Caroline welcomes Sara Wolcott and Kristine Hill for Honoring Halloween.
America’s spooky Pluto return, retrieving “The cosmo-vision that America’s founding fathers either never understood or purposefully ignored…We are descendants of the men who sat together; the founding fathers of the United States and the members of the Haudenosaunee Confederacy. (and Caroline, descendant of Thomas Dudley, 2nd Governor of Mass, who kicked Roger Williams out, ’cause he wanted to cooperate with Native Americans.)
Essential stories/myths about living within the Haudenosaunee cosmovision and the Kayanerenko:wa, the Great Law of Peace.

2 pm pt- reading of names of since last HalloweenBeloved Dead
Here be one to honor, with so many worthy allies who have gone back-stage…
Mike Davis departed on the eclipse:
“Stop and give a hitchhiking family a ride,” he advised in in his 2012 book Be Realistic: Demand the Impossible. “Never cross a picket line, even when your family can’t pay the rent. Share your last cigarette with a stranger…Listen carefully to the quiet, profound people who have lost everything but their dignity. Cultivate the generosity of the ‘we.’ ”
and to honor Beloved KPFA ally Bob Baldock, who departed, elegantly, on the New Moon eclipse, whose image was “Happy House-raising party.” encouraging community participation,
which he did, organizing so many KPFA events…and hands the baton to us…
Jodie Evans posted a great homage: “Presente! Mike Davis: an ancient Irish prophet disguised as a truck driving academic clairvoyant, a North Star of integrity, righteousness, and fearlessness. The greatest LA non-fiction writer ever — an omniscient who saw doom everywhere but refused to give up hope or quit fighting.
“What keeps us going…is our love for each other, and our refusal to bow our heads, to accept the verdict, however all-powerful it seems. It’s what ordinary people have to do. You have to love each other. You have to defend each other. You have to fight.”
~ Mike Davis
Sean Padraic O”Donoghue says, “Let us see the long ago dead, emerging from the shadow lands to greet the recently dead, guide them to the Milky way,
but not before
we invite them to help us all out…. here now….”
And this is a great profound riff around death, always pertinent, but especially resonant now:

Quintiles (72 degree angle, division of circle by 5) abounding in chart today (Mars quintile saturn, Mars quintile Chiron)
– opportunity to call in the desirable….
The Brazilian election has much to animate… The Moon quintile Neptune and Mercury… to invite in the unifying vision…
And! it has a Thior’s Hammer , Mars square Neptune and Jupiter (moving back into Pisces tonight! All the guiding metaphors be available ) and both sesquiquadrate Venus in Scorpio, at the degree of rooting out corruption…
Sara has Sun quintile Pluto and Mercury Quintile Chiron, call in the deep, and the lineage of Mentors (not just humans)
and Krissy has Venus quintile Neptune, calling in all the guiding mythologies into human society….
