The Uranus/Pluto trine of 2026-2028: The future is here

artist unknown

When I wrote my forecast of the 2020s (here) I only projected out to 2025. I always meant to finish it, and now here we are, in the future timeline. The conjunction from Jupiter to Saturn in Aquarius kickstarted the Age of Air, a 200-year cycle of innovation and decentralization. Pluto entering Aquarius in 2023 locked us firmly into the air element and a burst of revolutionary breakthroughs. Under the trine from Uranus to Pluto this brand new future fully unfolds, and it will be […]

The meaning of Chiron in Taurus: 2026 to 2033

artist link

Chiron is like a traveling healer, migrating through the signs and revealing where we are carrying soul wounds that need to be healed before we can evolve. Chiron has been in Aries for the past eight years or so, revealing soul wounds around identity and personal agency. Now Chiron moves into Taurus where it will spend about seven years teaching us about self-worth and abundance. In Aries we discover our identity, but in Taurus we become embodied, and this will be a theme over the […]

The meaning of Jupiter in Leo 2026-2027

artist link

Jupiter is the biggest planet in our natural solar system, and it radiates more energy than any other planet except for the Sun. Mythological Jupiter was the King of the Gods. With these bigger than life qualities, Jupiter’s role is to expand our sense of what is possible in our ordinary lives by removing fears and limitations and instilling faith and trust in the Universe. Jupiter is associated with the mental constructs that we develop which give our life a sense of meaning, […]

Memorial Day Musings and 2026 U.S. astrology update

A portion of this article was posted in 2019. Memorial Day in the U.S. is a time to celebrate the fallen heroes who died to keep us free. In World War II American soldiers proudly served in a military which liberated Europe from the stranglehold of the Nazis. In those days the U.S. was a beacon for freedom in a world torn apart by war.

Since World War II, the righteousness of American involvement has not been so clear, and it can be argued that little has been accomplished despite […]

The astrology of Gisele Pélicot, featuring Black Moon Lilith

art source

In a time before a war in Iran took the tales of a global Epstein conspiracy out of the news, the trial of the drugged rapes of Gisele Pélicot by her husband and his accomplices shocked the world. Her bravery in speaking out and making herself heard has inspired women everywhere to leave behind the shame of abuse in the campaign against sexual violence.

As an astrologer, the dark turn that this campaign has taken interests me. Back in 2018 the Me Too movement exposed the harassment that many women […]

The astrology of Pete Hegseth: A portrait in fragile masculinity

Embed from Getty Images

In posts about political figures I try to avoid bias and let the astrology speak for itself. I’m a person with strong opinions though, and some may leak through. 

Sometimes the most aggressive people are the most insecure, utilizing aggressive behaviors to feel more confident and give them a sense of control. We are in a time right now where gender roles are being realigned, and it’s only been 50 years since women have been allowed to have their own credit card without the husband’s permission. Some men are having a difficult time adjusting.

Background

Pete Hegseth, the head of the Department […]

War in Iran and the astrology of the U.S. in 2026

still true after 60 years

I think we can all agree that things are really crazy right now in the United States, and that sets off a domino effect around the world. The U.S. government has a bad habit of getting involved in other countries’ business in the name of “democracy” and that is very evident right now. In addition we are under the helm of an erratic president (more on him later in the post) at a time of major astrological shifts. A new era is dawning.

The Macro effect

For those of […]

Neptune re-enters Aries and the world is on fire

Sorry to be dramatic, but this was a headline I saw recently and it seemed appropriate. Neptune hasn’t yet re-entered Aries, but already the fog (Neptune) of action and reaction has stepped up in intensity. In the past few weeks, the U.S. has invaded Venezuela and taken over its oil industry (oil itself is ruled by Neptune); protests in Iran have resulted in a crackdown and complete internet black-out, with thousands of protestors supposedly killed; wildfires are spreading out of control in Patagonia and Australia … and we’re not even really […]

Saturn/Neptune and the Walk for Peace

On October 25, 2025, a group of Buddhist monks from Fort Worth Texas left their home on a walk for peace to spread the Light of Dhamma, the path to enlightenment, to Washington D.C. I only recently became aware of this when Facebook postings started to appear, announcing the visit of the monks to my home county.

Led by the loyal peace dog Aloka, the monks have walked through towns and cities across the southern U.S. and the response has been incredible. It turns out that the simple message of peace and spiritual […]

The Saturn/Neptune conjunction: Reimagining the future

artist link

Saturn and Neptune will align on February 20, 2026, a planetary combination which has been building since both planets entered Aries in the spring of 2025.

Saturn and Neptune are two different archetypes and serve two different purposes. As one of the visible planets, Saturn operates on an individual level and represents the need for the human life to achieve something meaningful. In order to accomplish this we are often given tests and hurdles to jump over before we can reach the goal. As an outer planet, sometimes […]
