The Causes of “Clinical Depression” among American Girls




Andromeda & Cetus


This morning I listened, with a lot of frustration, to the usually very informative and usually quite balanced morning radio interview program “On Point Radio with Tom Ashbrook”

The program “revealed” supposedly new information about the high incidence of so-called “clinical depression” among American girls. The two guests on the program were actually academic psychiatrists who had recently had their research published in the Journal of Pediatrics.

The high incidence of long-lasting sadness and behavioral dysfunction among girls is actually very old news and the fact that it is getting worse should come as no surprise. 99% of our celebrity-worshipping and excessively fashion-conscious American girls are trying to survive in a junk culture while simultaneously being mal-nourished, sleep-deprived, over-stressed, over-drugged, over-vaccinated, sexually-harassed, sexually-abused, and screen time- and pornography-toxified all the while trying to pretend to be happy and not emotional distressed! Impossible!  Dr. Gary G. Kohls; Feb. 22





In the last few posts, I have  dealt with the Jupiter-Uranus-Pluto T-square  which is building toward a crescendo as Mars begins to trigger the combination. Let us recall that Mars entered Aries, on January 28, and for the last couple of weeks has been marching toward a conjunction with Uranus, and as it nears Uranus, Mars also forms an opposition to Jupiter and along the way, a square to Pluto.

The central or core aspect here is still the Uranus-Pluto square for which a key phrase is “breakdown”. Dr. Gary G. Kohls resides in Duluth, Minnesota and posted the article on Feb. 22, the very day the Moon entered  its Balsamic phase. A chart for the Moon phase brings the Mars- Jupiter-Uranus-Pluto T-square  to the meridian.


On the MC with Mars and Uranus  we have stars in the belly of Cetus, the sea monster and some others in the head of King Cepheus and in the chains of Princess Andromeda. The sea is linked to the unconscious and the sea monster is symbolically the chaos that the unconscious can produce when it destabilizes the conscious mind (Cepheus’ head). Symbolically Princess Andromeda, daughter of King Cepheus, is chained and a potential victim of the sea-monster (depression or psychic disturbances) because of problems created (and unaddressed) by the older generation.  Old beliefs, outmoded ways of being, or constricted limits are now being ruthlessly destroyed through unexpected shocks that provoke us to awaken from unconscious, compulsively-driven, or fantasy-based states of belief or routine.
