an in-box full of fretful queries re the world ending in 2012 a la the Mayan Calendar & maybe the new movie of the same name. I have barely read these e-mails as they fuq with my Qi!

Seriously, it’s awful. What if the Buddhist calendar says we’re going into a Golden Age? Why so much credence given to the Mayans? This sort of gleeful pessimism has been with us for yonks. I remember chatting to a really well known psychic person crapping on about Earth Changes & Leura (high in the Blue Mountains near Sydney) becoming the new waterfront back in 1999.

This was after the August ‘99 Grand Cross-Eclipse thing that, disappointingly to some, did not end the world.  This woman said to me earnestly,  “let me put it this way, there won’t be a Sydney Olympics in 20oo.”  We were all supposed to be underwater or vapourised.  My uncle’s mistress joined the Jehovah’s witnesses at one point & they also seemed to thrill to the idea of the end of the world. Note that some of the New Agers & some Christians share similar beliefs that somehow the believers or those with a high enough vibe – whatever – will be carefully sifted out from the rest.

And looking at the astro for 2012, it’s not so bad. Honestly! Neptune will be in Pisces, the sign it rules. And sextiling Pluto in Capricorn. More visionary recreation of biz-power structures. Yes, Uranus in Aries squares Pluto (as it does from next year, basically) and this has a signature of sudden, forced evolution about it but if it happened in a person’s personal birthscope, no astrologer would sit there & say ‘wow, you’re going to end…’  The prediction would be more like ‘get ready to farewell moribund and non-viable ye olde hat crap structures in your life’.  It will hasten the evolution that has already begun toward a more (ultimately) equitable, happy and prosperous world.

Seriously, please don’t e-mail me saying i am too optimistic re Pluto in Capricorn or whatever. The net is full of more pessimistic soothsayers & some of them even channel ancient barbarians to drive home their point. So go read them. I believe in loads of things – ghosts, u.fo.s, Feng Shui, astrology – obviously – but i don’t believe in New Agie nihilism. And I even believe this Eclipse tonight is so auspicious (a la Jupiter conjoining it all etc) that is ushering in a beautiful new era, the Age Of Aquarius, finally.  Amazing discoveries, innovations and advances in all realms will emancipate us from crappy old style cant and help everyone lead better lives.

If my 2009 and (later) 2010 astro books sell all right, i absolutely intend to be writing 2012. And no not from my secret hide-out, just in case. And the new ephemeris i just ordered goes to 2100, so there.
