A partial solar eclipse will occur on November 25, 2011 at 2°37′ Sagittarius. This will be the last of four partial solar eclipses in 2011; the others occurred on January 4, June 1, and July 1, 2011. With the North Node of the Moon, the Head of the Dragon, moving through the middle degrees of Sagittarius, we are now reaching the culmination of a period where the Sagittarius archetype is being torn open, erupting its dark shadow contents and forcing the entire world to see them.

Oligarchy, American Style by PAUL KRUGMAN - Link
Inequality is back in the news, largely thanks to Occupy Wall Street, but with an assist from the Congressional Budget Office. And you know what that means: It’s time to roll out the obfuscators!
Anyone who has tracked this issue over time knows what I mean. Whenever growing income disparities threaten to come into focus, a reliable set of defenders tries to bring back the blur. Think tanks put out reports claiming that inequality isn’t really rising, or that it doesn’t matter. Pundits try to put a more benign face on the phenomenon, claiming that it’s not really the wealthy few versus the rest, it’s the educated versus the less educated.
So what you need to know is that all of these claims are basically attempts to obscure the stark reality: We have a society in which money is increasingly concentrated in the hands of a few people, and in which that concentration of income and wealth threatens to make us a democracy in name only.

Given the global nature of the modern economy, the rest of the world is dreading the destructive winds and high waves of this potential tsunami, hoping it can be pushed out to sea before it wreaks real havoc. Thus, it seems useful to have a look at Germany’s chart (Reunification 1990), 
as well as the chart of German Chancellor Angela Merkel, probably the most powerful leader in Europe at present. The most significant aspect currently in the German chart is the long-running station of Uranus opposite natal Venus (1Libra48), essentially covering September 2011 through early February 2012.

There is an ongoing theft taking place in global finance on such a scale that is threatening the concept of democracy itself, and Goldman Sachs has their fingerprints all over the crime scene.
Most Wall Street companies are usually content to pump-and-dump a stock on the public. Goldman Sachs does it with nations. Goldman Sachs doesn't need traditional clients anymore their only real "client" is the treasury department of countries.
Goldman Sachs makes money selling a nation's overpriced debt and by betting against the nation. The normal scenario usually involves helping a nation hide a problem and sell its debt until the problem blows up into a bubble that bursts in a spectacular way. Along the way they buy-own-sell the lawmakers, regulators and rule-makers.
There is nothing unusual about a company having too much power over local governments. It leads to a lot of abuse but it can be dealt with. Having too much power over a federal government is a whole different thing.
Having too much power over multiple major governments of the world is unprecedented. The only comparisons are the East Indies Companies, and that historical lesson involved man-made famines that killed tens of millions in order to enrich stockholders.
