the year of inconsequence

Last winter we predicted that George Bush's Saturn Return would come back to haunt him right around campaign time. It's safe to say that the time has come.

Bush's second Saturn Return is exact on October 1st, 2004. In 1972, when Bush the Younger busied himself avoiding military service and partying around Alabama, his first Saturn Return was about to ensue. During the months when he was MIA, Bush perfectly embodied the nature of his Saturn in the 12th house of secrets, lies, and subterfuge. Will his bad karma end his stay in the White House? Only Saturn knows.
