Once the Weimar Republic succumbed to a Psychopath

In Germany's Weimar Republic Horoscope of November 9, 1918, the government that Hitl*r took over as chancellor on January 30, 1933, a dynamic T-Square appears thanks to a Saturn-Uranus opposition squaring Mercury (making great demands on nervous energy - R. Ebertin). Of course, we know that in general, the Saturn-Uranus duo stands for restriction vs freedom, past vs future, old vs new, and/or politically, historically, and socially (and more the point of this post): old order vs new order.

Much tension is involved, and the potential is for bending to turn into breaking with this planetary combination which, in the 1918 horoscope falls across the self-willed Leo-Aquarius polarity of Fixed, rigid energies.

For the curious, here's a 3-minute Rick Steves video The Story of Fascism: Hitl*r's Rise to Power (my aster*sk).

Horoscope: 118th Congress January 3, 2023: two possible opening hours, Washington DC:

Similar to the Midterms 2022 Elections, the take-over of the German government in January 1933 was legally accomplished - with strong-arm implications behind the curtain if things didn't go Herr Adolf's way (a Tr*mp tactic as well). But as we know in retrospect, they did go the Austrian's way, and Adolf was able to cause the entire world to suffer. Now the world will suffer again if Adolf-loving forces and actors are allowed to coup the US government more fully than they've done already when they managed to finagle control of the US House of Representatives beginning January 3, 2023 (see above image).

Predictably, congressional Republicans wlll perform their Political Theater as a three-ring circus, a clown show full of off-kilter antics meant to disguise their own crimes and complicity, promoting malicious lies, and committing acts of revenge with their eventual objective to collapse the US Congress and government, to "own the libs," and, aided by corrupt, theocracy-loving Supreme Court justices under Vatican rule, to establish totalitarian rule. As for American law and tradition, this mostly 'conservative' Supreme Court is now tragically in need of even the most basic of ethics rules.

Meanwhile, perhaps we can agree that the destructive maga coup/storming of the Capitol Building on January 6, 2021 was Tr*mp's echo of the Reichstag Fire for it all but mimicked the burning of Germany's parliamentary Reischstag building. Notably, Hitl*r's false flag event in February 1933 came just days after the Fascism Rising Solar Eclipse.

Significant to the future of America is that a Solar Eclipse in the 7 North Series will manifest in our era as well - on April 20, 2023 @30Aries, which qualifies as a belated birthday eclipse for a long-gone Herr Hitl*r, but also must serve as a forewarned-is-forearmed signal from the Universe for all pro-democracy folks.

Talk about a cosmic time link of sinister proportions: this will be it.

The Solar Eclipse that influences all US Presidential Elections

George Washington by John Trumbull, Public domain, via Wikimedia Commons

by Jude Cowell, A Child of the Revolution

As you know, January 7, 1789 is the date that Congress required states to choose their electors for our country's first-ever presidential election. A month later on February 4th, George Washington was chosen by said state electors, then sworn into office on April 30, 1789 in New York City.

Of interest may be the Solar Eclipse Horoscope of the eclipse from the Saros Series in which these significant events occurred and were influenced by - the 7 North of November 27, 1788 @6Sag15, horoscope shown below.

Consequently, on that November day in 1788, fixed star Antares, a headstrong warrior star which can bestow honor (aka, The Watcher of the West) was 'eclipsed' which strengthens both the eclipse and the star. The eclipse degree's rounded-up Sabian Symbol of '7 Sagittarius' = "Cupid Knocking At the Door"; keyword: ALLUREMENT, which positively speaks of "enlarged experience," and negatively indicates: "self-exaltation and unbridled desire." Disagree if you wish, but to me this relates to America's vast appetite for such endeavors as territorial conquest and expansion, pursuing extreme wealth, plus, other indications of imperialism.

And with asteroid Cupido conjunct the Goal Point of the eclipse chart ('MC'), corporatism is on the agenda of our founding plutocrats (corporatism is what brought us to this continent, after all). Yet with corporate charters no longer expiring as they did in olden days, perhaps we can agree that the appetite of America's style of predatory corporatism has gotten completely out of control through the centuries like a parasite consuming its host. In fact, the much touted American consumerism has created a wealthy elite class but for the 99%, the Plutocratic path of exploitation of the masses has led We the People to a quagmire of loss and the tragic realization that what we're left with is an empty, so-called "American dream." Plutocrats made their fortunes off our backs, but now they're done with us like the corporatists in a badly written Ayn Rand novel.

Besides, they have better places to be than a hollowed out America - and fancy rocket ships to ride on!

So below is the 7 North Horoscope of November 27, 1788 which on a sublimal level, influences all US presidential elections, plus, a partial list of other instances of 7 North Eclipses is penned on: the initial 7 North of October 2/3, 1103 @15Lib29 (conjunct US 1776 Saturn), the 'Fascism Rising' Eclipse of February 24, 1933 @5Pisces28 (conjunct 1788 Saturn @4Pis34, 12th house), and the upcoming 7 North Eclipse arriving on April 20, 2023 @30Aries (Herr Adolf's "birthday eclipse" of 2023: a forewarning):

So am I attempting to implicate George Washington as a vintage version of a fascist or a Nazi from way back? Certainly not. But the repetition of 7 North Solar Eclipse themes of "very deep, long-hidden passion that takes people by surprise" and "lust" - to which I must add "blood lust" because of current actions and threats by thugs and barbarians of the Republican-Tr*mp Party - suggests that there are other ways to express 7 North themes, collectively or personally, than simply using primal violence against one's fellow citizens. For as with everything on Earth, motivation is the guiding factor for actions taken, and during our country's Revolutionary era, the presence of warmongering Antares conjunct the 7 North solar eclipse made sense for the purposes of gaining independence from Britain and establishing self-governance, a beacon of hope for the entire world.

But these days, their negative motivations turn seditious acts against the American people and the US government into treason committed by power-hungry hooligans with anti-societal intentions and overlaid with forms of fake "Christianity" that 'enjoys' a death cult mentality in which "blood lust" has gained an obsessive hold. And strangely enough, their deluded version of reality is a nightmarish dream for the rest of humanity.

A related link of historical proportions: Timeline of the American Revolution where you'll find events of 1788 and 1789 near the end of the list detailing states ratifying the US Constitution. In other words, primary events included joining the union, not splitting it apart.

And for the curious, here's a link to the horoscope of George Washington's Inauguration of 1789.

Inauguration 1789, President Biden, and Eclipses

Astro-Thoughts on the US Presidency: 1789 and Beyond

by Jude Cowell

America's first official Oath of Office for the presidency occurred on April 30, 1789 in New York City. As you know, the 1st Oath was taken by a popular fellow, General George Washington, and his Oath-taking on that day creates our nation's archetypal model for the US Presidency. Here you see the 1st Oath Horoscope set for 2:00 pm LMT (historical record) with Virgo rising, Gemini at Midheaven, both ruled by Mercury, planet of oaths and those who take them - here in pioneering Aries; several of President Joe Biden's natal placements are penned around the chart, such as 1789 North Node @28Scorpio pointing directly toward Biden's natal Venus-Sun:

Sun @10Tau46 (9th house), the leader, has been under the influence of the 6 North Solar Eclipse since April 2022 (@10Tau28) yet 6 North themes are in process of waning as the 6 South Eclipse @2Scorpio (October 25, 2022) takes over and a forceful power grab for control intensifies. (6 North themes are penned on the chart and highlighted in red.)

Meanwhile, 1789 Inauguration's Prenatal Solar Eclipse (@6Sag15) fell into the 7 North Saros Series with themes of 'deep passion long-hidden; lust' (B. Brady) to which I've been compelled to add "blood lust" due to 7 North's repetition in April 2023 and because of the current crop of saboteurs and faithless traitors desperate to coup the US government and enforce authoritarianism and Utopian zealotry upon the American people, thus deleting George Washington's democratic Republic from the world stage of leadership. Or so they wish.

(By 'Utopian zealotry', I refer to their determination to rid America of the rule of law so that a free-for-all cowboy-style 'Old West' manner of living (dying) is established, brutal and cruel, with everyone "locked and loaded" for a shoot out.) Have you ever noticed that the NRA Horoscope of 1871 contains a Mars-Saturn Conjunction in Capricorn, the 'death axis' pair of planets? So many profits to be made by promoting death!

As for eclipses and the US presidency, we know that all eclipses act as Uranian 'wild cards of the Universe' and 'cosmic blinks' which suggests the unpredictability of their effects. Disruption we know, change of course may be forthcoming, perhaps even Earth shifts or weather events, yet sometimes the themes of a particular series don't have as strong an effect upon circumstances as the fact that an eclipse manifests upon a certain planet, star, or point in a horoscope. Naturally, total eclipses are the strongest actors and in similar fashion to planet Uranus, eclipses may act early, on time, late, or never with a multitude of factors mitigating and/or supporting their energies and power.

That said, I suspect that most SO'W readers would agree that 6 North themes (ex: 'relationship to authority figures') have affected the US presidency, a role which, at this time, happens to be inhabited by Joseph R. Biden. And I'll simply say that his maturity and experience have been appreciated after our country's previous roller coaster ride of misrule and criminality led by the orange scofflaw.

So hopefully, this post and horoscope are useful to you, dear reader, and that you will join me in my plan to Vote Blue in November 2022 and 2024 so that our democratic Republic can weather the current political and ideological storms brought by fascist/nazi types of violent criminals. Because the world has tried that barbaric form of government during the 1920s to 1940s decades and found it sorely lacking. What say we not try it again.

Warnock-Walker Debate set for October 14, 2022

Jnn13, CC BY-SA 3.0 , via Wikimedia Commons

Unless Plans Fall Through, a Warnock-Walker Debate! (*BYOP)

A while back we discussed on SO'W the natal planets of Senator Raphael Warnock as he and Jon Ossof ran for office in Georgia. Now it's 2022, the campaigns for the 2022 Midterms have heated up and there's been an announcement concerning Senator Warnnock's campaign: that scheduled for October 14, 2022 is a debate between the Democratic Senator and Republican candidate Herschel Walker who was quite the football star years ago when I lived in my hometown of Athens, Georgia home of the University of Georgia. On October 14th, the Moon will be in Mercurial Gemini with Luna's sign describing the public mood so Gemini can be a live-wire, chatty Moon with good news or can be duplicitous, vacillating, or, of-two-minds.

With Their Wide Intellectual Gap Will a Floor Be Mopped?

Sadly for the US election process, Walker's know-nothing condition (with his gaffes, uninformed opinions, etc) seems to have improved little if any through the years, and in fact, may have grown worse, political classes and telepromptors notwithstanding. But it should be considered that Mr. Walker has been said to suffer from Dissociative Identity Disorder and has been known to tell a lie or two, plus expressing other untoward behavior. Afraid of the dark, he says, he prevaricates to deal with fear, an escapist tactic, and with natal planets in Pisces, including his Sun-Chiron conjunction, a mentor is a must for Walker. He has stated that Donald Trump is his mentor (Trump was owner of the New Jersey team that Walker had played for, among others) so we know where we stand on that score.

As for cosmic factors, there are Two Karmic Eclipses Affecting 2022 Midterms, one a Taurus Lunar Eclipse conjunct Uranus on the day of the 2022 Midterms. The October 25th Solar Eclipse therein falls within the 7 North Saros Series which happens to be the Prenatal Solar Eclipse Series in which Raphael Warnock was born. Now as you know, all eclipses are Uranian and can disrupt events on Earth and uncover hidden secrets. Leakage is also a potential.

Yet eclipses can also shine a cosmic spotlight upon those they favor, so my hope is that Senator Warnock will benefit from the repetition of his very own Solar Eclipse prior to the Midterm Elections, because if so, democracy in America will also benefit.

Vote Blue Everybody!

The Dangerous Eclipses of 2023

September 8, 2022

by Jude Cowell

Below you see a mocked-up image of the Solar and Lunar Eclipses of year 1933 and year 2023. As you see, the dangerous, even sinister, Solar Eclipses of 1933 repeat in 2023 in the 7 North and 7 South Saros Series; their Themes are also listed along with other years in which 7 North and 7 South eclipses occurred. Historical events of those years make interesting reads.

So will this be my final forewarned-is-forearmed post of warning concerning the neo fascist/nazi global network of criminals planning once again a take-over of America after failing in their attempt against FDR in 1933?

Since I'm a pro-democracy American with Revolutionary War ancestry and uncles who fought nazis in Europe during WWII, it most definitely is not:

Autumn EQ 2022 w/ Uranus-NN Politics

by Jude Cowell

July 25, 2022

As we learned near the conclusion of the July 21st J6 Hearing (horoscope shown), the J6 Select Committee to investigate scofflaw seditionist Trump are planning to hold additional J6 Public Hearings come September due to an abundance of new information. This time frame on a cosmic level naturally spotlights Autumn Equinox 2022, the DC Horoscope of which may be viewed here.

Have a peek at the chart if you haven't, because a stark image of the July 31, 2022 conjunction of rebel planet of anarchy Uranus conjunct the North Node of destiny precisely rises in the September 2022 horoscope. Sudden new associations and/or upsetting events are indicated when this pair conjoins the Ascendant which suggests such potentials for the Autumn season. Unexpected changes, radical reforms, and riots or revolutions to effect such changes are some of the possibilities.

Then by itself, here's a view of the July 31, 2022 Uranus-North-Node Conjunction set for Washington DC; lots of my study notes for the curious reader are squooshed upon the chart. As you see, precedence is given to CUPIDO: 'The Family' and Corporatism - one suggesting the bizarre religious group that wags the tails of DC politicians - plus, The Syndicate which denotes international banking houses and organized crime networks - the other, bribing and paying off politicians to act against the American people and our needs; note that the Sabian Symbol of the Virgo Moon = "A Family Tree" which also hints at intermarriages and inbreeding within banking, royal, and other wealthy families (one result: the deformed Hapsburg Jaw):

And below is the cuss'ed Civil War's 7 North w/ the 7 North Eclipse of April 2023:

Now it's true that I've fussed here on SO'W in plenty of posts and elsewhere about the reformist implications of the 'radical reactionary' Uranus-NN combination, but I'm doing so again since the pairing is basically being shoved in our faces these days of extreme zealotry by a caring Cosmos. Certainly it's a timing issue, with the duo containing something worth paying attention to, as meetings (NN) with unusual, erratic, or upsetting individuals (Uranus) increase within the Collective (you know who I mean). Why, even astrologers or new age promoters may turn up here or there!

Eclipses: Wild Cards and 'Cosmic Blinks' (paper collage)

Meanwhile, it seems as if the October 25, 2022 6 South Solar Eclipse and the April 20, 2023 7 North Solar Eclipse (shown as dual charts, above) hitting our fractured society with more Uranian 'Culture War' wedge issues and propaganda may act like punches in the jaws of Constitutional Government, democracy, and human rights (7 North is the same series that brought the seditionists' 1861 Civil War, eclipse chart, above). For we know that all eclipses are Uranian in nature for their ability to disrupt events, trigger scandals, suddenly reveal secrets, or even cause complete changes in the course of human events. In October 2022, it's a repeat of the 6 South Eclipse as on August 31, 1932 @8Virgo, what I term the "Nazis Rise to Power" Eclipse, while the 7 North Eclipse of April 2023 repeats from February 1932, what I've been compelled to label the Fascism Rising Eclipse (@5Pisces). These difficult cosmic energies describe the period from 2022 into 2023, their themes running in the background of society. As Above, So Below.

So can the erratic Uranian implications of the two eclipses be any clearer?

Not that history will repeat precisely in 2022 to 2023, for only neo-nazis and fascists prefer current events to repeat as in those horrific days when Hitlerian psychopaths ran amok. But wait - they're running amok as I type! For another cosmic signpost showing up at a crossroad on America's path is that the Midterms 2022 Lunar Eclipse @16Tau01 conjunct radical reactionary planet Uranus triggers the passionate Venus-Mars conjunction of the Austrian psychopath: midpoint picture = "erratic shows of anger; a need for independence" (Munkasey). And in Politics or Business, "satisfaction from fighting or recklessness" is part of the Venus-Mars duo.

So after decades of preparation and increased funding, scofflaw seditionists are determined to fulfill the threat of a vile authoritarian dystopia for America, because after the US succumbs, they figure that the whole world will tumble under their evil spell once the global model for democracy and freedom is ruined for all, its glow of inspiration and hope dimmed and whimpering. Similar to H*tler's dream of building Germania, it's their vision of a One World Government! However, only the persistent rejection through word and deed of the 1930s/40s model of brutality will be sufficient as a Blue Tsunami of voters must show up to Vote in November 2022 and November 2024.

And yes, US election days may be "wild" - but Be There!

Inauguration 1953: A Prayer for America

Reaching Back for a Better America

by Jude Cowell

As my fellow Americans and I face Independence Day 2022 with less constitutionally granted independence and freedom than before due to an overreaching Supreme Court, a tribute to a certain American Republican president might actually be appropriate for the July 4th holiday:

On January 20, 1953, Dwight D. Eisenhower was sworn in as our 34th president. Instead of one Bible for his Oath of Office, two Bibles were used: George Washington's Masonic Bible from 1789, some say turned to II Chronicles 7:14 (disputed), and President Eisenhower's own "West Point Bible" turned to Psalms 33:12. Eisenhower then gave his own Prayer and delivered his Inaugural Address. At his 1953 Inauguration, 'Ike' sounds like an actual American, and a listen of his 1953 address is recommended, if you can spare a few minutes.

Then recently, progressive broadcaster-author Thom Hartmann commented that in his opinion, Dwight Eisenhower was the last Republican president who believed in democracy. In fact, Eisenhower's 1953 Inaugural Address is a bracing tonic for those of us determined to fight against the authoritarian wave of lies, deceit, cruelty, and strong-armed paternalism now sweeping across America (Vote Blue in 2022 - and 2024!) and gaining hoofholds around the globe. Among others, Eisenhower's mentions of concepts such as "moral stamina" and "love of liberty" remind us of the America that, struggling toward a perfect union, we want to keep. Yet if our country must regress, let it be to these and other higher concepts and principles, such as President Lincoln's "better angels of our nature" - while leaving behind the racism and hatred of by-gone eras for those are what degrade and doom our nation to the ashbin of History. And anyone who promotes such negativity are enemy saboteurs of America, many disguised as "patriots." Yet as you know, dear reader, using religion to gain and wield political power is precisely what America's Founders feared!

So for the astro-curious, here's a view of the natal horoscope of Dwight David Eisenhower, born October 14, 1890. His chart shows Sun, Moon, Mercury, and Uranus in Libra, warrior Mars @13Cap39 (directly opposing US Sun of July 4, 1776), Jupiter @2AQ44, Saturn @12Vir39, Virgo rising, Gemini at Midheaven, and of course, the Neptune-Pluto Conjunction in early degrees of Gemini - at Midheaven with his 10th house North Node @17Gemini. Yes, the Neptune-Pluto duo can be bad news in the criminality and occult realms but for evolved individuals receptive to such influences, their combined energies can provide self-knowledge and a refined spiritual understanding (A. Oken). Then notably, in the realms of Politics, Ike's Libran Uranus can express and behave as a troublemaker, and/or as one whose reforms are in the interests of the public. A WWII General, perhaps his Uranian behavior was a case of alternating expressions!

Now at the risk of seeming to be sympatico with the current evangelical, Family-run, Opus Dei, Dominionist, theocratic bizarros sticking their camel's nose under the tent of liberty, privacy and other rights (with whom I am non-sympatico) while they set about stirring a noxious brew of church and state, let's consider the Scriptural messages that President Eisenhower spotlighted that day in 1953 as he began his presidency and prayed for America:

II Chronicles 7:14, our Creator's promise to heal the land of His people who turn from wickedness and seek Him. And here I'll quote Psalms 33:12 (KJV): "Blessed is the nation whose God is the Lord; and the people whom He hath chosen for His own."

Well, to me this means that genuine spiritual renewal is needed across our nation but I must suppose that the current batch of holier-than-thous think they're the people referred to here. Yet through willful blindness, or their lack of genuine spirtual understanding, they leave out empathy for humanity, and show cruelty which negates any claim to such a worthy status that they might have had. Why, they act, legislate, and pronounce from on high as if they've never read the New Testament at all! And yes, we're all on paths to greater understanding (ye olde "God's not through with me yet") but the paths that theocrats trod seem darker than one would hope for leaders of our country - and We The People are expected to follow! Instead, their riding roughshod over the majority's wishes feels more of a return to Benito's Fascism or Adolf's Nazism, and those would be very dark paths indeed.

Therefore, in honor of the recent revelation of ketchup dripping down a White House wall (so in the news these days), here's a brief video clip from Mary Trump in case you missed it: Why Donald Trump Throws Food: An Origin Story - It's All About the Mash Potatoes!

So hopefully we can agree that POTUS #34 is a major contrast to man-baby POTUS #45. And to me, the contrast represents a sad symbol of how America and the White House have come down in the world. How much President Biden can elevate the country and the White House remains to be seen. But undermining his efforts at improvment is not in our country's, or in democracy's, best interests.

History Of GOP Slide To Fascism: From Eisenhower To DeSantis - Thom Hartmann

July 1, 2022

Here's an important segment from a recent Thom Hartmann broadcast:

You know, on Aril 20, 2023 the 7 North Fascism Rising Solar Eclipse cycle repeats, and since eclipse cycles and historical cycles resonate one with the other (an eclipse often bringing around similar events - this, from 1933 to 2023) the disruptive Uranian 'cosmic blink' event repeating in our day is a major heads-up in the forewarned-is-forearmed department for those who prefer democracy.

So here's a view of the April 2023 Eclipse Horoscope at a critical 29th degree: 7 North and the Chained Woman. And I suspect we might all agree that with the Supreme Court's recent Handmaidish ruling, the chaining of the feminine half of the population has already begun.

The Civil War's Solar Eclipse soon repeats

The 7 North Saros Series of Solar Eclipses have brought the world difficult, even violent, events such as the Civil War of 1861 (Charleston SC Horoscope shown, below, upper right) and the 7 North Eclipse which manifested on February 23, 1933 as what I tend to call the 'Fascism Rising' Eclipse due to the violent, power-grabbing, take control actions of one Herr Hitl*r, pervert and failed dictator inspired by dreams too big to handle.

So nowadays the world has a new crop of fasc*st miscreants and criminals determined to rise again to power, and this time it's a global movement - better organized with more saboteurs placed in key government positions in the US and elsewhere, and more abundantly funded by a faithless corporate class of what must be Ayn Randers. They follow the 'Statism + Corporatism = Fascism' model in which Enlightenment principles of our Founders and We The People are outmoded concepts they intend to delete from society by any means necessary.

7 North: 1861-1933-2023

Now also shown in the dual image, lower left, is the coming 7 North Solar Eclipse of April 20, 2023 @29Ari50, the degree of belligerent Mars during Herr Tr*mp's January 6, 2021 coup attempt (basically a dress rehearsal). As you see, the April 2023 7 North Horoscope is relocated to Charleston, SC for the sake of comparison although if set for Washington DC, very little difference occurs with house cusps (perhaps about one degree), however, Pluto @00AQ19 (conjunct US Inaugural Sun: it's all about power over others with starry Altair the Eagle there as well hinting at Roman Empire days) does cross into the 1st house in DC from its 2nd house position in Charleston, as you see here:

Actually, we've previously discussed the Fascism Rising Eclipse of 1933 (Berlin Horoscope shown) back in 2020. Significant is the fact that transit Saturn will exactly conjunct the 1933 Eclipse @5Pis28 three times in 2023 and 2024: 1. May 1, 2023; 2. August 4, 2023; and 3. January 23, 2024 with 2024 being a presidential election year, as you know. Saturn conjunct the eclipse suggests those with the responsibility to carry out the themes of the eclipse with 7 North themes of 'deep passion, long hidden takes people by surprise' and 'lust' (to which I must add 'blood lust' due to our current circumstances and the saboteurs so excited about fomenting a second Civil War in the US, grabbing power, and casting our nation back into the 1850s days of slavery. As for karmic Saturn in Pisces, this placement denotes potentials for: 'struggles with opponents, secluded work, and/or depression (R. Ebertin).

So for now I'll hush about this disturbing topic, but as usual, my feeling is that forewarned is forearmed - because the enemies of America are aligned and organized.

Therefore, lovers of American Democracy, freedom, and a civilized society must be aligned and organized, too.

On the Solar Eclipse of Tucker Carlson

March 17, 2022

by Jude Cowell

The natal horoscope of Fox News personality Tucker McNear Carlson overflows with enraged Algol influences - spotlighted by his natal Sun @25Tau38 which also conjoins Midas! - and with a Taurus Moon conjunct fixed star Alcyone ('something to cry about'). No, Carlson's natal chart is not appearing here today because - well, because I don't want it here. His Sun-Midas conjunction to me implies that his life's goal (Sun) is to acquire the gold of Midas, or to become a Midas figure. Obviously, the fellow was born that way. And also born with an unaspected Saturn which can indicate someone without a conscience. For strong political views and a tendency toward debate, we see his Mercury-Mars opposition across the Mercury-Jupiter Gemini-Sagittarius polarity of ethics which also indicates that he loves to hear the sound of his own voice (A. Oken). For Tucker, making mountains out of molehills is a talent, and his views can often flip-flop due to the opposition, plus, the Seesaw shape of his natal planets.

So with this post, let's make note of the fact that the 'PE' (Prenatal Solar Eclipse) Saros Series that baby Tucker was born into with influences that run in the background of his life, is the 7 North which perfected on March 18, 1969 @27Pis25 with themes of 'passion' and 'lust' (B. Brady), plus, a theme that unfortunately it seems fit to add due to current circumstances: bloodlust.

My point is, a 7 North Eclipse repeats on April 20, 2023 @29Aries50 (in Carlson's 10th house of Career and Public Standing - secrets revealed? a change of direction?). Meanwhile, a 7 North manifestation was, in February 1933, what I've been compelled to label the 'Fascism Rising Eclipse', primarily because the Reichstag Fire, Hitler's false flag op used to help justify his power grab of the German government and what was to come, occurred under the auspices of the 1933 manifestation of a 7 North Eclipse.

Forewarned Is Forearmed

So if such be-prepared topics interest you, I recommend a view of the Third Reich Horoscope of January 30, 1933 (Campion chart #126) showing 25Tau34 rising along with fixed star Algol and the Sun-Midas conjunction of Tucker Carlson, busy making his income by promoting totalitarianism on-air. And naturally, you'll also recognize the late degrees of possessive, sometimes intolerant Taurus as the natal Midheaven, the Goal Point, of one Herr Tr*mp where violent Algol twinkles maliciously with malevolent intent, as we've seen.

As for the erstwhile Fox News personality and shill-for-Putin, Tucker Carlson recently broadcasted his program from Orban's Hungary. So in closing, here's an excerpt from a previous post with the founding data for Hungary:

"Campion's The Book of World Horoscopes (#ad) provides two charts for 'Hungary': #149 November 13, 1918 12:00 CET Budapest; ASC 00AQ02; MC 28Sco05; and 'Hungary - Democratic' #150 set for October 23, 1989 12:00 CET Budapest; ASC 7Cap20; MC 8Sco18."

by Jude Cowell

Although the first Nazi Book Burning occurred earlier in May 1933, below is an updated Horoscope of the more famous event that occurred on the night of May 10, 1933 in front of the State Opera House, Bebelplatz, Berlin, Germany. Approximately 30,000 books were set alight including those of Freud, Marx, Hemingway, plus, books on Science, Philosophy, and more. Head Nazi propagandist Joseph Goebbels spoke at midnight, then bonfires were set in Berlin by members of the German Student Union as well as in multiple university towns across Germany - a campaign of censorship against ideas which were 'contrary' to Nazi ideology.

Highlighted in green, you'll see that natal placements of Joseph Goebbels are all over the event chart! Rising is his natal Scorpio Sun along with his other Scorpio planets, his natal Ascendant @1Leo42 has just crossed Midheaven ('MC' = The Goal: he and his ego are on full display), and the North Node of public contact @4Pis34 points toward his hellish Hades. If you wish, check out Goebbels' AA-rated natal horoscope here.

Please note that this post is being edited on Thursday August 25, 2022 and the above May 10, 1933 Horoscope is now set more accurately for 11:59:59 pm CET Berlin - and, for the purposes of this post - the 1933 Book Burning Horoscope is no longer surrounded by the event's Saturn Return Horoscope (Feb 2, 2022) @16AQ09 as in the original version of this post, but the event's Saturn Return is listed at the top of the horoscope.

A few factors not penned on the chart include: Jupiter at Station Direct (turned Direct 12H 39 M prior @13Vir17:24), the Moon is out-of-bounds of the earthly plane ('OOBs'), the infamous 'Marseillaise Trio' of violence (Mars-Neptune-Jupiter) is there in 10th house, and the dynamic T-Square of Mars-NN = Moon also contains another midpoint picture of significance:

Neptune-NN = Moon: 'lack of community spirit; cessation of an inner understanding between people' (R. Ebertin), an anti-societal tactic which we may agree describes a splitting or division of society and which Nazi ideology must have in order to successfully force itself upon a population. And please note that the event's 7 North Prenatal Solar Eclipse @5Pis28 (4th house) is what I've previously labeled the 'Fascism Rising Eclipse' - and a 7 North eclipse repeats on April 20, 2023 @30Aries.

1932 to 1937 Eclipses Repeat 2022 to 2028

Must America's Fight for Democracy Last Into 2028?

by Jude Cowell

January 12, 2022

Our fight continues!

And in the November 24, 2021 broadcast of the Thom Hartmann Show Thom expressed what to me, based in part on my studies of eclipse cycles, an interesting idea about something I'd never considered in exactly this way: that the Nazi influence in the United States from 1933 to 1937 was huge. And although I've published multiple SO'W posts concerning conditions and events of those years, both earthly and cosmic, you'll find more of such, below. Notably, previous posts have concerned solar eclipses and their themes which run in the background of society and influence historical events, a well known correlation in the As Above, So Below tradition.

So thanks to Thom's remark about the 'Nazi years' of 1933 to 1937 and how Nazi characters of that era affected the US and how they attempted to overthrow the FDR administration in 1933 (and thus, the US government - as on January 6, 2021), it seems to me that we should look at the themes of the August 31, 1932 6 South Eclipse all the way to the last eclipse of 1937 (and all eclipses in between: 1935 was a very eventful year; ex: Herr Adolf armed Germany in violation of the Versaillais Treaty of 1919) for a look can provide us with hints of similar events and conditions to expect in that 'history rhymes' kind of way as these eclipses repeat in our era.

For me this information falls into the 'forewarned is forearmed' category, and, disagree as you wish, dear reader, there it is. After all, who can deny the negative conditions of current events and faithless actors? Yet as Thom Hartmann always reminds us, Despair is not an option!

Solar Eclipses from February 1933 to December 1937

February 24, 1933 @5Pisces 7 North: 'Deep, long-hidden passions and lust suddenly catch people off-guard' (to this I must add, blood lust because it's a Nazi tactic for grabbing power, and remains an obsession of the predatory destructive spirit that roams the Earth.

December 2, 1937 @10Sagittarius 12 North: 'Opportunities to accept greater responsibilities and make new commitments due to another person's inability to carry on; initial events are difficult but outcomes can be positive'. (Can be. Motive is everything.)

7 North to 12 North (1933 to 1937 and 2023 to 2028)

So the concentrated time frame that Thom mentions begins with the 7 North Eclipse of 1933 @5Pisces, until the 12 North Eclipse of 1937. For us, the 7 North Saros Series recurs on April 20, 2023 @30Aries (Herr Adolf's 134th birthday) and January 26, 2028 (12N Eclipse @6Aquarius conjunct America's South Node of July 4, 1776, a separative, and possibly neurotic indication of past behavior which no longer suffices). See 12 North Eclipse, US South Node, Pluto, and Demeter for a view of 12 North's DC Horoscope.

Although not within Thom's time frame, there is also a 12 South Solar Eclipse in 2028 @'30Cancer' ("A Daughter of the American Revolution"!) on July 22, 2028 with themes of 'successful outcomes to longterm worries or illness' (an end to Covid? Perhaps, yet 12 South is the Prenatal Eclipse Saros Series of July 4, 1776 then @00Pis33 - and how synchronous that its Sabian Symbol in 2028 relates to the Revolution, and its themes affected the initial signing of the Declaration of Independence).

2022: Eclipses and a Midterm Elections Taurus Lunar Eclipse

Yet the two most obvious eclipses that form major signposts on the dystopian road to fascist-nazi authoritarianism in the US (and across the globe) must be the Nazi Rise to Power Eclipse repeating on October 25, 2022 @2Scorpio - problematically the Prenatal Eclipse ('PE') of Midterms 2022 (held the same day as a Lunar Eclipse in Taurus conjunct radical Uranus, planet of chaos, zealotry, and anarchy), and the Nazi Rise to Power Eclipse.

Yet special mention should be added about one solar eclipse in particular which occurred in 1937 - not the final one in 1937 but the Solar Eclipse of June 8, 1937 @18Gemini in the challenging 11 South Saros Series with its disturbing themes of 'ideas and methods fail, new systems are required in order to deal with events; any blocks could be tragically and violently removed'. And when does an 11 South eclipse repeat? On August 2, 2027 @10Leo - conjunct the orange mussolini's 12th house Pluto which is apex planet of his 'death axis' Mars-Saturn midpoint (R. Ebertin) with Plutonian potentials for 'murder' and 'piled up corpses'. Maybe he'll be the block that's removed!

Yet it seems in 2022 that Herrs Adolf and Tr*mp and their despotic ilk are like wads of nasty gum on the world's shoe that never wants to let go.

Then in closing, it would be remiss not to mention a previous post and horoscope concerning this authoritarian topic: The Big Brazen N*zi Rally of 1939 NYC. And which Eclipse Saros series did the rally occur within? The sinister 13 South with thematic potentials for constitutional crisis and/or striving for group endeavors, positively or negatively (B. Brady).

Solar Eclipses themes are paraphrased from Brady's Predictive Astrology (#ad).

Do You Have What It Takes To Fight Fascism? - Thom Hartmann

Here's a 6-minute segment from January 3, 2022 by progressive broadcaster and author Thom Hartmann with a serious question that should be on the minds of every pro-democracy, pro-Constitution American who demands that we keep our Republic:

Related SO'W Posts include:

March 23, 1919: Mussolini's Fascist Party (an Eclipse Timeline) which reveals the fact that Mussolini was declared "The Leader" (Il Duce) under the influences of a 17 South Solar Eclipse, the same eclipse series that brought us the "prez bid" announcement of dictator-wanna-be Donald Tr*mp, descending the Trump Tower escalator on the morning of June 16, 2015 (his "grand entrance") to speak to a paid-to-applaud audience ($50 each, the rumor goes);

Horoscope of the 7 North Fascism Rising Solar Eclipse of 1933; note that a 7 North Eclipse recurs on April 20, 2023 @30Aries: the Cosmos is warning us - what a 'coincidence', it's Herr Adolf's 134th birthday;

Nov 2022 Eclipse Hits Austrian Psychopath's Chart - this is the Midterms 2022 Lunar Eclipse in Taurus - conjunct radical zealot, the planet of unpredictability, and America's totem planet of revolt and independence, Uranus.

The 7 North Eclipse of 2023 and the Chained Woman

April 2023 Solar Eclipse "30 Aries" = "A Duck Pond and Its Brood"

by Jude Cowell

December 14, 2021

When a fixed star is conjoined by a Solar Eclipse, the star's expression is strengthened and brought into our Collective Consciousness so perhaps we should note that the repetition of a 7 North Solar Eclipse (the series that brought society the rise of Fascism in 1933 and the Civil War in the US, 1861) spotlights fixed star Mirach in the girdle of the Andromedae Contellation. The star's keyphrase, the Chained Woman, has certainly become an issue in our day via abortion rights, women's access to healthcare and birth control, religious teachings concerning what some call a "woman's place" in the home (ex: "barefoot and pregnant": a brood? a chastity belt?), physical abuse, sex trafficking, lack of access to education, even voting rights suppression, and other important social concerns between genders that are already in the news and being legislated by paternalistic authoritarians. Obviously, misogyny runs rampant and affects many of these issues so the self-pitying 'incel movement' is also involved.

Reciprocally, a fixed star-eclipse conjunction emphasizes the themes and effects of the eclipse as well for both are stronger when expressing together. This strenthened expression resonates with the ability of all eclipses to act as 'wild cards of the Universe' that can suddenly change directions of earthly events much as planet Uranus can do. Plus, you know that natural disasters may occur around the time of an eclipse with its Uranian vibrations yet thankfully, the 7N eclipse of 2023 is not a Total eclipse. Yay.

For more info concerning the star, see Earth and Sky's Mirach: Guide Star to Three Galaxies which includes the intriguingly named galaxy Mirach's Ghost.

However at the moment, my main concern is Herr H's ghost that now haunts about 1/3 of America's population with hate-filled dreams of what some call, 'glory'. Thing is, rational people know that those are a dictator's dreams of power and control propelled once again by the destructive spirit that roams the Earth in search of willing, mindless robots and bullies (often young people who don't remember the severe, cruel harm inflicted during the Fascist and Nazi eras) who intend to carry forth his hatred, brutality, and abuse toward humanity. In other words, the gullible, those with low self-esteem, are infected with Herr H's vile, devilish psychosis.

Brutal 'Inspiration' from the 1930s Creeps into the 2020s

Now in those days, Pluto was trudging through Cancer, cosmic signature of the magician, while now Pluto opposes Cancer as he creeps through Capricorn, a cosmic signature of 'the dictator' (says R. Ebertin). Yet it's possible that bad faith actors in our day may very well be aware of this cosmic timing so that Pluto in Capricorn implications partially inform whatever certainty of success many of them feel, or profess to feel. But their feelings won't make it so! Besides, as most folks know, A Fascist Plot in America Has Failed Before! and will be made to fail again.

So as you see, below is the DC Horoscope of the 7 North Solar Eclipse of April 20, 2023 @29Ari50 which conjuncts the position of the Moon on Inauguration Day 2021 plus, the eclipse conjuncts fixed star Mirach (with its 'chained woman' associations), as mentioned, above.

7 North themes = 'deep passion that takes people by surprise; lust' (B. Brady) to which I'll regretfully add, 'blood lust' because of past, current, and future circumstances aggravated by the global criminal network of mobsters now larger than in 1933 and trying to take control again - domestically in the US where they perceive that wrestling democracy to the mat will negatively affect all democracies worldwide.

Now as you see, by April 2023, transit Pluto @00AQ19 conjuncts US Inaugural Sun (@00AQ51 in Jan 2021 = Joe Biden - or on another level, the fantasy president?). This transit suggests potentials for power and abuse issues, an identity change or crisis, brutal suppression, and/or confinement of some kind (R. Ebertin). So if Pluto-to-Inaugural-Sun implies another attempt at a Tr*mp coup of power-grasping between now and April 2023, may the confinement be his.

We should also note in the DC Horoscope that the initial 7 North Eclipse of October 2, 1103 @15Lib29 sits atop the 2023 Eclipse's Goal Point (= Midheaven which makes the 2023 eclipse doubly karmic) so that Venus-ruled Libra (sign of ladies, goddesses, diplomacy, relationships) is the cosmic lens through which all subsequent 7 North eclipses must be viewed so that what we have before us in 2023 is a harmony vs disharmony Venus-Mars affair and what perhaps may be unfortunately described as a chained woman:

As usual, my study notes are penned upon the chart and color-coded for you.

American Revolution's Progressed New Moon July 2022

by Jude Cowell

Wednesday October 13, 2021: Now you've probably seen the Horoscope of the American Revolution of 1775 previously but here it is with a few modern-day cosmic happenings notated:

First, the 1775 Horoscope will symbolically progress ('SP' = Secondary Progressions) or evolve to an SP New Moon @00Cap41, a Cardinal World Point of Manifestation and Global Events, on July 8, 2022 (7:24:56 am Lexington, MA: SP Ascendant 27Sco29; SP MC 12Vir53). Simultaneously, the 1775 Mars-Pluto inconjunct (see lower right corner) will have progressed to a closely applying conjunction in the SP New Moon Horoscope - a Mars-Pluto conjunction in the governmental sign of Capricorn which happens to conjunct 1775 Pluto @26Cap41 (10th house in 1775). So upper right, you see penned some of the indications of 'Mars-Pluto with more Pluto' = "obsessed with vengeance against those who impede you; debased standards of living" (M. Munkasey)."

Now warrior planet Mars (@26Leo13 the 5th house of risk-taking) is chart-ruler (ASC 21Ari49) (the applying aspects of Mars are listed, lower left corner = 'how things proceed'), and in 1st house the Sun @29Ari06 rises (conjunct Demeter!). Then if you look on the left side of the chart you see highlighted in red, a note that the 1775 Sun will be eclipsed on April 20, 2023 by a 7 North Solar Eclipse @29Ari50 - and 7 North is the same Saros Series that the Fascism Rising Eclipse of 1933 fell into so 7 North themes of 'lust and deep passion long-hidden' (B. Brady) will again run in the background of society. Of course, other planetary positions differ between 1933 and 2023 but the cosmic influence is there. And perhaps we should note the Prenatal eclipse of the American Revolution, the Total 11 South Eclipse @11Pis11 (notated in 12th house, highlighted in red). To paraphrase 11 South Themes (which will repeat in 2027 @10Leo!): 'old methods or ideas fail, new systems and sudden reforms are needed to deal with events and handle issues; any blocks could be violently or tragically removed.'

Curiously, the Sabian Symbol of the rounded-up degree of the American Revolution Sun and of the 2023 7 North Eclipse Sun" "30Aries": "A Duck Pond and Its Brood." And significantly, the Mob Attack's Mars on January 6th (2021) conjoined this very degree. So it's no wonder the 1/6 mob attack is being called an "armed insurrection". Or at least, by realists it is - including those of us who watched the events unfold in real time on our TV screens - right before our eyes.

Meanwhile, you may notice that the positions of 1775 Mars and royal star Regulus conjunct the Mars-Regulus conjunction of a certain orange-faced demagogue who shall remain nameless in this post. Perhaps you agree that the less typed and said about the instigator, the better.

So in closing, I won't bore you, dear reader, with more chart details and cosmic links yet perhaps you'll discover them for yourself if curious. And I realize that my multiple warnings concerning the 7 North Eclipse repeating in 2023 are tiresome for regular readers but for those of us who wish to keep America around a few years longer, this is serious business worth repeating. So feel free to pass along this post if you know anyone who might be interested in seeing in black-and-white a reflection of cosmic events affecting soon-to-come earthly political and social shifts before it's too late to avert disaster. Please. jc

The Eclipse that Affects All US Presidential Elections

Solar Eclipses and US Presidential Elections

by Jude Cowell

Dear Reader: please note that the following post is yet another in my series of 'forewarned is forearmed' efforts which, understandably, the overly sensitive reader may wish to skip:

The first official US Presidential Election over a month's period from late 1788 into 1789 was a breeze with our hugely popular Revolutionary War hero, George Washington, scoring a unanimous 69 electoral votes from ten states. Only ten states because New York had not yet put forward its electors, and North Carolina and Rhode Island had yet to ratify the US Constitution.

So considering the current contentiousness of the former guy's 'Big Lie' that he continues to boast from Election 2020, it may be of interest to consider the Solar Eclipse Saros Series ('PE') in which America's first archetypal Presidential Election fell, for as a cosmic time link, its influence continues as a background factor in US Presidential Elections and the resulting presidencies throughout the years.

Annular in 1789 (actually manifesting on November 27, 1788 @6Sag15), the first official presidential election's PE occurred within the 7 North family which will repeat via a hybrid Solar Eclipse @29Ari50 on April 20, 2023, a critical 29th degree - and April 20th is Herr Adolf's birthday. Obviously, this eclipse falls firmly within the Campaign 2023 time frame prior to Election 2024 since campaigns begin early these days. And if you're daring enough at this point in time, you may wish to look ahead to the Inauguration 2025 Horoscope (hopefully we'll have one the majority can believe in yet dark forces work against democracy and peril does exist).

Meanwhile, besides the former guy's sore loser schemes and machinations, and the desperate actions of the election-rigging GOP, another skunk at the presidential celebration is that 7 North is the Saros Series which manifested on February 24, 1933 @5Pis28 as the 'Fascism Rising' Eclipse. Follow the link for more info on 7 North themes which sound somewhat mild, I agree, but it isn't always eclipse themes that matter most to historical events and conditions, it's the fact that a disruptive, revealing eclipse occurs at all (aka, a 'cosmic blink' or a 'Universal wild card'). And it's an eclipse's sign, degree, and the house in which it manifests in a given horoscope that affects events and participants in a disruptive Uranian manner with inconvenient secrets uncovered and scandals created.

Then as you know, an eclipse's Sabian Symbol (the word picture for each degree of the Zodiac) is informative as is its Illumination Point, the opposite degree which reveals hidden or unconscious information. So rounding up the 7 North Eclipse degree to "30Aries" we have: "A Duck Pond and Its Brood" (the degree of warrior planet Mars during the MAGA Mob Attack of January 6, 2021), and opposite = "30Libra": "Three Mounds of Knowledge on a Philosopher's Head" (which I always relate to Bacon, Locke, and Newton whose portraits were hung in tribute by Thomas Jefferson at Monticello - and suggestive of America's founding principles of The Enlightment).

And so, the 7 North Eclipse symbolism represents yet another cosmic indicator of America's current existential struggle for survival: fascism vs democracy.

Our only hope? Vote Blue in 2022 and 2024. In a massive turn out!

Depopulation Foretold: the Georgia Guidestones

Is Pandemic Depopulation Following the Advice of the Georgia Guidestones?

by Jude Cowell

January 28, 2021: During Election Year 2016, a post and horoscope were published to my Two Hours blog entitled A Georgia Guidestones Horoscope and the Hopi Prophecy of a New Age. The ceremonial unveiling of the Guidestones was held in the morning of March 20, 1980. In lieu of an exact hour, the horoscope is set for 11:00 am est with Moon @21Gem48 rising opposite transit Neptune @22Sag40. This suggests that the proceedings were tinged with Moon-Neptune vibrations, a mystical, delusional influence which can deeply stir feelings and disturbances from within the Collective Unconscious. Additionlly, the Gemini Moon conjuncts US natal Mars in Gemini while Neptune @22Sag40 squares US natal Neptune (22Vir25), opposes US natal Mars, and receives a visit from 1980 Saturn Rx @22Vir58.

Read the carved inscription on the Stones here.

Now as you know, Saturn-to-Neptune is the grim face of reality transit that can also bring disillusionment, a sense of unreality, and/or financial troubles with it. Such conditions can be recognized in the "trickle down" "supply side" Reaganomics policies which began implementation during his presidency (Inauguration January 20, 1981 - by trickery).

Why, there's even a 1 North Reaganomics Eclipse to mark the GOP's delusional, corrupt policies under which we continue to struggle! And you'll remember that a nation-splitting solar eclipse in the 1 North Saros Series repeated on August 21, 2017 (Tr*mp's first year) as The Great American Eclipse, with the word "great" a part of the main Tr*mp campaign slogan. So basically, America's natal Mars-Neptune square, famous for its tendency toward misdirected motivations/activities and 'fog of war' potentials, was activated by the transits we see in the Georgia Guidestones Horoscope. There are other important contacts between the 1776 and 1980 charts, of course, and if inspired, I hope you'll find them and leave your on-topic observations with this post:

Now it's only my personal opinion but you'll see penned at the bottom of the chart a notation that the 11:00 am Midheaven @5Pis35 on March 22, 1980 in Elbert County, Georgia points toward the Fascism Rising Solar Eclipse of 1933 (@5Pis28) in the 7 North Saros Series. And readers of SO'W may as well know that this post will likely reappear as a feature in a series of posts I'm planning that concern America's current struggle with authoritarian influences and entities now attempting to break down our democracy and toss America into the dust bin of History.

But please take heart, my friends, because A Fascist Plot in America Has Failed Before!

Now here is recent commentary by progressive broadcaster Thom Hartmann on How To Stop Fascism.

A Fascist Plot in America Has Failed Before

Democracy vs Authoritarianism in America - Again

by Jude Cowell

January 5, 2020: Most likely you're familiar with the Fascist plot in 1933 to induce General Smedley Butler to lead a potentially massive force of American Legion members against President Franklin D. Roosevelt in order to take over the White House and US government, thus putting a stop to FDR's New Deal plans. (As you know, certain corporatists, ideologues, and their political operatives have worked against our social safety net programs ever since with some success. After all, it irks them that such programs often benefit black people!)

So below is a horoscope of the 'visit' and sales pitch from the authoritarian conspirators to General Butler at his house on July 1, 1933 around 1:00 pm. Naturally, the culprits were fronting for big operators - the big bankers and other corporatists who were the leaders of the seditious plan in 1933, the ones who thought the straightforward Butler could be persuaded to their authoritarian cause. (At MC, The Goal Point, is starry Alhena: to have a mission; also asteroid Circe: to seek rescue). Note that Cupido @9Pis18 (Corporatism; The Syndicate; The Family) is in the risk-taking 5th house conjunct Pallas Rx (strategy) with the 7 North Solar Eclipse degree nearby. This fascist plot is well known for congressional hearings were held afterwards and General Butler testified against the men and their plot. And note that printed on the horoscope you'll see "J.P. Morgan firm behind it" (Mullins).

You'll also see expansive propagandist Jupiter unaspected in Virgo; some of its potentials are listed on the chart. In 5th house moving into 4th, Saturn @Rx @15AQ23 leads a Locomotive shape of planets (a high-powered, ruthless executive determined on success) with an interesting rounded-up Sabian Symbol: "16AQ" = "A Big Businessman at His Desk."

Now with Libra rising, 10th house Venus is chart-ruler but makes no major applying aspect to any planet (US natal Saturn, exalted in Libra, rises). Although Venus applies to no planet (going nowhere! but see lower left for the applying Venus-Chiron sextile, plus, note that Venus opposes US natal Pluto in Capricorn, suggesting underhanded manipulation, obsession, possessivene$$, and cut-throat competition), the Venus-Pluto conjunction (5S43) in patriotic, nationalistic, tribal Cancer is revealing for together the pair tend toward 'elements of organized crime' and their combined energies relate to 'the breakdown of the fabric of society' (Munkasey) which is what such fascist plotters are finally managing to accomplish now under figurehead Trump. Do I think their take-over plot is this wide and far-reaching? Of course.

And an upcoming period of time to be especially wary of is around and beyond the April 20, 2023 Solar Eclipse @30Aries in the 7 North Saros Series for it will be a repetition of the Fascism Rising Solar Eclipse of 1933 (horoscope shown) with its theme of a 'deep, long-hidden passion' and 'lust' coming to the surface (Brady).

Based on the tendency of history to rhyme, 7 North's theme, plus, current events, I believe that this very passion, hidden away for decades, is what now motivates corporatists and ideologues in their ongoing attempts to throttle democracy right out of America, leaving a hollow shell of a country for authoritarian freaks to fill.

Even if Trump sits out 2024 there's a 'Nazi Rise to Power' Eclipse in 2022

Every time I've heard Trump fly his trial balloon (or threat!) about running for president again in 2024, I think of two upcoming Solar Eclipses in particular with themes that relate to just such a bad idea. And as many pundits have said, a variety of difficulties lie ahead with or without a Trump in Politics.

First, the Nazi Rise to Power Eclipse of August 31, 1932 in the 6 South Saros Series in which a Total Eclipse repeats on October 25, 2022 @2Scorpio, then it's the Fascism Rising Eclipse of February 24, 1933 in the 7 North Saros Series in which a Total Eclipse repeats on April 20, 2023 @29Ari50, a critical 29th degree.

Now as parts of societal and historical cycles, both eclipses are worrisome for those of us who prefer democracy and the uplifting of the common good for as many people as possible! In the 1930s, America had FDR to see us through and implement social improvements. But how stymied will the White House be in 2022 and 2023 by power-lusting Republican authoritarians sporting theocratic credentials and cheered on by their wealthy backers?

So with this post I'm suggesting that 6 South and 7 North themes and degrees are worth keeping in mind in context with our present and upcoming conditions, issues, and personalities. And if you need to, dear reader, follow the links above and if you weren't already, maybe you'll consider yourself forewarned if not forearmed!

First US Presidential Election vs Election 2020

by Jude Cowell

May 28, 2020: So if you've read details concerning the First US Presidential Election held from December 15, 1788 to January 10, 1789 you know that the 69 electors voted unanimously for popular candidate George Washington. And if you keep up with current US political elections and the rigging, cheating, and gerrymandering activities perpetrated by one political party in particular, you would be pardoned for suspecting that Election 2020 may be America's last.

Stolen and stacked courts are a primary feature not a bug of the GOP master plan to permanently redden America despite the Will of the People, a democratic concept Republicans have never particularly favored, not within my memory anyway. Along with Trump's fake Twitter fuss about being fact-checked, such voting travesties, perversions of law, and dirty political tricks are discussed in Brad Friedman's May 27, 2020 BradCast in his interview with David Daley author of Ratf**ked: the True Story Behind the Secret Plan to Steal America's Democracy (and Why Your Vote Doesn't Count) and Unrigged: How Americans Battled Back to Save America. This truly is a don't-miss podcast.

Of course, between the outrageous antics and distractions by con man Trump and the debilitating Covid pandemic now virtually paralyzing the country, Republicans are counting on the American electorate to neglect such basic considerations as a permanent shift from democratic Republic to authoritarian state stretching into the foreseeable future and engineered by bad actors both foreign and domestic. Yes, things are worse than most people think but there's still a chance to right our Ship of State if enough of us pay attention and act to save America!

Horoscope: Prenatal Solar Eclipse @7Sag15 of the First US Presidential Election: Moral and Ethical Concepts and Philosophy of Sagittarius Lead to Karmic Progress

Now as you see, my study notes are penned, below, upon the Horoscope of the Prenatal Solar Eclipse ('PE') of America's first-ever presidential election which also happens to be the PE of George Washington's Inauguration of April 30, 1789 (horoscope shown on my WordPress blog, Jude's Threshold) and fortunately Jupiter was moving direct by then. This passionate 7 North Solar Eclipse remains of influence - is cosmically imprinted upon - all our quadrennial presidential elections including that of November 3, 2020 no matter who has been or will be in power at 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue as long as our now-sabotaged America exists and obviously America is in desperate need of a return to moral and ethical concepts and philosophies:
