AQUARIUS SOLAR ECLIPSE REVIEW: SHOCKS & SUPRISES REVEAL THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN IDEOLOGIES & IDEOLOGUES

! JOIN SHERI HORN HASAN @ https://www.karmicevolution.com/astrologically-speaking for this week’s Astro News You Can Use, including a look at former Prince Andrew’s sudden arrest & how the Epstein scandal has reached the level of crimes against humanity at the United Nations!This podcast discusses how the Aquarius New Moon solar eclipse on Feb 17 challenges now us to plant seeds that can blossom into the birth of a new, more humanitarian future-oriented ideology. It told us too, however, that it’s the ideologues who, rather than believe in an ideology founded on a system of ideas and ideals--especially ones which form the basis of economic or political theory and policy--instead are often blindly partisan advocates or adherents of a particular ideology.And, since this eclipse had both luminaries in Aquarius square their ruler Uranus in Taurus, it’s highlighted that a change in values is most definitely overdue. Uranus is the planet that tells us that the only constant is change. And, that the longer we resist change, the more likely change will occur in a sudden, surprising, or shocking way.So, the universe is asking us now several things if we look back & review the past few lunations. It obvious now that it asked us at the December 19 Sagittarius New Moon to plant seeds that lead to bringing into collective consciousness what we believe to be truly moral, ethical, & just.Meanwhile, the Capricorn New Moon on January 18 highlighted the need for us to stand our ground, or draw the line if you will since Saturn-ruled Capricorn loves its boundaries, in the fight against tyrannical idealogues who don’t believe in upholding justice for all.Now, since this February 17 Aquarius New Moon solar eclipse—which carries several themes we’re already seeing playing out not only here in America but worldwide—it’s time for us to review our true ideological beliefs & decide whether they are about a future of betterment for all of mankind or only for a entitled few.Former Prince Andrew’s arrest on February 19, which also happened to be his 66th birthday, shocked the world given his royal lineage. However, it showed us that no one is immune from finding justice through the legal system.This podcast looks at Andrew’s natal chart & dissects how his Chiron in late Aquarius conjunct his 8th House Pisces Sun—along with his Scorpio Moon square to them both—reveals the origin of his woundedness in relationships in general & with females in particular. We also discuss his history of sexual obsession from the time he was a young teen.Meanwhile, however, the Epstein scandal—spurred mostly by the release of three million documents related to him—has gone international in other ways as well, since it’s reached the level of concern for the United Nations.“In a statement on Monday, the independent experts – who serve in their individual capacities under mandates from the UN Human Rights Council and are not UN staff – warned that the alleged acts documented in the files could amount to some of the gravest crimes under international law.“The reported conduct could amount to sexual slavery, reproductive violence, enforced disappearance, torture, inhuman and degrading treatment, and femicide, according to the experts.“So grave is the scale, nature, systematic character, and transnational reach of these atrocities against women and girls, that a number of them may reasonably meet the legal threshold of crimes against humanity,” they said.” IS AMERICA AT A TURNING POINT, AND IF SO, IS IT “UNITED WE STAND” OR “DIVIDED WE FALL?”Meanwhile, other shocks & surprises occurred as well, including the sad news of the death of Jesse Jackson, “American civil rights activist, politician, and ordained Baptist minister. A protégé of Martin Luther King Jr. and James Bevel during the civil rights movement, he became one of the most prominent civil rights leaders of the late 20th and early 21st centuries,” according to Wikipedia.Then there’s the ongoing stalemate in the partial U.S. government shutdown as GOP ideologues continue to block the Democrat’s request to make modifications to Immigration & Customs Enforcement (ICE) & Customs & Border Patrol (CBP) agents as they continue to violate due process & the 4th Amendment. No surprise that the partial government shutdown took place as Saturn (read: resistance) entered Mars-ruled Aries, the archetypal energy of motivation & action. There’s this from Thom Hartmann, Feb 17: The American Revolution Started Over This Kind of Abuse: Have We Forgotten? Once the government decides who qualifies for Fourth Amendment protection, rights stop being rights and start being privileges handed out by those in power…”“This fight isn’t really about immigration,” Hartmann explains. “It’s about whether the Constitution still restrains government power at all. When elected officials call it a ‘nonstarter’ to require federal agents to get a ...
