For my Friday end-of-the-week post today, here's a bi-wheel showing a certain Historical Horoscope of 1787 surrounded by the upcoming Jupiter Return to the US Constitution Horoscope of September 17, 1787 with 5th house Jupiter @25Gem22 ("26 Gemini" = "Winter Frost in the Woods" - see lower right corner for brief details).
Now I agree with you that too many astro-notes are squooshed upon the charts, and if my ink levels weren't low, I'd add an unmarked bi-wheel to this post. Perhaps I'll do this later if it would be useful to anyone. Meanwhile:
Constitutional Crises and a "YOD" with Uranus-NN's Radical Political Reforms
No, it's not a traditional YOD pattern of crisis with North Node and Midheaven involved with only one planet - chaotic, zealous, disruptive Uranus. But we can still read it as a midpoint picture of radical change with outlet for its intense energies of social reform (Uran-NN sextile) at the Public Status/Career Point.
Also notable is the double emphasis on the Mercury-Pluto midpoint (total surveillance; keen judgment) in both charts: conjunct Midheaven (MC) in 1787, and conjunct North Node in 2025. Details for the curious reader are written in the center of the chart and lower left corner.
Now as you know, a planetary return emphasizes the original aspects to and from the returning planet. However in this case, I've listed the 2025 aspects to Jupiter on the right side of the chart: trine Moon, square Saturn and North Node, sextile Chiron.
One reason is that I believe the 2025 aspects to Jupiter are more prominent because in the 1787 chart, Jupiter @25Gem22 is unaspected (see below). This condition suggests that the judgment function of Jupiter is limited (in changeable Gemini: likely describes the Court's pros vs cons tendency during deliberations).
However, the 10th house Moon in Jupiter-ruled Sagittarius lends support to Jupiter's higher qualities (ex: The Hierophant; the Judge - but leaving religion out of it!) while the expansive planet's 5th house position allows uplift via the principled idealism of The Enlightenment that we have come to expect from this document's higher principles - and these are precisely what the document's enemies are determined to destroy.
Moon-to-Saturn and Mars-to-Pluto
So besides Jupiter's activities on May 19, 2025, there are at least three major transits to the document's first house Pluto and Saturn, plus, to its IC: Moon conjunct 1787 Saturn (brief notes are listed - but add strategy, direction, and depression and/or oppression), transit Mars in 7th house @14Leo52 opposite 1787 Pluto which identifies potentials for contests of wills, assaults and other hostile actions - and describes the ego-based male personages engaging in such behavior against the power of the US Constitution.
Uranus to IC: Turbulence, Turmoil, Unrest
Then there's transit Uranus conjunct US Constitution's 1787 Immum Coeli (IC), the Foundation Point of the 1787 horoscope and document. Obviously, this is a foundation-shaking transit when unpredictablity, instability, and disruption of principles (and judgment!) are all that can be reliably predicted. We should also add that it's actually on May 14, 2025 that the Uranus transit to IC became exact and is the third of three conjunctions to 1787's IC - the first conjunction occurred on August 13, 2024 and the second on September 20, 2024 so we may wish to use the denial-acceptance-resolution method of analysis for this difficult transit. Yes, it has happened in past years, but this time, malicious enemies of America are in charge and doing all the damage they can.
As for the Constitution's current Jupiter Return, operative until May 19, 2025, it perfected on June 5, 2013 with Jupiter unaspected, as noted above.
What's a prominent event of 2013? My vote is for The Second Inauguration of Barack Obama.
And finally for your weekend, there's the fighter jet being named after you-know-who: the F-47 - with a double meaning that most people across the globe can really appreciate, if you know what I mean!
