Life Purpose Report for
America

Numerology

As I started putting this report together, I realized that America is still a very young country and I think the report should be read with that consideration. America could be said to be at the age of a teenage youth in society today. We have not yet seen America’s true adult expression. America has the potential in the future to be the country which embodies spiritual enlightenment and the consciousness of the "New Jerusalem". Even the numerology shows an association with embodiment of the Christ consciousness.

Numerology is a complimentary divination method that provides a good starting point for astrology; it confirms and enhances the natal chart and gives a structure on which to build. Each singular number relates to a planet in the natal chart making it almost impossible to separate the numerology from the astrology. The birth date is "the destiny number" the given talent and life path; the lesson to be learned.

4 July 1776 = 4+7+1+7+7+6 = 32/5

32 is the number that shows mastery over the animal nature; it promotes the words admire, polite, respect and sanction, which will have great meaning in the life of America should the vibration be of a positive nature.
"Christ" is also a 5 number; [77/14/5] other 5 words which have meaning are glory and power. "America" has the same life path vibration as the Christ consciousness; it is quite possible that the life purpose of America is to eventually exist as an enlightened country.
3 = joy and enthusiasm; 2 = friendly, helpful, modest and diplomatic; 5 = adventurous, adaptable brave and free.
Because America is young, I think it is interesting to consider the negative 32/5 vibrational words too; fight, condemn, despise, oppose, vandalize, quibble. No prizes for guessing which vibration was dominant in recent events.
Many people felt uneasy with the turn of events, it was because the life path had a negative expression and many people of America vibrate with a positive expression. But if you read the soul readings of George Bush and Tony Blair you will see that this operation of liberating Iraq was planned before both men were born, and it was both their spiritual purpose to bring about the events that happened.

5 relates to Mercury in the astrological chart and Mercury in the American Chart is in the third house in Cancer. Mercury’s house position and zodiac sign says America's place in the world. This reads as a prime communicator, like Hermes, excelling in all forms of communication. [America is designed to be the communications centre of the world;
Washington [130/4] was to be the place of government and responsibility. New York [111/3] was designed to be the business centre, and inspiration; it is the throat chakra of Earth.] The third house relates to how the economy is to grow, how different parts of society work together and communicate in trade.
The third house rules all communication systems; roads, railways, telephones, schools and postal services, newspapers, computer terminals, television, literature and most importantly freedom of speech and official announcements.
The third house also represents neighbouring countries and those foreign affairs. Cancer is ruled by the Moon suggesting the nature of the communications, which are highly changeable. Cancer is the sign of the home and family. Being a cardinal water sign its powerful emotions are blended with imagination and intuition in making those communications.
Cancer in its highest expression is wisdom and knowledge, therefore the highest expression given for the Cancer Mercury as the path leader is "communicating the highest wisdom, with emotion and inspiration" to those internally and neighbouring countries.
Mercury has an horary value of +4 in the astrological chart, associating itself with the words of building [4] consciousness, conscientiousness, disciplined, good worker, family, patriotic, home, loyal, organized, punctual, sincere, studious and the law enforced. This shows that America is always building and working at ways of communicating, and the people of America work with that aim.
5 is all about freedom and the desire to come and go at will; it’s not surprising to find America = 32/5. America is known as "land of the free"; the ultimate 5 expression.
So as the negative 5 expression can be understood, Adolph Hitler was a negative 5 who did not understand the freedom for all aspect, just freedom for one nation. It became a destructive energy in his life.
Mercury in astrology is seen as a changeable character with a ready wit and forever restless; these attributes are part of America’s life path. Mercury is also associated with youthfulness and staying young, like Peter Pan. It is also associated with the nervous system, speech, education and intelligence.
All of these themes will have a meaning in America’s life. On the whole, the 5 destiny number is considered a good number as it brings kindness, wisdom, intuition, insight, happiness, alertness and good luck into the life. People often gain wealth through inheritance or the lottery or through taking risks in business.
This suggests that much was given to America in the past through inheritance, from the Europeans and the new nationals who bring their skills. The 5 predicts America to become a wealthy nation. 5’s are usually logical, rational and systematical in their approach to work and life. If they feel powerful enough to speculate and progress in the material world; they can be pioneers, or inventors in their line of work.
Already this has been proven, as America is seen as a pioneering Nation. 5’s gain great favours through the government, people in authority, political leaders, friends and relatives at some time in their lives. This possibly refers to the amount of planning by the European Masons, and the initial investment by Britain.
5’s are likely to gain recognition for contributions in their field of work, and 5’s make people versatile, attractive and naturally optimistic. 5 brings change to work and living conditions; it is also lucky in love affairs and people often live in foreign lands for a long period of time.

The name number, the tool used in life, the interactive experience during life with others.

America = 1+4+5+9+9+3+1 = 50/5; directed intelligence and the number of freedom". Beginning and ending with a number 1 letter, America shouts "leader"; the two 9’s give universal service, and 99 is the full number of Jupiter; again showing the promise of enlightenment, and 9 means brotherly love.
M=4; the builder, suggesting that even in America's given name there is a promise of enlightenment and brotherly love. America is known by esotericists to be the foundation [4] for the building of the new consciousness of humanity, also known as the "New Jerusalem" or peace on Earth.
1 = leader, 4 = foundation, 5 = public relations, 99 = enlightenment, 3 = peace, 1 = unique. [leader and founder in public relations, using enlightened peaceful and unique methods]
Interestingly, America's name is also represented by Mercury in the astrological chart, making Mercury the most important planet in America’s chart.
5’s were born to deal with people in general and to promote "freedom and progress". Change, new circumstances, new approaches, variety, versatility and unexpected happenings will feature greatly in America’s interactions. 5’s do not mix with the same people for very long; they teach other people about "liberty", then move on.
This predicts that America’s interests with other nations are short lived, just long enough to have the influence of giving liberation to others, but more about this can be gleaned from the birth chart.

The day of birth, the psychic number, 4, the attitude to life.

People born on the 4th, are practical and hardworking. 4 is ruled by the Moon's North node and Uranus, both are known to represent change; hence 4’s face constant changes in their lives, [the natal chart will say to what extent] there can be many ups and downs, or simply a constant changing to personal plans and arrangements.
This in turn brings about a doubting nature, regarding issues of trust. [Over what’s really going to happen next!] Uranus in Gemini is rising in the first house at the Ascendant, [! I am independent free and curious!] And the North node is in the third house in Leo. [having short speculative associations with others that belong to a large circle of friends/nations]
The North node is in the 3rd house of communication in Leo in the 1st decant, ruled by the Sun; the Sun is the weakest planet in America's chart, which shows the short durations are due to discontent. Uranus represents an original, independent way of life, which others perceive as eccentric.
Uranus is also rebellious, obstinate and prone to changes. America constantly requires the confirmation and advice of another, throughout life, as the power to discriminate and make judgement is seriously undermined with this number.
Interestingly, this feeling is so strong for confirmation that her people even in general conversation require lots of nods and yes’ in feedback, which other cultures hold back on; I’m sure it can be very unnerving talking to a Brit, who keeps really quiet.
One plan of action that a person usually tries in order to bring stability to the ever changing circumstances, is to become stubborn and obstinate, to try and make others change their plans, but this never works, as it creates even more fluctuations; it is America's lot to adapt to others, due to the number 4.
Because of this challenge of constant change, America is likely to develop the necessary boldness, courage and patience that is needed in her life, and those qualities more than make up for any anxiety and discomfort that she might experience at first; in time all anxiety disappears and acceptance paves the way.
4’s always support the underdog, in whatever manner they present themselves, but they themselves will belong to the upper class; mediocrity is not America's position in life. Favouring the underdog in conversations/policies can create problems for America by generating secret enemies.
Growth and development is a struggle because of the constant obstacles; America is likely to face criticism and opposition throughout its lifetime. America’s intentions however are fair by nature, and not quarrelsome. 4’s become reliable and patient friends, who easily adjust to circumstances.
On the whole America’s friends understand her to be a very helpful, large hearted, practical country that has brilliant ideas. America is systematic and efficient and will often handle big adventures and plans. Society loves 4’s for their unconventional and free thinking manner.
America can introduce great reforms to benefit the poor and aggrieved. 4’s are interested in reforms of all kinds, environmental, social, communal and domestic; so politics and spiritual organisations are possible areas where America might lead. 4’s love conspiracy and may even live with conspirators during its youth; [America is in its youth] anarchy, terrorists or lawbreakers, feature in her life just because she differs from the existing norm.
Accumulating wealth does not appeal as such; 4’s prefer to use wealth and America's generosity can make her appear wealthier than she is. America is an art critic; she loves art exhibitions, concerts, theatres and ancient relics.
In some ways 4’s do not have a clear picture of life, because the landscape is constantly changing; it can make America mistakenly think that her goals are unachievable. But it is quite possible for 4’s to make progress in leaps and bounds, acquire riches and become famous; because America is a practical planner, hard-worker, with a strong will, and she is not afraid of challenges. [gained by those constantly changing hurdles]
America is a self made country who just loves secrets and mysteries.

Ultimate number [ sum of name + Destiny number] = 5+5 = 10 /1

Number 1 relates astrologically to the Sun. The Sun is in the second house in Cancer, relating to financial resources, wealth, the economy and the national product. It shows societie's values and the attitude to national heritage. The Sun has an horary value of -5 in America's chart; it is the weakest planet.
A negative five predisposes towards carelessness, discontent and irresponsibility and is seen by others as taking dangerous chances. Ultimate 1 is to be aware of its individuality and its leadership skills in independence.
America demonstrates creative abilities, originality and is seen as a trailblazer, a style setter, self-reliant and a thinker and planner. There is a profound weakness in the reading; the psychic number 4 relies on others for advice and the ultimate number 1 requires total independence.
Perhaps it is the uncertainty of acting alone than brings discontent. Numerology along with reference to the natal chart has shown that America is certainly the land of the free and curious. She will be the communications centre of the world and in typical Gemini fashion will be constantly socializing with other countries for short durations.
While Rome conquered many countries, America's style as a super power will be to have many alliances that are beneficial to America.

Soul Group Chart

The soul group chart shows me the information of the energetic "fabric" [frequency] from which the natal chart is made; it gives the soul group purpose, and gives clues to the numerous possibilities and goal direction that can be found in a natal chart. Often people recognise this soul energy as describing their "nature".
The group is a third ray soul group, concerning itself with the ability to relate in the world. It is involved with matter and creation of forms; the ray energy is often seen as the builder or the architect, as energy follows thought. The third ray is on the mental plane, so it will also find expression in ideas and abstract thinking through scholars, mathematicians and inventors.
The purpose of the third ray soul group is to distribute "material" so that all humanity benefit worldwide. The third ray planets are Saturn and Earth; Saturn’s position is important in this chart. Saturn is in Libra joining the 3rd and 7th rays, bringing in the Aquarian age.
Interestingly, this soul group is my own. The concerns of the soul group energy and how it relates in the world is about "The personal appearance of things"; all things, be it on a physical, emotional or mental level. There is a great attention paid to detail in the soul group's surroundings, and the issues of organization are fully utilized.
On a grander soul group scale, the energy can be seen as an organized and smooth running unit, with a focus on either the material or the spiritual world. Those who focus on the material desires, work towards establishing a fine elegant appearance of tasteful design, while on a more spiritual level the concern is with organizing inner spiritual beauty which benefits others.
The energy can manifest itself in two ways, by directing itself into a successful and directed social being, or it takes on a more psychological route of spiritual well being, which can be directed towards helping others; this requires establishing and understanding some order of spiritual consciousness through some developed practice.
The group's aim is continuing the smooth running of America; while on a spiritual level, knowing where they are at and what they are working towards, seeing through other's chaos and making order; turning apparent chaos into an established pattern.
This soul group gives a widely diverse expression, one which is concerned for their own personal looks, or others looks, running and organising and bring balance into their own lives and others, then ultimately balancing their own and others psychologically and again balancing and overseeing other's life paths on a soul level.
In a nutshell the soul group promise enlightenment, going from a materialistic outlook In life to one of a spiritual outlook which helps others, not in a sacrificial way, but as an energy exchange. At this moment in America's youth, the spiritual well being that is to be directed towards others is not obvious;
the soul group energy is expressed in a more social way, as appropriate for a youth with the enjoyment of materialism, pop music, face lifts, movies and literature--youthful pastimes; while being curious over just about every issue. When America takes its place as the enlightened country it was designed to be, the leadership will be geared towards helping other countries;
there will not be a "them and us" attitude, but how can we trade so as to both gain out of this. The soul group energy needs other countries in order to exist. On one level, understanding of the self comes through mixing with others, and on another level, self understanding in turn is used to help others.
The soul energy requires interaction with others for personal growth. The energy postulates that there must be balance in these relationships; there cannot be too much giving or receiving, from one person; the lesson is in creating energy balance in relating with others. Relationship requires exchange. America is to be respected by the rest of the world.

Right at the heart of the soul group energy are the midpoints--Uranus/MC = Jupiter/Saturn = Mars/MC = Vx = Eq AS; giving original objectives, assertion, fortunate changes, inventors, physicists, musicians, perseverance, philosophy, professor, teacher, lawyer, official, = organiser, leader, leading personality, success.
Creative ideas are highlighted by professional organization[s]. The reason for interaction is to build spiritual awareness in collective beliefs. Pluto is out of bounds; meaning it is not subjected to the restrictions of Saturn; transformation, power and regeneration is unlimited. It will be interesting to watch America go through the 3 stages of evolution to reach its fullest potential;
the first phase we have seen as a need for dominance in the world, and its concerns are for materialistic gains; the second stage see people and events as being either winners or losers in the world, [where the word "looser" comes from] this stage is totally idealistic in its view of the world, but it sees itself as separate, as me v them; [the stage I believe we are seeing right now] then the final stage is one of being realistic.
This will be the age of the social innovators, prominent in the worlds of finance, politics and diplomacy. Balancing will, love and intelligence in every situation America finds itself. It will not be until America reaches the third stage of expression that the enlightened [female] leaders will take their place as Presidents;
at this final stage, Venus works through the world of form while Uranus works through the world of ideas. The American charts evoke the female energy by using the 3 main stars of Virgo placed on the ecliptic.

Natal Chart

America’s life path is shown by Libra and the planets Venus and Uranus. Notice that they are the same planets and sign as indicated when America is fully enlightened according to the soul group energy. The soul group is definitely seeking expression through America’s natal chart. Relationships are at the core of this life-path, desperately needing many people and interactions to integrate the personality;
relationships become more varied yet personal. Uranus shows sudden transformations, and when working out of phase America will attack crystallized institutions [countries] in society. Out of phase living is a resistance to any transformation within America itself.
When working true to the life path, America faces constant challenges, learns from her past and adapts with new legislation and methods. The old ways have a very limited shelf life, tradition is "The constant changing itself".
An example of a typical relationship interaction--through some abrupt unsettling change [Uranus], there is a personal loss; America is thrown into perceiving there is discord in the world; [This sounds very like the 9/11 attack]
America seeks a partner and the two leaders soon establish a deep rapport; the relationship looks promising until one partner leaves, looses interest, or reveals a hidden side, or something that indicates the partnership was not as strong as America thought. America feels cheated, alienated, but in order to stay true to the life path, amidst all the anxiety a new image must replace the shattered one.
This cycle goes on indefinitely with all relations and interactions with others; one experience following the other. Finally America accepts constant change for what it is, without expectation from any other country or liaison.
America's life path is about learning to have confidence in its own interaction; soon as the very different and unusual companions [leaders] come and go from all over the world, America will develop an openness to others, welcoming others with honesty; ensuring America has many friends from all over the world;
the friends [leaders] only unite for the duration of the events which required unity. Eventually America greets all new leaders in relationships as if they were old friends of many years. Out of phase relationships, which would lead to America's decline would be experiencing profound disillusionment with every encounter, in fear of conflict or bereavement.
In a state of insecurity the nation goes to the excesses of food, drink and drugs as a distraction, which leads to illness of the nation. America will never have a singularly stable Ally, but is designed to be congenial to all countries.

Sun at 12 44 Cancer, ruler of the 4th house in the 3rd house.

This gives the natives of America good fixed assets, in the form of cars and homes, earned through effort and perseverance. America reacts emotionally and gives to the less fortunate. There is also an interest in educating in foreign countries. As the Sun is the weakest planet with an horary value of -5, a negative five predisposes towards carelessness, discontent and irresponsibility and a taker of dangerous chances;
this infers that despite all the comforts of home there is an inner discontent running through America's people. -5 in a destructive way is about the abuse of drugs, food, and drink, gambling and perversion, things that are associated with self indulgency.
This will be always an ongoing problem for America. This position of the Sun shows that America's identity is deeply fulfilled when She represents a country of people of which she is proud. America’s roots are extremely important for her, and the people rarely let themselves or anyone else forget where they come from.
The American people like to make their mark as contributors to a larger effort. The American people make a strong and renewed commitment to America, on a regular basis; [the allegiance to the flag] each person strives to be either a leading representative or a devoted member.
America’s people wear their earlier background displayed with pride. Celebrations are important to Americans, particularly July 4th, Independence day; patriotism is displayed with a desire to improve the nation; all Americans have the unusual attribute of actually being interested in political and social events. [in comparison to other countries who are often apathetic towards political issues]
America senses the unspoken thoughts and feelings of others. This position is often associated with people having psychological or physical peculiarities; this makes America's people different from others. [i.e. On reading a health report, it was reported statistically, Americans are growing shorter, while the rest of the world is growing taller]
The attributes of the Sun position is faithfulness, giving and proud; the weakness of the position is through egocentric, biased and fixed views.

Moon at 18 10 Aquarius, ruler of the 2nd and 3rd houses in the 10th.

Moon parallel Sirius; success in business, influential friends of opposite sex, favourable for the father, good health, beneficial changes in home or business. (Robson) The Moon has an horary value of +4, showing the attributes of a good worker, honest, reliable, patriotic and disciplined, family lover.
This signifies there will be good finances and positive career developments in communications related work. [i.e. internet, computers, sales, writing, lecturing etc.] It shows that good instruction is given, particularly in early education and beginners. Often income comes through one's own initiative and reputation, associated with the food business [MacDonald’s], speaking, philosophizing, activities related to face [face lift surgery], mouth [dentist], teeth, throat, using the voice to express power [pop groups, films], activities of the face, also earning money through constant study [Universities].
Remember this is all in keeping with the soul groups concern for "appearance" and how things look. The spiritual expression is less obvious, but feeling better makes people feel more attractive. This Moon position is about possessing emotional security; there is a social vision and a desire to right any existing inequalities; [even if nature did give crooked teeth]
it is a very idealistic position, which makes its owner overly critical, yet living by any ideals are often quite unrealistic. Whatever is the closest to divinity, nature or universal values are the best there is. This appears to be expressed as desiring to attain the most perfect body at the moment.
Being youthful is greatly valued, and people try to stay youthful as possible. [in their appearance] Growing old gracefully does not give emotional security. This position also makes for astute judges of character and students of the human heart and personality. America invented the counsellor and the therapist.
Friends are chosen carefully, and children treated fairly. The position does not stand for cruelty towards the weak and unprotected, in fact people become involved with causes in their community and worldwide. Spontaneity is valued where all are allowed to express themselves honestly and openly, even if there is no agreement.
This Moon position opposes emotional suppression in any way. As a free spirit in emotional expression, America contends with revealing problems and allowing others to take it or leave it. Somehow the emotional well being is caught up in desiring to look perfect, yet in another way the position promotes people to express themselves and their ideals freely.

Mercury 24 28 Cancer, ruler of the 1st and 5th houses in the 3rd house.

Mercury has an horary value of +4, showing communications are about getting organized, being an honest achiever of material success. This placement is about making money through personal efforts, gaining through the support of friends and neighbours, making money through own efforts.
Also benefits come through artistic expression [film, pop music, etc.] the voice, makes profits through sales, marketing and advertising. Efforts are focussed on children, speculation, adventure; benefits come from writing, music, entertainment and sport.
There is also the communication of knowledge of spiritual practices. [Kryon channellings and others] Remember Mercury is the most important planet in America's chart through numerology representing both the life path trod and the interaction with others. This position is about making communications most prolific in entertaining and part of the national identity.
This position of Mercury is seized by adventurous impulses again and again. Not wanting the humdrum of daily living, or a mundane existence, America's Mercury always finds itself on a crusade, a communications crusade. From this position Mercury has highly developed mental powers, and Americans in general will see themselves as logical people who see the power of mind over matter.
What is said and done though may be two different things. The communications when looked at on paper is based in logic, but when spoken it is the language of emotion that comes across; then when wishing to convince others of the sound practical sense of an idea, the mode of communication can resemble a sermon. Mercury in this position is highly emotional, and internal conflicts can arise between the emotional and reasoning natures.
Stopping the flow of either just produces frustration and an odd behaviour. It’s rather like experiencing a kettle continuously on the boil. Mercury has a great fantasy life from this position, hence the amount of literature and books and films where fantasy can be expressed.
There is a desire for some amazing communication or literature, or song to sweep people off their feet. Mercury loves romance, and America's loves have no barriers, no matter how hopeless the love, it still is romanced. The communications of America take on a faithful, passionate and nurturing theme, but others of a freedom loving nature might feel it as being moralizing.

Venus 2 21 Cancer, ruler of the 6th and intercepted 12th in the 2nd house.

Venus parallel Alcyone in the Pleiades; immoral, strong passions, disgrace through women, sickness, loss of fortune. (Robson) With enlightenment, the meaning changes, i.e. money is given, women are empowered through appreciation, etc. Venus has an horary value of +3, which is about spreading joy.
Wealth is made through serving and giving healing speeches. Money comes through medical, legal, and defence related activities. Perseverance and hard work earns money. Money is spent on freedom for others, like donating to feed the hungry, and being kind to those in need; America gives money to those in foreign lands and to foreigners who need help.
America supported the IRA for years, gave to the tsunami survivors, etc. I now understand how the "millionaire preachers" came into being by doing healings. The travelling praising God shows are unique to America. This position of Venus desires the recipient in relationship to be totally appreciative of America’s charms.
On a personal level each partner in relationship wishes to feel appreciated by their mate. America hopes to mesmerise other cultures; this position of enchantment makes Americans very much a part of society that creates a certain lifestyle. American people love the social benefits of being a couple.
Legislation, marriage and state approval means little although religion would have a big say. America is a religious country. America loves being in a couple. Americans are enchanted with art, music, and literature; the ever changing themes attract and shape them.
The arts are important to the American people, fascination of a character from a book or movie can lead to hero worship. Americans love to share their wild and wacky theories about love and sex, and quite possibly the word therapy was invented by the American people.

Mars 20 57 Gemini, ruler of the 12th house in the 1st house

Mars conjunct Alcyone in the Pleiades; many accidents to the head, loss and suffering through fires. (Robson) Enlightenment changes the interpretation to spiritual understanding. This shows that America will have a high spiritual content; [it was designed by the Masons] it is to be charitable, interested in healing, education and working for activities that benefit the world at large;
to be generous, broad minded, gains for the self while helping others to gain. [creating a win-win situation] Mars has great courage from this position, wishing to push beyond the boundaries imposed by society or nature. There is a great will to overcome any limitations, which may give America the appearance of being aggressive.
Americans wish to know their subject well; achieve technical mastery of it. America's Mars is most grounded, devoting itself to one discipline [despite being in Gemini] to which all the energy is focussed. In this one area Mars shows itself to be intense and highly competitive. America will not give in, back down or stop a struggle for any reason.
America likes to be at the helm in issues, but can play as part of a team, when importance of individual effort and subjugation of ego is for the common good of all. The negative effects of this position are in arousing jealousy and enmity, or displaying arrogance.

Jupiter 5 48 Cancer, ruler of the 7th house in the 2nd house.

Jupiter conjunct Alhena; social advancement and success, philosophical mind, love of ostentation. (Robson) Jupiter parallel Alcyone; deceit, hypocrisy, legal and ecclesiastical troubles, loss through relatives, banishment or imprisonment. (Robson) This means that before enlightenment everyone is libelling everyone else, as a means of earning an income.
Money is gained through partnerships and skills in business dealings. Business is related to handling food and speeches. [pop music, radio, talk shows, TV, etc.] America makes money by showing others how to be successful. This position is related to being a tower of strength and reliability to other countries.
America creates a haven of security for others in an otherwise harsh world, protecting them, and shielding them from experiences that might harm but also educate them. America’s practical knowledge is great, but not always applied with understanding when dealing with other cultures having different natures.
America wants to do things their way; as a consequence other nations find their own initiatives blunted; this is possibly why allies back away, as it’s not good for their own countrie's growth. America is adept at making money, and the people enjoy spending it as much; expenditures may exceed their earnings. [America may borrow heavily]
America tends not to save money, but invests it so as to release energy. America is not easily intimidated and will not back down from a challenge. But one downfall of America is that she manifests all kinds of anxieties and irrational neurotic behaviour over seemingly non-threatening conditions.
The strengths in relations with other countries lie in America's courageous and protective stand, but it’s likely that partnerships break down through phobic and smothering tendencies.

Saturn 14 47 Libra, ruler of the 8th and 9th houses in the 5th house

Gains are made by hidden knowledge, like researching speculative activities, like the stock market, benefits from lotteries, insurance settlements; benefits also come from studying the scriptures. America has high spiritual inclinations, knows spiritual techniques, philosophical knowledge. [Possibly relates to the American Indians at this time]
Saturn is important as it represents the third ray energy of the soul. The position of Saturn is quite surprising as it aligns itself with defiance. America is totally involved and convinced in her own belief system, which may be in direct conflict with the rest of the world. America wants to change the rest of the world for the better, and will seek to attain a position that allows her to do this; she acquires power to further her social ideals.
America casts piercingly critical and insightful views over others, and not one to mince her words, she says her piece. America has a good insight to the workings of the human mind and is able to size up individuals; she doesn’t legitimize her behaviour, but simply goes ahead and acts as she sees appropriate.
Needless to say this upsets others, but then America is very strong minded. America’s principles and politics are always in the process of evolution, where loyalty, leadership and co-operation are pressing concerns.
Because of the changing nature of America, moral and amoral behaviour may be tangled and a firm idea of what is right or wrong not firmly established. It is America’s fate to be thrown again and again with others in society.

Uranus 8 53 Gemini, ruler of the 10th house in the first house and rising

Uranus parallel zosma; it causes benefit by disgrace, selfishness, egotism, immorality, meanness, melancholy, unhappiness of mind and fear of poison, and gives an unreasonable, shameless and egotistical nature. (Robson) Possibly not the best star to have with the rising planet.
Independence is the main feature; "freedom and independence" are the energies of the chart. Americans like to work for themselves, as an entrepreneur, on big projects and undertaking challenging tasks, having strong personalities; America is persistent in getting what America wants.
Just like a youth, America will have selfish tendencies until it gains enlightenment with the "New Jerusalem" energy. [human consciousness] Uranus’ position draws America into dramatic situations and happenings; she is unlikely to shrink from the struggle or submit to injustice.
The position also gives revelation, tradition and the exchange of ideas. America is committed to bettering the lives of other countries; Uranus shows America to be altruistic alongside her own interests. The position is one of giving and receiving, an energy exchange in effect. Uranus has combative tendencies, where any aggression felt by America is reflected back onto America itself.
Uranus is seen as the defender of the faith and the preservers of tradition, which is constantly changing. America likes an audience, otherwise she feels frustrated. America is dominated by verbal and mental powers that must be expressed. Uranus’ position in America's chart shows a committed, protective and expressive energy.

Neptune 22 25 Virgo, ruler of 11th house in the 5th house

This is about speculative opportunities, gaining success as an intermediary; a broker, investor, gambler and teacher. In another form it is about knowing scriptures. This position is about being highly concerned with society; America is both defender and critic of her country at the time; her aim is to better the human condition, to open people's eyes to the truth and serve them.
She is not shy about making concrete suggestions, or showing room for improvement, however she can be didactic and closed to the viewpoints of others. America is critical of everyday life, as performance really counts. Efficiency and an aversion to chaos and sloppiness compels America to tidy up. Schedules, plans and punctuality shape Neptune’s position. America has opinions on every subject.

Pluto 27 34 Capricorn, retrograde, ruler of intercepted 6th in the 9th house

The intercepted sign indicates it's something given to others, and not personally an attribute for the self; it's about being part of a spiritual organization and institution of higher learning for others. Lawyers working for another’s cause, jobs through giving service to others, providing medical, legal and military and defence for aid in other countries.
This position shows a spiritual heavyweight, with a very clear goal, a firm idea on what America wishes to accomplish at any one time. America's Pluto knows what makes a human, "human"; she understands what impels people into action and knows just how to respond in any given situation. She also understands that it is the person who exercises self discipline, who succeeds in life.
America has a very commanding presence, with a well defined purpose, that others may feel intimidated by her. She appears to be without inhibition, and is a firm supporter of the rights of others.

North node 6 35 Leo in 3rd house

North node parallel diadem; it is said to give a suave and well-bred manner, with great personal charm, but to lead to an idle and dissipated life. There is some love of, or, ability for the stage. (Robson) This position is what America leaves to the world, rather like an obituary, or writings that go down in history.
The ability to make observations about other cultures and nationalities and size up other nationalitie's potentials, morals and accomplishments, giving impressive and accurate predictions about their progress in the political, military and foreign forces. America’s blind spot is concerning her own thinking towards her own country, as her allegiance and patriotism clouds her own objectivity.
America will be seen as an excellent arbiter in disputes, understanding the cultural representatives and negotiators. Aldebaren conjunct Ascendant; those born at this time take no pleasure in tranquillity and set no store by a life of inaction; rather they yearn for crowds and mobs and civil disorders. (Manilus, book 5 of Astronomica, 1st century AD)
Most of America’s planets are in the first quadrant, showing that America is primarily focussed on self development. As the charts unfolded and I interpreted them, I wondered to myself just how much the old Masons who designed the American charts really understood the two potentials of the chart. Were they only aware of designing a wealthy powerful nation? Or did they know the spiritual potential?
I wonder did they see the potential female leadership of the country, as the statue of liberty is of a female with a torch; [signifying female enlightenment] perhaps they did? Did they know the female energy of the stars empowered the African nations? Did they see the movement of people to America? How the Africans were cherry picked and shipped to America to become the future enlightened leaders in the guise of slaves?
America's enlightenment can be seen through the Comet "Chiron", the comet of enlightenment. Chiron’s placement in a chart shows what brings that enlightenment, and as you can imagine it is to do with the polarity of the African and European descendents in America and their abilities to integrate. Enlightenment comes with integration.

Chiron in the American chart 20 07 Aries in the 11th house

This position is about taking an extreme view in society, a view that is way in excess of acceptable social trends in society. The view is to the extreme; there is no compromise, no restriction or changing it. Not only is it a position of outspoken and harsh views, but this position is also about putting into practice what is said.
This position is about extreme prejudice that is made into physical violence. This position has a genius for putting fanciful ideas into action, with the thought that it is for the betterment of society. Often someone earns a good living from this prejudice and violence. People holding these extreme views gather a following who in turn adopt even stronger and biased views.
This position is about people wanting to change the thoughts of others by way of example, by using a strong amoral unprincipled and selfish behaviour. As I wrote a picture of the Klu Klux Klan came to mind; the extreme perversion of this position taking form, racism in its ultimate expression. The sabian symbol for 21 degrees Aries is "A boxer is entering the ring".
This gives the impression of someone taking on an issue, with the need to show or prove themselves strong; a person prepared to throw punches on every level of consciousness, physically, spiritually and emotionally. It shows personal assertion and a fight for space.
Chiron in the 11th house is to do with associations, mainly friends of the nation, those with a special relationship, such as UK, Canada, or those countries under adoption and treaty; altruism, clubs, contacts, friends, hopes and wishes, humanitarian enterprises, organizations, political activities, social groups, spiritual visions and aspirations.

The more I look at Chiron, I see Chiron as the symbol of the African American people, and their destiny as enlightened leaders of America. Aries indicates feeling a sense being violated in some way and as a result may fear assertion. Over-compensation is often shown by attempting to be the first at everything.
Physically they may suffer head wounds. But ultimately a pioneer in service to humanity, which is America’s higher spiritual cause. Juno is opposite Chiron; Juno concerns itself with people’s rights within relationship, as well as a question of "rights", it concerns itself with fairness and compromise, and how fairness is enforced; there is jealousy and fear and abandonment, concerns of infidelity and concerns of fair trade.
To me the Juno opposition throws light on the issues of the multi-cultural society, position, policing, jealousy and feelings of abandonment. England is also a multicultural society, but the feeling is quite different; issues are quite incomparable, cultures do not feel hurt by another’s.
Chiron is on the midpoint of Moon/Mars = Mercury/Saturn = CH = Sun/Pluto = Moon/Neptune. Intense emotion, deep thought, people striving to rule others, imagined perception. It appears that a subconscious feeling of being enslaved still runs through the nation; how can this subconscious burden be changed?
The multicultural society is America's Chironic experience to solve. There are a number of aspects, which I think relate to these American people; Chiron sextile Moon; owning nurturing skills and a genuine love of "the people"; Chiron square Mercury; being told lies, tricked, when actually having great oral and communication gifts themselves. [particularly music!]
Chiron quintile Venus; always feeling inferior, feeling poor, trying to keep up with the Jones’, many friends, but still feel socially unacceptable. But actually possessing natural beauty and many friends. Chiron sextile Mars; feeling great strength over suppression.
Chiron opposite Saturn; wounded through authority, being controlled, not respected, believing everything is their responsibility, believing they were not good enough;
in actual fact being held in great esteem as an authority and respected for who they are. Chiron quincunx Neptune; seeing the source of the pain, being deceived by others, sensitive to other's wounds, the imagination works overtime creating worries, great imagination. Chiron semi-square Ascendant; feeling they do not have a right to be here. It would be interesting at this point, to look at the spiritual goal of America.

Morya is 26 degrees 57 Leo, and contraparallel the Vertex.

Indicating a fateful position, or part of the programming. The secret of enlightenment. This position is about startling surprises, and secrets being kept hidden and then revealed. Or about something that was concealed being revealed. Secrets are kept which are to other's advantages; it’s about knowledge of the times, and the surprise which opens up a whole new world of interest for others to enjoy.
This position values the truth highly, and when the truth is revealed, often people are not ready to hear or handle it. Perhaps this is why it is kept hidden for so long. The sabian symbol for 27 degrees Leo is "Daybreak, the luminescence of dawn in the Eastern sky". A symbol of renewal and hope, gradual realizations of opportunities, new cycles of beginning, leaving the past behind, dawning awareness.
The midpoints are Venus/Chiron = Uranus/MC = Mars/Vertex = Moon /Ascendant = SU + Jupiter/Chiron. From feeling socially unacceptable, through the power of self assertion, a fated man, holding a personal relationship to other people, becomes the leading personality [the president], successful breakthrough/ enlightenment.
I believe the spiritual surprise is for a certain person to rise through his own efforts and genuine policies to be president. America is to be seat of the "New Jerusalem", the human consciousness of peace. Enlightenment comes through the struggle to leadership by the African American people.
