Donald Trump update March 2025

Please keep any comments centered around the astrology.

I have written a few posts about Trump over the last decade, and if you want to catch up on his astrological profile you might want to check out this post from September 2015 (hard to believe that was ten years ago!!).

Things are getting pretty heated and seem even more erratic than some of us expected so I thought it was time for an update.

Transiting Uranus, the planet of sudden change and radical behavior, is crossing the Midheaven, the point of public […]

The astrology of the U.S. election, November 5, 2024

INTRODUCTION:

Predicting the outcome of an election is a tempting exercise, but nearly always results in failure. In 2016 astrologers everywhere attempted to predict whether Clinton or Trump would win the November US Presidential election. You can geek out here and read the article and comments breaking down results by whether the astrologer followed the tropical or sidereal zodiac, was US-based or international etc., but the important takeaway is that of the 90 predictions collected in the article, 62.1% predicted a Clinton win and 37.9% predicted a Trump […]

2024 election musings: July Full Moon edition

The past week has brought about some stunning reversals in the unfolding drama of the U.S. political scene. I’ve moved most of my political writing to sound bytes on Twitter/X and AstroNotes on Substack but the events of this week seem like a bigger picture situation that deserve a more permanent place on the blog.

On Sunday July 21st there was a Full Moon at the 29th degree of Capricorn. This was the second Full Moon in Capricorn, something that is often called a “Blue Moon” because […]

Censorship and the dual nature of Aquarius

The idea of planetary rulership. Under the traditional rulership scheme in astrology, the Sun rules Leo, the Moon rules Cancer, and each of the other planets governs the other signs in a beautifully ordered way: Mercury rules Gemini and Virgo, Venus rules Taurus and Libra, Mars rules Aries and Scorpio, Jupiter rules Pisces and Sagittarius, and Saturn bookends the arrangement with rulership of Aquarius and Capricorn. (For more on the history and meaning of this arrangement visit Skyscript here.)

When the modern “outer” planets came along, they were ascribed […]

The astrological state of the Union 2024

One of the many things on which astrologers do not agree is what chart to use for the United States. I use the Sibly chart for 5:10 pm on July 4, 1776 which is the most common chart and the one that works for me.

Many of you are aware that the United States has been going through a Pluto return over the past couple of years but really we have been through a heavily Plutonic period since Pluto in Sagittarius transited over the ascendant of […]

Neptune in Pisces update and a peek at the Aries ingress

art by Amanda Clark

The mystical planet Neptune entered the mystical sign of Pisces in 2011, marking the beginning of a period that has been characterized by illusion and deception. Neptune isn’t inherently deceptive; its role in higher consciousness is to encourage the detachment from the mundane in order to have a transcendent experience of bliss and magic, artistry and inspiration. However, the rose-colored glass of Neptune, and the sign of its (modern) rulership Pisces, can lead to susceptibility and a tendency towards taking the easy road […]

Road to 2024: The astrology of Nikki Haley

Embed from Getty Images

Longtime readers will know that for every U.S. presidential election I like to profile the candidates. Predicting the winner of an election is a tricky business as there are many factors involved (you can read all about that and the failure of astrologers to predict presidential elections in this earlier article).

One of the factors I consider is the chart and personality of the candidate. I also look at how they connect to the U.S. chart, and how current planetary conditions will affect them. I’m not going to attempt any predictions until we’ve looked at all the […]

The astrology of the current Middle East crisis

artist unknown?

Everyone has very strong feelings about this situation but please keep any comments confined to the astrology and I will do the same. 💖

First, some history of the Age of Pisces

The region known as Palestine has been occupied by many nations over the millennia and has been a hotbed of conflict since the beginning of the Piscean age. Pisces is traditionally ruled by Jupiter, the planet which presides over theology and philosophy as well as religion, and the Piscean age has been marked by a dominance of […]

Astrological state of the Union and post Pluto Return America Part II

Part II: The current situation and looking ahead

In yesterday’s post we looked at the past 20 years of Plutonic influences in the (Sibley) astrological chart for the United States leading up to the Pluto return: the period during which transiting Pluto returned to its place in the U.S. chart. Pluto is the planet of destruction and regeneration; Pluto’s placement in the charts of individuals or of nations describes where we meet the shadow, the place of our undoing. In the U.S. chart, Pluto is […]

Astrological state of the Union and Pluto Return update Part I

Part I: A look back at the past 20 years of Plutonic influence.

art by Midjourney and me

The return of Pluto, the planet of destruction and regeneration, to its place in the U.S. astrological chart has been a dramatic event that only occurs once every 248 years. Pluto returns in charts of nations and empires mark periods of great turmoil and change, and we have certainly seen that in the United States. The turmoil actually began long before the beginning of the Pluto return in early 2022:
