All we see and hear is violence and wall-to-wall propaganda that white people must be evicted from society, surrender their homes and businesses, and live as slaves, due entirely to their race.

Whites are being called subhumans.

This is an expression of Saturn-Pluto. The demonizing and scapegoating of in this instance white people.

Mars is in my 11th house

The apartment manager told my neighbor it was me.
It killed me to complain again. She really had no idea it was me until the manager ratted me out. I told her I would broom tap or text next time.
She said she didn't know she was being that loud. But really that is beside the point that young children need to have A BEDTIME.

Trump admitted to Woodward on March 19 that he deliberately minimized the danger. “I wanted to always play it down,” the president said. “I still like playing it down, because I don’t want to create a panic.”

This is the information war we are in the middle of.

These fires breaking out simultaneously on the entire West coast are unprecedented. What's posted here is a current event that I think is a correlation of Mars in Aries square Saturn, absent more information about who the people are committing arson.

It's also not surprising to me that these archetypes Mars-Saturn-Pluto have manifested here on this thread.

The vast majority of people encounter the experiences that correspond to these planets involuntarily, rather than intentionally seeking them out. Intentionally, for example, would be doing psychedelics or breathwork.

At the beginning of the current Saturn-Pluto conjunction in 2018, my town burned to the ground. 85 people died. My life changed forever and I learned something important: I learned first hand the awesome power of fire, which I think of as a manifestation of Siva, the Destroyer in Hindu mythology. In other words, the experience was archetypal. Face to face with Saturn-Pluto. I could not separate myself from everyone else who went through the same experience. In a way, what happened to "others," happened to me as well. In reality, there is no radical separation between self and "others." As the Indian sage Sri Ramana Maharshi said: "there are no others."

So, during Saturn-Pluto periods, we are ground down to our bare essence, like Ananna's descent into the Underworld. It is both terrifying and profound.

But there were concrete, "real" world blessings that came out of the experience. I moved from California and found a wonderful new home, better than the one I had before. And, a couple of issues beyond my control were removed because of the fire.

So, even the worst things that happen to us can lead to our awakening and enlightenment.

300+ campers ensnared by fire. CAL FIRE tells them no hope of extraction, prepare to jump in the lake to survive.

Army pilots say they can help. CAL FIRE says too dangerous. Crews go anyway. 0 vis in smoke filled canyons. Overload helos w/ppl. Then they go back. Twice.

Giving & Receiving in the Environment: This method of Giving & Receiving focuses upon the atmosphere of one’s own consciousness and one’s immediate environment. As we are all aware, our moods and state of mind have a very powerful influence upon us. The ordinary person is essentially bound by whatever moods and mental states arise. According to our mood and state of mind we influence our environment and, in that we are part of the environment of other beings, our moods and mental states influence others. Thus, transforming our own moods and mental states, and uplifting our own consciousness, liberates us from the downward pull of negativity and helps uplift others in our environment as well.

Sit with your mind, heart and body, and let yourself tune in to how the body feels, your mood, thoughts and emotions – the general atmosphere of your consciousness. Envision the Spiritual Sun in your heart and shift your focus to this Light-Center. If you feel uneasy, or notice any form of tension or stress, or any negativity or darkness however subtle it might be, imagine that your breath is linked to the Spiritual Sun and that your breath becomes Light. When you inhale, breathe in whatever darkness or negativity is present and breathe out Light into your body-mind. Envision the negativity and darkness instantly transforming into Light by the Spiritual Sun in the center of your being. Breathing out, envision your whole body-mind becoming filled with Light. It is as though your whole body and consciousness-being becomes the Light-Presence of the Spiritual Sun in the material dimension. When your body and consciousness-being have become the Spiritual Sun, envision the Light extending into your immediate environment, shining upon everything around you and transforming the environment into Light. Envision the environment as though it is a Palace of Light and yourself as the Light-Presence in the center of it. Once you have transformed yourself into the Light-Presence and your immediate environment into an Abode of Light, you can conclude the meditation with a prayer to extend the Light.... Alternatively you could abide envisioning the whole world, and everyone and everything in it, transformed into a Great Palace of Light, and then close the practice with prayer....

...Mars in retrograde is so important. It is a vital time for review and recalibration of the pressure gauge. That doesn't mean things will be easy. Navigating backwards can be tricky, but it's not impossible. We're simply being encouraged to take our time figuring things out and considering new ways of acting.

Mars moving forwards is the planet of action and dynamism. But when it is retrograde its personality switches to play out more internally; from Hollywood action-hero to reflective philosopher may seem like a radical adjustment! But both types have something in common: determination and focus. They simply apply it in different ways.

snip

The Voice Inside

Mars retrograde offers a reflective period to help us see personal development as equally important, if not more, than any external validation gained from the satisfaction of desire. That doesn't mean we should be giving up goals. And neither does it foretell any pressure becoming so great that it rules us out of getting what we want.
But it does ask us to listen to the voice inside that drives us on and question what deeper desires it yearns for. We'll get answers that push us into addressing our mis-steps; answers that point us where we need to concentrate our energies to achieve fulfilment.

snip

By embracing the retrograde scenic route we also give ourselves a chance to enjoy the fruits of past labours. If we just keep pushing forward without any introspection, we would soon run out of steam. Our bodies need fuel and our brains need sleep; but our psyche needs an opportunity to relax and recharge. Mars retrograde shows us the importance of setting the right pace. Pausing for reflection is not a failure; it's a pathway to success and happiness.

There is no avoiding the fact that some people will find Mars retrograde frustrating. The secret is to see it as a moment of individual growth. Recognize that drive, assertion and aggression have their place but it will be more useful to develop other tools in our kitbag. It's not a time to bottle up feelings or fall into resentful apathy. Rather it's a time to mature and learn that satisfaction delayed can be much sweeter than instant gratification.

....and a Cosmic Gift

It is crucial to view Mars retrograde positively, and not to think of it as being side-tracked. It's a golden opportunity to rethink, correct course or fix an engine that has been misfiring. The cosmos cares for us, and this is its gift. We are simply, and gently, being urged to pause and understand how to channel our energy more effectively. Lessons learnt during this period will sustain us for the rest of our lives.

"False Rumors That Activists Set Wildfires Exasperate Officials

Law enforcement agencies said claims on social media that antifascist activists had set fires on the West Coast were unfounded."

Another one for Mars retro.

I'm a member of another site, that has nothing to do with astrology. I've spent more time there, discussing politics and everyday life, because they seemed to be a balanced site, and they are - only conservatives slowly disappeared over the past month. When I spoke to one in PM - a guy I've known for eight years - he said that their links and some of their posts were being deleted, so they'd started posting in a new place. They're referring to it as a liberal echo chamber, because misinformation is deleted. Of course, they don't think it's misinformation.

I live in a major city that's seen consistent demonstrations since the beginning, and actual riots only occurred over the course of one weekend. Fox News wants you to believe the entire country is experiencing apocalyptic damage but a couple busted store windows does not a disaster make.
