Astrology and swine flu
Here's a novel (to me) look at the swine flu scenario. I agree with the conclusion.

http://planetwaves.net/pagetwo/2009/04/25/astrology-swine-flu/

The swine flu story emerged in the United States around the time of the Taurus New Moon, so that can serve as a working chart for the current event. This is an Aries Point chart, with Venus and Mars on the Aries point, square Pluto in early Capricorn.

The issue first was acknowledged March 18, with the Sun at the very end of Pisces — also qualifying as an Aries Point event. The Aries Point indicates precisely the kind of development that is public or widespread in nature but which comes with the feeling of having personal implications. But that does not make the story true, or suggest the actual extent of the impact. Many Aries Point stories manifest as big news events with little actual public impact.

Events currently (including news reports) are unfolding as Mercury moves into shadow phase (this began Thursday). Mercury is currently square Neptune. Both are red flags that we are in an environment susceptible to false information.

Notably, this is surfacing with Chiron conjunct Neptune in the background. This seems a perfect backdrop for this kind of issue. With Jupiter approaching, the story is likely to get bigger before it gets smaller. We are likely to have a dose of ‘what a strange world we live in where so much can go wrong’ kind of thinking. Chiron can be associated with both disease process and with healing process; Neptune is associated with things of an obscure origin, with misdiagnosis and with misunderstanding.

As we can see from the homeopathic literature, influenza is directly associated with anxiety and fear, and in particular, the last major pandemic was treated with a remedy linked to anticipation anxiety. At the moment we are living in a world of that kind of fear, particularly economic in nature. We’re constantly on the brink of ‘what’s gonna happen next?’

We need to watch this psychic theme more carefully than we need to be concerned about actual influenza.

1. Kicking this up, a thread that seems very much the way I am
feeling about this whole "event".

--Both are red flags that we are in an environment susceptible to false information.--

I cannot shake the feeling that the Party of NO, opposing Obama every fathomable way is not basquing in the glory of yet another development to prolong the economic turmoil we were set up for.

The party that took us to war through lies and deceit are not finished with fear and smear, it's their weapon of choice. They love their 911 events, they need them to promote FEAR...they like the anger and panic that ensues.

"We need to watch this psychic theme more carefully than we need to be concerned about actual influenza."

2. Now this is very interesting
My take on this whole thing is similar to yours. We're stocking up on homeopathic remedies dealing with anxiety and stuff, since the FDA has raided the homeopathic compounding places and taken away their stuff they would have used to make a swine flu remedy.

3. Agreed.
We need to watch this possible grand dance of fear mongering for what it is, but still take necessary precautions from the health store.

4. It's interesting that the Jup/Nep/Chiron conjunction in May will also be conjunct U.S. Moon
which represents the public among other things. This whole thing seems to be getting whipped up into a froth by the media.
