DECLINE- The Fall of America?

by Bill Hansen

The star Aculeus in the constellation of Ophiuchus lies close to the galactic center (2650 50’ celestial longitude 80 51’ south latitude) and, thus, can be used as a convenient way to measure the movement of the stars and other cosmic points against the precession of the equinox over long periods of time. Aculeus is also of interest because its meaning is linked to the Pluto and galactic center conjunction.

The first Europeans to briefly set foot on the North American continent were the Vikings under Leif Ericson in the year 1000. The Vikings did not, however, change the continent as did later expeditions beginning with Christopher Columbus in 1492. In fact, there is no satisfactory proof of any transatlantic crossing between 1015 and 1492. Numerous excursions to America, around Cape Horn of South American and all the way up Western America, and around Africa, and Drake’s circumnavigation of the world were made after Columbus discovered Cuba and the Caribbean islands.

This Age of Reconnaissance was to fulfill dreams of tapping the riches of the East. It resulted in a new continent being discovered, looted, and developed. The carnage that results to the native inhabitants of the New World is testimony to the dynamic transformation symbolized by Pluto crossing the GC. The first English settlements in Jamestown (1607), the Plymouth Pilgrims (1620), and the Massachusetts Bay colony near Boston ten years later eventually resulted in the transformation of the New World. The Indian populations revolted and were subjugated, natural resources were utilized and taken over (owned), and a new culture was established. America was born.
