On why Trump walked back his Iran ultimatum

    President Trump announced a five-day delay in planned U.S. strikes on Iranian energy infrastructure, attributing it to "very good and productive conversations" over two days toward a full resolution of Middle East hostilities, with talks set to continue. Iranian state media and officials immediately denied any direct or indirect U.S. contacts, portraying the postponement as a retreat after Tehran's threats to target Gulf power plants and mine the Strait of Hormuz in retaliation, escalating tensions following Trump's 48-hour ultimatum issued March 22.   The February 17 solar eclipse [28aq49] was placed prominently on the Ascendant at Washington DC forming a tight square to Uranus (at approximately 28° Taurus.   In mundane astrology, solar eclipses conjunct angles—especially the Ascendant—often signal major shifts, surprises, or disruptions public image, or policy direction. Uranus adds themes of sudden reversals ("flip flops"), technological or abr...

On why the petrodollar is ending

        The petrodollar arrangement—often symbolized by the US-Saudi Joint Commission on Economic Cooperation—has a widely referenced "natal" moment in astrology as June 8, 1974, at 12:00 PM EDT (noon chart) in Washington, D.C., with coordinates approximately 38°53'42" N, 77°02'12" W (as shown in the Solar Fire natal chart). This aligns with the public signing and announcement of the joint statement by US Secretary of State Henry Kissinger and Saudi Prince Fahd at Blair House in Washington, D.C., on that date. This is a reasonable symbolic chart for the formal diplomatic milestone establishing economic ties, petrodollar recycling intentions, and broader cooperation—though the petrodollar system (dollar-priced oil + Saudi investments in US assets) was more incremental and informal, with key secret elements negotiated later in 1974.   The progressed Sun at 6° Leo 54' (as of the current date, March 23, 2026) reflects secondary progression (≈1° per year...

Robert Mueller dies at Mars trigger of Sep 2025 lunar eclipse

    “If you bring forth what is within you, what you bring forth will save you. If you do not bring forth what is within you, what you do not bring forth will destroy you.” ― Gospel of Thomas           Former chief of the FBI and ex-special counsel in the probe into alleged Trump-Russia ties, Robert Mueller, has passed away https://www.rt.com/news/635756-trump-russiagate-mueller-death/     The September 7, 2025, Total Lunar Eclipse (exact at approximately 15°22' Pisces, with the Moon at 15°22' Pisces opposite the Sun at 15°22' Virgo) carries significant weight in mundane astrology for the United States when cast for Washington, D.C., using equal houses.     Sun at 15° Virgo on the 10th cusp: In mundane astrology, the 10th house governs national leaders, authority figures.

Why Japan’s Overworked Population Needs Rest

        Between 2008 and 2010, photographer Pawel Jaszczuk walked through Tokyo's empty streets at night, capturing something that looked absurd but revealed a deeper truth about work, success, and pressure. https://x.com/interesting_aIl/status/2034993998801105267     The most commonly used national horoscope (mundane chart) for Japan among astrologers in mundane/political astrology is the chart for the post-World War II constitution coming into effect (May 3, 1947; 0:00; Tokyo; Japan). This marks the modern democratic Japan's "rebirth" after defeat and occupation, as the country transitioned to its current constitutional framework.   Shown above is the horoscope of Japan from Solar Fire for this data. The Capricorn Ascendant at 26°32' in Japan's chart strongly aligns with the archetype of a nation whose national identity and outward presentation emphasize discipline, structure, ambition, and a pragmatic, results-oriented approach to life.In ...

Qatar’s LNG hub on fire

              By March 19, 2026, the pattern is unmistakable. What began as a war centered on Israel, Iran, Lebanon, and the waters around the Strait of Hormuz has now spilled decisively into the infrastructure heart of the Gulf monarchies. The most firmly established Iranian strike on Gulf energy infrastructure so far is the missile attack on Qatar’s Ras Laffan industrial complex, the largest LNG hub on earth, carried out after Israel struck Iran’s South Pars gas field. https://www.rt.com/news/635540-israel-iran-chain-reaction/   The national horoscope (mundane astrology chart) for Qatar is commonly based on its independence from British protection and the formal establishment of the State of Qatar.This occurred on September 1, 1971; Time: 8:00 PM Local Time; Doha, Qatar. The Ascendant of Qatar’s chart is [2 Aries] which is close to where the current Saturn-Neptune conjunction is taking place.   Extract from The Great 2025–26 Sa...

Astrology of Saudi Arabia’s Crisis

        Saudi Arabia’s natal chart (23 Sep 1932, 06:00 UT, Riyadh; tropical, Placidus) shows Sun (≈29° Virgo to 0° Libra range, depending on exact rectification). The progressed Sun is currently activating a sequence involving Lachesis (fate, cutting the thread of a process, "in the middle of a sequence"), Moon (public emotion, the people, national mood), Makemake (leadership as protector/provider vs. manipulative old-paradigm politics; sorting worthy vs. unworthy leaders; environmental/societal abundance conditions), Siwa (interruptions from rage/anger, destructive cycles recognized, "time out" or reassessment), and Pandora (surprises once underway, "more to it than anticipated," sudden turns, new doors from crises, Eureka moments that redirect the train).   Martha Wescott’s orb-of-10° approach treats this as a unfolding process rather than pinpoint events. The progressed Sun moving through these points (roughly 2024–2027 window per the report, with ...

Iran-Israel progressed synastry

  Attached table from Solar Fire gives Iran’s directed draconic solar arc Sun’s aspects to elements of Israel’s chart (progressed synastry). Martha Wescott advises not to focus on an exact date but to try and see the process unfolding using an orb of about 10 degrees.   The primary aspect is Iran’s directed draconic solar arc Sun’s conjunction to Israel’s natal Neptune. The other elements are asteroids are “Siwa-Pandora-Atropos-Diana”   Martha Wescott provides the following interpretations.   Pandora/Siwa Crisis situations that involve Asia or the Middle East (and people from those areas) will occur, but I think there will be concern about upsets that catch people off-guard in connection with those countries too. As well, I think that expressions of anger will sometimes be "unexpected" or bring consequences for which one was unprepared.   Neptune/Siwa  Part of the PURPOSE of recent and current events and circumstances is to upend concepts...
