Every single variation of theirs, every new aspect they form, and notably their eventual sign shift, may provide us with crucial information about humanity's future course. </p><p>There is, however, another important but lesser-known feature of the transcendental planets: the "resonance" of their orbits. I've been researching that feature for some years now and I firmly believe it's a quite useful element in the "mundane astrology" toolkit. </p><p>Take for example the Uranus-Neptune 2:1 "planetary resonance" and its mundane consequences (the 2:1 ratio meaning that Uranus completes two revolutions around the Sun in approx. the time it takes Neptune to complete one). That's actually an astrological "yardstick", which is around 165-year long.</p><p>Let me show you how we can use this cosmic yardstick. Let's take a random year as our point of reference. If we go approximately 165 years back or forward from that given year we will "miraculously" discover (in most cases) that the planets Uranus and Neptune will be located in the very same signs as in our reference year! </p><p>This means that this Uranus-Neptune yardstick is "secretly" correlating periods in time that otherwise appear totally unrelated to one another. That's a quite powerful astological tool and thanks to it I was able to successfully predict i.e. the 2022 Ukraine war, which began with Uranus in Taurus and Neptune in Pisces - the exact same signs these two transcedental planets were in back in 1853, when Russia and the Western powers clashed in the Crimea! </p><p>For years now, I have been presenting the outcomes of my research on several Facebook mundane astrology groups, explaining that if we apply that same "resonance" (the approximately 165-year "yardstick") to the history of the United States, we are going to find that in 2025, Uranus and Neptune will be in the exact same signs they were in in 1861, when the Civil War broke out in the United States (Neptune in the highly anaretic very last degree - and almost very last minute - of Pisces and Uranus in Gemini, exactly as they were on April 12, 1861!) It is worth noting that just two days after the civil war began, Neptune entered the sign of Aries, where it remained for the most of the conflict. </p><p>Therefore, the heavens are informing us that we are about to experience the very same Urano-Neptunian vibrations quite soon. But are those vibrations critical enough to reignite a civil war in the United States? Is the idea valid, or are we arbitrarily tying here the year 2025 to the fatal year 1861? </p><p>Let us put this theory to the test! We take the same "yardstick" and this time we move back 165 years (approx.) from the outbreak of the civil war, around the year 1697 that is. Uranus was once more in Gemini that year, and Neptune had reached the very last degree of Pisces, set to pass in Aries. However, there was no such thing as the "United States" back then! Nor there was any other major civil war in the world by the end of the 17th century. </p><p>So, let's go back to basics and look at the eventual astrological similarities between the years 1861 and 2025 - with reference to the USA's national horoscope, of course. Our initial premise was to locate a date in the near future when Neptune would be in the final degree of Pisces - or in the sign of Aries - and Uranus would be in Gemini. As it turns out though, the time range that meets that premise is eight whole years, from 2025 to 2033. Why am I specifically mentioning 2025 as a possible year for the onset of a second civil war in the United States? Well, take a look first at the two charts below. </p><p>The "Tri-Wheel" chart you see directly below is set for the outbreak of the 1861 Civil War (on April 12th). The innermost wheel is the USA National Horoscope, the middle one is the "Progressed" USA horoscope for 1861, while the outermost wheel depicts the "Transits" of the planets for that fateful day. </p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiHMQXc50VgPdGUhsodHV_wlDXW9sIF-AyIBk9TfJMqbL8DOr0eYkiYgaHk3xnE_z6O8ujRZRoPj8vwruMlSzI8-AjQPcgee6Mvvao8JUU7f4i6j62JAjC4-0jmCzIS5wExHmuYQMkNJR4Ga_Hwsqx1j7RwERAkGHVI1uIlnEXMcM9W6_ABan7anpdFPts3/s912/Civil%20War%20chart%20iiyyy.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="734" data-original-width="912" height="323" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiHMQXc50VgPdGUhsodHV_wlDXW9sIF-AyIBk9TfJMqbL8DOr0eYkiYgaHk3xnE_z6O8ujRZRoPj8vwruMlSzI8-AjQPcgee6Mvvao8JUU7f4i6j62JAjC4-0jmCzIS5wExHmuYQMkNJR4Ga_Hwsqx1j7RwERAkGHVI1uIlnEXMcM9W6_ABan7anpdFPts3/w400-h323/Civil%20War%20chart%20iiyyy.jpg" width="400" /></a></div><br /><p>Because we are discussing a civil war, we must pay special attention to the Fourth House of the United States' national horoscope. The Fourth House represents in Mundane Astrology the people of a country, its common citizens and the nature and character of their relationships with one another. Thus, when we study a civil war astrologically, that "cardinal" House becomes particularly significant! </p><p>Coming down now to the United States' Fourth House, it personally impresses me that its cusp is positioned at the 2nd degree of the bellicose sign of Aries (is this why Americans are world champs in gun ownership?) </p><p>The sign of Aries was dominant on the day of the Civil War's outbreak (how appropriate!) Not just because the Sun and Venus were transiting through Aries. The USA's "Progressed" Moon was in Aries as well! A lot of "ariettid" energy in the United States' Fourth House back then! </p><p>Not to mention transiting Neptune, which may end up being the name of the game in our case. As previously stated, transiting Neptune was at the very last degree of Pisces at the time. It was already conjuncting the cusp of the United States' Fourth House and was about to pass in that House for good. </p><p>But that isn't the only thing Neptune has to give in this study. It was also conjuncting the USA's "Progressed" Moon in Aries. And this is significant because it creates a very powerful "double-whammy" configuration (transiting Neptune affecting with its "dissolving" energies both the USA's Fourth House and its "Progressed" Moon - the significators of the American people, that is)! </p><p>The astonishing coincidence currently is that the identical setup will be duplicated in 2025, as shown in the chart you see on the right (erected for a somehow random date in 2025)! Transiting Neptune will be Conjuncting the cusp of the USA's Fourth House, as well as the USA's "Progressed" Moon, which will be again in Aries! And of course transiting Uranus will be in Gemini, conjuncting once more the USA's natal Uranus. <br /><br /></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhOt4B-OXXQx9aBAovvEoHSmDmEp28dSynC-ulQqx6_NNifMVoJ4wojp5lr9Fh8YOUHF918tQqogPGMLwJxqWFfByiSBjQIRCM_-ZYqJXWokm0sSbGjwf0TWNjgBMTGjtnk8RABGrcoUjqaMsXh399NFedp8tuNFUh4y7m2w1gJSOSm8fTirzKtIByTZapj/s894/USA%20possible%20civil%20war%20in%20USA_n.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="722" data-original-width="894" height="323" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhOt4B-OXXQx9aBAovvEoHSmDmEp28dSynC-ulQqx6_NNifMVoJ4wojp5lr9Fh8YOUHF918tQqogPGMLwJxqWFfByiSBjQIRCM_-ZYqJXWokm0sSbGjwf0TWNjgBMTGjtnk8RABGrcoUjqaMsXh399NFedp8tuNFUh4y7m2w1gJSOSm8fTirzKtIByTZapj/w400-h323/USA%20possible%20civil%20war%20in%20USA_n.jpg" width="400" /></a></div><br /> <p></p><p>Another interesting fact is that for nearly a century, beginning in 1918, the United States had never seen a Solar Eclipse crossing with its path the country (in any direction, i.e. from west to south or east, from south to nord etc.) And then, from 2017 onwards, the paths of three whole solar eclipses begin to cross the United States, all the way through! I am talking of the 2017 and 2023 eclipses, as well as the upcoming April 8th, 2024 eclipse, which will be crossing the Unites States from South to North, beginning - from all places - in Texas! </p><p>Other elements and configurations could be investigated here, as I concentrated on the most important and least discussed ones. It would be fascinating to see in the comments what other people think. <br /><br />Thomas Gazis<br /><span style="font-size: x-small;"><span style="color: red;">Copyright:</span> Thomas D.

Probably because they tend to link the sign of Aquarius with an impending <i>"golden age"</i>! As a result, they mostly make optimistic predictions like <i>"a new brighter era will dawn,"</i> <i>"the common people will rebel against their autocratic rulers"</i> and so on.<br /><br />What those astrologers overlook is the fact that the <i>"Pluto in Aquarius" </i>"equation" has two coefficients: Aquarius AND Pluto! So, on the one hand Pluto is (somehow) <i>"activating"</i> the sign of Aquarius alright, but on the other hand it is simultaneously attempting to impose its <i>"tenebrious vibrations"</i> on the sign of Aquarius! That's crucial and unless we take that aspect into consideration, we will not be able to interpret Pluto in Aquarius correctly. <br /><br />You see, Aquarius represents the <i>"ultimate archetype of freedom"</i>! Left on its own devices the sign of Aquarius is incessantly working for the freedom and self-determination of the common people (and of course planet Uranus is doing something analogous, equally contributing to human liberty).</p><p>The presence of Pluto, however, in the <i>“sign of urns” </i>will significantly <i>"hinder"</i> that Aquarian attribute! You see, Pluto favors the <i>"compulsive unification" </i>of people, over their <i>"individuation" </i>and <i>"self-determination"!</i> Hence, in the years to come, a <i><b>"dictatorship of commonality" </b></i>might start ruling our planet, and those who are deemed "privileged" or not common enough may be stigmatized and "castigated"!<br /><br />Surprisingly, a similar "zeigeist" was in effect during the previous time that planet Pluto was in Aquarius, at the end of the 18th century. What was the major historical event back then? The French Revolution of 1789! A revolution that took place with Pluto in Aquarius and Saturn in Pisces! Does this ring a bell to you? The "harsh" planets Pluto and Saturn will be in the very same zodiacal positions from March 23, 2023 onwards! </p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhpoxaunY77QAOoSBExD7Gak3zGknT1_bj5jhexi33zlOG-8x-v2VEOTjf5WbGaicHmUofWXumht_TTKLfH1EQDS_sumRkj49dYl2aF-9et4oC3vroJF-Q3BWPc_zuUZJ1h7Hwtr96evr84Rlyf3EtTY1JlpDRKubmtDXLBJdKXMY2a3dz7LNTUSEiPlw/s420/335342025_1377473226423888_5932833390117674058_n.jpg" style="clear: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="420" data-original-width="301" height="253" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhpoxaunY77QAOoSBExD7Gak3zGknT1_bj5jhexi33zlOG-8x-v2VEOTjf5WbGaicHmUofWXumht_TTKLfH1EQDS_sumRkj49dYl2aF-9et4oC3vroJF-Q3BWPc_zuUZJ1h7Hwtr96evr84Rlyf3EtTY1JlpDRKubmtDXLBJdKXMY2a3dz7LNTUSEiPlw/w181-h253/335342025_1377473226423888_5932833390117674058_n.jpg" width="181" /></a></div><p></p><p>The 1789 revolution was followed by the infamous "Reign of Terror" (during 1793-94, with Pluto in Aquarius opposed by Uranus in Leo - that's actually a "double-whammy" configuration, a quite potent one). Tens of thousands of (often innocent) French citizens were deemed, by fast-track trials, "enemies of the State" and were executed at the famous "Guillotine"!</p><p>Thus, if you were socially "privileged" and not "commoner" enough, that was one of the worst times in history to live in France! Do you see Pluto in Aquarius at its wildest here? And can you guess how wild the "stygian" Pluto in "loco" Aquarius will get in the years to come?</p><p><b><br /></b></p><p><b> The dictatorship of the "abnormal"!</b></p><p>Another dictatorship that Pluto in Aquarius can forcefully impose on us is that of the "abnormal"! Types of persons and events that were previously regarded odd and even weird will be promoted as the "norm" (for example, men declaring that they believe they are women).</p><p><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgarlOk4KIin1iWJJxvCIyA6lHgD-yoV1fGLyWd5MHZmOtZAwa_hzzySlv7qMfDvM7YyT_UaeOVzNZoFDpJXfx0N7NYLivN7O6sAUcI_ITMZkkg5MUtlBZd-NLE2hl_tmR26CMC2kT6SH0zQCDru6eesQOwHDDYInejZBCbsUt6eB7AthdAn5vVXQGmRQbm/s300/Pritzker%20420474741_10161596517208754_2942250795318799004_n.jpg" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em; text-align: center;"><img border="0" data-original-height="208" data-original-width="300" height="139" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgarlOk4KIin1iWJJxvCIyA6lHgD-yoV1fGLyWd5MHZmOtZAwa_hzzySlv7qMfDvM7YyT_UaeOVzNZoFDpJXfx0N7NYLivN7O6sAUcI_ITMZkkg5MUtlBZd-NLE2hl_tmR26CMC2kT6SH0zQCDru6eesQOwHDDYInejZBCbsUt6eB7AthdAn5vVXQGmRQbm/w200-h139/Pritzker%20420474741_10161596517208754_2942250795318799004_n.jpg" width="200" /></a></p><p>Many people today may find it strange for a (previously) male colonel (such as American Jennifer Pritzker) to lead his soldiers while dressed in a skirt and makeup. However, this will be relatively normal in the near future.<br /><br />But there is a paradox here! The transgender movement is not "grassroots"! It appears to have spread "from top to bottom". That is, it was conceived, funded, and supported by wealthy Americans such as Jennifer Pritzker. This contradicts the whole essence of the "peripheral" sign of Aquarius! However, it is very much in sync with the "Pluto in Aquarius" spirit.</p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><p><b> Not owing any of your own money!</b></p><p>Let me give you an example of how that <i>"dictatοrship of commonality"</i> that I described above might affect our money. Soon all money will be digital. Bills and coins will be redrawn by the state and will thus vanish! Only digital money transactions will be allowed.</p><p>You might think that that's a rather convenient thing. No more dirty and perishable paper banknotes in our hands! Well, think again because there is as well a quite dark <i>"Pluto in Aquarius"</i> side to it!
<br /><br />With all money being digital, the State will have the absolute control of it! Meaning that the State's long hand will constantly be in your pocket (or digital bank account). If some day the State decides that - due to some imminent crisis - the food, the gasoline etc. should be rationed and every citizen should receive an equal portion of food, gasoline etc (no matter how much money s/he has) then you will see Pluto in Aquarius in its best! </p><p>You see, if you don't have much money Pluto in Aquarius will somehow work to your advantage. It will mainly hurt people who have enough to a lot of money, because under a digital rationing regime their fortune will be somehow blocked and "castigated", making them feel as if it were worthless - if it cannot abundantly provide them what they want! This is an unprecedented situation that has never occurred again in our societies, in the last few centuries.<br /><br />If we have ever dreamed of a society with fewer money inequalities, or the "democratization of money," Pluto in Aquarius will bring us as close to that vision as possible!
The dark aspect though of Pluto in Aquarius is that the state will be able to easily cut off the flow of money (in the interest of the "greater good") at any given moment. Capital controls on our money will be easily implemented. <i>"Money driven lockdowns" </i>as well, in which each citizen will be allowed to receive and spend money i.e. only within a certain range of his/her home .
<br /><br />All in all, Pluto in Aquarius will definitely regulate, to a considerable extent, the <i>"money inequalities"</i> (and all kinds of inequalities) that currently exist in our societies. On the other hand, it may deprive individuals of many liberties (and that will in fact be the effect of the totalitarian side of Pluto over the sign of Aquarius - the <i>"vessel" </i>of absolute freedom)! Freedom will be worth dying for! <br /><br />Thomas Gazis<br /><span style="font-size: x-small;"><i><span style="color: red;">Copyright:</span> Thomas D.

In fact,
many people might be surprised to find out that Byzantine astrology even
existed. It did, though, and it was marvelous!</p><p>Byzantium was somehow a continuation of the Hellenistic world, so
astrology was a natural part of its tradition. Additionally, the Byzantines
were geographically close to the Persians and Arabs - who themselves had
adopted and developed the Hellenistic astrology. Consequently,
Byzantium became a particularly fertile ground for the dissemination of
astrological ideas, at the time. </p><p>Some of the most competent astrologers of that era originated in this part
of the world. Among them was John Abramius, whom I am sharing with
you in this article. Aside from his skills as an astrologer, Abramius
kickstarted what we might call a “tardive Byzantine astrological school"!
Its influence was such that even illustrious figures, such as Cardinal Isidore
of Kiev, studied astrology there!<br /><span></span></p><a name='more'></a>But first, let's get a better understanding of when and where we are. The
Byzantine empire was founded when Constantine moved his empire's
capital from Rome to Constantinople in 330 CE. Geographically, it
corresponded to the Eastern half of the Roman empire. Actually, it began
as a Roman empire, but it soon “morphed” into a Greek-Byzantine one.
You see, that part of the world had been Hellenistic for centuries - and had
largely remained so, even during Roman occupation. A Hellenistic "Geist"
was prevalent there! <div><br /></div><div>Why is Byzantium no longer around? What happened to it? Well, the
invading Turks conquered it and converted it into the country we now
know as Turkey. The city of Istanbul is the modern-day equivalent of the
mythical Constantinople. </div><div><br /></div><div>Let’s turn now to our protagonist, Abramius. Byzantium had been reduced
to a shadow of its former self, by the time he was born (in the first half of
the 14th century). His homeland had already suffered two devastating
blows: the first cοming from the Seljuk Turks, who had invaded and
occupied vast Byzantine territories in Anatolia. The second blow was dealt
by the Franco-Latin Crusaders, who instead of seeking Jerusalem, they
oddly besieged Constantinople - and occupied it for nearly 60 years (1204-
1261 CE). As a result of these parallel invasions by Turkish and Franco-Latin
armies, Byzantium fell to its knees. </div><div><br /></div><div>Such massive invasions could have easily caused Byzantium’s demise! But
it miraculously survived (partially, at least)! Not anymore as an empire, but
rather as a relatively small and dignified kingdom! It morphed into an
almost modern kingdom, less theocratic, more open to letters, sciences,
and innovative ideas! In fact, historians call this specific era, in which
Abramius lived, "the Palaeologan Renaissance''! A Renaissance that actually
preceded the Italian one! </div><div><br /></div><div>3
"Christ raising the dead" - Chora Monastery in Constantinople (14th century) </div><div><br /></div><div>After centuries of neglect, astrology and astronomy were finally revived
during this “golden” Palaeologan period (also due to Byzantines' easy
access to Islamic sources). A number of excellent astronomers and
astrologers emerged then, including the polymaths Metochites and
Gregoras. It was astrologers of such a caliber who trained Abramius. </div><div><br /></div><div> Constantinople around 1200 CE </div><div><br /></div><div><br /></div><div>JOHN ABRAMIUS, AN EMINENT BYZANTINE ASTROLOGER! </div><div><br /></div><div>Almost no biographical information is available
about the Greek - Byzantine astrologer John
Abramius. He would not even exist today if the
renowned American professor David Pingree
hadn't studied his manuscripts and published a
pivotal essay on him. </div><div><br /></div><div>The work of Abramius makes it clear that he was a
foremost astrologer. He appears to be at the
service of Prince Andronicus IV, who was banished by his own father (King
John V Palaeologus). Abramius actually erected a "catarchic" horoscope,
indicating the best time for Andronicus to usurp his father’s throne (we
will examine that “catarchic” further on). </div><div><br /></div><div>The prestigious position he held - as well as his astrologer skills - soon made
Abramius the center of attention for an entire circle of people interested
in astrology. This resulted in him having ever more students, who
consequently imparted their "abramian" knowledge to their own students
etc. In time, a thriving "Palaeologan school of astrology" emerged. </div><div><br /></div><div>One of Abramius' key students was Eleutherius Elius (probably his
assistanttoo). It is believed he is the author of an astrological compendium
(containing Arabo-Hellenistic material) originally attributed to a non existent “Palchus”. </div><div><br /></div><div>A number of other eminent students attended the school, among them
Demetrius Chlorus, Dionysius, and John Chortasmenus. In fact, the latter
had Cardinal Isidore of Kiev as his student. </div><div><br /></div><div>Let us now examine the horoscope (a "catarchic") that Abramius
“elected”, so that his master Andronicus would enter Constantinople
under good omen, in order to take over the throne from his father. The
date proposed was August 12, 1376, at 9:30 a.m. </div><div><br /></div><div>(Not an actual image of Abramius) </div><div><br /></div><div><br /></div><div>I will explain the components of this chart further on. Meanwhile, I am
providing the following tables that will help you read this "catarchic" on
your own, should you wish it. </div><div><br /></div><div><br /></div><div>THE BYZANTINE GLYPHS OF THE FOUR ANGLES </div><div><br /></div><div>The astrological glyphs were probably created by the Byzantines,
who likely derived them from alchemical symbols. At any rate, the
Byzantines were the first to use astrological glyphs regularly. </div><div><br /></div><div>In order to create the astrological glyphs of the four Angles of the
horoscope, the Byzantines simply abbreviated the Greek names for
each Angle, creating appropriate “calligraphic ligatures”. </div><div><br /></div><div>Thus, the Byzantine glyph of the Ascendant comes from the
corresponding Greek term:
ωροσκόπος. You just have to
select the very first two letters of
the Greek term (ω and ρ) and then
insert ρ into ω.</div><div><br /></div><div>The Midheaven glyph comes from
the corresponding Greek term:
Μεσουράνημα (inserting ρ in Μ).</div><div><br /></div><div>The glyph of Imum Coeli comes
from the corresponding Greek
term υπόΓειον (basement), by placing π and Γ above υ. </div><div><br /></div><div>The glyph of the Descendant derives from the corresponding Greek
term Δύνων (the relative Greek letters are clearly visible in the glyph). </div><div><br /></div><div><br /></div><div>THE BYZANTINE GLYPHS FOR THE PLANETS AND SIGNS </div><div><br /></div><div>Four of the planetary glyphs used by Abramius
are quite unrecognizable today:</div><div> </div><div>• The Byzantine glyph of the Sun, which is
represented by a “cone” </div><div>• The Byzantine glyph of Venus is the same as
ours, except for an occasional “feeler” on
its upper left part </div><div>• The glyph of Mars is a ligature of Mars’
Greek name αρης </div><div>• The glyph of Jupiter is a ligature of Jupiter's
Greek name ζευς </div><div><br /></div><div><br /></div><div>Almost all of the Byzantine glyphs of the signs can be
recognized today, by a modern astrologer, with the
exception of two: </div><div><br /></div><div>• The glyph of Taurus is a ligature of the
corresponding Greek word ταύρος </div><div><br /></div><div>• The glyph of Capricorn appears to be a ligature
of the corresponding Greek word αιγόκερως </div><div><br /></div><div><br /></div><div>Here is the transliteration in English of this Abramius’ catarchic, for the
Andronicus entry in Constantinople (in the Byzantine year 6884 = 1376 AD.
According to the Byzantines, the world was created in the year 5509
before Christ, on September 1st): </div><div><br /></div><div><br /></div><div>And ultimately, the same chart, as provided by the computer: </div><div><br /></div><div><br /></div><div>Abramius wrote in the horoscope's description:
"On August 12th, 6884, three and a half hours after sunrise,
Emperor Andronicus Paleologus entered Constantinople and seized
imperial power." </div><div><br /></div><div>The original handwriting interpretation of Abramius and its corresponding
interpretation in English are shown below: </div><div><br /></div><div><i>“The Lot of Kingship is in a bad place, the 8th, the lord of its triplicity, namely
Venus, is in a good place, the Midheaven; this indicates that the emperor will
get back on his feet from some pain and misery (or cowardice) and will be
more manly. And since both lords of the triplicity of the Lot of Kingship,
namely Venus and the Moon, are in a good place, at the Midheaven, and
moreover Venus rises in the East, it indicates that there will be happiness and
victory for the emperor, except that, since Jupiter is in the twelfth place, it
indicates that the emperor will have some moderate sorrow and that there
will be some irregularity in the imperial affairs. Since the Midheaven is in the
terms of a benefic planet, Jupiter, it means a good outcome.” </i></div><div><br /></div><div><br /></div><div>PECULIARITIES OF THE ABRAMIUS’ TECHNIQUE </div><div><br /></div><div>• He is using the "Original Porphyry" house system. There is a 5
degrees “pre-span” to the Ascendant and MC. All house cusps have
been moved back in the zodiac by 5 degrees. </div><div><br /></div><div>• He mostly relies on Hellenistic sources. He is calculating the Lot of
Kingship using Heliodorus' (Olympiodorus?) ancient formula </div><div><br /></div><div>• He does not adhere to a single “Terms” system </div><div><br /></div><div>• The North Lunar Node is intentionally (?) placed in the auspicious
Fifth "Place" (of Good Fortune), despite standing in the Fourth. </div><div><br /></div><div>• He provides some quite accurate positions for the planets and the
house cusps </div><div><br /></div><div><br /></div><div>THE “ORIGINAL PORPHYRY” HOUSE SYSTEM (5 DEGREES PRE-SPAN) </div><div><br /></div><div>Abramius ignores the house systems favored by the Islamist astrologers
of that time. He relies instead on an authentic Hellenistic system: the
"Original Porphyry”! In it, the Ascendant and MC don't line up with the
respective house cusps (a 5 degrees “pre-span” is separating them). All
the house cusps have been moved back in the zodiac, by exactly 5
degrees!
10
Apparently, it was Ptolemy who first proposed the concept of the "5
degrees pre-span". As he states in "Tetrabiblos", concerning the "aphetic
places" ("αφετικούς τόπους"): </div><div><br /></div><div><i>“Firstly, we must consider those places prorogative, in which by all means
the planet must be that is to receive the lordship of the prorogation;
namely, the twelfth part of the zodiac surrounding the horoscope, from 5°
above the actual horizon up to the 25° that remains, which is rising in
succession to the horizon;”</i> </div><div><br /></div><div> ("Tetrabiblos" book 3, chapter 10, paragraph 3) </div><div><br /></div><div><br /></div><div>THE ELIODORUS (OLIMPIODORUS?) LOT OF KINGSHIP FORMULA </div><div><br /></div><div>Abramius uses a rather unusual formula to calculate the Lot of Kingship
(in his catarchic of Andronicus IV's entry into Constantinople). It does not
resemble the corresponding formulas used by the Islamist astrologers of
that era. In some Islamic manuscripts, however, that formula appears to
have survived - such as in Al Biruni's - but it had apparently fallen out of
use.
In contrast, Abramius refers directly to a book by the Hellenistic
astrologer Heliodorus (probably the misspelled name of the famous
11
astrologer Olympiodorus), containing commentaries on Paul
Alexandrinus' work. You may read below the relative excerpt in Greek: </div><div><br /></div><div><i>"The Lot of Kingship is calculated by adding the longitudinal
difference between the Sun and the Moon to the degrees of the
Midheaven."</i></div><div><br /></div><div>("Heliodori, ut dicitur, in Paulum Alexandrinum Commentarium" 22.16 E. Boer). </div><div><br /></div><div>There seems to be no difference between diurnal and nocturnal
nativities, in terms of this formula. </div><div><br /></div><div>THE SYMBOLS OF THE LUNAR NODES ARE INVERTED! </div><div><br /></div><div>Abramius' charts feature inverted symbols of the Lunar Nodes: The North
Node is represented by the symbol of our South Node, and vice versa.
That’s not a mistake, but a mainstream feature of Byzantine astrology! The
interesting thing is that some European horoscopes from the 14th-15th
centuries also show inverted lunar node symbols. It would be reasonable
to assume that the astrologers who erected those renaissance period
horoscopes were somehow influenced by the Byzantine astrology. </div><div><br /></div><div>ABRAMIUS DOES NOT ADHERE TO A SINGLE “TERMS” SYSTEM </div><div><br /></div><div>He utilizes both the Ptolemaic and the Egyptian “Terms” system! The
“catarchic” of the Andronicus' entry into Constantinople, for example, has
its MC at the 9
th degree of Cancer. According to Abramius, the “Term” of
the specific MC is ruled by Jupiter, so he is utilizing a Ptolemaic “Terms”
system in this case. However, in the case of Manuel's proclamation chart
(we will examine it further on) he is positing that the “Term” of the
Ascendant (17 degrees Sagittarius) is ruled by Venus, so in that case he is
utilizing an Egyptian “Terms” system! </div><div><br /></div><div>HIS CALCULATIONS ARE QUITE ACCURATE </div><div><br /></div><div>As you may see below: </div><div><br /></div><div><br /></div><div>ABRAMIUS JUDGING THE "CATARCHIC" OF THE ANDRONICUS'
BROTHER'S PROCLAMATION </div><div><br /></div><div>It's worth noting that both Prince Andronicus and his father, the emperor
John Palaeologus, belonged to the same (somewhat bellicose) sign of
Aries! The two had a big feud, as we know! Therefore, it shouldn't
surprise us the fact that in 1373 John Palaeologus anointed his other son,
Manuel, as co-emperor. </div><div><br /></div><div>Obviously, this did not sit well with Andronicus, who believed the throne
belonged to him and not to his rival brother. Therefore, it appears that
Andronicus asked Abramius to judge astrologically whether the moment
of his brother's inauguration was favorable. </div><div><br /></div><div>The description of the horoscope reads: </div><div><br /></div><div><i>"Horoscope erected on the occasion of the proclamation (as co-emperor) of Manuel, son of Emperor John Palaeologus, at noon on
September 25 of the year 6882." </i></div><div><br /></div><div>You may see below the “transliteration” of this horoscope in English -
with the corresponding modern astrology glyphs in it:</div><div><br /></div><div><br /></div><div>And here is its modern, computer plotted, version: </div><div><br /></div><div><br /></div><div>The otherwise accurate Abramius seems to have miscalculated here the
position of the Moon by 14 whole degrees - and consequently the Lots of
Fortune and Kingship! It is as if he calculated this catarchic for September
24th (and not for September 25th, as he is stating). </div><div><br /></div><div><br /></div><div>Here is Abramius’ judgement: </div><div><br /></div><div><i>"Jupiter, lord of the sign of the Ascendant, Sagittarius, is in the eighth place.
Jupiter, lord of the ascendant, is opposite Saturn, which is in a bad place, the
second. Jupiter, lord of the ascendant, and Saturn, lord of the second place,
are contrary to each other since they are diametrically opposed. The lord of
the house (occupied by the Lot) of fortune, Jupiter, is in the eighth place,
which is opposed to the second and both places are bad. Mars, being in the
fourth place, indicates that its end will be bad. The lord of the “clime” in
which the venture took place, namely Saturn, is opposite to the lord of the
ascendant, Jupiter.
Mars, being a malefic, is opposite the Sun (in a “vespertine acronycal” state,
as Abramius points out). </i></div><div><i><br /></i></div><div><i>Mars and Sun are of opposite sect. The Moon applies
to Saturn, which is malefic, and they are of opposite sect. The sign of the
Midheaven, being tropical, indicates that the duration of the venture is
unstable, weak, and volatile. The Ascendant, being bicorporal, indicates that
it will last for some time, but not very long. The Moon is applying to Saturn
and Saturn is not stationary (actually it was); this indicates that the
beginning is unstable. Mars, being a malefic, is opposed to the Midheaven and
is aboutto form a quartile with the Ascendant; this indicates that the change
will be rapid. Mars is opposed to Venus, which is the lord planet of the
Midheaven, and so is very active in this chart. </i></div><div><i><br /></i></div><div><i>The Descendant, being an oblique sign, is afflicted by a malefic, Mars, which
is in quartile configuration with it. Its lord though, Mercury, holds a good
position and indicates that the man is simple and pure. The Moon applies to
Saturn, which is malefic, and indicates that his succession will be rapid. The
Sun is in a cardinal sign and is afflicted, being opposed to a malefic, Mars, so
it indicates brevity. The brevity is due to the fact that the lords of the houses
(occupied by the) luminaries, namely Venus and Saturn, are afflicted by
malefics, Venus by Mars and Saturn both by itself and by Mars.
The lord of the ascendant, Jupiter, is in opposition to the lord of the second
place, Saturn; this indicates that the ruler will willingly spend a lot of money.
The eleventh place is injured by Saturn, which is configured in trigon to it; this
17
indicates harm to members of his household. The injury of the second place
indicates harm to his flock (to his subjects)." </i></div><div><i><br /></i></div><div>Indeed, Abramius did his best to demonstrate that this “catarchic” is ill
elected (he even enlisted the planetary ruler of Constantinople’s “clime”)!
He was obviously eager to please his powerful master.</div><div><br /></div><div>Thomas Gazis</div><div><span style="font-size: x-small;"><span style="color: red;">Copyright:</span> Thomas D.

Only two dates came out: February 9th, 156 BCE and the period around June 1520 (when Mars, Uranus and the North Node were in Taurus alright, but not in a partile configuration). That's quite remarkable! The Mars - Uranus - North Node conjunction in Taurus (alongwith Saturn in Aquarius) has re-occurred just twice, in the last 3400 years!</p><p>The first time was back in 156 BCE (when Saturn was in Aquarius as well, as it is currently). Nothing "big" occurred in that specific year. The overall, though, period around 156 BCE was quite important. You see, a new super-power was in a meteoric rise back then: Rome! Rome was finally taking the upper hand in the Punic wars and was about to irrevocably destroy Carthago! Plus, Rome began having back then military superiority over the Macedonian Greeks! So, a little after 156 BCE Rome literary annihilated two ex empires and became the undisputable master of the Mediterranean! </p><p>The other Mars - Uranus - North Node conjunction in Taurus occurred around June 1520 CE. As I explained, it wasn't a partile conjunction, as it currently is. And Saturn was once more in Aquarius!
In a previous article, that I had posted here, I had written that I consider the year 1520 CE as a landmark of the European Colonialism! It was back then that a European kingdom (Spain) defeated and colonized for the first time ever a trans-continental empire (the one of the Aztecs)! And immediately after this key event the European kingdoms started colonizing, on a massive scale, the entire planet!<br /><br />Thomas Gazis</p><p><i><span style="font-size: x-small;"><span style="color: red;">Copyright:</span> Thomas D.

Starting with what we consider the oldest known empires, the Mesopotamian and Egyptian ones, the "world hegemony" was consequently taken over by the Hellenistic Empire, by the Roman Empire, by the Frankish one and - later on - by the Spanish and the English empires! Then, the center of power shifted further westwards and USA became the strongest world empire! And apparently the time has come for the "world hegemony" to shift even further westwards, to China! </p><p>Such discussions are often held on the internet. But most of us are treating them as if they concerned some distant future event. Few people realize that this "changing of hegemony" process is happening right now, right in front of our own eyes! </p><p>I believe that we Westerners (Europeans + Americans) are somehow out of touch with the current cataclysmic events that are taking place all over the planet! We have been ruling the world for so long that we have become complacent and arrogant. But the current war in Ukraine has dramatically overturned many things that we were taking for granted, till now! </p><p>First of all, we are having a distorted perception of reality! Our western media are telling us that the entire planet is hating the Russians, because they invaded Ukraine. The reality is that the two thirds of the world population are pro-Russian (courtesy of the USA interventions and invasions in very many countries, all over the planet). Our western media are telling us that the Russian economy has been hit hard and the Russian Ruble is now worthless. In reality (as you can see in the diagram below) the Russian Ruble is almost stronger now that it used to be before the war in Ukraine! <br /><br /><br /></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh9E5bMguUAZFYXPcNrZEr33oUUJNG5XJ2n9qlHhirsMSKTq47UE6QrKvYbjjxc1gUQwPsG3ZEbKhEN4LIfKdEGxUuYSje6YdwbQ4I9X4Jg8alu4E9YJCP5kLe6Kpe1yufJkbD_MtUVahn6YPxQkrMEvs31xsBelXQgMvPIcU2oLOr5oB745AOdaqDxeg/s1155/Ruble%20to%20US%20Dollar%20chart.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="565" data-original-width="1155" height="196" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh9E5bMguUAZFYXPcNrZEr33oUUJNG5XJ2n9qlHhirsMSKTq47UE6QrKvYbjjxc1gUQwPsG3ZEbKhEN4LIfKdEGxUuYSje6YdwbQ4I9X4Jg8alu4E9YJCP5kLe6Kpe1yufJkbD_MtUVahn6YPxQkrMEvs31xsBelXQgMvPIcU2oLOr5oB745AOdaqDxeg/w400-h196/Ruble%20to%20US%20Dollar%20chart.png" width="400" /></a></div><br /><p>Actually, what has been hit hard is the economy of Europe! The prices of basic goods have skyrocketed in the previously prosperous Europe and the inflation is rampant! The prices of the basic goods have risen as well in the USA. This is probably the first tangible sign that USA is getting weaker in the world scene! It is still a military super power but its economy leaves much to be desired! In February 2022 USA's national debt topped 30 trillion - for the first time ever in the history of this great country! With such a humongous debt the USA economy is currently on the verge of collapse! </p><p>You might argue that USA has been having a huge debt for decades now and apparently has handled it fine, so far! Things have drastically changed though! You see, the US dollar has been the world's reserve currency ever since 1944 - with the "Bretton Woods" agreement. With that agreement the US Dollar acquired a unique international status - and the US economy some amazing privileges! But that era seems to be ending now, as more and more countries are buying and selling goods not anymore with US Dollars but with other currencies (such as the chinese Yuan and the Russian Ruble). The US Dollar is rapidly losing its status as the "word's reserve currency"! That's not good! </p><p>You see, the USA financial mechanisms were facing so far the spectre of the huge national debt by issuing more banknotes, by printing that is more dollars! And as long as the US Dollar was the "world's reserve currency" they could get away with it! Till the day that is that the US Dollar would start losing its much privileged international status! And apparently that day has arrived! </p><p>One of the first signs of a "debilitated" currency is the so called "domestic inflation". Since the US Dollar is getting weaker, you will need more of it to buy the same things you used to buy in the past at a lower price. You need i.e. more dollars now to fill the gas tank of your car - in comparison to just a few months ago! As the US Dollar and the Euro will be getting weaker the prices in our western countries will keep rising! </p><p>But we are apparently oblivious of all this! That's definitely the result of the current Jupiter - Neptune mega - conjunction in Pisces! It is as if we are living in a permanent fog and the only thing we can discern is some shadowy figures and actions taking place all around us! Not to mention that the aforementioned mega-conjunction in Pisces is somehow announcing to us - with fireworks - that the world we used to know is closing now its cycle and is arriving to its end!<br /><br />Thomas Gazis </p><p><i><span style="font-size: x-small;"><span style="color: red;">Copyright:</span> Thomas D.

You see, a 500 years period is quite significant, astrologically speaking. Every 500 years (approx.) a Neptune / Pluto conjunction is taking place on the earthy skies. A conjunction that is considered a major player in Mundane Astrology! We might not have currently a Neptune / Pluto conjunction on our skies - nor we had 500 years ago - but the relation of Pluto to Neptune (their "phase") is today exactly the same as it was 500 years ago: Neptune in Pisces and Pluto in Capricorn, forming an over-stretched "waxing" Sextile among them. This means that we are somehow experiencing now - on a collective and on a "transcendental" level - a kind of "zeitgeist" that is similar to the one that humanity experienced 500 years ago (I will expand on this a little further on)!
<br /><br />The significance, though, of this 500 years planetary cycle does not end there. There is much more to it than that! Because ultimately, <b>this 500 years period coincides with a mega "resonance" planetary cycle!</b> Let me show you what I mean.
<br /><br />To start with the most exterior planet, <b>Pluto</b>, this little (but ultra-powerful) fella is completing an orbit around the Sun every <b>248</b> years (247,94 to be precise). Thus, in a period of 500 years Pluto has completed <b>2</b> orbits around the Sun (not precisely but pretty close to it)! Meaning that if we know in what sign Pluto is at a certain year we can easily find in what sign it was 500 years prior to that year. In most cases, Pluto would be in the same sign - or otherwise in an adjacent one.
<br /><br />I have already pointed out in another article the Uranus - Neptune 168 years (approx.) "resonance". Let's see now whether or not these two planets "resonate" to the 500 years period, as well. Planet <b>Neptune</b> is completing an orbit around the Sun every <b>165</b> years (164,81 to be precise). If we divide now 500 by 165 we get a number that is astonishingly close to the number <b>3</b>! This can be very useful to us, because if we know in what sign Neptune is at a certain year we can easily find out in what sign Neptune was 500 years prior to that year (most probably in the very same sign - or otherwise in an adjacent one).
<br /><br />Moving on to <b>Uranus</b>, this eccentric planet is completing an orbit around the Sun every <b>84</b> years (84,02 to be precise). If we divide now 500 by 84 we get a number that is quite close to the number <b>6</b>! Thus, in a period of 500 years Uranus has completed six orbits around the Sun! Meaning that by knowing in what sign Uranus is at a certain year we can deduce that most probably it was in the very same sign 500 years prior to that year - or otherwise in an adjacent one.</p><p>Let's see now if this works with <b>Saturn</b>, as well. The planet of the rings is completing an orbit around the Sun every <b>29 years</b> (29,46 to be precise). If we divide now 500 by 29 we get a number that is pretty close to the number <b>17</b>! Thus, in a period of 500 years Saturn has completed seventeen orbits around the Sun! Therefore, if we know in what sign Saturn is at a certain year we can find in what sign it was 500 years prior to that year: most probably in the very same sign - or in an adjacent one.
<br /><br />Do you see my point here? 500 years ago the planets Saturn, Uranus, Neptune and Pluto might have been in the very same signs they are now! Saturn in Aquarius, Uranus in Taurus, Neptune in Pisces and Pluto in Capricorn! "These things don't happen" you might say. Well, they actually do! Because <b>in 1522 indeed all of the outer planets, from Saturn to Pluto, were in the same zodiacal signs that they are now!</b><br /><br />What are the chances of such a coincidence? Not very many, I would say. You see, If we start going back in time in 500-year increments (1000, 1500, 2000, 3000 years etc.), the "harmonic resonance" of the 500-year rule will begin to break down. (as the planets Pluto, Neptune, Uranus and Saturn will start shifting into ever more adjacent signs. In an oddly symmetrical manner though: when Saturn and Uranus shift (in tandem!) to the previous sign then Neptune and Pluto shift (again in tandem!) to the following sign, and vice versa.Thus, this "mega-resonance" is mostly "in tune" within the 500 hundred years range before or after a given year. Even then, however, there might still be some "cacophonies", having i.e. a planet in the sign that is adjacent to the anticipated one.</p><p>Yet there is something extremely intriguing happening here. I researched the last 7000 years (using the "Solar Fire 9" astrology program) and discovered that the planets that concern us (Saturn, Uranus, Neptune, and Pluto) have been in the same zodiacal positions that they occupy today (simultaneously) <b>only once</b>: around the year 1522 CE! Never before, never after that period! So, <b>there must be something quite unique and special that is connecting us with the year 1522 CE.</b> What would it be?
<br /><br />Half a millennium ago cataclysmic events were taking place almost all over the globe, events instigated by the major <b>European powers</b> of the time, which were vying to conquer and colonize as many foreign lands as possible! The great protagonists of that era were the Spaniards, who actually were the first Europeans to conquer and colonize a transcontinental empire (the Aztec one)! On August 13, 1521 the relatively small Cortes army finally overpowered the significantly more numerous Aztecs and militarily captured Tenochtitlan (today's Mexico city). That was a monumental event, that occurred while Saturn, Uranus, Neptune, and Pluto were in the very same signs they are now! Hence, when Cortes was named governor of "New Spain" in 1522, that event marked the beginning of the European powers' centuries-long rule over practically the entire world!</p><p>Fast forward 500 years and that astonishing European preponderance seems to have irrevocably faded, with Europe being reduced now to a helpless bystander in the deadly USA-Russia-China mega-clash over the world's new domination! <br /><br />Thomas Gazis<br /><i><span style="font-size: x-small;"><span style="color: red;">Copyright:</span> Thomas D.

But out of some odd circumstances<b> you might soon start watching on your TV/PC screen the brand new Crimea (and Ukraine) 2021 war</b>, which most probably will be eerily similar to the 1853 one! Almost the same military powers will be involved in it! Russia from the one side and on the other side Turkey, alongwith the NATO alliance (comprising USA, UK and to some extent France).
<br /><br />If you do the math, you will realize that there are exactly <b>168 years</b> seperating 2021 from 1853! But this number of years is significant to both astronomy and astrology! You see, <b>it takes exactly 168 years for the planet Uranus to orbit twice the Sun</b> (and thus, to cross twice the zodiac)! Plus, it takes <b>almost 168 years</b> (165 in reality) for <b>Neptune</b> to orbit the Sun and to cross once the zodiac!
<br /><br />What's the meaning of all this? Well, back in 1853 (taking as a starting point the date October 5th 1853, when the war officially broke out) Uranus was in Taurus and Neptune in Pisces, in the very same signs they are today, in 2021! Not to mention that the North Node was back in 1853 in the sign of Gemini (and of course the South Node in Sagittarius), in the same signs they are in 2021!</p><p>That's not a coincidence either! It is the result of a "resonance" too. You see, if we divide our 168 <i>"yardstick"</i> years by 18,5941 - the number of years it takes for the Lunar Nodes to cross the zodiac - we come up impressively close to the round number 9! Meaning that ever since 1853 the Lunar Nodes have orbited exactly nine times the zodiac - thus, in 1853 they were in the very same signs they are today.<br /><br /></p><p> <b>The Civil War "Resonance"</b></p><p>I've been working for some time on this Uranus - Neptune astronomical - astrological 2:1 <i>"resonance"</i> (an approximately 165 years <i>"yardstick"</i>) and its mundane implications and I am getting so far great results! We can apply, for example, the very same method to the USA Civil War period, which occurred just 8 years after the Crimea war. When the Civil War broke (on the 12th of April 1861) <b>Neptune was at the <i>"anaretic"</i> very last degree </b>- and almost very last minute -<b> of Pisces! Planet Uranus </b>on the other hand<b> was in Gemini.</b> And we are about to witness, in the near future, the planets Neptune and Uranus occupying the same placements. In fact, <b>for a short period in 2025 (from October 22nd to November 8th) Neptune will be located at the anaretic last degree of Pisces - while Uranus will be in Gemini! </b></p><p>There are though some astrological <i>"nuances"</i> that differentiate the two <i>"resonant"</i> historical periods: Uranus was <i>"direct"</i> and well within the sign of Gemini during the outbreak of the 1861 Civil War. But Uranus will be <i>"retrograde"</i> during the 2025 short <i>"resonance"</i> repetition and precariously located at the very first degree of Gemini (and just about to return back in the sign of Taurus - breaking thus the <i>"resonance" spell</i>)! But Uranus never retrograded in Taurus, during the Civil War period! Plus the Nodal Axis will be quite off in 2025 (in Pisces - Virgo, while back in 1851 it was in Capricorn - Cancer).</p><p>The Lunar Nodes will be in the Capricorn - Cancer axis from March 8th, 2028 onwards! Uranus will be then <i>"direct"</i> in Gemini and Neptune in Aries! But there is still another nuance: back in 1861 Neptune had actually retrograded in Pisces for a few months (October 1861 - mid February 1862 actually) and then it turned <i>"direct"</i> and re-entered Aries. But when we come down to 2028, Neptune will not turn <i>"retrograde"</i> at all in Pisces, from March 8th, 2028 onwards (that is, after the nodes move to the Capricorn - Cancer axis). Thus, we are not going to experience in the immediate future an <b>exact</b> Civil War's <i>"resonant replica"</i>! </p><p>Thomas Gazis<br /><i style="font-size: small;"><span style="color: red;">Copyright: </span>Thomas D.

<i></i> <i>(Disclaimer: I am a Greek citizen. I don't support Trump and I am not particularly interested in whom exactly is going to be the next USA President. But I find quite abnormal and interesting (astrologically, psychologically, semiotically) the phenomenon of the over-demonization of the current American President).</i><br />
<br />
There are people who almost every single day are writing comments demonizing the current American President Trump. And since there are on Facebook so many Americans doing daily this <i>"demonization ritual"</i> they are ever more building it up! The demonization is ever more escalating and has reached by now an irrational "Μiddle Αges" - "which hunt" kind of level! We are seeing in the making the phenomenon that Eckhart Tolle described as a <i>"destructive unconscious hive-mind"</i> (when people are continuously and unceasingly demonizing a specific individual or a specific group of people).<br />
<br />
Take for example this comment that I recently saw on Facebook:<br />
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------<br />
<br />
<span style="color: #b45f06;"><i><span>""Paternitia: "Carmen Johns~</span></i><br />
<i><span>- ""We are in the clutches of a skilled psychopath. It is very difficult for people to really grasp what that means. They believe he is a human being, but he is not.</span></i><i><span>.</span></i><br />
<i><span>- And so he gets away with everything, because he turns being treated as a human being to his reptile advantage—in ways even the worst of actual human beings would never even consider doing.</span></i><br /><i><span>- He is not there because of an election, and he will not be gone because of an election. Think of what it took to dislodge Hitler. *That* is the ballpark we are in.</span></i><i><span>.</span></i><br />
<i><span>- That is why even the most radical solutions prove fruitless. Snakes are adept at slithering away, to reappear and again strike unexpectedly, releasing their deadly venom with every strike.</span></i><br /><i><span>- Only other snakes are immune from this. It’s a kind of 'professional courtesy' among psychopaths. Why? because protecting one makes the grazing easier for all of them.</span></i><i><span>.</span></i><br />
<i><span>- We’re not used to it. As a nation, we are being terrorized every day by a leader who hates people, his country, and all that lives.</span></i></span></div><div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on"><i><span style="color: #b45f06;">- That is his nature and he is faithful to it—and always will be. And that is nearly impossible for most of us to accept.</span></i></div><div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on"><i><span style="color: #b45f06;">- Why? because it goes against the basic premise of our own humanity—which, pointedly, he neither shares nor really even understands.</span></i></div><div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on"><span style="color: #b45f06;"><i><span>- The only difference is, He knows he is not the same kind of creature we are ... and we, for the most part, do not.</span></i></span></div><div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on">
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------<br />
<br />
This is clearly an <i>"unconscious hive-mind" </i>product! Probably millions of such irrational statements are frantically written on Facebook every day, by American citizens. So, it's not anymore about "the vote" (people could simply go and vote against Trump and that would be the end of it)! It's mostly about the collective "shadow" projection! <b>People are addicted by now to the habit of releasing their inner tensions by daily lashing out on their current president!</b><br />
<br />
To that aim, the <i>"polarization"</i> mechanism is useful too: <i>"we the Democrats are fighting against the "monstrous" Republicans"</i> - and the other way around! You see, political, ethnic, sexual, etc <i>"polarizations"</i> have their psychological perks, and often people resort to them in order to release their own inner tensions!<br />
<br />
Last but not least, diminishing an authority figure (publicly calling him/her names like <i>"dumpster",</i> <i>"cheeto"</i> etc. - as the American citizens are calling now their President) has been a secret, inhibited wish of ours, ever since we were kids! Needless to say that <b><i>"ridiculing authority figures without suffering any consequences"</i></b> <b>is releasing a lot of inner tension</b> - and that's the third time that we are witnessing this <i>"release inner tension"</i> mechanism! It's more than obvious that <i>"demonizing"</i> a specific authority figure - or a "different" group of people - is utterly <i>"therapeutic"</i> to the masses!<br />
<br />
As far as I remember, never in history such a massive over-demonization phenomenon (like the one that is currently taking place in the USA) has ever occurred! Blame it on the "Capricorn Climax"...<br />

<a href="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-x1CJ7Kq_XZM/Xm1uiHDVVfI/AAAAAAAAJ4M/MxaGf78QuqE6_kn9KzVfJUkVdnE6lTrKgCLcBGAsYHQ/s1600/city%2Blethal.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1066" data-original-width="1600" height="266" src="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-x1CJ7Kq_XZM/Xm1uiHDVVfI/AAAAAAAAJ4M/MxaGf78QuqE6_kn9KzVfJUkVdnE6lTrKgCLcBGAsYHQ/s400/city%2Blethal.jpg" width="400" /></a></div>
<br />
Our entire planet is living now some unprecedented and even nightmarish situations, with this deadly coronavirus pandemic that has stormed upon us! Most of us are experiencing situations that no human (except for the few aware epidemiologists and Astrologers) would ever expect to live! Especially in the western world, no generation before us has lived something like this (except of course the two world wars - which did not cause the collapse of societies in the Americas). And if we put aside the so-called "Spanish Flu" (which more or less coincided with World War I), the <i>"movie" </i>that is playing now before our very eyes has not been played for thousands of years (the 1347 CE<i> "black death"</i> had not affected, again, the American continent, Australia, etc.)!<br />
<br />
Although humankind is technologically advanced by now, it has proved to be rather <i>"flimsy"</i> in front of the coronavirus threat - and so far unable to produce a drug that can neutralize it! The only countermeasure (prevention - not treatment) left to us is to stay indoors (as if we were doomed to <i>"home restriction"</i>)! If we kept congregating in public spaces, in crowded halls, stadiums, cafes, gyms, cinemas, public means of transport, etc. then we would be mourning an exponential number of victims!<br />
<br />
Therefore, a simple, everyday move, like opening the door of our home in order to go somewhere, is now equivalent (especially if we are not in our first youth) to playing the <i>"Russian roulette"</i>(wondering each time <i>"will I catch the coronavirus in the environment I am going to?")</i>! Our home's door has been transformed into a vital <i>"membrane"</i>, as it holds out of our house the specter of death, which is wafting now across our societies, across the cities we live in!<br />
<br />

Actually, our <i>"public"</i> and <i>"private" </i>lives meet right on the central door of our home! Outside our door lies the bustling society, our work, our obligations, the<i> "others"</i>.<i> </i>Behind it lies the sacred <i>"cradle" </i>of our personal lives, the embrace and warmth of our family, the soothing smell of <i>"home sweet home"</i>! If we put this in astrological terms we could say that outside the door of our house are lying those situations that correspond to the zodiac sign of Capricorn, while inside that door the situations that correspond to the zodiac sign of Cancer! Having this knowledge, we can better understand now why we are experiencing such an abnormal and disturbing phenomenon!<br />
<br />
<br />
In 2011 we experienced another crucial planetary shift: planet Neptune entered the sign of the Pisces, its natural <i>"home"</i>! In astrological literature, Neptune in Pisces is - in itself - a classic indication of epidemics or even pandemics! If we combine his energies with those of Pluto in Capricorn then the <i>"scene" </i>begins to get heavier (this very astrological combination was in force, as well, at the terrible Justinian plague of 541 CE)! <br />

</tbody></table>
By the time we reached 2020, the momentous event of the <i>"Capricorn Climax"</i> - for which Astrologers (with capital A) had been preparing us for years - took hold! To understand the power of this phenomenon, think of it as having a<i> "double-whammy" </i>character! Which means that two events of a similar nature and power occurred simultaneously, mutually reinforcing each other: on one side Pluto is in the zodiac sign of Capricorn and on the other side Saturn (the planet that rules the Capricorn) is now very close to Pluto, forming a powerful <i>"conjunction"</i> with him! The combination of these two <i>"vibrationally"</i> similar events eventually created an <i>"overdrive"</i> that released colossal energies! Some<i> "dark"</i> and <i>"chthonic"</i> energies of the <i>"underworld" </i>have been summoned upon our cities and societies!<br />
<br />
This <i>"pluto-capricornian"</i> tsunami of energies has caused astrologically this unheard of and largely nightmarish situation that we are experiencing now. The deadly coronavirus penetrated and disrupted our societies, our governments and social structures collapsed loudly, the commerce and the economy knelt down, the majority of the people have been locked in their homes and are confined as if they were prisoners! All these <i>"exotic" </i>events are clearly linked to the epochal phenomenon of the <i>"Capricorn Climax"</i>, which is omnipotent nowadays!<br />
<br />
And to explain this in more detail, Saturn's presence in Capricorn speaks for itself of <i>"difficulties", "deprivations"</i> and <i>"limitations"</i>. If we put on the stage Pluto as well, then these deprivations and limitations acquire an extreme character - insofar as people's psychology is undermined and pushed to the limits! We are seeing now in dismay, right in front of our eyes, the societies that we used to know collapsing and being radically altered (due to the <i>"double-whammy" </i>element I mentioned above)! And in this <i>"mutually reinforced"</i> hurricane, Mars' presence in Capricorn caused additional panic and brought the army to the streets of our cities (as in Italy). At the same time, Jupiter in Capricorn disproportionally magnified all these phenomena!<br />
<br />
As you know, coronavirus does not particularly harm young people. But it is extremely threatening for the elder ones, as most fatal cases occur to those ages. We could say that this is also the result of the <i>"double-whammy"</i> presence of the planet Pluto (whose one of its basic "keywords" is death) in the zodiac sign of Capricorn (traditionally associated with the so-called <i>"third age"</i>!). In addition, the current pandemic has forced us to focus on something that is extremely tiny but nevertheless omnipotent! An invisible enemy has infiltrated our societies and is shooting us from all over the places, with us being incapable of shooting back! Our fear thus becomes even greater! All this <i>"scenery"</i> is clearly linked (even to a <i>"rookie" </i>in astrology) to Pluto in Capricorn (and to the <i>"accompanying"</i> Saturn-Pluto conjunction, as well)!<br />
<br />
Pluto, however, is not a <i>"bad"</i> planet (no astrological element is <i>"bad"</i>. Everything works for our evolution). But since Pluto is a powerful <i>"collective"</i> planet, the fate of the individuals is not of particular concern to him. He only cares about <b>the survival and evolution of the humankind</b>, on a "collective" level (and regardless of the eventual <i>"collateral losses"</i> - as our personal stories are quite indifferent to him)!<br />
<br />
In this respect, Pluto may produce a major <i>"cleansing"</i> and <i>"regeneration"</i> of the humankind! In an extremely cruel and inhumane way, though! Ask yourself, what continent is the hardest hit right now by the coronavirus? It is not Asia, because there (especially in China) is somehow subsiding. Europe is the hardest hit, which has the most aging population on the planet! Do you understand what I mean? Coronavirus is deadly especially for the elderly or even for those younger people who have serious health problems! So in its own, very cruel and inhumane <i>("plutonian") </i>way the coronavirus is now producing (if we look at it under a different perspective) a <i>"cleansing"</i> and <i>"invigoration"</i> of the very population of the European continent!<br />

<br />
Ten years ago, Greece was making headlines all over the world! You most probably remember why. For the first time ever, a European Union country was facing a sovereign debt crisis and there was a tangible risk of it going totally bankrupt! Not only that but (due to the so-called domino effect) the economies of many other countries in Europe (and even worldwide) seemed to be at risk because of the very Greek debt crisis!<br />
<br />
That was quite odd! How could a minuscule economy like the Greek one affect the gigantic markets of our planet? <b>How could Greece be responsible for the overall course of the international economy?</b> I had the feeling that something was amiss there. Thus, I resorted to astrology in order to better grasp what was going on. I had extensively studied the national horoscope of Greece and I knew that this Mediterranean country was just coming under the grips of both Pluto and Eris! And the theme of Greece facing a sovereign debt crisis that could potentially trigger crises all over the planet resonated perfectly with the vibrations of these two planets/ planetoids (the very word "crisis" is a plutonian keyword)! The fact is though that since Pluto and Eris are two transcendental, "esoteric" planets /planetoids, under their influence things are not always as they seem to be! Usually, they are much deeper, extensive and fatal than they appear to be! <br />
<br />
As you know, an epoch-changing assembly of planets will take place in 2020 within the zodiac sign of Capricorn! It's such a rare phenomenon that Astrologers have been talking about it for decades. They even coined a special term for it <i>"the 2020 Capricorn Climax"</i>! What you most probably don't know is that <b>Greece has been for the last ten years in an ever-escalating head-on collision with the Capricorn Climax phenomenon! </b>You see, Greece's Sun is located (according to its National Horoscope) at 22 degrees Capricorn, at the very degree where the notorious Saturn - Pluto partile conjunction will take place on January 12, 2020! Additionally, Eris has been forming a tight square aspect to Greece's Sun (and a tight conjunction to its Jupiter - Saturn), for many years now!<br />
<br />
I have to explain something here: there is a controversy in Greece over this country's National Horoscope. The fact is though that the Greek astrological scene is totally controlled by a "circuit" of mostly commercial, lucrative astrologers, who have deliberately set aside and marginalized many worthy Greek astrologers - just because they are not their "bedfellows"! You may read my relative article <a href="https://science-astrology.blogspot.com/2019/09/we-deserve-better-astrology-in-greece.html" target="_blank">here</a>). This "domineering circuit" (with ample access to the media) is rather unexaminably claiming that Greece is ("solarly") ruled by the sign of Aquarius!<br />
<br />
On the other hand, I am the only astrologer in Greece stating the obvious, that modern Greece is ruled by the sign of Capricorn (you may read a relative study <a href="http://astro.getforum.org/modern-greece-s-natal-chart-t466.html" target="_blank">here</a>). And I have my good reasons for stating this because, as it goes, the Greek "fathers" declared our independence from the Ottoman Turks on January 13th, 1822, NS <span class="tlid-translation translation" lang="en"><span class="tlid-translation translation" lang="en">(a momentous event, as the Turks had militarily occupied Greece for 400 whole years</span>)! </span></div>
<br />
<span class="tlid-translation translation" lang="en">Fortunately, this rather parochial view of the greek astrologers on their country's chart is not shared by the international community. Foremost astrologers worldwide (OPA's president Maurice Fernandez and Mayo's principal Wendy Stacey, among others) are considering the January 13th, 1822 chart as the National Horoscope of modern Greece. </span><br />
<br />
<span class="tlid-translation translation" lang="en">But let me show you now the National Horoscope of modern Greece (based on the declaration of Greece's independence, on January 1st, 1822 - Julian Calendar): </span><br />

<span class="tlid-translation translation" lang="en">You can clearly see that modern Greece's Sun is located at the critical (in our days) 22nd degree of Capricorn (where Saturn and Pluto are about to form a partile conjunction). Furthermore, the Jupiter - Saturn tight conjunction in Greece's chart is forming a square aspect to the notorious Saturn - Pluto conjunction, occurring in our days! Not to mention that the recent December 26, 2019, Solar Eclipse took place right over the Uranus - Neptune tight conjunction, in Greece's chart. Maybe you realize now the catalytic effect of the January 12th Capricorn Climax phenomenon over Greece's National Horoscope. If not, then you should take a look at the bi-wheel chart below: </span><br />

<span class="tlid-translation translation" lang="en">The intensity of the Capricorn Climax phenomenon over Greece's chart becomes visually obvious here. On the upper left, the transiting planets Sun, Saturn, Pluto and Mercury are all conjuncting Greece's natal Sun (while at the same time they are squaring its Jupiter - Saturn duet).

<br />
<span class="tlid-translation translation" lang="en"><span class="tlid-translation translation" lang="en">Back in the '90s, </span>when I first noticed the current </span><span class="tlid-translation translation" lang="en"><span class="tlid-translation translation" lang="en">colossal planetary influences </span>over Greece's </span><span class="tlid-translation translation" lang="en"><span class="tlid-translation translation" lang="en">chart (especially fateful Pluto transiting over its natal Sun, for the very first time in modern Greece's history)</span> I got really worried.

We cannot, of course, exclude such type of events when Pluto is aspecting critical points in a country's chart. The fact is though that Pluto is a tricky planet and it has in store mysterious ways of manifesting its properties! </span><br />

<br />
<span class="tlid-translation translation" lang="en"><span class="tlid-translation translation" lang="en"><span class="tlid-translation translation" lang="en"><span class="tlid-translation translation" lang="en">How can we then determine, decode and interpret the full array of Pluto's influences over Greece's natal chart? Well, the archetypal realm of mythology is often a good start. </span></span><span class="tlid-translation translation" lang="en"><span class="tlid-translation translation" lang="en"><span class="tlid-translation translation" lang="en">In Greek mythology,</span> Pluto is the god of the underworld,</span></span><span class="tlid-translation translation" lang="en"><span class="tlid-translation translation" lang="en"><span class="tlid-translation translation" lang="en"><span class="tlid-translation translation" lang="en"> dwelling in the dark and gloomy kingdom of Hades. </span></span>Extrapolating from this, we may come to the conclusion that Pluto is a supremely powerful planet (being god-like). There is a twist though: to manifest the enormous power he possesses Pluto has to act </span></span><span class="tlid-translation translation" lang="en"><span class="tlid-translation translation" lang="en"><span class="tlid-translation translation" lang="en"><span class="tlid-translation translation" lang="en">covertly, </span></span>secretly, in a concealed manner, in the dark, somehow disguised or even resorting to underhand tactics! On the contrary, the more openly, overtly and explicitly Pluto acts, exposing himself to the <i>"light of the Sun"</i> (the domain of other gods), the more he is bound to break up - becoming ever less capable of manifesting his powers! </span></span><br />
<br />
<span class="tlid-translation translation" lang="en"><span class="tlid-translation translation" lang="en">If we add now to the above picture the fact that Pluto is the <i>"intruder" </i>and the <i>"usurper"</i> par excellence (do you remember how he quite unexpectedly intruded</span></span><span class="tlid-translation translation" lang="en"><span class="tlid-translation translation" lang="en">, emerging from beneath the earth, </span></span><span class="tlid-translation translation" lang="en"><span class="tlid-translation translation" lang="en"> the mother-daughter idyllic relation and in what a ferocious way he abducted Persephone?) then we begin to formulate an hypothesis on how Pluto might be influencing Greece. It is possible that this Mediterranean country is experiencing currently some form of ominous intrusion and abduction! Its sovereign rights might be in peril as there is the eventuality that some foreign mega-powers are trying to invisibly take over and control crucial parts of Greece! And as Pluto is the planet of death (and of resurrection - in some other realm or under a different form) <b>Greece might be going now through a profound death-rebirth process.</b> Its very core is rapidly decaying and is bound to either irrevocably die or be radically transformed! </span></span><br />

It is worth noting too that the so-called "Greek" banks (especially the four major ones) are no longer Greek since they are majority-owned by foreign interests!

There is another element that Pluto's influence on Greece's "Capricornian" Sun evoked. An element that had initially eluded me. As I explained above, Pluto is fond of the undifferentiated masses of humans (death is after all the great leveler. All the souls in Hades are equal, as no earthly form or title is differentiating them anymore). Thus, for Pluto a white, aristocratic man of say Christian belief is exactly the same as a humble origins dark-skinned, poor Muslim! Therefore,<b> mixing "different" kinds of people, "contaminating" the "purity" of societies, literally </b></span></span></span></span><span class="tlid-translation translation" lang="en"><span class="tlid-translation translation" lang="en"><span class="tlid-translation translation" lang="en"><span class="tlid-translation translation" lang="en"><b><span class="tlid-translation translation" lang="en"><span class="tlid-translation translation" lang="en"><span class="tlid-translation translation" lang="en"><span class="tlid-translation translation" lang="en">constitutes </span></span></span></span>a game for Pluto!</b> And the immediate consequence of this Pluto's attribute (remember, the planet is on Greece's Sun) is the massive influx of refugees - migrants into this historic country. Greece, although a small country, receives twice as many refugees / migrants than Spain does and almost six times more refugees - migrants than the six times more populous Italy </span></span></span></span><span class="tlid-translation translation" lang="en"><span class="tlid-translation translation" lang="en"><span class="tlid-translation translation" lang="en"><span class="tlid-translation translation" lang="en"><span class="tlid-translation translation" lang="en"><span class="tlid-translation translation" lang="en"><span class="tlid-translation translation" lang="en"><span class="tlid-translation translation" lang="en">(according to the 2019 statistics)</span></span></span></span>!<br />
<br />
This ultimately means that, in proportion to our populations,</span></span><span class="tlid-translation translation" lang="en"><span class="tlid-translation translation" lang="en"><span class="tlid-translation translation" lang="en"><span class="tlid-translation translation" lang="en"><b> we receive </b></span></span><b>in Greece ten times more refugees - immigrants than they receive in Spain and</b> <b>thirty-six times as much they receive in Italy!</b> Not twice or thrice as much but<b> thirty-six whole times as much!</b> Does this sound reasonable to you? Does this sound reasonable to anybody? </span></span><br />
<span class="tlid-translation translation" lang="en"><span class="tlid-translation translation" lang="en"><br />
</span></span><span class="tlid-translation translation" lang="en"><span class="tlid-translation translation" lang="en"><span class="tlid-translation translation" lang="en">Why do other European countries control, restrict or even bar refugees - migrants? Do these countries know something critical that the Greek citizens are not aware of? I agree that we have to show humanism and help those people who are truly persecuted and in danger. But the refugees - migrants are mainly coming to Greece from Turkey, which is NOT a war zone! So they are not in immediate danger. Rumors say that some people are inciting them to come over to Greece with some financial lure, benefits etc. It worries me also the fact that it does not seem to be any serious program of resettlement or repatriation of these refugees - migrants. They look as if they came to permanently stay in Greece - the poorest country in Western Europe, with the highest unemployment! Who benefits from this situation? Who are the true beneficiaries of this massive influx of refugees - migrants in Greece?<br /></span></span></span></span></span><br />

To conclude, the great "Capricorn Climax" of 2020 (which is in its own a rare and powerful astrological phenomenon) has had a fatal, decisive impact upon the National Horoscope of Greece.

<br />
To some of you, this Frank Zappa's saying might seem just the mumbling of a stoned rocker. In reality, though, it is a profound and insightful statement, brilliantly explaining in just a few words the very essence of modern politics! <br />
<br />
You see, politics is so complicated! But everything becomes crystal clear if we apply this Zappa's saying to it! Modern presidents are some sort of entertainers! Take Trump for example. Trump seems to be but the colorful host of the entertainment division of the all-mighty military-industrial complex! Apparently, his job is to amuse us, to distract us, so that big "industra" can easily make good money!<br />
<br />
Presidents have always been this sort of "entertainers"! They were always serving the interests of the mighty parties but this didn't show in the past, no citizen would believe that their President is a rather shady guy, which is serving the interests of the mighty parties at the expense of the people! But now, with Pluto in Capricorn, this is becoming ever more obvious! Everybody can see that the king is naked!<br />
<br />
The reality is that the previous presidents were not worse than Trump. Bush senior and junior, Clinton, Obama, all of them officially endorsed the slaughtering of millions of innocent people in Iraq, Serbia, Libya, Afghanistan, Syria, etc. so that big "industra" make good money! Some of them were even shadier than Trump! But none of them was daemonized to the extent Trump has been!<br />
<br />
You see, a new kind of consciousness is emerging now, in our era that is strongly reverberating to the Pluto in Capricorn tone! Everybody can see that the President is "naked" but they cannot figure out what exactly is wrong with him...They sense the incongruency, the "wrong vibes" coming out of the president but they think there is something wrong exclusively with him, that he might be a sociopath, a lunatic, behaving and acting the way he does!<br />
<br />
To grasp what is really going on you need to hold on for a moment, pan out and realize that you were focusing so far on the host of the entertainment division of the military-industrial complex, missing the big picture! And that you were wrongly blaming the entertainment division host for the ills of the entire military-industrial complex!<br />

<br />
Many of us, who are stating that astrology is our main subject of interest on Facebook, have been bombarded in the last few weeks by an "ad" that was calling us to enrol in the <b><i>"Alternative Education"</i></b> astrology "school" (<b><i>"Enallaktiki Paideia" </i></b>in Greek ). I wanted to write a review of this "school" but I waited for the enrolments to be completed first, so that my criticism wouldn't be considered a malicious one. Now that they have been completed, I can more freely express my opinion.<br />
<br />
The <i>"Alternative Education"</i> Astrology "school" caused a lot of fuss in Greece in April 2017, when it appeared on many TV news stories as the first astrology "school" ever in Greece, a "school" recognized by the Greek Ministry of Education! Many people who watched the specific news story were excited, hearing that a recognized astrology school has been established in Greece, providing official <i>"astrology diplomas"</i>! It seemed like brand new horizons were opening up for astrology in this mediterranean country. And that's odd because till recently Greece was a rather backward country, when we were coming down to astrology.<br />
<br />
Personally, I have been dreaming for many years now the creation and establishment in Greece of an academic level Astrology School - and I have incessantly worked on a collective level to realize this vision - alongwith the one of a national Greek Astrological entity (association etc.)! So I would be one of the first persons in Greece to celebrate the establishment of a<b> true</b> Astrology School! I am stressing the word "true" because somebody can relatively easy create a <i>"sort of astrology school"</i> but in order to create an actual astrology school many terms and conditions must be fulfilled first. So let's see if these conditions are met in the case of the <i>"Alternative Education" </i>center.<br />
<br />
First of all - as you can see in the photo below of the <i>"Alternative Education's"</i> identity (you may click on it) - we are not dealing here with an academic type of "school" but with a <i>"Lifelong Learning Center"</i> - "LLC" or "ΚΔΒΜ" in Greek! There is a big difference between these two entities!<br />
<br />

<br />
<br />
I wonder why the directors of "Alternative Education" display the actual status of their center with just its initials ("ΚΔΒΜ" in Greek, meaning "Lifelong Learning Center" - "LLC" !) Is it because they are ashamed to state publicly that theirs actually is a simple - NON academic - "LLC"? Or because they prefer to give to the public the impression that their center is a recognized by the Greek Ministry of Education "school" - without actually being it? If the latter applies then they mislead the public!<br />
<br />
To give a hypothetical example, we could create a "Lifelong Learning Center" for knitting! At this center the art and the secrets of knitting would be explained. Secrets that ultimately our grandmother might hold much better than the rest of us. So our grandmother could lead a knitting section to a similar "LLC". But in no case she could become a "teacher" in an academic school, if she did't meet first a whole bunch of prerequisites!<br />
<br />
Let's go to the second element that I have highlighted above in the identity of <i>"Enallaktiki Paideia"!</i> In the element stating that this "school" is composed of <i>"distinguished astrologers, with extensive experience in Astrology teaching"!</i> If we believe this claim then we must admit that "Alternative Education" has been staffed by foremost "teachers" of Astrology!<br />
<br />
In reality though, there is no easy way to become a TEACHER! And not just in Astrology but in any field. Actually, in Greece we do not even have many worthy Astrologers (our country ranks among the last in the West in Astrology Education, Astrology Research, etc.). So how did we suddenly get in Greece so many important Astrology teachers?<br />
<br />
The concept "teacher" carries a lot of weight! Being a teacher of Astrology means that you are literally a mobile encyclopedia, in terms of Astrological Knowledge! That you are knowledgeable on any Astrology branch, on any aspect of Astrology, no matter how small and trivial it might seem! That you also have knowledge of many different fields and subjects, such as Psychology, History, Politics, etc. That you are an integral person, with Principles and Ethics! These are the elements that constitute a true Astrology teacher!<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
</div>
<br />
From my part, though, I've never read a book, original astrological articles, or some kind of research by the majority of the "Alternative Education" employees who are claiming to be foremost Astrology teachers! And I am a man who reads a lot and peruses the publications of Greek astrologers of all kinds <span class="tlid-translation translation" lang="en">(I don't read </span><span class="tlid-translation translation" lang="en"><span class="tlid-translation translation" lang="en">of course </span>the trivial weekly predictions, the Mercury retrograde hysteria etc. because I don't think that such "bubble-gum" kind of articles are worthwhile - nor they automatically render you an Astrology "teacher").<br />
<br />But let's go into some more specific details and take for example the case of Mrs Nona Voudouri. As she writes in her resume (and as you can see in the picture below) Ms. Voudouri has been working as an astrology teacher</span><span class="tlid-translation translation" lang="en"><span class="tlid-translation translation" lang="en"> at the <i>"Alternative Education"</i> LLC. </span>since 2018 ! She even mentions that she took lessons in this very "school". The point is that the "Alternative Education" center was founded in April 2017! Which ultimately means that in just a few months, Ms Voudouri has turned from a mere astrology student into an astrology teacher! We're talking here about things that are not serious at all! </span><br />

<span class="tlid-translation translation" lang="en"><br />
</span><br />
<span class="tlid-translation translation" lang="en"><br />Finally, let's look at the third statement that I have underlined on the "identity" of the <i>"Alternative Education"</i> center. The statement saying that this particular</span><span class="tlid-translation translation" lang="en">"LLC" <i>"will employ </i></span><span class="tlid-translation translation" lang="en"><i><span class="tlid-translation translation" lang="en"><i>as teachers </i></span>the most important Greek Astrologers "</i>! Since I am an old hand at the various vicissitudes of the Greek astrology scene I can assure you that the <i>"Alternative Education"</i> has actually done the opposite: it employed none of the people who are the truly leading Greek Astrologers (you can see my relative article <a href="https://science-astrology.blogspot.com/2019/09/we-deserve-better-astrology-in-greece.html" target="_blank">here</a>)! I mean people like Nicholas Kampanes, Konstantine Stefanou, Yianni Symeonoglou (unfortunately he passed away early in 2019, with the bitterness in his heart that his work will never reach the wider public). Despite its "fanfare" statements, </span>the <i>"Alternative Education"</i> did not employ any of these three foremost Astrologers, which are among the few in Greece that meet the prerequisites of a proper Astrology teacher!

<br />
<br />
Societies thrive when their most deserving members are promoted to higher positions. On the other hand, societies that routinely promote their less deserving members, the "well-connected, mediocre," are doomed to deteriorate and degenerate!<br />
<br />
The pattern of "well-connected, mediocre" persons assuming prominent positions is more or less widespread around the world. However, the very nature of mature societies provides enough opportunity for recognition for many of their deserving individuals! I don't believe there is another civilized country in the world that supports "well-connected, mediocre" people to such an extent (at the expense of the worthy) as modern Greece!
<br />
<br />
The persons who currently dominate the Greek astrological scene (and who are portrayed in public as the "leading ones") are nothing more than golden mediocrities (despite promoting a quite different picture of themselves). Some of them even claim to be the best astrologers in the world!). They are not "top astrologers" in any manner. <br /><br />You see, it is not someone's appearances on TV or Internet portals, or the support s/he receives from various "circuits" that is ultimately distinguishing him/her as a great astrologer. Quality work, inspirational books, innovative articles, rigorous research, and high ethical standards are what distinguishes a top astrologer! And none of the people in charge of modern Greek astrology now meet such standards. Moreover, those who truly meet such standards are - quite ironically - totally marginilized!
<br />
<br />
Few Greeks are aware, for example, that the late <b>Yianni Symeonoglou</b> was a prominent contemporary Greek astrologer! Symeonoglou was primarily responsible for introducing and developing "Systemic Astrology" in Greece! He published two thought-provoking books ("The Times and Seasons of the Invisible - Astrology" and "Beyond the Astrology You Know"). He was set to release his third, momentous book when he died unexpectedly in early 2019. </div><div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on"><br /></div><div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on">Despite his preference for "scientific" astrology, Symeonoglou was not reluctant to borrow material from metaphysics and esoteric knowledge, particularly Orphic and Pythagorean teachings. He uncovered several new dimensions of the Moon's Nodes, which he interpreted in novel ways! And yet, the "circuit" that dominates the Greek astrological scene has never displayed his work, nor honored him to the least! They never gave him the chance to interact with the public, never invited him to their presentations and seminars (maybe because they were worried that their "poverty" would be exposed if challenged by Symeonoglou's wealth of knowledge)!
<br />
<br /><div dir="ltr" trbidi="on">As a result, Symeonoglou was deliberately marginilized by the dominant astrological circuit and he was slowly transformed into a picturesque figure! The man who is considered one of the foremost Greek astrologers in reality lived as an insignificant astrologer - and died bitterly disappointed that his rich and creative work would stay unknown to the Greek public!</div><div><br /></div><div dir="ltr" trbidi="on"><b>Nicholas Kampanes</b> and <b>Konstantine Stefanou</b> are two other important figures in modern Greek astrology! Kampanes is a knowledgeable renaissance kind of astrologer! Aside from Astrology, he has studied Philosophy, Theosophy, Metaphysics, Literature, and other subjects! He has written two wonderful volumes that enrich the Greek Astrological literature ("Astrological Institutio" and "Astrology in the Light of Science")! Konstantine Stefanou, the other Astrologer, has built a distinct and robust work on asteroids and so-called "harmonics" - while opening new routes on the "quantistic" component of Astrology (frequently making references to esoteric knowledge)!</div><br /><div dir="ltr" trbidi="on">As one may expect, the dominant Greek astrological circuit has never granted these people a step! Thus, international caliber Greek astrologers are purposefully "buried" in this mediterranean country, and they end up being labeled <i>"inexistent"</i> or <i>"marginal picturesque"</i> figures, at best!</div><div><br /></div><div dir="ltr" trbidi="on">I could name three or four other brilliant Greek astrologers who remain mostly unknown to the general public. However, I believe that the three aforementioned are the most significant ones! It is an embarrassment to all of us (in Greece) who love Astrology (the true one, with a capital A) that these people have not yet been recognized and honored, that they have not yet been accredited for their original, pioneering, monumental work that could enrich all Greek (and possibly foreign) Astrology students and researchers!</div><div><br /></div><div dir="ltr" trbidi="on">Regrettably, the Greek public (which is "under-cultured" in Astrology. Names like Dane Rudhyar, Robert Hand, and Richard Tarnas are largely unknown in Greece), believes some well-connected people to be the foremost Greek Astrologers! At the same time, the above-mentioned astrological <i>"beacons"</i> are absolutely unknown. And because these Astrologers have not been recognized and honored - as a result of their <i>"blacklisting"</i> and deliberate silencing from the dominant circuit - the public regards them (despite their enormous astrological magnitude) as some picturesque, marginalized figures...</div><div><br /></div><div dir="ltr" trbidi="on">But this is harmful to all of us because Greek Astrology is lagging behind! Under the current circumstances, the "bar" is regularly lowered to serve the interests of some rather unscrupulous individuals. It's like entering into a desolate wasteland with no lights on. It's no accident that current Greek astrology ranks low in the world astrological scene!</div><div><br /></div>
Consider that we are in 2019 and there is still no national Astrological entity (association, federation) in Greece! There are a couple of <i>"private astrology clubs"</i> (that's what they are in reality), claiming to be <i>"genuine Pan-Hellenic astrological entities"</i> but that's not the case at all. A pan-Hellenic Astrological entity should be created by (first and foremost) an open invitation to all interested parties, to all Greek astrologers (and not simply to members of the "circuit"). And secondly, by instituting open, democratic processes that are free of secrecy and covertness.</div><div><br /><div>An astrological entity should be established not only to protect the interests of Greek astrologers, but also to wholesomely elevate Greek astrology, to raise the "bar" and bring as much quality and morality to our heavenly art as possible! Furthermore, in order to organize regular talks, lectures, and conferences (even international ones) throughout Greece, events that will promote the work and research of the BEST Greek Astrologers, rather than those privileged ones belonging to "circuits"! Such an astrological entity would pave the way for younger, more talented Astrologers to walk in!</div><div><br /><br /> <span style="font-family: helvetica;"> </span><b style="font-family: helvetica; font-size: x-large;"> </b><span style="font-family: verdana; font-size: medium;">Two contentious issues</span></div>
<br />The first contentious issue concerns Greece's national horoscope. The Greek astrological establishment as a whole believes that Greece is under the influence of the (solar) sign of Aquarius. A rigorous investigation, however, has confirmed that Greece is ruled by the sign of Capricorn (you may read about it <a href="https://greekastrologer.com/2015/01/20/modern-greeces-national-horoscope/" target="_blank">here</a>). And there are leading astrologers on a global scale who have published articles on Greece, such as Maurice Fernandez (president of the OPA, the organization of professional astrologers of America) and Wendy Stacey (director of the Mayo School of Astrology), who all base the Greek national horoscope on the Greek Declaration of Independence from the Ottoman Turks (January 1, 1822 OS).<br /><br />The truth is that the Greek "establishment" astrologers, who have been spreading the myth that Greece is an Aquarian country for decades, do not want to be seen as admitting they were wrong the entire time! So they continue to pretend that Greece is ruled by the sign of Aquarius, even though they know it isn't!<div><br /></div>
<div>Another concern is that two Greek astrologers from the "establishment" were recently convicted to 6 months in prison (by a Greek National Court)! They were insulting, slandering, bullying, and even threatening one of their Greek colleagues (you may see the relative post <a href="https://greekastrologer.com/2016/04/02/greek-astrologers-sentenced-to-6-months-of-jail-for-insulting-and-libelling-thomas-gazis/" target="_blank">here</a>).</div>
<br /><div>You'd think that prominent members of the Greek astrological community would criticize these two dishonest astrologers. However, they did not! The Greek astrological "establishment" artificially suppressed their condemnation and wholeheartedly backed them - on the grounds of <i>"these are our own people"</i>! As a result, their conviction was not publicized anywhere, and all references to it were purposefully suppressed. Such a thing could never happen in a civilized society!</div><div><br /></div><div>Do we really deserve this kind of astrology? We get the politicians we deserve, and similarly we get the astrology (and astrologers) we deserve! But how many of us truly desire the "low energy" astrology that is popular in Greece today? Don't we all want a sophisticated, advanced, and enlightening Astrology? Don't we want the worthy, decent type of Astrologers to enlighten and inspire us? Because, in the end, the shape of Astrology in Greece in the coming years is entirely dependent on what we, the astrology's aficionados, truly desire!</div><div><br /></div><div>Overall, a society that fails to provide attention to its finest people but instead allows the <i>"connected mediocre ones"</i> to dominate is suffocating its most important energies and hence condemned to decay, losing ever more its splendor and vigor....</div><div><br /></div>Thomas Gazis<br />

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://3.bp.blogspot.com/-pJNT0L1X0nY/XH-8P8NcT8I/AAAAAAAAIrk/V_4sZ1EjYnIEI0EcM1vEztm4tAwbmR9zQCLcBGAs/s1600/Fake%2BID.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="266" data-original-width="375" height="226" src="https://3.bp.blogspot.com/-pJNT0L1X0nY/XH-8P8NcT8I/AAAAAAAAIrk/V_4sZ1EjYnIEI0EcM1vEztm4tAwbmR9zQCLcBGAs/s320/Fake%2BID.png" width="320" /></a></div>
<br />
<br />
Just a couple of hours ago planet Uranus left the sign of Aries and entered Taurus (definitely this time)! We all know that when we come down to Uranus we should expect the "unexpected"! Thus, it's not easy to predict the situations and events it will bring about on a collective level, during its seven years stay in Taurus.<br />
<br />
It's far easier to study Uranus' effects in hindsight. And I personally think that one of the "themes" that Uranus brought about, during its stay in Aries (from 2010/11 on), was the <i>"BETTER ME VIRTUAL SELF"! </i><br />
<br />
Take Facebook for example. It is full of "Fake accounts" (hundreds of millions)! Full of fake ID's, fake avatar photoes etc. The same goes for the other Internet social media. I always considered this an interesting subject. Why do people need to create fake accounts? Is it because they want to con their fellow humans? Or is there another need, lurking behind this massive phenomenon?<br />
<br />
Undoubtedly there are many fake accounts out there, created by rather malicious people with the sole purpose to conceal their true identity and con (in any possible way) their fellow humans. But most of the hundreds of millions of the fake accounts were created for a totally different reason, a reason perfectly mirroring the energy of Uranus in Aries!<br />
<br />
You see, <b>for the first time ever in the history of humanity, people had the chance to create on Internet a better virtual version of themselves!</b> <span data-offset-key="2sp76-0-0"><span data-text="true">A <i>"Virtual Self"</i> that would be prettier, taller, thinner, richer, younger (if the user was elder), a grown up (if the user was an adolescent) etc. And we are talking here about hundreds of millions of rather genuine people, who created a fake account with no malicious intent to con their fellow humans. Of plain people who just took advantage of the never experienced before, fascinating possibilities the internet was opening up to them! <br /><br />The core desire of these people was simply to experiment, to become a kind of <i>"glamorous Cybernauts"</i> and see then how it feels to get into </span></span><span data-offset-key="2sp76-0-0"><span data-text="true"><span data-offset-key="2sp76-0-0"><span data-text="true">a virtual social environment </span></span>and interact anew with the people around them - presenting them an "enhanced" version of themselves! </span></span><br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://4.bp.blogspot.com/-tPvIpeUtQnI/XH_zDKN76aI/AAAAAAAAIsE/x5Mt50AqDWoS4Gm4TI31eslcZVD_j-logCLcBGAs/s1600/awareness%2Bmaxresdefault.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="720" data-original-width="1280" height="180" src="https://4.bp.blogspot.com/-tPvIpeUtQnI/XH_zDKN76aI/AAAAAAAAIsE/x5Mt50AqDWoS4Gm4TI31eslcZVD_j-logCLcBGAs/s320/awareness%2Bmaxresdefault.jpg" width="320" /></a></div>
<br />
<div class="" data-block="true" data-editor="3si46" data-offset-key="afuo8-0-0">
<div class="_1mf _1mj" data-offset-key="afuo8-0-0">
<span data-offset-key="afuo8-0-0"><span data-text="true">Some may see this as a scam. But if we change our point of view we realize that this might be a liberating experience for many! Remember, Uranus is an ultra liberating planet! And actually, that was one of the jobs of Uranus in Aries: to liberate us from our usual, somehow burdening, imperfect Selves, so that we </span></span>become "lighter" and then unhinderedly<span data-offset-key="afuo8-0-0"><span data-text="true"> interact with our fellow humans </span></span><span data-offset-key="afuo8-0-0"><span data-text="true"><span data-offset-key="afuo8-0-0"><span data-text="true">as pure MINDS (without the usual drawbacks and inhibitions that our "physical Self" is imposing on us)</span></span>!</span></span></div>
</div>
<br />
Of course, Uranus in Taurus will scrutinize all this and consequently many fake accounts will be removed! And then many people will loose the thrill of cybernauting with their <i>"Better Selves"</i> the various virtual social environments. You see, Taurus brings things "down to earth" and makes them specific, tangible and somehow "heavy"! More "secure" though...<br />

<br />
The friends of the "Babel Astro-Scholar evenings" are very happy to host next Tuesday (via internet) the world-leading Astrologer (with a capital "A") <b>Richard Tarnas</b>!<br />
<br />
Richard Tarnas is a professor of philosophy and cultural history at the California Institute of Integral Studies in San Francisco, where he founded the graduate program in Philosophy, Cosmology, and Consciousness. He also lectures on archetypal studies and depth psychology at Pacifica Graduate Institute in Santa Barbara, and is on the Board of Governors of the C. G. Jung Institute of San Francisco. A graduate of Harvard University and Saybrook Institute, he is the author of The Passion of the Western Mind and Cosmos and Psyche: An Intimation of a New World View. His “World Transits 2000-2020: An Overview,” focused especially on the years 2008-12, can be read at www.Archaijournal.org.<br />
<br />

<i>""I believe that the astonishingly consistent and nuanced reality of the planetary correlations with the archetypal dynamics of human life is one of the most compelling intimations we have that we live in a meaning-laden and purposeful universe — a cosmos that is coherent with our deepest spiritual and moral aspirations. Recognition of these correlations can help us to become more consciously co-creative participants in a cosmic unfolding. All of this points to yet another level of archetypal understanding: what Plato would call the Idea of the Good informing the cosmos, what Hegel would call the World Spirit realizing itself through history, and what Jung might describe as the Self archetype operating within the collective evolution of humankind itself.</i></div>

<i>Much like a life-changing spiritual awakening produced by a powerful synchronicity, it is possible that a collective encounter with the growing body of rigorously researched and skillfully presented astrological correlations could help to awaken the modern mind from its disenchanted cosmological condition. Astrology could then serve as a great catalyst of humanity’s evolution of consciousness at this pivotal moment in our history, reframing the larger Copernican revolution as part of a long, birth-panged initiation of humanity and the Earth into the larger cosmic community of being. In this sense, astrology itself might be seen mythically as a form of Promethean fire bestowed from the heavens, helping to liberate humankind from the collapsing modern matrix it has clearly outgrown.""</i></div>

As most of you know, we are currently under the spell of the notorious "Capricorn climax". Of a kind of "massive planetary turbulence" that is getting ever more stronger and that will influence our world even more intensely in the next two years (2019 - 2020)! Apart though from this "Capricorn climax", which is setting the general tone of our times, we are additionally experiencing this summer some unusual celestial phenomena that are showering Earth with extra cosmic "energies"!<br />
<br />
<a name='more'></a><br />
One of these phenomena is planet <b>Mars</b> that in the last few weeks <b>has (visibly) become huge in our skies</b>, UNUSUALLY BIG in respect to its average look! There is nothing abnormal or metaphysical there. Due to its eccentric course, sometimes Mars comes much closer to Earth and looks bigger than usual. Quite rarely though it gets as close and it appears as big as now! It happened back in 2003, when the red planet came as close to Earth as it has never been in the last 60.000 years! And now we are experiencing the red planet's second closest approach to Earth, in our times! You may see below an image comparing Mars' relative magnitude on January 1st, 2018 (on the left) in respect to the one of July 31st, 2018 (on the right), when according to the astronomers it will reach its maximum magnitude:<br />

Undoubtedly Mars is the predominant body in our skies this summer, appearing like a reddish, flaming spot on the firmament! It is so bright that it is even surpassing giant Jupiter in brightness! Back in the summer of 2003 (when Mars was equally bright) Europe was scorched by unprecedented heatwaves and temperatures exceeding 40 degrees Celsius, causing hundreds of deaths! This summer we are already experiencing similar high temperatures in northern Europe, Canada, Japan etc. <br />
<br />
The second unusual phenomenon that I would like to mention has probably gone unnoticed by the astrological community but I personally consider it important: planet <b>Pluto</b> that is now <b>"aligning" for the first time after 87 whole years with the plane of our Solar System </b>(you may see below Pluto's "oblique" orbit in purple)!<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://4.bp.blogspot.com/-MW7MkrB91B0/W3kvJUSU42I/AAAAAAAAIDw/Ow3x4X11cOE9xjjuSh961EaPt-Bv5IFxQCLcBGAs/s1600/Pluto%2Baligning%2Bwith%2Bour%2BSolar%2BSystem%2527s%2Bplane%2B-%2BA.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="455" data-original-width="739" height="246" src="https://4.bp.blogspot.com/-MW7MkrB91B0/W3kvJUSU42I/AAAAAAAAIDw/Ow3x4X11cOE9xjjuSh961EaPt-Bv5IFxQCLcBGAs/s400/Pluto%2Baligning%2Bwith%2Bour%2BSolar%2BSystem%2527s%2Bplane%2B-%2BA.jpg" width="400" /></a></div>
<br />
Pluto (which as you see above is moving eccentrically in respect to the rest of our Solar System) is about to intersect in a few days (on July 12, as some astronomers claim) the "plane" of our Solar System (where our Earth and more or less the rest of the planets are sitting on). This cosmic "intersection" will occur now, for the first time after 87 whole years, at Pluto's South Node (look at the caption "Pluto in 2018", on the image above). From that date on, the "god of the underworld" will begin to move below the level of the Ecliptic. The last time Pluto's orbit intersected the plane of our Solar System was in 1931 - while its next orbital intersection will occur in 161 years (in 2179 CE).<br />
<br />
In addition, this summer we are about to experience a triad of eclipses (which are particularly significant to my own country, Greece. Thus, I will mainly focus my study here on how Greece will be influenced by the current eclipses)! <br />
<br />
<br />
<b> <span style="color: #990000;"><span style="font-size: large;">The triad of the summer eclipses!</span></span></b><br />
<br />
<span class="tlid-translation translation">The relatively rare "triad" of the upcoming summer eclipses seems to be crucial for Greece. T</span>he last time a similar set of eclipses <b>(solar - lunar - solar)</b> occurred was in <b>2011</b>, when a massive wave of demonstrations of the so called "indignant" citizens was shaking Athens! Other periods during which similar "summer triads" of eclipses occurred in the recent past were the year <b>2000</b> (when the Greeks experienced the precipitous fall of the their Stock Exchange, when the Greece - EEC Monetary Union took place, when the ferry boat "Express Samaina" was tragically sinked). Further back in the past, the year <b>1982</b> (when PASOK, a socialist party, won for the first time ever the Greek elections and when Athens was living the aftermath of the deadly "Alkyonides" earthquake).<br />
<br />
Another similar triad of eclipses had occurred in 1971, at the height of the totalitarianism of the military junta that was ruling back then Greece (with thousands of people sent by the regime to prison or exile). The "cradle of democracy" was totally isolated then from the rest of the world, as most countries were condemning the regime of the colonels, denying any kind of formal exchange with Greece. And there is another element connecting us to 1971: that was the immediately previous time that planet <b>Mars</b> was <b>retrograding </b>in the sign of <b>Aquarius</b> (exactly as it is currently doing).<br />
<br />
<br />
<span class="tlid-translation translation"> <b><span style="color: #990000;">The Partial Solar Eclipse of July 13th </span></b> </span><br />
<br />
<span class="tlid-translation translation">Let's start with the Solar Eclipse that will occur next Friday, July 13 (see its chart below, set for the coordinates of Athens, Greece). It is taking place </span><span class="tlid-translation translation"><span class="tlid-translation translation">at the 20th degree of Cancer and <b>it is tightly opposing</b> (in a perfect, "partile" aspect) <b>the deeply transformative and even fatal </b>we may say planet <b>Pluto</b>! That's something we should take in serious consideration! </span></span><br />
<br />
<span class="tlid-translation translation"><span class="tlid-translation translation">In addition, this eclipse will occur under a "Super-Moon" condition (meaning that the Moon during the eclipse will be located in one of its closest points to Earth, in its elliptic orbit around it). So, this "Super-Moon" is somehow adding stamina to the entire eclipse!</span></span><br />

<a href="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-Hp99vdfvVLw/W3mHUwt-_8I/AAAAAAAAIEA/yWPwnBPh0C42vULLiEkpSOrB6EOrlNdlQCLcBGAs/s1600/Solar%2BEclipse%2B%2BJuly%2B13%2B-%2BLoose%2Bstar%2Bof%2BDavid%2Bpattern%2B-%2BA.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="770" data-original-width="842" height="292" src="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-Hp99vdfvVLw/W3mHUwt-_8I/AAAAAAAAIEA/yWPwnBPh0C42vULLiEkpSOrB6EOrlNdlQCLcBGAs/s320/Solar%2BEclipse%2B%2BJuly%2B13%2B-%2BLoose%2Bstar%2Bof%2BDavid%2Bpattern%2B-%2BA.jpg" width="320" /></a></div>
<span class="tlid-translation translation"><span class="tlid-translation translation">Regarding Greece, this Solar Eclipse is triggering the axis of the First and Seventh Houses (in the eclipse's chart)</span><span class="tlid-translation translation">. </span>Moreover, the "Lights" (Sun - Moon) of the eclipse are opposing the Sun of Greece (located at 22 degrees Capricorn, in its "national horoscope")! </span><br />
<br />
<span class="tlid-translation translation">If you look at the chart of the eclipse and notice the blue lines (that stand for <i>"harmonic planetary aspects"</i>) you will realize that a loose "star of David"pattern is formed in it! This particular pattern is interconnecting planets that are either in signs of Earth or of Water, in feminine signs that is! In fact, at the time of the eclipse, the only planets located in masculine signs are Mercury in Leo and Mars in Aquarius! Undoubtedly the feminine energy will play a leading role now! And since this loose "star of David" formation is somehow opening up invisible "cosmic gates", interconnecting different places and situations, we should be both prudent now and ready to seize any opportunity unexpectedly presented to us (when major "cosmic trines" - like the ones prevailing in this Eclipse - are formed the flow of the energies becomes smoother and prolific). </span><br />
<br />
<span class="tlid-translation translation">We shouldn't forget though that eclipses often create instability and fickleness. Thus, on the one hand, we will be given </span><span class="tlid-translation translation"><span class="tlid-translation translation">now </span>opportunities to raise and evolve! On the other hand though, any eventual downhills will become very slippery now and if we behave hastily or superficially we may experience a major fall - or even catastrophic events! </span><br />
<br />
<span class="tlid-translation translation">Since this eclipse is "falling" in the "First House" (of the chart set for Athens) it becomes critical to Greece, as <b>it is apparently challenging its own identity!</b> It has somehow to do with its very existence and independence. Apparently, some major challenges are undermining now the vital potential of Greece and its "personality" and "identity" seem to be in jeopardy! It is urgent therefore for this country to confront any challenges, to dynamically stand out - casting away any eventual elements restraining it - and display its full potential and stature! </span><br />
<br />
<span class="tlid-translation translation">The <b>overwhelmingly "cancerian" element of this eclipse</b> (for the geographic co-ordinates of Greece) and the diametrically opposing to its "Lights" </span><span class="tlid-translation translation"><span class="tlid-translation translation">planet Pluto</span> are constituting in my opinion an absolutely critical conjuncture, which is profoundly affecting the roots and the very hearths of the Greeks! These elements might trigger some kind of "uprooting" and an overall "identity crisis"! Undoubtedly, the Greeks need to be united and very vigilant now! They should act dynamically in order to overcome adversities and claim back their "hearths", their history and tradition! </span><br />

<span class="tlid-translation translation"> <span style="color: #990000;"><b> The Lunar Eclipse of July 27th</b></span></span><br />
<br />
On July 27, the second eclipse will occur. It will be a Lunar one (see its chart below). We are talking here about a powerful lunar eclipse that will last longer than any other lunar eclipse in the entire 21st century (for almost 4 whole hours an ominous reddish Moon will be transiting through the shadow of Earth)!<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
It is an eclipse that will occur on a critical axis (on the very first degrees of Leo and Aquarius) that is directly linked to the Sun in Greece's "post-junta" chart (on the very first degrees of Leo). In addition, this axis is strongly influencing the chart of the (leonine) Greek Prime Minister Alexis Tsipras!<br />
<br />
The outlook of this eclipse seems quite explosive, as the Moon will be forming then a conjunction with the fiery and bellicose planet Mars (visibly aggrandized in our days) and a square aspect with the subversive planet Uranus!<br />
<br />
<br />
<span style="color: #990000;"><b>The annular Solar Eclipse of August 11th</b></span> <br />
<br />
The third (and last) eclipse of this summer's triad is the annular Solar one that will occur on August 11th (see its chart below. It is cast for the coordinates of Athens, Greece). <b>This particular eclipse is somehow echoing the "apocalyptic" eclipse </b><b>of August 11th, 1999</b>, which preceded the deadly earthquake of Athens (it will occur at exactly the same degree - Leo's 18th - and will bear the very same Ascendant: Scorpio!) I'm not implying here that there will definitely be a major earthquake again. I am merely emphasizing the fact that this eclipse has a special symbolic meaning for the people of Greece. It may not literally cause an earthquake, but it may trigger some kind of "earthquake scale events" in this Mediterranean country.<br />
<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://2.bp.blogspot.com/-9O7CBzAOzQ0/W3mZJho2uvI/AAAAAAAAIEM/zhcc9R947u08ecaaFgX7BZQv1X9x43D9ACLcBGAs/s1600/Solar%2BEclipse%2BAugust%2B11%2B2018%2B-%2BA.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="768" data-original-width="874" height="351" src="https://2.bp.blogspot.com/-9O7CBzAOzQ0/W3mZJho2uvI/AAAAAAAAIEM/zhcc9R947u08ecaaFgX7BZQv1X9x43D9ACLcBGAs/s400/Solar%2BEclipse%2BAugust%2B11%2B2018%2B-%2BA.jpg" width="400" /></a></div>
We may realize how important this eclipse is to Greece by simply noticing the fact that its "Lights" (Sun - Moon) are located almost at the highest point of the chart, in the Tenth House! This is a crucial element, somehow stating that Greece is about to stand out in some way, it might distinguish itself publicly (or it might get exposed)! But we cannot be sure when exactly, because the effects of a Solar Eclipse might extend to several months before and after the very date of the eclipse! In any case, major shifts will take place now in relation to the "backbone" of Greece, to the infrastructures of this country, to its "administrative trunk" and its government!<br />
<br />
Eclipses signal the ending of old cycles and the beginning of new ones. They emit torrential "energies", speeding up procedures that would otherwise take much longer to complete. Therefore, <b>we may soon see radical changes in the Greek government or major developments regarding the international "image" of Greece.</b><br />
<br />
Similar conclusions are stemming out from the fact that the Ascendant of the eclipse's chart is the deeply transforming and fatal Scorpio. The planet that rules Scorpio is Pluto, which is currently intersecting the plane of our Solar System. Furthermore, Pluto is forming now a quincunx aspect (150 degrees) with the "Lights" of the eclipse (Sun - Moon). This aspect speaks of an intense backdrop, of some critical but invisible processes taking now place behind the "scenes". There is a need now for a profound adjustment in our lives, for a radical overhaul of our everyday reality.<br />
<br />
Moreover, planet Mercury is in conjunction with the "Lights" of the eclipse, triggering a climate of instability, mutation and change. Mercury will bring to the fore issues of interconnection and coordination, issues related to travel, communications and trade. It will affect institutions and organizations having to do with younger people and teenagers in particular.<br />
<br />
On an astronomical level now, the solar eclipse of August 11th, 2018 belongs to the "Saros" series number 155. <b>That's a rather "fresh" Saros series, having its starting point in 1928.</b> That specific year was a <b>landmark to modern Greek history</b>. Prime Minister Venizelos secured back then some major war compensations from Germany, thanks to which he financed a series of gargantuan public works that radically transformed Greece! On the other hand, in 1928 Greece was territorially "amputated", as it was forced to concede two of its major islands (Imvros and Tenedos) to Turkey.<br />
<br />
Since this eclipse is taking place in a Fire sign like Leo (an extremely "ardent" one) and is combined with the overwhelming presence of planet Mars in our skies (with Mars currently appearing blazingly reddish and humongous) the August 11th eclipse is likely to trigger unusually high temperatures, prolonged heatwaves or unprecedented wildfires.<br />

<br />
Eclipses are not "per se" something bad. So, the "gran Americana" August 21, 2017 Solar eclipse won't necessarily break all hell loose on the USA . The lights will somehow turn off and then on big time, restarting the system anew...<br />
<br />
<a name='more'></a><br />
What strikes me though is the path of this eclipse...It comes over from the Pacific ocean (portending some major Asian event reverberating in the USA?) and then it inters<span class="text_exposed_show">ects the American continent right over its most deadly/fragile north-west seashore (as the geologists/ seismologists recently discovered): the Cascadia subduction zone (which is estimated to produce in the immediate future a 9 Richter scale mega-earthquake)!</span><br />
<br />
<div class="text_exposed_show">
That's not all though...As the eclipse's path moves deeper within the American continent it is somehow crossing the wider area of the Yellowstone park (where one of the deadliest super-volcanoes on earth is lying), the New Madrid fault (near St. Louis, a fault that produced an almost 8 Richter scale quake in 1811. This is the area of the eclipse's greatest duration). Finally, the path is exiting the USA right over its south-eastern states, which are prone to major hurricanes. And then the eclipse's path proceeds to the Atlantic Ocean, to the north of the so called Bermuda triangle...<br />
<br />
It's not in my intentions to be an alarmist, nor a harbinger of bad events. I am just stressing here the fact that the path of this "Americana" eclipse is by coincidence passing through the most fragile geologically / meteorologically areas of the USA.<br />

<br />
The Zodiac has always been a conundrum to me! It is the "gran nexus" of Astrology but we know next to nothing about it! We are fairly sure (us, the Astrologers) that it exists, but if somebody asks us "Where exactly is the Zodiac lying?" we will be left rather clueless...You see, we don't really know! What we know is that the Zodiac is some kind of "belt"! A non-magnetic belt obviously, because if it were one it would have been detected by now. And if it is not a magnetic belt then what is it made from (since there aren't many alternatives)? And ultimately, where exactly is this belt? Is it over our heads, over our highest mountain, up in the stratosphere, in the near-Earth space, somewhere within the distant space or simply everywhere?<br />
<br />
<a name='more'></a><br />
For the last couple of decades I've been giving lectures trying to explain to the public the profound mystery of the Zodiac (why is it so perfectly geometrical, why is it cyclical and twelve-fold with each sign comprising exactly 30 degrees, how could possibly exist such a perfectly geometrical structure up there on the sky, what is the Zodiac made of etc.). In those lectures, I was usually relying on Plato's theory of the "solids" and especially on the famous "Dodecahedron" to offer an explanation. That was my very best shot back then but still, I could not make the ends meet! Little did I know though that very soon science itself would somehow justify both Plato and Astrology!<br />
<br />
I am a sort of science nerd, so I am reading almost every scientific article I am laying my hands on. A couple of days ago I was browsing the "wired.com" site in the hope of finding interesting astronomy articles when I stumbled upon an article on a relatively new theory called the <i><b>"conformal symmetry of time-space"</b></i>! I was immediately flabbergasted by this theory, which is sustaining that there is an inherent geometrical pattern hidden deep within the fabric of time-space! And in this actually "polyhedral" pattern might lie the secret mechanism that makes Astrology tick!<br />
<br />
You may read the article <a href="https://www.wired.com/2017/03/radical-vision-universe-returns-electrify-physics/" target="_blank">here</a> <br />
<br />
Let me quote an excerpt of interest:<br />
<br />
<i>"The discovery was so unexpected that (researcher)Polyakov initially didn’t believe it. His suspicion, shared by others, was that “maybe this happens because there is some hidden symmetry that we didn’t find yet.”</i><br />
<i><br /></i> <i>Everyone is excited because these kinks are unexpected and interesting, and they tell you where interesting theories live,” said Nima Arkani-Hamed, a professor of physics at the Institute for Advanced Study. “It could be reflecting a polyhedral structure of the space of allowed conformal field theories, with interesting theories living not in the interior or some random place, but living at the corners.”</i><br />
<br />
Science has advanced so much lately that has reached some rather weird and even paranormal fields...And contrary to the expectations of the skeptics, the more science advances the closer it comes to Astrology, ever more justifying it! The exciting discovery of the "polyhedral symmetry fields" that are lurking within the fabric of time-space might soon lead us to the longed-for scientific explanation of why and how Astrology works!<br />

<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://2.bp.blogspot.com/-GczM_xAZcdI/WJNb1B5Q_GI/AAAAAAAAEDU/jnQVBOjHWuIb3g6BK-2XQ7DVF1rzkncaQCLcB/s1600/donald-trump-met-melania-at-a-party-in-1998.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="300" src="https://2.bp.blogspot.com/-GczM_xAZcdI/WJNb1B5Q_GI/AAAAAAAAEDU/jnQVBOjHWuIb3g6BK-2XQ7DVF1rzkncaQCLcB/s400/donald-trump-met-melania-at-a-party-in-1998.jpg" width="400" /></a></div>
<br />
Although I am a sort of "synastry-holic" guy, the idea of studying Donald Trump's and Melania's synastry was never particularly appealing to me. As most people, I was seeing in these two an unscrupulous businessman and an avid "gold-digger". So, to me there wasn't interesting stuff there. Not to mention the fact that nobody seemed to know Melania's time of birth, meaning that an eventual synastric study of theirs would be rather incomplete. But things have changed and Donald Trump is now the elected president of the United States while his wife Melania the First Lady! A synastric study of theirs seems more appealing than ever.<br />
<br />
<a name='more'></a><br />
Let's take a quick look at their natal charts. Donald has a versatile Gemini Sun, while his Moon resides in the fiery and expansive sign of Sagittarius. His Ascendant is in the regal sign of Leo (although in the very last degree of it)! Donald was born during a Lunar Eclipse (and probably this has to do with his peculiar, "obscure" relation to women at large). <br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://2.bp.blogspot.com/-t3wmtN0oEjA/WJNpoqs8_ZI/AAAAAAAAEDg/RlQLBjCfp9kX7revUK--yTcxecN5whtIwCLcB/s1600/Donald%2BTrump%2Bnatal%2Bchart.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="251" src="https://2.bp.blogspot.com/-t3wmtN0oEjA/WJNpoqs8_ZI/AAAAAAAAEDg/RlQLBjCfp9kX7revUK--yTcxecN5whtIwCLcB/s400/Donald%2BTrump%2Bnatal%2Bchart.png" width="400" /></a></div>
<br />
Let's move on to Melania now. We are still lacking her verified time of birth so we don't actually know her Ascendant nor the "domification" of her planets (thus there are no Houses in her chart - the one you see bellow - while the reported time of birth is a conventional one). In such a case we are obliged to focus mainly on the zodiacal signs of the "Lights" (Sun and Moon). But even there the lack of Melania's verified time of birth produces a controversy, because if she were born before 1:27 am (Slovenia time) she would then have a Sagittarius Moon (the same as Donald's). But if she were born after 1:27 am she would have a Capricorn Moon - and that would make all the difference!<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://3.bp.blogspot.com/-5MHFM1lo3tU/WJNy0fJ_szI/AAAAAAAAEDs/XiJl4Z-FbZ89JuGhK7v3FFb5KbmRgoWagCLcB/s1600/Melania%2BTrump%2B-%2Bno%2BHouses.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="251" src="https://3.bp.blogspot.com/-5MHFM1lo3tU/WJNy0fJ_szI/AAAAAAAAEDs/XiJl4Z-FbZ89JuGhK7v3FFb5KbmRgoWagCLcB/s400/Melania%2BTrump%2B-%2Bno%2BHouses.png" width="400" /></a></div>
<br />
If both Donald and Melania have a Sagittarius Moon then you can see the power of their synastry right in front of your eyes! When two people share the same Moon - in the same sign and in conjunction - they feel a deep, visceral sense of "community"! A rich emotional flux is developed among them and a profound "comprehension" of each other. And although the time frame for this to occur is relatively small (00:00 to 01:27 am) there is a strong probability that Melania was indeed born within that specific time frame. Mathematically though the odds are against it and she might very well have been born after 1:27 am - having thus a Capricorn Moon. In that eventuality things would change drastically - both for Melania and for their relationship. You see, Melania would then have a Taurus Sun and a Capricorn Moon, an extremely earthy and realistic combination, prone to materialism and social climbing (especially if the individual is attuned to the "lower frequencies" of the Taurus - Capricorn combo) ! <br />
<br />
Well, to many of you that might sound a lot like Melania but to a Synastry connoisseur the striking fact (with this Capricorn Moon scenario) is that Melania's chart bears no astrological affinity to Donald's chart! Her "Lights" are too earthy and "feminine" (Sun in Taurus, Moon in Capricorn) while his "Lights" are "airy-fiery" and both "masculine" (Sun in Gemini and Moon in Sagittarius). There is no common astrological ground among them. Actually, their two charts not only do not bear any substantial resemblance but in addition they are not compatible! Here is the "bi-wheel' of their Synastry (the inner chart is Donald's and the outer one is Melania's).<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://2.bp.blogspot.com/-6v6m3Xaz7vY/WJOChaPl5SI/AAAAAAAAED4/suqxmgovQN8fTMCu84V85FWUFxKhWS81QCLcB/s1600/Donald%2527s%2B%2526%2BMelania%2527s%2BTrump%2BSynastry.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="251" src="https://2.bp.blogspot.com/-6v6m3Xaz7vY/WJOChaPl5SI/AAAAAAAAED4/suqxmgovQN8fTMCu84V85FWUFxKhWS81QCLcB/s400/Donald%2527s%2B%2526%2BMelania%2527s%2BTrump%2BSynastry.png" width="400" /></a></div>
<br />
So, what's going on with the Donald - Melania Trump relationship? Is theirs an arranged match, a mere marriage of convenience? Because under an astrological point of view the two do not seem to be very compatible. Well, that's not entirely true, as there are at play here some astrological elements that are rather invisible at first sight but crucial in the long run. I have developed a theory on this, calling these "difficult to spot" but crucial elements <b>"Latent Synastric Elements"</b> (LA.S.E. in abbreviation, you may read the gist of that theory in my article <a href="http://sasstrology.com/2012/06/latent-synastric-elements-the-secret-fuel-of-life.html" target="_blank"><i>"Latent Synastric Elements: The secret fuel of love"</i></a> , at the "Sasstrology" website). <br />
<br />
As you know, the Sun in a woman's horoscope is telling us a lot about the type of the masculine figure she is mostly attracted to. In Melania's case her Sun forms a conjunction to her Saturn, thus her ideal man should be an authoritative, socially recognized and probably older than her figure. Trump actually represents all these traits. Furthermore, Melania's Sun - Saturn conjunction bears a strong affinity to Donald's Sun in the Tenth House (since that House is traditionally harboring Saturnian values)! <br />
<br />
In addition, Melania's Sun forms an opposition to her Jupiter, thus her ideal man should have some Jupiterian traits too (he should be exuberant, optimistic, larger than life and "rich" - figuratively or literally speaking). And Donald is Jupiterian alright, since one of his "Lights" (his Moon) is in Sagittarius (the sign ruled by Jupiter), while his Sun is forming a trine aspect to his Jupiter! <br />
<br />
What is striking here is the fact that in Donald's chart his Venus (a pivotal planet in love affairs, indicating the attributes of our ideal partner) is replicating almost identically the planetary aspects of Melania's Sun (his Venus is conjuncting his Saturn and is forming a challenging aspect to his Jupiter)! His Venus replicating her Sun's planetary aspects, that should definitely be accounted as a latent synastric element! <br />
<br />
Another important LA.S.E. in this relationship stems out from the fact that Melania's Sun in Taurus is synastrically "falling" in Donald's Ninth House. As we saw before, Donald is very Jupiterian (his Sun is trining his Jupiter and his Moon resides in Sagittarius). But with this Ninth House domification Melania (although a rigid Taurus) somehow acquires Sagittarian traits when interacting with Donald! And this he definitely loves, because Melania is ever aggrandizing him, she is ever lifting him up, making him see the brighter side of life! And she might be even learning him a couple of things - while she definitely makes him laugh...<br />
<br />

<br />
Actually, as we delve deeper in their Synastry we realize that Melania is the "stabilizer", the soothing and "grounding" force in their relationship! And Donald needs a lot of "grounding" for sure, having both his "Lights" in mutable signs. And Melania is complementing him in other ways too. Surprisingly, Donald's Moon resides in a very emotional, tender, family orientated sector of his chart (in his Fourth House). In that sector the Moon is much dignified. But there is another side to it, as the Fourth House Moon might often become ultra sensitive and touchy. If Melania has a Capricorn Moon she is to a certain extent complementing and strengthening that sensitive side of Donald Trump (the Fourth House and the sign of Capricorn being somehow two complementary areas of a horoscope). And the First Lady does that even more so if we take in consideration the fact that her Venus and Mars are synastrically falling in Donald's Tenth House (meaning that she becomes even more Capricornian when standing by his side, when interacting with him)! <br />
<br />
We already mentioned that planet Venus is of paramount importance in love affairs. Melania's Venus is conjuncting her Mercury, meaning that her ideal partner should have some "mercurian" traits, he should be witty, versatile, communicative. One part of her craves for a mercurian partner and guess what, Donald definitely is one (as he belongs to the sign of Gemini, ruled by Mercury). <br />
<br />
Another part of Melania craves for a Martian partner (because her Venus is forming a conjunction to her Mars, as well). And since his early childhood Donald has been the martian type of guy (his Mars in conjuncting his Leonian Ascendant - allegedly he was feared by many of his school mates). Even more so, Melania craves specifically for a martian <b>Gemini</b> type of man (as her Mars resides in the sign of Gemini). Well, Donald absolutely fulfills that side of hers too! <br />
<br />
In Melania's chart, her Moon is interacting with Uranus (forming a square aspect). In Donald's chart, his Sun is interacting with Uranus (forming a conjunction). So they both have an "uranianized" "Light" (not by chance they got into politics). That uranian factor should be accounted as another "latent" synastric element!<br />
<br />
This isn't by no means a complete study of Donald's and Melania's synastry. They do have many interesting "explicit" synastric inter-aspects (like the ultra "merging", intense and powerful inter-aspects that Pluto is forming with their respective "Lights". Also, the romantic but probably "disillusioning" as well inter-aspects of Neptune with their Moon and Venus - and several others). That kind of stuff though pertains to a slightly different field (and an exhaustive synastric analysis should normally take something like 15 - 20 pages). In this article I just tried to give you a different synastric point of view on the Donald's - Melania's relationship, focusing mainly on their "latent" synastric elements,which although not very obvious are utterly conditioning the quality of a relationship!<br />

<br />
There is a very odd thing going on in the United States these days. The Americans are massively protesting against Donald Trump, the President that they themselves elected just a couple of months ago! They are marching all over the country, shouting some diminishing and degrading slogans against their head of State - and even publicly swearing at him (i.e. Madonna's case). Apparently the Americans have <i>"demonized" </i>their own president - before him taking office! To the eyes of a neutral, European observer (like the writer of this article) this seems to be a rather strange, abnormal situation...<br />
<a name='more'></a><br />
I was struck lately by some pictures like the one you see above, portraying President Trump as an ugly, obese pig! I am personally appalled by this specific picture but at the same time I realize that many Americans actually like it, they take some pleasure out of it! Since I have studied some psychology I wonder why people take pleasure out of such an appalling and degrading picture? And then I remembered what I had been taught in the psychology classes I attended, that <b>there is a deep-seated psychological mechanism in our souls called <i>"projection"</i>.</b> <br />
<br />
In my <i>"non-expert"</i> qualifiedness, I would define "projection" as <i>"a defence psychological mechanism through which we are attributing to somebody else / to others unwanted traits of our own self"</i>! Furthermore, there is a collective kind of projection as well, where many individuals are projecting disparate unwanted traits of themselves upon a specific individual, a specific ethnic or religious minority, etc.<br />
<br />
<a href="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-IPnlYBUBvzw/XwI9bxQ2eVI/AAAAAAAAKGo/cCvSmLnFhH4VmDECDgw3QuqW8kH32F4AACLcBGAsYHQ/s1600/190px-Eckhart_Tolle_front.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="287" data-original-width="190" height="200" src="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-IPnlYBUBvzw/XwI9bxQ2eVI/AAAAAAAAKGo/cCvSmLnFhH4VmDECDgw3QuqW8kH32F4AACLcBGAsYHQ/s200/190px-Eckhart_Tolle_front.jpg" width="132" /></a>In other words, <b>the more we harbor in ourselves unwanted traits, shortcomings, <i>"sins"</i> the more we feel the need to project those <i>"bad traits"</i> of ours upon somebody else</b> (be it the "right", the "left", Trump, Putin, the Mexicans, the Jews, it doesn't actually matter that much). And if we encounter other people attuned to that very same need of ours then we might join them and eventually start marching all together - and that will be a sort of <i>"cathartic"</i> experience to all the protesters! That <i>"catharsis"</i> though will not last for long, if the people marching together are not fighting for a true to every single individual cause but have fallen instead to the grips of the <i>"Unconscious Hive-Mind"</i> (as it is called by Eckhart Tolle)! If they haven't, that is, elected to participate in the march out of an <i>"unbiased free-thinking"</i> but they rather joined in because they needed to release their own inner tensions by shouting and protesting against a commonly demonized <i>"enemy"</i>! <br />
<br />
<br />
Don't get me wrong here, I am not <i>"en masse"</i> accusing the protesters nor am I on Trump's payroll. I didn't vote republican, I am not even an American citizen - and ultimately I don't even like the guy. <b>I am trying though to see the whole picture and make some (astrological) sense out of what I perceive as a rather absurd and irrational situation. </b>Because to me, it is like America has snapped in front of my eyes and turned against its own self! I have never witnessed that on such a colossal scale (and I can spot certain similarities between this current situation and the Civil War period)...<br />
<br />
As we saw before, <b>demonizing the others has its perks,</b> because it makes you feel better deep in your soul! And when you do that on a collective level you are summoning - astrologically speaking - Pluto! Because all this massive projection and <i>"shadow dancing"</i> is bearing some typically Plutonian hallmarks! So, there must be something going on with Pluto in America's <i>"National Horoscope"</i>! And guess what, indeed there is! <br />
<br />
You might be familiar with the chart you see below. It is the famous <i>"Sibly"</i> National Horoscope of the United States of America. <br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://2.bp.blogspot.com/-RllH5gRPOxM/WIZnTU4QUmI/AAAAAAAAD5s/avQZ3Zop6jkbdJsvxJpC-gL3-3_UF0pTQCLcB/s1600/USA%2BNational%2BHoroscope.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="251" src="https://2.bp.blogspot.com/-RllH5gRPOxM/WIZnTU4QUmI/AAAAAAAAD5s/avQZ3Zop6jkbdJsvxJpC-gL3-3_UF0pTQCLcB/s400/USA%2BNational%2BHoroscope.png" width="400" /></a></div>
<br />
As you probably know - and as you can see above - America is ruled by the sign of Cancer - its natal Sun being in that specific sign. In <i>"Mundane Astrology"</i> (the Astrology of Nations, of politics etc.) the Sun is traditionally representing the <i>"Head of the State"</i>! Henceforth Donald Trump in our case! <b>USA's natal Sun is located at the 14th degree of Cancer </b>and as you might have already heard, transiting Pluto is currently opposing for the first time ever in the history of the USA its natal Sun! That's a big event! And since Pluto is representing the masses, the collective <i>"shadow" </i>(and the <i>"irrational"</i> as well) it's no surprise that the masses are turning now against their own president! <br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://4.bp.blogspot.com/-UM5luJ50N2U/WIZng9uoJ6I/AAAAAAAAD5w/YpMkqW7xSXgwOiYI0u4Wqx5xofZJR-qwgCLcB/s1600/USA%2Btriwheel.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="251" src="https://4.bp.blogspot.com/-UM5luJ50N2U/WIZng9uoJ6I/AAAAAAAAD5w/YpMkqW7xSXgwOiYI0u4Wqx5xofZJR-qwgCLcB/s400/USA%2Btriwheel.png" width="400" /></a></div>
<br />
<br />
When Pluto is strongly aspecting the Sun of a country it is affecting its very core identity. It's not by chance that the American society has been permeated lately by an<i> "end of the times"</i>, sort of <i>"dying"</i> sensation, as Pluto has been opposing the country's natal Sun! And in a certain sense, the old America has been moribund for a long time now. The very American population is somehow altered as the Hispanic-Asian-Afroamerican citizens are about to outnumber the traditional Anglo-European ones. That's a huge transformation to a society! Additionally, the USA is not considered anymore the undisputed financial superpower they once were, as China is about to become the most powerful country in the world now. Industries are transported abroad, people are left without jobs, the middle class is ever more vanishing!<br />
<br />
As we know, Pluto is instigating fear, suspicion, and irrationality to the people (especially when adversely aspecting their country's natal Sun)! And irrationality is widespread now in the USA, as many people are claiming that the Russians rigged the elections! Nobody can explain thought how the Russians managed to do that, how they managed to override the mighty (especially after 9/11) US national security systems!<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-K6X_H1O7Ra0/XwJBCoRk_JI/AAAAAAAAKG0/7P7NrsiyQUQgminK0gIbcfdB2t13uggfACLcBGAsYHQ/s1600/confusion%2B960x0.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="640" data-original-width="960" height="266" src="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-K6X_H1O7Ra0/XwJBCoRk_JI/AAAAAAAAKG0/7P7NrsiyQUQgminK0gIbcfdB2t13uggfACLcBGAsYHQ/s400/confusion%2B960x0.jpg" width="400" /></a></div>
<br />
All in all, <b>Pluto has been opposing the natal Sun of the USA for (at least) the last seven years! </b>And it almost perfectly opposed (due to its retrogradation) the USA's Sun just before the recent presidential elections. There are some other factors that contributed to the current strange political situation as well: the USA's progressed Moon (representing the American people) has recently moved to USA's 12th House, a house representing the concept of <i>"self-undoing"</i>, <i>"the End of a major cycle"</i>! Also, sadness, impoverishment, and confusion!<br />
<br />
Furthermore, the aforementioned progressed Moon is currently squaring the USA's progressed Sun (and this particular configuration has been impressively enacted in the last few days with the massive women's marches (the Moon) against their Head of State (the Sun)! Transiting Neptune is also conjuncting the progressed USA's Sun, exacerbating the disillusionment, dissatisfaction and despair of the people! <br />
<br />
<b>When too much Pluto and too much Neptune are at play, things are not what they seem to be!</b> People cannot discern fiction from fact (blame it on the recent Saturn - Neptune square too), they are acting irrationally and out of fear, and ultimately they are easily manipulated and deceived! Not to mention that we are now under the auspices of the historical Uranus - Eris conjunction. Meaning that <i>"expiatory goats" </i>are urgently needed for the collective to dispose of its own <i>"sins" </i>and burdens. A paradoxical <i>"Quantistic</i>" spirit is prevailing in the global political scene, the polarities are blurred and it is ever harder to discern the <i>"good"</i> from the<i> "bad"</i> guy! Under the present <i>"Zeitgeist"</i> what we call <i>"the good politician" </i>might easily turn to be the bad one - and the other way around. Different as they might seem the two of them, they pretty much are the same!<br />

Superstar Yorgos Panayiotou (George Michael's true greek-cypriot name) left the earthy dimensions on the very Christmas day - ironically, as his "Last Christmas" super hit was torrentially playing and airing all over the planet - and vanished into the ethereal (that he so much longed to artistically reach)! <br />
<br />
<a name='more'></a><br />
His was an unexpected, untimed death that shocked the masses. So the average astrologer would normally search for some clamorous transits and progressions that "caused" Michael's death: say a transiting Pluto or the ruler of the Eighth House aspecting his "Lights", his progressed Moon located in his Eighth House or something in that line. But surprisingly s/he will find none of these! Regarding his transits and progressions, there is no major "death causing"configuration in George Michael's chart on the day of his death! That seems to be a major incongruence...So, is astrology wrong after all? No it's not! Our divine art is just outsmarting us once more!<br />
<br />
Let's start from the beginning. In my opinion, the most important planet in George Michael's chart is his Moon! Being a Cancer, his Moon is playing a very important role in his horoscope (the Moon is ruling the sign of Cancer). But his Ascendant is Cancer once more and this makes his Moon even more important, as it is now becoming the ruler of his entire horoscope! That's why he had such an easiness to communicate with the masses, to touch the souls of the people with his songs, to carry them away into a "sea of emotions". You may see Michael's natal chart below:<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://3.bp.blogspot.com/-xAjudf8VsLo/WGD_hanGCHI/AAAAAAAADig/cV2EK7NsE6sMtdF_-6lBXZk8wl0RzbY_wCLcB/s1600/George%2BMichael%2Bnatal.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="251" src="https://3.bp.blogspot.com/-xAjudf8VsLo/WGD_hanGCHI/AAAAAAAADig/cV2EK7NsE6sMtdF_-6lBXZk8wl0RzbY_wCLcB/s400/George%2BMichael%2Bnatal.png" width="400" /></a></div>
<br />
<br />
His chart attests to the fact that he was a very sensitive person, both because he had a "watery" Cancer Sun and because his Sun simultaneously fell in the "uber sensitive" 12th House of his chart (not to mention that his Mercury and his <b>Venus</b> were falling in that 12th House too)! Most probably, he was often feeling that he "did not belong", that he was a somehow secluded, misunderstood and essentially unloved individual. His otherwise aristocratic, artistic and well placed Moon (in Leo, in his 2nd House) was not helping him in that sense, because it is receiving a hard opposition aspect from the - often depressive - Saturn (as a matter of fact, he was diagnosed with depression!) Now we better understand why he was so often resorting to drugs, as he was seeking to cope with the pain and sorrow he was feeling inside. <br />
<br />
Let me show you now an oddity that occurred in Michael's chart the day he died. As we can see above, his pivotal natal Moon is located at the <b>20th</b> degree of Leo (actually, it is the 21st degree but never mind that). Let's put now in the scene his so called "tri-wheel" (his progressions and transits) for the moment of his demise:<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://4.bp.blogspot.com/-qhz4EnL8jn0/WGETw99Mv9I/AAAAAAAADiw/LyLi9uFONjcyjYilUbbJRIna_ALEJnKRgCLcB/s1600/George%2BMichael%2Bdeath%2BTriplex.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="251" src="https://4.bp.blogspot.com/-qhz4EnL8jn0/WGETw99Mv9I/AAAAAAAADiw/LyLi9uFONjcyjYilUbbJRIna_ALEJnKRgCLcB/s400/George%2BMichael%2Bdeath%2BTriplex.png" width="400" /></a></div>
<br />
<br />
The very inner chart represents George's natal chart. The chart in the middle represents his progressions for the moment of his death and the outer chart the transits for that very moment. Just look for a couple of minutes at this "tri-wheel", sweep it over if you can with your eyes. If you are a good observer you will notice that there are<b> six</b> more progressed/transiting planets located at the <b>20th</b> degree of their respective signs! <br />
<ol style="text-align: left;">
<li><i>Progressed Mercury at the 20th degree of Virgo </i></li>
<li><i>Transiting Jupiter at the 20th degree of Libra</i></li>
<li><i>Transiting Saturn at the 20th degree of Sagittarius</i></li>
<li><i>Transiting Venus at the 20th degree of Aquarius</i></li>
<li><i>Transiting Uranus at the 20th degree of Aries </i></li>
<li><i>Progressed Venus at the 20th degree of Leo - perfectly conjuncting his Moon!</i> </li>
</ol>
Now, that's quite a rarity! Six (progressed or transiting) planets located at the very same 20th degree (and we are not counting here the progressed planets Jupiter and Saturn, falling short of the 20th degree by just mere minutes of arc - nor the transiting Moon that might very well be close to the 20th degree Scorpio) definitely constitute a planetary "over-tuning"! And what is the focus of this "over-tuning" in Michael's chart? His natal Moon at the 20th degree of Leo of course! So, on the Christmas day of 2016 too much planetary energies were focused upon the superstar's vital Moon! Too much excitement for him, to say the least...<br />
<br />
But there is more to it. On that fatal day Michael's progressed <b>Venus</b> was perfectly conjuncting his Moon (in a partile aspect)! This seems to be a very sweet, docile conjunction (maybe he died in some quiet and serene manner). But in reality Venus is not that "docile" in the superstar's chart. You see, Venus is the ruler of the zodiacal sign of Taurus. But in George's chart the sign of Taurus is what we call <b>"intercepted"</b> (it is entirely comprised in the 11th House, with no House cusp crossing it). This denotes a deep rooted blockage and possibly an inherent inability of some kind! Scorpio is also intercepted, representing some sexual - intimacy blockage. According to Joanne Wickenberg (who developed the theory) the outlet for such blockages is provided by the so called "duplicated" signs (Leo and Aquarius in Michael's case, meaning that his outlets were creativity in general, the extravaganzas, the unconventional and unorthodox). <br />
<br />
What I am saying here is that in Michael's chart both Venus and Pluto are rulers of "intercepted signs" and as such might have some unusual attributes. This means that the partile conjunction of his progressed Venus to his natal Moon should not be interpreted just in the usual way but under some new, insightful perspective as well.<br />
<br />
Of course, if one over-scrutinizes Michael's "death tri-wheel" s/he will eventually find (there are many "all finding" astrologers) several "death configurations" in it (i.e. transiting Mars and North Node aspecting his deadly Uranus - Pluto duet - with Uranus being the ruler of his Eighth House. Progressed Saturn in the Eighth, transiting Uranus over his natal Jupiter or transiting Neptune opposing his natal Pluto or any near eclipse over his vital points). Well, these configurations might have their own merit but they are not giving us the full picture. Because ultimately the astrological study of George Michael's death grows to a study of the "over-tuning" of the planetary energies (regardless of the quality of the aspects they are forming) and to the study of the rather neglected theory of the so called "intercepted" and "duplicated" signs. The "all finding" astrologers might learn something out of it!<br />

There is something annoying about the "13 Signs" issue, which keeps popping up every now and then in the mainstream media. You see, over the last 25 years, I have been publishing articles that explain how the zodiacal signs are actually twelve and how they cannot be thirteen (or 14, 19, 27 or any other number, for that matter). I've now come to the conclusion that all of my attempts to explain have been futile because ever since the 13 Signs issue resurfaced recently (and made headlines for the umpteenth time) people all around me are rather acrimoniously asking me about it. </div><div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on"><br /></div><div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on">At first, I figured it would be best to ignore this problem in hopes that it will ultimately fizzle out - as it has in the past. However, it appears that this time things are different. Astrology is taking a "double whammy" hit that is mostly the result of misinformation, and it is essential for us, the true (cultured) astrologers, to step in!<br />
<a name='more'></a><br /></div><div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on">Fortunately or unfortunately, most individuals in my neighborhood are aware that I am interested in Astrology...So, in the last several days, I haven't been able to leave my house to go strolling or shopping without someone approaching me and confiding in me his/her confusion over the "thing." Yesterday, I went to my neighborhood kiosque to buy a magazine, and the kiosque guy (Stavro) told me, "You know Mr. Thomas, I am not a Leo anymore, I am actually a Cancer!" "That's nonsense, Stavro, you shouldn't pay attention to this stuff," I replied. "NASA isn't nonsense, Mr. Thomas," Stavro stated strongly. "Trust me, it is in this case," I informed him, and I walked away with the magazine but a thrill. <br />
<br />
Stavro was like the 100th perplexed about his sign person that I met this week. NASA had told him that he is not anymore the sign he knew he was. I told him that that's nonsense. But ultimately, it was NASA's reliability against mine. And I am obviously loosing there big time...How on earth can I explain to an average person (with no astronomical background), in just a couple of minutes that NASA is wrong?<br />

Apart from being an astrologer I am an amateur astronomer as well. I have several astronomy books in my bookshelves. And I have noticed that many of them are mentioning and even extensively elucidating the pivotal difference between a zodiacal sign and a constellation! Take for example the book “Astronomy” by James B. Keler (“Harpers Collins College” publisher - you may see its frontcover above). In page 52 of this book the author - who is a professor of astronomy - is stating:<br />

<i>“There is an important distinction to be made between the astrological <b>signs</b> of the zodiac and the astronomical <b>constellations</b> of the zodiac. The constellations are real star-groups that can be seen on any clear night. The signs are symbolic concepts that are locked to the vernal equinox. They were once aligned with the constellations, but no longer are because precession has moved them westward”!</i><br />
<br />
It would be logical to assume that if we are provided with such a degree of clarification over the sign/ constellation distinction in some popular astronomy book then this would be common knowledge to all the astronomers, a sort of a freshman's syllabus to them. But apparently it is not! To our utter astonishment even the prestigious NASA astronomers seem to ignore the most obvious and fundamental distinction between a zodiacal sign and a constellation (a distinction that apart from its astrological signification has an inherent astronomical value as well)! And lo and behold the all mighty NASA is now proclaiming that "the signs have shifted" and that "a new “sign” (Ophiuchus, which in reality is a constellation) has to be added in the zodiac"! Thus, according to NASA the zodiacal signs should be 13 from now on and not 12! But we know very well that NASA is talking about constellations and not signs and thus what it is proclaiming is not true at all! <br />
<br />
Think for a moment: how good an astronomer may be when s/he is not possessing even that elementary level of astronomical knowledge pertaining to his/her own freshman's syllabus? You see, it sounds absolutely preposterous for a prestigious astronomer not to be aware of the fundamental sign vs. constellation distinction! Because, in the end, it is the astronomers, not the astrologers, who have been utterly discredited over the 13th sign controversy!

<br />
Please dear astronomers try to be more <b>scientific</b> next time!<br />

According to the myth,<b> Jupiter</b> the father of all gods in the disguise of a<b> bull</b> abducted the beautiful phoenician <b>princess</b> <b>Europa</b> and brought her to the european continent! In this way the continent of Europe was "inaugurated"! Every myth is rich in symbolism and this specific one is recounting to us the fact that the current European continent was bound to become a blessed land, a land that would display at its fullest the archetypes of royalty, of joviality and of taurean stability and prosperity. <br />
<br />
<a name='more'></a><br />
Fast forward some thousand years and Europe today is indeed the most prosperous, serene and cultured continent worldwide. Or at least it used to be. Because in the last few months things seem to have radically changed, due to a series of ferocious terrorist attacks that ultimately spred a lot of terror (deadly attacks and killing sprees both in northern and southern France, in Belgium, in Germany). It seems that the careless years have gone away, no more romantic walks along the river Seine in Paris or anywhere else in Europe, since everywhere now there is an odor of gun-powder on the air! Everybody looks suspicious and each corner (no matter how cozy or romantic) is fraught with danger! <b>The enemy is within</b> and everywhere a potential terrorist is lurking! That's a rather unnerving sensation, causing massive paranoia throughout the European citizens! Their cities are transformed into over-extended prisons! So, what is the astrological reason that brought over this blick, disruptive and fearful “zeitgeist” to the old continent?<br />
<br />
Definitely Pluto in Capricorn has a lot to do with it. You see the sign of Capricorn is somehow rapresenting the structured and organized societies - our urban landscape, our cities. And Pluto (the "grim ripper", the bearer of primeval fear) is transiting for 9 years now in the sign of Capricorn (and over the "World's MC" - you may read about the importance of this phenomenon <a href="http://science-astrology.blogspot.gr/2014/06/when-hades-reached-top-of-firmament.html" target="_blank">here</a>). Additionally, Pluto is a planet intimately connected to the masses and to the tragic collective events. Of course Pluto transited several times in the last two-three millennia over the sign of Capricorn. Βut its impact upon humanity was rather minimal back then. You see,<b> the disruptive and transformative effect of Pluto in Capricorn escalated from the moment our structured, industrialized societies and mega-cities appeared in the horizon (mostly from the 19th century on.</b> So, humanity is actually experiencing this Pluto in Capricorn effect for the first time ever!) <br />
<br />
Pluto has to do with the so called "agoraphobia" too - the fear of crowds. If you are currently in Europe and you walk among many people or if you stand amidst a crowd (i.e. in a concert) then definitely the - not that absurd by now - thought of being shot or even bombed will be repeatedly crossing your mind! And there are other factors contributing to this paranoia: the current Saturn - Neptune square aspect, which is not facilitating us in stop thinking irrationally and in coming to our senses. And of course the overall Jupiter - Saturn - Neptune T-square (with the "double whammy" element of Saturn being in the sign of Sagittarius and at the same time squaring planet Jupiter! That's par excellence the fear of the unknown, of the person standing beside us whom we don't know, the fear of anybody belonging to a different ethnic background or religion...) <br />
<br />
Rebellious planet Uranus in the ultra-individualistic sign of Aries has its fair share too! It brings forth the uprising of the individuals. That would be a good thing, if creatively channelled. But if we put in the mix the newly found planetoid Eris then things are getting more dynamic and complex. You see Eris has to do with the people who are “uninvited”, “unwanted”. To the Europeans these “uninvited” people seem to be the muslims (who on their turn perceive the Europeans as invadors and usurpers of their own lands and goods (they call the Europeans “the infidel crusadors”). And the fact is that <b>we are currently in the middle of a volatile triple conjunction between the planets Uranus and Eris</b>, a conjunction that is ever more exacerbating the tension between the uninvited muslims and the european christians! It's not by chance that with this Uranus -Eris conjunction the phenomenon of “the lonely wolf” kind of terrorist appeared! In their perspective, the atrocities they commit on european soil are nothing more than mere "retributions" for the sufferings inflicted upon them by the Europeans!<br />
<br />
I've done some research on the impact of the Uranus – Eris conjunction over the human history. Of course it is preliminary to draw any definite conclusions but apparently this conjunction is coinciding with some rather odd and "out of the norm" periods of our history! It coincided i.e. with the outbreak of many revolutionary movements (especially in China). And with the implementation of rigorous dictatorships - where one man/woman is seizing absolute control over his/her entire country (the "lone avenger" seems to be a favorite theme to Eris). It was the case of Stalin back in 1927 (during the previous time planet Uranus was conjuncting Eris in Aries) and it is so far (in July 2016) the case of Erdogan in Turkey - who is apparently seizing absolute control over his country, disposing of (or even executing?) his opponents!<br />
<br />
Finally, there are two more elements that I personally think that they have somehow contributed to the current hectic "zeigeist" in Europe. The first one is the long stay of planet Mars in the third decan of Scorpio. That's pretty significant on its own but it gets more significant if we notice that Mars is actually forming an opposition aspect to the mysterious, "harsh" planetoid Sedna - that is located in the 3rd decan of Taurus. <br />
<br />
The second element is rather a wild guess of mine: planet Nine. If this legendary mega-planet exists at all then chances are it is transiting now (according to the famous astronomer's Mike Brown calculations) somewhere between the signs of Aries and Taurus.Thus, it might very well be in the third decan of Aries, forming a unique triple conjunction with the planets Uranus and Eris! Undoubtedly, such a conjunction would create a very particular "zeitgeist" worldwide! <br />
<br />
In any case, the decade of 2010's seems very reminiscent of the 1930's decade (astrologically speaking). Thus, some even larger-scale events might be coming over within the next few years to this old, aristocratic continent consecrated to Jupiter and Europa!<br />
