DC Horoscope: Jupiter Direct Station @13Virgo May 9, 2016

Image:Jupiter Direct Station May 9, 2016 at 8:14:20 am EDT Washington DC. Potential concerns for Jupiter in Mercury-ruled Virgo include moral and ethical values, scientific research, learning and teaching, excessive ambition, harmonious teamwork, good organizational skills, and superficial criticism. And of course, Jupiter may wear many hats such as politician, banker, guru or priest, judge or lawyer, and the General. (Edit: actor and broadcaster.)

As you see, transit Jupiter, once Direct, will encounter the North Node (NN) once again with nebulous Neptune at South Node (the tail of the dragon) so this period is half way between the Jupiter-Neptune conjunction/s of 2009 which has imprinted its issues of grand visions, speculation, and fraud upon the presidency of Barack Obama, and describes some of what he has dealt with since taking office (ex: Crash 2008, big bank bail outs, etc.)

Now the above horoscope shows Jupiter's precise moment of directional change so once the great Benefic moves forward, such realms as Jupiter rules may move forward as well though a hearing for President Obama's Supreme Court nominee apparently will not be one of them due to Republican obstructionism which is a Saturnian kind of cussedness.

Edit: neglected is a mention of May 9, 2016 as the day of a Mercury Transit to the Sun.

Violent Protests as rebel Uranus Returns to its Fascist Solar Eclipse degree

2016 Trends of Violence and Government Take-Over

by Jude Cowell

In February 2011, I posted the Fascism Rising Solar Eclipse horoscope of 1933 which you see, below. As the Campaign 2016 rallies of Republican candidate Donald Trump have forced violence into view and is being fully covered by the news media, we should note that transiting Uranus, America's totem planet of rebellion, revolt, revolution, shock, and disruption, is now in process of returning to its Mars-ruled Aries degree in the 1933 eclipse chart:

Added to the disruptive shock of the current Uranus Return (2016 to 1933) are the two interlaced YOD patterns with their turning point-crossroads-special task vibes of crisis. For more info on the Fascism Rising horoscope, here is my original post. You will note other current transits to the planets of 1933 and, of course, the recurring Uranus-Pluto square (Aries square Cancer in 1933) of a titanic generational clash as we've been experiencing again in this, the New Millennium, but with Pluto in Capricorn (signature of 'the dictator'). It seems to me that megalomaniac Trump's rhetoric triggers the violent Marseillaise Mars-Jupiter-Neptune trio to march again to the Bastille with fists and elbows ready to strike all who disagree.

Now as you know, Uranus in Aries is the blind zealot and fanatic anarchist (Ebertin) and along comes candidate Trump born under Mars Rising with kingmaker star Regulus in tow--in egoistic Leo. Mr. Trump has made himself a willing vessel for violent Mars-Uranus energies that seek expression in our era for we know that fascist authoritarian elements in the Collective never disappear completely, they simply cower in darkness in preparation for another government take-over attempt as they re-arm to fight another day.

Loaves and fishes! Since I rarely take time to check out FOX News or keep up with their on-air authoritarian personalities' anti-social views, I'm glad that David Pakman and crew are on the case:
