Of Ancient and Future Purges

by Jude Cowell, partisan for the common good

With purges of non-believers awaiting threatened implementation in the US, and the involvement of the Catholic Church a given (exs: Opus Dei; anti-abortion laws no matter who suffers or dies: the persecution of women and families), this post is a limited consideration of certain historical horoscopes for a daring reader such as yourself.

Re: 1478-1834-1929-2001-2019-2025

For hundreds of years, the Spanish Inquisition, requested by Catholic monarchs King Ferdinand II of Aragon and Isabella I, persecuted and tortured people in order to strengthen their hold on power. Begun under the auspices of an obsessive 3 North Solar Eclipse, the brutal activities of 1478 were intended to purge those who preferred their own religions rather than bowing down to the Pope in Rome once Pope Sixtus IV issued a papal bull giving authority to inquisitors who would commit the atrocities. (Actually, the first Spanish Inquisition tribunal became active in Seville in 1480, so follow the above link to read more on the topic, if you wish.)

Meanwhile, this post displays a dual image of the November 1, 1478 Horoscope (lower left) along with the official ending Horoscope of the Spanish Inquisition July 15, 1834 (upper right) for your consideration; the following charts are set for 12:00 pm Rome, Italy:

Below, a second image, a bi-wheel, displays the July 29, 1478 chart of the 3 North Solar Eclipse (@14Leo31; inner) surrounded by the Vatican City State Horoscope of June 7, 1929 (Campion #384; outer). As we see, there are planetary contacts between the events - what I tend to label "cosmic time links":

Significantly, the Vatican City State of 1929 was established under the influence of a May 9th 3 North Eclipse - @18Tau07. Eclipses in Taurus tend to emphasize bullheadedness and inflexibility along with the more negative traits of greed and intolerance (R. Lineman).

Planetary Contacts: 1929 to 1478

First up: 1929 Mars conjunct the 3 North Eclipse of 1478 (violent tendencies; headstrong impulses; rushing into activities without considering ultimate consequences or the karmic implications). We could even count 1929 Jupiter opposing 1478 Neptune for it identifies the brutal purging campaign of 1478 and beyond as a fantastic scheme of fanaticism and distortion of confidential information with a bizarre religious component. Sounds like maga politics circa now, doesn't it?

3 North: 1478-1929-2001 (and July 2019 @11Cancer)

Further information is found within 3 North's themes: obsessive energy; news that transforms a situation; young people may be involved; large plans are wanted but don't get carried away (paraphrasing B. Brady). Perhaps you recognize 3 North as 9/11/01's Eclipse Series when the Bush-Cheney regime got carried away and deceitfully led our country to invasion, war, and torture (ex: the notorious Abu Ghraib prison) - and theirs were misdirected energies that missed the mark! (a tendency of the US 1776 Mars-Neptune square: fog of war).

So with aggressive Mars in ego-prone Leo, the primary link between the events of 1478 and 2001 is torture which met with little more success in 2001 than in 1478. Yet a degradation of society, a lifting up of lies and deception, and an increase of fear and paranoia in society here and abroad were certainly outcomes to my way of thinking. In the US going into 2025, similar conditions will follow with the degradation of American society - and of the US Presidency and Government - their obvious goals - plus, the promised purging of non-believers via their authoritarian Project 2025 agenda. As you know, cult membership is demanded.

Another planetary contact is that Vatican City State's 1929 Jupiter @28Tau49 is basically a Jupiter Return to 1478 Jupiter, a time when rewards are expected as a new 12-year cycle begins - here Jupiter is in Taurus (the bull - like Ferdinand!), a sign of financial interests, greed, and grubbing for gains. The love of money is the root of all evil - and the 1478 Inquisition's Jupiter Return occurred on June 4, 1929 with two aspects to 1929 Jupiter: a Jupiter-Saturn inconjunct (rigid, legalistic, fearful of competition - A. Epstein), and a Moon-Jupiter trine (attaining higher knowledge; contentment; a ray of hope - A.E.)

In closing, we should also note the Vatican City State's Neptune @28Leo48 nearing 1478 Mercury Rx @00Vir32. This transit signifies potentials for deception, an inability to grasp reality, living in fantasy worlds, confusion, and strange or mysterious conditions.

Well, there's a look at ancient and future purges as We the People face threats of persecution, loss, and hardship, as the wealthy Mr. Musk describes it. So if you made it to the end of this dreary post, my Thanks! Yet our circumstances wouldn't seem nearly as dreary if a mobbed-up criminal weren't about to re-enter and re-soil the White House. You may not agree with this, but there it is. jc

Are We Waiting for the Empire to End or Witnessing It?

"The New Rome - America, the Reluctant Empire

When the annals of the United States are written, its transition from republic to empire is likely to warrant special attention."

So says a page I had lost track of but re-discovered last evening titled, The Empire Never Ended. On the page there are several sections and topics which provide quite an overview of empires (Roman, American, Ottoman, etc), plus, the imperial eagle, the Vatican, the American Revolution, the hill called 'Rome' that Freemason George Washington selected for the site of Washington DC ('Jenkins Heights' by then), Master Mason George and his habitual cornerstone laying, occult doctrines of the Nazis, NATO (more than meets the usual eye), the fall of the USSR, the cuss'ed 'new world order', and much more. Tragically, such topics and events have cycled 'round again as history in the New Millennium rhymes disturbingly with past events which may be viewed through and influenced by eclipses. Meanwhile, socio-pathic, anti-democracy saboteurs and global criminals lurk in the White House and on Capitol Hill, brazenly defying principles, traditions, and the established laws of our nation. It's now use it or lose it time, my fellow Americans.

However, we know that there are larger forces at work and it seems our nation has come down to Norvus Ordo Seclorum 1776 -- __?__. Well, perhaps one cosmic timing shall appear via another Great American Eclipse in 2024. Or not. You decide. If you can. Because I'd rather not. If it's all the same.

Yet be that as it may or may not be, the page cites two books long inhabiting my bookcase, and I find much of the information on 'The Empire Never Ended' page intriguing although you may choose to disagree. Even so, I want to give both hapless and on-purpose readers of SO'W (newbies! regulars!) a heads-up on some very interesting information for the curious reader who dares check out such a page of thought-provoking content. And remember--I don't personally have to agree with other people's content (or not with all of it) in order to pass the content on to you for your consideration.

And in case you're wondering, the two books cited on the page are David Ovason's The Secret Architecture of Our Nation's Capital and Michael Howard's The Occult Conspiracy, both classics of the genre.

Now here's a closely related post from August 2010 (when we were both much younger), Washington DC a 'New Rome'? Altair the Eagle says, Yes which includes a dual image of two horoscopes showing a cosmic picture of a major change to America's presidential inaugurations established by President Franklin Delano Roosevelt - between his 1st 1933 Inauguration with Sun (POTUS) @13Pis41 (conjunct Achernar: risk of rapid endings; crisis) and his 2nd 1937 Inauguration with Sun (POTUS) @00AQ15 (conjunct Altair the Eagle: boldness--and symbol of imperial empires, as we were discussing). Plus, on March 4, 1933 in Washington DC, 00Can26 arose at noon est (a Cardinal World Point of manifestation, recognition, fame, and fortune--ruled by the Moon: We The People) but on January 20, 1937, 13Tau19 (materialistic money sign, Taurus) peeked over the horizon as the Oath of Office was taken by Freemason FDR and apparently pagan goddess Venus took over the Venusian Oval Office and the US presidency--if she hadn't had an all-access pass already.

And in case you're curious, radical Uranus in the 1937 horoscope clocked in @5Tau38 so we know that with transit Uranus now in early Taurus, we've had two recent Uranus Returns to that degree, horoscope, and presidency--with a final one to go:

1. June 23, 2019; 2. October 1, 2019; and 3. April 9, 2020.

So yes, many Trumpish things have been groan-worthy enough this year with negative reforms forced upon and against us by a variety of predators but it's that last return we must watch out for now particularly considering that its Syzygy Moon, a Full Moon @18Lib43 on April 7, 2020, conjoins and spotlights the greedy, trouble-making, boundary-breaking natal Jupiter of Donald Trump (@18Lib27). And for background vibes, the third return's Prenatal Solar Eclipse is the December 26th 'Christmas Eclipse' of 2019 @4Cap04 in the 3 South Saros Series with its themes of 'traumatic transformation' and 'sudden endings' (Brady). There we are assured that certain conditions and events will proceed from 2019 into 2020; meanwhile, a majority of Americans and decent people everywhere fervently desire to be rid of the bad rubbish in one way or another that is the faithless mobster inhabiting the White House.

And rounding up 18Lib27 to '19Libra' we have his Jupiter's Sabian Symbol: "A Gang of Robbers in Hiding" with the negative expression of, "abnormal distrust of everything worthwhile" (Jones).

Yes, Trump works and tweets hard attempting to infect everyone with his distrust but let's not let him. Shall we not?

May 25, 2017 Gemini New Moon: Trump on a Pilgrimage

Horoscope: Thursday May 25, 2017 New Moon @4Gem46 3:44:24 pm edt Washington DC; Hour of Mars (out-of-bounds); chart-ruler Venus @19Ari14, the diplomat, in 7th house of Alliances and Open Enemies applies twice: 1. trine Saturn Rx in 3rd house = long-lasting alliances may be formed based on mutual commitments and goals; someone's accomplishments are favored or rewarded; 2. conjunct Uranus @26Ari42 in 7th house = unorthodox or non-traditional alliances are formed, group organizations are favored unless negative factors interfere.

Please enlarge the chart for details that are not discussed in this text.

While the Cat's Away

As you know, Mr. Trump left the US on Friday May 19, 2017 for a 9-day tour overseas, or as this New Moon's 'YOD' pattern suggests he left "on a pilgrimage" via apex Jupiter Rx in Libra (his natal Jupiter @17Lib27 at Direct Station and the third conjunction in his three-fer Jupiter Return 2016/2017 due on August 4th) --see lower left for my notes; Jupiter apex in a YOD pattern (special task; crossroads; turning point; crisis if mishandled--the New Moon Jupiter as the handle of a Bucket describes an important direction of interest and links the two hemispheres of the chart). Since he's visiting Saudi Arabia (Islam) and dares to make a speech on their religion (God help us), checks out Israel in his superficial way, and, as US presidents do, bows to the Pope in the Vatican, a religious 'pilgrimage' seems a totally appropriate way to describe this perspective-broadening voyage.

Gemini is the sign of travel (especially air travel) and boundary-ignoring Jupiter does love to travel and expand his influence--here, in Airy Libra, sign of Diplomacy.

Plus, on another level, astrological Jupiter may also represent priests and gurus, so there's that. A bunch of bigwig Jupiterians face to face with shared goals in mind--what could possibly go wrong? Maybe Mr. Trump's natal Mercury-Neptune square might cause trouble for his square is echoed at the base of this YOD by a Mercury-Neptune sextile of opportunity. But for him (and thus for America) the beneficial influence of the sextile with its curiosity and communication skill can be hampered by Trump's square with its misconceptions, fantasies, and his personal version of the truth.

Actually, we've previously discussed the May 25th New Moon which perfects as the unpredictable Mr. Trump, political and diplomatic amateur, makes an appearance at the NATO Summit in Brussels, Belgium where he will expect to be the most famous person in the room.

Also see As Italy Prepares for the G7 Summit, It's Trump vs the Volcano and What to Expect from Trump's First Overseas Trip.

What a tour for his nibs! Full of so many chances for the bristling Mr. Trump's exhausting Uranian quirkiness and misspeaks that can so easily complicate an already complicated and sensitive world.

Astro-Note: The New Moon of May 25, 2017 perfects at 9:44 pm CEDT in Brussels, Belgium; ASC 6Sag58; MC 4Lib22; New Moon in 6th house; Saturn Rx rising in 1st house, and Bucket handle Jupiter Rx in the 10th house of Public Status and as chart-ruler, Jupiter has no application but stands alone; the difficult Mars-Saturn opposition lies across the 1/7 axis of Partnerships and Alliances in Brussels suggesting unstable stop-go, off-again-on-again level of energy.

Is Capitalism Terrorism Against All Humanity? - video interview

August 5, 2016: Thom Hartmann interviews Marianne Williamson, author of Tears to Triumph on such topics as Capitalism, terrorism, separation of church and state, religion in politics traditionally, and religion in the current 2016 Campaign.

References to Thomas Jefferson, President John F. Kennedy, and Pope Francis I are included. For astrologers, the oppressive, exploitative pair of Plutocracy and power, Pluto/Chiron with its habitual use of primal violence and racism, lurks behind the political and social curtain:

House passes Health Bill with Hygeia rising

Last evening at 11:07 pm est when the required 218 votes clocked in on the House as shown on C-SPAN, I was watching an animated chart of the scene. When Speaker Nancy Pelosi announced the 15-minute vote had passed the bill, it was 11:15 pm.

At 11:15 pm est in the Capitol Building, 15Leo21 - the Heart of the Lion - was on the Ascendant with rising asteroid Hygeia 20Leo31, an appropriate picture of the proceedings. Eagle Point (15Leo) rising, transiting Saturn at a World Point of prominence 00Lib59 (just gone into 2nd house) conjunct US natal Mc in our 'Sibly' chart.

And at 11:07 pm President Obama's natal Sun was rising indicating a definite point scored for him. Saturn (the Democrats) continues his sit-in upon US natal Mc in the 'Sibly' chart - legislative (Saturn) success at the pinnacle (Mc) for the Dems - but hold on, Myrtle, there's that nasty square from transiting Pluto to consider.

Yet helpfully, string-pulling power-broker Pluto is making an applying aspect of opportunity with Lady Venus, a sextile (60 degr), so it's all good...for now.

Chart-ruler Sun 15Sco53 (the Eagle Point) has voting Mercury 17Sco37 nearby in 4th house. Mars 10Leo12 has just arisen and hides in 12th house (the lone Republican who voted for the bill?) Mars is loosely opposing Jupiter 18AQ17 on the Desc; Jupiter is finally off his Direct Station degree of Oct 14 (17AQ10.)

Since changing direction, Jupiterian issues have moved forward - ideals, expansion, and money.

This forms a T-Square of Mars/Jupiter pointing to an apex Sun...

Mars/Jup = Sun: organizational talent; leadership; success; resolving to correct errors of judgment; receiving respect; strong determination about life's objectives. (Munkasey; Tyl.)

Now this T-square indicates a waning (separating) square to the Sun (the lone Republican's blockage to bill's passage removed?) and an applying/waxing square from Jupiter, the planet that represents the GOP in a national chart. The Senate (Jup) has its role to play in stymieing positive reform on behalf of the American people, and at 2A23, it should be in the first part of the upcoming week that we hear of it - beginning on Monday, Nov 9 and probably bright and early, too.

And of course with moneybags Jupiter, costs will be all important. I can imagine that some senators are chomping at the bit to begin making their undermining statements and promoting more confusions for the Neptunian cameras. They must be furiously finalizing their talking points this very Sunday so they'll be loaded for donkey come time to spout.

In fact, the Aquarian trio traveling in tandem these days, Jupiter, Chiron (the healer), and Neptune are all squaring the Sun and Mercury in last evening's chart by sign if not degree, along with tr *Pandora whose action is expansive in similar fashion to Jupiter's abundane which can soon become over-abundance with Pandora's influence.

Moon (the people) is in 12th house @ 26Can23 but passed beyond the separative South Node. Perhpas we-the-people weren't paying as much attention as we might have been (12th house, the house of Hospitals) to last evening's vote. Venus has just entered Scorpio, sign of surgeries and big business...which brings me to my main beef about the 'House passes Health Bill' situation of Nov 7:

The Sun arose on Nov 7, 2009 with a Fixed Star that relates to social reforms and social justice...Zuben Eschemali which has a twin Star, Zuben Elgenubi.

Z. Eschemali's interest in social reform is the more mercenary side of the picture with highly idealistic changes being made for personal gain with strong power motives. (Brady's Fixed Stars.) Z. Elgenubi's influence would indicate selflessness (but we are talking about self-serving politicians, after all.)

Z. Eschemali is the Beta Star of Libra, Z. Elgenubi is the Alpha Star. Here we have the Beta Star active, the mercenary side of the deal.

Uranus 22Pis56 Rx is in 8th house of Debt, Insurance, Credit, Shared Resources, Transformation, Death, so disruption and the unexpected may be expected concerning this legislation particularly with money matters.

Yet quirky, progressive Uranus trines the House bill's Sun (7A03) and Mercury (5A19) and federal funding for abortion may be the Death matter shown in the chart, waiting for the Senate to take it up. Last evening's Sun/Mercury/Uranus trines may show the Ds working out terms on abortion funding with the Vatican.

With tr Neptune conjunct US natal Moon these days, not much is as it seems, and of course Neptune is associated with mass media and propaganda as well as representing the masses, aka the collective. But it's for certain that Neptunian loss, theft, and veiling of true motives are part of the environment now...especially in the Capitol Hill corridors of power.

And I do think that Astrology has just uncovered Capitol Hillers' motives of the Zuben Eschemali kind.

In the case of Capitol Hill, just get the Fed to print more money and spend it beyond all reason.

Signposts on the NWO Highway

Have you spied any Signposts on the the NWO Highway?

The Vatican and secret societies became legally enmeshed on November 27, 1987, when Pope John Paul II issued a 'papal bull' which legalized secret society membership for Roman Catholics.

Now most of what you'll find revealed in the above-linked article was authored by writers of the Catholic persuasion, not by blogging Protestant gnats like myself. Yet Vatican historical records are easy to trace so it isn't as if the occurrence isn't on the historical record - anyone can read it.

But as always with secret societies and those promoting them while hiding their true natures and purposes, the 'devil is in the details' (literally) and motive is everything. The pyramid of power retains its intrinsic uses, among which is the leadership's imperative to keep top dogs on top.

The Vatican has always said it doesn't 'use' Astrology, but come on now - why are there so many natal charts of popes with correct birth times available if the charts weren't sanctioned by higher-ups? They suppressed the study and use of Astrology among the populace through the centuries to keep its power within their own claws.

Control but obfuscate your control!

Even Alice Bailey wised up after establishing a press to publish her Astrology and Theosophist books and those of Madame Blavatsky - the press was named 'Lucifer Trust' when founded in 1922, yet she then thought better of it and renamed it 'Lucis Trust.' Hello? Hades calling. "Age of Aquarius," my patootie, and America's Masonic roots are showing.

1987? You know I'm thinking, Reagan. Mr. Evangelical Right. Church doctrines becoming mushed together as if all spiritual teachings mean nothing or are all the same anyway which is part of Lucifer's plan. Reagan's famous "Morning in America" may be code words for Lucifer as the Morning Star. Coming out of Washington, we see from our 2008/09 perspective that 'Mourning' is more like it - direct from Capitol Hill to Main Street America, with trillions of taxpayer dollars surreptitiously deposited in the banks on Wall Street. ~:~

Today is Nov 15, 2009 and I'm refurbishing this Draft for publishing today. Washington's Health Insurance Reform debate is raging with 'funds for abortion' at the top of every demagogue's list of writing and talking points.

Now I don't intend to say that every politician who opposes public funds being provided for abortion isn't expressing a deeply held conviction from his heart...perhaps a few of them fall into this category on behalf of their own consciences rather than as party-promo tools determined to undermine the opposition.

(I write from the viewpoint that both 'parties' in the US are merely factions of the same plutocratic, draconian monster's NWO team of cheerleaders.)

What I'm saying is that the Roman Catholic Church's long-term insistence on allowing a populace to fruitfully multiply and increase Catholic attendance rolls has been known for ages; that Capitol Hill-ers are under the sway of the Vatican on the abortion issue is one seldom-discussed facet of the ever-scandalizing political circus we call the US oligarchy which masquerades as a (pseudo-) democracy and condescends to tell other nations how to root out corruption and fraud from their governments!

Such a herd of cheeky monkeys are we.

Well, if 'it takes one to know one' then Washington politicians, diplomats, and other operatives certainly should know fraud when they export it. Shouldn't they?

why Friday the 13th?

jacquesdemolay.org has info on Jacques DeMolay, the Knights Templar's Grand Master and his betrayal into the Church's grasp on Friday, October 13, 1307 while a major Saturn-Uranus-Neptune conjunction was in progress.

Apparently those who are superstitious have been marking the date ever since whether they know it or not...and this October will be its 700th anniversary!

Pope says he's Numero Uno

Lest the world forget: Pope Benedict signed yet another document promoting the Catholic Church as the only 'true' church...so there, you Protestants and 'Orthodoxants' with your "wound" of not recognizing the pope as primal ("wound" = Chiron, which is conjunct Jupiter in Pisces in the Vatican II's natal chart. If anyone wants to see the natal chart, let me know and I'll post it.)

Pope says other Christians aren't Christians, so there and some analysts think he may have signed yet another "I'm Numero Uno" document now because of internal church politics.

Or maybe it's those dwindling church coffers added to a boatload of egotism?


And who can forget the heady days of the New Millenium when John Paul called for the New World Order?

lookin' for luv: Bush leaves for Europe

He can't get enough luv in America these days but who's minding the regime while Bush is in Europe for the pontificating, hydra-headed G-8-We're-Great Summit?

The AP has what the Bushies want you to know about it as Bush Heads to Europe for G-8 Summit while modestly admitting that he's pining for some adulation, a semblance of which may be found in the impoverished democracy of Georgia...on a thoroughfare they now call George W. Bush Avenue of all things.

Highway to H*ll would be more descriptive. Wonder what it's called by the good people of Georgia? World Leaders Su*k Street?

But of course the Summit supposedly centers around the Bush and the Putin being in a (staged) "spat" about the US's nebulous missile defense system which Putin says will turn Europe in to a "powder keg" and it's simply forcing Russia to muscle up militarily for "a new arms race"! Bush is "forcing" him to power up--seemingly against his (iron) will, poor thing!!

They craftily keep reminding each other that the "Cold War" is over--but they act more like, long live the "Cold War." Oh, the complexities of leadership, we're to think philosophically (insert yawn.)

And let us not forget the Vatican's wishes--and that the pope's ring does need a reach-around shining by George while he's in the neighborhood (as previously posted):

Pope calls for New World Order.

Seems more likely to little me that Bush, Putin, and friends are in cahoots in the militarization of space for world domination...but it's their acting techniques that really need beefing up. Such drama queens!
