Le Donald and "Mama Trump"

by Jude Cowell, partisan for the common good

Reams of information and opinions have been written about the presumptive Republican nominee for 2024, and when we look at the natal horoscope of Mary Anne Trump, mother of Le Donald, we find planetary contacts between them as one would expect between mother and son, uncontrollable as Uranian Donald is said to have been, and continues to be.

In fact, a "military" reform school became necessary for the little bully and it's said that the young Donald thrived there, enjoying the "hazing" among other activities. It's also said that Mama Trump left New York each summer for Scotland, her homeland, in order to get away from her son. My suspicion is that there was more to it than this, but escaping from an uncontrollable offspring would certainly have been a plus for her.

An Astrological Comparison of Planets

Handily, both Donald's and "Mama Trump"'s natal charts are RR:AA for accuracy. Below you see a bi-wheel with Mama Trump in center, Le Donald outer, plus, the "noon" natal planets of Fred ("Papa" Trump") are penned around the outside of the bi-wheel and are highlighted in green:

Four significant factors pop out to me between Mama Trump and son:

1. Both were born with Mercury-Neptune squares of fantasy, deception, tone deafness, lack of discrimination, and "the sneaky mind" (A. Oken), and 2. Donald's natal Mars @27Leo opposes his Mama's natal Moon @27AQ which echoes the same opposition between Donald and the US 1776 Moon (We the People) of July 4, 1776, late afternoon. The opposition also reveals something about the "grown-up" Donald's shabby, predatory treatment and rude insults against womankind (symbolized by his early views of Mama Trump) but the topic is beyond the scope of this brief post.

Then perhaps with number 3, we see his Moon-South-Node conjunction showing the duo's emotional alienation and estrangement from one another with separations each summer the best outlet Mama Trump could come up with to manage this unfortunate energy and the lack of sympathy it suggests. And notably, Moon-opposite-Mars is the "Don't tred on me" aspect (A. Oken)!

4. As for Mama Trump's difficulties with Baby Donald, a Lunar Eclipse @23Sag04 on the day of his birth suggests what may have been health concerns for her (Moon inconjunct both Venus and Saturn) along with any emotional issues she may have had regarding the pregnancy.

Actually, some form of violence may have been involved, and since Trump's J6 coup attempt upon the US Congress resulted in violent acts, it seems significant to me, if not to you, that his day-of-birth Lunar Eclipse was activated by the Electoral College Vote 4 South Solar Eclipse of December 14, 2020 (@23Sag08) with its themes of 'strong emotions over relationships and/or money; anger, lust; events beyond control; a sense of fatedness; a sudden urge to end unions ("ha*g Mike Pence"?); great frustration due to blocked emotions; avoid taking rash action for best results' (paraphrasing B. Brady).

And so the hostility, aggression, distaste, criticism, targeting, scapegoating, and a variety of negative emotions issuing from Mars-rising Donald's vengeful, grudge-holding personality are inherent within this configuration of conflict (Moon-Mars) with its malicious motives and this ought to be obvious, distasteful, and unacceptable to a majority of Americans as they plan to Vote for Democracy in November 2024.

Meanwhile, Le Donald continues to rebelliously act out against deep feelings of unlovability (from Mama), and the bullying he experienced via Papa Fred's powerful Pluto conjunct his natal Sun in Gemini while opposing and devastating Donald's natal Moon and Luna's reigning need (Sag). For as Donald's natal Jupiter in Libra (conjunct his Astraea, asteroid of Justice!) constantly cries into the ether to anyone who will listen, "It's not fair!"

Trump Trial May 28, 2024

The Criminal Trump Trial for Election Interference: Rebellion

by Jude Cowell, partisan for the common good

Horoscope: Tuesday May 28, 2024 9:30 am edt Manhattan, NY; Judge Merchan presiding:

As you see in the above chart, 1Leo04 rises which brings up Trump's natal 12th house cusp of incarceration; behind-the-scenes (as in, house arrest?). Or am I only dreaming that this lifelong criminal and sexual predator will finally be taken off the streets, if only for a short while? But of course, this also brings up his lethal midpoint picture: Pluto = Mars-Saturn.

Well, no matter how legalities proceed, according to the planetary configurations shown above, we can potentially expect "rebellion, upheaval, and challenges leading to a fight" via warrior planet Mars (his appeal of the case? and/or physical unrest?). Then the Moon-Pluto conjunction suggests zeal and upheaval by intense people. This pairing could also relate to the people feeling emotionally overwhelmed by the verdict when it comes, and the rage that is certain to follow a conviction.

Meanwhile, check out the Moon's and Sun's Sabian Symbols which are penned on the chart. And notably, chart-ruler Sun makes no applying Ptolemaic aspects so its sign, degree, and house are emphasized.

Libertarian Party Audience Heckles Trump

by Jude Cowell, partisan for the common good

By now you've seen clips of Trump being loudly booed and heckled as he attempted to deliver a speech at the Libertarian Convention now in progress (May 23--May 26). Agent Orange was trying to beg for Libertarian votes in November!

Checking the history of the Libertarian Party (US) we find that the party formed on December 11, 1971 after months of debate by a Committee founded on July 17th. The new party was publicly announced at a press conference on January 31, 1972. According to the party's Wikipedia page, the group formed partially as a response to Nixon's price controls and the ending of the Gold Standard.

Actually, we've discussed these topics previously such as in March 2021 with this: An Eclipse Series ended in 1931: The End of an Epoch. That was in the UK. The 9 Old South Series that ended on July 22, 1971 is noted therein with 1971 being the year that the US ended reliance upon the Gold Standard which helped sparked the formation of the Libertarian Party.

So! Let's take a peek at a noon Horoscope of the Libertarian Party, shall we? Unmarked by my usual study notes, it's suitable for printing if you wish:

Horoscope: Libertarian Party December 11, 1971 "noon" Colorado Springs, CO; Hour of the Moon (changes; fluctuations); ASC 13Pis26; MC 20Sag49; Sun 20Sag04/Moon 12Lib11, a 'live wire' Fire-Air blend with tendencies toward gregariousness, intellectualism, charisma, and a quick wit. The Harveys describe this combination of conscious and unconscious energies as a "frequenter of coffee shops" (!), and a blend which can be gullible, has a need for social advancement, and to "come down to earth" when being overly expansive. The blend's "Image for Integration" is rather interesting: "The Dead Poets' Society" and is shared natally by Jane Austen and Walt Disney.

Then as you see, there's a high flying Kite pattern of success anchored by the Saturn-Neptune opposition of subterfuge (Neptune the nose, Saturn the tail) but only if we allow the South Node @6AQ30 to be one of the points of the Kite. Perhaps we should since this South Node conjuncts US 1776 South Node marking the period as a Nodal Return for America, a time when new associations are formed.

Meanwhile, powerful wealth-hoarder 1971 Pluto @1Lib53 leads a ruthless Locomotive shape of the planets while radical Uranus @17Lib29 conjuncts the natal 2nd house Jupiter Stationary of NY playboy Donald Trump, age 25 in 1971. Perhaps this planetary contact partially accounts for the booing and heckling of Le Donald at the Libertarian Convention since Uranus symbolizes separation and disruption and is Trump's natal 10th house guiding planet of chaos, zealous radicalism, and Utopian ideals of lawlessness. He's uncontrollable and they know it.

Venus, planet of pespectives, evaluations, and currency is out-of-bounds @15Cap45 (conjunct US 'Powell' Moon in the July 1, 1776 "first vote" chart), and this founding chart reveals a 3rd quarter phase - crisis in consciousness - strong with Mutable-Fire Angularity (noon is only speculative). No planet is in a Fixed sign, only the South Node in Aquarius.

Then there's Mars in Pisces squaring Sun, Mercury, and Jupiter with potentials for restlessness, self-seeking, a sharp tongue, compulsive speech repetition, extravagance, overindulgence, and/or taking on too much at once.

To close, I'll mention two more factors: the most prominent midpoint picture in effect all day is Pluto-NN = Neptune: success through lies and fraud (R. Ebertin); the power of the half-truth; deception as a tool; win at any cost (N. Tyl), and the Party's Prenatal Solar Eclipse ('PE") which influenced its formation, the 9 New South @27Leo15 (conjunct you-know-who's natal Mars rising which suggests his headstrong, violent tendencies) which manifested on August 20, 1971.

Themes of 9 New South include worrisome news and responsibilities with paperwork come home to roost (paraphrasing B. Brady). The next 9 New South arrives on September 21, 2025 (basically an 'Autumn Equinox 2025 Eclipse') @29Vir05 with Uranus Rx @1Gem21 conjunct the Libertarian Party's 1971 Saturn suggesting reevaluation and possibly the altering of certain rules, regulations, and restrictions. Notably, the 2025 Eclipse will land upon the Party's 1971 Pluto, a power aspect that negatively can indicate revelations of criminality (R. Lineman).

All in all, the Libertarian Party's founding horoscope is quite Jupiterian (Sag), plus, the Gold Standard and price controls set them off, so I'd suppose that most issues then and now have to do with finances, don't you? But with a side order of Jupitarian issues of freedom, ideology, and boundary-breaking - and quite a large load of deception.

Many Thanks to all readers who have 'bought me a coffee' for your generous support encourages the continuation of this lonely work! Jude

14 North's Peculiar Events

Today's Full Moon @2Sag55 and a Fussy Post

by Jude Cowell, partisan for democracy

The history of NAFTA and its replacement, the US-Mexico-Canada Agreement (USMCA) by the Trump administration (in effect July 1, 2020) tells the story of US attempts at establishing a North American "free trade zone" beginning with Ronald Reagan in 1979. Sounds like clearing a path for globalism to me! And perhaps you've heard of 1992 candidate Ross Perot's warning against NAFTA regarding "that giant sucking sound going South" as US jobs chased cheaper labor elsewhere. Obviously, Mr. Perot was correct.

Delusion and A Peculiar Turn of Events

And so NAFTA passed the House on November 17, 1993 (234-200), passed the US Senate on November 20, 1993 (61-38) - and became effective on January 1, 1994 - all under the influence of a 14 North Solar Eclipse @21Sco31:41 (November 13, 1993).

Then for the sake of comparison, 14 North is the Saros Series of the "Sequester Eclipse" of November 25, 2011 @2Sag36:48 - with quirky zealot Uranus Rx conjunct the Aries Point of Global Events, and shady, secretive financial dealings perpetrated by what was dubbed a "Super Congess." So this is the 14 North @2Sag36 that was activated this morning by the Full Moon @2Sag55, and here I am fussing about it all.

Of course, as all solar eclipses are, the 2011 Eclipse was a New Moon so potentially, under the spotlight of today's Full Moon at the same degree, we might soon hear financial news or gain information that in some measure relates to the crisis-ridden sequestration murkiness of 2011's sneakily formed under-the-table "Super Congress" with its restrictive solutions for our debt-ceiling crisis of 2011, or news that involves secret financial dealings.

Other than this fussy post, of course!

Meanwhile, today's Full Moon may likely relate to the ongoing Trump Trial soon to draw to a close in Manhattan, Judge Merchan presiding. Mr. Trump certainly seems to be mired within a debt crisis of his own creation, yes?

So above is a dual image of the 1993 14 North Eclipse (lower left) and the 14 North Eclipse of 2011 (upper right) with the initial 14 North of April 29, 1074 @13Tau54 listed on the right, and the next 14 North listed in the upper right corner.

Then besides the shadiness, peculiarity, and despair of it all, 1993 Jupiter and 2011 Jupiter Rx are in opposition across the financial Taurus-Scorpio axis which signals discontent in the money department sparking a potential for overblown efforts!

For as everyone knows, moderation tends to be the best course rather than overdoing issues and draining one's energy - or emptying the National Treasury.

Q: Is there a prominent historical event that occurred under the influence of a 14 North Eclipse? Why yes, the Valley Forge Encampment of General Washington and Our Exhausted Troops in 1777. Now there's a perfect example of drained energy.

And from 2022, here's an informative Thom Hartmann clip How China Can and Will Use NAFTA Against America.

Fascism Won’t Be What You Expect w/ Michael Tomasky: Thom Hartmann clip

by Jude Cowell, partisan for the common good

Thom Hartmann's recent interview with journalist Michael Tomasky, editor of The New Republic concerning "American Fascism" is revelatory so I'm sharing it here for those who may have missed it and who are determined to keep barbaric Fascism outside America's gates. For as you know, this antiquated, dystopian vision of world domination has been forcefully tried before in the 1930s and 40s and been proven to be a brutal death cult that no one but criminals wants back again:

For astrological details see Karmic Saturn 2024 Contacts the Fascism Rising Solar Eclipse of 1933. This is the 7 North Eclipse to which I added the word "blood-" to its themes of -lust and long-hidden passion takes people by surprise (Brady) due to the current crop of malevolent Thugs for Tr*mp.

May 23, 2024 Full Moon @3Sag

by Jude Cowell

On Thursday morning May 23, 2024 a Full Moon @2Sag55 perfects over Washington DC at 9:53:07 am edt. The Full Moon Horoscope, below, displays the Moon out-of-bounds (OOBs: estranged, alienated) leading a BOWL shape of advocacy for cause. Check the lower right corner for a few astro-notes re: a Sagittarian Moon and note that the Air-Fire Sun Gemini-Moon Sag blend is that of Mr. Trump with its hypnotic "Pied Piper" vibes and an ability to "wiggle out of tight corners like Peter Pan" (The Harveys):

Fact is, a Full Moon is the culminating stage in the monthly lunar process and this one was seeded at the May 7, 2024 New Moon @18Taurus - the Syzygy Moon of the current Trump Trial - and can likely relate to the Trump Trial for Election Interference in Judge Merchan's Manhattan courtroom, a possibility as the criminal trial nears its close. This potential was suggested to me by my friend, master astrologer and author Michelle Young.

A final factor worth noting is that the May 23rd Full Moon @3Sag conjuncts the natal Ascendant of President Biden (peep-eye!) while the opposing Sun conjuncts his natal Uranus (2Gem46 Rx) which spotlights his unique qualities, relates to group organization, and yet some measure of disloyalty may also be under scrutiny.

Trump hails a "unified Reich" if re-elected

by Jude Cowell, partisan for democracy

When we discussed The Nazi Regime and Election 2024 back in 2022, little did we know that Herr T would say the quiet part out loud via a video posted to his "Truth" Social platform in which he referenced a "unified Reich" if he's re-elected in November. Allegedly, a staffer actually posted it while Big T sat or slept in a Manhattan courtroom on trial for election interference, Judge Merchan presiding.

Providing Americans with some murkiness to this disturbing issue, his "unified Reich" reference may possibly be more in relation to the formation of the German Empire in 1871, as the Associated Press reports.

Well, then! Let's consider for a moment the two German Empire Horoscopes of 1871, shall we? Both are found in Nicholas Campion's The Book of World Horoscopes (#ad): 1. German Empire - legal January 1, 1871 00:00 am LMT Berlin, Germany, ASC 7 Lib05; Mars rising (#123); 2. German Empire - proclamation January 18, 1871 13:00 LMT Versailles, France, ASC 11Gem49; Jupiter Rx rising (#124).

However, such cover is threadbare for I think the Third Reich Horoscope of January 30, 1933 (#126) with its Uranus @19Ari54, now conjunct by the 8 North Eclipse of April 8, 2024 @19Ari24 which conjuncts wounded Chiron @19:24, resonates more closely to Herr T and the GOP's dystopian "Project 2025" agenda of concentration camps, don't you?

For comparison, here's the murderous monster's 1933 Horoscope - a death cult (inner) - with the 8 North Eclipse of 2024 surrounding:

All Eclipses Are Uranian Wild Cards!

Disruptive planet Uranus can act now, then, or never so what to expect from Uranian energies blended with a significant Total Solar Eclipse that raced across the US form Southwest to Northeast? It's all about group karma, and people's attitudes toward society in general.

Specifically, we must look at the seditious malcontents that society now deals with for the combination of chaotic Uranus with a disruptive Eclipse reveals the zealots and anarchists now fomenting rebellion and sedition for selfish purposes of their own. Herr T wants a successful coup of the US government to seem inevitable. But, dear reader, it's only an old dream.

Recently on SO'W: Nazism Then and Now: The Threat Is Real. But it's only a threat - not a given!

Here's a single view of the Third Reich Horoscope where we see wounded Chiron rising on the Taurus Ascendant - conjunct Herr Trump's natal Midheaven ('MC') of Aspirations. Well, not every wish can come true, ole fella. He's mighty long in the tooth!

And finally, here's a Horoscope of the initial 8 North Eclipse of 1501 in early Gemini. The chart displays an interesting cosmic time link through Saturn @8Gemini conjunct the Eclipse (those with a serious view of their karmic obligations) - conjunct US 1776 Uranus, symbolizing our original malcontented rebels, zealots, and anarchists who helped establish America. But now, as you know, the current crop of sore losers and their enabling ideologues and wealthy corporatists want to tear our nation down - as if they have a right!

Well, I don't know about you, but my Revolutionary War ancestors say, No! What do you say?
