July 23, 2021 brings the Biden Presidency's first un-birthday!

July 14, 2021: On May 31, 2021 a post with dual DC Horoscopes was published here as DC Horoscopes: July 2021 Lunations showing the just-past New Moon of July 9th (18Can01) and the upcoming Full Moon of Friday July 23rd @00Leo26 which perfects at 10:36:45 pm edt.

Well! As the Cosmos would have it, July 23rd at 7:54:45 am edt happens to be the precise "un-birthday" moment of President Biden's Inauguration, aka, his Oath of Office taken on January 20, 2021. We all have them 6 months after our birthdays and if we apply its symbolic meaning to the Biden presidency we find that it times a brief period, perhaps only for a day, when one's course for the year should be reassessed and changes of direction made if necessary. Obviously, this 6-month period lasts until approximately January 20, 2022 - or actually until the exact moment of his presidency's Solar Return 2022.

So it may be interesting to see if around July 23rd and perhaps until the rest of July, any hint of such resconsideration or review is mentioned publicly by the President or by anyone in his administration such as Jen Psaki. Of course, they could prefer to keep such deliberations secret!

So astrologers may wish, if they haven't, to set up the July 23, 2021 un-birthday chart to use as a transit chart for commparison with the Inauguration 2021 Horoscope. If so, please feel free to let me know what you find by leaving an on-topic comment with this post. Thanks! jc

Now here's a related post When Pluto Conjuncts the Inauguration 2021 Midheaven.

Flight Risk to Run for POTUS in 2024!

by Jude Cowell

Tuesday July 13, 2021: If you've watched, heard, or read any of the news concerning CPAC 2021 in Dallas Texas, you know that Tr*mp did appear as expected and spoke for a very long time in his disjointed crazy-quilt fashion much to the delight of his die-hard fans in the audience. Apparently, for the audience it was a satisfying helping of their favorite rants 'n' chants and most, if not all, were (are) in on the joke - that their idol's 'Big Lie' of a stolen election - allegedly with 'fraud' by Democrats as the only reason former guy could have possibly lost the November 2020 election - will catapult him back into a white (supremacist) White House. For this delusion and its trick to work one must ignore the fact that a majority of voters in November 2020 did not want the grudge holding white-supremacist-slash-fascist back at the helm for another four years along with the further damage he could perpetrate upon our society. The blighter!

Mass Complicity!

For all the Tr*mp-ish actors secretly agree that his Goebbels-inspired 'Big Lie' is a mass-produced mystery play that he and his supporters are engaged in like one big happy neo-nazi family, whether consciously or unconsciously. My suspicion is that a percentage of his supporters think his desperation is all about regrasping authoritarian power and control so that they can "own the libs" they've been propagandized to hate, and thereby conquer their favorite wedge issues such as repealing Roe v Wade.

And yet a majority of Americans (liberal and otherwise) know that Tr*mp wants to scramble back to the Oval office with its legal protections so that he can avoid prosecution! Oh, and 'winning' in 2024 would please his overlords, both foreign and domestic, and added value: he could continue to plump up his dwindling bank accounts, wherever they may hide. Besides, he wouldn't want his thugs and goons to one day come after him!

So for cosmic support, you'll note that in the CPAC 2021 New Moon Horoscope of July 9th, the deceptive Neptune-MC midpoint rises which reveals the event's "acting and pretending" "mystery play" flavors, with the New Moon (18Can01) phase itself suggesting that demagogue Tr*mp has begun a new cycle of activity within his political endeavors, all geared toward running in the 2024 Presidential Election. And of course, Moon-ruled Cancer is the sign of tribalism, nationalism, and patriotism (whether feigned or authentic) where his watery Saturn, planet of authority, responsibility, and authenticity, resides. As you know, Saturn in Cancer loves its independence but tends to be discontented and aggravated by family ties (R. Ebertin). Indictments, perhaps?

Further cosmic evidence of Tr*mp's power-grasping intentions can be found in the CPAC 2021 New Moon Horoscope, linked above, at its Goal-and-Aspiration Point, the Midheaven ('MC") @2Scorpio, the degree of the 6 South Solar Eclipse of October 25, 2022 (just prior to Midterms 2022 on November 8th, the day of a Lunar Eclipse) for the October eclipse is a repetition of the 6 South eclipse which manifested in 1932 as the 'Nazis Rise to Power' Eclipse (two charts set for Berlin and DC; this is my label for the 1932 eclipse, but if you disagree, look at events of 1932 when Nazis were the largest party in the Prussian parliament and Herr H was on his way to grasping full control of the German government in early 1933).

Take Heed: the GOP now the American Fascist Party

So besides the abundant earthly signs of what the fascist-leaning GOP has planned for America (for which my common good sensibilities and Revolutionary ancestors totally reject), the Cosmos is reflecting similar implications for those with watchful eyes and open ears to hear - and be forewarned and ready.

An additional astro-note concerning yesterday's walk-out of Democratic legislators in Texas and their flight to Washington DC to highlight their fight against voter suppression legislation being forced by the Texas GOP. A peek at the Republic of Texas proclamation horoscope of March 2, 1836 reveals quirky Uranus @1Pis11, one degree from the very zodiacal spot (2:11) where transit Jupiter, now Rx, made his standstill on June 20, 2021! A Jupiter-to-Uranus transit suggests involvement in group causes, and gaining more awareness of physical and mental freedom, both good descriptions of current events because Americans' Right to Vote is embedded within the US Constitution, and rescuing the Right to Vote is a worthy cause to believe in.

Above image: my drawing 'Fork'd Way' meant to symbolize the existential path America now trods: Republic vs neo-nazi regime, democracy vs fascism. Democracy needs refreshing! Can you help?

The Saturn-Uranus Cycle of President Joe Biden

July 11, 2021: As you know, Bebe Joe Biden was born on November 20, 1942 with a wide conjunction in Gemini of status quo Saturn Rx and progressive Uranus Rx straddling his natal Descendant (3Gem11). Below is a Horoscope of the Saturn-Uranus Conjunction of 1942 which times the beginning of the Saturn-Uranus Cycle that President Joe Biden was born into. The turmoil and conflicts struggling under the dynamic energies of the ongoing Saturn-Uranus square in the rigid signs of Taurus and Aquarius might make this post useful for at least a few SO'W readers!

Now as you see, the chart is set for Scranton, Pennsylvania since Joseph Robinette Biden was born in that particular location, as the legend goes. Note that relocating the chart to Washington DC makes little difference and, significantly, no planets change houses. A few Sabian Symbols and other chart factors are added to the horoscope so that you don't have to, plus, a smattering of astro-notes concerning the Saturn-Uranus pair of planets are typed below the chart for anyone who might need them although you can certainly think of more potentials for the 'old order vs new order' pair besides those listed:

General Astro-Notes: Saturn-Uranus Potentials

Tension; separation; provocation; self-willedness; obstinacy; limitation of freedom; Israel and Palestine; rebellion (usually against authority); violent acts and violent people; agitators; intervention in destiny; ability to cope; growing stronger by overcoming obstacles (R. Ebertin).

Now here's Saturn-Uranus in Hegelian Dialectic form

'Thesis: Counter-revolutionary rule; interaction of legislative and executive bodies' (as on 1.6.21? - jc); 'balancing conservatives and progressives; legislative processes able to temper traditional needs to new ideas.'

'Antithesis: Restrictions on personal contacts due to political situations which are beyond an enterprise's jurisdiction; control of access to political dissidents; sudden indifference by people to traditional mores or laws.' (Midpoints: Unleashing the Power of the Planets, by Michael Munkasey.)

(Dear whippersnapper: the word is pronounced, mor rays'.)

Well, considering how Republicans are carrying on these days, I'd have to say that 'indifference to ethics' should be tossed into the GOP's scofflaw bag, too.

Meanwhile, there are at least four Sabian Symbols which should be listed on the chart but are not: Sun "13Taurus" = "A Man Handling Baggage" and Moon "20Sagittarius" = "People Cutting Through Ice For Summer Use." Also Venus "28Pisces" = "A Fertile Garden Under a Full Moon" opposite Neptune Rx "28Virgo" = "A Bald-Headed Man Dominates a Gathering of National Figures." (We may have found Joe!) To me the Venus-Neptune opposition represents on one level the Catholic faith in which Mr. Biden takes part, and, as a Protestant, I'll risk typing it out loud: goddess (Venus) idolatry (Neptune), and all the church's graven images, Mary (Venus) being one. Placing womankind upon a pedestal is often involved as well along with issues of Personal Love vs Universal Love (A. Oken) where service to the Collective becomes a life's mission (ex: Joe Biden). There's much more to the dreamy Venus-Neptune duo, of course, but there it is.

So in closing, see lower left for chart-ruler Moon's only applying aspect in the chart, an oposition to Jupiter in Gemini. As you see, the ethics-related Gemini-Sagittarius polarity is intercepted in this chart which adds a fated or karmic flavor to conditions and/or outcomes which must be dealt with. Of course, use a different house system and the interception would probaby disappear, or another one might appear!

And note that activist Mars rises with fixed star Mirzam (to have one's say) along with Phaethon, a mythological figure that tended to take on responsibilities before he was fully prepared.

Previously on SO'W: Karmic Planets Block President Biden into 2022 and for one, I'm sure you've noticed that transit Pluto is opposing his natal Jupiter Rx 25Can08 (natal 8th house), a period when his economic expansion and political objectives are not favored and other beneficial transits and cosmic conditions are needed to mitigate the negative factors. Three exact oppositions from powerful Pluto to his natal Jupiter (exalted in Cancer!) have and will occur all through 2021: January 29, August 4, and finally on December 4, 2021.

July 2021 brings Trump both Lunar and Mars Returns

Saturday July 10, 2021: Below is a dual image of Tr*mp's Lunar Return on July 21, 2021 (lower left; Moon 21Sag12 conjunct his South Node, opposite natal Sun-NN) and his Mars Return of July 24, 2021 (upper right). You'll note that the ongoing transit of Neptune in Pisces opposing US natal Neptune in Virgo (a generational influence timing a period of racial and religious persecution) continues to square Tr*mp's natal Sun-Moon opposition and Nodal Axis which suggests for him a time when fantasy and illusion affect his self-image and public image, when ego demands are difficult to satisfy (are they ever satisfied for him?), an air of confusion and uncertainty surrounds him, chaos and scandals proliferate, a lack of loyalty plagues his circumstances, and marital problems may surface.

Now if the Select Committee's first hearing on the 1/6 insurrection is held on or near July 21st or 22nd as suggested by Committee chair Bennie Thompson (D-MS) (dates subject to change, of course), then these Return horoscopes can provide significant information concerning Trump's moods, emotions, and daily activities (Lunar Return - but also compare to his Solar Return 2021 chart) and a new two-year cycle of activity for him (Mars Return) so hopefully curious readers can manage to read the notes penned upon the charts (they're easier to read when printed, I'm told). We may refer to these Return horoscopes in a later post depending on how events proceed, yet as you know, the charts are full of 'Tr*mp info' whether the Select Committee meets in July or not.

Tr*mp's Lunar and Mars Return Charts for July 2021:

Prominent potentials include "violence" and "upsets" (Lunar Return: ASC = Mars-Uranus), and a "crisis of self-preservation" (Mars Return: ASC = Sun-Pluto); also "exercising influence upon the environment" and "mental domination" (ASC = Mercury-Pluto), plus, "a person of fame" (ASC = Pluto/MC - R. Ebertin). And note that every time his Mars in Leo returns to natal degree, it reinforces his aggressive natal opposition to US natal Moon (We The People) and caution is advised. And note that the ongoing status quo blocks progress Saturn-Uranus square provides fertile conditions in society for upheavals, violent actions, and/or accidents to occur.

Additionally, around the time of the Select Committee's first hearing (if it transpires as announced for July around these dates), these horoscopes may be interesting to review:

And here's a related article from early July that you may or may not have read. I'm linking it in this post because of its rather sassy title, Republicans Terrified As Pelosi Names Patriots and Investigative Heavyweights To 1/6 Committee. To me this seems completely understandable considering that certain Republican congress members went all-in with instigator Tr*mp to "stop the steal" by attacking the very Congress and Capitol Building in which they all work, hoping to establish a neo-nazi foothold of "white supremacy" more securely within the US government. And the more toolish fools among them are still parroting Tr*mp's Big Lie! Meanwhile, Tr*mp's 'Big Lie' and other remarks are turning out to be suitable for legal use against at least one of the 1/6 rioters who followed agent orange's orders on 1/6, one of which was to go to the Capitol and "fight like hell"!

But as it turns out, the rioters' supposed justification for perpetrating a violent attack on our legislative branch of government was only an illusion, a fantasy fed them by you-know-who because he had several axes to grind and, as always, others were expected to do the heavy lifting, tomahawk and flagpole in hand.

Gotta keep those tiny little mitts clean, thinks he!

All that aside, if you haven't you may wish to consider the US Solar Return 2021 Horoscope for cosmic clues about our nation's upcoming solar year and the karmic opportunities for real progress that the Universe is offering our soul-sick nation. And considering all the negativity and destruction that Washington and the Pentagon have visited upon the world these many years, it's truly a gracious wonder that We the People of America have any positive karma left to ponder at all.

Now, dear reader, don't be shy! Your on-topic comments and observations are always welcomed and appreciated as long as your name is included! Jude

Election Day 2024: What Does the Venus Cycle Say?

https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Venus_figure,_Laussel,_replica.JPG

US Election Day November 5, 2024: Portents of Venus in Sagittarius

Friday July 9, 2021: First we should note that a multitude of earth-based social and political factors will affect the final results of the 2024 Presidential Election and quite a few astrologers poo poo the Venus Cycle theory of US elections. However, to me the Venus Cycle seems one of the more basic influences upon who wins and who loses the coveted White House position. The 'goddess' does, after all, reign atop the US Capitol Building and one of her archetypal manifestations as "Columbia" is well known as namesake of the District. Certainly, Venus is no stranger to or in Washington, DC.

Therefore, today I'm plopping the Venus Cycle effect upon US election cycles back into the discourse of SO'W with an eye toward November 5, 2024 when Venus will be in Jupiter-ruled Sagittarius and future references to the 2024 Election will certainly turn up here on SO'W and elsewhere as time flees on.

So here is an excerpt (with a few small edits for clarity) from a previous post written in light of the 2016 Election but with portents that may (or may not) affect the results of Election 2024:

Now as Morning Star, election day Venus favors the incumbent candidate or ruling party (even if 2 terms--8 years-- have been served by the incumbent president) - aka, the "one who wears the crown" as it was termed in the olden days of Mundane Astrology. The Morning Star status of Venus occurs in November (2nd through 8th, when presidential elections are held) when 'the lady' is in the early degrees of Libra, one of the signs Venus rules. Since our elections are on a 4-year cycle, Venus is Evening Star in alternate elections because Venus returns to her same position every 8 years. As Evening Star, her position is the mid-to-later degrees of Jupiter-ruled Sagittarius, sign of the stranger, foreigner, or outsider - someone different or 'other' who acts as the challenger and rival to the throne - such as a non-politician, or an Independent (neither Republican nor Democrat).

But in her Evening Star role, Venus bestows favor upon the incumbent party's rival as if she's wielding influence in the court of a king and 'the crown' is given to the opponent of the ruling king. Yet there have been two notable exceptions to this predictive guide: the successful election of Democrat Franklin D. Roosevelt in 1932 when he whisked away 'the crown' from the head of one-term Republican Herbert Hoover, and the election of Republican Ronald Reagan in 1980 who finagled 'the crown' from one-term Democrat Jimmy Carter. Both elections occurred with Venus as Morning Star (in Libra) yet upsets somehow occurred due in part to both candidates' tendencies to hastily give favors to others and/or make advantageous backroom deals (Iran hostages boosted Reagan; for Hoover, his tide of popularity had turned due to economics after 1929.)

Even so, let's not use the word 'cheating' though I will say that cheating isn't winning, it's stealing. Plus, a fed-up American public can make a difference as well for if we show up and vote in a landslide it's more difficult for operatives to finagle outcomes their way and against We The People's wishes.

But facing facts as this Saturnian astrologer prefers to do, we know that in 2021 the GOP is busy making a 2024 landslide for Democrats more difficult via repressive voting reforms in various states so that it will take an even larger landslide than ever before if we wish to best the nazi-loving cheaters of 2024. And that also goes for Midterms 2022!

Corporatism, Mobsterism, and the Inaugural 2017 Moon in Scorpio

by Jude Cowell

Tuesday July 6, 2021: On May 22, 2018, a horoscope was published here that concerned The Powell Memo: A Genesis of Corporatism in Control. Follow the link for a view of the horoscope set for 'noon' edt in absence of an accurate time, and shows 5Sco30 rising with asteroid of doom and/or abuse of power, Atlantis @9Sco37 - and right there is a small 'cosmic link' from 1971 Atlantis to the 2017 Inaugural Moon (@9Sco21) with Luna describing Scorpionic Tr*mp supporters on January 20, 2017 and going forward. As you know, many Scorpio types try to control everyone around them when it's actually themselves that need to be brought under control. (Consider 1/6 and subsequent arrests).

Additionally, it seems descriptive to me that transit Uranus (the zealous anarchist of chaos!) in Taurus has been opposing 2017 Inaugural Moon off and on of late, creating disruption, erratic behavior, domestic upheaval, and emotional turmoil (for and from Tr*mp supporters). Emotionally, 'drama queen' Tr*mp has been affected, too, particularly in relation to his inaugural 'status' (which expired - no, plummeted - on January 20, 2021!). Plus, we know that Tr*mp's 'guiding planet' of chaos and disruption is his 10th house Uranus in Mercurial Gemini.

Now there's another small factor about the 'noon' chart of the Powell Memo that seems appropriate to societal conditions, then and now: that Cupido, a cosmic representative of Corporatism, The Family, The Global Syndicate (which includes Organized Crime/mobsterism, foreign and domestic), and various Networks in royal Leo sits atop the 1971 'Memo' horoscope at The Goal or Aspiration Point. For as you know, Lewis Powell sent a letter ('memo' as it's called) detailing how Republicans could take complete control of America via corporations. And as things have turned out, most US politicians are bought and paid for by various corporations and CEOs with large amounts of industry lobbyists cheering on the demise of our Republic as they make their profits. Meanwhile, the US Congress keeps laws in place that make it all possible - to make it all possible.

Later on, nominated by Richard 'The Crook' Nixon, Lewis Powell was gifted a seat on the SCOTUS bench for his efforts (all of which are not mentioned here) and served from January 7, 1972 to June 26, 1987. Justice Powell was born in Suffolk, Virginia on September 19, 1907 and died August 25, 1998, his work on Earth undermining his country done.

Horoscopes: Jupiter Stations in June and October 2021

Jupiter in 2021 and 'The Big Bear' in the Room

by Jude Cowell

Monday July 5, 2021: Below are dual DC Horoscopes of transit Jupiter's two stations this year: Rx (retrograde) on June 20th @2Pis11 and Direct on October 18th @22AQ19. In this post I'm relating the Great Benefic to his role as 'the General' although you know that mundane Jupiter can wear many hats and play multiple roles, even as 'the thespian', 'the politician', 'the banker', 'the CEO', 'the broadcaster', 'the promoter', and 'the guru'. But for the purpose of this particular planetary 'change of direction' (seemingly!), I've penned on a particular Sabian Symbol for Jupiter the General's rounded-up degree (23AQ) due mainly to President Biden's announced withdrawal (Rx) in April 2021 of US troops from Afghanistan expected to be completed by September 11, 2021. This roughly follows the cosmic calendar of Jupiter the General so it will be interesting to observe whether events "on the ground" occur as scheduled (by September 11, 2021) or follow more closely Jupiter's cosmic schedule - As Above, So Below.

Yet we should also note that transit Jupiter won't reach and surpass his Shadow Degree (of 2Pis11 where he retrograded in June) until January 9, 2022 (on or about) so that Jupiterian events, conditions, and people will be able to move forward more easily and with fewer delays and obstacles from there.

Although they're penned on the charts, here I'll type out for you the midpoint pictures that have stationing Jupiter as apex planet along with a few of their potential expressions - the first on June 20, 2021, the second on October 18, 2021; that Jupiter is stationing suggests an extended period of time, plus, any, all, or none may apply and can be activated by transits and progressions:

June 20th Jupiter Rx = Saturn-Neptune (illness; weakness, etc): 'egoism; narrow-mindedness; depression' (sometimes expansive Jupiter can 'grease the slippery slope'); 'sensitivity; lung or liver disease' (R. Ebertin). From N. Tyl add: 'very upset with the ways of the world; losing the will to fight'. And M. Munkasey adds, 'deceptive practices concealed by religious ceremonies or implications'.

October 18th Jupiter = Neptune-Pluto (organized crime; the supernatural): 'sectarians; peace-lovers; a high degree of perception' (R. Ebertin). Tyl adds. 'in love with life; possible religiousness; "Thank God"; feeling at one with the way things should be'. Munkasey adds, 'social or political pressures; increased need to find a better way to spend your life' (and a better job?); 'expanded desires to enjoy a better future; improving your mental state but only by neglecting others'.

Well, there you have it, sort of a spot-check on Jupiter's 2021 stations and his path on into early 2022! For more information on Jupiter in relation to the United States of America, and for tracking purposes, you may wish to consult the Horoscopes of US Jupiter Returns for 2013 (current!) and 2025 (upcoming!).

July 3, 2021 Jupiterian Trump's Grievance Rally

Thursday July 1 2021: On Saturday July 3rd (one assumes in the evening) Trump expects to hold what I'm calling one of his 'Grievance' rallies and this time the event is set for Sarasota, Florida. However, the cosmic weather on Saturday isn't as grand for him as he would like. For certain transits are ongoing such as transit Saturn Rx opposing natal Pluto (which conjuncts his Mars-Saturn midpoint) suggesting challenges to authority and conflicts over power. And with his Mars-Saturn midpoint, the 'death axis' duo, under the influence of more Saturnian rays, there are potentials for 'deficiencies in planning due to an incomplete review of plans, and/or a 'loss of momentum from a lack of drive'. Also note that 'prudence and caution are disregarded as pressure is brought for completing stalled work' (Munkasey). Of course, have prudence and caution ever been part of his impulsive behavior? Hard to say.

Also denoting conflict and embattlement is the transit of Pluto opposing his natal Venus in Cancer which reflects Trump's slowly building legal problems and possible bankruptcy, plus, issues of jealousy, manipulation, and loss of control are on his mind with his insecurities quite obviously shown. At 8:00 pm, the shade-throwing Neptune-MC midpoint rises along with potentials for 'living in a world of illusion and unreality; acting and pretending; taking the wrong path in life; pursuit of wrong objectives' and 'uncertainty or insecurity' (R. Ebertin). We may expect the grudges he loves to hold to be on full display. Will bored audience members walk out at some point? Well, at 8:00 pm, Capricorn rises making karmic Saturn the chart-ruler - and Saturn Rx, opposing his natal Pluto as noted, makes no applying aspects in the horoscope. Perhaps that's his aura of authority and control "going nowhere" - or impressing few listeners!

As for orating planet Mercury, it will bring us Trump's typical (translation: tiresome) messages that always tend toward dishonesty (in duplicitous Gemini). And Trump's natal 10th house North Node @20Gem48 of public contact will rendezvous with July 3rd's changeable Mercury to hear whatever he has to say, same old grievances and all. (Better them than moi!). This transit of Mercury wedges the messenger between his natal Sun-Uranus so a midpoint picture forms that suggests 'sudden reforms and/or making arrangements' as he works at projecting his 'unique' personality, and discusses with others how to achieve freedom (it's almost July 4th!) from his anxieties and concerns - or from the indictments and possible subpoenas that have his disgraced name upon them.

So pardon me for asking, but can a handy escape hatch be far away from his bone-spurred tootsies? Well, please note, dear reader, that yours truly is suffering from a serious case of Trump Fatigue as are a majority of people these days, and I do get the cranky heebie jeebies just typing his name. Mea culpa.

Even so, I am compelled to mention one more cosmic factor undergirding his July 3rd rally of belly-aching and inflated dreams and it relates to the wide-girthed Jupiterian Trump 'the orator' and 'broadcaster': transit Jupiter Rx @1Pis53 (in 2nd house of Money and Earning Ability: are funds drying up in spite of all his fraudulent schemes?). Plus, as you know, mundane Jupiter also represents politicians, corporatists, and religious figures and you may have noticed that of late, Jupiter has been unaspected, therefore, detached from the rest of the planetary energies and influences. This presents a cosmic picture of a loner who's been living an 'ivory tower' existence, and shows his judgment to be undeveloped or flawed. Buoyancy may be noticeably lacking in his manner although Trump may exhibit a spurtlike enthusiasm that quickly fades. Feeling weighted down by life is typical with an unaspected Jupiter and most folks, if they pay attention to this rally, will recognize his usual disconnection from society's moral, ethical, and/or religious standards.

And yet, an exhuberant form of idealism and zealotry may be on display as he orates particularly concerning the realms of Jupiterian values that obviously include leanings toward materialism and worldliness, while his worsening mental remoteness may cause some of us concern.
