There was a solar annular eclipse on 2 Oct 2024 that traversed the southern Pacific. The eclipse path started just south of Hawaii and ended near the Cape Horn in South America. This particular eclipse is in a waxing series and will bear fruit for the US and much of the West. That fruit may be less than palatable, though.

On the evening of July 13, at 6:13 PM in Butler, Pennsylvania, there was an incident involving former Pres. Donald Trump. At least, that is how the liberal media initially reported the attempted assassination of Trump. In fact, Trump survived, and with only a minor injury to his right ear. Had he not turned his head a second before, Trump would probably be dead. However, there are factors to this story that do not add up. Perhaps the astrology of the event and Trump gives us some clues as to what was actually going on. For more, read on… Continue reading “The Incident”
The British elections, like July 4, 2024 have come and gone. We are told the result was a landslide victory for the Labour Party, while the conservatives lost BIGLY, as Trump would say. But upon further examination, we see the real factors that caused Labour’s landslide, as it was called, were voter apathy and populist nationalism. The big losers in the British general election were the British general public. It is an old story, which we will cover here. For more, read on… Continue reading “The 2024 British general election”
The Sun enters Cancer on 20 June this year, marking the Cancerian solstice. Following on from the events from the previous quarter, this one appears as though it will be much the same as the last one, with a few differences. Starting from April of last year a consistent theme in most of the ingress figures at the equinoxes and solstices has been the presence of the Sun in a hard aspect to Neptune, either by conjunction, square or opposition. This ingress figure features a partile square between the two, which will produce significant evenets. For more, read on… Continue reading “The Cancer solar ingress 2024 ([Note:] text added as updates)”
It is not customary for me to give updates on events this early into a new year or into a quarter, but events are such that what follows is merited. So far the Capricorn quarter and the New Year has been both exciting and interesting and not in the most positive of ways. As was forecast in the outlook for the quarter this Capricorn interval has started with a bang, and on several fronts. The events of this quarter thus far will have far-reaching implications and repercussions. For more, read on… Continue reading “Capricorn quarter update 2024”
The Sun enters Capricorn on the 22nd, marking the Capricorn solstice. Given what has happened in the last quarter in Israel we hope for a ceasefire and an end to the carnage in Gaza. That conflict will dominate in this post on the ingress. Does the ingress figure hold the signs for such hopes? For more, read on… Continue reading “The Capricorn solar ingress 2023”
On the morning of 7 Oct 2023 Hamas launched its response to the storming of the Al-Aqsa mosque by Israeli settlers, with its Operation ‘Al-Aqsa Flood’. There were claims that over 5,000 rockets were fired into southern Israel from Gaza. Israel has declared ‘a state of war’. In response, Israeli forces launched ‘Operation Iron Swords’ into the Gaza Strip. For more, read on… Continue reading “Operation Al-Aqsa Flood”
On October 9th 2023 a senior Hamas official announced it had ‘achieved all of its targets’ in Operation Al-Aqsa Flood, and was open to negotiations to end the conflict. Yet the conflict continues. In this 2nd part of our examination of Al-Aqsa Flood, we will look at the causes for the current operations (there have been many, and on both sides) and what this will mean for Israel going forward.

This is one of those rare human interest stories to appear in this blog, but it is of interest for many reasons, outlined as we go along. The 2023 Burning Man festival was planned to begin at the end of August and end on September 4th. That was the plan anyway. Then a little storm happened that threatened to rain on everyone’s parade. But in the end, and after a little delay, The Man finally did burn. And a little adventure and some good stories came out of the event. In looking back, the story gets a little muddy, though… Continue reading “The dousing of Burning Man”
On the night of September 8th a major earthquake struck Morocco south of Marrakesh in the High Atlas Mountains. To date almost 3,000 people have been killed by the falling rubble. Morocco is an ancient country with many buildings in its historic sections that are not reinforced against quakes. The same is true in the rural areas of the country. We’ll have a look at the astrology of the event here, as well as a proposed chart for Morocco. And there is more… Continue reading “2023 Marrakesh-Safi earthquake”
