Bailouts and Politics

Well the financial bailout has passed the house and you would think that everyone would be breathing a sigh of relief. But do not revert back into you past patterns just yet. Things are still not as secure as you may want to believe.

Astrological patterns take much longer to unwind and we are in a pattern that will last for 6 months for sure. The tendency is for it to take all the way to the end of 2010. So take steps to protect your assets and do not over extend.

Don't take more risk by adding any huge credit card debt. Do not make it a spendy holiday season. This is the time to conserve and rejoice in the simple pleasures. We cannot keep up the past pattern that our country has been doing. None of us can. We are all responsible for co-creating this reality and now we can uncreate it. Your voice saying "No!" to the huge spending in Washington DC is a good start. We need to figure out how to bring money, business, and balance back into this country.

But this begins at home.

We all have ways of bringing balance back into our life. Take lunches to work. Cook more at home. Play games with family rather than go to the movies and out shopping. I know that all of you are worrying about this but it does not need to be a problem. We have done this before. It was not a problem then and it can be fun once again. Look at this as a way to connect to our friends and family in more sincere and honest ways. We all need more depth and connection. This is an opportunity to do that.

Last night the Vice Presidential Debate was on. It was very interesting to see. I was impressed with both sides. It was not a dog-eat-dog event. Yea! It was civil and challenging all at the same time.

The process of Sarah Palin speaking was a wonderful new reflection for women to be seen in a different light, politically. She is the new model of American Political women. She did a good job in being a woman and being a politician at the same time. That is something that has been difficult for any woman to do. Hilary has tried to do it but she came across as too tough and part of the "Old Boys Club". But she was a huge help in the generation that broke the ice for the Palins to come into the mix. Women are looking for a positive reflection of themselves in this changing time. This was a step in the right direction. There were moments that were not perfect but all women could appreciate the huge effort and shift that she represents.

Joe Biden was respectful of her and yet intelligent and well spoken. It is also a difficult position to hold in politically dealing with a woman during a debate.

Both candidates were to be commended. This showed politics in a better light with more real issues being addressed than all the negative ad campaigns of the last bit. I hope this is a trend that continues.

It should be an interesting race regardless. Remember to register to vote. Your financial security and the changing direction of our country are in the hands of the people.
