A 2024 Candidate Has a Jupiter Return in 2024!

Which Candidate Has a Jupiter Return in 2024?

by Jude Cowell, partisan for the common good

First, the elephant in the room. At the tragic Assassination of Robert F. Kennedy, the leading Democratic presidential candidate in 1968, his son RFK Jr was only 14 years old. The negative effects of such a horror are incalculable upon a young son, a son now running for US president in 2024. We might think that such a potential includes a large measure of courage, however, if it weren't for the fact that as a third party candidate in November 2024, RFK Jr may act as a "spoiler" who will siphon votes from President Biden and toss victory to fasc*st Trump, aka, 'agent orange'.

Jupiter in Gemini: the desire for many connections; a love of change; a carefree attitude; superficiality (R. Ebertin).

Now Jupiter the politician, banker, priest, and/or corportatist isn't the only factor when it comes to winning elections but, out of Biden and Trump, it may be a significant factor in the 'good fortune' department that Robert Kennedy Jr is the only candidate with a measure of Jupiterian support in 2024 - into 2025. And since his natal Jupiter links to his natal and Return 9th house via Sagittarius and Pisces cusps, we could be talking foreign money rolling in.

The point is, on a cosmic and political level the years 2024 into 2025 will bring RFK Jr a three-fer Jupiter Return (once his currently operative April 30, 2013 Jupiter Return wanes). Above is a dual image of his natal horoscope (lower left; January 17, 1954) along with the first of his three-fer Jupiter Returns on August 18, 2024 (upper right), with Jupiter's cycle of approximately 12 years' duration.

The cyclical repetition of a three-fer Return suggests an extended period of learning whatever lessons his natal Jupiter, leading a Locomotive shape of ruthless determination toward success, should teach him. Naturally, one assumes that finances are part of the picture. Or perhaps that's financiers (with an ulterior motive of aiding Trump). However this may be, Saturn squares his natal Jupiter in August as does Venus (see the T-Square listed, below) so delays and blockages are indicated - and may relate in some way to his father.

Now a variety of astro-notes messily penned on and around the charts are only a partial reading, and mostly relate to his natal Jupiter. The dates of his second and third Returns are listed and highlighted in green. And as you see, today's 8 North Solar Eclipse of 'dreams and visions' manifested precisely upon his natal Midheaven (!) which probably provides a lift to his professional objectives, or at least to his druthers.

Planetary Returns Repeat Natal Planets' Aspects

Notably, each of his Jupiter Returns through the years have repeated the only natal aspect to his natal Jupiter - an inconjunct from natal Mars in Scorpio. This aspect reveals Mr. Kennedy to be a gambler or risk-taker with a need to impress people. The inconjunct may attract fairweather friends, and suggests that obstacles to success may be based on unusual perspectives, a lack of realism, and/or a tendency to misjudge people or situations through overrating or underrating others; this may cause him to belittle those who deserve his respect (A. Epstein). Yet we shall see if maturity has improved his perspectives as the campaign trundles on.

Then as you see listed on the August 18, 2024 Return chart, transit Venus and Saturn oppose one another and form a dynamic T-Square pattern with his natal Jupiter at apex. This planetary trio suggests tricky legalisms and illegitimate relationships (R. Ebertin).

There are more cosmic factors of note, of course, but let's close this post for now. If Mr. Kennedy stays in the 2024 race perhaps another assessment will be appropriate so let's see how the 2024 campaign goes, then decide.

Mystery Horoscopes: Past Dictator and his Devil's Apprentice

Scorpio Lunations of Scrutiny: 2023 spies 2017

by Jude Cowell, partisan for democracy

Today's New Moon @20Scorpio activates a significant Full Moon which perfected on May 10, 2017, the very day that dictator-wanna-be (who has now crossed a line and used the word "vermin" for his opponents like the old dead Austrian used to do) fired FBI Director James Comey. We couldn't realize it then but this can be considered a foreshadowing of the alleged agenda known as Project 2025, said to be planned for implementation on Day One of a second term of dystopia if Herr T can claw his way back into the White House.

Why? Because he purged James Comey for not swearing allegiance to him, and he wants a much larger purge starting in 2025 of all government officials and workers who understand that their allegiance is to the US Constitution and not to an indivdidual. A personality cult is not how it works in America so obviously, T and his comrades are trying to operate in the wrong country.

Then if we add the Sabian Symbol for the Scorpio New and Full Moons of 2023 and 2017 we get a Derelict Soldier who follows his conscience - which will not be allowed by wanna-be-dictator Herr T (if We the People stupidly allow the felon back into power).

Anyway, below you see a bi-wheel of two "mystery horoscopes". Inner is the natal chart of a past dictator (guess who?); outer chart is that of a dictator-wanne-be with planetary contacts between them circled and penned on.

Added are a few astro-notes and below the bi-wheel image is a list of potentials of past dictator's natal midpoint pictures which happen to conjunct dictator-wanne-be's natal Midheaven, the Goal Point of any horoscope.

And notably in 1990, Ivana said her husband kept a book of past dictator's collected speeches beside their bed. Sooo romannntic!

Now since the two ill-adjusted, bigoted egotists are sympatico in the realms of abuse of power (Pluto-Saturn), group causes (Jupiter-Uranus), plus, their shared character flaws of grievance, revenge, violence, zealotry, and anti-societal moral issues (Mercury-Chiron), a planetary comparison seems appropriate although disagree, if you must. But please see the lower right corner where nestled are the 1917 Eclipse themes which symbolically influence the combination of their natal charts, aka, their relationship horoscope:

Dictator-wanna-be's MC = 1889 Mars-Neptune (weakness, sickness, failure), Venus-Neptune (losing oneself in illusion), Mars-Pluto (ambition; facing overwhelming force; danger through the intervention of a higher power; an operation), and last but not least, Venus-Pluto (a karmic union). Apparently, some loose cannon goomba thinks he's meant to finish a mission to take over the world!

But we mustn't leave out Fascist Number One! So you may wish to check out Benny Mussolini's natal Ascendant @20Scorpio! bwo a previous post concerning The Bundle of Herr Trump. Because Brazen Benito was born with the planetary shape of a Bundle (of a dictator) but Mango Mussolini has had to evolve into it, the poor ole fella.

Edit: If you get a chance, listen to the 'Countdown with Keith Olberman' podcast episode, "The Media Just Figured It Out: Trump Is Hitler" 11.14.23. "We must use the real words."

American Revolution's Eclipse Aug 2027

As in 1775 Themes Repeat with the 11 South in 2027

by Jude Cowell on behalf of democracy and the common good

Back in the olden days of December 2012, the Horoscope of the American Revolution was published here on SO'W with a few planetary and historical details added such as the war's hidden dynamic.

Below is an excerpt from my December 2012 post which, in my mind, relates to the J6 coup attempt by sore loser Trump and his followers, the extremists, anarchists and zealots willing to overthrow the government of the nation that my Revolutionary War ancestors sacrificed, fought, and died to help establish. 'Maga' hotheads have even had the audacity to cite what they called their "1776 moment" as if their violent, traitorous sabotage of the US Congress that day was in league with the revolt of 1775 against the British monarchy. So actually, they even had the year wrong!

And yet, 'under cover' of the American Revolution, Trump's thugs and maga politicians have sought to justify what was a sore loser attempt to physically force a second Trump "presidency" upon the majority of American voters who had said, enough! to another term of Trumpian brutality and grift. Grudge-holding Donald was rebuffed, and he remains po'd.

Of course predictably, our country is now experiencing a wave of strong-armed violence and threats against anyone in process of holding Trump accountable for instigating J6, plus, for the several other allegations against him, including espionage. And if the US military had played along that day, Trump's coup attempt might have been successful, so it's significant that Republican Senator Tuberville of Alabama has been aiding Trump for months by holding up military promotions. But good news! The new chairman of the Joint-Chiefs-of-Staff, C.Q. Brown, has been successfully confirmed by bipartisan Senate vote, "sidestepping" the Tuberville scheme to hobble our military which damages our national security, and aids Mr. Putin.

And you'll note that House magas are against more funds for Ukraine and it's part of the snag involved with the Republican government shutdown that could be coming November 17th. Meanwhile, Rs are now callously using the Israel-Hamas War (begun October 7, 2023) to further their support of Russia by claiming no support for democratic Ukraine, send the support to Israel instead, they cry!

Thankfully confirmed now is General Randy George as Army Chief of Staff. At least there's a bit more progress although US national security remains in jeopardy, just how America's enemies planned. And you've noticed how the Hamas attack on Israel came only after Tuberville's blockage of military promotions intended to neuter the US military as much as possible.

But speaking of military topics and conditions, let's look ahead to 2027 because a significant Solar Eclipse repeats and it's the one that 'spawned' the American Revolution, and it arrives in early August 2027 (influences begin in July) and, as the Cosmos would have it, the malevolent natal Pluto of Donald Trump @10Leo02 will be 'eclipsed' by it as it casts a disruptive cosmic spotlight his way. This transit indicates power issues or abuse, plus, criminal offences such as gang wars for anyone who lives long enough to experience it.

The American Revolution 1775's 11 South Eclipse occurred @11Pis11; an eclipse in the 11 South Series repeats on August 2, 2027 @9Leo55:

As you see, 10th H Pluto @26Cap41 in 1775, planet of power, manipulation, and control, is in the same degree (26) as battling Mars with Mars @26Leo13 (conjunct Trump's natal Mars). Their inconjunct (150 degr) is nearly partile (exact) and applying (0A27.) A persecuting Mars-Pluto inconjunction (or, quincunx) describes a courageous challenger (Mars) who's grown weary of being someone else's 'workhorse' and Mars' bad temper results in explosive conditions which are made more burdensome by financial stress.

Also notable is transit Pluto in Aquarius aligning in opposition to Trump's Pluto in Leo suggesting a no-compromise struggle for power and control.

These cosmic signals resemble the conditions that sparked the American Revolution to me. How about you?

Those Celebrity Spies of Hollywood!

A Tribute to the Anti-Nazi Actors of World War Two

by Jude Cowell, partisan for democracy and the common good

When it comes to war, who better to become spies than actors already accustomed to hiding their true identities? The lists of anti-Nazi spies of World War Two are now known to include several famous actresses and actors whose secret activities were successfuly concealed - everyone recognized them so passports were seldom if ever checked, their appearances in certain venues were distracting, they knew how to schmooze with anyone while gathering information, and they could travel wherever they wished.

For example, the very popular Josephine Baker spied for her beloved France as she traveled with invisible-inked intel written on sheet music sewn into her clothes. Well done!

Please note that this post is inspired by watching an intriguing 52-minute video this morning: The crucial role of Hollywood spies--from Cary Grant to Marlene Dietrich and Greta Garbo.

Sounds like yet another reason the current crop of fascists such as Tr*mp and the 'maga' GOP 'hate' Hollywood and the film industry Jews therein - it's an old grudge they hold against people in the WWII era who stood in the way of Hitl*r's Nazi world domination agenda.

Well, I'm very glad they did! Now the estimable Taylor Swift, with her ability to inspire new voter registrations, a pro-democracy move, probably won't be welcomed at Mar-a-Lago any time soon. For as The Independent put it a few days ago, Taylor Swift call to action drives 13,000 people every 30 minutes to voter registration site. So that's another well done!

Meanwhile, it just so happens that three of the Hollywood actors mentioned in the video have previously been profiled on my Neptune's Silver Screen blog of celebrity horoscopes, trailers, and photos.

If curious, here's a list of their astro-portraits:

Cary Grant (pictured above; public domain);

Marlene Dietrich (FBI head J. Edgar Hoover didn't trust her but did he trust anyone?);

Greta Garbo who, curiously enough, played the role on film of one of the most famous spies of all, World War One's Mata Hari!

Now on the topic of spying we would be remiss to skip over a previously published astro-comparison between Ian Fleming and Sean Connery, two men whose collaboration on author Fleming's James Bond double-oh-seven character made Sean Connery mega-famous and defined for generations of audiences the archetype of the elegant, always successful spy. Yet as far as I know, Mr. Connery was only play acting and not a real spy at all--but Ian Fleming had been!

So let's close on a more current note: a recent question posed by a BBC writer but perhaps you already know the answer, If Trump isn't a spy, why is be being charged under the Espionage Act? After all, 'agent orange' faces only 31 charges over stolen documents. So far!

Bi-Wheel: Coup Attempt 2021 w/ J6 Public Hearing June 2022

June 9th Accountability Knocks: Will the Guilty Answer?

by Jude Cowell

On April 29, 2022, J6 Committee Chairman Bennie Thompson told the American people to expect "at least 8 hearings" investigating Trump's Attempted Coup of January 6, 2021. Finding no exact hour the opening hearing of June 9, 2022 may begin, the following bi-wheel shows the Public Hearing (outer) set for the speculative hour of 9:30 am edt, Capitol Building (or other DC location) with US natal North Node (meetings) conjunct the IC (endings) of the Trump Coup Attempt chart (inner).

Note: Although I'm calling this the 'first' public hearing, Capitol Hill officers testified in July 2021 about the coup attempt. These horoscopes are posted today because most of us are hoping that politicians and others who aided and abetted Trump's power grab scheme will be held accountable bwo of the J6 Summer 2022 hearings, and by the DOJ. If the culprits aren't, a coup attempt will occur again, as everyone knows. Yet a plus is that transit Pluto conjunct Mercury supplies deeper powers for delving into hidden meanings and motivations, so let's take appropriate actions to protect democracy and our Republic!

For the January 6, 2021 insurrection horoscope shown here, I'm using 1:32:32 pm est so that 26Tau27 rises with malevolent Algol conjunct Trump's natal Midheaven 'MC' (the goal), along with the opening hearing's Mercury, planet of testimony, communication, negotiation - but also of lies, deception, theft, and trickersterism. Transit North Node @22Tau15 conjuncts ASC as well which suggests that Trump has been and will be the central figure in the J6 proceedings (for clear reasons). And yes, the leader of the sabotage felt very joyful on that day as shown by Sun = Venus-Jupiter!

Both Charts/Events: Moon-Mars Oppositions with Don't Tred On Me Vibes

Besides the anger, quarrels, fights, and self-willedness that a Moon-Mars opposition suggests, a prominent transit for Trump is legal eagle planet of karma, accountability, and timing, Saturn Rx @25AQ14, opposing Trump's natal Mars in Leo (and his natal Ascendant, for that matter). This denotes potentials for gridlock, anger and resentment, negative dealings with males and the public, illness (heart problems, stress, strain, inflammation, injuries), and yes, a potential for violence. According to R. Ebertin, there are also indications of 'mysterious death, grievous loss, insufficient power to tackle obstacles or resistance, weakening efforts, self-torment', and/or the 'undermining of vitality' via 'poison, gas, or epidemic', as shown by the J6 public hearing's Mars-Saturn @18Pis23 conjunct Coup Attempt Neptune @18Pis35) with Mars-Saturn as 'the death axis'. We should brace for the possibility that sinister, mysterious, or subversive events could occur before or during the Summer 2022 J6 hearings. This is supported by the ongoing themes of the current 6 North Solar Eclipse (@10Tau28 on April 30, 2022) suggesting 'commitments accepted due to another person's unreliability or illness' and with 'relationships to authority figures' being prominent (paraphrasing B. Brady).

Now there are multiple planetary contacts between the two horoscopes and events as you see and some are mentioned, above. But let's continue our focus with the multi-faceted contacts affecting the Coup Attempt's Mercury-Pluto conjunction, remembering that 2022 is the year of America's first-ever Pluto Return (3x for good measure). And let's note that the Coup Attempt's Saturn-Pluto midpoint is joined by the Public Hearing's Pluto which adds recognition and confrontation with evil to the mix (Munkasey). There, I typed it: pure evil such as the 2020 Saturn-Pluto Conjunction @22Cap46 cosmically consolidated for humanity as their nearly 33-year cycle began once again - while perfecting their conjunction directly upon the natal Vertex of Mr. Trump (22Cap51): fated encounters or wish fulfillment? Perhaps both

Thing is, it's time for Americans to decide once and for all what sort of country we have and what brand of government we want, and the J6 hearings are part of the challenge along with the US Pluto Return/s. It's as if the old R vs D stand-offs are distilled into the current Authoritarianism vs Democracy tug of war, but we must be certain to recognize that it's brutal, malevolent neo-nazis mounting the challenge to American democracy. Why, even the double Moon-Mars oppositional influences echo Trump's natal Mars opposing (targeting) US natal Moon in Aquarius. How much plainer can the Cosmos make the threat?

Then What About the Libra Moon/s?

So besides Luna's opposition with warrior planet Mars, the Moon on June 9, 2022 @12Lib11, a critical degree, acts as the handle of a Bucket pattern and thus is a primary driver or motivator of the proceedings. As you know, the mundane Moon = the public, publicity, public relations, family, security concerns, and as a timing agent, we should note that the Coup Attempt's Moon @21Lib31 returns to her position (a Lunar Return) on June 10, 2022 at 2:00:59 am edt with early Aries rising. An earlier position of testy Mars is signifiant - @12Ari02, a critical-crisis degree - exactly opposite the June 9th Public Hearing's Moon (12Lib11) which is a Moon-Mars (angry or upset people!) emphasized again.

And a cosmic echo of the Tr*mp natal Mars @26Leo opposing US natal Moon.

Overthrowing US more successful for Rutherford Hayes

by Jude Cowell

September 29, 2021: Below is Thom Hartmann in a segment from his broadcast posted to YouTube yesterday (9.28.21) in which he discusses the Federalist Society's John Eastman memo (link to text, below) which laid out the Federalist-backed plan for crazed Tru*mp to seize the presidency and remain in power ad nauseum come January 20, 2021.

Thom notes similarities between the 2020 Election and the controversial election of Republican Rutherford B. Hayes who was aided in seizing the power of the presidency by 'win at any cost' enablers. If curious, you'll find a link below to a previous posting of the Hayes Inauguration Horoscope in which a cosmic time link turns up between then and now!

Because as you'll see, the Prenatal Solar Eclipse of the Hayes Inauguration fell into the 4 South Saros Series and a 4 South eclipse repeated on December 14, 2020 - the very day of the Electoral College Vote Count which, as it turned out on January 6 (7), 2021, was won by Joe Biden, a life-threatening outcome of disaster for you-know-who.

See Total 4 South Solar Eclipse December 14, 2020.

And that particular 2020 Electoral College Vote Count, as you know, led to the very vote counting and certification event in Congress that Tr*mp's 1/6 mob attack ("Stop the Steal") was intended to delay for a few hours so that, as Kraken Powell asserts, Justice Samuel Alito could allegedly intervene and, in time, insert his anti-American judgment to make Tr*mp president for life with the help of VP Pence, of course. But Mike Pence balked, as you know, when advised that his ceremonial VP-ship didn't possess the power for such power-grabbing tomfoolery.

And, similar to 1877, we should mention that the December 14, 2020 4 South Eclipse is the Prenatal Solar Eclipse ('PE') of Inauguration 2021 and would have been its PE, no matter who was inaugurated. The 4 South eclipse themes of 'strong emotions over money and relationships' with 'a desire to suddenly end relationships' (B. Brady) would have influenced events in one way or another. For example, it was Tr*mp's relationship with the White House that ended - and ours with him. But he's rather like the rubbish boyfriend who just keeps calling, isn't he? No, the mobster hasn't give up and his neo-n*zi comrades, foreign enablers, and the anti-American corporatists who fund the global authoritarian movement are regrouping their forces for their next planned onslaught against America. For as you know, the years 2022, 2023, and 2024 are naturally the key time frames for their next power-seizing attempts prior to Inauguration 2025 (horoscope shown - assuming there is an inauguration).

So while we have time, let's check out Memo Proves Trump Planned (to) Overthrow America in which Thom asks, Why doesn't everyone know about the Eastman memo?

Well, thanks to CNN we can read the memo here.

Plus, if you wish, view my hand-drawn horoscope of the Hayes Inauguration of 1877. And as always, your on-topic, name-tagged comments are invited. For I grow weary publishing monologues, y'know! jc

Astro-Notes: The 2004 Transit of Venus and Trump

Astro-Notes on The 2004 Transit of Venus and an Unfaithful Donald Trump

by Jude Cowell

The last Transit of Venus (passing across the Sun from Earth's vantage point) occurred on June 5 and 6, 2012 and is the last Venus Transit of the 21st century. For as you know, Venus Transits occur in pairs every 243 years, 8 years apart and separated by gaps of 121.5 years and 105.5 years. Follow the above Wikipedia link for more details about this rare, scientifically significant, cosmic occultation.

Yet the focus of this post is the 'partner' of the 2012 Transit which occurred on June 8, 2004 so if we check out 2004 in US Politics, we find war criminals Dubya Bush and Dick Cheney in the White House overseeing America's oil-and-poppy grabbing Middle Eastern adventurism in which no WMDs were found - but ancient artifacts were looted from the Iraq Museum. However, the good news is that apparently, 17,000 of the looted artifacts have been returned to where they belong. We might also note that Bush and Cheney were "re-elected" on November 2, 2004 - and that the Venus Cycle (4 and 8 years) forms a background of cosmic influences upon the US Presidential Election Cycle. Not the only one or the only influence on elections, of course, but there it is.

Now to calculate the 2004 Transit of Venus Horoscope, below, my astrology software and I can only manage an exact conjunction of Sun and Venus which, as you see, occurred at 17Gem53:34 at 4:43 am edt (Washington DC: ASC 00Gem13 conjunct Alcyone (keyphrase: something to cry about). Please note that the bi-wheel image shows the 2004 chart surrounding the natal chart of Herr Tr*mp:

Meanwhile, various events in the US during 2004 are listed here. June 2004 events include the resignation of CIA Director George Tenet on June 3rd, the passing of Ronald Reagan, age 93, on June 5th (funeral June 11th, a beloved fellow to many), and the Sea Island, Georgia G-8 Summit ('8' one of Venus' numbers) which then included Russia but as you know, Putin and the Kremlin were kicked out of the group in 2014 due to aggression against Ukraine.

Now since Tr*mp's ambitious dreams of power and control were simmering in the background of 2004 with his alleged foreign connections well underway by then, it seems significant to me that the 2004 Transit of Venus perfected directly upon his natal 10th house Uranus (17Gem53) which happens to be his oriental or guiding planet, with Uranian chaos and disruption being his favored way to do business, as we know. Plus, because erratic Uranus suggests reactionary politics, radical reforms, abrupt changes, unusual contacts or associations, or even zealotry and anarchy - if We The People didn't realize the radical political nature of Tr*mp in 2004, we certainly have seen and experienced such 'wild' and disruptive behavior demonstrated in the last few years, culminating with his terrorist attack on the Legislative branch of government on January 6, 2021 (with more to come).

Yet let's not spotlight only Russia and, by extension, Ukraine, in the Trump saga because two references to China appear in his natal chart, as perhaps you've previously noticed: the Sabian Symbols for his Uranus (18Gemini) and for his natal Moon (22Sagittarius) which are penned on the left of the chart, highlighted in orange. Curiously, one symbol (word picture) sounds like foreign spies having a cozy chat together ('unusual contacts and associations'), and the other = "A Chinese Laundry". He's said to be a dedicated money launderer, you know, and the global criminal underworld surrounds and supports him.

So as you see, transit Pluto in the chart conjuncts his natal Sag Moon so we know 2004 was a time of intense emotional turmoil and fear, being manipulated and controlled, and even overpowered (see lower left corner), plus, potentials of the period included trouble in personal relationships, difficult family matters, and issues of financial empowerment or theft.

Simultaneously, Pluto opposed his Gemini Sun suggesting a time of no-compromise situations (an offer he could't refuse?), threats of devastating consequences made, plus, his ego could have been defeated in a contest of wills against more powerful Plutonian forces. Of course, that's spymaster Pluto of the hidden hand, the manipulative planet of extreme wealth and perhaps ringleader of a criminal syndicate.

Plus, transit Pluto to South Node, a Saturnian point indicating the past, supports the idea of threats to his or his family's personal security, and possibly that he had met with these or other Plutonian figures before (SN).

Then if we view the 2004 Venus Transit Horoscope as one of simple planetary contacts for Tr*mp, Venus conjunct his natal Uranus hints that unusual or nontraditional contacts and alliances occurred along with relationship break-ups, while any threats to his ego probably dissipated rather quickly (as they would have if he accepted 'the offer'). His fabled lack of loyalty was activated (or utilized) and he received attention that made him feel 'special' (bwo Venusian flattery and financial promises) although group participation would have been a bit more difficult than usual for this odd Uranian loner and dictator-wanna-be.

Additionally, a general mention should be made of potentials within the Venus-Uranus pair and the associated tendencies toward extravagance, love of luxury, wastefulness, eccentricity, unfaithfulness, self-willedness in love, temporary liaisons, and sudden separations. And of course, he was born a rebellious, quirky Sun-Uranus kind of guy, an original, tendencies which were spotlighted or enhanced by the transiting Sun @17Gem53 and suggesting public contacts and meetings via his Gemini North Node.

Now in closing, here's a vintage SO'W post concerning this Venusian topic from way back in 2012: Horrocks First Views a Venus Transit in 1639 which provided more accuracy to measurements of our Solar System than observations had ever provided before. And the next Transits of Venus? December 10-11, 2117 and December 8, 2125, both in Sagittarius.

And for daring readers with strong stomachs, here's a clip or two of what 'thespian' Tr*mp was up to in 2004.

Hitler's Rise to Absolute Power, Trump, and Astrology

"The federal government has absolute power. It has the power. As to whether I'll use that power, we'll see." - Donald Trump, fan of dictators past and present. Note that with this assertion he reveals that he equates himself with the federal government.

August 10, 2020: The more despotic, authoritarian, anti-constitutional, anti-humanity, and out of control becomes Herr Spanky Trump the more I think back on the various SO'W posts concerning Hitler and Trump and the rise of Fascism in Germany, in addition to the current crop of white 'supremacists' in America (who coup'd the White House in 2017 as you probably noticed). Today I discovered that a freshly posted ''Timeline World History Documentaries' video (49m33s) has been published to YouTube which may be informative for anyone concerned about the authoritarian direction Trump has and will steer our nation if "re-elected."

See Timeline World Histories': How Hitler Gained Absolute Power in Germany.

Economic collapse creates perfect conditions for the seizing of power along with the purposeful degradation of laws and traditions in society. Trump has worked to degrade and sabotage our nation for almost four years now. And since we know that history so often rhymes through similar events and conditions (and eclipse degrees are sensitized and can be reactivated at some point in time by transit, progression, and/or direction), the fact that certain solar eclipses of 1932 and 1933 will soon repeat along with their forceful 'seizing power' Mars-Pluto themes, suggests that extreme caution is advised over the next three or so years in relation to our current titanic struggle to Keep Our Republic. To me if not to you, keeping our Republic is possible under a Biden administration but would be totally impossible under the yoke of another four years of authoritarian despot Trump.

That 'Republicans' (aka, Trumpians) and their comrades are super-sizing their election sabotage efforts in 2020 is an important feature and a basic imperative of their push toward establishing absolute power (which corrupts absolutely), a totalitarian rise the world has witnessed before. And as everyone knows, not learning from history dooms dumb-heads to repeat it. And this We The People must not do.

Agent Trump Wants Pal Putin's Russia Back in the G-7

June 30, 2020: For unknown reasons, I saved the following post as a draft but never completed or published it. So with the current news about Trump knowing for months that Putin had put bounties on the heads of US soldiers in Afghanistan but did and said nothing about it while continuing to tout Russia's re-entry into the G7 Group of nations I'm posting it today for whatever info it may add. Even US voters who somehow, beyond reason, prefer Trump in November cannot possibly be okay with this.

Original post begins here sans edits:

Collage: 'His American Majesty' by Jude Cowell

May 31, 2020: Citing current G7 members, economic royalist Trump has asserted that, "It's a very outdated group of countries" which makes yours truly wonder how "outdated" his nibs considers America to be 'under his watch.' That's not exactly what he meant, of course. He meant, Let's invite my comrade and favorite co-conspirator Putin to the party! He proposed including Australia and a couple of other countries to make things appear more legitimate as they talk behind China's back about the future of China, their alleged G7 intention.

Say, remember when Canada flatly rejected Trump's idea of allowing Russia back in? As you know, Russia was tossed out of the elite group of social tinkerers in 2014 for annexing Crimea, an ongoing tragedy as I type. See a related post Trump-Putin Alliance Threatens Current World Order. This is the entire globe's ongoing tragedy and I don't mean to imply that I consider China an outsider to "The big picture (that) commands a certain course of action which must be followed, very little option to do otherwise" (Tyl) which was timed for greater implementation all through 2017 into 2018 by transit Pluto conjunct 1993's Great Conjunction/s of Uranus and Neptune, the 'new world order' planets (18--20Cap). Perhaps those who could not 'see it' in 2017 are seeing draconian conditions starkly enforced in front of their faces in 2020 if they haven't before. And as you know, the current position of the Moon's South Node, aka, the tail of the dragon, is 29Sag13, a critical-crisis 29th degree (Sabian Symbol for '30Sag' = "The Pope Blessing the Faithful" as I'm certain he does; '30Sag' = negative expression: "inordinate love of self-display and surrender to a lust for power" (Jones).

Back to Trump's 'Movable Feast' G7 2020

Now so far I've discovered no definite date for a G7 meeting in September 2020 for it may not have been set yet, so we can't Moon-track the event today as we did in 2019 when Trump knocked noodles 'on the sidelines' with UK PM Boris Johnson. Apparently Trump prefers shadowy sidelines for his private whispers. Like ya do when you have many secrets and crimes to hide.

So as you know, sources are reporting that Trump's G7 2020 'plan' is to postpone G7 2020 'until at least September' from the original June 10, 2020 date and location at secure Camp David where barely a conspiratorial word can be whispered without a mic or camera picking it up - another reason for Trump and Putin to rock the G7 boat, yes?

With no definite date for G7 2020 (if you find one Please let me know!) we can at the least check the September 2020 Lunations (New and Full Moons) where we find that the month begins with a Full Moon @10Pis12 (September 2), an interesting cosmic occurrence since deceptive Neptune was @10Pisces opposite the 19 North Solar Eclipse that functioned as the Prenatal Eclipse of both Election 2016 and Inauguration 2017. Will new information be uncovered or leaked in September or late August concerning those significant events and/or the Trump-Putin love match? For Full Moons can reveal hidden things much as Lunar Eclipses, and New Moons can act in similar fashion to Solar Eclipses (Ovason). So you know what I always say around eclipse and lunation times? Peep-Eye!

Tragically, a Related Post: America, Neptune-Pluto, and Organized Crime. Also related: if Election 2020 is held at all, the Electoral College Is Set to Vote on December 14, 2020, an auspicious day of a difficult Solar Eclipse. Plus, here's a previous post concerning the learless feader: SOTU 2020 and Trump's SOTUs since 2017 and for health indicators you may wish to see The YOD in America's Solar Return 2020, a horoscope that functions for one year until July 2021.

June 25, 2020 Venus Direct: Trying to Save What's Left

DC Horoscope: June 25, 2020 Venus Rx Station Turns Direct @5Gem20:11 first moment at 2:48:01 am edt Washington DC; Hour of Venus, Rising in 1st House and Chart-Ruler with No Applying Aspects:

With this chart's Angles conjunct those of modern US Inauguration Horoscopes the significance of the June 2020 Venus Direct Horoscope is multiplied particularly in relation to the US, to Washington DC, the White House, and to The National Treasury for there are multiple financial indicators such as 9th house Pluto leading a Locomotive (a high-powered executive ruthlessly determined on success). Of course, wealthy manipulator Pluto conjoins Jupiter, the banker/politician/pastor/guru/The General/CEO planet, and, having crossed US Inauguration 2017's Midheaven ('MC': The Goal), transit Saturn Rx, planet of law and order, conjoins US Inaugural Sun @00AQ26/49. The first such conjunction occurred on April 3rd, the second of three exact conjunctions perfected on June 18, 2020, and the final Saturn-to-Sun (POTUS) conjunction arrives December 24, 2020 suggesting that 2020 is a period when responsibilities and consequences of past actions and decisions must be faced; it is a time of isolation for Donald Trump, political and professional, as well as physical. Yes, restriction, restraint, constraint, accountability, and maturity are demanded by lesson-bringer Saturn but with Trump's massive ego (Sun) and self-serving mindset, what are the chances he'll step up?

Besides, we know that Trump will not take Adam Schiff's recent advice and stay snugged within the White House bunker until the 2020 Election, thus causing no more harm! But perhaps ongoing lawsuits involving Trump's finances will cycle up and the miracle of holding criminals accountable for their crimes will be addressed and adjudicated by the legal system and/or lawmakers, both realms of legal-eagle Saturn.

Jupiter-Pluto and Jupiter-Saturn 2020

So as you see, the three Jupiter-Pluto Conjunctions of 2020 are in progress: exact on April 5, June 30, and November 12 in the degree range of 22-25 Capricorn, a highly sensitized and activated Zodiacal zone of late which emphasizes governmental, power/authority, legal, and investment issues in particular. Note the strongly influential midpoint picture penned on--Saturn-Pluto = Jupiter with potentials for "trouble with authority; adoption of the austere; staying out of trouble; and/or trying to save what's left" (Tyl). At 2017 Inaugural MC and this chart's MC (where US natal Pluto is enthroned since January 20, 1937), scandals, loss, and mourning are visible for the whole world to see during this time frame of America's fated, karmic struggle as We The People endure the loss of our nation's global status and reputation. And as you know, America and the world are in an old order vs new order phase which officially begins at Winter Solstice 2020 with the Great Conjunction of societal planets *Jupiter and Saturn. Washington DC Politics are front and center for us because the conjunction perfects upon US Presidential Sun, as noted. (For a few potential expressions, see their midpoint picture, below.) Perhaps you've thought or heard some politician or pundit remark about a 'new day' or a 'new world' - actually, there's 'a new vision fighting to be understood' (old Saturn + new Uranus = visionary Neptune) as the digital world is taking over society more than ever before.

Qs: Does the heavyweight trio at MC depict a destructive blend of the ruling class adopting additional austerity measures to oppress We The People while gifting themselves and their corporate pals and enablers with even more funds and tax breaks they don't need? As I've fussed on SO'W for years, bankrupting the United States is a primary goal of foreign and domestic zealots working toward anarchy and America's collapse (as did the Soviet Union in 1991: revenge). So does Pluto in Capricorn ('the dictator' placement--Ebertin) represent more than figurehead mobster Trump but also sorehead Putin in league with China? That's for you to decide, dear reader. I know what I think. But what do you think? As always, your on-topic comments are much appreciated (and are moderated for spam!)

Sun @4Cancer-Moon @24Leo

Now with Sun and Moon in mutual reception, some amount of friendliness is shown here between leadership (Sun) and the public (Moon), but not necessarily toward or from Trump. Note that Luna in dramatic Leo is about to conjoin Trump's natal Mars, then his Ascendant, and may trigger the Moon-Mars opposition that exists between cantankerous Trump (Mars rising) and the American people (Moon) so the friendliness could refer to his nibs but also to leaders other than his nibs. Another potentials is that friendliness is not felt by or toward everyone. Actually, when it comes to Trump, anger at being assaulted from or by the Oval Office (ruled by Venus!) is more like it for a majority of us. For his assaults are ongoing and are part of a larger plan. Plus, penned in the center of the chart is a midpoint picture of US natal Venus-Jupiter = transit Sun @4Cancer: "foreign raids on the treasury" (M. Munkasey).

As for June 25th's cosmic weather, a peek at its steamy, volatile Fire-Water Sun Cancer-Moon Leo blend of conscious-unconscious energies reveals tendencies toward clannishness, pride, and deep feelings. Zealotry and even jealousy may also be part of the cosmic picture (with Venus turning vicious and venal if scorned). The Sun is posited in a money house (2nd) with the fluctuating Moon in the 5th house of Speculation and Gambling - dramatic Leo's natural house - so we may be looking at another financial indicator with this blend's business shrewdness, plus, a devotion to family or clan. Showy Leo wants to risk and play while business-oriented Cancer tends to be more cautious, hiding in its emotional shell like a crab (like a bunker boy?). Moodiness, rejection of all criticism, and a need to 'rule the roost' are possible results of this combination. Yet another chart factor is that the Moon is unaspected (Ptolemaically speaking) which suggests an alienated, isolated, and/or estranged populace. Personally, I resemble that remark. Don't we all these days?

Matters of Health and Funding

Now as you see, other indications can be located within the horoscope which relate to health issues (inconjuncts, sesquisquares, and a semisquare) and infections (Mars-Neptune in watery Pisces, the duo fresh from their June 13th conjunction @20Pis59). Plus, we find disruption of family life, separations, isolation, and turmoil in society (see Uranus in Taurus opposing Inaugural 2017 Moon in Scorpio penned on). Yet with Venus rising and acting as chart-ruler (in greedy Taurus but in duplicitous Gemini - and also ruling 6th house) added to the prominent Pluto-Jupiter-Saturn trio at MC, the US is, as we know, experiencing a period of financial turmoil with Venus connected to currency, expenditures, luxury (or its lack), extravagance, smaller amounts of money, (diplomacy, relationships). As you see, her sign of Libra (balance!) is intercepted (karmic dealings which echoes the karmic trio at MC) in the 6th house of Health, Daily Rounds, Civil, Military, and Police Service. And as you know, the current Venus retrograde ('Rx') period (since May 13th @21Gem50) has spotlighted all these matters along with actions and non-actions of the US Congress which allegedly continues to control America's "purse strings".

However, we know that transit Venus won't reach and surpass her own shadow (where she turned Rx) until the last week of July so we'll see how financial and other societal conditions begin to alter once Lady Venus is again 'in the light' astrologically and heads toward her prominent role in the November 2020 Election/s. Meanwhile, funding and/or defunding of police departments turns up here as well, although for me, the word "re-allocation" of funds seems a more rational choice rather than allowing a lawless society to result as zealous Utopians and saboteurs would prefer. In addition, America's extravagant military funding is again being mentioned recently thanks to the ongoing protests against the death-by-police of George Floyd in Minneapolis, MN on May 25, 2020. Military and police funding and budgets are issues that bring Congress into this Venusian picture as America continues to borrow from China to keep our illusion of solvency going. Or should we include on our list of creditors one or more of the Middle Eastern regimes? America indebted to foreign actors: just what the Founding Fathers feared!

And of course, Trump's tangled finances and 'hidden' alliances have only made our nation's circumstances less transparent and unsustainable - and, sad to say, replete with paranoia and dread. He seems to be an extremely blackmail-able guy who'll do anything for money and power, no matter what it costs the American people.

Donald Trump is, in fact, too expensive to keep.

*December 21, 2020: transit Jupiter-Saturn = (Presidential/POTUS) Sun: "Taking destiny into one's own hands; major changes according to plan; or, if nothing has been prepared, becoming gripped by the status quo and having to make the best of things (Tyl).

Has America's Policing 'Style' Run Its Course?

Astrological Mars in the US: Masculine Planet of Police and Military Forces

by Jude Cowell

June 9, 2020: Readers of Stars Over Washington may recall mentions of America's natal Mars (22Gemini) turned retrograde (Rx) by progression since 2006, the exact date dependent upon which founding horoscope one uses for America. Since yours truly tends toward our July 4, 1776 charts (whatever hour) this gives US Mars Rx @18Libra (conjunct Trump's natal 2nd house Jupiter stationary with US natal Mars conjunct his 10th house Sun-NN-Uranus trio in Gemini; plus, his Mars rising @26Leo opposes US natal Moon--these are some of the cosmic conditions that caused me to warn against him in 2015/2016). And as you know, his Mars-infused aggression and oppression of We The People has only gotten worse, as predicted.

Simultaneously, the inward turning of testosterone--driven energies and motivations upon the populace (symbolically via SP Mars Rx) is seen through current police brutality against our citizens, and has been seen in our returning war veterans with broken bodies, hearts, and minds. America's Mars is weakened: Gemini Mars is ready for action while actions of a Libran Mars depend upon feelings and emotions often with a focus on what's fair and equal). How long will our Mars be Rx by progression? Approximately until year 2086 (2006 + 80).

And yet there is good news for American society!

For a re-invention of US police forces resonates positively with our SP Mars Rx. But let this particular Southerner say this: the disbanding and/or de-funding of US police departments in whole or in part would create just the anarchy the Utopian saboteurs and zealots have always wanted and are now working toward. So let's not hand it to them! Better to makes changes that directly address issues and solve them rather than scattering energies, missing the mark, and worsening negative conditions. A better change is to jettison the brutal officers who have been excused and sheltered by fellow officers and higher-ups for too long. They can usually be recognized by their slave patrol attitudes and cruel actions.

For more info, here is a June 8, 2020 segment from Thom Hartman asking, Should We Re-Invent or Disband America's Police?

And for even more info I recommend an overview of modern-day American police practices by certain officers with a 'rounding up runways slaves' mentality via a Bloomberg News op-ed by law Professor Stephen L. Carter, published October 29, 2015 asserting that, The debate on racism and law enforcement follows a clear line back to the antebellum South. Surely everyone in the whole wide world is aware of this! But Professor Carter's op-ed clearly lays out the history of the line, slave patrols and all. And naturally, some fault may be laid at the doorstep of the first slave trade of Angolans kidnapped and transported to Jamestown Colony in 1619 but that lies beyond the scope of this post.

Summer 2020 Musical Chairs: Jupiter-Saturn-Pluto Trio

by Jude Cowell (aka, Judith Cowell on FB)

Image: America's 'pyramid of power' topped by the 'all-seeing eye'

June 3, 2020: Well, isn't Trump having a high ole' time sending riot gear troops into US cities? His recent propaganda effort slash photo op (a thought experiment "hatched" by Trump eye candy Hope Hicks it is reported), fell flat as Trump's poll ratings. Meanwhile, the turbulence across America continues as peaceful protests are made worse by bad policing and masked instigators who are sent into crowds in order to commit violence and discredit actual protesters, aka, US citizens with rights.

It's an old political tactic often used to muddy clear waters.

So today let's take a look at the major heavyweight trio of transiting planets in late Capricorn (sign of government, law, business) that are traveling in a certain order today as I type but want to add here their midpoint picture potentials for their change of position ('musical chairs') coming soon to a Summer 2020 near you. Near us all:

June 3, 2020 in Capricorn, all Rx: Pluto 24:39-Jupiter 26:37-Saturn 1AQ31 but retreats into Capricorn July 2) so their midpoint picture is: Saturn-Pluto = Jupiter: 'religious and social fanaticism; inclination to sacrifice oneself for others; difficulties caused through illness; plain and simple'. (Note that transit Saturn is in process of stomping US POTUS (Inaugural) Sun, a period of resentment and antagonism toward anyone he feels is restricting his freedom! And is intended by karma to be a time when past mistakes are corrected. As if.)

Then a change occurs on June 30 when the second of 2020's Jupiter-Pluto Conjunctions perfects @24Cap06, exact @1:45 am edt. By 1:47 am edt, the trio places shifts positions which creates a new midpoint picture of potentials:

Jupiter-Saturn = Pluto: 'immense effort; violent changes; restriction; separation; people unafraid of any necessary trouble or work to attain the desired aims slowly but surely'.

And you know what I keep having to type in my posts of late: forewarned is forearmed.

Then by the third of the three Jupiter-Pluto Conjunctions on November 12, 2020 (horoscope shown), the power trio has shifted back to their Saturn-Pluto = Jupiter position and we can add 'overzealous oration' to the dystopian picture (aka, our Trump nightmare), among other indications.

Yes, imho, someone secretly in charge (Pluto) knew long ago that these indications were coming (karma) in 2020 and Trump was shoved into the White House because he was the crook who would conduct proceedings the most chaotic and evil way possible. And note that the above image with the all-seeing eye relates to America's natal Mercury-Pluto opposition of 1776. Our nation's 2022 Pluto Returns will repeat by transit 'Pluto opposite US natal Mercury' which suggests obsessed or troubled thoughts, changes in thinking and/or methods, and/or secret or confidential information misused. Obviously this is a picture of our younger generations under siege by decrepit plutocrats!

Now you, dear reader, may choose to disagree but there it is.

A Related Post: May 26, 2020 Horoscope: Pluto opposes US natal Mercury with power-craving Pluto opposing (challenging, injuring) our national Mercury, planet of young people (now in the streets!), ideas, and thinking (freedom of thought under siege by powerful plutocratic forces). Note that this opposition became exact only hours after the murder-by-cop of George Floyd in Minneapolis, the event that sparked the protests.

In His Greatest Role Trump Plays King Cyrus the Great!

Cyrus Frees the Jews; Jean Fouquet 1470 [Public domain]

As you know, in ancient times Cyrus the Great, King of Persia (the land westerners arrogantly call, Iran), freed the Jewish captives from Babylonia and allowed them to migrate home and build The Temple in Jerusalem.

And perhaps you also know that American evangelicals and Israel's Benjamin Netanyahu have linked Trump to King Cyrus based, one presumes, on his alleged "chosen one" status and his 2018 announcement of the relocation of Israel's capital from Tel Aviv to Jerusalem, thus fulfilling the Biblical 70-year prophecy of the fig tree. (State of Israel founded May 1948 + 70 years = May 2018.)

At least this is the sort of thing those using Trump as a tool are telling him to further their arrogant imperative to rush God into ending our corrupt world. To me it's the destructive spirit such people follow that leads them - and the rest of the world - to self-destruction. Yet in spite of their druthers, they are not the boss of God!

Plus, a comparison of Trump to King Cyrus falls woefully short once immigration issues are inspected more closely for we know that Trump's record on immigration, immigrants, and refugees is tattered to shreds by his cruel tactics and he's shown often that his intolerance of others knows no bounds. Alternately, King Cyrus was known as a promoter of human rights (a foreign concept to Trump) and as a "tolerant monarch" and while Trump thinks of himself as a monarch, exhibiting tolerance toward others does not apply to malignant narcissist Donald Trump, the Insulter.

False prophet, more like.

Well, that's my soapbox complaint on the matter. Because it occurs to me that when entities read prophecy, then set about manipulating people and events in order to make it appear that the prophecy is being fulfilled, the world is being head-faked, m'peops! So I pray that we can restrain the destructive urge to lemming ourselves en masse over a cliff with Pied Piper Trump tweeting the tune like the delirious Bacchus figure he is.

Trump Is What Happens When Americans Forget What Fascism Looks Like

Here's a recent Thom Hartmann segment with a discussion of fascism with information that unfortunately will probably pass unnoticed by the very Americans who need to hear it most:

~:~

Now here are 3 links to previous astro-posts concerning such topics:

1. Horoscope of the Third Reich (1933 into 2017) where you'll see the 1933 abomination's Ascendant with 1933 Chiron Rx rising along with Trump's 1946 natal Midheaven (his Goal) plus, enraged Algol dragging along, and the fascist entity's Midheaven @24Capricorn where the karmic Saturn-Pluto Conjunction will combine energies on January 12, 2020 @22Cap46 (conjunct Trump's natal Vertex 22:51, a point of fated encounters, changing work conditions, and/or wish fulfillment). 2020 Saturn-Pluto = 1933 MC suggests potentials for: severity; one-sidedness; separation (flight); a desire to rise from difficult circumstances (Ebertin). Like impeachment?

Well, I wonder if 'flight' could refer to a certain culprit hightailing it outta town because handcuffs await? (Trump's resignation would be an improvement--notwithstanding a Pence assumption to power, theocracy in tow.)

Thing is, the Reich's 24Cap Midheaven and nearby Venus act as the tail of a (ruthless, high-flying) Kite pattern (1933 MC = Saturn-Pluto 2020) with 1933 Pluto Rx @21Can59 as the Kite's nose. For Third Reich data I refer you to Campion chart #126 in The Book of World Horoscopes. Starkly speaking, this is a cosmic picture of the conflict between Good vs Evil playing out on Planet Earth...Love of Life vs the Cult of Death. I choose Life. How about you?

2. Another Thom Hartmann segment in which Thom sounded the alarm in 2016 by informing us that Trump Using 'The Big Lie' Tactic Invented by Goebbels which also contains a bit of complimentary Astrology added by yours truly, plus, for the curious a link to the natal horoscope of the misshapen Joseph Goebbels.

And 3. March 23, 1919: Mussolini's Fascist Party (an Eclipse Timeline).

The Most Important Moment in Robert Mueller's Testimony! - clip

July 24, 2019: former Special Counsel Robert Mueller testified today with the proceedings opening at 8:30 am edt just as royal Regulus arose over the Capitol Building Washington DC (as the star also does in the natal chart of a vengeful Donald Trump). Here are some thoughts about today's hearings from Jefferson Smith ably filling in for Thom Hartmann:

Of course you know that today's timing (8:30 am edt in DC) with Regulus rising places enraged star Algol of Medusa fame at Midheaven, the WHY? and/or Goal Point of any horoscope which echoes Trump's natal Midheaven conjunct Algol so my suspicion is that his nibs found several things to be simply furious about today in spite of what he might tweet as he (erroneously) claims 'exoneration'!

June 10, 2019 John Dean Invited to Capitol Hill

In case John Dean of WaterGate fame accepts Jerrold Nadler's invitation to speak on June 10th to the House Judiciary Committee on Capitol Hill, below is Mr. Dean's natal horoscope with June 10th transits set for 9:00 am edt snugged around it--not because the hearing will open at that hour (probably closer to 9:30 or 10:00 am) but because 9:00 am happens to be the time that Dean's natal Pluto @1Leo26 rises over the Capitol Building.

In other words, I'm using the June 10th horoscope as a symbolic chart of the power (Pluto) Mr. Dean may wield through providing information which could very well have a (plutonian) transformative effect on current rather stalled conditions.

See Democrats Bringing In Nixon Lawyer John Dean to Talk About the Mueller Report.

Now with the event's occurrence and timing being iffy as such Washington events tend to be I won't spend much time typing about it here, plus, quite a few basic chart notes are penned messily on the bi-wheel charts if you care to look. However, note that Dean's Venus @00Sag32 conjoins his natal Midheaven (The Goal) and rules his 3rd house of Communications via Taurus--and June 10th Venus @1Gem47 opposes his natal Venus (see lower right, highlighted in blue) which triggers opposing views and conflicts within relationships. Dean's natal Saturn, planet of authority, accountability, responsibility, law, and government conjuncts the 9:00 am Midheaven as he dutifully shares his opinions with the world (MC). This could be refreshing, who knows? For one thing, Dean will be highly motivated (transit Pluto trine natal Mars) as he expresses his diplomatic views blended with self-interest (transit Venus conjunct natal IC, the Foundation of the Matter). However, with the Moon in critical Virgo reflecting Dean's natal Mars-Neptune conjunction (8th house), images of crooks, treachery, and/or scandal may turn up in the news (Moon = the public; publicity) concerning this hearing or possible accusations of such may be hurled at Dean himself.

Now by transit on June 10th, most of us are dealing on some level with the Sun-Jupiter opposition squaring deceptive Neptune in Pisces (in John Dean's 1st house of Self) which suggests general potentials for loss, sensitivity, and the crooks we hear and read about each day (one ex: Nixon).

Plus, transit Mars conjunct North Node is lining up to oppose the difficult Saturn-Pluto conjunction (exact @22Cap46 on January 12, 2020--conjunct Trump's natal Vertex of fated encounters) which hints at the harshness, ruthlessness, and brutality now prevalent in society--and that someone is fighting for his very existence. I leave it to you, dear reader, to decide who that could possibly be as DC Democrats continue their careful attempts, slow as they seem, to hold a not-above-the-law president accountable for his actions.

Consulting The Tarot over Mr Trump and Mr Mueller

July 1, 2018: This morning I've been catching up on a variety of Tarot readings concerning outcomes for Donald Trump, Robert Mueller, and others in the news and it's been very interesting. However, I don't know enough about current Tarot readers to recommend one in particular to you but I do recommend astrologer Maxine Taylor's July 2018 Trumpology Report.

And as a former Tarot card reader myself, I took the liberty of asking a couple of questions on the topic of Trump and the Mueller investigation using my favored deck, Zerner-Farber's The Enchanted Tarot. I prefer the deck's psychological insights but when it comes to card images in the public domain, the Rider-Waite Tarot deck is what I found available so those are the cards you'll see, below.

Deciding to make my queries simple with a 3-card draw (past-present-future, plus a Wild Card for, Is there more info to be known at this time?), I proceeded using my limited skill as a Tarot reader with Question One: Is Donald Trump in danger? Here are the Answers:

Past = Ace of Wands--Initiation. Obviously this may refer to Inauguration 2017 when Trump took the Oath of Office to defend and protect the US Constitution or perhaps it reveals his membership in a group or a secret society or societies with a mission not publicly known. This card indicates the use of his instincts, which he says he does, and that he's been feeling his power and initiating new projects.

Present = 10 of Swords--Ruin. This card shows that Trump is very afraid that things won't work out for him--he may be in deep despair and feeling grief--or feeling aggrieved since he tends to see himself as a 'victim' when he thinks such a ploy will pay off. (At other times he's a huge 'winner' don't forget!) Basically, this card says that events are out of his control which unbalances him since he's accustomed to 'calling the shots' in his corporate world and he assumed that the presidency would give him total control over every situation and every person. Yet his usual manipulative tactics haven't worked as well with Special Counsel Robert Mueller and the Department of Justice--not so far anyway, even with transparent help from complicit congressional Republicans, sneaky political operatives, and on-air pundits. Understandably, ruin is what he most fears and with his own Prenatal Solar Eclipse repeating on July 12, 2018, unfortunate news, damning information, and/or more scandal may be leaked or revealed, and testimony may also be given...inconveniently for Mr. Trump who seems to drag along an environment of lies and delusions wherever he goes. Still, taking quick action can mitigate any negative results from this eclipse (Brady).

That 2 Old North (which heralded his birth in 1946 @9Gemini) perfects at this time in Moon-ruled Cancer (20:41) will tend to involve Trump family members and/or will concern something about his use of tribalism in Politics; that it conjoins Castor, one of the Gemini Twins, increases a sense of karma or fate attached to the eclipse and current events for even Mr. Trump must eventually reap what he has sown.

Future = 2 of Pentacles--Change. This card reminds us that all on Earth is temporary, maturity is needed for wise guidance, and that change is inevitable--plus, what goes up must come down. Change implies the disruptive Uranian nature of things and Mr. Trump is nothing if not Uranian for natal Uranus in Gemini is his guiding planet (or, oriental = last to rise before his Gemini Sun). And mutable Gemini loves change--and Uranian chaos can be useful, as Trumps knows. Perhaps the question is not whether change is or isn't on the way for Donald Trump but how suddenly and disruptively will it occur?

Trump's Wild Card = 3 of Pentacles--Work. This card suggests that an old friend or a co-worker will share in Trump's burdens or aid him in some way. It's a card of obstacles ahead and reveals that prejudices may hinder Trump's best results. Whether the 'sharing of burdens' includes a negative legal decision against Trump and others is not fully revealed to this Tarot reader though perhaps such a question may be asked as the investigation trundles on.

Now here is my second question for which I drew all Major Arcana cards: Is Robert Mueller in danger? Using the same card spread, here are the cards and Answers:

Past = 20 Judgement. The card of Judgement has obvious connections to Special Counsel Mueller and the Department of Justice and indicates that positive moves have been made and real advancement is possible via deliberate efforts because the time for change has come. That Russia made overtures and other intrusions upon Campaign 2016 and that Trump has had financial and other ties to foreign countries such as Russia doesn't seem to be in dispute. Yet the American people must depend on the Mueller investigation to hopefully 'lay all the cards on the table' concerning Mr. Trump and his 'red' ties, if there be any.

Present = 18 The Moon. Although the path ahead looks mighty treacherous (and it is--look who Mr. Mueller is dealing with--domestic and international criminal syndicates) there are hidden opportunities along the way--and information yet to be publicly disclosed. This card shows that this is "the darkness before the dawn" but there remain challenges ahead. In The Enchanted Tarot the card relates to 'the Moon Witch' which amuses me due to Trump's multitude of whines that the investigation is merely a "witch hunt"--and this card says that the Moon Witch is crying and in despair because (she) has "so wrongly been thought to be a malicious Moon Witch" something that could refer to either Trump or Mueller (though I doubt Mr. Mueller is crying!) Even so, 'witches' have been indicted and this card shows that a protective light surrounds the path and leads the way ahead--although one concern I have is for Mr. Mueller's family and the possibility that intimidation and threat could be used in order to change Mueller's behavior in these matters. Beware Treachery!

Future = 5 The Hierophant. Here is the card of "The Father Confessor"! Reliable and faithful to his values, he acts to preserve traditions, codified laws, and the moral standards of our predecessors--all the things under assault by Trump and his co-conspirators. If you believe The Hierophant describes Robert Mueller, then we're on the same page!

Mueller's Wild Card = 6 The Lovers. This card suggests two allurements, two choices that must be made between vice and virtue. Dissatisfaction in relationship may be a factor here which could involve a choice within a work relationship or a personal one--probably a personal one though another separation from the Mueller Team is a potential. However, drawing this card only increases my feeling that intimidation or a threat may be made toward Mr. Mueller's loved ones although of course I hope I'm wrong. Does danger to a partner or some kind of separation or scandal lie ahead? If so, it seems doubtful to me that Mr. Mueller as Hierophant will be averted from his moonlit path for his strong sense of duty calls him on. Yet who could deny that Trump and his backers will try anything to save The Don's hide?

'Cosmic Blink' Eclipses Are The 'Wild Cards of the Universe'

Yet events can spiral out of Trump's control more disastrously quite soon for the Cosmos has something revealing up its sleeve with August's The Tower Solar Eclipse! Yes, it's a one-two cosmic punch for Mr. Trump--the July 12th Solar Eclipse linked above (under 'Ruin')--so personal to him because it repeats in his own Saros Series, plus, the 'collapse of structures and lifestyles' suggested by The Tower Eclipse of August 11, 2018--in proud, boastful Leo. And as you know, Tarot card 16 The Tower provides a suitable image depicting such an event which relates personally to tower-builder Trump whose political 'house of cards' may soon be turned to dust and rubble though, if so, no glee will be felt by yours truly since our nation must rise or fall along with the current pilot of our Blimp of State for he and we must reap what's been sown:

"I tremble for my country when I reflect that God is just; that His justice cannot sleep forever." - Thomas Jefferson.

And so must we all.
