But the Declaration of Independence did NOT create a "union" of any kind. It created thirteen independent colonies, independent from Great Britain AND INDEPENDENT FROM EACH OTHER. What DID create the United States was the signing of the ARTICLES OF CONFEDERATION. And this occurred in YORKTOWN, PENNSYLVANIA on NOVEMBER 15, 1777. And THAT is the date that must also be used for CORRECT Astrological considerations of the birth of the United States. NOVEMBER 15TH should be made another NATIONAL HOLIDAY! UN-altered REPRODUCTION and DISSEMINATION of this IMPORTANT Information is ENCOURAGED. Robert E. McElwaine
