How To Stop Fascism - Thom Hartmann

January 28, 2021: Authoritarianism rises when societies are under stress and in crisis mode. Here's a brilliant segment from yesterday's Thom Hartmann broadcast (6M 13S). No comment, just Thom:

June 30, 2021 edit: Thomas Carl Hartmann was born May 7, 1951 in Grand Rapids, Michigan (hour unknown) with Sun @16/17Taurus and Moon either in late Taurus or, as late as 10Gem33 (at 11:59 pm). Given Thom's career as a communicator, author, orator, broadcaster, etc, it seems safe to assume that Thom's natal Moon is in the Mercury-ruled sign of The Writer, Gemini. Notable is his natal Mercury @28Aries+, strong and opinionated at Retrograde Station! Additionally, a Locomotive shape of planets denotes a high-powered executive determined on success - and Thom's natal Jupiter @3Ari29 leads a Locomotive! Plus, his chart shows two interlaced YODs with the Nodal axis involved with both, and full of special purpose, turning points, dealing with crises, and karmic opportunities.

DC Horoscopes: Spring EQ and Summer Solstice 2019


Pictured are the DC Horoscopes for Spring Equinox 2019 and Summer Solstice 2019. Added is a significant date: April 5, 2019 when my Solar Fire Gold v9 software says is the exact conjunction by transit of Pluto and the South Node of the Moon, a Saturnian point of separation (with a potential for neurosis). The Pluto-SN cycle can time issues of war and violence within the Collective so a difficult period may be expected.

In addition, zealous anarchist and disruptive chaos agent Uranus @00Tau41 in the Spring Equinox 2019 chart conjoins Hitler's Trigger Degree of violence (his natal Sun degree which, when activated by planetary transit during his lifetime, inspired violent behavior, and as you know, Taurus is a sign of intolerance: Uranus in Taurus = premature action leads to failure; risking all in one go; speculation--Ebertin).

Both charts show a Locomotive shape of success and power with the changeable Virgo Moon leading the engine in Spring 2019 and expansive Jupiter in its own sign of Sagittarius leading the train into Summer.

Also, both seasons are influenced by the same Solar Eclipse Saros Series, the 2 South, which manifests on January 6, 2019 @15Cap25. More about that in a later post. Then as you see, transit Saturn and Pluto near one another but their Great Conjunction won't perfect until January 12, 2020 @22Cap46. Until then the world is mired within their current cycle which began with the Reagan-era conjunction of November 8, 1982 @27Lib36, 1 degree from the position of the tomorrow's New Moon October 19, 2017 @26Lib35 which times a controversial public speaking engagement by a White Supremacist Richard Spencer whose organization rented a venue for the occasion on the University of Florida campus. As you know, Saturn-Pluto blending their energies = brutality, cruelty, tragedy, violence.

Please note that this brief post is being published quite early on and is not meant to be all-encompassing regarding year 2019. Of course, my posts never are for I do insist on typing posts here, not books! Therefore, more 2019 astro-notes must wait but until then perhaps you won't mind enlarging the dual image to read the notes penned on the chart/s and/or calculating your own versions of the 2019 Spring and Summer seasons shown here, and we'll discuss the topics separately at a later date as pertains to America, Politics, and Washington DC, my former city of residence. jc

DC Horoscopes: May 2017 Lunations (US Mars Return)

Here are the horoscopes for the 'Flower' Full Moon of May 10, 2017 @20Sco24 and New Moon of May 25, 2017 @4Gem46 set for Washington DC; if you wish, please enlarge for better reading of my scribbled study notes:

As you see, Venus rules both charts via Libra rising. At the May 10th Full Moon (lower left on the dual chart), Venus applies only once: an opposition to Jupiter Rx denoting a period of extravagance, overindulgence, empty posturing, and gaudiness, plus, diplomatic gestures that are likely to fail. Jupiter again is the lead of a Locomotive shape in his many guises as the General, the CEO, the guru or priest, the broadcaster (or tweeter?), the thespian, the banker or financier...the list is varied with expansive Jupiter (which turns Direct on June 9th @13Lib12).

Venus @7Ari11 in 6th house of Military, Police, Civil Service, Work, Health, and Daily Rounds) also rules the 8th house of Corporatism, Credit, Debt, Insurance, Legacies, Shared Resources, the Occult, and Transformation (including Death) so all, any, or none of these areas may be affected including the 2nd house of the National Treasury with the Full Moon @20Sco24 posited there and denoting fluctuations and changes in resources and valuations. Of course, the Taurus-Scorpio axis includes financial issues all on its own and a Full Moon relates to a culmination or fulfillment of some kind--certainly an awareness or the typical uncovering that the spotlight of a Full Moon can bring. For as you know, lunations may act like eclipses and planet Uranus--revealing secrets and hidden matters no matter how inconvenient. In addition, this Full Moon chart shows the US natal Mercury-Pluto opposition on the MC-IC axis which suggests our usual surveillance concerns, spying, leaks, hacks, revelations, and other events.

New Moon @4Gemini46 May 25, 2017

Then three days after America's 2017 Mars Return (21Gem22; May 22nd) on May 25th comes a New Moon with the three days leading up to the lunation the 'dark of the Moon' phase when things tend to go bump in the night, or at least, in the shadows. In DC this New Moon falls at the end of the 8th house suggesting a new cycle of activity in 8th house matters (listed, above). The New Moon's Sabian Symbol is penned upon the chart (upper right) and its word picture ("A Radical Magazine...") seems to hint at certain publications such as Breitbart with sensationalism in the lunar mix (Moon = publicity, the public, public relations) especially since Moon-ruled Cancer is on the MC and rules the 10th house of Public Reputation in both charts), or perhaps pulp publications such as The Enquirer are spotlighted. The question is: what will be the 'radical' topic?

Now in the New Moon horoscope, chart ruler Venus applies in major aspect twice: 1. trine status quo Saturn Rx (@25Sag58 in 3rd house of Communications, Short Journeys, and Primary Education); and 2. conjunct Uranus, America's planet of war, and of Utopian visions, chaos, and disruption. Note that quirky Uranus is also the predictably unpredictable Mr. Trump's oriental planet.

1. Venus trine Saturn denotes a period of success in such realms as legal matters, diplomacy, and alliances; promotions that provide greater authority may be the reward along with improvement in relationships with those who are more mature and responsible. 2. Venus conjunct Uranus indicates the forming of unusual or non-traditional partnerships via unique methods that are employed for the achievement of common goals--though separations may also occur. Plus, with Venus-Uranus contacts, wasteful or eccentric spending habits cannot be ruled out which supports the extravagance shown by Venus in the May 10th Full Moon horoscope. One can't help but think of Melania Trump, her husband, or both.

Yes, money planet Venus in adventurous Aries loves change and variety but hopefully the extravagant Mr. Trump's expensive vacation habits, Melania's and Donald's out-of-DC security expenses, and the Trump administration's bombing excursions won't plunk America and our National Treasury into the alms house of debtor nations before we can 'get a grip'. And yet it isn't as if the American people can depend upon our dysfunctional and highly partisan Congress to reign in excessive spending by a Republican president, now can we?

Unless 2017's US Mars Return on May 22nd, which indicates limits to activities and adventurism via transit Saturn's off-and-on opposition to our nation's warring Mars, denotes the traditional mission of congressional fiscal oversight!

Horoscope: US Moon Return on Election Day 2016--We the People!


Have you seen the horoscope of our national Lunar (Moon) Return for November 8, 2016 which happens to be General Election Day 2016? Here's the chart, below. Please enlarge the image to read my messy-as-usual notes for it seems America will be hatching 'an exotic moth' that day since we already acccommodate the 'hovering hawk' of NSA total surveillance:

Venus @25Sag47 in 11th house is out of bounds (OOBs) of the earthly plane and acting according to her own unusual or possibly skewed perspectives yet is in Mutual Reception (on friendly terms) with Jupiter (Sag/Libra) which leads a planetary Locomotive of success (which could signify Mr. Trump with his Jupiter in Libra.) Meanwhile critical degrees grace the ASC/DESC axis of Self and Other and manipulative gold-hoarder and power-grabber Pluto has just risen into the 12th house of Karma, Secret Deals, and Politics while testy Mars at a critical-crisis 29th degree readies to rise and take control of the situation. Following activist Mars closely is asteroid Hidalgo who seeks higher status, an exotic social climber, we might say. But is Hidalgo the 'exotic moth' a majority of We the People will vote for?

Actually, Mars rising is Donald Trump's planetary signature but he expresses it with a dramatic Leonine flair! Plus, there's the 8th house 19 North Solar Eclipse @9Virgo to contend with and its realism vibes which will take precedence since late August-early September as expressed in large part by candidate Bernie Sanders. However, you see the Scorpio Sun and Mercury at the top (Mc) of the chart which suggests Scorpio Hillary Clinton (natal ASC, Mercury, Venus, Chiron, Sun) at the Aspiration/Goal Point of the Lunar Return chart and in her natal 12th house of Politics. Is the American public feeling futuristic (AQ) enough to toss out establishment candidates? Polls have said so but November 8th is what tells the conservative vs progressive tale one more time.

For more info, let's look a bit closer at the degree of a planet that often triggers action:

Warrior Mars at '30Cap': "A Secret Meeting of Men Responsible for Executive Decisions in World Affairs," a symbol which relates to an "occult hierarchy," or, the "White Lodge" (the White House.) Also "seeing through the facts" is involved with this degree referencing EXECUTIVE POWER (Rudhyar) which resonates well with US Politics, this year's major political election, and the oppressive, exploitative corporate structure behind the US government. Plus, the Illumination Point of '30Cap' uncovers what I believe also relates to Election 2016 rhetoric and proposals and to a basic American tradition:

'30Cancer': "A Daughter of the American Revolution"...GLORIFICATION OF THE PAST." Have we learned anything from war at all?
