Tr*mp accused of forcing a 'hostile takeover' of USPS by pressuring them to appoint FedEx board member as postmaster explains current machinations toward the (ill-advised) privatization of the venerable service we all depend upon. As usual, for authoritarian plutocrats in the US (where the money is) "making out like bandits" is their favorite activity.
Solar Arc Directions = External Forces
So with pressure from anti-American saboteurs continuing against the very existence of the US Postal Service via demanding its privatization, let's check out the current Solar Arc Directions for the institution which has served the public well since its founding on July 26, 1775, Philadelphia, PA - with Benjamin Franklin appointed first Post Master.
A "12:00 pm" hour is used to progress the Directed planets, and as you see, SA (Solar Arc) Pluto @4Lib11 conjuncts USPS Saturn, SA Moon @3Ari11 opposes USPS Saturn (due to the Moon-Pluto opposition of July 26, 1775), and SA Saturn @13Gem10 conjuncts USPS Jupiter.
Brief descriptions of these planetary influences are listed on the bi-wheel:
We should also mention that SA Jupiter ($$) is within orb of USPS South Node, a Saturnian point of separation with potentials for loss and/or theft, plus, you'll spy other cosmic time links, I'm quite certain - especially if you wish to gain a fuller picture by adding Secondary Progressions, transits, and other methods of investigation.
Also notable is the Solar Eclipse in the 11 South Saros Series under which the USPS was founded (and under which the American Revolution began) with difficult themes of system failure and new methods and ideas are needed to deal with events - and, "any blocks can be tragically or violently removed" (B. Brady).
Then as we've discussed in previous SO'W posts, an 11 South Eclipse and its themes repeat August 2, 2027 @9Leo55 conjunct Mr. T's 12th house midpoint picture: (Underworld planet of criminality) Pluto = Mars-Saturn of death, destruction, rage, and "the intervention of a higher power" (R. Ebertin).
And yes, as always, we'll be needing the US Postal Service for significant events such as Midterms 2026.
"Winning" at Any Cost
Then perhaps that's part of reich-wing efforts against the USPS since traditionally, more US voters of the democratic persuasion use mail-in ballots.
