Taurus Midterm Eclipses 2022 and 1938!

Dual Horoscopes: 1938 Midterms Taurus Lunar Eclipse Conjunct Uranus (upper right) and 2022 Midterms Taurus Lunar Eclipse Conjunct Uranus in (lower left) set for Washington DC; both eclipses are Total

by Jude Cowell

History Rhymes with Similar Yet Possibly Different Conditions and Outcomes. Midterms 2022 is society's opportunity to deal more effectively with social events such as elections for House and Senate that will determine our country's future direction toward a civilized society or a barbaric one. Once again, America's social safety net is in jeopardy from a greedy wealthy elite class with austerity for the masses and major thievery on their agenda. How will you vote this time around?

As you see, similar conditions existed during our 1938 Midterm Elections with FDR in the White House and H*tler in Germany - as well as for our Midterms 2022 in a couple of days (November 8, 2022). Both elections carry cosmic signatures of Moon-Uranus (emotional tension; mood changes; anti-societal people) conjunct the karmic Nodal Axis - in 1938 Moon-Uranus conjunct South Node ('the tail of the dragon') while in 2022 the pair conjoins North Node, a Jupiterian influence. You'll note the bottom of the chart with Saturn @18AQ48 in 4th house of Endings - in humanitarian Aquarius - for the karmic planet of responsibility, accountability, and legalities looks ready to limit Republican gains in 2022, although naturally, much frustration and rebelliousness will result. Obviously, recounts and worse may occur, just as everyone expects.

Even so, significant for democracy which is "on the ballot" this year, the asteroid of democracy, Ceres, is retrograde ('Rx') in 1938 (large gains in House and Senate by Republicans who were anti-FDR policies and still are) with 1938 Ceres conjunct the separative, disruptive Uranus-SN conjunction (see middle right side of the chart for Uran-SN highlighted in green), while in 2022 the situation is differently poised with Ceres moving Direct @16Vir27 ('17Virgo' = "A Volcano in Eruption" - Vote Blue!). You may also wish to see lower right for 2022's voting Mercury conjunct South Node denoting "ideas behind (fascism; dictatorship) or ahead of their time (progressive policies), and/or support for ideas is hard to find." Old timey fascism or nazism? Or karmic progress?

And so I shall depend on 2022's Sun-Mercury conjunction and the 'common sense' it supplies to make the rational choice for democracy and thereby safeguard the future of America for our children by rejecting the barbaric death cult knocking once again on America's door. So one more time for America I say:

Vote Blue for democracy, Vote Blue to Save America.

Nov 8, 2022: Biden-Trump Progressions

Midterms 2022? Meet Two Progressed Horoscopes

by Jude Cowell

Today my Friday post shows a dual image of President Biden's Secondary Progressed Horoscope (upper right; 'SP') and Trump's ('SP') Horoscope (lower left) with both charts set for natal locations (Scranton PA and Queens NY) on November 8, 2022. Emphasized are the planetary factors that stand out to yours truly but you will undoubtedly discover other significant factors for yourself.

Then, if you read my study notes penned upon the image, differences between the two men will surface for your consideration such as karmic Saturn, planet of authority, responsibility, maturity, soberness, and accountability in a starring role with reformist Uranus, and with Pluto, planet of power, wealth, and stealth. All three planets play major roles when it comes to leadership style and the exercising of power or its abuse. And of course, transformation is part of the Plutonian picture as well - especially in 2022 with America's first-ever Pluto Return/s ongoing.

Planet Saturn in a Leader's Horoscope and Psyche

President Biden's Saturn remains in Mercury-ruled Gemini when progressed suggesting a measure of adaptable stability, while Trump's Saturn, natally in Moon-ruled Cancer, has progressed into Sun-ruled Leo suggesting rigidity and pomposity. In quicksilver Gemini, Saturn suggests conscientiousness, logical thinking, studiousness, and a tendency to become preoccupied with difficult problems (like presidents must do). However, wall-builder Saturn tends toward neurosis when in emotional, self-protective Cancer, but when progressed into proud Leo, we find Trump's egotism, dislike of formalities, and deep need for power, control, recognition, applause, and importance.

Additionally, we know that restrictive Saturn can add fear and/or paranoia to most any equation, as well as a sense of loss when Saturn's demands for upright behavior and maturity are not met. Obviously, an individual's Saturn Return Horoscope provides information concerning such issues.

Two factors stand out in particular in each SP chart

For Mr. Biden, it's his SP Uranus Stationed Direct and unaspected so there's a strong emphasis on the planet, plus the suggestion that he's independent and thus not overly influenced by external forces, energies, or actors. (His aviator shades and fast cars might suggest a cool independent streak.)

For Mr. Trump, it's his SP Ascendant @1Sco27 which has received the current 6 South Solar Eclipse of October 25, 2022 conjunct it with themes of 'forcfully taking control' (B. Brady), which is what he's determined and very desperate to do, no matter the cost.

So beneath the symbolic progressed horoscopes (which provide hints as to how one has evolved during their lives), brief notes concerning both men's Sun-Moon blends (which are temporary until SP Moon enters the next Zodiacal sign) are added via The Harveys; then in closing, potentials contained within their SP midpoint pictures are listed for the sake of comparison via Reinhold Ebertin and Noel Tyl:

President Joe Biden: SP Sun Aquarius-Moon Aries (Air-Fire) = self and society; the brotherhood of man is a reality; sound intellect; frankness; disdain for hypocrisy; talkative; an observer of humanity; pokes fun at absurdities; loves challenges; a social reformer or eccentric ambassador; prefers practical answers that cut through bureaucracies and red tape; can be arrogant, cool, and detached. "Image for Integration: Robin Hood and his merry band of men outwit the evil King John once again."

Donald Trump: SP Sun Virgo-Moon Libra (Earth-Air) = pragmatism; lives in a private world; a gift for words; an eye for detail; organized; consults others but pushes through with own ideas; delights in paradox; lives according to a personal code; yearns for the day when others see things "his way"; fussy insistence on getting things a particular way; can be tactful and approachable; ability to cooperate for a common cause. "Image for Integration: "A monastic husband." (Sun Sign-Moon Sign, Charles and Suzi Harvey #ad).

SP Midpt Pix (11/08/22): any, all, or none may apply

President Biden: stress in the profession (Sun-Neptune = MC); pressure to regroup forces and plan anew; constraint; grave inhibitions (Moon-Pluto = Saturn); desire for pleasant contacts with many people (Jupiter-North Node = Pluto); placing false hopes on associations; dealing with others naively or simplistically (Jup-Nept = North Node).

Donald Trump: desire to rise from difficult circumstances; major separation (Saturn-Pluto = MC); grappling with unusual problems; brooding over one's destiny (Mercury-Saturn = Pluto); having a bad influence upon others; breakdown between people living together (Nept-NN = Pluto); giving stimulating ideas to others (Venus-Uranus = Mercury); chaotic emotional life; easily led by others; a dreamy nature (Venus-Neptune = Moon); arranging associations or unions (Jup-NN = Merc: or an army? jc); contemplating loss; fearing wipe-out; abandonment (Merc-Saturn = Pluto).

#VoteBlueForDemocracy #VoteBlueToSaveAmerica

A Republican Revolution and Violence 2022

When the 104th Congress opened on January 3, 1995, Republican Newt Gingrich took the gavel as Speaker of the House in what can be called the Republican Revolution of 1994. With a major sense of frustration, 40 years of Democratic supremacy had to be vanquished by Republicans chaffing at the bit to be the Big Boss of Washington, just as they chafe now.

An excellent overview of events that led up to the Republican take-over and their "Contract On America" (as President Clinton had called it - so do I), plus, more Neptunian intrigue, are now available via Steve Kornacki's 6-episode podcast, The Revolution (MSNBC). How did the bitterness in Washington begin? With power-craving Republican operative Newt Gingrich using his Pied Piper ability which is shared by Donald Tr*mp via their Sun Gemini-Moon Sagittarius personality blends.

So for readers who speak any amount of astrologese, it may be revealing to compare the party's 1854 horoscope (Sun = Aries Point; the revolutionary duo, Uranus-Pluto conjunct in Taurus) with a chart of Election Night 1994 (November 8; "8:00 pm" with Moon @1AQ15 conjunct bold Altair, the eagle), what I'm labeling the 'Republican Revolution 1994' horoscope for the purposes of this comparison.

Horoscopes: Republican Party 1854 with Republican Revolution 1994 ("8:00 pm" est puts 1854 Neptune at Midheaven, the Goal Point along with star of crisis, Achernar)

Yes, an abundance of study notes are squooshed upon the charts; please enlarge or print the image for better viewing, if needed. Alternately, why not set up the charts for yourself and have it your way?

.....

For a Thom Hartmann video segment on this topic from 2016, see Who Started the Destruction of Public Trust? (a sprinkling of Astrology included).

It seems antiquainted now, but Gingrich's With America" spouted three core principles: Accountability, Responsibility, and Opportunity! So in view of the Republican Party's attempts to dodge the first two "principles," this would be laughable if it weren't so tragic for our democratic Republic under siege worse than ever before by a fas*ist-naz*-sympathizing GOP working in league with a global authoritarian movement - a worldwide criminal network - ours led by dictator wanna-be Donald Tr*mp, the orange menace, or as some have called him, the Mango Mussolini.

BREAKING: John Eastman FILES WEIRDEST MOTION yet in Court of Appeals - Meidas Touch

You'll find a mini-mention of election denier John Eastman in a previous post, Overthrowing US more successful for Rutherford Hayes which points out that the controversial Hayes Inauguration (the election "thrown" to Congress as Tr*mp had hoped for via his coup attempt of January 6, 2021) fell into a 4 South Saros Series which is the same series that brought us the Electoral Vote Count Eclipse (23Sag03) of December 14, 2020 with themes of 'strong emotions over money and relationships' and 'suddenly ending relationships or alliances' (paraphrasing B. Brady).

The Great American Eclipses of 1878, 2017, and 2024. Significantly, the 1878 Eclipse fell into the 6 South Saros Series, the current one that repeated October 25, 2022 @2Scorpio. Themes of 6 South eclipses always cycle up issues of 'forcefully taking power and control' and 'huge group effort' so that now society has another opportunity to deal more directly and effectively with its difficult energies such as choosing democracy over fas*ism and naz*sm for Midterms 2022.

Now here's a bi-wheel image of NATO (inner) with the current horoscope of the October 6 South Eclipse surrounding it due to the fact that the eclipse @2Scorpio hits NATO's Ascendant. Power and control, dear reader. Power and control.

DC Horoscope: 118th Congress Opens Jan 3, 2023

If all goes as usual, the 118th Congress of the United States, after being sworn in, will meet in first session upon Capitol Hill from January 3, 2023 to January 3, 2025. Depending upon results of the 2022 Midterms in November, varying levels of loyalty to their congressional oaths are to be expected.

So below is a bi-wheel of two DC Horoscopes, both set for the first official day of the 118th Congress, January 3, 2023 - one chart for 9:00 am est (as if!), the other for the more civilized noon hour which is the official hour of opening; the 9:00 am chart shows a behind-the-scenes line-up of planets in the 12th house of Large Institutions, a place were backroom deals are made:

Please enlarge or print the image for clearer reading. A few notes are penned on the chart and naturally there are similarities between 9:00 am and 12:00 pm on the same day such as:

By noon, the Gemini Moon (the public) is out-of-bounds ('OOBs') as is activist planet Mars which conjuncts US 1776 Uranus, so dangerous issues remain in play along with deceit about true motives (Neptune-NN = noon ASC: some lawmakers are uncomfortable being in the presence of other lawmakers). You'll notice that neither chart-ruler makes an applying aspect (so their signs and houses are emphasized), and notably, lawmaker Saturn in Aquarius is unaspected in both horoscopes. This suggests congress members with senior status - and/or, who are unconcerned, inconsistent, and/or conscience-free. A lack of organization may be noticed, yet an inordinate amount of focus and concentration will be applied by some although their focus may be one-pointed and/or too narrow.

(Of course, a different opening hour changes chart-rulers.)

As you see, problematic zealot Uranus, planet of chaos, continues to hang around with the North Node of destiny indicating radical reactionary political operatives while financial largesse (Taurus) pours in from unconventional donors and backers with coup d'etat objectives and a leaning toward intolerance. (btw: if you've yet to check out the Rachel Maddow Presents Ultra podcast, delay no longer!).

Meanwhile, communicating Mercury is retrograde so issues cycle up from the 117th Congress and before, while the Capricorn Sun leads a BOWL shape of the planets which indicates a leader or leaders advocating for a cause.

My cause is democracy over the totalitarianism - whether it's cloaked in theocracy, fascism, or nazism. How about you?

#VoteBlueToSaveDemocracy! Because if we don't, our children and grandchildren will be very sorry when it's gone. And we will deserve to be blamed.

How The GOP Lost Its Mind | The Mehdi Hasan Show - MSNBC

Finding a 'Share to Blogger' option with the following, I'm taking a chance curating a Mehdi Hasan segment which will probably be mysteriously disappeared in short order from SO'W. So here's a link to the segment should you need it.

Because I suspect you've noticed that if Herr Trump does manage to run again in 2024, a possible running mate whose name is now being floated is opportunist Marjorie Taylor Greene. And wouldn't that be a bizarre political ticket of banana republic porportions?

American Democracy's Arsenal and the Hercules Powder Plant Explosion

When Difficult Eclipses Like 14 South Repeat

by Jude Cowell

On December 29, 2016, a Capricorn New Moon echoed FDR's famous 'Arsenal of Democracy' Speech which he delivered on December 29, 1940 - same sign, same degree. Obviously, the 2016 New Moon in Saturn-ruled Capricorn, sign of government, law, business, and investment, perfected after the 2016 Election but prior to Inauguration 2017, the start of America's self-styled neo-nazi-in-chief's political regime. That's one of my descriptions of the orange blighter, based on his and his followers' actions but supported by research into the historical decades involving such power-grabbing behavior and brutality (1920 to 1940s).

Not the least of such behavior are Trump's rally and its subsequent 'MAGA' Mob Attack on the US Congress, the so-called "stop the steal" coup attempted and instigated by Hitl*r wanna-be, Herr Tr*mp.

However, it's the significant year 1940 featured in the Rachel Maddow Presents Ultra podcasts which we've discussed recently here. As of this typing, three episodes of Ultra are available with more insights to come (new eps on Mondays). Episode One opens with the tragic and deadly Hercules Powder Plant Explosion of September 12, 1940 which followed one in 1933 and preceded one in 1989. The outer horoscope shown, below, is the Solar Eclipse of influence for the tragic event of sabotage against America's ability to make armaments to fight Nazis in Europe, aka, World War II (Horoscope shows the dynamic T-Square of brutality, Mars-Pluto = Saturn = Herr Adolf's natal Sun).

Now various theories of culpability for the sabotage of 1940 near Roxbury, New Jersey have been advanced (even the IRA!) but to me, Rachel's and her team's investigation seems most logical: Nazis in America, especially in light of how active in the US such sniveling bullies were then, and are now, as they marched and yelled through US streets, lighted tiki-torches held "proudly", plus, violence and threats of violence are on the rise compliments of thuggish far-right (ultra-right) operatives devoted to Tr*mp.

Of course, racism is a primary identifying trait of such regressive barbarians, with threats hurled against members of the Hebrew race, and nowadays, against transgender folk or anyone they consider to be beneath them; examples include liberals and Democrats; see the "Ideology Clash" charts, below; visibly lurking therein are demagogues, zealots, and violent fanatics which are notated on the chart, upper left.

And yet as I type, it's apparent that unless you've been living under a Saturnian rock of denial, you already know these things, don't you?

Be Aware of 14 South Themes (paraphrasing B. Brady):

'Long periods of hard work which bring the promised success of Jupiter once an obsessive idea is finally accepted' (obsessive Mercury-Pluto content from 14 South's initial manifestation as, Mercury-Pluto = Sun-Moon = Mars-Saturn, the 'death axis' duo according to R. Ebertin); significantly, the 0984 14 South Eclipse @10Vir59 rises in the 14 South horoscope of April 7, 1940, a cosmic time link extraordinaire:

So due to the expansive breadth of such disturbing topics and democracy-threatening potentials, this post is merely another in my series of 'forewarned is forearmed' efforts, with more to come, if and as I can. For now, shown above is a bi-wheel of the initial 14 South Solar Eclipse (inner @10Vir59) with its repetition on April 7, 1940, the Saros Series during which the Hercules Powder Explosion (sabotage) occurred.

14 South themes are listed, above, and you may be interested to know that the next 14 South Eclipse will occur on June 1, 2030 @11Gemini (chart not shown); if you suspect that the "obsessive idea" of 14 South is a nazified America, then we're on the same page, dear reader, and the Arsenal of Democracy had better have its Herculean act together pronto.

Alarm Bells Ring: Ultra-Right Threats to Democracy 2022: Vote Blue!

Ultra-Right Saboteurs Spotlighted by Rachel Maddow

Now that Episode 3 of Rachel Maddow's Ultra podcast is available, I recommend it most highly. If only voters who don't know or care about the Nazi threat we now again face in America would listen and take its lessons to heart.

Or perhaps before the November 8th Midterms with its Taurus Lunar Eclipse, Republican leaning voters will run across the new ad premiered by Rep. Eric Swalwell, Lock Her Up which shows just what America would be like under a GOP Nazi-style rule with women arrested for making medical decisions, a fate that Republicans have made very plain. (No word yet on the role of pills such as 'viagra' have to do with anything.) Thing is, the GOP's regressive laws will necessarily include Republican women, and we know that the Republican Party's anti-abortion laws are not about saving life - they're about exercising power and control. It's as if the chastity belt industry is tooling up with giddy expectation, not to mention the prison industry.

And so we now must deal again with the themes of the 6 South Solar Eclipse manifesting in a few days on October 25, 2022 @2Scorpio. And with a disturbing flurry of 'history rhymes' implications, 6 South was the Saros Series that brought the world the Third Reich (January 30, 1933 Berlin, Germany), Herr Adolf's official take-over. The fight against Nazism and Fascism is enjoined again. Pass it around.

20 Aries: Overcoming Crisis With Compassion

Yet none of my comments above even touch upon the fact that a Republican take-over of House or Senate at Midterms 2022 would mean that Social Security, Medicare, and Medicaid are set to be reduced and ultimately deleted from the fabric of our society. If accomplished, Republicans will realize their long-term vision to toss recipients onto the streets of America and at the mercy of the generosity of their family members. If such support there be. Basically, the total breakdown of American society is their goal - and that's when brutal dictatorships are easiest to implement.

Meanwhile, in closing here's a quirky little comparison of two horoscopes: lower left is Trump's 'Prez Bid' New Moon of June 16, 2015 along with the first of three Uranus Returns to the Third Reich Horoscope (upper right) which perfected on June 17, 2015 - the next day. But it must be merely a crazy coincidence, right?

Mars to Trump's Prez Bid New Moon

by Jude Cowell

Dear Reader: In view of current events, and with planet Mars in Gemini at perigee (close to Earth) until March 2023, I thought you and I should check out warrior planet Mars in relation to its position in the Trump Prez Bid Horoscope of June 16, 2015 since Mars conjoined the 2015 New Moon on the morning of Trump's downward escalator ride in Trump Tower and his disturbing announcement replete with bigoted insults which set the tone for what became his regime. As you know, Trump was born with Mars rising along with royal Regulus, a star that cautions against taking revenge, plus, his 10th house trio of Uranus-NN-Sun are nearby the Prez Bid New Moon of 2015. Since that morning, these cosmic conditions have worried me on behalf of my country. The following post is a result:

Search for significant events occurring in June 2022 and you'll find a variety from monkeypox outbreaks to vaccines, to the G-7 Summit held in Schloss Elmau, Germany (as in 2015) from June 26 to June 28, 2022 when support was pledged for Ukraine. Astrologically, on June 28, 2022, transit Neptune, slow-mover that it is, stationed retrograde @25Pis26:36, pausing upon the Mercury-Pluto midpoint in Trump's 'Prez Bid' New Moon Horoscope of June 16, 2015 (shown, below).

Therefore, because the orange blighter won't hush up about his loss of the 2020 Election and acts as if he'll run in 2024 (for fund-raising purposes), I'm asking you, dear reader, to consider the rounded-up Sabian Symbol (26Pisces) of lumbering Neptune's station back on June 28th: "A New Moon That Divides Its Influences." Is that similar to the at-best divided loyalty of a US president who thinks more of foreign autocrats than he does the leaders and officials of his own country? He makes it easy to think so.

26Pisces: negative expression: "a completely disruptive vacillation" (M.E. Jones). Well, chaos-creator Trump is nothing if not disruptive. In fact, his vanity basks in it!

So here are the potentials of the midpoint picture formed by transit Neptune June 28, 2022 in relation to Trump's initial step into presidential politics (his golden escalator ride and announcement) with its Mercury-Pluto flavors of cruel words and possibilities of: 'intelligence activities; political talk that offers abrupt changes to some functions; orbital weapons or toxic gases; secrets concerning business or transportation; communications between intelligence gathering agencies; self-destructive impulses in business; road breakdowns (M. Munkasey); R. Ebertin adds: 'a demagogue or plagiarist; the art of persuasion; fraudulent misrepresentation in speaking or writing; a convincing speaker; slyness, cunning, craftiness; hastiness; impatience; irritability; overtaxing one's strength'. Then Noel Tyl chimes in with a rousing, "Overdoing issues drains energy and wears out one's welcome." Sounds like a Trump rally a la 2022 to me. And it's become next to impossible to even read a post about him, hasn't it? Same goes for typing about him!

Prez Bid New Moon June 16, 2015 @25Gem07 = Mars

Meanwhile, in his book The 360 Degrees of the Zodiac (#ad), Adriano Carelli doesn't round-up degrees so it's 25Gemini ("A Man Holding An Open Book") to which he adds a very interesting example, "Here is the degree of the point of equidistance" (Sun-Moon) "of the coup-d'etat that overthrew the Fascist regime on July 25, 1943." How fabulous! I want a bunch of that overthrow energy for America circa 2022+! And for all other nations that demand freedom and independence from murderous dictators!

Anyway, above is a bi-wheel of demagogue Trump's prez bid New Moon (inner) and the October 30, 2022 Mars Station @25Gem36 (outer) with Mars conjunct not only Trump's prez bid New Moon ("that divides its influences") in chatty, duplicitous Gemini (@26Gemini: "A Man Trimming Palms" - he did! $50 per audience member!), but the October 30th Halloween-esque Mars station also hits the New Moon's Mars (24Gem35). Warrior planet Mars is perigee right now (close to Earth, heating things up) so it's siognificant that transit Mars returns to his 2015 degree three times (listed center of the bi-wheel: Oct 18, 2022, NOVEMBER 11, 2022, and Mar 13, 2023). Obviously, November 11th is a few days beyond Midterms 2022 but we know election results will extend for who-knows-how-long, and Trump's big mouth is certain to be involved.

Then if we take this significant Gemini New Moon (also conjunct the Discovery Degree of erratic Uranus 1781 - Trump's guiding planet of chaos) as if it's a solar eclipse (power which some lunations can muster) with aggressive Mars conjunct it, we have conditions of headstrong people with violent tendencies who can be prodded into misguided situations intended to settle issues despite any negative karmic indications - and rarely do they undertand the full significance or the ultimate consequences of their actions against society. The ones who do understand, know what they're doing - and they don't care.

In addition, we shouldn't forget a major influence that colored the entire year: the Spring Equinox Solar Eclipse that brought Trump's Prez Bid New Moon which fell into the 17 South Saros Series because 17 South, working through a POTUS-pretending Trump, sure eclipsed America, plus, 17S themes account for at least some of why one third of American voters could be so easily bamboozled by 'agent orange for president' and line up behind his misbegotten regime. For it was good news and success, even for bad actors.

And yes, we've discussed such topics before. Example: Year 2015: Our Trump Troubles Begin.

So as Midterms 2022 arrive in a few days with a Taurus Lunar Eclipse conjunct Uranus in tow, my hope is that these astro-notes on the 2015 Prez Bid New Moon might inspire a voter or two with Blue Tsunami leanings because it will take a landslide for democracy to vanquish the orange blighter and his cheating, fascist-leaning comrades.

So in closing, I'll say this: for years I've heard that what frightens politicians the most is the large population in the United States - so if that's true, we have the perfect tool that can cast out the anti-government types, the grifters, charletans, wackos, and bigots who work to undermine the US Constitution, often on behalf of foreign governments, while believing they can reverse time!

So let's Vote Blue to Save America in massive numbers! She is, after all, worth the effort.

Inauguration 1789, President Biden, and Eclipses

Astro-Thoughts on the US Presidency: 1789 and Beyond

by Jude Cowell

America's first official Oath of Office for the presidency occurred on April 30, 1789 in New York City. As you know, the 1st Oath was taken by a popular fellow, General George Washington, and his Oath-taking on that day creates our nation's archetypal model for the US Presidency. Here you see the 1st Oath Horoscope set for 2:00 pm LMT (historical record) with Virgo rising, Gemini at Midheaven, both ruled by Mercury, planet of oaths and those who take them - here in pioneering Aries; several of President Joe Biden's natal placements are penned around the chart, such as 1789 North Node @28Scorpio pointing directly toward Biden's natal Venus-Sun:

Sun @10Tau46 (9th house), the leader, has been under the influence of the 6 North Solar Eclipse since April 2022 (@10Tau28) yet 6 North themes are in process of waning as the 6 South Eclipse @2Scorpio (October 25, 2022) takes over and a forceful power grab for control intensifies. (6 North themes are penned on the chart and highlighted in red.)

Meanwhile, 1789 Inauguration's Prenatal Solar Eclipse (@6Sag15) fell into the 7 North Saros Series with themes of 'deep passion long-hidden; lust' (B. Brady) to which I've been compelled to add "blood lust" due to 7 North's repetition in April 2023 and because of the current crop of saboteurs and faithless traitors desperate to coup the US government and enforce authoritarianism and Utopian zealotry upon the American people, thus deleting George Washington's democratic Republic from the world stage of leadership. Or so they wish.

(By 'Utopian zealotry', I refer to their determination to rid America of the rule of law so that a free-for-all cowboy-style 'Old West' manner of living (dying) is established, brutal and cruel, with everyone "locked and loaded" for a shoot out.) Have you ever noticed that the NRA Horoscope of 1871 contains a Mars-Saturn Conjunction in Capricorn, the 'death axis' pair of planets? So many profits to be made by promoting death!

As for eclipses and the US presidency, we know that all eclipses act as Uranian 'wild cards of the Universe' and 'cosmic blinks' which suggests the unpredictability of their effects. Disruption we know, change of course may be forthcoming, perhaps even Earth shifts or weather events, yet sometimes the themes of a particular series don't have as strong an effect upon circumstances as the fact that an eclipse manifests upon a certain planet, star, or point in a horoscope. Naturally, total eclipses are the strongest actors and in similar fashion to planet Uranus, eclipses may act early, on time, late, or never with a multitude of factors mitigating and/or supporting their energies and power.

That said, I suspect that most SO'W readers would agree that 6 North themes (ex: 'relationship to authority figures') have affected the US presidency, a role which, at this time, happens to be inhabited by Joseph R. Biden. And I'll simply say that his maturity and experience have been appreciated after our country's previous roller coaster ride of misrule and criminality led by the orange scofflaw.

So hopefully, this post and horoscope are useful to you, dear reader, and that you will join me in my plan to Vote Blue in November 2022 and 2024 so that our democratic Republic can weather the current political and ideological storms brought by fascist/nazi types of violent criminals. Because the world has tried that barbaric form of government during the 1920s to 1940s decades and found it sorely lacking. What say we not try it again.
