Is the DC Madam haunting DC?

by Jude Cowell, keepin' it astrology

July 17, 2025: Below is my original post concerning the controversial death of "DC Madam" Deborah Jeane Palfrey but with a few edits and code corrections for the sake of clarity; a previously included news link is no longer available so I deleted it, and a related horoscope is included below for curious readers:

A headline back in the day read, Alleged Call Girl Professor Hanged Self Jan 30, 2007:

A former university professor accused of working as a call girl hanged herself over the weekend, police said Monday. Brandy Britton was found dead at her home Saturday by a family member. Britton, who was a sociology and anthropology professor at the University of Maryland, Baltimore County, was charged a year ago with four counts of prostitution and was scheduled to go on trial next Monday. #

Then came this:

Police: 'DC Madam' Palfrey Hanged Self in FL May 1, 2008:

Deborah Jeane Palfrey, convicted last month of running a high-end prostitution service in Washington DC, hanged herself in a shed outside her mother's mobile home in Florida today, officials said. Authorities were called to the Sun Valley Estates Mobile Home Park in Tarpon Springs, Florida, by Blanche Palfrey, who found her daughter's body hanging by a nylon rope shortly before 11 a.m., Tarpon Springs police Capt. Jeffrey P. Young said at a news conference. He said Deborah Palfrey left at least two suicide notes, but he declined to discuss their contents. #

Well, I remember this case and that Deborah Jeane had reportedly said to investigative journalist and author Dan Moldea, with whom she was working on a book that, "I am not going back to prison. I will commit suicide first."

Meanwhile, her Wikipedia page contains a variety of details for the curious reader: Deborah Jeane Palfrey.

Now here's an excerpt from one of my 2007 posts, edited for clarity:

Earthwalk Astrology's (Robert) Blaschke had spoken by phone with the DC Madam and she gave him her birth data. The federal charges against her may be dismissed or reduced - her Secondary Progressed Moon was trining natal Jupiter at the time of her indictment, March 1 (edit: apparently this did not happen):

Deborah Jeane Palfrey Mar 18, 1956, North Charleroi, PA 16:55:00 GMT

And here's her natal Sun Pisces-Moon Gemini personality blend's Images for Integration:

"A child grips his magic red balloon as it lifts him into the sky and over the sea onto an island of eternal beauty...A schoolboy dreams of heroic deeds during a class on the romantic poets" (Sun Sign-Moon Sign, Charles and Suzy Harvey #ad).

UPDATE July 17, 2025:

Below you see a speculativley timed "found dead" horoscope for Deborah Jeane Palfrey set for "shortly before 11:00 am" (news reports). As we know, Angular planets at death are significant and her natal Mars is setting at the angular Descendant and her natal Sun (vitality) is visible at Midheaven:

Note: On March 19, 2007, a 9 New North Solar Eclipse @28Pis07 landed upon and dimmed Deborah Palfrey's natal Sun (@27Pis47 in natal 1st house) with 9NN themes of: 'accidents; great physical eoffort; violence; sudden physical events' (Brady) which suggests a risky period for her. Of interest is that 9 New North happens to be the current Solar Eclipse Series running in the background of society since a 9NN Eclipse manifested on March 29, 2025 @9Ari00.

And so I'm wishing that Deborah Jeane Palfrey can R.I.P.

Those Epstein Mysteries

by Jude Cowell, keeping it astrology

Dear Reader: the following post is for entertainment purposes only; however, the topic of death is always sadly serious and not to be taken lightly. Therefore, sensitive readers may wish to skip this post. jc

UPDATE 7.17.25: Today I'm adding the 11:05 pm horoscope (Saturn-Pluto = MC) to this post as you can see, below along with a link to a 2008 post regarding the mysterious death of the DC Madam.. Orignial post begins here:

In 2023, we discussed the August 10, 2019 "found dead' horoscope of prison inmate Jeffrey Epstein with its major Saturn-Pluto influences hitting Epstein's natal Mercury, planet of bean-spilling, messages, and other communications. In fact, transit Mercury in Cancer was opposing US 1776 Pluto so intense communications and the urge to manipulate and/or withhold information was the general order of the day.

Then even without an accurate birth time for him ('noon' is used), we know that when transit Pluto conjuncts natal Mercury (a direct 'hit' at Jeffrey's ending) - or any Mercury for that matter - communications intensify, are altered, or may be destroyed all together. My suspicion is that what Epstein knew, and could have revealed, was "taken care of," as perhaps you may agree.

However, if he physically could have committed suicide (there was nothing to "hang from" in the ceiling of his cell, or so I've heard), the astrological implications of death don't change, and so - nearby Saturn, a planet of legalities known for its "stopping" and "restricting" functions, suggests the seriousness of his incarcerated circumstances. Additionally, karmic Saturn in its own sign of Capricorn is strong-willed, ego-centric, and often one-sided.

Then when Saturn pairs with manipulative Pluto (the assassin), severity, harshness, brutality, and/or primal violence can express. Plus, the harsh duo in Capricorn conjoined the transiting South Node, a Saturnian point of separation, which hinted that past actions were part of conditions in Summer 2019 and had forcefully returned to be dealt with, one way or another.

Protection of the Powerful

So an existing list of clients or no list, What Jeffrey Knew about people in power, in the political, corporate, religious, and entertainment fields - and what he could reveal about them - would have been the main point of hushing up his voice (Mercury) if indeed he was assassinated. Yet to be fair, association with the convicted sex trafficker need only be something mundane (such as having dinner at one of his houses) in order to be career, status, and/or freedom ending if names were revealed to the public and to prosecutors.

And obviously an uncovering of names would become highly inconvenient for those involved, and still could. Yet some names have already been mentioned such as Bill Gates and Bill Clinton but no harsh effects for them are as yet noted by yours truly. Perhaps you may disagree.

August 9-10: A Video Reset or Tampering to Hide a Secret Visitation?

So maybe there's nothing important about the skip of a minute on the CC tape of August 9, 2019 until 12:00:00 am edt of August 10, 2019 but let's consider the time frame's midpoint pictures along with Epstein's natal midpoint pictures, those of 11:05 pm edt on August 9, 2019 (when Saturn-and-Pluto reached the Goal Point), plus, his "found dead" horoscope (about 6:30 am August 10, 2019). The word pictures may be informative concerning environmental circumstances and participating actors (planets), if nothing else.

First, you may wish to review Jeffrey Epstein's X-rated (hour unknown) natal horoscope. His natal midpoint pictures at noon: Mercury-Jupiter = Venus and Mars: being enraptured; execution of plans (R. Ebertin).

"Missing minute" midpoint pictures - although a couple more minutes are now said to be missing, so the CC tape is possibly doctored by the DOJ and/or the FBI (in 2019 these agencies operated under the first Tr*mp White House tenure; and note that at midnight, "doomed" Atlantis arose along with Tr*mp's natal MC - Taurus, sign of the throat): Moon-Neptune = MC: gripped by forebodings (R. Ebertin); notoriety (MM); Jupiter-Neptune = MC: speculators, fortune hunters, wastrels; harm or damage through thoughtlessness (RE); the role of politics as a way to gain stature and status (MM).

On August 9, 2019 at 11:05 pm edt, transit Saturn and Pluto reached MC forming the only midpoint picture in the midnight chart: knowing how to acquire and use power which can make significant changes in society (MM); desire to rise from difficult circumstances; severity; self-sacrifice; one-sidedness (RE).

Edit: Here's the August 9, 2019 11:05 pm edt Horoscope marked with astro-notes:

Epstein "Found dead" 8/10/19 6:30 am edt midpoint pictures: Sun-Mars = Ascendant: focusng on the competition (M. Munkasey); Pluto-MC = Neptune: dubious practices to increase power or prestige (MM).

Well, thanks for reading! Hopefully you find some value in this post. jc

To close, here's a previous post from June 2025 that includes Jeffrey Epstein's Death Chart of August 2019 surrounded by his noon natal chart.

Jeffrey Epstein 1953-2019; May he R.I.P. however he can.

Astro-Notes: America's Saturn-Neptune Cycle

by Jude Cowell, partisan for the common good

Considering the massive social and political shifts occurring these days, here are two images for you on the topic of the Saturn-Neptune combination of energies in society:

1. A bi-wheel with what I suspect is the beginning of America's Saturn-Neptune Cycle (center; September 27, 1773 @18Vir42:53 - conjunct Mercury 18:50) surrounded by the DC Horoscope of the February 20, 2026 Saturn-Neptune Conjunction at the Cardinal Aries Point of World Events:

2. A dual image showing the Saturn-Neptune Conjunction of September 27, 1773 @18Vir42:53 conjunct Mercury (upper right) and the February 20, 2026 Saturn-Neptune Conjunction (lower left):

Of significance is (what I call) a cosmic time link from 1773 to 2026 created by the Pre-Event Eclipse of 1773 ('PE'; Total) in the 10 North Saros Series because a 10 North Eclipse repeats on February 17, 2026 (Annular) and - surprise! - 10 North is the 'PE' of the February 20, 2026 Saturn-Neptune Conjunction @28AQ49.

Therefore, 10 North themes closely link to Saturn-Neptune energies in the US and elsewhere with the planetary duo's multiplicity of potentials.

10 North themes: 'emphasis on communications; frustration or inhibitions regarding news, paperwork, and/or young people; sense of drained energy and fatigue; work through difficulties one at a time' (paraphrasing B. Brady).

Initial 10 North: April 25, 944 (OS) @9Tau53 conjunct Mercury Rx @10Tau04.

Since we know that history tends to rhyme, a look at historical Events of 1773 could be instructive for the curious reader, especially when it comes to the topic of cups of tea.

And for a deeper dive into history, try Events of 944.

July-August 2025 Lunations - and Regulus

by Jude Cowell, partisan for the common good

As you see in the DC Horoscope below, fixed star Regulus, the "little king" star, features prominently in the August 23, 2025 New Moon Horoscope.

But first, have a look at a dual image of two charts - the New Moon of July 24th @2Leo08 (lower left and opposed by Pluto Rx @2AQ36 which suggests critical phases of development, plus, reversion to the brutal animalism now operating in society), and the July 24th New Moon's subsequent Full Moon of August 9, 2025 @16AQ59:55 (upper right) when some sort of culmination or fulfillment of plans can occur - likely in the technological (cyber/AI) spheres of development which includes surveillance and subversion along with a generous measure of arrogance, squandering, and theatricality mixed in:

And below is the DC Horoscope of the August 23, 2025 New Moon conjunct royal star Regulus with aspect grid included. As you know, a New Moon can behave in similar Uranian fashion to a Solar Eclipse (a wild card: disruptive, course-changing, a cosmic blink) while a Full Moon can have similar effects as a Lunar Eclipse: revelatory, casting a bright glare upon inconvenient facts or secrets that may lead to scandal):

Then if we treat the August 23, 2025 New Moon as if it's a Solar Eclipse, aspects to the lunation become significant especially considering current events and the actors perpetrating them. They are:

Saturn inconjunct: freeloaders with no sense of duty or responsibility;

Neptune inconjunct: escapists who can't or won't face reality and who carry enormous karmic debts they tend to project upon others;

Pluto inconjunct: brutal, violent people with no sense of right or wrong;

Uranus square: people indifferent to the needs of society with an uncaring attitude toward humanity. In other words, anti-societal people such as criminals, gangsters, thieves, political extremists and zealots.

Then as you likely know, Regulus rises in the natal chart of a man some call Donny John; therefore, the inconjuncts in the YOD pattern/s, plus, the square from radical Uranus, also spotlight this particular deviant. So if these aspects remind you of anyone currently behaving corruptly in politics, then we're on the same page.

July 10, 2025: a Capricorn Full Moon casts a bright spotlight

by Jude Cowell

"When one with honeyed words but evil mind persuades the mob, great woes befall the state."

- Euripides, his play Orestes first presented in 408 B.C.E.

Caution Advised: the following post may not be suitable for sensitive readers. jc

Previously discussed here on SO'W is the Capricorn Full Moon of July 10, 2025 @18Cap50:02 which conjuncts and spotlights the *Uranus-Neptune Conjunction/s of 1993 (3x: @18-20 Capricorn). In the past, this duo has symbolized The Enlightenment combination of planetary energies and principles (Science + Faith) but due to recent political and social developments in the US and elsewhere, we find that the illuminating energies have been darkened and are now utilized by "bad faith actors" - by a criminal conspiracy of gangsters (aka, mobsters) - those of the Neptune-Pluto persuasion (organized/underworld criminal networks, now in charge of government).

Then in 2017, transit Pluto reached the Uranus-Neptune Conjunction degree area (1993) thus directly activating a midpoint picture of "The big picture commands a certain course of action, little option to do otherwise" (N. Tyl). If this reminds you of the iconic mobster slogan of "an offer that can't be refused," then we're on the same page. And we know that in US politics, such threats of force have been and are being made, subtly via AR-15 lapel pins worn in Congress, and worse by violent acts.

Full Moon July 10, 2025 4:36:45 pm edt Washington DC; Mars conjunct MC:

So as you may have noticed, the world is being turned into a "prison planet," an outcome that sane folk have dreaded and fought against for years; notably, its figurehead in the US is Mr. Tr*mp, a deft, propagandizing con man who shows an innate ability to fool and exploit millions of people.

Meanwhile, there's a vintage website I first discovered years ago via Alex Jones (who's apparently joined the dark side if he hadn't before) promoting his film The Endgame which is all about the NWO as a "Blueprint for Global Enslavement" ("They Want You Dead").

As it turns out, and as many people clearly see, this is no addle-headed conspiracy theory, for it directly relates to the current GOP purge agenda to depopulate the planet, thereby leaving all resources for the elite to enjoy by dispensing with the rest of us. So here's a vintage SO'W post from 2012 including links that may or may not be secure so obviously you would not type in any personal data or order anything from the site. However, if you're curious about such topics which affect us all, see Another Pope Calling for World Government and a New World Order (2012 = Pope Benedict). The aforementioned Prison Planet link is included in the post.

Capricorn: Government, Law, Business

And so on a symbolic level, the July 10th Full Moon culminates or fulfills something specific that was planned or put in motion at or around the previous New Moon (4Can08) of June 25th conjunct America's 1776 Jupiter (5:56) so that the July 4, 2025 signing by Tr*mp of the Big ___ Bill, making 2017's massive tax breaks for billionaires permanent while forcing millions of the American people into financial penury and causing the loss of health insurance, food assistance for the needy, and hospitals to close - reveals the Bill's true character as a reverse Robin Hood strategy to transfer wealth upwards.

Obviously, the current crop of economic royalists and neo-Naz*s give new meaning to US Jupiter's Sabian Symbol (6 Cancer): "Game Birds Feathering Their Nest." And boy have they, more than ever before!

Full Moon = Uran-Nept: shared upsets, conflicts; illusions and deceptions

Now here's a link to a DC Horoscope showing the third of three *Uranus-Neptune Conjunctions with the pair's energies described as markers of a "New World Order" which is nothing if not a new financial order. And it seems worth a reminder that current events and reforms have been in the planning stages for many years as we watch their implementation now in 2025 and beyond, by their purge agenda and all. Well planned, fully funded, these sinister operatives of a death cult (as in the 1930s and 1940s) are being unmasked as I type so thanks for reading if you made it this far.

And if we wonder based on Eclipses what years 2025--2027 correspond to in the 1930s, that would be 1935 into 1937. You may also wish to also check out Events of 1936 since history does tend to rhyme.

Concerning these topics, additional consideration might be warranted regarding the carvings on the now-defunct Georgia Guidestones which counseled limiting the global population. Curiously, the monument was blown to smithereens by "unknown" vandals on July 6, 2022 - tomorrow being the third anniversary of their destruction.

A Post to Inform Those Who Appreciate Such Information

And so in closing, we can gain a general idea of the future Uranian energies that will run in the background of society, disrupting earthly events and/or changing their courses, by checking out a list of the Eclipses of 2026 and 2027, solar eclipse themes included. One solar eclipse in particular is of long duration which may be translated into years of influence (7:51) with its themes melding into the themes of future eclipses for the next 7+ years.

Mega-Bill passes at US Solar and Jupiter Returns 2025

"Game Birds Feathered Their Nests" Big Time Today!

by Jude Cowell, partisan for the common good

Well, I don't know about you, dear reader, but this has been an unusually exhausting week as Congress members voted on Tr*mp's "Mega-Bill." By now you know that Republicans reached their goal earlier today voting between 2:07 and 2:27 pm edt to pass the monstrosity with the obliging Libra Moon rising and millions of lives on the line. Thing is, the obliging was to please Mr. T, and to satiate his wealthy donors and enablers - and not for We the People at all. If we ever had any doubt, America is now officially Plutocrats-Are-Us.

What a 249th Birthday Gift for America the Mega-Bill will be!

So here you see a dual image of US Solar Return 2025 (lower left) and US Jupiter Return 2025 (upper right) - perfecting within hours of each other. Abundant astro-notes are penned on for the curious reader, but I'm really too wumped out to type it for you in a text right now so please make of the Return charts what you can:

Trump’s Mega Bill: Medicaid Cut to Fund Billionaire Donor Welfare - David Cay Johnston

If SO'W readers wish, they can find expert information from investigative journalist David Cay Johnston who has studied and written for years about the crimes of Mr. T:

In case this video is removed, here's a link to it on The Mark Thompson Show channel.

Reader Alert: some of the following information may not be suitable for all readers. jc

But for the curious reader, here's a link to a post written and published on the very day that Mr. T signed the massive GOP corporate welfare bill on December 22, 2017. This is the bill he's desperate to extend through the passage of the "Big Fugly Bill" of July 2025 which will take away Medicaid and other life saving programs from the American people in order to facilitate a massive wealth transfer upwards.

However, sly dogs as they are, the carnage really begins after the 2026 Midterms so as not to affect potential GOP voters (if elections are held at all). By then voters will forget that some pundits are now calling the legislative abomination Mr. T's "murder bill" and the words "genocide of the masses" come to mind along with their 2025 Purge agenda which we've discussed here in prior posts.

Then let's remember Mr. T's revealing 12th house midpoint picture lodged within his Unconscious: Pluto = Mars-Saturn (the death axis) with its deaths of many people potential, according to Reinhold Ebertin.

So with Mr. T and his Maga comrades in Congress determined to deal a death blow to millions of Americans, it seems significant to yours truly that The Great American Eclipse of August 21, 2017 @29Leo landed, not just upon the orange blighter's natal Ascendant/Mars/Apollo/Regulus grouping with his Saturn-Neptune midpoint rising, but also upon Medicare-Medicaid's 1965 Mercury, planet of bills, agreements, contracts, and those who vote for them. You'll remember that the eclipse Path of Totality in 2017 (1 North) split our country from the West Coast of Oregon to the East Coast of South Carolina.

So to close this fussy post, here's a little sashay down memory lane:

1 North themes: "Unexpected events place pressure on relationships and issues loom large; make no hasty decisions because information is distorted and possibly false; tiredness and health problems are attached to this eclipse" (paraphrasing B. Brady's Predictive Astrology #ad).

Possibly?

Senate Passes Destructive Trump Bill 2025

You Weren't Using That Health Insurance Were You?

by Jude Cowell, partisan for the common good

By now everyone has heard of the US Senate passing Tr*mp's Big Fugly Bill earlier today so this will be a quick posting of the 119th Congress Horoscope (Jan 3, 2025; inner) surrounded by today's speculatively timed Horoscope set for the Rising of the Virgo Moon (12:16:34 pm edt) @28Virgo: "A Bald-Headed Man Dominates a Gathering of National Figures" (wonder who?). That's Virgo, sign of health and employment.

Added will be Dane Rudhyar's details concerning this degree below the image along with a dual chart showing voting Mercury's upcoming Retrograde and Direct Stations (July and August 2025) in Leo.

We may expect that Mercury's path in July and August will echo the 'Fugly Bill's path' as well since the legislation must now be sent to the House to be reconciled for final passage before the Leonine Mr. T can sign it - he hopes by July 4th or thereafter.

Well, perhaps this won't be over until its over. Today Senate Minority leader Chuck Schumer says Democrats will continue fighting against the bill's provisions in July, August, and onward.

Significant in relation to this financial topic is the Midheaven degree and its Symbol for "28Gemini" = "BANKRUPTCY." Is this bill part of the Republican goal (MC) to cause America to go bankrupt? Or to "avoid" it by making cuts that cause hardship for The People while economic royalists are richly rewarded?

See what you think:

Moon rising @28Virgo: "A Bald-Headed Man Dominates--" = "THE POWER OF THE WILL - divine, executively human, or Satanic" (An Astrological Mandala, Rudhyar, #ad). He adds, "traumatic decisions are made."

(Voting) Mercury Stations July-August 2025 including a note about The Messenger reaching and passing its shadow degree (@15Leo34) on August 25, 2025 with wounded healer Chiron at Midheaven:

Nov 2025 New Moon: Stars and Fog

"Almost" a Star of David

by Jude Cowell, partisan for a Common Good America

Here you see the DC Horoscope of the November 20, 2025 Scorpio New Moon @28Sco11:54 so the lunation is basically a Birthday New Moon for former President Joe Biden, and it's much more besides:

Due to time contraints on this Friday afternoon, I must let my scribbled astro-notes on the chart speak for themselves although publishing future posts concerning the November 2025 New Moon cannot be ruled out.

One reason is because of current events in the Middle East and Mr. T's interference in them coupled by the fact that the horoscope above shows multiple planetary patterns including an "almost" Star of David pattern which, when qualified, is known as a "war star."

However, the two triangles (trines) you see (highlighted in red - one pointing upward toward Heaven, the other downward toward Earth) do not technically form a "Star of David," if memory serves, and so I refer you to the expert astrologer who first introduced me to the intriguing pattern during our phone consultation Mary Fortier Shea.

Yet I would be remiss not to mention two of the above planets affecting the Pentagon 1942 Horoscope and thus our nation, for they are significant: 2025 Pluto opposing 1942 Pluto (a no-compromise power struggle), and America's "death star" (pentagram: the Pentagon) now in process of having its first-ever Uranus Return (unorthodox behavior). This is not comforting, I agree - especially with the rebellious Uranus-Pluto pair now conjunct Aries Point of World Events via their midpoint (7th house), and transit Neptune once again @29Pisces, a critical degree, and conjunct the star of extreme misfortune, Scheat.

Now to close this consarned fuss: when it comes to the uncertainties of war, it's always a good idea to remember America's 1776 Mars-Neptune square so here's a TMA post by Mary Plumb regarding the baked-in square's energies and its unfortunate possibility of forecasting the "fog of war".
