At last, I'm publishing a DC Horoscope of the Citizens United decision of January 21, 2010, which "opened the floodgates for special interests," according to then-President Obama, and made possible the destruction of democracy via election funding by wealthy corporations and entities here and abroad. As we both know, this political shift is precisely the sort of thing America's Founding Fathers warned future generations to avoid.
Yet now in 2025, such funding supports the "Dark Enlightenment" that Pluto-in-Aquarius technocrats are working to implement - in other words, Technocracy, with Silicon Valley types in control of America while Elon Musk quarrels with an age'd Tr*mp - and some say, Elon plans to replace the old fella with J.D. Vance, a creation of technocrat Peter Thiel.
Notably, the anti-democracy boys' "dark enlightenment" morass is the opposite of the traditional Enlightenment principles (Uranus-Neptune) that our nation was founded upon, striving though failing to reach them as closely as we would wish. But that's no reason to give up trying!
So for the curious reader, here is a DC Horoscope of the Citizens United decision (5 to 4) handed down on January 21, 2010 and set for 2:00 pm est. A few astro-notes are judiciously sprinkled about the chart including the 12 North Solar Eclipse, one of which also occurred on December 2, 1937 @10Sagittarius. For this chart, adjust the timing as you wish:
