According to the stars all transparancies will be revealed - something to do with Saturn or is it Pluto?

The amendment to the Rules of the TS which was approved in 2006 is 
included in the Minutes of the meeting of the General Council of the 
TS for December 2006. The Minutes are an integral part of the Annual 
Report of the Theosophical Society for 2006 which was sent, by the 
International Secretary, to all General Secretaries, Organising 
Secretaries, Presidential Representatives and Lodges directly 
attached to Adyar. 

The Annual Report of the TS, which is sent out from Adyar every year 
around March/April, is therefore a public document. It is up to the 
above officials, which include GC members, to make it available to TS 
members.
