Devin Nunes outed for his Russian ties

Official portrait: Devin Nunes in happier days

Are Dark Deeds Ever Really Hidden?

by Jude Cowell, partisan for the common good

When astro-notes concerning Republican Devin Nunes were published here in 2018, the fact of his involvement with the Russian propaganda campaign on Trump's behalf was suspected by some folks such as myself. Well today, Lev Parnas testified in a "Maga" House hearing revealing the complicity of Senator Ron Johnson - and former Representive Devin Nunes as Russian agents.

Once again, getting "dirt" on Joe Biden in order to "smear" his reputation and character just isn't working out as planned for Trumpist Republicans in Congress, most likely because there isn't any. Besides, who in US politics could possibly compare with arch villain Trump's level of skullduggery and disloyalty? Why, Donald is known as agent orange in some quarters!

Devin Nunes Center Stage: Peep-Eye!

Below is the Russian operative's natal data along with a few of the current planetary contacts that stand out in my estimation, although you certainly may discover more:

Devin Nunes October 1, 1973 7:07 am pdt Tulare, California; RR: AA; Moon @7Sag13 conjunct Neptune; ASC 10Lib23 where the 8 South Eclipse will land on October 2, 2024 with its themes of "loss, separation, sad partings"; possible "overstrain and/or physical injury" (B. Brady). Therefore, caution is advised!

However, the most current wild card of the Universe has to be the May 25, 2024 Lunar Eclipse @5Libra for it casts its revealing spotlight upon Mr. Nunes' natal Pluto (4Lib26) and brings his natal Sun (8Lib15) into the picture with the Sun-Pluto pair known for craving power and control. You'll remember that Trump's natal 2nd house Neptune will be lit up like a pinball machine by this Lunar Eclipse on Monday. And apparently the natal Pluto of Devin Nunes along with it. Interesting how their Neptune-Pluto connection showcases the organized crime duo of Neptune-Pluto.

Then there's Nunes' natal Chiron @19Ari05 which reveals that his Chiron Return is actually a five-fer. The first Return occurred June 7, 2023, the second on September 7, 2023, and the third conjunction soon occurs on April 3, 2024; this is his closest return to the visionary 8 North Great American Eclipse of April 8, 2024 @19Ari24 conjunct transit Chiron (also @19Ari24) which basically is his Chiron Return #3 of 5 - so his Chiron is eclipsed.

Adding complexity to his April Chiron Return will be a Moon-Pluto Conjunction @1AQ+ which conjuncts his natal Jupiter @2AQ18. This could possibly bring him some luck, or at least it may suggest a way out of an uncomfortable situation. Or not. Instead, it could indicate a cosmic light shone upon certain financial issues (Jupiter), a secret child or an affair, and/or involvement with violent actions such as the J6 coup attempt. Either way, deep emotions are certain to be expressed to and/or by him. Having a Chiron-Uranus opposition, facing deep emotions realistically is not one of his skills, nor is honoring the ideals of others with whom he disagrees.

Then the fourth conjunction of Chiron-to-his-Chiron perfects on December 15, 2024, with his final Chiron Return coming on January 12, 2025. Whew! Quite an extended period of time, so it seems that Mr. Nunes has multiple lessons to learn from his natal Chiron in Aries, restless maverick with a yen for power that he is.

So! These are the soon-coming planetary contacts I see for Mr. Devin Nunes. What fall-out will occur from today's hearing on Capitol Hill and the testimony of Lev Parnas remains to be seen and I'm certain political pundits will inform us. That is, unless Republicans somehow manage to cover it up or spin it to their satisfaction with an election coming up.

Besides, one ace up their anti-American sleeves is that everyone knows how short the memories of US voters can be.

But hold on: because Crooks and Liars has this: Lev Parnas' Testimony Blows the Biden Impeachment Out of the Water!

Trump Cancels NK Summit - DOJ Meets w Nunes

May 24, 2018 in the news: Donald Trump has sent a letter to Kim Jong Un cancelling their planned Singapore 'Summit' in June. A previous post containing founding data and chart/s for Singapore is available but has little details on the iffy meeting between two Uranians who tend to behave predictably in their unpredictability.

Meanwhile, today at 12:00 noon edt a meeting is scheduled between the DOJ and Devin Nunes, Trey Gowdy, and White House Chief of Staff John Kelly--and Mr. Trump, one assumes. This will be a divulging of information on the Mueller investigation which is completely out of character for the US Department of Justice but is said to be for the placating of Donald Trump. A second meeting is scheduled for 2:00 pm today between the same as above, plus, members of the 'Gang of Eight' which necessarily includes Democrats. The first meeting is a Republican-Trump strategy session to 'get their stories straight' for spinning purposes, the second is meant to look bipartisan.

See DOJ Briefing Gowdy-Nunes; also see Astro-Notes on Devin Nunes. Here's his official portrait:

Pundits are saying that such a meeting during an ongoing investigation is unprecedented and so it is. However, today's astrology shows an interesting cosmic condition--that the DOJ has just entered its first-ever Uranus Return period, a three-fer that first perfected on May 3, 2018. As you know, the sign of Uranus reveals behavior in a horoscope and the DOJ's natal Uranus of 1934, at a critical 29th degree of Aries, aspects its natal Sun, Venus, Mars, Jupiter, Neptune, and Pluto. Little is understood of the effects of a Uranus Return which occurs for human beings around age 84--perhaps a time of leaving the past behind? So this means that the DOJ's current Uranus Return/s are exact transits to the natal planets as seen in the DOJ natal chart so let's consider them here in light of today's meetings at the White House intended to 'clue in' Mr. Trump and his associates (to facilitate better spinning and tweeting).

Basically, Uranus, the disruptive planet of separation and chaos, on May 3, 2018 (and again on November 24, 2018, and finally on February 18, 2019) opposes three of the DOJ's natal planets. All the oppositions contain vibes of separation of some kind but the one that peaked my interest is Uranus opposite n Sun (1Sco43) for it suggests the DOJ behaving in an uncharacteristic manner. Yet this behavior will not necessarily satisfy or soothe any bruised egos that are involved in current circumstances, and of course, outcomes are unpredictable, as always with Uranus. Changes or a turning toward a new direction are also indicated but the permanence of a new direction is in question for it may only be temporary. Someone's will power and leadership are challenged which may point toward the DOJ's Rod Rosenstein but, as we know, may also denote Donald Trump or any of the actors in today's political theater performances (in relation to the DOJ).

DOJ's natal Venus (25Lib37) opposed by transit Uranus hints at reactions, attitudes, and pespectives that are unpredictable and/or unorthodox, unstable events and relationships, separation, and a potential for reversals in legal affairs.

DOJ's natal Jupiter (3Sco10) opposed by transit Uranus suggests issues of misplaced confidence, unreliable sources of information, and challengers who cannot be controlled or manipulated. Perhaps that will change as of today.

DOJ's natal Mars (4Vir29) trined by transit Uranus denotes unexpected or unorthodox activities and male relationships being favored. It suggests a period when actions may not have the desired outcomes but do not automatically lead to negative results, just different ones from what was expected or intended.

On the generational level, the DOJ's natal Pluto (26Can04--opposite US natal Pluto so this transit of Uranus affects both with a double Pluto vibe) squared by transit Uranus hints at the usual Uranus-Pluto unrest, protests, and social strife. The status quo and our established principles are disrupted and shifts are occurring within political power and social institutions (such as the the Executive Branch, Congress, and the DOJ). Military activities and control of resources are emphasized along with societal issues such as civil rights, women's rights, and the expansion vs restriction of governmental power.

Also, the DOJ's natal Neptune (13Vir39) sesqui-squared by transit Uranus shows 'squares within squares', a complex condition of obstacles within blockages. This suggests a period when a battle is being fought but it's difficult if not impossible to draw battle lines because the identity of the 'real enemy' is elusive and is being purposefully concealed or muddied. Terms and conditions for surrender are seldom clear during this transit and primary targets are institutions that deal with minority rights. Prevailing circumstances disrupt our sense of reality (tr Neptune through Pisces can do that all by itself making this complex condition worse!), and some form of idealism is prevalent though shaded--or there's a mission not fully revealed..

Well, it's now almost 1:00 pm so the first meeting may have ended if the schedule went well so I shall leave this annoying topic for now. Please follow the DOJ link, above, to view the DOJ's founding horoscope which is calculated via the Masonic ceremony with which FDR started the entity we call the Department of Justice, and please Share as you wish!

Astro-Notes on Devin Nunes (R-CA)

As you may have noticed, Wikipedia provides details on the life and career of Devin Nunes (R-CA), Chair of the House Intelligence Committee, memo-writer, former Trump transition team member, and seeming lapdog of kingpin-in-chief Donald Trump. Devin Gerald Nunes was born in Tulare, California on October 1, 1973 so let's have a brief peek at his natal planets (no birth hour known, 'noon' is used though the Moon remained in Sagittarius for the entire 24 hours) and any current transits affecting them.

First, a Sun Libra-Moon Sag (Air-Fire) personality combo of the 'live wire' suggests one who is idealistic, intelligent, enthusiastic, and has a sense of 'missionary zeal'. He may see himself as a 'mouthpiece for the grand vision' but may over estimate his capacities. This blend has a 'flair for persuasion and publicity'. Personal problems may be hidden by workaholism and a lack of introspection is supported by what may be a fantasy-prone Moon-Neptune conjunction and a problematic Mercury-Jupiter square of grandiose ideas, aspect of The Exaggerator (A. Oken). Blindness to his own deeper motives can affect the obsessive, single-minded pursuit of his goals--and he's highly susceptible to sales pitches from unreliable types such as Donald Trump.

Natal Sun Libra-Moon Sag is shared by humorist-journalist-writer Art Buchwald and one of his most famous quotes may apply to our subject, "I explained to him that I had simple tastes and didn't want anything ostentatious, no matter what it cost me."

His Mars-Jupiter square (Mars Rx in Taurus) denotes unreliability in group obligations which sounds much like the behavior the semi-recused Nunes has exhibited as Chair of the House Intelligence Committee. 'Fighting holy crusades' (Sakoian) are part of his Mars-Jupiter tendencies along with wasting other people's money, extremism, and glorifying war. Fanatical social or religious beliefs and involvement in controversial political issues are indicated as is hypocrisy.

Sun-Pluto, an Unaspected Venus, and Mercury-Uranus

Another important feature of Devin Nunes's chart is that natal Venus in Scorpio is unaspected (and in mutual reception with Pluto in Libra which conjoins his natal Libran Sun adding to his tendency toward obsession with power and certain personal compulsions). Unaspected Venus denotes a social 'wallflower' whose sociable instincts and perspectives are under-developed. Sporadic or compulsive actions may be noticed for he is less driven to reflect or deliberate before taking such action. Typically, little moderation or restraint are shown and a one-pointed focus is supported by an unaspected Venus in Scorpio, a sign obsessive and brooding enough all by itself. Additionally, a jealous or vindictive nature may also be a problem with Venus in Scorpio.

Also notable is a wide conjunction between Mercury and Uranus denoting an inventive and opinionated mind which may border on genius of some kind, or simple contrariness. Plus, in support of his unaspected 'wallflower' Venus, Jupiter in Aquarius means he relates to other people in a detached or aloof way although societal concerns (AQ) are evident as well. Broad interests are denoted (supported by Jupiter in AQ) and may include Technology, occult topics, and/or Astrology. Perhaps like many politicians, Devin Nunes may be a Freemason!

As for current transits to his natals, there are at least three major ones:

1. Transit Mercury conjunct natal Jupiter 2AQ18 (stimulating his Mercury-Jupiter square); 2. transit Mars conjunct natal Neptune 5Sag13; and 3. transit Jupiter conjunct natal Venus 21Sco22:

1. ideas and activities involve politics, writing (of memos?), and publishing. Legal decisions may be prominent and international communications may play a role. 2. a period of unwise decisions and actions, confusion, misunderstandings, and secret motives that may come to light; who did what and why is difficult to ascertain. 3. benefits are possible via alliances and associations, but overindulgence or extravagance may occur. Overestimation of relationships causes them to seem more promising than they really are (beware Trump!) and the compromising of principles is a potential to avoid; prudence and moderation are needed (though they must be gleaned from natal planets other than his unaspected Venus).

The Prenatal Solar Eclipse (PE) of Devin Nunes--and Donald Trump

Prior to his birth, on June 30, 1973, a Solar Eclipse manifested in the 11 South Saros Series @8Can31 a degree which precisely conjoins the natal Mercury of Donald Trump! Trump, born on June 14, 1946, would have experienced this eclipse of his natal Mercury and if one had the time one could look back at Trump in June 1973 and see what he was up to at age 27 (if one cared!) Mr. Trump's Solar Return horoscope of 1973 should include the 11 South eclipse but also the one before, the 11 North @14Capricorn (and of course, at age 27, the Mercurial Uranian Trump's Saturn Return around that time would provide a fuller cosmic picture; you've noticed Trump's trouble with taking responsibility for his actions and with being authentic and reliable--his Saturn in Cancer = discontent and hypersensitivity--Ebertin; neurosis and emotional scars--Sakoian).

11 South themes: old ideas or methods fail, new systems and sudden reforms are needed to deal with events under an 11 South eclipse; any blocks could be violently or tragically removed. (Predictive Astrology, Bernadette Brady). The last 11 South was on July 22. 2009 @29Cancer26; the next 11 South will be on August 2, 2027 @10Leo (conjunct Trump's natal Pluto). Hmm-m-m...has Trump got Nunes under his intimidating thumb? Or is it pay-offs and bribes?

The initial 11 South eclipse occurred on June 14, 1360 @00Can48 (OS), one of the four Cardinal World Points of Manifestation so the PE of Devin Nunes should be viewed through a double Cancerian lens of Fame, Recognition, Fortune--and the shrewd sideways scuttling of Cancer the Crab...scuttling toward secret contacts at the White House in the middle of the night!

Well, there's my quick peek at Devin Nunes, agree or disagree. Plenty more chart factors are worth noting so I encourage you to take a look at his chart yourself. And why not watch expert astrologer Maxine Taylor as she compares the solar natal chart of Devin Nunes with those of Donald Trump and Sally Yates. Maxine's video was posted on March 29, 2017.
