1st February 2010

February's forecasts and videos are up, late as usual...  Look, we've all felt that change like we've never experienced it is coming, but I really think that it's imminent now.  I don't see this as negative in any way, but things are going to permanently change and many will be disconcerted by this.  At this time, the emphasis is not on the outer or the inner planets, it is that a succession of new and full Moons over January, February and March are all either on top of or exactly opposite planets.  This is a seeding time, where things are going to become more actual, where the compressed wrangle of necessity will wring out something new with a quasi magical content that will affect us not only technologically but consciously as well,  there is a flood coming but it is a flood of empathy and it's going to be here within a few months max.  And sometimes I can't write fast enough.  And this month with the new Moon on Neptune and the full Moon opposite Jupiter is going to bring the waters up for everyone, the dumbing down of population is failing and becoming increasingly redundant, and I think that the superfluous pop stars and politicians of the moment with their illusions of significance are about to pop their bubble.  And if you think that this is mad - March's new Moon is on top of Uranus!

Times HAVE TO change... for those willing to make the effort, go to 'A Green Deal for Manchester-Mersey Bioregion' to find the article 'Sustainability: Utopian and Scientific Times are upon us to acknowledge that we have reached (or are fast reaching) 'limits to growth' and that failure to acknowledge this, will lead us into a world of deep and dangerous conflict. In 1929 the depression panned out right into 1933, than came the rise of fascism and WWII to reset the world order.... This recession started in 2007.... Tensions between the US and China are very great.. and more... Here is the link: http://greendealmanchester.files.wordpress.com/2009/07/sustainability-utopian-and-scientific1.pdf

Oh..just to add to my previous post on the 'Green Deal Manchester-Mersey', for those who may relegate this article as just the vision of a (minority) radical left, please do not hesitate to look at the report from Tim Jackson, Sustainability Commission (UK) who is not radical left but a Fabian...... and you will see that in essence, the message is very much the same. We live in interesting but dangerous times... Foresight is essential. Here is the link to download: http://www.sd-commission.org.uk/publications.php?id=914 (Report is also quoted in the article posted on Green Deal Manchester) May we all try to make the best of these times, a window of opportunity rather than our demise.

I'm lighting incense, right now, that every word you've written here, about the transformation, empathy, and compassionate vision, comes to be. And that we're all brave enough to embody it. I find it sort of hard to do ... lots of times. thanks thanks.

We do certainly live in interesting but dangerous times.I went to a lecture last year and it's clear that we have reached our limits on economic growth . Paradoxically the basic message of the talk was "Less is more", and that the whole theory of economic growth needs to be rewritten if we are as a planet to survive ... Monetary policy- will Britain follow suit with America and Obama's daring decision with the banks- I read today that if this doesn't happen, a few years down the line an even worse financial crash will happen than the one we have just seen... Climate change- when will the climate scientists get themselves some really good PR to convince the public of dangerous levels of carbon emissions? Its as if nobody wants to understand how urgent the situation really is- its going to be to late when large swathes of land are under water, and populations are being squeezed onto less and less land- which means less and less land to cultivate crops... I would love to see a future of empathy, kindness, compassion etc- but in the grand scale of things it certainly doesnt seem to be going that way at present.
