Does an Ancient Eclipse Link to Trump and the 1/6 Revolt?
by Jude Cowell
As a Saturnian astrologer fond of the phrase "history rhymes" via similarly repeating events rather than "history repeats" precisely, it has come to my attention during a review of my previous research concerning Masonic Grand Commander Albert Pike that the 'MAGA Mob Attack', aka, Trump's Insurrection of January 6, 2021 meant to retain power by overthrowing the US government, contains a whiff or two, possibly an echo - of the ancient Third Servile War of escaped gladiator slaves who battled against the Roman Empire beginning in 073 B.C. in Capua, Italy.
Escaping from the Capuan Gladiator School using kitchen implements ("choppers and spits") due to the betrayal of their plot, a group of slaves, over 70-strong but soon growing, managed to escape from captivity and a two-year revolt was enjoined as they roamed, raided, and pillaged the land. Once freed, three military leaders had been chosen by the group (a militia?), one of which was the slave gladiator famously known as Spartacus.
However, the revolt, which some historians have called a "civil war" intended to capture the city of Rome, ended for the slave-army in total defeat and approximately 11,000 of the revolt's survivors were crucified, all or thousands of them along the Appian Way.
Meanwhile in our day, Herr Trump demands freedom from a duly elected government and is already in process of mounting another challenge to governmental authority meant to re-grasp the reins of power any way he can - unless The Empire prevents and defeats him. Menacingly stirring the simmering pot of insurrection as it nears the boiling point, Trump's incendiary remarks during a recent rally have the Georgia Prosecutor Asking the FBI for Security Help as the flight risk 'teases' a POTUS run in 2024 and promises his insurrectionists 'pardons' (which may never be granted - he's not known for follow-through, and will promise anything in the moment in order to achieve his purpose: suckers!).
The Servile War Saturn and Total Eclipse of 073 BC with the 4 South Eclipse of December 14, 2020
Now admittedly I possess no thematic information concerning the Solar Eclipse of 073 BC as being a member of the 4 South Saros Series (4S themes are penned on the chart - its initial eclipse occurred April 17, 1624 @28Aries - see lower right corner) but what I'm noting here are cosmic time links such as Sun-Moon-Uranus in 073 BC as an echo of the 2022 Midterms Lunar Eclipse in Taurus conjunct Uranus (the "swords vs torches" eclipse), and the fact that 073 BC Saturn Rx @23Sag34, acts as the handle of a Sling shape (like a Bucket but more concentrated) and this denotes the leader of the concentrated planetary energies (actors) directed upon a specific goal (freedom! overthrowing the empire!). Authoritative Saturn's leadership is modified by the Mars-Jupiter Conjunction in Leo which sesqui-squares Saturn so might 073 BC Saturn represent Spartacus while Mars and Jupiter = the other two leaders of the revolt? (Sun-ruled Leo = ego and pride, and Jupiter-ruled Sagittarius = the freedom to range far and wide). Of course, in reality, an actual sling as a weapon reminds us of the small David battling a huge Goliath, yes? Karmic lessons apply.
A Taurus Eclipse Requires a Firm Stand Against Obstacles
My suspicion is that the 073 BC Solar Eclipse @14Tau15 conjunct radical Uranus influenced the Third Servile War (as the first eclipse of the year), an insurrection against the Roman Empire and Army, and that perhaps the eclipse's ancient Saturnian and Taurean energies have been triggered or activated by the difficult 4 South Solar Eclipse of December 14, 2020 @23Sag08 and by zealous Uranus, once again in Taurus. Plus, there are other planetary contacts (ex: 073 BC Venus conjoined by 2021 Mars at a critical 29th degree) with potentials for violent activities by folks who are prodded into taking action without fully understanding the severity of the consequences. Sound familiar?
Yes, slavery is tied up with the 073 BC Eclipse in mid-Taurus, but in the US such vile conditions now rhyme rather than precisely repeating - even though its evil effects continue to haunt us. Yet perhaps we may agree that a case can be made for citing the economic slavery of Predatory Capitalism within American Plutocracy, and for the lucrative trafficking and abuse of human beings being perpetrated in the shadows. Modern society remains encumbered by karmic conditions which must be confronted and dealt with. And as is often said, it's about time, sealed fate notwithstanding.
Then as we see rising in 1st house, 073 BC Neptune @8Gem50 was conjoined in July 1776 by US Uranus (8:55), a planet of freedom, independence, war, and revolt. Such a transit signifies a period when demented Neptunian ideals can mock issues of equality, personal freedom, and what we now call civil rights, while expression of political and social ideals are frustrated; yet there are opportunities for deep insights into societal conditions emerging from the Collective Unconscious. Well, I think they emerged in 1776 and we'd do best in 2022 by continuing to coax them forward - sans governmental overthrow.
On The Nodal Axis of Fated Encounters with The Dragon
Quirkily enough, one karmic Nodal contact is the 073 BC South Node @23Tau06 conjunct puppet master Pluto (with 'Saturn-Pluto' vibes and disrupted social conditions), and both conjunct the natal Midheaven of Herr Trump where vicious star of rage and destruction, Algol, twinkles. Another contact is the Mars-Jupiter Conjunction at IC which conjoins what turned out to be America's 1776 Nodal Axis (6Leo/6AQ). And although undiscovered until 1930, one of the outer karmic planets in 073 BC, slow-moving Pluto, rises with Castor, star of 'crippled limbs, loss, and/or murder' (A. Louis).
Additionally, by using the Placidus house system as done here, we find that karmic conditions which must be dealt with are further identified by the Taurus-Scorpio polarity intercepted across the 6/12 victim-savior axis. Meanwhile, chart-ruler Mercury rising @27Tau59, planet of travel and trickery, makes no applying aspects in the eclipse chart so its sign and house placements are emphasized:
The above Horoscope of the first Solar Eclipse of 073 BC on May 8th, a Total Eclipse, closely mimics some of the planetary positions of our day (exs: Sun-Moon-Uranus in Taurus and Mercury-Pluto; 073 BC Pluto = 073 BC Uranus-Neptune: "The big picture demands a certain course of action; little option to do otherwise" - N. Tyl; this picture repeated by transit in 2017 as: 1993 Uranus-Neptune Conjunction @18Capricorn = 2017 Pluto). Included are other planetary contacts, aka, 'cosmic time links', with the 4 South Solar Eclipse of December 14, 2020 manifesting upon the very day of the Electoral College Vote that Herr Trump takes such great exception to and which he tries to ignore by spouting 'The Big Lie' in order to gaslight his followers into perpetrating his dirty work. (And sending him donations.)
And yet the December 14, 2020 4 South lunation occurred @23Sag08 - conjunct Inauguration 2017's 8th house Saturn which represents an 'eclipse' of Trumpian authority and control as revealed in the real world by the Electoral College Vote in favor of Joe Biden. With Trump's Inaugural Saturn eclipsed, accountability for his past lapses of responsibility and lack of authenticity while in office are demanded but instead of accepting Saturnian reality and owning up to his mistakes, he's been beefing about his (Saturnian) loss ever since. A notable lack of karmic progress challenges improvements in the US via 'leader' Trump as America's former representative.

its interesting that june 17,2020 was when jupiter returned to its position when 48 years republicans broke into watergate on jun 17th 1972,so it seems not only are repubs following neptune on its darkside,but jupiter as well,and wasn't the jun 1972 also when a group of minorities filed their lawsuit,against trump,and his father,and didn't fred cross path's with nixon,as nixon crossed paths with goldwater,when he turned the repubs from helpful to greedy for money,and power,since just recently here in wisconsin,the repubs who use trump's tried to create a law that would disolve milwaukee public school district which i group up in,into 8 smaller districts that would be for profit,and other trump type repubs,can think of,and this why detroit has gone down hill,since nefore democrats retook lansing the repubs trump style were draining everything out of cities in michigan under trump wannabe rick synder,and hopefully if biden's rebuild plan cities in states like michigan,and wisconsin especially their largest cities can be revived,but i gather st louis might root for cinnati in the 2022 super bowl,since stan shipped the rams to los angeles,and acts he didn't no wrong to st louis city,and county,at least got almost 800 million out of sta,but nothing him adding to his billions by buiding in los angeles,and its scary the price for just parking at so fi stadium is north of 300 dollars,and i found out the city of madison could build about 30 brand new condo buildings here in madison,wi,and that with add probably another 36000 people if some of the condo's are too believed,but these aren't hard working college students but their rich parents to town since most of these new condo's cost north of 300000 dollars to live in,so it seems madison progressive groups will be run over by trump type groups gravy train,so some of us might need a amazon fullfillment center not to just work in,but live in if some of us can,maybe we should try to stop trump groups gravy train in january 2025,since isn't that when the 2021 chaos at capitol mars returns,since its 4 years,and doesn't mars return about every 2 years,and since mars in january 2021 was crazy,imagine trumps group might be crazier next time mars returns from 2021,to bad like in a wealthy helpful cartoon of richie rich when he created a world for another culture to live on,we can't take all the greedy trump types ,and give them a world newer than ours so they can leave us alone,but then they might realize too much greed isn't good cause they might burn down the world we gave them,but maybe it might breed common sense in trump types,since then will see how pointless it is to fight each other over their world,not our world,but then it might create a sector of space that made the earth in the disney movie walle look good,since i feel this what trump types want turn our earth into,except it won't be in the distant future,but right now here if we don't show these trump types the error of their ways,but then we would have to get bezos,musk,and other rich types who to create space hotels to send trump,and his types,including bezos,musk if they want to go,but then it might takes us a next return to revive our earth,hopefully we find a way to slow down these rich greedy folks from keep running their gravy train across our planet,since i'm sure even guys like trump wonder what they do with all their need for money,since at somepoint how do you deal with multiple homes,and other stuff you've accumulated over the years,even guys like jp morgan realized at somepoint he had enough,and needed to give back,but i gather guys like trump are vaccuum cleaners that need to get every ounce of stuff,while the rest of us just want to be our most helpful,and realize we can't take it when we're gone,and appreciate what we have while we're are here.
