The Joy Ride
Well, the south node of the moony moon has been in Sagittarius for the last year and a half.and what a trip it's been. A roller coaster ride to beat all. Unfortunately the south node often brings out the negative aspects of a sign and this ride has been no different.
Some of the less than pleasurable Sagittarius events are worship of false idols, forcing of dogma on others, hypocrisy, holier-than-thou closed minded attitudes, desecration of noble standards, and complete evasion of the truth. Sagittarius still works within a hierarchy and the rulers, experts, and supposed priests of the day have fallen from grace.
On the other side, the north node in Gemini has been doing the opposite. People's podcasts have gained more influence, providing many new often open minded sources of information. Highways and bi-ways are routing through the collective mind non-stop, free from traditional controls. A motley crew of people from all echelons have found their voices and audiences.
The auspicious north node, the long Pluto opposition to US Mercury, and the Neptune square to US Mars in Gemini have all coordinated to open these expanded mental avenues. Something new is coming, and that is an inventive free speech platform just about to take the stage.
The platform was started by Republicans but I doubt it will stay that way. Liberals have been visiting conservative sites lately where they are finding common ground. They agree that the less than pious priesthood of Sagittarius needs correction. Bridges are coming, and that is the original aim of Sagittarius. The pontiffs symbolize the bridge (pont) to the higher mind and the divine cosmology.
It seems that the south node inspired Sagittarius joy ride is coming to an end since the nodes are changing signs. Thank heaven for that. And thank heaven for the incredible number of communication platforms now available to satisfy the buzzing eager American mind.

Ain't that the truth!
I'm looking forward to the new social networks continuing to break the censorship.
Facebook has always seemed horribly vain to me.
Instagram, I actually love a few sites, picture stories have always been my faves.
Now, something coming looks more mature perhaps venues with real news stories will shine their lights.
Like you, I've been glad for podcasts, and discussions.
Today a friend came for a visit and dropped of her doctoral dissertation and asked to read mine. We sat with tea and read. She was murmuring to herself, looked up, “it's so dense!”
Well decades ago different standards prevailed.
It struck us both how much those standards have changed.
The communication network is In its infancy so maturity comes later. It's toddling around now. I hope it doesn't grow up too fast. It's good the way it is.
One thing it's developing is a new hand-eye coordination as people are poking around with pointed precision. The sense of touch is affected which translates to thought. Evolution will reveal the effect in time.
Way back people used lots of force to press typewriter keys and now it's light, delicate, and very very responsive. It's a different kind of power and control. And quiet.
Human fingertips are quite the invention. I guess at the moment they are really active keeping people's grip on their minds. The almost noiseless tip tap.
One good thing about podcasts is the freedom to spend time in lengthy interviews. Attention span grows again, people get to know one another, and ideas get developed. The equal exchange is good rather than being lectured from a podium. People are placed at the same level.
It doesn't matter about the bad media outlets. They stay. People develop their own side by side. There's room for it all. People choose.
Some like to reform existing institutions and others part ways and start from scratch. It all goes together.
Reform is inevitable in Aquarius but not all reforms will work. Getting together and figuring it out should be the interesting part. People's desires are all over the proverbial map, the root problem with togetherness.
So that's the problem with Aquarius, the networks, and group belonging. People have to join to see other people's stuff. They end up joining everything everywhere to stave off isolation. Aquarius teaches people how to accept some isolation and refrain from jumping to join thoughtlessly. People ask themselves if they really need a particular connection. They often don't. That frees up space, time, and thought, which Aquarius loves.
Others' stuff can be a great springboard, of course. But uncontrolled belonging is not. Solo hobbies are fantastic!
Fortunately, I think cyberspace groupism doesn't run that deep and possibly can be adjusted easily. The ever responsive x button!! Or the rolling mouse! And the everlovin' back button! We've got it all.
