Mysterious swirling blue light paves way for President Obama's acceptance of the Nobel Peace Prize

President Obama accepts Peace prize amidst controversy

When Neptune, the planet of other worldly experiences, and Jupiter, the planet of expanded vision, meet in the futuristic sign of Aquarius ~ I suppose you should expect strange energies from space or possible alien contact.

But that such a fantastic phenomenon would be seen over Oslo, Norway as a prelude to the arrival of President Obama is a very strange phenomenon indeed.

"A mysterious light display appearing over Norway last night has left thousands of residents in the north of the country baffled.

Witnesses from Trøndelag to Finnmark compared the amazing sight to anything from a Russian rocket to a meteor or a shock wave – although no one appears to have mentioned UFOs yet.

The phenomenon began when what appeared to be a blue light seemed to soar up from behind a mountain. It stopped mid-air, then began to circulate.

Within seconds a giant spiral had covered the entire sky. Then a green-blue beam of light shot out from its centre – lasting for ten to twelve minutes before disappearing completely.

The Norwegian Meteorological Institute was flooded with telephone calls after the light storm – which astronomers have said did not appear to have been connected to the aurora, or Northern Lights, so common in that area of the world.

The mystery deepened tonight as Russia denied it had been conducting missile tests in the area.

Fred Hansen, from Bø in Vesterålen, described the sight as ‘like a big fireball that went around, with a great light around it again.’

‘It spun and exploded in the sky,’ Totto Eriksen from Tromsø told VG Nett. He spotted the lights as he walked his daughter Amalie to school. He said: ‘We saw it from the Inner Harbor in Tromsø. It was absolutely fantastic.

‘It almost looked like a rocket that spun around and around and then went diagonally down the heavens.

‘It looked like the moon was coming over the mountain, but then came something completely different.’ Read on ~

President Obama accepts the Peace Prize just nine days after announcing an escalation of the war in Afghanistan. The atmosphere of many in Oslo is not particularily peaceful. Peace activists opposed to the Afghanistan war are planning a 5,000-strong protest in Oslo. And many of us wonder just how Obama will reconcile the acceptance of the Peace Prize peace prize with his decision to send an extra 30,000 US troops to Afghanistan. Nobel peace prize: Norwegians incensed over Barack Obama's snubs

"He’s coming to collect the Peace Prize, but the visit may not be entirely peaceful.

When President Obama arrives in Oslo Thursday to accept his Nobel peace award and deliver the requisite speech, he will likely be met by anti-war protesters, not to mention a Norwegian public that is evidently upset about his decision to skip a number of Nobel events, including lunch with the King of Norway. And then there is the issue, as Jeff Zeleny noted in this morning’s New York Times, of delivering a speech about peace just nine days after announcing an escalation of the war in Afghanistan.

“There is, of course, no escaping the paradox of this moment for Mr. Obama as he delivers an acceptance speech for his Nobel Peace Prize only nine days after announcing that he would escalate the war in Afghanistan by sending in 30,000 more American troops,” Zeleny wrote.

On the anti-war front, about 5,000 people are expected to turn out Thursday to protest the Iraq and Afghanistan wars, according to Benjamin Endre Larsen, leader of Norway’s Peace Initiative. "

The committee’s selection of a young wartime president has been controversial and Republicans are still quietly fuming over the thought of Mr. Obama joining the ranks of Mother Teresa, Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. and Theodore Roosevelt. And some Norwegians are less than pleased that the White House canceled a number of events traditionally attended by the winner, including a dinner with the Nobel committee, reports The Guardian.

Does President Obama deserve the Peace Prize? A new national poll indicates that fewer Americans than ever think the president deserves the award.

WASHINGTON (CNN) – Hours before Barack Obama is awarded the Nobel Peace Prize, a new national poll indicates that fewer Americans than ever think the president deserves the award. But according to a CNN/Opinion Research Corporation survey, a majority of the public believes the president will eventually accomplish enough to merit the honor.

Nineteen percent of people questioned in the poll released Wednesday afternoon say Obama currently deserves the prize, with another 35 percent saying that it’s likely he will eventually accomplish enough in office to deserve the award. Still, greater than four in 10 believe the president will never deserve the prize.

The 19 percent who believe Obama deserves the award is down 13 points from a CNN poll conducted in October, soon after the award was announced.

“That number dropped 21 among Democrats and 10 points among independents, possibly due in part to Obama’s recent decision to send 30,000 more U.S. combat troops to the war in Afghanistan,” says CNN Polling Director Keating Holland.”

The Astrology of Obama’s Nobel Peace Prize
by Patrick Watson

"He accepts the Nobel Peace Prize tomorrow afternoon on December 10th 2009 in Oslo, Norway. Just as Obama has to walk a fine line between his calls for peace and his plans for war, Jupiter the planet of peace and goodwill is opposed to Mars, the planet of war and aggression. This Mars-Jupiter opposition goes across Obama’s horizonal axis, perhaps indicating that some of the conflict lies within himself.

Even more interesting, as Obama accepts this award, Alfred Nobel is posthumously experiencing his sixth Saturn Return. Alfred Nobel was the inventor of dynamite. He felt so bad about having invented something so destructive that he set up the Nobel Prizes to leave a more noble legacy." Read on ~
