Illusion is a cosmic constant, not something that we can evaluate as good or bad. Self-delusion, on the other hand, causes major problems. Neptune is an emotional planet, resistant to reason. Its placement in the US natal chart exacerbates this tendency, making us prone to fantastical extremes. The Tea Party movement—if “movement” is the right word—is a testament to what misapplied Neptune (mobs, enthrallment) can do when fueled by Chironic wounds.
Propaganda
The tea-baggers began to take on steam just as Neptune came into orb of the US Moon in March 2009. In addition, as Scott Wolfram has pointed out, the transiting Moon will be on top of the country’s natal Neptune during the elections this month: a remarkable double whammy that will make the lessons of this pairing hard to miss.
The Left has been trying to get the word out for a while now about the real power behind the teabag juggernaut. But it was only a couple of months ago that Jane Meyer’s article in The New Yorker (8/30 issue) expanded in detail the role played by the Koch Brothers, a quiet pair of ex-John Birchers who have poured hundreds of millions of dollars into tea bag actions. It was these guys who brought in the requisite marketing and strategic savvy to slickly professionalize the tea-baggers, all the while packaging them as a homespun grassroots phenomenon. Then Fox News was brought on board to sell it.
