ZeroHedge – Earlier today we noted that Gregg Berman, the SEC’s HFT “investigator” whose algorithm investigating hilariously involved the use of a platform created by an HFT firm, will be leaving the regulator later this month. Perhaps he can give Jamie Dimon a ring because as it turns out, JP Morgan is in the process of creating a new division which, much like the SEC, will deploy machines in an effort that’s ostensibly designed to catch people doing things wrong, but which will, in the end, likely prove completely ineffectual at rooting out the type of manipulation and general chicanery that has over time transformed nearly every market into a farcical, manipulated shadow of its former self.  Continue reading

How To Grow An Avocado Tree For Endless Organic Avocados

Real Farmacy –  Avocados are highly nutritious and flavored, whether we’re talking about salad, guacamole, or straight up! They are a key staple for a nutritious and delicious diet. Try growing an avocado tree at home if you don’t like making regular trips to the grocery store for your daily supply of fresh avocados, can’t find organic ones, or are fed up with spending so much for quality produce. It’s surprisingly easy. You will see how you too can get a full–grown avocado tree from a little seed in 10 easy steps. Here’s what you need to do:

STEP 1

Remove the seed and gently wash off any fruit stuck to it to prevent molding. Soaking the pit for a few minutes in some water first will make this task easier. Be careful NOT to remove the brown skin from the pit!

Neofeudalism 101: Strip-Mining the Upper Middle Class

Charles Hugh Smith – I have often examined the Neofeudalist structure of the U.S. economic hierarchy, and the many social and financial fault lines running through this creaking structure. For example:

America’s Nine Classes: The New Class Hierarchytaxes (April 29, 2014)

Are You an Elitist? Class Warfare and the New Nobility (April 26, 2014)

Protecting Elites and the Clerisy Class That Serves Them (September 26, 2014)

Bifurcation Nation (June 24, 2013)

The Three-and-a-Half Class Society (October 22, 2012)

Tyranny of the Majority, Corporate Welfare and Complicity (April 9, 2010)

Today I’d like to examine the neofeudal strip-mining of the class that pays most of the taxes. These taxes support the bottom 50% who pay the 7.65% payroll taxes and receive substantial income tax credits, and enables the super-wealthy to pay lower tax rates on their vast unearned income.

Let’s take a quick glance at payroll and income taxes for context. Individual income taxes and Social Security/payroll taxes total $2.4 trillion.Corporate and other taxes add $600 billion, for a total of $3 trillion in Federal tax receipts.

2 out of 3 taxpayers pay more in payroll taxes than income taxes: Continue reading

Electricity In The Air And Christ/Mary Magdalene Healing

Dana Mrkich – Over the last couple of days it has felt like there is erratic electricity, almost like static, running through the air. There are strange computer/technological goings on, and feelings of heightened anxiety, scattered mental energy, and difficulty feeling totally settled and divinegrounded. You may also feel the heart pumping more than usual and adrenals going, very similar to solar flare energy.

The energy has felt very Mercury/Uranus in nature and sure enough Mercury and the Sun are both on/moving through the same degree that Uranus is sitting on (16 Aries if you know your chart).

This helps explain why everything feels a bit Mercury retrograde even though we are not in one, and why the Sun feels like it is flaring like crazy even though solar activity is technically low. When a planet touches the same space as Uranus it is like it receives some extra zhoozh, a bit of an electric shock or jolt, and of course we feel it down here especially if we have significant planets or points on or near that degree in our natal chart. (You can check out www.astro.com to see if you do)

Aside from this we are still feeling the after-effects of a Blood Moon Lunar Eclipse in Relationships-oriented Libra that occurred during Easter weekend opposite all this Uranus energy. The timing of this Eclipse feels to have triggered a lot of Christ/Mary Magdalene wounds and healing (that we are only now coming to some sort of awareness around) related to the events/stories that created what our culture now celebrates as Easter.

Oracle Report ~ Thursday, April 9, 2015

Disseminating Moon in Sagittarius: communicate, share

Wisdom Goddess: Bhairavi (The World Nurse)

Skill: determining what is needed

retrograde

Positive Imprints: free expression, rewards, simple acts of kindness, renewal of something, the return of knowledge, hope, assisting others, surviving the test of time, an inner quest, truth

Catalysts for Change: judgmental, denying self, harshly rejecting something, over-blown sense of self, seeking the approval of others at the expense of one’s spirit, expecting others to meet needs that are meant for us to meet, inhibiting free speech

Sabian Symbol for the Lunar Month: “a majestic rock formation resembling a face is idealized by a boy who takes it up as his ideal of greatness, and as he grows up begins to look like it”

In the midst of swift change, it is a skillful spiritual warrior who is able to maintain the mystical connection.

Today’s energy centers around the issues of needs. What do you need? What do you need to do, say, change, accept, release, or see? What do you need to dream about, wish for, or hope for? What needs to be awakened or reawakened inside of you?

In the imagery of this lunar month’s Sabian symbol, as artists working in stone, what does the emerging sculpture need at this stage? What does your “ideal of greatness” require now?

How do the needs of others fit in? Continue reading
