Whole Foods Boycott: Saturn in Virgo's Last Days

Have we learned our lessons under the tutelage of Big Daddy Saturn in the constellation of Virgo? Only time will tell. If we can pass quality, equitable health care legislation, the answer may be a resounding yes. But it's not looking very promising, especially when those we thought were on the right side of the argument are turning out to be enemies to the cause. The current boycott of Whole Foods, a supposed bastion of progressive thinking in the age of Food, Inc, is interesting to watch as the last days of Saturn in Virgo unfold. Whole Foods is often the only game in town when you want to find clean, pure food in a sea of processed garbage. But the CEO of Whole Foods recent Wall Street Journal op-ed shows that his real motivation is closing in on the niche that is owned by eco-moms and others that can afford to buy their organic produce. The truth is that poor people need access to healthy food as much as they need access to affordable health care. Until those at the top of the wealth pyramid recognize that every human being deserves equity on planet earth, Big Daddy Saturn will smite us. If not now, do we have to wait another thirty years to get it right? Selfishness is a pre-existing condition, but hopefully it's one that we can cure with enough commitment.
