  The United States is about to experience a resurgence in nuclear energy. The federal government is expected to continue restarting shuttered nuclear power plants in the coming years to meet the increasing demand for clean, dependable energy essential for powering the economy of tommorrow.   In March,(27 March) Shah's office approved a loan to Holtec International Corp. to reopen the Palisades nuclear plant in Michigan. This was a historical shift, and it was the first nuclear power plant to be reopened in the US, setting a precedent for atomic energy to make a triumphal comeback. https://www.zerohedge.com/commodities/lot-shuttered-nuclear-power-plants-could-be-turned-back-says-fed-energy-official       National charts are a treasure house of information. When properly studied, transits, solar returns etc can provide startling information. Presented here is the current Sibly solar return progressed to March 27, the date mentioned in the news.

To understand how their energies are focused at any place of interest astrologers routinely draw charts of monthly lunations. The Full Moon of April 23 is placed very significantly on the horizon at Washington DC influencing events in that place. It is the lord of the 9 th house which rules law courts so that it is not surprising that the Supreme Court is in the news.   The Full Moon is in its detriment in Scorpio amid stars of the Centaur often call

    Democratic Congressman Adam Schiff’s luggage was stolen out of his parked car in a downtown San Francisco parking garage on Thursday (April 25). He later attended speaking event and dinner in a shirt and hiking vest.   https://www.zerohedge.com/political/adam-schiff-robbed-san-francisco   Many events can be explained by what astrologers call the station point. This term refers to the period when a planet slows down and stands relatively still before changing directions, and either starts going backward ("retrograde") or forward ("direct"). The incident reported in the news took place in San Francisco, CA on April 25 when Mercury stationed to go direct. A chart for the station at San Francisco has Mercury square the meridian and the TNPs Hades-Kronos implying that the station was significant for the place.   Astro-Databank provides an accurate horoscope for Adam Schiff [1]. Notice that he has transit Kronos-Hades on his Ascendant [13cn] opposite Saturn [16

There have been emerging reports Friday that Israeli Minister of National Security Itamar Ben Gvir has been hospitalized after a serious car accident.  Regional media outlet The Cradle writes that "Israeli Minister of National Security Itamar Ben Gvir has been hospitalized after his car overturned in Ramla while leaving the scene of a stabbing attack." https://www.zerohedge.com/geopolitical/israels-controversial-national-security-minister-ben-gvir-serious-car-accident   In a previous post[1] I wrote:   Israel’s radix Sun [23ta40] is square radix Mars [28le18] in itself a violent, aggressive and bull-headed combination.

  The slave trade in Ukraine has become one of the most serious problems of our time. Since the 2014 coup d’état, Kiev has been a key player in modern slavery, particularly for human trafficking and sexual exploitation networks. The political and social instability that has affected the country since the Western-led regime change operation is one of the main factors for the growth of such human rights violations. A recent investigative report [1] published by the Foundation to Battle Injustice showed in details the seriousness of the slave trade in Ukraine. https://tinyurl.com/ytus3e52   The problem mentioned in the news report can be seen in Ukraine’s national chart.   First House The common people or general state of the nation. The country and its inhabitants as a whole.   In Ukraine’s chart Saturn [1aq] is in the first house, with Pluto currently transit over it.

  A panel of judges on the Fifth District of Texas Court of Appeals in Dallas ruled Wednesday that the state bar’s arguments lacked merit and evidence. They found that state bar prosecutors “employed a ’scattershot' approach to the case” that had alleged Ms. Powell did not have a reasonable basis to file lawsuits that challenged the 2020 election’s outcome in battleground states. https://tinyurl.com/nent7w6n       Sidney Powell was born May 1, 1955 in Durham, North Carolina.

  Solar Eclipses in China: Four legged Dragon eating the Sun In an ancient Maya temple-pyramid in Guatemala, archaeologists recently discovered the scorched bones of at least four adults who were likely members of a royal lineage. The burning signaled a deliberate and potentially public desecration of their remains, according to new research. April 18 https://tinyurl.com/5a3s9r3p   While eclipses effect the entire world, they are especially significant in places where they fall on the angles. In astrology, the chaos of a solar eclipse is represented by the image of a dragon symbolizing the transiting lunar nodes devouring the Sun (King). It is from this symbolization that solar eclipses have been linked to the death and passing away of a ruler and the era linked to him. Symbolically eclipses also bring the invisible into visibility while the light of our conscious awareness must face whatever is residing in the darkness of our unconscious. There is a great unraveling as old narrati

   The world just narrowly avoided witnessing a major regional war explode with Thursday night's Israeli 'limited' retaliation on the Islamic Republic. This event is easily understood through the lens of  Israel’s April lunar return chart.

    Greek mythology: Paris kidnaps Helen   Stunning artworks have been uncovered in a new excavation at Pompeii, the ancient Roman city buried in an eruption from Mount Vesuvius in AD79. Archaeologists say the frescos are among the finest to be found in the ruins of the ancient site. April 11 https://www.sott.net/article/490524-Pompeii-Breathtaking-new-paintings-found-at-ancient-city     It may be difficult for most of us to believe that major discoveries like this one take place when relevant planetary configurations occur. Presented here is the chart for the Mars-Saturn conjunction on April 10 at the co-ordinates of Pompei. We immediately notice that the alignment takes place very significantly on the 4 th house cusp (IC).   Among other things, the 4 th house rules “roots and history” of the land as well as “hidden treasure and the treasures of the earth” [1]   Next we look at the stars that form the backdrop to Mars-Saturn-IC which Diana Rosenberg links to “unusually powerf

   Iran launched a massive aerial attack on Israel,on April 14, two weeks after a deadly strike on its consulate in Syria. Its reaction to the bombing of its consulate in Damascus was very measured, well thought-out and pulled off with a certain sobriety which will not be matched by Israel and the U.S. Tehran did not want to kill civilians but simply send a message that Israel crossed a line and if it does this again, then there will be more attacks from Iran, perhaps intercontinental missiles with deeper impact than cheap drones. But the move by Tehran was still a shock to many western experts and no doubt the Netanyahu cabal as well, as it busted the myth that Iran would not have the courage to bomb directly Israel.   In this post we shall see how Iran reacted well to the challenge presented by its stars. Presented here is Iran’s current solar return chart (precession corrected). Notice a powerful Grand Cross, containing a Mars-Nodal axis T-square, placed very significantly on t

It was Carter who suggested that if the sidereal zodiac were valid, maps for the entry of the Sun into the constellations of Aries,Cancer,Libra and Capricorn would be of importance.   The Sun moved into sidereal Aries on April 14. A map for the Sun’s ingress into the Aries constellation drawn for Tel-Aviv is shown here. As always planets on the angles are of primary importance. We can see that a Mars-Saturn conjunction is on the 7 th cusp. This is a combination that traditional

  On April 1, Israel bombed and ultimately destroyed the Iranian consulate annex building situated next to the Iranian Embassy in Damascus, Syria. The strike, which killed seven military officials, was widely condemned by the international community as a clear violation of Syria’s sovereignty, as well as of the Vienna Convention and the established norms of international relations....It is a bold gambit for the government of Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu to have resorted to such an escalation. It begs the question, why did Israel do this? https://www.rt.com/news/595700-israel-bomb-iran-consulate-damascus/         In Netanyahu’s chart [1] Jupiter [17ta] has been squaring his radix Pluto[17le]. How might the combination manifest on the personal level? Jupiter is boundless optimism and self-confidence. But the psychological attitude that allows us to create a brighter future can also turn us into fools. Jupiter’s energy always feels good but whether it will bring us success depe

  Israel has told Hamas that it must release 40 living hostages as part of a proposed truce agreement, Israeli television networks report.  https://www.timesofisrael.com/liveblog-april-10-2024/       Events in Israel are facing the challenge set up by the upcoming Mars-Saturn conjunction on April 11. Why? Well because the conjunction makes a square aspect to the horizon axis at Cairo where the talks with Hamas are being held.   In his post on the solar eclipse, Gray Crawford discusses the Mars-Saturn and Jupiter-Uranus conjunctions.   Through welding the burning heat of Mars to the disciplined, determined focus of Saturn. The inflamed aggressiveness of Mars can become tempered by the restraint of Saturn, making it possible to direct the boldness of Mars with serious thought and pragmatic strategy. Even when we have a clear place to direct Mars and Saturn, however, they do not facilitate achieving results quickly. The combination of Mars and Saturn corresponds with working hard

  Waking from a Dream Painting by Nancy Fruchtman  The Vibe Shift I’m talking about is the speaking of previously unspeakable truths, the noticing of previously suppressed facts. I’m talking about the give you feel when the walls of Propaganda and Bureaucracy start to move as you push; the very visible dust kicked up in the air as Experts and Fact Checkers scramble to hold on to decaying institutions; the cautious but electric rush of energy when dictatorial edifices designed to stifle innovation, enterprise, and thought are exposed or toppled.   Fundamentally, the Vibe Shift is a return to—a championing of—Reality, a rejection of the bureaucratic, the cowardly, the guilt-driven; a return to greatness, courage, and joyous ambition...  The Vibe Shift is spurning the fake and therapeutic and reclaiming the authentic and concrete.   https://pliego.substack.com/p/vibe-shift   Many astrologers think they create a complete progressed horoscope by calculating the secondary positions of th

  This week’s brouhaha in Brussels saw the Foreign Ministers of NATO emerge from their holes in the ground looking for food now that things are finally warming up for Spring. And they had a message for us: more for them and less for us. They were ready to steal the food from our mouths, our children from our homes, to give Ukraine the aid it needs to beat Russia in a war only they seem to want.They would strangle the political process at home to make this so. They would betray their basic roles as diplomats, speaking with forked tongues, to confound the conditions for dialogue with Russia and end the fighting.

  A 4.8 magnitude earthquake recorded in New Jersey that shook residents in surrounding states and New York City on Friday morning was one of the strongest in state history.  The temblor was reported about 5 miles north of Whitehouse Station, New Jersey, at about 10:23 a.m. Friday, according to the United States Geological Survey. The epicenter was about 45 miles from New York City, where residents reported shaking furniture and floors. https://tinyurl.com/mr23mj4b   An earthquake is often linked to an eclipse which can then serve as a primary cause. A secondary cause can be the transits at the exact time of the eclipse.   On the morning of April 5, the Sun[16ar17] had just reached a conjunction to the true North Node[15ar37] while the Moon [1pi57] significantly placed on the MC was separating from its waning crescent phase.   The conjunction of the Sun with the Nodes is a phenomenon known as Moon Wobble.   Moon Wobbles were discovered in the 1930's, when research by astro

    On Wednesday a new bombshell has emerged which appears to confirm brazen 'deep state' interference in Khan's legal cases. The Guardian reports:   Claims by senior Pakistani judges that the intelligence agencies put pressure on them in cases involving the former prime minister Imran Khan have reached the country’s supreme court, following the publication of an unprecedented letter that has created a storm in Pakistan.   The letter from the six high court judges alleged the abduction of family members, torture, installation of cameras in their bedrooms and threats from the powerful Inter-Services Intelligence agency (ISI). In one case the judges said they were forced to hear an appeal against Khan even after the majority of judges had decided it was not maintainable.   https://www.zerohedge.com/geopolitical/wake-khans-14-year-sentence-being-overturned-pakistani-judges-say-intel-operatives     Eclipses support humankind’s evolutionary progression in consciousness.
