BRAD KRONEN’S “WELCOME TO THE SOLAR SYSTEM”
SERIES
Jupiter – Blind Luck or Goodwill with Vision?
www.blogtalkradio.com
Wednesday, August 26th, 830 PM, PST
People, karma doesn’t have short cuts. Nor does it have the same effect of “trading it all in” for a GRAND ULTRA PRIZE!!!!!! As Westerners, especially Americans, these thoughts don’t necessarily sit well with us. Our culture has more or less shown us the glamour of being greedy, or should I say karmicly lazy by having us shout such fervent phrases as:
“Wheel……………of………………..Fortune!” “Who wants to be a Millionaire?”
“Deal or no deal?”
“(Insert random name) come on down! You’re the next contestant on the Price is Right!’
I always find it fascinating yet annoying when doing the solar system that right before the great malefic, Saturn, comes the great benefic, Jupiter. I always feel the need to act as Saturn’s hard sale spokesperson by emphasizing “If you want to get to the lottery winning creamy goodness of Jupiter, you’re going to have to experience the bitter yet fiber and iron enriched Saturn.” Truth be told, more people will want to listen to a lecture or talk radio show about anything to do with luck or fortune versus life’s lessons learned the hard way or rewards reaped from learning from one’s mistakes.
Picture my surprise when I recently spotted a news headline that read:
“LOTTERY WINNER GIVES IT ALL AWAY!”
Not trusting what I saw, I at first misread it as “Lottery winner spends winnings right away!” and truly was shocked to see otherwise. Last spring, Jim Dancy of Richland, Michigan won the state lottery upon which he then proceeded to write a check to the United Way for the same amount he had won! This isn’t “Big Money, No Whammies!”……this is actually that OTHER side of Jupiter that everyone seems to forget but is just as valid, strong and equal as luck and fortune combined – Goodwill Towards Men.
Jupiter has pretty much everything to do with a higher power for we as mortals really don’t have to “do” anything to reap its benefits – you simply are lucky or you aren’t. How wondrous then that the first time the phrase “Goodwill Towards Men” is brought to our ears is actually by higher level beings, Angels, when a multitude of them proclaim :
“Peace on Earth and Goodwill Towards Men!”
Times are hard, this we know. People tend to look for any get rich quick solution when times become challenging. But the more we hear requests of helping someone “down on their luck” we need to amp up “Goodwill Towards Men” just as badly to even things out.
So join me won’t you? Because luck be a planet tonight!
Jupiter Fun Fact: In astrology, Jupiter is called “the great benefic” because of its association with luck and divine blessings or guidance. The King of Planets is the “great benefic” to planet Earth in the most literal sense as well – Jupiter’s magnetic belt deflects asteroids and other life destroying space objects from hurdling right towards us! To bring this point home, a mere few weeks ago scientists noticed that the surface of Jupiter had a brand new bright spot on its surface indicating an impact scar. They theorize that whatever hit Jupiter as of late was around the size of the Earth’s entire Pacific Ocean!

Mars – Song of the Day From Brad Kronen’s “Welcome to the Solar System” Series Works every time.) So now that I have each of your undivided attentions…… Of all the planets in my “Welcome to the Solar System” Series, Mars is the planet who has the areas of life under his domain that are all prevalent and as current as one can get – War, Athletics (any kind of Sports fan included), Rage (any kind of Road or Roid derivative included), and of course SEX! So since I thought that “people would have had enough of silly little love songs” that I didn’t even bother to do a song write up for Venus’ and her nose rubbing crew, I thought I’d entertain myself (don’t even go there) by discussing Sex from the viewpoint of song and Brad’s nasty and perverse mind!! Sex is one of a miniscule few words in the English language that can emote every range of emotion from almost any teen or adult. Those three simple letters spell out so much more than just an instinctual drive or physical act. Any given person who approaches sex comes bringing their own individual palette of upbringing, imagination, fears, expectations, assumptions, hopes, angers, joys, energies and even mental health. Sex is often such a complicated and multi-layered force that many times how one performs in the bedroom has absolutely nothing to do with the act of sex itself! I have chosen 2 songs for Monday’s roll in the cosmic hay since sex happens with/between 2 distinct human voices - man and woman. Being the dualisitic devouring Gemini that I am, both songs reflect opposite spectrums of a person's approach or role assignment to sex - masculine/feminine, light-playful-creative-fun versus dark-forceful-rage filled. The first is from my 2nd favorite band growing up, Berlin. "Sex.....I'm A" was quite the shocker when it hit the air waves in 1982, but I consider it a very light hearted take to how people approach sex especially in the light of gender. The song is a duet between a man and a woman talking about how freaking hot it gets when they make love together. And just how do they go about creating this heat? Well the woman goes into her list of possibilities that rolls across the floor of sexual personae she likes to become ranging from goddess to virgin to hooker to your mother. Her voice changes with each sexual identity like she's vocally changing costumes. The word "geisha" is said with such playful agility one can picture her coming into the bedroom with a black wig and very very very short kimono while bowing and giggling. And the man? The man is........well, a man. And continues to be such for the entire song. Funnily enough, that setup has stayed the same to the present day for the most part. Ladies, for all the hell you go through with things like menstruation and child bearing it's nice to know that you have the freedom for limitless sexual expression - that is, provided you are in Westernized society and don't have a headache.) A decade later in 1992 Stone Temple Pilots released a song called "Sex Type Thing" - and all hell broke loose! The song was banned from many radio stations for its violent content and was deemed as an incitement for rape. I remember seeing the band confronted by throngs of journalists and the look of horror and frustration on lead singer Scott Weiland's face. He adamently denied that the song was a reflection of his sexual thoughts and said that it described the raw base expression of male sexual response and the lyrics were about pure testosterone. I think that the song is exactly that and is such an important counterpoint. It is one of my all time favorites because it has a dark, pulsing beat that is relentless through the entire song and to be honest every time I hear it scares the hell out of me.) Weiland's voice is gravel-like but in a seriously strong way. Throughout the song he repeats the words "Here I come, I come, I come." which at first are distant and foreboding and by the end of the song you realize, there's no escape! The song is definitely not for everyone and a lot people may be repulsed that I list it since it has such blatantly controversial lyrics such as "I said ya shouldn't have worn that dress". Camille Paglia, author of "Sexual Personae", was greatly criticized for her so-called anti-feminist statement about the need of women to be aware of how provocative they look and the sexual response it can garner in men. She was accused of pushing the woman's movement backwards in time and I feel she is one of the most liberal minds of our age and that the statement is justified. With everything in life, there are good and bad sides, fun and dangerous. Sex is such a huge, powerful, all encompassing entity that has been with us since time began. It is a natural and healthy thing, but it must always be respected and should be viewed in the light of as an expression of love and imagination as well as a sheer animal force which controls life and even death. "Sex.........I'm A" by Berlin Feel the fire, feel my love inside you it's so right There's the sound and the smell of love in my mind I'm a toy, come and play with me, say the word now Wrap your legs around mine and ride me tonight I'm a man - I'm a goddess I'm a man - Well I'm a virgin I'm a man - I'm a blue movie I'm a man - I'm a bitch I'm a man - I'm a geisha I'm a man - I'm a little girl And we make love together Slip and slide in your wet delight, feel the blood flow Not too fast, don't be slow, my love's in your hands I'm a man - I'm a boy I'm a man - Well I'm your mother I'm a man - I'm a one night stand I'm a man - Am I bi I'm a man - I'm a slave I'm a man - I'm a little girl And we make love together Skin to skin, tongue to oooh!

It is one of my all time favorites because it has a dark, pulsing beat that is relentless through the entire song and to be honest every time I hear it scares the hell out of me.) Weiland's voice is gravel-like but in a seriously strong way. Throughout the song he repeats the words "Here I come, I come, I come." which at first are distant and foreboding and by the end of the song you realize, there's no escape! The song is definitely not for everyone and a lot people may be repulsed that I list it since it has such blatantly controversial lyrics such as "I said ya shouldn't have worn that dress".
Camille Paglia, author of "Sexual Personae", was greatly criticized for her so-called anti-feminist statement about the need of women to be aware of how provocative they look and the sexual response it can garner in men. She was accused of pushing the woman's movement backwards in time and I feel she is one of the most liberal minds of our age and that the statement is justified. With everything in life, there are good and bad sides, fun and dangerous. Sex is such a huge, powerful, all encompassing entity that has been with us since time began. It is a natural and healthy thing, but it must always be respected and should be viewed in the light of as an expression of love and imagination as well as a sheer animal force which controls life and even death. "Sex.........I'm A" by Berlin Feel the fire, feel my love inside you it's so right There's the sound and the smell of love in my mind I'm a toy, come and play with me, say the word now Wrap your legs around mine and ride me tonight I'm a man - I'm a goddess I'm a man - Well I'm a virgin I'm a man - I'm a blue movie I'm a man - I'm a bitch I'm a man - I'm a geisha I'm a man - I'm a little girl And we make love together Slip and slide in your wet delight, feel the blood flow Not too fast, don't be slow, my love's in your hands I'm a man - I'm a boy I'm a man - Well I'm your mother I'm a man - I'm a one night stand I'm a man - Am I bi I'm a man - I'm a slave I'm a man - I'm a little girl And we make love together Skin to skin, tongue to oooh! Come on honey hold tight Come inside, it's a passion play just for you Let's get lost in that magic place all alone now Drink your fill from my fountain of love, wet your lips I'm a man - I'm a teaser I'm a man - Well I'm a virgin I'm a man - I'm a one night stand I'm a man - I'm a drug I'm a man - Well I'm your slave I'm a man - I'm a dream divine And we make love together I'm a man - I'm a goddess I'm a man - I'm a hooker I'm a man - I'm a blue movie I'm a man - I'm a slut I'm a man - I'm a geisha I'm a man - I'm YOUR babe I'm a man - I'm a dream divine And we make love together And we'll make love forever Sex Type Thing by Stone Temple Pilots I am, I am, I am I said I wanna get next to you I said I gonna get close to you You wouldn't want me have to hurt you too, hurt you too ?

MARS –
Male Aggression Begotten from Feminine Rage

(8PM, PST for the non war-like)
“We may discover resources on the moon or Mars that will boggle the imagination, that will test our limits to dream. And the fascination generated by further exploration will inspire our young people to study math, and science, and engineering and create a new generation of innovators and pioneers.” – George W. Bush, Speech given at NASA Headquarters, Jan. 14, 2004
“President Bush announced that we were landing on Mars today... which means he's given up on Earth.” – John Stewart, The Daily Show, Jan. 14, 2004
“Ladies and gentlemen, I have a grave announcement to make. Incredible as it may seem, strange beings who landed in New Jersey tonight are the vanguard of an invading army from Mars.” – Orson Welles, The War of the Worlds
“Men are from Mars, Women are from Venus.” – John Gray from his book “Men are from Mars, Women are from Venus”
Mars is the fourth planet from the Sun, and is the seventh largest planet in the Solar System. Although its size and atmosphere are very different, many of its geographical features are similar to Earth’s. In January 2009, scientists reported finding large amounts of methane gas located over the northern polar region in the summer months. Many believe this finding could indicate micro organisms alive on Mars. – Fox News
I have come to the conclusion that human beings have no time or interest overall for such things as communication, love, or beauty; what we really care about is WAR and SEX!
This was determined from my previous 2 shows where I discovered that space exploration has been practically non-exsistent for the planet of communication, Mercury or for the planet of love, Venus. However, the data for the planet of brawling and schtupping rolls across the floor – right down to “Amazon.com – Mars Merchandise” to “Google Product Search – Mars”!
If Venus represents the feminine side of our personalities, then Mars is all about GUY TALK! Many people think your Venus placement colors your sexuality, think again.
Sex is under Mars’ domain – as is how fast you are, how clumsy you are, how warm you are and how hungry you get for food, work, and fist fights!
Mythologically, Mars or Ares were 2 very different gods depending on whether you lived in ancient Rome or Greece. He was one of the most revered gods in Rome considering all the prestige and enthusiasm over THE most violent and bloody spectator “sports”? of all time which the Gladiators executed in the Colleseum. The ancients Greeks, however, considered any kind of overt aggression distasteful and unintelligent, so their god of war was a clumsy idiot who could even be trapped by mortals in a bottle (“bottled rage”).
So join me won’t you? Because MARS ATTACKS! And for all you ladies, gay guys or married shemales, you might want to pay close attention to this one: *THE KEY TO A MAN IS HIS MARS *
Mars Fun Fact: You may have seen the title of the show and thought hmmmm how thought provoking......or you may be going huh? The artsy title is from the myth of Mars' or Ares' creation. The goddess of wisdom, Athena, came into being when she literally sprung out of Zeus' head and his wife Hera was SO ticked off that she was not involved in the whole “procreation of a god” business that she blew her own blood vessels and spat forth in pure rage - the god of War, Mars.

Venus – Love ain’t cheap

“The Goddess on the Mountain Top
Burning like a Silver Flame
The Summit of Beauty of Love
And Venus was her name.”
- Lyrics from the song “Venus” by the Shocking Blue
Venus, the second planet from the Sun, lies, on average, 108 million km from the Sun, about 30% closer than the Earth. Venus is often referred to as our sister planet because of similarities in size, mass, density and volume. There the similarities end. Venus has no surface water, and an atmospheric pressure is over 90 times that of the Earth at sea-level.
- ESA Science and Technology
Mirror, Mirror who is the fairest in the zodiac? Depends on whom or what you think is fair........or more aptly whom VENUS thinks is fair. With Venus in Sagittarius fairness comes in the form of a foreign accent. With Venus in Capricorn things get really fair in the form of the older and more experienced lover. With Venus in Aquarius, fairness is found in the male or female version of the computer geek. And if you were born during a Venus Retrograde then your version of pretty a lot of times can mean downright FUGLY to the rest of us!
Considered one of the “benefic” planets, Venus’ main sphere of influence should be obvious when considering the Romans worshipped her as the goddess of Love and Romance. However, when we see that Venus not only rules pretty swan necked Librans but also sensual Taurus and that sign’s ruling 2nd house of MONEY, then it may just justify for those times when we dumb mortals are festooned by Cupid’s Love Arrows (the evil cherub was Venus’ kid by the way) and have giddily thrown wads of cash away which at any other time would be reason enough to check yourself into the local mental asylum!
Earth’s Twin has a lot more to do with us than just l’amour. How we spend our cash, our overall aesthetics and appreciation of the “beautiful” as well as how we decorate our homes are all under the eye of VENUS!
So join me won’t you? Love is a many splendored………….goddess. And for all you guys, lesbians or married shemales, you might want to pay close attention to this one: *THE KEY TO A WOMAN IS HER VENUS"
Venus Fun Fact: One would think being so similar looking a "marble" as Earth and so close to us with such a sweet lovely name that the planet Venus would have a lovely terrain with picturesque views - the actual climate of Venus consists of massive storms of sulfuric acid! Love stinks. )
