        Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg has had dinner with US President-elect Donald Trump at the Republican's Mar-a-Lago estate, the tech giant has confirmed. Multiple outlets spotted Zuckerberg, who controls Facebook, WhatsApp and Instagram, at Trump’s Florida resort, the headquarters of the incoming administration. A Meta spokesperson acknowledged that Zuckerberg and the president-elect had dinner together on Wednesday.  https://www.rt.com/news/608358-meta-zuckerberg-trump-dinner/       In a previous post Why Did Zuckerberg Choose Now To Confess? [1], I wrote:   In his August 26 letter to Congressional investigators, Zuckerbeg flat-out said what everyone else has been saying for years now. Facebook was pressured to censor information that was uncomfortable for the Biden administration.   The current primary direction (Van Dam) is : Directed Saturn [0le20] square MC [0ta20] (exact 21 April 24)...triggered by Pluto transit [0aq20] ...

        In the three cases listed, hopefully readers can detect how Uranus is bringing about massive changes.   CASE I   In the continuation of well-established trend observed across Western democracies, yet another populist, nationalist, right-wing candidate has posted an election result that far exceeded what polls indicated he was capable of. The latest upset took place in Romania on Sunday, and it has positioned a NATO critic and Ukraine war skeptic to potentially take over the country's presidency.   https://www.zerohedge.com/geopolitical/another-nationalist-upset-right-wing-nato-critic-wins-first-round-romanian-election     As astrologers we need to use hindsight as a learning tool to better understand how planets function. In this post we shall see how the Uranus Full Moon of Nov. 15 which fell in the 10 th house (leadership) and square the horizon provided the energy for a change of leadership.

  While air cooling is always part of the cooling solution, modern fighters cram so much heat-producing electronics into a relatively small space that air cooling alone is insufficient. Various types of liquid cooling are necessary, especially for power-hungry radars. This is particularly true of the F-35, which is advertised as a flying supercomputer crammed full of heat-producing computers, communications, and avionics equipment. When it comes to heat production, its powerful AN/APG-81 AESA radar leads the way. The bottom line is that it takes a whole bunch of electronics to produce a whole bunch of heat to give the F-35 its much-touted capabilities and make it the world’s preeminent fighter.   https://www.zerohedge.com/military/f-35s-cooling-crisis-design-flaws-fuel-2-trillion-dilemma-pentagon   A previous post entitled “The horoscope of the F-35 Stealth Fighter” [1] discusses the problems associated with the aircraft.

  To the magus, there exists no accidental happening…everything is established solidly by that law which the wise man discerns in happenings that appear accidental to the profane. The curve observed in the flight of birds, the barking of a dog, the shape of a cloud, are occult manifestations of that omnipresent, coordinator, the source of unity and harmony - Karl Seligmann   A massive afternoon deluge on Nov 22 triggered two flash floods and numerous flood risk warnings across the island in one of Singapore's heaviest downpours in 40 years. Record rainfall fell in the northern part of Singapore, with two flash floods in Yishun and Potong Pasir that eased within 10 minutes, said national water agency PUB. In a Facebook post, PUB said 127.7mm of rain was recorded between 2.15pm and 4.50pm in northern Singapore, which is more than half the average monthly rainfall in November.   https://www.sott.net/article/496246-Second-recent-deluge-triggers-flash-floods-amid-record-rai...

  From wrong to wrong the exasperated spirit Proceeds, unless restored by that refining fire   - T. S. Eliot's Little Gidding   AN UNEXPECTED THUNDERSTORM     The situation in Ukraine is deteriorating rapidly.. those who were previously tasked with maintaining the country’s military infrastructure, such as Ukrspecexport’s and other key defense companies’ workers, are being called to serve on the front lines. ...The impact of this situation is really deep. Not only has Ukraine lost the ability to maintain its combat systems, but it is also now forced to call up its best technicians and engineers to serve in the trenches, rather than maintaining what is still functioning in its defense industrial base.

  A seven-year battle between the EPA and the public interest regarding the fluoridation of public drinking water has finally concluded. This is an excellent result by Siri & Glimstad partner Michael Connett in securing a court order (on September 24, 2024) against the EPA.  https://www.sott.net/article/495741-Fluoride-finally-declared-an-Unreasonable-Risk   In mundane astrology, the cardinal ingresses of the Sun (entry into the four cardinal signs/ constellations, i.e. 00 deg of Aries, Cancer, Libra, and Capricorn ) have a traditional reputation as important mundane events. Just two days before the court order, on September 22, the Sun entered Libra. A chart for the event drawn for San Francisco where U.S. District Court Judge Edward Chen passed the order, has Saturn in Pisces placed very significantly on the descendant.   Pisces a water sign ruled by Neptune - the planet of no boundaries - is often symbolized as the ocean with its inherent sense of li...

Battle between Centaurs and Lapiths   In a move straight out of Louis "After me, the flood" XV, the outgoing BIden admin, in a seemingly desperate move to destabilize the global geopolitical picture, has authorized the lifting of some restrictions on Ukraine’s use of western-made weapons to strike military targets inside Russia, according to reports from Bloomberg and the AP. The approval represents a major U.S. policy shift and comes as the deep state-supported, dementia-ridden puppet Joe Biden is about to leave office and incoming President-elect Donald Trump has said he would bring about a swift end to the war and has expressed skepticism over continued support by the United States. Nov.18 https://www.zerohedge.com/markets/major-policy-shift-biden-authorizes-ukraines-use-us-missiles-hit-targets-inside-russia   Just two charts can explain Biden’s desperate attempt to start World War III before leaving office.

  A LARGE  WELL-KEPT PUBLIC PARK Putin Crushes Scholz Tense Call, No Concessions https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=333hmG7FFto   The Full Moon of Nov 15-16 aligns with the meridian at Moscow implying that it is especially significant for the place. It is no coincidence that the Full Moon occurs just as Pluto prepares to leave Capricorn for good on Nov. 20.The exposure of systemic toxicity, degradation and deceit was one thing Pluto in Capricorn exposed. With the Full Moon conjunct Uranus and trine Pluto, we are close to crossing a threshold into a radically different astrological atmosphere that will have the quality of a new era of peace and co-operation after the period of the Uranus-Pluto square.   Using a 10 deg. orb, Richard Tarnas states that the Uranus-Pluto square was active from 2007-2020 and with a 1 deg alignment between 2012-2015. The square alignment indicated a breakdown in our largest institutions (Capricorn) following an overplaying of their power ...

  Medusa and the birth of Pegasus The news of Trump’s election last week has caused most European elites to scramble like scared children on hearing “boo!”. European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen and French President Emmanuel Macron are consoling themselves by urging Europe to “come together” in the wake of Trump’s stunning election victory. The collapse of Germany’s coalition government of Chancellor Olaf Scholz is an early casualty of the Trump impact.   https://strategic-culture.su/news/2024/11/12/european-lackeys-in-panic-mode-as-trump-signals-detente-with-russia/       In a previous post on the European Union Von der Leyen Wins [1], I wrote:   Uranus transits conjunct the EU Moon [24ta] from Jun 1, 2024 to April 1, 2025 stationing at [23ta] on Jan 30, 2025 is likely to be very disruptive.

    EROS AND PSYCHE The tale of Eros and Psyche stands as a celebrated emblem of love within Greek mythology, weaving a narrative that transcends the ages. The story centers on the bond between Eros, the Greek god of love often identified by his Roman counterpart Cupid, and the mortal princess Psyche, whose name symbolizes the soul. Their saga, replete with trials and heartache, ultimately exemplifies the transformative power of love. It serves as a metaphor for the human condition, exploring themes of trust, betrayal, and redemption. The myth of Eros and Psyche explores the transformative power of love through trials and redemption.  [1]  The November New Moon [9sc35] has taken place in the zodiac sign of Scorpio the polar opposite of Taurus, the sign of purely physiological and procreative mating. To the Taurean mating urge corresponds,  another urge, which is Scorpio's essential characteristic. It represents, not the procreative sex of late adolescence whi...

    Germany’s ‘traffic-light’ coalition has collapsed, leaving Olaf Scholz at the helm of a minority government consisting solely of his Social Democratic Party (SPD) and the Greens. This follows the Chancellor's dismissal of Free Democratic Party (FDP) leader Christian Lindner from the position of Finance Minister. After failed crisis talks on Wednesday night, the FDP's parliamentary group leader, Christian Durr, announced that the party is withdrawing all its ministers from Scholz's government, formally ending the three-party coalition. Nov. 6   https://www.rt.com/news/607258-scholz-government-vote-of-confidence/       In a previous post[1] on Germany’s chart, I had mentioned that the current major solar direction was “directed Sun conjunct Pluto”. With Pluto (radical changes) square the MC (government) in the radix now activated, we have the collapse of the German government. The “minute hand” of the cosmic clock triggering the major direction is ...

        The Forbidden Law That the Awakened Dare Not Break: Jung https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qC1-EKdRJRg Stop helping others https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aRhL7bUdfSE    As a society we admire those who live for others, but their dedication might be hiding a thirst for power, a need to feel indispensable, or an impulse to do even more in order to feel better about themselves. In this post we examine the horoscope of Carl Jung to understand why he asks that we stop helping others.   Carl Jung gave a series of lectures at Fordham University from September 9–28, 1912. The lectures were a turning point in the history of psychoanalysis, and set the stage for Jung's future work. Two significant events were taking place at this time. (a) In this period Uranus was transiting over Jung’s Ascendant [1aq] completing a T-square with radix Neptune [3ta] - Sun [3le].  (b) Jung’s lunar return chart for September 1912 at New York (location of Fo...

Myths and stories linked to the stars that form the backdrop to elements of the charts can be woven together providing clues to understanding the news.   Presented here is ...

This last week has been wild. After a comedian told a joke last weekend at the Madison Square Garden Trump rally over Puerto Rico being an 'island of garbage,' the left seized and pounced - trying for days to smear Trump with fake pearl clutching over the joke.  And just when they thought they had him, old man Biden went and called 80 million Americans who support Donald Trump 'garbage' - sparking an immediate scramble to lie and downplay what the president actually said. https://www.zerohedge.com/political/msm-melts-down-over-trump-garbage-truck-stunt   No matter how hard we try we cannot get away from the challenges thrown up by our horoscopes. Here is Biden’s solar return chart (precession corrected) progressed to Oct 30, the day he made the controversial remark. Notice the powerful Grand Cross straddling the MC with Saturn in Pisces on the IC.   Pisces as the last sign of the zodiac has often been likened to a garbage bin and by association to garbage.
