Appeasing a bully is like paying a blackmailer: they always want more. jc
After the so-called "Alaska Summit" recently between supplicant D. Tr*mp and Russia's dictator V. Put*n, some pundits have called the photo op for the Russian dictator "appeasement" which recalls the historical appeasement of A. Hitler by Britain's PM Neville Chamberlain. Needless to say, comparisons between the two events are being made.
Yet this limited Monday post isn't the time or place to delve into details of how PM Chamberlain returned to the UK with the Munich Agreement (signed September 30, 1938) which ceded part of Czechoslovakia to aggressive Germany. Meanwhile, Tr*mp apparently is ready to hand aggressive Put*n part or parts of Ukraine (as if they're Donny J's to give - perhaps it's symbolic).
So let's take a look at Neville Chamberlain's natal chart and a bi-wheel with his Prenatal Eclipse (PE = 15 South; themes are listed) surrounded by a noon horoscope of the Munich Agreement of 1938 (noting that Czechoslovakia was left out of the to-do just as the Put*n-Tr*mp "Alaska Summit" left Ukraine out of the "diplomatic" picture).
Gracious plenty astro-notes are squooshed upon the charts for the curious reader including a few 1938 to 1869 midpoint pictures, plus, we find that DJT's natal Neptune horns in at the Sun-MC point (wrong objectives; apathy) in 4th house:
In closing, I should add that the 12 South 1938 Solar Eclipse of the Munich Agreement is not shown on the chart but it would be in 11th house @7Gemini conjunct US 1776 Uranus.
Astro-Note: Campion's The Book of World Horoscopes (#ad) contains 6 horoscopes for Czechoslovakia (from #076, October 18, 1918 to #080, the Czech Republic January 1, 1993 during the Uranus-Neptune Conjunctions of 1993). Basically, this provides us with a Timeline of History via horoscopes. jc
