A Pluto in Sagittarius Truth?

Even while preparing himself for a recent visit at Cherry Creek Shopping Center, Santa finds the time and joy in posing for a photo in the men's room.
I had to share with you this fascinating picture that appeared in today's paper. The first thing that struck me, of course, was the excretory device and then the photographer, who looked like he was shooting Santa. What amazes me is that it was published on Christmas day. It's in a shopping center too, the modern day church, with its gleaming marble. An entire half page. I can't figure out why they featured the urinal when it could have been so easily cropped. Bathroom humor, I suppose. Pluto laughs too, even on the holiest day. Very very interesting. Truth is everywhere and anywhere. It's all mixed up.

Who knew pluto had so much humor.

First thing that popped in my head was wot's this another political expose?

You're right the urinal could have been easily cropped so had to be intentional. Wonder who was running the shop today. (while the editor was away?)

I am stunned by this. You'd have to see how it was featured to get the full impact. I'm going to watch the letters to the editor to see if the people react.

I really do get the message that they feel a little duped by history and tradition. Shopping was way down this year.

Icons. They couldn't feature Jesus next to a urinal so this was 2nd best. Jesus stays anyway as long as his birth in the Middle east is accompanied by peace. They've been yakking about that for 2000 years.

The Sun, Mercury, and Jupiter were conjunct in Capricorn this year trine Saturn in Virgo. Not too froufrou. Virgo is ritual so maybe the collective is going to do something about it during these Saturn years with the NN in Aquarius. One thing I'd like to ssee is a paring down of the disgusting presidential inaugurational rituals. If Edwards gets in that will happen.

what a point, on the other hand this recent version of "Santa Clause" was a gift of corporation: Coca Cola rumored to be a CIA front (not that i know anything) around the last depression. Maybe there IS more to this photo....

Hmmmm. That's worth looking into. Uranus in Aries during the depression, then the years of Santa Clausian abundance. This is getting more interesting. I know there is something to this picture.

Very interesting. Pluto in Cancer and the idea of a father figure with a bottomless bag of commodities.

The shopping center was a turnaround in the style of the city when it was built. Very expensive to build, high-end retailers, and the marble rest rooms were especially lauded. The area now has gone insane with the new new rich and something is about to pop.
