Will Neptune in Pisces bring the legalization of marijuana?

It looks like we're heading in that direction:  "The Justice Department this week announced that it will no longer seek to prosecute people using, prescribing, or distributing pot for medical purposes, as long as they're in compliance with local law. However, regulations in some medical marijuana states remain murky."

Murky sounds like Neptune, whose penchant for transcendent experiences encompasses both the sublime and spiritual and the confused and deluded.  An argument can be made the marijuana straddes both of these realms and can be used for spiritual insight as well as the illusion of escapism.

Neptune enters Pisces, its own sign, in April 2011.  Since both Neptune and Pisces rule all kinds of drugs, both natural and pharmaceutical, it is likely that legalization and recategorization of drugs could take place during this time period, along with a growing acceptance of drugs as tools for religious experience.

Valid medicinal value, it’s a victimless crime, the War on Drugs WAY too costly, too many arrests for simple possession, tax it and use the money to pay for health insurance and to reduce the deficit. Need I say more?

Woodstock Universe supports legalization of Marijuana for a number of reasons. Check them out and vote in our poll "Should marijuana be legalized?" at http://woodstockuniverse.com

Current poll results: 96% for legalization and 4% opposed. Add your vote. Poll runs through October.

Peace, love, music, one world,

One of the strongest urges of humankind is to alter one's consciousness. Of COURSE marijuana should be legal, just like alcohol and coffee are. For those who would protest, would you criminalize vicodin oxy-contin and all those other brain-altering legal drugs you can get with a prescription?

Friends and I have found that when a "pet" is dying of old age, keeping it high on marijuana not only eases its depression but also gives it another reason to keep trying. Don't blow the smoke into its face; blow into its EAR.

In really terms it has already happened. Check out this article for the full story. The current Saturn Uranus opposition is also clearly at work.
