SS Act's Eclipse repeats Sept 2025

by Jude Cowell, partisan for the common good

Threatened since the day the bill was signed, the Social Security Act of 1935, and the money We the People have paid into the fund through the decades via taxes, are now at risk more than ever before as Republicans seem to have accomplished their long-term goal to beggar and deplete our nation, people, and the US economy. Call this what you wish, but I call it a heist by a gang of robbers. Their cruelty and sadism are additional features.

Now the Social Security Act that set up the popular social safety net program (Saturn-Neptune - soon to conjunct at Aries Point in February 2026) was signed by President Franklin Delano Roosevelt on August 14, 1935 under the auspices of a 9 New South Solar Eclipse which had perfected a couple of weeks earlier on July 30, 1935 @6Leo17 - conjunct America's 1776 North Node showing that karmic progress was being made. And as we both know, progress is exactly what regressive Republicans are determined to stifle in America - leading to a backward society and to more money for their thieving! Why, even the gold in Fort Knox is under threat now for like the Naz*s of old, gold is excellent for funding whatever Reich needs financing. Even if it's a "unified Reich" as a a certain someone called it, then pretended he didn't.

And so as a reminder, from his 1937 Inauguration Address here's FDR's famous, "the test of our progress": "The test of our progress is not whether we add more to the abundance of those who have much; it is whether we provide enough for those who have too little." But of course, adding to the abundance of those who have much is what Mump, Tusk, and the rest of the plutocrats are all about - no matter who suffers.

Two Horoscopes, One Saros Series: 9 New South; both charts set for Washington DC:

The main point is that during this major assault on our SS benefits, the themes of the 1935 Eclipse will be spotlighted once again by the 9 New South Eclipse of September 21, 2025 @29Vir05 - basically an Autumn Equinox Eclipse except that the Sun hasn't quite reached 00Lib00:00. For comparison, view a dual image of the Autumn Equinox 2025 chart and the 9 New South Eclipse chart of 2025 here.

9 New South Themes:

Bringing to the surface long-term worries about loved ones, health, or issues to do with paperwork or communications; this could manifest as a worrying piece of news about a loved one or responsibilities with paperwork coming home to roost; any news will have a sense of fatedness or destiny attached (paraphrasing B. Brady, Predictive Astrology #ad).

That Turncoat Lindsey Graham

by Jude Cowell, partisan for the common good, Daughter of the American Revolution

Perhaps you've read an account of Turncoat Lindsey Graham speaking out after yesterday's embarrassing performance in the White House by Tr*mp and Vanc* as they ambushed Ukraine's top war hero, President Volodymyr Zelenskyy - in order to impress their overlord, Vladimir Put*n who undoubtedly was watching their performance with bemused interest.

In fact, the world was watching the emotionally volatile performance that starkly made clear the Tr*mp team's traitorous preference for the "Axis countries" including "Big Bear" Russia.

Recommended: Zelensky has laid bare the ugly truth about Tr*mp and Vanc*.

And as you know, even Brian Glenn, the reporter boyfriend of Georgia's M.T-Greene (her noon natal chart shown) pushed into the scurrilous act (as instructed, one suspects) by criticizing President Zelenskyy for not wearing a suit at the meeting. Understandably, President Zelenskyy responded that he would wear a suit when the war is over.

Anyway, above is a bi-wheel of Lindsey Graham's noon natal chart (inner) with the noon White House meeting's horoscope of February 28, 2025. As you see, Senator Graham's natal Mercury in late Gemini arose at noon while it was President Zelenskyy's natal Jupiter Rx rising at noon!

And of course, Graham spoke out (Mercury) about the volatile meeting with Zelenskyy who was there concerning his country's treasure (valuable minerals) - as transactional Tr*mp styled it, to be signed away as payment for America's past support of the war.

However, it's only natural that Ukraine's war hero is protective of his country's assets and he failed to fall for the lousy deal. Valuable assets plus protection -- all very Jupiterian of him!

Then on further consideration, one might wonder if the February 28th meeting was purposefully blown up for an additional reason: by order from puppetmaster Put*n to sabotage the proceedings because he wants Ukraine's valuable minerals for himself - instead of underling Tr*mp!

President Zelenskyy to DC Feb 28, 2025?

by Jude Cowell, partisan for the common good

Perhaps you've heard that Tr*mp says Ukraine's President Zelenskyy will visit the White House to sign a minerals deal - apparently tomorrow, Friday February 28th, or so Mr. T. says. He'll be entering a dangerous environment, as perhaps you'll agree.

Well, Zelenskyy's Solar Arc Directions for tomorrow are operative whether he visits DC or not so let's take a look. A view of Volodymyr Zelenskyy's A-rated natal horoscope is available, and below, is a bi-wheel with the Ukrainian President's natal horoscope (inner) surrounded by his Solar Arc Directions (external influences within the environment) set for noon February 28, 2025 Washington DC (noon hour is arbitrarily selected):

Contacts are penned on the image with potentials added here:

SA Neptune conjunct natal Sun and Venus; SA Saturn conjunct natal Pluto, SA Descendant conjunct natal Saturn, SA Chiron conjunct natal Ascendant: threat of loss, hard, hard work, inspiration, illegality, deception, self-deception, feeling unrequited, controlling partners (Solar Arcs, Noel Tyl #ad), and a Quest of destiny (Chiron, R. Nolle #ad).

Other factors of interest include:

Natal Saturn @28Leo48 Rx conjunct royal Regulus brings exciting events such as revolts, coups, and/or a potential for the overthrow of heads of state. Then for some time now, tr Pluto has opposed Volodymyr Zelenskyy's natal Mars Rx @00Leo14 symbolizing the power struggle of the war and invasion by a major force, and the physical conflicts that he and the Ukrainian - and Russian - people have had to deal with.

In addition, dates of his current three-fer Mars Return are listed, lower left, with the third of three coming April 18, 2025, and tr Pluto in opposition @00AQ+ = the US Inaugural Sun and Pluto conjunction of January 20, 2025.

Also, look lower right corner for the 10 South Eclipse @20Leo01:58 arriving on August 12, 2026 conjunct President Zelenskyy's natal IC and suggesting that he is a role model for the public who must always act in an aboveboard manner (R. Lineman). 10 South themes include breaking out of a very negative situation where no hope can be seen to a positive space with many options; a lingering worry will suddenly clear! (paraphrasing B. Brady).

To close, here from my files is the Putin to Ukraine Horoscope of February 24, 2022 for the record:

UPDATE March 1, 2025 Recommended: An op-ed in The Independent by Simon Walters provides a clear picture of the attempted White House shake-down and pre-planned ambush of President Zelenskyy by the "Godfather President" and his sidekick Vanc* - presumably a "Godfather-in-waiting".

Saturn-Neptune: the weakening of America

by Jude Cowell, partisan for America and the common good

The current Saturn-Neptune Cycle began when they conjoined on November 13, 1989 @10Cap22, the third of the karmic planets' three conjunctions in 1989 - all in Saturn-ruled Capricorn. We know that society is under the influence of the third conjunction because the next Saturn-Neptune Conjunction is approaching and will perfect on February 20, 2026 @00Ari45, the Aries Point of World Events. That this karmic Conjunction upon the primary Cardinal Point of 00Ari00 (Summer Solstice Point of the Sun; see the Summer Solstice 2025 Horoscope) must relate to or symbolize the current take-over attempts against various governments by global authoritarian forces seems clear.

Such topics we've discussed previously; for example: Saturn-Neptune Cycles 1989 and 2026.

So today I'm publishing a dual image of our initial Saturn-Neptune Conjunction which times America's Saturn-Neptune Cycle of September 27, 1773 @18Vir42 conjunct detail-oriented Mercury @18Vir50 (lower left) along with the first of three Uranus Returns (upper right) to the 1773 Uranus position @27Tau55 - shown here because it perfects soon on May 28, 2025, and because disruptive, radical Uranus is America's totem planet of war and revolt - energy that can also be used by the uprising of the American people against the heist now in progress by a lawless man and his unelected sidekick who are dismantling, weakening, and undermining (Neptune) the US government and our Constitution (Saturn) into a state (Saturn) of disfunction (Neptune) - not a smaller government - a meaner one:

Please note that this is the 1773 conjunction of the two karmic planets prior to July 4, 1776 when, as you know, America's Saturn was (and remains) exalted in mid-Libra and Neptune was (remains) @22Vir25. Perhaps your software can find a more accurate chart for their conjunction, so do let me know if you find one. Theirs is approximately a 36-year cycle so the next conjunction came in or about 1809.

Saturn-Neptune Energies Blended

Now I'm confident that a dear reader such as yourself already knows the multiple indications and associations of the Saturn-Neptune pair of planetary energies such as weakness, poverty, undermining circumstances, social safety net programs, caution, pessimism, uncovering fraud, plus, Socialism, Communism, secret or invisible government, and more. Additionally, the Saturn-Neptune midpoint qualifies as the Illness Axis, according to Reinhold Ebertin.

Of interest to some folks is that Mr. Tr*mp was born, as we're told (10:54 am), with the Saturn-Neptune midpoint conjunct his Ascendant (physical body) indicating oppressive family circumstances and a depressing environment for the little fellow right from the start.

And so in closing, as part of my forewarned is forearmed efforts on SO'W, here are some of the potentials of Saturn-Neptune in Politics and Business, quoting from Michael Munkasey. Any, all, or none may apply to 2025 events but I suspect you'll find that many, if not all of them, closely describe current events and actors:

Thesis: Delusions among the real leadership; policies that restrict spies; misusing law officers; inefficient use of capable expert advice; mistaken religious leaders.

Antithesis: Leaders deceive about the exercise of control; deficient business practices exposed; respected persons involved in questionable practices; a leader capitulates; reliable equipment failures. (And Saturnian systems, too - jc.)

As for Events of 1773, a stand-out in what became America has to be the Boston Tea Party of December 16, 1773 - loss (Saturn) of tea and tax money for authoritarian Britain (Saturn) tossed into Boston Harbor (Neptune) by disguised perpetrators (Neptune).

Additional reading includes astro-notes concerning the highly significant Virgo Lunar Eclipse of March 14, 2025 when the US government runs out of money and may shut down unless congressional Democrats help Speaker Johnson - and the Ides of March arrives next day. Oh, and btw - the March 14th Lunar Eclipse @24Virgo happens to conjunct the 10 North Solar Eclipse of 1773 which spotlights 10 North themes of "frustration over news, communications, paperwork, and/or young people" - perhaps like meddling-in-our-private-business "tech bros"?

European Union ("Uran-Nept")

by Jude Cowell, partisan for the common good

As per a reader's request, below is the European Union Inauguration Horoscope of November 1, 1993 (N. Campion #420A):

See History of the European Union.

Was the EU formed as a signpost on the road to a "New World Order" style of World Government? Some say the United Nations was created as a model for global government. Well, at the summit in Munich a few days ago, UN Secretary-General Guterres called for a new global order. Why, even Popes in Rome have called for a new economic order in their New Year's Day messages. Did you notice?

Personally, I figured this sort of shout-out was due about now as societal problems have become massive enough - been allowed to become massive enough - for societal meddlers to grouse that, little nation-states cannot possibly solve all these huge problems - what the world needs is Global Government to solve them! Perhaps you notice that the script for this political theater is based on the Hegelian Dialect: create problems, then "solve" them the way the big boys intended to all along. And with the masses none the wiser, dumbed down as we are.

Now as for the European Union Horoscope of 1993 shown above, the Big Cosmic Deal of 1993 was the three times that Uranus and Neptune conjoined in the 18--20-degree range of Saturn-ruled Capricorn (February 2, August 20, October 24). The entity's fanatical October 24, 1993 Horoscope is the chart I tend to use as a "New World Order" Horoscope (if I must), and in 2017, transit Pluto in Capricorn - of the Underworld - lumbered along to conjunct Uranus-Neptune and humanity was cursed with this midpoint picture:

"The big picture commands a certain course of action which must be followed, very little option to do otherwise" (N. Tyl). Plus, the Sabian Symbols tell us that there's "strong-armed paternalism" and Political Power involved, timed by the first year of T r*mp regime.1.0.

So naturally you may disagree, but I believe this Plutonian instruction relates to a "NWO script" that bad faith actors are following, those who are "in it" for wealth, power, and control with everyone else mere collateral damage. In fact, this mob-like instruction qualifies as "an offer they can't refuse." Perhaps you're feeling it via the GOP's fascistic Project 2025 purge agenda as you wonder why certain politicians and others are behaving like robots under someone else's control, with secrets being held over their heads and threats being made. If you haven't felt these sinister energies by now, you likely will soon. Or sadly, your loved ones will.

Additionally, the Taurus-Scorpio energies in the chart aren't playing around either with a tough, forceful, even brutal Mars-Pluto Conjunction in fixed Scorpio (strong their own sign) opposing an isolated Moon conjunct Capulus in fixed Taurus. The planetary trio suggests potentials for publicity and daring but also contains the intimation of injuries to women (N. Tyl). Yep, for women that tracks, doesn't it?

Awakened Consciousness/Enlightenment Principles

Now astrologically, transformative Pluto took the "enlightenment" and "illumination" vibes of the Uranus-Neptune pair and changed them into the GOP's absurd anti-woke nonsense of anti-science (Uranus) vs faith (Neptune) - as if the two have to be antagonistic. Stay dumb and uneducated, the GOP tells the masses, and we'll take care of everything; meanwhile we're perpetrating the largest heist in history upon the American people as we loot the USA.

And while you-the-public are at it, be sure to blame the wrong people for our crimes and thievery so that we-the-guilty (the "Big Dogs"!) can continue denying responsibility. We've worked for years to ruin and junk up the US Legal System and the DOJ so we expect to get away free and clear!

Okay, that's all the fuss I've got for today, dear reader. It's a lot, I know, so if the EU Horoscope shown here is useful to you in some way, I'm very glad - and do pass it on if you have a chance! jc

FBI Horoscope w/ February 2025 Transits

by Jude Cowell, partisan for We the People

Remember August 2022 when the FBI "raided" Mar-a-Lago because agent orange had absconded with secret and classified documents from the White House and had them stacked up in his Florida golf resort's bathroom? And this, after months of negotiations to corral them back to Washington where they belonged because the greedy toddler pretended they were his?

Well, now it's February 2025 and Tr*mp fanatic Kash Patel (his noon horoscope shown) is about to be forced on us as Director of the FBI (destroyer, actually) so a look at Patel's natal planets (only a noon birth time for Kashyap) seems appropriate. But with only a noon chart, I demur from spending much time when an accurate birth hour is unknown for it is not my druthers, having better things to do and all.

And yet since planet Pluto orbits so slowly, I can say that Patel's natal Pluto Rx @21Lib29 seems to be the most significant contact when his chart is compared to the FBI Horoscope of 1908 with 25Lib42 rising. Plus, mundane Pluto's connections to destruction, transformation, regeneration, surveillance, subversion, Underworld crime, and death are well known so there's that.

So what I do want to show here is a bi-wheel of this morning's transits (when I signed on) surrounding the FBI Horoscope set for July 26, 1908 12:00 pm EST Washington DC. Meanwhile, if a dear reader such as yourself possesses a different FBI Horoscope, have at it and let me know how planetary contacts turn out, keeping in mind current events of a harrowing nature as our federal government and US society are dismantled and hobbled by saboteurs and looters, much to our country's foreign enemies' delight.

Now since the bi-wheel's timings are loosey goosey, chart angles are unreliable yet I'm going to close this post with something about this morning's Moon in Libra (sign of The Scales of Justice) precisely conjunct the FBI 1908 Ascendant and with Mr. Patel's Pluto in Libra rising in the 1908 chart.

And that's the midpoint picture of potentials the trio forms which suggest the extreme emotions about the misappropriation of our national resources (Moon-Pluto) that we're feeling about the damage the culprits are purposefully causing and the scandals involved -

Moon-Pluto = ASC: "A tendency to cause upsets in one's environment through one's conduct; many upsets" (R. Ebertin); "temperamental upset; tremendous self-projection within the environment" (N. Tyl); "contrasts ideals within against the reality of the world" (M. Munkasey). Does it ever!

Well, hopefully you've gotten something out of yet another of my fussy posts about Washington DC, my former city of residence. If so, please don't hesitate to share for it would be much appreciated - and a share just might inspire someone to buy me a cup of coffee to help defray expenses! jc

Some Difficult Potentials Ahead

by Jude Cowell, partisan for America

Alert: Ultra fussy post ahead. Caution is advised. Seriously.

Hopefully, mass starvation in the US is not on the draconian Project 2025 agenda although depopulation does seem to be. And they're related, yes? Well, under the influence of the 8 South Solar Eclipse of October 2, 2024 @10Libra03 (among other influences), maga voters recklessly set in motion the sabotage of our nation and the interruption of American life as we've known it. For decades, the destruction of our central federal government has been the GOP's stated goal for they crave permanent power. Ain't no mystery about it.

So here's the DC Horoscope of the 8 South Solar Eclipse of 2024 with its themes of loss, separation, sad partings, physical injury through overstrain (B. Brady). Its influence has begun to fade as 9 New North Eclipse themes take precedence around mid-March and the March 14th Lunar Eclipse in Virgo with accidents and physical difficulties again possible:

Then below is a list of some of the things maga voters said Yes to in November plus a few of the worthy items and conditions they voted against; you'll think of more, I'm certain:

They voted for American Carnage.

They voted for global fascist totalitarianism to sunset our democracy.

They voted to be deported.

They voted against women and children.

They voted against healthcare insurance.

They voted for measles, polio, and epidemics.

They voted for The Confederacy and racism.

They voted for economic hardship.

They voted against keeping their jobs.

They voted against free speech.

They voted against books and learning.

They voted for chaos not law and order.

They voted for souless plutocratic oligarchy.

They voted for slavery and feudalism.

They voted against US sovereignty.

They voted for control of the US by foreign dictators.

They voted for terrorism and murder.

They voted to Make America Grieve Again.

They voted for a madman dictator bent on revenge - and an unelected sidekick billionaire who purchased the 2024 Election for him and who acts as de facto president.

Tulsi Gabbard: Sun Aries-Moon Leo

by Jude Cowell, partisan for America, my only nag in the race

Today the US Senate confirmed Tulsi Gabbard as Director of National Intelligence by a vote of 52--48. Senator McConnell was the only Republican who did not vote to confirm her.

And so below you see a quick mock-up of two horoscopes: the 12:00 am Natal Chart of Tulsi Gabbard (lower left) along with her Prenatal Solar Eclipse ("PE") in the 19 South Saros Series (upper right) @16AQ01; note that Leone, Tutulia, American Samoa is the closest my software could come to her birth location:

The primary theme of 19 South Eclipses is lucky breaks or wins (B. Brady).

Memorably, the last 19 South Eclipse occurred on February 26, 2017 @8Pisces and was a gift from the Cosmos to whomever had won the presidency in November 2016.

Unfortunately for American democracy and the American people, that someone was you-know-who, aka, "agent orange." Expectably, we'll likely discover what color to label "agent" Gabbard. Red, perhaps? Well, she is a volatile, dramatic Sun Aries with Mercury, Venus, and Mars in Aries, too. And it's no wonder she joined the National Guard and reached the rank of Major - all that energy needed a place to express.

Plus, she served as a Congresswoman. But as of today's confirmation vote, Gabbard's Aries planets and her dramatic, volatile nature have a much larger stage to act upon - the world stage, in fact. Surely the DNI position will provide her Leo Moon, with its unending need for applause, approval, and attention, a satisfying supply - as long as her boss doesn't find himself upstaged.

Please enlarge the dual image if you wish to read my hastily scribbled study notes. Thanks!
