RFK Jr, RFK Sr, and Two Eclipses

by Jude Cowell, partisan for democracy

There will be no voters in the 2024 Election who will know how it feels to have a father assassinated in cold blood. Except for RFK Jr., a past drug addict with unusual opinions, some on the quirky side.

The emotional and psychological damage from losing his father when he was 14 years old is difficult if not impossible to assess by a lone blogger such as myself with no psychology degree. However, what I can do is publish two pertinent horoscopes concerning these matters, my study notes included, and which are shown in bi-wheel form below.

But first, a bit of news, then some background:

'Leaving Nothing to Chance': Biden and allies seek to hobble RFK Jr, reports Elena Schneider over at Politico.

A Father Who Was Suddenly Lost

The tragic assassination of presidential candidate Robert F. Kennedy (aka, RFK) on June 5, 1968, and his death the next day, occurred under the auspices of a 6 North Solar Eclipse @8Aries (unmarked on the chart--in 2nd house of money, with the aggressive energies of Mars). 6 North themes: "relationship to father or authority figures; the need to take responsibility and control; commitments occur due to another person's illness or unreliability" (paraphrasing B. Brady; my Italics). We last experienced a 6 North Eclipse on April 30, 2022 @10Taurus as the 2022 Midterm campaigns were gearing up.

Bi-wheel: RFK Assassination June 5, 1968 (inner) surrounded by RFK Jr's natal chart born January 17, 1954, with two of the primary contacts circled:

1968 Pluto to his natal Jupiter (death/assassination of a loving father) and 1968 Saturn and North Node conjunct his son's natal Midheaven ('MC') indicating potentials for: "separation from family members, mourning and bereavement; depression; and/or standing alone in life" (R. Ebertin). Also notated is April's 8 North Eclipse @19Ari24 conjunct wounded healer Chiron @19:24 - and both conjunct RFK Jr's natal Midheaven. So is Bobby's 2024 candidacy an attempt to fulfill his father's cruelly diverted dream of entering the Oval Office? If so, it wouldn't be surprising.

Yes, prominent campaign-wise, is the recent manifestation of the 8 North Great American Eclipse for RFK Jr because it has landed directly upon his natal Midheaven ('MC') of Goals and Aspirations and spotlights at this time his strong drive for power. Follow the link to view a dual image of the 8 North Eclipse and RFK Jr's natal horoscope.

However, when under the influence of a Mars-ruled Aries Eclipse, one can behave in an overly headstrong manner, too aggressive in competition. This tracks well with the fellow that many say RFK Jr's candidacy is intended to elect by default - Defendant J. Trump, as he is currently known. Unless, that is, Trump has to step aside and Bobby Jr. steps in. Unlikely, yes, but who really knows? One thing we can know: as RFK Jr is carrying water for Trump, he's also carrying water for the foreign meddlers who use DJT as an asset.

And yet as we've previously discussed, RFK Jr is the only 2024 candidate having a beneficial Jupiter Return in Election Year 2024!

Meanwhile, for the daring reader, here's a view of the natal horoscope of assassin Sirhan Sirhan, born with a Minor Grand Trine between Uranus-Neptune and assassin Pluto at apex. You'll remember that this is the same planetary trio that formed in 2017 when transit Pluto @18Capricorn hit the 1993 Uranus-Neptune Conjunction/s and completed a revealing midpoint picture of:

"The big picture commands a certain course of action which must be followed; very little option to do otherwise" (Noel Tyl).

And this, my friends, partially describes the overbearing script that global authoritarians are continuing to follow as they join forces to form a vast criminal syndicate (Neptune-Pluto) and play their grand chess game over our heads with their success at any cost mindset - as long as all the losses are ours, not theirs.

Why The Right is Wrong: Raid on Michael Cohen Isn't Corruption, It's Just -- clip

As you know, the Trump Election Interference Trial began with jury slection in Judge Marchan's Manhattan courtroom on Monday April 15th. In fact, his "hush money" payments to Stormy Daniels are no longer hush-hush and, as expected, Donald is going through some things.

Then back in 2018, the FBI raided Michael Cohen on April 9th, and a SO'W post appeared concerning Cohen, Trump, Pecker, and The National Enquirer.

Upcoming testimonies in Trump's "hush money" trial should be quite engaging, if not riveting. Don't you agree?

Old Trump Discovers He's Not a King!

No Thumb on the Scale But Ketchup On the Wall

by Jude Cowell

In the Manhattan courtroom of Judge Juan Marchan this week, Mr. Trump is finding it quite impossible to put his thumb on the Scales of Justice as he has always managed to do. Glowering, frowning, staring pointedly, and napping certainly haven't worked for his nibs. No jury member was seated yesterday but about 50 of them were excused.

A don't-miss report is Rachel Maddow Highlights April 15, 2024 with her commentary including Michael Cohen, set to testify in the Trump Election Interference Trial that began yesterday in Manhattan, Trump's interference in the Department of Justice to delete information on his involvement for which he's now on trial (yet Michael Cohen spent three years in prison for his part bribing Stormy Daniels), the "catch and kill" scheme with The National Enquirer's David Pecker (paramour Karen McDougal may also testify), and other topics.

You'll remember that back in the day the FBI raided Michael Cohen.

Michael Cohen Born in the 1960s' Uranus-Pluto Era

Now with my printer-scanner out of working order since yesterday, I can't post the noon natal chart of Michael Cohen but I can mention the fact that the Eclipse Saros Series into which Michael was born on August 25, 1966 is the difficult 4 North of May 20, 1966 @29Taurus, a critical degree, with themes of "restriction, inhibition, restraint, separation, illusions; events block the individual and he's prone to misjudge strength or the situation" (paraphrasing B. Brady).

The last 4 North Eclipse occurred as the Summer Solstice June 21, 2020 @00Cancer (00:21), a Cardinal World Point of manifestation and global events. Based on its Solar and Lunar Eclipses, 1966 was a Taurus-Scorpio sort of year with Uranus-Pluto-in-Virgo undertones.

A current transit to Michael Cohen's natal planets include a three-fer visit from transit Neptune to his natal Saturn Rx @28Pis05 timing an extended period of clouds and confusion for him, but also a time to find new ways to approach his own sense of authority. However, the best way for anyway to handle this transit is to depend on spiritual assets, and the presence of priestly Chiron @24Pis55 in his natal chart, where transit Neptune has already tarried, underscores such a need - spiritualism over materialism. Michael testifying for the prosecution against Snoozy Don is part of this change.

Then with a natal Neptune-South-Node conjunction @19Scopio, Michael has experienced a life of intrigue and unfortunate circumstances, and now has an opportunity to act as a channel for the Collective to work out spiritual purposes under very difficult conditions. It seems obvious to me, if not to dear readers like you, that his Collective task involves outing the criminal conduct of his former employer, the highly materialistic Donald Trump.

Horoscopes: Israel and Iran

April 2024: Israel and Iran Tension and Conflict

by Jude Cowell, partisan for democracy and the common good

Here on SO'W in January 2024, we considered the Iran Islamic Republic Horoscope (April 1, 1979; Campion #159) with January 2024 transits surrounding it. Considering the current tension between Iran and Israel, and the potential for starting a world war that no one in their right minds wants, here's the bi-wheel again with Israel's Horoscope added, below:

Then on May 17, 2021, we looked at a bi-wheel of Israel (May 14, 1948) set, or re-set, for Jerusalem surrounded by the May 26, 2021 Lunar Eclipse @5Sag26 which landed upon Israel's 1948 Nemesis (Rx @5Sag24), the asteroid/archetype of divine retribution and/or the unbeatable foe; you'll notice other contacts as well:

A New Week Begins at Stars Over Washington

Now I have no new horoscopes to show you today due to my HP printer-scanner crashing this morning. Whether troubleshooting efforts can get it running again, it's too soon to tell. As a last resort I may turn to cell phone photos of horoscopes shared to Instagram which will hardly suffice for SO'W posts. This will be annoying to you and to me, plus, some charts may be hand-drawn.

Meanwhile, today is April 15 and jury selection for the first Trump Trial NYC began this morning which could take up to 2 to 3 weeks to complete before opening arguments and testimonies begin, so I'll do as best I can here muddling through somehow without a printer-scanner; therefore, your kind patience will be gratefully appreciated! jc

In closing, here's my previous post about today's Election Interference (2016) Trump Trial showing the 9:30 an edt horoscope with 25 Gemini rising.

Stormy Legalities: The 1st Trump Trial

by Jude Cowell, partisan for the common good

On Monday April 15, 2024, the Election Interference Trial of former NY playboy Trump, also known as his "Hush Money" Trial involving pay-offs to adult film star Stormy Daniels, is scheduled to open with jury selection. Fatefully, Trump's "prez bid New Moon" of June 16, 2015 rises at 9:30 am edt Manhattan, NY on that very day along with Trump's 10th house trio of Sun-North-Node-Uranus - all in duplicitous Gemini.

Now as you know, the pay-offs to Stormy through attorney Michael Cohen occurred in October 2016 just prior to Election 2016 in November and would have been politically risky for 2016 candidate Trump if publicly known especially since the Washington Post on October 7, 2016, published an article and the video of Trump's lewd, crude, boastful Access Hollywood remarks.

Monday April 15, 2024: Much More Than Tax Day

Visible at 9:30 am edt are three difficult planets in 10th house and if we read them as a midpoint picture (Saturn-Neptune = Mars) we might suspect that Mars rising Trump (born with the Saturn-Neptune midpoint of illness rising) will be feeling quite listless and will be preoccupied - probably with his sense of martyrdom and unfairness (his Jupiter in Libra) on display. To this picture Michael Munkasey adds, "defending shabby practices." Well, yes.

An unmarked Horoscope of the "Hush Money" Trial:

And below is a tri-wheel of horoscopes with Trump natal (inner), Stormy Daniels natal (center), and the 9:30 am edt "Hush Money" Trial Horoscope of April 15, 2024 (outer) which is also shown, above:

Incidentally, Election 2016 Sun @17Scorpio as Trump's victory was announced conjoined Venus' position in sexy Scorpio as the tape and article were published. This cast a bright spotlight upon lady Venus in Scorpio, with the placement's strong power of attraction and tendency toward jealousy. So perhaps hiding his rendezvous with Stormy (and relationship with Karen!) was a part of his clumsy pay-off plan.

And as we know, the Sun-Venus duo can be romantic but also relates to birth, a symbol of wife Melania at home with newborn Barron while her hubby was out romping with an adult film star named Stormy. Serial adulterer he, a cad and a bounder.

Now besides Stormy and Michael Cohen (who did prison time for his part in the pay-off/cover-up scheme), it's reported that Trump's National Enquirer pal David Pecker may also testify in the Trump "Hush Money" Trial next week (about their "catch-and-kill" scheme), or however long the proceedings screech on, as may Trump's former WH associate Hope Hicks.

So I hope you'll stay tuned to SO'W for more details as seen through a common good astrological lens by yours truly!

Republican Party's Neptune in April 2024

The GOP's Neptune in Pisces: Mars-Saturn Says Hello!

by Jude Cowell, partisan for democracy

Image: Neptune Ascends; pencil on paper, Jude Cowell Art

Today at 4:36 pm ET, transit Mars and transit Saturn conjunct @14Pis40. Below you see a bi-wheel of the Republican Party's March 20, 1854 Horoscope showing Neptune @14Pis01 in 6th house.

Penned on the chart, below, are notes describing the potentials of the midpoint picture formed by the trio of Mars-Saturn and Neptune. Quite a clash! Because the Mars-Saturn duo is destructive, harmful energy with stop-and-go tendencies, while gaseous Neptune is all soft and gooey. Plus, the point of Mars-Saturn is known as the death axis (R. Ebertin), and Neptune is a known associate in cases of death, often through poison, toxins, fumes, or water such as oceans.

Now as you see, a few other astro-notes are included on the chart, however, this post is limited to today's planetary meet-up with the GOP's Neptune, planet of deception, secrecy, gaslighting, lies, fraud, subversion, erosion, impossible dreams, mass media, and the masses currently floating through the shady sign of Pisces. Then notably, Neptune when in Pisces inspires creativity yet often gives rise to pathological inclinations, plus, fear, anxiety, and general paranoia:

Yes, this is a temporary influence but its effects may be expected to extend until the next Mars-Saturn Conjunction in April 2026, by my best guess. Yet its energies may be activated by transits and progressions if one has the time and enough curiosity to keep an eye on it using the Conjunction Horoscope.

Is History on Russia's Side?

From Khrushchev's Lips to Trump's Wide Girth

by Jude Cowell, partisan for the common good

When speaking about capitalist states in a speech at the Polish embassy in Moscow on November 18, 1956, Russian de facto leader Nikita Khrushchev famously said, "Whether you like it or not, history is on our side. We will bury you." Since then, the correct translation of his words has been in doubt in various quarters, as noted on the phrase's Wikpedia page.

Later, on August 24, 1963 in a speech he delivered in Yugoslavia, Khrushchev confided, "I once said, 'We will bury you', and I got into trouble with it. Of course we will not bury you with a shovel. Your own working class will bury you." This refers to the Marxist saying, The proletariat is the undertaker of capitalism (a quote from The Communist Manifesto).

Q: Are the January 6, 2021 insurrectionists being described here? We know their sedition campaign to collapse The Establishment, what they call the deep (Neptune) state (Saturn) is ongoing with more to come, so what do you think?

Now I'm pretty certain that if you're reading Stars Over Washington at this moment you know that the Saturn-Neptune duo can represent multiple concepts such as Socialism, Communism, Capitalism, Marxism, and other -isms in political realms along with social safety net programs, ill and poor people, suffering, renunciation, and ascetism. I would add, a strugggle between idealism and materialism, secret government, and the pair's midpoint as the illness axis. (Notably, Trump was born with Saturn-Neptune = Ascendant: oppressive family circumstances.)

To Saturn-Neptune's Probable Manifestations, Reinhold Ebertin adds,

"+ Methodical execution of plans, slow attainment of success through intense activity and great painstaking effort.

- Painful or tormenting emotional inhibitions, undermining circumstances leading to a state of illness, neuroses or diseases with causes difficult to ascertain." (The Combination of Stellar Influences, Ebertin #ad)

And so for your consideration, here's a bi-wheel of America July 4, 1776 5:09 m LMT Philadelphia (inner) surrounded by the next Great Conjunction of Saturn and Neptune on February 20, 2026 conjunct the Aries Point/IC with potentials for illness, wrong thinking, hysteria, and perhaps social safety net program issues which relate, of course, to the old grump about America as a socialist nation taking care of her needy citizens:

Now it's true that not all astrologers use a late afternoon July 4, 1776 Horoscope for America (which at the least symbolizes the date of the Declaration of Independence though not its first vote), but I've found the chart useful through the years with its Cardinal World Points of Global Events conjunct the MC-IC Angles of Why? and How?. So the chart I use in the bi-wheel, above, is set for Philadelphia at 5:09 pm LMT which places the highly significant Aries Point on the Foundation Point (IC).

Penned on the chart is the IC's Sabian Symbol: "A Woman Has Arisen From the Ocean, a Seal Is Embracing Her." Naturally, e pluribus unum and America's Great Seal are suggested - at the Founding of our nation.

Plus, the inner horoscope also shows America's 1776 Saturn and Neptune straddling the Goal, Aspiration, Public Status Point ('MC'; @00Lib47) in the 9th and 10th houses, so the 2026 Conjunction symbolically opposes 1776 Saturn and Neptune, something of a Full Moon phase of culmination, full awareness, and/or fulfillment, if we wish to consider it as such.

And yes, astrologically it's all on the messy side, inexact to be exact, but as "they" always say, the proof will be in the pudding - once or before the next Great Conjunction of Saturn-Neptune rolls around.

For more financial and political details, here's an informative video, Marxism vs Communism, a Thom Hartmann interview with economist Richard Wolff from May 2019.

A 2024 Candidate Has a Jupiter Return in 2024!

Which Candidate Has a Jupiter Return in 2024?

by Jude Cowell, partisan for the common good

First, the elephant in the room. At the tragic Assassination of Robert F. Kennedy, the leading Democratic presidential candidate in 1968, his son RFK Jr was only 14 years old. The negative effects of such a horror are incalculable upon a young son, a son now running for US president in 2024. We might think that such a potential includes a large measure of courage, however, if it weren't for the fact that as a third party candidate in November 2024, RFK Jr may act as a "spoiler" who will siphon votes from President Biden and toss victory to fasc*st Trump, aka, 'agent orange'.

Jupiter in Gemini: the desire for many connections; a love of change; a carefree attitude; superficiality (R. Ebertin).

Now Jupiter the politician, banker, priest, and/or corportatist isn't the only factor when it comes to winning elections but, out of Biden and Trump, it may be a significant factor in the 'good fortune' department that Robert Kennedy Jr is the only candidate with a measure of Jupiterian support in 2024 - into 2025. And since his natal Jupiter links to his natal and Return 9th house via Sagittarius and Pisces cusps, we could be talking foreign money rolling in.

The point is, on a cosmic and political level the years 2024 into 2025 will bring RFK Jr a three-fer Jupiter Return (once his currently operative April 30, 2013 Jupiter Return wanes). Above is a dual image of his natal horoscope (lower left; January 17, 1954) along with the first of his three-fer Jupiter Returns on August 18, 2024 (upper right), with Jupiter's cycle of approximately 12 years' duration.

The cyclical repetition of a three-fer Return suggests an extended period of learning whatever lessons his natal Jupiter, leading a Locomotive shape of ruthless determination toward success, should teach him. Naturally, one assumes that finances are part of the picture. Or perhaps that's financiers (with an ulterior motive of aiding Trump). However this may be, Saturn squares his natal Jupiter in August as does Venus (see the T-Square listed, below) so delays and blockages are indicated - and may relate in some way to his father.

Now a variety of astro-notes messily penned on and around the charts are only a partial reading, and mostly relate to his natal Jupiter. The dates of his second and third Returns are listed and highlighted in green. And as you see, today's 8 North Solar Eclipse of 'dreams and visions' manifested precisely upon his natal Midheaven (!) which probably provides a lift to his professional objectives, or at least to his druthers.

Planetary Returns Repeat Natal Planets' Aspects

Notably, each of his Jupiter Returns through the years have repeated the only natal aspect to his natal Jupiter - an inconjunct from natal Mars in Scorpio. This aspect reveals Mr. Kennedy to be a gambler or risk-taker with a need to impress people. The inconjunct may attract fairweather friends, and suggests that obstacles to success may be based on unusual perspectives, a lack of realism, and/or a tendency to misjudge people or situations through overrating or underrating others; this may cause him to belittle those who deserve his respect (A. Epstein). Yet we shall see if maturity has improved his perspectives as the campaign trundles on.

Then as you see listed on the August 18, 2024 Return chart, transit Venus and Saturn oppose one another and form a dynamic T-Square pattern with his natal Jupiter at apex. This planetary trio suggests tricky legalisms and illegitimate relationships (R. Ebertin).

There are more cosmic factors of note, of course, but let's close this post for now. If Mr. Kennedy stays in the 2024 race perhaps another assessment will be appropriate so let's see how the 2024 campaign goes, then decide.

An Overview of the April 8, 2024 Eclipse

A Total and Visible Eclipse During Election Year 2024

by Jude Cowell

The Presidential Election of our first official president, George Washington, was held from December 15, 1788 to January 7, 1789, and results have long been known.

As for our Election 2024, on Tuesday April 8, 2024, a Total Solar Eclipse in the 8 North Series repeats as The Great American Eclipse, the third of three (also in 1878 and 2017) visible across the US.

So because next week's April 8th Eclipse is in partile conjunction with wounded healer Chiron, both @19Ari24, and because America's founding Chiron of 1776 is @20Ari08, I looked back at the 1700s time frame for the manifestation of an 8 North Eclipse during that era and found that an 8 North Eclipse perfected on May 16, 1789 @25Sco16:15 - conjunct the initial 8 North 1501 Eclipse's Pluto, apex planet of the YOD pattern as noted, above, and representing power and transformation. Astro-notes are penned on the chart shown, below.

Now I haven't checked out all the 8 North Eclipses in between, but the Eclipse-Pluto contact does qualify as a cosmic time link between 1501 and 1789, and at its worst, can denote manipulation, criminal and/or violent offenses, with war being an obvious potential, then and now. Yet unlike individuals in 1501, one major difference in 1789 is that George Washington refused to accept the title of "king" and was inaugurated, not crowned. Such is the example our government has followed yet nowadays, malicious malcontents threaten violence and another "civil war" in order to force their wills upon the rest of us.

Because with current events and individuals of our day - there's one candidate who really really wants to be crowned "king of America" so he can fulfill Herr Adolf's "vision," avoid a prison sentence, and settle old scores. Curiously, the 8 North Horoscope of 1789 in NYC at 10:18:02 pm LMT, shows a rising asteroid, Tisiphone, with retaliation her primary objective.

Meanwhile, take a look at the initial 8 North Eclipse:

Above is the DC Horoscope of the initial 8 North Eclipse, with the Gemini lens through which all subsequent 8 Norths may be viewed in order to gain a deeper or broader picture of what was a violent era in human history (Saturn-Uranus square; Mars-Pluto trine) and how its energies may pass down to our era. As you see, the Eclipse perfected on May 16, 1501 @4Gem51:24 with Eclipse Pluto Rx @26Sco10 at apex of a YOD pattern with a Mercury-Jupiter sextile at its base. Somehow, communications and logical problem-solving were involved with this Gemini Eclipse. Check the Events of 1501 link, below, for clues.

Now besides the YOD's turning point/crisis/karmic opportunity implications, the planetary trio of 1501 forms a midpoint picture with potentials for: suggestive oration; rebuffed theories; elimination of discussions on philosophical or religious books; the big proposal; the quick advance (Ebertin; Munkasey; Tyl). So with history's tendency to rhyme if not repeat, the Events of 1501 are instructive and include several kingly events, treaties, battles, the Ottoman-Venetian War (1499--1503) - the arrest of Christopher Columbus, and more.

You may also wish to see the DC Horoscope of America's Chiron Return of April 20, 2024, the day of the Great Jupiter-Uranus Conjunction @21Tau50, the beginning of another of their 14-year cycles.

Additionally, Eclipses may also link years and events by degree in totally different Saros Series, creating a sensitive degree. One example is the 8 North of April 8, 2024 in Aries which conjuncts by degree a certain other Eclipse in Aries - from 1986. Check it out!

Wedding Day Astrology: Adolf Weds Eva

Astro-Notes: The Underground Wedding of Eva Braun

by Jude Cowell

Choosing to join him in his Berlin bunker as the Battle of Berlin raged overhead, Eva Braun's adoration of Herr Adolf resulted in some sort of "reward" for her loyalty through their marriage. Revealed in documents discovered in the bunker after their deaths, their underground wedding took place at 1:00 am CEDT April 29, 1945 with a Cardinal World Point of recognition rising as you see in the two Adolf Weds Eva Wedding Day Astrology Horoscope/s: version one contains my scribbles, version two is unmarked and shows the wedding planets' aspect grid:

As we see, the pair's Sun-Moon blend is informative, an Earth-Water combination of conscious and unconscious energies. This is the blend of The Showman: egotistical, shrewd, subjective, strategic, magnetic, and with a difficult temper and strong appetite, Sun Taurus-Moon Scorpio has fixed prejudices, a desire for power, and an obsessive nature.

But considering that 33-year-old Eva Braun joined Herr Adolf underground and chose to die with him, it is perhaps two of the blend's Images for Integration (-The Harveys) that speak loudest about circumstances that early morning, and the dreary fate of Eva Braun whose natal Moon @26Vir39 had Pan and testy Mars opposing it which suggests emotional friction and her difficulty handling the situation:

Persephone and Pluto...The Phantom of the Opera." See what I mean?

Now I shall leave you, dear reader, to your own assessments of their relationship, their belated, and I think depressive, marriage.

Year 1934 Eclipses Repeat in 2024

by Jude Cowell, partisan for the common good

For clues about how past events may rhyme once again in our day, the Eclipses of 1934 repeat in 2024 with similar implications, influences, and potential events. These are Solar Eclipses in the 8 North and 8 South Saros Series. Below is a list of all Eclipses in 1934 and 2024 with Solar Eclipse themes included; note that the 8 North Eclipse of 1934 is the Eclipse that influenced Herr Adolf's horrific blood purge (see below), while the 8 South Eclipse of 2024 will influence the US General Election of November 5, 2024:

Apparently, mass murder in order to cement his power was Herr Adolf's "good idea," "new-found inspiration," and "vivid dream" that he picked up from the Total 8 North Eclipse themes of February 14, 1934 @24AQ38:41. This makes a measure of sense if we consider that the bizarre fellow was psychotic, bigoted, and wanted to rule the world.

Then with transit Uranus conjunct his natal Sun in 1934, Herr Adolf forever changed the course of Germany by committing a series of extrajudicial executions known as The Night of the Long Knives (June 30--July 2, 1934; aka, the blood purge) which spotlights the year 1934. Significantly, the Solar Eclipses of that year are repeating in 2024.

So yes, this is another in my series of Forewarned Is Forearmed SO'W posts. And you'll remember Trump's recent remarks about a "bloodbath," "poisoning the blood," plus, his Inaugural Address of 2017 in which he conjured an image of what he called, "American carnage". These, plus the deaths and injuries during his J6 attack on Congress, are unsavory topics, yes, but Herr T and his comrades-in-arms have returned barbarism to the front burner of our society with destruction, retaliation, and "retribution" firmly on their dystopian agenda, as revealed by the Project 2025 purging plan. The threat is real, and how hapless would you and I be not to pass this on?

For details concerning Herr Adolf's 3-day blood purge that opened the door wide to future N*zi horrors, there's a free documentary about the purge that boosted Hitler's Rise to Power Part One of Two. The Austrian megalomaniac had already finagled the chancellorship but the purge rid him of some of his oldest companions and advanced his N*zi dictatorship. Civil liberties, freedom of the press, and other restrictions had already been forced upon the good if deluded people of Germany due to Herr Adolf's blood lust, craving for power, and desire to settle old scores (a model for Herr Donald: the ravenous spirit walks the Earth again).

So this post is meant to answer the question: where are we in 2024 when it comes to cosmic time links that reflect the N*zi era? As you see listed, above, we're 90 years on and two solar/two lunar eclipses repeating, that's where.

And besides this, the blood lust 7 North Eclipse of February 1933 has already repeated in April 2023 as Herr Adolf's "birthday eclipse."

Now in closing: you know that sometimes New Moons affect earthly events in similar Uranian fashion as a Solar Eclipse, and disturbingly I must ascribe such influence to the predictive New Moon Prior to Election 2024, primarily because the November 1, 2024 New Moon conjuncts the Inauguration 2017 Scorpio Moon which is basically a Lunar Return to Inauguration 2017. Personally, I do not care for this, dear reader, but there it is.

Total Eclipse 2024 w/ Total Eclipse 2044: Why?

An Ongoing Struggle for Control

by Jude Cowell, partisan for democracy

Details regarding the 8 North Total Eclipse coming up on April 8, 2024 @19Ari24 are available at USA Today along with information concerning the next Total Solar Eclipse visible across Greenland, Canada, and the US occurring on August 22, 2044 @00Vir34:11 in the 10 South Saros Series. This will stir up themes from the August 21, 2017 Eclipse ("unexpected events; fatigue; information is distorted and possibly false" - B. Brady).

Now as previously discussed, the visionary 8 North of April 8, 2024 conjuncts Chiron, also @19Ari24 and near America's 1776 Chiron (@20Ari08), with 8 North visible across the center of the US from Texas to Maine. And as you know, it's the third Great American Eclipse of 2024 with the second one occurring on August 21, 2017 @29Leo (as noted, above) conjunct Regulus and Trump's natal Ascendant in the 1 North Series. Allegedly making America "great" then, and now, with Election 2024 on the horizon, making America "great" again - by way of a shady political slogan, that is. Of course, you know what the racists mean: making America white again.

And so the next visible Total Eclipse in the US will be the 10 South Solar Eclipse of August 22, 2044, and it will be opposed by Pluto Rx @1Pis35. This opposition from transformative Pluto indicates a choice between two courses: either the highest spiritual level is attained, or reversion into the basest animalism is the case. Yes, we're mired within such circumstances now, culminating with the 2024 Election to decide on either the relatively free society we're accustomed to vs a tyrannical gnatzie-style regime of strong-man barbarism profanely blended with holier-than-thou legislated theocracy. Most folks by now have heard of the draconian plan known as "Project 2025" set to explode on Inauguration Day 2025 if a fascist coups the White House in November.

Note: if you're unfamiliar with the SACR organization of Christian Nationalists and Christian Marriage promoters ("domination in the home" easily becomes S'n'M practices when mishandled - as they will be), check out The Guardian's coverage. I am informed that "SACR" is pronounced "sacker."

And yet a sextile from Mars @3Sco18 to the 2044 Eclipse helps moderate the baser energies although backsliding is possible, especially with lusty Mars in sexy Scorpio.

Not So Fast, 2044!

Yet we should mention that an additional 10 South Eclipse occurs between now and the Eclipse of August 22, 2044. Actually, it manifests quite soon on August 12, 2026 @20Leo01 and is featured in the dual image, shown below. In Leo, an eclipse spotlights the need for expressing the positive qualities of Leo rather than pompousness, self-glorification, boasting, and egocentricity which stymies positive karmic growth and problem solving.

One thinks of the toxic narcicissism in the spotlight today: politicians and CEOs so desperate for total control of the US government, US finances and resources, and societal standards while pushing regressive policies existing as far back as the 1800s (or even further as with Alito's repeal of Roe v Wade). But as everyone knows, "time travel" is not a thing so irrationality is a basic feature of their paternalistic ideologies, not a glitch.

Leo (Aquarius) Then Virgo (Pisces)

Now with an eclipse in modest Virgo as in 2044, qualities such as hard work, dedication, discernment, and perceptive analysis are required for best results, with criticism kept to a minimum. Plus, @00Virgo, the 2044 Eclipse conjuncts royal star Regulus with its caution: success if revenge is avoided; otherwise all gains will be taken away (as Regulus-rising Trump is fighting against now). As you know, an eclipse conjunct a fixed star strengthens both their influences.

Set for Washington DC, above is a dual image of the 2026 and 2044 Horoscopes of 10 South Total Eclipses. The 2044 manifestation will be visible in Greenland, Canada, and the US with its path of Totality racing over Montana, North Dakota, and South Dakota. The 2026 Eclipse will pass over the Arctic, Greenland, Iceland, the Atlantic Ocean, and Northern Spain. Naturally, one thinks of melting ice and other water events, but also the fire element can be involved with an Eclipse in Sun-ruled Leo.

Cosmic time links exist between both these eclipses and with previous eclipses such as the "Nostradamus" Eclipse of August 11, 1999 in the 1 North Saros Series (repeated in August 2017) with 1999's rigid Fixed Grand Cross of planets. These time links may be topics of future posts.

Then for a broader view, the cosmic lens through which all subsequent manifestations of 10 South Eclipses may be viewed is the initial Eclipse in the Series, its sign, house and aspects. The first 10 South Eclipse occurred on March 10, 1179 (OS) @26Pis01 (transit Neptune's Zodiacal swimming pool in late Pisces). Then since Pisces is associated with cloudiness, I'd suggest Pisces as a spiritual lens along with Collective Unconscious implications since many of the events of 1179 involved The Crusades and other battles for control, both spiritual and temporal. And yet we know that with shady Pisces, secrecy, mystery, confusion, and/or crime cannot be ruled out.

So this is my overview of two Total Eclipses Over America: 8 North on April 8, 2024 and 10 South of August 22, 2044. If you find any value in this post, dear reader, please pass it along since few readers ever share my SO'W posts (discouraging!) yet it is much appreciated when a share occasionally happens.
