Guest guest Posted December 31, 2001 Report Share Posted December 31, 2001 Hi Chris , when i sent the link I knew you wouldnt be in agreement with many of the things that Liz Greene stated ....lol, especially her questioning of the validity of many who claimed to have "predicted the attacks". That being said if you read her article carefully she stated that she wasnt negating horary astrology or the people who work specifically in predictive astrology.Anyone who reads any of her work will not come away with a feeling that Liz Greene isnt a capable astrologer or one who lacks any particular "skills".Liz can look at a chart ( and has done it several times in her books) and observe the possibilities of certain things occuring , past , present and future, but thats just not her forte.I the article, She has layed the charts out in order to show the effects of certain transits and progressions that she feels were responsible for the sad state of affairs before and after the attacks.Whether she did it before hand or after is irrelevant.The point is she understand the effects and can communicate them . Liz Greene is a Pyschoanalyist and she approaches Astrology from that perspective.She made several off the cuff predictions several years ago about the possible problems in the USSR which came true.She has been a proponent of Horary for some time and has dedicated several chapters in her books to the issue of timing , predictions and fate , using several case studies and examples.One of her books called the astrology of fate"deals with this whole issue directly in a very thoughfull , and perceptive manner.Shes a jungian so shes just more atuned to dealing with a different area, and maybe observing what planetary links are involved with creating certain events after the fact.No Astrologer could have told us that "two planes would crash into the world trade center in the morning of september 11th".Astrology just might not be that specific, and would we be able to deal with it if it was? As far as the chart of the U.S , I cant comment on that although , i believe that her analysis of the US chart and the Sag ascendant was very convincing ,as well as the over lay she did with the chart of George Bush in comparison.Im not promoting Liz Greene, however I recieved a personal analysis from her that was so detailed and so startlingly accurate in its depth of insight into my character that I immediately dropped all the other stuff i was into and began studying astrology.Im the biggest skeptic out here , so thats a tall feat for her to pull off ..She is a top notch astrologer no doubt.Maybe you should check out some of her stuff , your one of the most open minded guys ive met in Astrology so im sure you will come away impressed.Her books are a storehouse of astrological knowledge, you shouldnt judge her abilities from an article or two on the net.Even our buddy Andy Lynne praised her work in the Saturn book she wrote......Zamani Send your FREE holiday greetings online! http://greetings.

Guest guest Posted December 31, 2001 Report Share Posted December 31, 2001 Dear Zamani Years before it occurred, Liz Green wrote in one of her books, I believe it was the one about the Outer Planets, that the USSR would fall apart as Uranus triggered the 7th house. Right on time it fell to pieces. IT may not be her forte, and I may not be a fan of her writings, but she is a formidable astrologer and one that merits respect. c - Zamani Feelings <zfeelings2 <gjlist> Monday, December 31, 2001 8:03 PM [GJ] On Liz greene > Hi Chris , when i sent the link I knew you > wouldnt be in agreement with many of the things > that Liz Greene stated ....lol, especially her > questioning of the validity of many who claimed > to have "predicted the attacks". > > That being said if you read her article carefully > she stated that she wasnt negating horary > astrology or the people who work specifically in > predictive astrology.Anyone who reads any of her > work will not come away with a feeling that Liz > Greene isnt a capable astrologer or one who lacks > any particular "skills".Liz can look at a chart ( > and has done it several times in her books) and > observe the possibilities of certain things > occuring , past , present and future, but thats > just not her forte.I the article, She has layed > the charts out in order to show the effects of > certain transits and progressions that she feels > were responsible for the sad state of affairs > before and after the attacks.Whether she did it > before hand or after is irrelevant.The point is > she understand the effects and can communicate > them . > > Liz Greene is a Pyschoanalyist and she approaches > Astrology from that perspective.She made several > off the cuff predictions several years ago about > the possible problems in the USSR which came > true.She has been a proponent of Horary for some > time and has dedicated several chapters in her > books to the issue of timing , predictions and > fate , using several case studies and > examples.One of her books called the astrology of > fate"deals with this whole issue directly in a > very thoughfull , and perceptive manner.Shes a > jungian so shes just more atuned to dealing with > a different area, and maybe observing what > planetary links are involved with creating > certain events after the fact.No Astrologer could > have told us that "two planes would crash into > the world trade center in the morning of > september 11th".Astrology just might not be that > specific, and would we be able to deal with it if > it was? > > As far as the chart of the U.S , I cant comment > on that although , i believe that her analysis of > the US chart and the Sag ascendant was very > convincing ,as well as the over lay she did with > the chart of George Bush in comparison.Im not > promoting Liz Greene, however I recieved a > personal analysis from her that was so detailed > and so startlingly accurate in its depth of > insight into my character that I immediately > dropped all the other stuff i was into and began > studying astrology.Im the biggest skeptic out > here , so thats a tall feat for her to pull off > .She is a top notch astrologer no doubt.Maybe you > should check out some of her stuff , your one of > the most open minded guys ive met in Astrology so > im sure you will come away impressed.Her books > are a storehouse of astrological knowledge, you > shouldnt judge her abilities from an article or > two on the net.Even our buddy Andy Lynne praised > her work in the Saturn book she wrote......Zamani > > > > Send your FREE holiday greetings online! > http://greetings. > > > > Om Namo Bhagavate Vasudevaya; Hare Krishna; Om Tat Sat > : gjlist- > > > > Your use of is subject to > > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted January 1, 2002 Report Share Posted January 1, 2002 Zamani, I appreciate Greene's experience and dedication, but my problem with her point of view is the unrecognized contradiction in her approach to prediction. If one is able to choose between different charts in the process of rectification, then one ought to be able to make correct predictions on that basis. It's that simple. If not, then there is no way to determine if the rectification of the chart was correct. Right? Now, if Greene has determined that the Sibley chart is the correct one for the USA, then one ought to be able to predict things from that chart. If not, then the basis for selecting the chart as the correct one is lost. It becomes arbitrary based on more subjective evaluations of national character, etc or post facto explanations of events that have already occurred (hypothetical example: Uranus transit to natal Asc for Lincoln's assassination). So why would somebody who takes the time to sift through different rectification possibilites in the USA chart say that predicting one of the most important events in US history was impossible? Doesn't make sense to me. This is my beef with a lot of astrologers out there who like to riff off a chart with all sorts of fancy post facto analyses and think they're proving it correct somehow. I don't agree. It's a loose form of validation because as anyone who has fooled around with the many USA charts out there can agree, there are often some planetary pattern that fits many different charts for an event. I'm not saying that we shouldn't do post facto analyses -- obviously they're worthwhile and if done properly can help us understand things better. But they will always be a degree of speculativeness to the chart if we haven't correctly made predictions on the basis of the chart. And the degree of event accuracy is a red herring here. To my mind, it doesn't matter a whole lot if someone couldn't have predicted two planes flying into the WTC. That would be less astrological and more in the realm of psychic phenomenon. But someone who predicted an attack on the US of a non-specfic nature, or an event of extreme violence, or terrorist incident, etc -- that would have been noteworthy as far as using the principles of astrology to make future predictions.
