D. 'John' Trump defies The Magna Carta

Does an 'Evil King John' Lurk Among Us Again?

by Jude Cowell, partisan for democracy and the common good

As many political pundits apparently believe, Trump's "Divine Right of Kings" Claim probably won't hold up at the Supreme Court, as tentatively stated in a recent MSN editorial.

And as we know, the Magna Carta, which King John was forced by a group of barons to sign, was a document created in order to limit the power of rulers and rid society of the tyrannical "Divine Right of Kings," among other things.

After all, the document was signed under the influences of a 10 South Eclipse in pioneering Aries - conjunct Ceres, asteroid archetype of democracy and the nurturing and protective mother! Progressing the Magna Carta Horoscope to this very today we reach an evolved Sun Virgo-Moon Leo blend of potentials for "monarch vs servant," high standards and intellectual strength, along with a tendency to "mother the world." Plus, one of the blend's Images for Integration tracks: "A science museum inside a medieval castle" (The Harveys).

10 South themes are listed, lower right corner.

So here from my files is the document's Sun-at-Midheaven Horoscope with a few study notes penned on: Magna Carta June 15, 1215 12:00 pm LMT Runnymeade, England with separative Uranus @00Lib02 rising at a Cardinal World Point of Manifestation, and sporting a positive potential for coping ability:

Note: You'll find a few differences between the above chart and the Windsor GMT version of the Magna Carta Horoscope if you wish to have look.

Subsequently, the Magna Carta's power limitations and other provisions have formed the basis for multiple agreements through the centuries such as the Declaration of Independence. Significant to our current day is the lawlessness inherent within the Divine Right of Kings to perpetrate any and all crimes (ex: assassinating political rivals), and this is what Tr*mp's bogus "absolute immunity" claim (aka, "presidential immunity") is all about: to ignore the Magna Carta so that the orange mobster can run wild and abandon the rule of law, during what the scofflaw hopes will be his second term lurking in the Venusian Oval Office, removing all legal cases against him - oh, and selling the rest of America's secrets to the highest bidder.

So besides primal violence (Pluto), his threat to Magna Carta provisions spotlights his intention to destroy the US Constitution (too limiting for a fac*st!) so that the American Carnage he threatened on January 20, 2017 can proceed uninterrupted, and revenge against, and purging of (both Plutonian goals), his opponents may be perpetrated without any accountability laid upon his guilty doorstep. And yes, his plans include murder, one of assassin Pluto's most sinister roles. We scoff at such a suggestion at our peril.

Then astrologically, one obvious place Tr*mp's primal violence urges may be found is in his natal 12th house of the Unconscious (and of Self-Undoing and prisons!) through his fatality-prone midpoint picture of Mars-Saturn = Pluto, with Mars-Saturn known as the death axis, and "the death of many people" being a consequence of its potentials (R. Ebertin).

You Didn't Drink a Bleach Cocktail, Did You?

Of course, we've already seen and experienced tragic consequences with one example being millions of Covid deaths in the US occurring during his "presidential term" - and now we're seeing another possible result of his 12th house midpoint picture, a more positive one, via the legal system: "intervention of a higher power." But of course, agent orange is a hostage-taker and he threatens dire retaliation if he should face a prison cell. After all, his natal Tisiphone Rx @22Sagittarius, asteroid of retaliation, conjuncts his natal Moon-Sun opposition upon the fated Nodal axis - and his Mars in Leo opposes and targets US 1776 Moon in late Aquarius = his aggression against the American People is plainly shown.

So in closing, my thoughts include the assertion that the world has already experienced one evil King John centuries ago and we do not need or seek another in order to discover what such tyranny brings because we already know what dangers to expect from an unsavory Tr*mp v2 model.

Of note is the Wikipedia page of the Magna Carta containing historical details, plus, a list of the signatory Surety Barons, some of which are my ancestors and probably yours, too! If you're registered with geni dot com, you can easily check them out.

When Pluto Conjuncts US South Node

7 Aquarius: "A Child Born Of An Eggshell"

by Jude Cowell

The following horoscopes and post belong in Stars Over Washington's "forearmed is forewarned" category. As such, it may not be suitable for every reader so please monitor yourselves.

Below is a bi-wheel of charts set for Washington DC:

March 18, 2027 with transit Pluto @6AQ35 conjunct US 1776 South Node (1st such conjunction since April 6, 1781) in center surrounded by November 16, 2028, the 5th of 5 conjunctions from transit Pluto to US 1776 South Node (the 1st since December 8, 1782). The July 4, 1776 Horoscope 5:09 pm LMT Philadelphia, PA is used for this post with our 1776 South Node @6AQ35 in 2nd house although other US charts may be preferred and will provide similar results and dates. As you see, there are two time periods involved approximately 246 years apart because with Pluto it's karma a long time coming.

Hopefully you can see my notes penned on the image, for there's an intense Moon-Pluto signature along with the Pluto-SN implications (similar to the harsh Pluto-Saturn duo), plus, the fifth and final conjunction in November 2028 occurs as a New Moon @25Scorpio43/55 is beginning to wane:

Also significant is the fact that, between the two dates and cosmic events you see pictured above, a 12 North Solar Eclipse will manifest on January 26, 2028 @6AQ11:01 at 10:12:28 am est Washington DC - conjunct transit Pluto (eclipse chart not shown) and conjunct US South Node suggesting past events involving power and the collective. On a positive level Pluto conjunct Eclipse indicates a powerful, charismatic leader. Negatively it suggests such things as gang wars, rape, and other criminal offences (R. Lineman).

But as we know, such is creepy Pluto of the Criminal Underworld: organized crime, debauchery, and yes--the papacy. Obviously, America will continue to need a strong leader who will fight against the global criminal network/s (as we need now), someone who understands that this is what it will take to vanquish saboteurs, traitors, and other bad faith actors.

Now here are the dates when slow-moving Pluto did, and will, conjunct US South Node; for both time periods it's 5x each, all @6AQ35:

1. April 6, 1781

2. June 7, 1781

3. February 1, 1782

4. August 28, 1782

5. December 8, 1782

And:

1. March 18, 2027 (shown above)

2. June 30, 2027

3. January 21, 2028

4. September 19, 2028

5. November 16, 2028 (shown above).

Further clues may be found by sleuthing into events and conditions during 1781 and 1782, years of the American Revolution, and since we know that history has a habit of rhyming rather than repeating, we'll have opportunities to better deal with Pluto-SN conditions, events, and the people who instigate them so that the positive "powerful, charismatic leader" can be the primary outcome and this will make all the difference.

No, things won't be easy over the next few years but we can manage. Because after all, forewarned is forearmed - so, dear reader, do America a solid and pass this example of measured optimism around!

January 2024: Big Trouble at the NRA

On January 5, 2024, the NRA tweeted that Wayne LaPierre will resign from his top position in the organization as of January 31, 2024. His resignation comes amidst his current civil corruption trial in Manhattan, NY which opens this Monday (1/8/24), last I heard.

For reference, here's a previously published dual image with NRA November 17, 1871 and the group's current Jupiter Return Horoscope from 2014, still in effect until Summer 2026:

Significant planetary transits are now affecting the NRA Horoscope of November 17, 1871 and the most obviously connected to LaPierre's corruption trial and to the group's dwindling membership fees in recent years is transit Pluto opposing the organization's Jupiter (exalted in Cancer, and at Station Rx @29Can55: '30Cancer' = "A Daughter of the American Revolution" -- interesting, since the NRA is a Civil-War-era concoction). Note that 1871 Jupiter conjuncts the group's intense Venus-Pluto midpoint which suggests a picture of "Propagation of destructive impulses" and/or "intense feelings of pleasure from power or destruction" (M. Munkasey).

Of course, bankruptcy is a lurking potential when this planetary duo is involved, so hopefully a full-on search for hidden rubles has been done, perhaps offshore and in foreign bank accounts and super-secret vaults. What Mr. LaPierre hasn't frittered away, that is.

Perhaps you've seen this 3M26S video clip The NRA lies about its bankruptcy filing.

Because we know that the Venus-Pluto duo hints at "extremes of private wealth hidden in secret places" and to finances (as does Jupiter), and to "attracting elements of organized crime" (M.M.). Well, guns do that, don't they?

Anyway, the Pluto-Jupiter opposition, coming on for some time, reveals a period of legal battles with financial consequences. One example you may remember: NY AG Letitia James squashed the group's plan to transfer their assets from New York to Texas.

Simultaneously, other current transits include Uranus Rx @19Taurus conjunct 1871 Pluto (past control may be lost; abrupt changes), legal eagle planet Saturn square 1871 Mercury (opinions challenged, delays, blocked communications), and North Node conjunct 1871 Neptune (meetings about corruption and fraud).

Well, it's all karmic, isn't it? An established organization taken low by its own underhandedness and now legal eagle Saturn makes decisions for its future. Of course, Chapter 11 filing would mean the NRA could reorganize--so maybe they'll behave in a more upright fashion in the future. What do you think?

Are Judges Scared Trump Mob Will Come After Them? - Thom Hartmann clip

Here's Thom with a question that the Mainstream Media should be discussing but seldom if ever does:

Of course judges and SCOTUS justices are wary if not scared of the Trump Mob! Wouldn't you be if agent orange used his rhetoric to send thugs against you and your family?

Astrologically, challenging planetary transits are in force right now in relation to the SCOTUS Horoscope of 1790 (1st session) and the Judiciary Act of 1789 Horoscope. If you check out the charts, note Nemesis in both charts, the positions of brilliant Minerva, asteroid of accomplishment, plus, the fact that the 1789 Act was signed during a 7 South Saros Series time period - the one we're in right now with its forceful Mars-Pluto-square energies - and that the 1st session of the Court in 1790 was held under the auspices of an 8 North Eclipse. And as you know, an 8 North Eclipse repeats on April 8, 2024 @19Ari54 (conjunct Chiron @19Ari54) as the third of three total Great American Eclipses with vibes of "visions and prophetic dreams" (B. Brady).

Previously appearing on SO'W: The Very First Great American Eclipse in 1878, a year of President Rutherford B. Hayes, yellow fever outbreaks, the Lincoln County War in New Mexico, the Posse Comitatus Act signed into law to protect the American people from the military, the final Salem Witch Trial held in America, and other events of significance. Obviously, a related current event issuing from the Posse Comitatus Act of 1878 is wanna-be dictator Trump's sinister urge to use the US military to go after his opponents. See The Eclipse of PROJECT 2025.

So! it's 1. Great American Eclipse 1878: Rutherford B. Hayes and his controversial election;

2. Great American Eclipse 2017: Donald Trump with his controversial election and the help he received from abroad and from wealthy anti-democracy donors determined to destroy the US Constitution;

3. Great American Eclipse 2024: Joseph R. Biden in the White House, sore loser Trump's Big Lie ongoing to disguise his loss in November 2020 - and with democracy on the line for Election 2024 while enemies of America, both foreign and domestic, work to cheat their fascist way into authoritarian control of our country by use of disputed presidential elections, for one thing.

Vote Blue in November 2024 to Save Democracy and say NO! to a dystopian society of primal violence.

President Biden to speak on the third J6 anniversary

Seditionist in the Cosmic Spotlight!

by Jude Cowell, partisan for democracy and the common good

Said to sharpen his rhetoric concerning insurrectionist Trump, President Biden is scheduled to speak on the occasion of the third anniversary of Trump's J6 coup attempt - at Valley Forge, Pennsylvania! Then he's on to South Carolina for a second event. See MSN's: Biden's Jan 6 Anniversary Speech for details. Plus, CNN characterizes Biden's J6 events as the opening of his Campaign 2024. So it appears that President Biden is rarin' to go - and plain truths will be aired!

Now I've yet to find an exact time, day or evening, for his Valley Forge speech so here is a speculative 12:00 pm chart for January 6, 2024 marked with my study notes and set for Valley Forge, PA; when the hour is known, we'll want to adjust the timing accordingly:

See upper right corner: Mercury conjuncts the Electoral College Vote Eclipse of December 14, 2020 (@23Sag08) in the discontented 4 South Saros Series, a grumpy eclipse that qualifies as one of the sore loser inspirations for Trump's 'Big Lie'. Here, Mercury's presence @23Sag35 reveals the need for logic and reason to be expressed in Mr. Biden's J6 Address to the nation.

Also of note is that the Solar Return 2024 of Trump's J6 coup attempt actually perfects during the early morning hours of January 7, 2024 with Moon in Scorpio, sign of betrayal, and Sun @16Capricorn+, sign of government, law, and business. This blend of conscious and unconscious energies suggests a period of seriousness, strength of character, and constant vigilance, but with a tendency to remain blind to personal prejudices (The Harveys).

And perhaps it means nothing, but I'm compelled to mention that each year, when the Sun is @16Capricorn, it opposes the natal Nemesis @16Cancer of Herr Trump so that a bright light shines upon his asteroid of the 'unbeatable foe', we might say. My guess is that this will be one effect that President Biden will highlight during his J6 speech at Valley Forge. How could he not?

After all, a reference to Campaign 2024 and the soon-up-for-grabs US presidency must be part of the Sun-Nemesis picture along with Trump's seditionist actions on January 6, 2021.

Horoscope: US Chiron Return April 2024

by Jude Cowell, partisan for democracy

Issuing from the late afternoon July 4, 1776 Horoscope of America (DoI) with its 4th house Chiron @20Ari08, here is the first of three Chiron Returns for America in our era. As you see, multiple astro-notes are penned on the chart, and the dates of Chiron Returns #2 and #3 are listed, upper right corner:

As you see, this Return occurs on April 20, 2024, the day of the Jupiter-Uranus Conjunction and the freedom issues and the potential for breakthroughs that the duo's 14-year meeting tends to herald.

Now other American Horoscopes may be used for Return charts with slightly different results, but one reason I continue to like the late afternoon chart for July 4, 17776 is Chiron's Sabian Symbol and the implications of its the 4th house placement of Roots: because after all, our nation did begin with pugilists (aka, combatants) fighting on behalf of independence and freedom from the Big Bully across the sea. Plus, in general the 4th house = Basis/Foundation, and Domestic Scene (and Ending/The Drain but let's not go there: these are what our country's enemies are attempting to achieve: the ending of America and the destruction of democracy here and worldwide so Vote Blue in 2024).

For as we know in 2024, a Big Bully and his comrades are inside the house and doing as much damage as they can.

Yet despite this, Chiron in Aries is an optimistic placement for the Wounded Healer centaur, aka, The Key, and suggests that for best results, our focus should be on our willingness to take risks on behalf of the freedom to do and know more and this resonates closely with the Jupiter-Uranus Conjunction - on the very same day!

Then as you know, there's another prominent cosmic event due in April 2024: a Great American Eclipse number 3 of 3 @19Ari24, a visionary affair that precisely conjuncts transit Chiron and sets up the globe for disruption and a change of direction!

American Democracy targeted in 1971!

The Powell Memo, Corporatism, and Trump circa 1999

by Jude Cowell, partisan for democracy and the common good

Statism + Corporatism = Fascism. And with the third of three total Great American Eclipses approaching on April 8, 2024, this one falling within the 8 North Saros Series, Year 2024 marks a critical turning point for the United States of America, and thus for the rest of the world. For with democracy on the ballot, brutal fascism demands a do-over of the mayhem, death, and suffering its perpetrators brought upon the world in the days of Mussol*ni and Hitl*r, malignant narcissistic psychopaths as they both were.

Now in our time, another malignant narcissistic psychopath raises his Medusa head and will cheat to steal our votes. But will American voters help him in November 2024 by being that self-destructive and stupid--that eager to toss away any decent future for their children? Has empathy been deleted from the heart of America? Despite all obstacles, will a Blue Tsunami wave of voters on November 5, 2024 save our country from the barbarian onslaught that threatens us? Because that's the sizeable response it will take to push back the bullies and send them packing.

So one reason for this particular fuss is to mention that the Powell Memo of August 23, 1971 was an initiating factor in a Republican-led declaration of war on democracy by the corporate class. So asserts Thom Hartmann today in his How the Monopolists Stole the US Government: How Big Business Destroyed the American Dream, an excerpt from Thom's series of "Hidden History" books. And part of his focus in today's excerpt is Lewis Powell Jr's memo. Plus, "American Dream" reminds us of the 8 North Eclipse's theme of 'dreams and visions', yes?

Well, below is a previously published noon horoscope of the Powell Memo, and naturally the Saros Series which influenced the memorandum is signifiant (actually a letter that Lewis Powell wrote to his friend, the then-director of the Chamber of Commerce). That would be the 9 New South @27Leo15 which I believe triggered by degree the Great American Eclipse of August 21, 2017--the one that Trump removed safety glasses and stared straight up at, playing his "sun god Apollo" role. (If actually born on June 14, 1946 at 10:54 am, asteroid Apollo was rising at his birth.)

Astro-Notes are penned on the 1971 'Powell Memo' Horoscope with additional details messily included; an unmarked 9 New South Eclipse August 20, 1971 Horoscope follows:

Aspects to the 1971 Eclipse: Venus conjunct = fair play vs materialism; Jupiter square = a past lack of integrity brings karmic obligations, a need for ethical behavior; Neptune square = chicanery, deception, fraudulent tendencies, a need for realism and honesty; MC/IC square = a "success at any price" attitude compounds problems, acting like a "big shot" to prove one's capabilities, lack of respect for home and family, skewed values (R. Lineman AFA).

Notably, a 9 New South Eclipse repeats on September 21, 2025 @29Virgo, at Autumn Equinox 2025, conjunct the 1776 Midheaven ('MC" @00Libra+) of America's so-called 'Sibly Horoscope'. Then if you've read SO'W posts before, you know that forewarned is forearmed around here, and America's goals and global status (MC) may very well be affected with the "American Dream" possibly dissipating within a Fascist fog of authoritarianism and cruelty to one's fellow man. That is, if Pro-Democracy Voters fail to turn up at voting booths across the land on November 5, 2024.

Because regressive reactionary Republicans are expressing their vile reptilian brains, don't you think?

For more eclipse details see: 8 North Eclipse 2024 vs 6 North of 1986 (horoscopes shown), a recent post about the visions and dreams of the April 2024 Eclipse blending with the "need for authority and control" themes of 6 North's manifestation during the Reagan Era. Plus, here are astro-notes concerning all three Three Great American Eclipses: 1878, 2017, and 2024.

Donald Trump Considered a Prez Run in 1999

Past 'Trump Events' of 1999: Where's the Integrity?

From Buzzfeed News posted January 6, 2017 came an article by Anne Helen Petersen Donald Trump Showed His Hand in 1999, But No One Was Looking concerning a couple of favorable polls in 1999 - one poll by the National Enquirer if that tells us anything. The article contains a list a few major events for Trump in 1999.

Such as: he finalized his divorce from 2nd wife Marla Maples and began dating Slovenian model Melania Knauss, he gloried in a rejuvenation of the Miss USA pageant, he floated the idea of starting a modeling agency, Big Donnie fought a coalition of Upper West Side residents including Walter Cronkite, Paul Newman, and Kofi Annan over the contruction of a huge tower near the UN building, and he "spent months flirting with a run for president."

To quote Trump in 1999, "If the Reform Party nominated me, I'd probably win. And if I did, I would ask for an immediate recount." Such a jokester! However, ongoing opinions on the street at the time included, "Trump makes things happen," and "he's at home with the guy on the street." (They're so fleeceable: he loves the uneducated, he says.) Now these are the same delusional sentiments that were expressed during the 2016 campaign! But this time is different: he's running again, but trying to avoid prison by regrasping power, and itching to make Fascism happen in America so that he can take revenge on all his enemies, please his bosses, and stay in office until he keels over.

And that, ladies and gents, is America's orange albatross.
