  • THIRD QUARTER WANING LUNAR SQUARE: TAKE RESPONSIBILITY FOR YOUR ACTIONS, FOR CRISSAKES
    Apr 10 2026
    JOIN SHERI HORN HASAN @ https://www.karmicevolution.com/astrologically-speaking for the latest podcast which drops today April 10!CAPRICORN MOON SQUARE THE ARIES SUN DEMANDS RESPONSIBLE—NOT RECKLESS—ACTION! We’re right now still in the waning stages of the Pisces New Moon monthly lunar cycle which began on March 18. That’s until we hit the Aries New Moon, which will occur on April 17 at 27’29” degrees of Aries at 4:52 am PT & 7:52 am ET next Friday, April 17.Between now & then, however, we’re dealing still with the mission to grow into feeling greater empathy for our fellow humans. Challenged at the Libra Full Moon on April 1 to release any tendency toward going it alone by shunning the advice or support of allies, this waning third quarter square—known as a “crisis in consciousness”—relates to the tension between acting impulsively & understanding our responsibility to others.Therefore, the Saturn-ruled Capricorn Moon, which represents “the people” in mundane astrology, now demands a stop to the unbridled, impatient, impetuous choices & actions made by the Mars-ruled Aries Sun (the leader) without consideration of the opinions or advice of its partners.The Saturn-ruled Capricorn Moon also archetypally represents of “the judge,” the symbol of wisdom & justice. So, it’s now at this third quarter waning lunar “crisis in consciousness” square that people are more consciously judging the consequences--& wisdom--of such a leader’s actions. That’s because it’s now abundantly clear the U.S. acted independently of its NATO allies by waging war with Israel against Iran. And that such actions have proven impulsive, lacked strategic insight or well-defined achievable goals, & did not include not well thought out possible negative consequences. We are now at the point where people are demanding that the U.S. (& Israel by extension, since both are led by leaders who favor violent retribution rather than negotiation) sit down & act more responsibly. Especially since this is in keeping with the current month’s lunar cycle’s message of empathy.This third quarter square late on April 9/early April 10 was preceded by Mars’ entrance into its own sign of Aries on April 9, so let me say a word or two about Mars in Aries. While Mars’ entrance into its own sign of Aries increases the risk of impulsive action, it reminds us also of what are the highest & best uses of Mars’ energies.And that—given that Mars’ positive attributes include motivation, ambition, & assertion—the best use of Mars’ energies relate to being motivated to come to the defense of, & protect, those weaker & less able to do so for themselves. Because the choice is always up to us, we can opt for hasty decisions that further our recklessness, or ones that are tempered by realizing negotiation doesn’t mean surrender; rather it means the balancing of interests between parties.Given the general theme of the Pisces New Moon monthly lunar cycle as it wanes this week, we might understand that the upcoming Aries New Moon will give us the opportunity to do just that BECAUSE we’ve not grown those seeds of empathy for our fellow humans into a healthy enough plant by April 17.We’ll talk more about that next week. However, right now we can see that this week brings--in addition to Mars entrance into Aries until he moves into Venus-ruled Taurus May 18—a plethora of Aries energy including the Sun, Saturn, Neptune, & Mars. That this will increase as the week goes on to include Mercury’s move into Mars-ruled Aries on April 14, which may well create additional bombastic rhetoric for those who are already martially inclined. Implications include those who like to talk a lot—including those in power such as the U.S. Congress, which has a lot to consider as they return from their two-week recess on April 13, just after the Mars/Neptune conjunction in Aries late April 12/early April 13, depending on your time zone.Together, we’ve got a recipe for potential deceit by those who insist on rhetoric that feeds into what some of us may want to hear, but which lacks actual facts. In short, we’re cautioned to be “careful of people who appeal to you through your favorite ideals or delusions and then take you for a ride,” as astrologer Rob Hand describes this aspect in his book “Planets In Transit.”By April 16 when the Sun conjoins wounded healer Chiron in Aries we may begin to see how our actions have wounded others, & how this annual cycle may allow us to promote healing—for both ourselves & othersAlso that day we have Mars in Aries sextiling Pluto in Aquarius, & we may see new plans replace old ones in ways that provide the opportunity for developing a clearer objective. That’s probably most likely if we take this sextile’s opportunity to engage in negotiations rather than trying to use it as an opportunity to gain more power over our opponents.When Mercury conjoins Neptune in Aries late ...

  • VENUS IN ARIES: HELL HATH NO FURY LIKE MOTHER NATURE SCORNED!
    Mar 20 2026
    JOIN SHERI HORN HASAN @ https://www.karmicevolution.com/astrologically-speaking for the latest podcast which drops today March 20!This podcast discusses how, with Venus—the planet of love, beauty, natural resources, & relationships—in Mars-ruled Aries from March 6 through March 30, she has highlighted Earth’s current dire plight vis-à-vis the depletion of its finite resources.We explore the bigger picture question here, which is: Is it possible that when we rise above politics we can more clearly see the current situation for what it realistically is--the fight to preserve our natural resources from extinction? We go beyond politics now as we watch the death & destruction caused by the fight over oil & gas since the attack on Iran by the U.S. & Israel has disrupted 20% of the world’s flow of this finite resource.Could it be that Venus in the sign of the warrior is actually fighting back against such attacks on her precious earth? And that the current deprivation of oil & gas in the world right now is nothing more than an illustration of this fact?And is it possible that the precipitous rise in gas prices around the world right now is Mother Nature’s way of telling us we need to move away from fossil fuels & toward the production of alternative power sources that do not endanger our precious beloved planet?MAKE LOVE NOT WARIs there a better way than going to war over the mining & use of finite resources which has hastened the destruction caused by climate change through the continuous--& yes, scientifically proven--rise in Earth’s temperature?And might we not recognize--when we look at the current picture symbolically—the error of persisting on a path that will lead to future droughts, hurricanes, fires, floods, & other so-called “natural disasters”--that these are actually manmade?And, if so, that we can unmake them? Nothing screams so loudly at us now than the situation in the Gulf And nothing could be more obvious—to those who choose to pay attention—than that we are insisting on heading down the wrong path, at least here in America if not elsewhere.The current Gulf war, the cause of our immediate international economic woes—incited in part by America’s current leader’s obsession with oil & gas uber alles, at the expense of developing alternative power sources such as solar & wind—has thus far proven fateful indeed.So, is it possible that, given the economic situation the world currently finds itself in, including the downturn in the world’s financial markets, that Venus in Aries is asking us now to finally see the light? And that the past betrayal of partners causes wariness & distrust, so that when we then ask those same partners to help rescue us, they don’t exactly come running… VENUS IN ARIES: SEND MONEY, GUNS, & LAWYERSAs the world struggles to absorb & more consciously understand this bigger picture, its seems clear that the lack of human consciousness to mankind’s current plight mistakes fighting as the way out, when nothing could be further from the truth.As reported in the Washington Post on March 17: “Trump fumes at NATO for refusing to help secure the Strait of Hormuz, and embraces going it alone…President Donald Trump says NATO and other allies have rejected his calls to help secure the Strait of Hormuz… “Trump’s indignant response to allies’ refusal to get involved in the war underscored that the conflict — now in its third week and causing reverberations across the global economy — is one the international community is looking to the U.S. leader to sort out himself after he launched it without consultation.“You would have thought they would have said, ‘We’d love to send a couple of minesweepers.’ That’s not a big deal,” Trump said. “It doesn’t cost very much money. But they didn’t do that.”While the question of economic affordability—meaning the ability of everyone on earth to not only survive, but to thrive—means little to those hellbent on destruction as a means of retribution, the world’s people continue to suffer. And Mother Earth continue to weep…SUN ENTERS ARIES AT SPRING EQUINOX MARCH 20: ACTIONS RELATED TO FANTASY OR REALITY?The recent Pisces New Moon asked us to plant seeds that can grow into greater empathy for the plight of the world & all of its humans now. It’s a “there but for the grace of God, go I” energy. One that reinforces for us that no man is an island, & that "each man’s joy is joy to me, while each man’s grief is my own," as the song goes. That this month’s lunar cycle’s message follows that of last month’s Aquarius New Moon solar eclipse--which asked us to plant humanitarian forward thinking progressive energies that can save our planet from the kind of destruction we’re seeing now--might be more obvious now in hindsight. In short, we were asked to leave behind any fixed ideological notions that take us backward instead of forward, & that seek the benefit ...

  • PISCES NEW MOON MARCH 18 & MERCURY STATIONS DIRECT MARCH 20: WE HAVE MET THE ENEMY & DISCOVERED HE IS US:
    Mar 13 2026
    JOIN SHERI HORN HASAN @ https://www.karmicevolution.com/astrologically-speaking for the latest podcast which drops today March 13!This podcast begins by reminding us that we’re not in the waning stages of the monthly lunar cycle that began with the February 17 Aquarius New Moon solar eclipse that asked us to plant seeds that help solidify our humanitarian beliefs & that progressive change should benefit all humans equally.What we got, however, by the February 24 waxing first quarter square of the Gemini Moon to the Pisces Sun, was a growing curiosity & questions about why the ideologues in power have more backwards beliefs about true equality.By the March 3 Virgo Full Moon lunar eclipse, our mission was to reveal (& release) all vague, confused & confusing answers to questions seeking facts. Especially since by then the United States had joined Israel to attack Iran on February 28, shortly after the third-quarter waning square of Mars to Uranus on February 27, surprising many. However, by the March 11 third quarter waning square of the Sagittarius Moon to the Pisces Sun, tension grew from asking questions that received no straight or verifiable answers to those focused on the overall strategy & end game for this war.And, as Jupiter stationed direct at 15’05” Cancer on March 12, the energy shifts to where we stand—both personally & collectively—in terms of morals & ethics. Retrograde since last November, Jupiter tasked us to go deep about whether we’ve been following our heart & souls’ true knowledge about what is ethical & moral, or whether we’ve simply acquiesced to the beliefs of those in power.VENUS IN ARIES, JUPITER DIRECT: MORAL JUSTICE FOR SEX TRAFFICKED RAPE VICTIMSMeanwhile, as more Epstein documents continue to be released, since VE entered war god Mars-ruled Aries on March 6, & as it waxed toward a sextile to PL in AQ March 9/10 there was this from the NYT March 9: “Alexander Brothers Found Guilty of All Counts in Sex-Trafficking Trial The verdict comes more than a month after the trial began in Federal District Court in Manhattan where the jury heard weeks of emotional and often graphic testimony.“Three brothers, including two who were among the country’s most prominent real estate brokers, were convicted in Manhattan on Monday of engaging in a yearslong conspiracy to traffic women and girls for sex.“The brothers — Tal and Oren Alexander, who regularly closed multimillion-dollar real estate deals in New York and elsewhere, and Alon Alexander, a security executive — were found guilty on every count they each faced, and could now all face life in prison when they are sentenced on Aug. 6.The verdict comes more than a month after the trial began in Federal District Court in Manhattan, where the jury heard weeks of emotional and often graphic testimony from 11 women who had accused the Alexander brothers of rape or sexual assault. Jurors deliberated for 21 hours. In some cases, the brothers — Tal, 39, and Oren and Alon, twins who are 38 — used drugs to incapacitate their victims before raping them.” We might hope that this is a bellwether for the Epstein scandal & that it’s the beginning verdicts that help quench the thirst of those seeking long deprived justice for sexual abuse via international sex trafficking crimes. And that Venus in Aries will ultimately succeed in her her fight to restore the natural order of reverence for feminist anima as sacred.MERCURY RETROGRADE’S BLASTS FROM THE PASTThis podcast also delves into the reemergence of people & events from the past rearing their heads again today. Hmm, speaking of sexual abuse, might this recent verdict be a bellwether for the Epstein case as we learn that FBI is now investigating his sprawling Albuquerque, New Mexico, “Zorro Ranch” property,” which it neglected (or bothered) to search back when. A little Mercury retrograde action again, since the FBI knew about this property a long while back…Next, of course, is the Iran attack redux since both Israel & the U.S. claimed to have obliterated this nation’s nuclear capabilities after their attacks back in June of 2025. Oops, maybe not…maybe it’s during Mercury’s retrograde in Pisces we were able to learn we were lied to, eh? Especially when we remember that Mercury’s Hermes is known as “the trickster” in Greek mythology, there’s the outdated intelligence used by Defense Department to target what it thought was an Iranian military structure that turned out to be a girls school.U.S. at Fault in Strike on School in Iran, Preliminary Inquiry Says, according to the NYTs on March 11: “Outdated targeting data may have resulted in a mistaken missile strike, according to the ongoing military investigation, which undercuts President Trump’s assertion that Iran could be to blame…"...Striking a school full of children is sure to be recorded as one of the most devastating single military errors in recent decades. Iranian officials have...

  • JUPITER STATIONS DIRECT MARCH 10: DO YOUR ETHICS MATCH THOSE OF THE POWERS THAT BE?
    Mar 6 2026
    JOIN SHERI HORN HASAN @ https://www.karmicevolution.com/astrologically-speaking as she delves into how we got into this mess in Iran--astrologically speaking--via the ongoing Mars/Uranus cycle! And what’s in store as we head toward the third quarter monthly lunar square March 11!This week’s podcast outlines all that’s taken place--& its astrological correspondences—as we approach Venus’s entrance into Mars-ruled Aries (the warrior) March 6, & the Sun/Mercury Rx & Venus/Neptune conjunctions in Pisces March 7, & look for chaos to morph into greater clarity about the U.S./Israeli attacks on Iran.First, we’ve gotten already big clues already about how the Sun/Mercury Rx conjunction will manifest by March 7. And that’s first via the announcement on March 5 of the firing of Department of Homeland Security (DHS) Secretary Kristi Noem by President Trump. Secondly, it includes the announcement on March 4 by the Republican-led House Oversight Committee that they’ve subpoenaed Attorney General Pam Bondi, which compels her to testify regarding the Department of Justice's handling of records in the Jeffrey Epstein investigation. The voted 24-19 included bipartisan support, with five Republicans joining Democrats.Hey, it’s Mercury retrograde—time to revisit & review old issues, doncha know? And the same goes for the repeat during Mercury’s current retrograde cycle of the attack by the U.S. & Israel on Iran which occurred first on July 15, 2025, when Mars @28’54 Leo formed its first waxing square to tUR at 28’54” Taurus. And how, when Jupiter stations direct in Cancer March 10, we’ll be sorting out whether our personal set of values, morals, & ethics match those of society at large. Or, whether during its retrograde period, we’ve gotten in greater touch with whether we’ve simply blithely accepted those of our society & culture at large without question.Further, as we approach next week’s third quarter waning monthly lunar “crisis in consciousness” square of the Sagittarius Moon to the Pisces Sun March 11 we’ll again find ourselves questioning whether our personal values match the nebulously chimerical ones of those of people in power. WAR--WHAT’S IT GOOD FOR? ABSOLUTELY NOTHING!First, this podcast explores how the warmongering taking place as the U.S. self-dubbed “peace president” illustrates how Mercury retrograde works by repeating now—since Mercury stationed retrograde in Pisces on February 25/26—with this repeat an attack on Iran. And how, while the Sun’s been in Pisces since February 18, we’ve merged with Israel, the same partner as last July, to do so. And also, when the Sun, Mercury, Venus, & Mars were all in Neptune-ruled Pisces—both archetypally related to confusion, illusion, & delusion--the question arose: Are we’re doing the same thing over & over again but expecting different results?This podcast reviews the synodic cycle of Mars to Uranus since the two first conjoined at 26’32” Taurus on July 15, 2024, two days after the attempted assassination of President Trump during his campaign rally in Butler, Pennsylvania. We might note now that this degree conjoined fixed star Algol an “off with his head” energy, as the gunman reportedly grazed Trump’s ear. We take a deep dive into where this Mars/Uranus cycle’s waxing & waning aspects occurred in Trump’s chart & whether (or not)—especially given the symbology of his grazed ear—he’s at all listening to its messages. You really can’t make this stuff up, right? 😊Given the recent movement of transiting Uranus in Taurus in Trump’s 10th House of, among other things, his reputation, & his sinking poll approval numbers, it’s possible we’re seeing play out a mythical based reality. Why? Because Uranus—as it was squared again by Mars on February 27—continues to square Trump’s natal Mars & is headed back to exact square his natal Leo Mars, Ascendant, the fixed star Regulus in his chart.While Algol in Taurus was once again recently conjoined by transiting Uranus, & natally squares Trump’s Leo Mars, the question becomes what will happen when transiting Uranus again exact squares his Leo Ascendant/Regulus conjunction. Will the man who declared himself king of the entire world take that fall from grace that Regulus—when one in power seeks retribution against perceived enemies—portends? Stay tuned… JUPITER DIRECT MARCH 10: YOU CAN’T ALWAYS GET WHAT YOU WANT--BUT IF YOU TRY SOMETIMES--YOU GET WHAT YOU NEED! The tension between collective moral & ethical beliefs & the lack of answers to questions about why we’re at war in Iran & Ecuador, where are the rest of the Epstein files, is the U.S. Government going to give back tariff money after a judge’s ruling are palpable.Perhaps Jupiter’s station direct at 15’05” Cancer on March 10 will provide some answers, though they might not be to everyone’s liking. Why is that? Well, because Jupiter tends to ...

  • VIRGO FULL MOON LUNAR ECLIPSE MARCH 3 REVEALS THE PISCES SUN’S SHADOW SIDE: HIDDEN INFORMATION!
    Feb 27 2026
    JOIN SHERI HORN HASAN @ https://www.karmicevolution.com/astrologically-speaking to dissect how the themes of this eclipse have manifested thus far & what to expect now!First, this podcast reminds us that we’re still in the waxing portion of the monthly lunar cycle which began with February 17’s Aquarius New Moon solar eclipse which squared Uranus in Taurus.We knew then that there would be sudden & potentially shocking revelations this month. Hence, the first quarter lunar square of the Gemini Moon to the Pisces Sun February 24 has had us asking many questions (Gemini=communication & curiosity) the answers to which have previously remained vague & unclear (Neptune-ruled Pisces=confusion.)Known as the “crisis in action” portion of the monthly lunar cycle, this first quarter square represented the growth of the seeds planted at the Aquarius New Moon solar eclipse. It was then we were asked us to separate forward thinking humanitarian ideological beliefs from groups with fixed ideologues whose narrower sets of beliefs take us backward in time. As we move toward March 3’s Virgo Full Moon lunar eclipse, which occurs at 3:38 a.m. PT & 6:38 a.m. ET at 12’54” of the Mercury-ruled sign of analytical thinking based on facts from which we may draw conclusions, we face the confusion & frustration of getting only vague, inconclusive answers from the Pisces Sun, as noted. Nowhere was this more obvious than during former first lady & Secretary of State Hillary Clinton’s forced testimony in front of the GOP majority ruled House Oversight Committee on February 26. The ideological divide noted at the Aquarius New Moon solar eclipse became obvious at Clinton turned her clarity-seeking questions back onto the committee & it’s true purpose.Despite the fact that convicted sex trafficker Ghislaine Maxwell “took part in budget discussions related to the first Clinton Global Initiative conference; talked through challenges about it with both Clinton aides and Publicis Groupe, the company that produced the inaugural event; and arranged to wire $1 million to pay Publicis for its work on “the Clinton project,” according to emails in the massive cache of documents collected as part of the government’s investigations of Mr. Epstein,” as per the New York Times, Calling this “partisan political theater,” & “and an insult to the American people,” Clinton derided the committee for wasting time asking her questions instead of calling for the testimony of people mentioned numerous times in the recently released Epstein documents.People like Elon Musk, U.S. Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick, & President Donald Trump--who’s mentioned thousands of times in these documents as has been reported now by many reputable media outlets. MERCURY RETROGRADE IN PISCES KICKS OFF AN ANNUAL REVIEW OF THE EMOTIONAL QUALITY OF LIFE No surprise that such confusion might arise as this occurred just after Mercury stationed retrograde at 22’34” Pisces late February 25 & early February 26, depending on your time zone. Mercury will remain in retrograde motion until he stations direct again at 8’29” Pisces, & this particular retrograde cycle kicks off a year of Mercury retrogrades through the water element. This podcast discusses the deeper meaning of Mercury retrograde periods in general, and the specific call during this next year for us to dive deeply into past emotional habits & relationships to help us release hidden unconscious drives based on past experiences.If we can bring such knowledge out of the unconscious portion of our psyches & into the light of greater consciousness, we can then make the positive changes necessary for greater happiness going forward.As a harbinger of the beginning of such a review period, we’re seeing now being revealed the previously hidden names of those in contact with Epstein as he carried out building his international criminal pedophile ring. Some participated, some advised him on how to avoid further legal or public censure after his 2008 conviction for soliciting a minor for prostitution; others simply sought favor from him because of his money & influence &/or vice versa.THE PROMINENCE OF ECLIPSE THEMES IN THE COLLECTIVE AS WE APPROACH THE MARCH 3 LUNAR ECLIPSEEither way, though, this foretells the manifestation of this particular set of eclipse themes, which is that they involve paperwork, communication, & news, along with a young person. At the first solar eclipse the young person in the news was five-year-old Liam Consejo Ramos, taken by ICE along with his father into detention in Texas, whose bunny ear hat & spiderman backpack picture appeared as front page news across the U.S.Now, however, as we approach the March 3 Virgo Full Moon lunar eclipse, the spotlight has shifted to the 13 or 14 year old girl who’s testimony of rape by Donald Trump was deleted from the FBI interview files & therefore not released with the rest of the Epstein documents.This missing ...

  • AQUARIUS SOLAR ECLIPSE REVIEW: SHOCKS & SUPRISES REVEAL THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN IDEOLOGIES & IDEOLOGUES
    Feb 20 2026
    ! 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 ...

  • SATURN ENTERS ARIES & THE AQUARIUS FULL MOON SQUARES URANUS: CAN CHANGE BE RESISTED WHEN IT’S THE ONLY CONSTANT?
    Feb 14 2026
    As more light gets shed on the contents of Jeffrey Epstein’s long sought after documents during this month’s Capricorn New Moon lunar cycle which began on January 18 & hit its apex at the Leo Full Moon February 1, we see a collective aha! moment awakening process dawning.But, not everyone wants to awaken from their ideological notion that a “perfect world” means one where rich elites rule through xenophobia, racism, misogyny, gender-discrimination, etc., in order to creat an "us versus them" dynamic to stay in power.This is exemplified by Saturn’s move into Mars-ruled Aries today, February 13, which combines a planet that is change resistant with a sign that is action oriented. When these two meet, there are positive strides to be made if one can commit to working hard toward the achievement of a planned goal. Slow & steady wins the race, in other words, when these two combine.Pitfalls abound, however, in that Saturn’s shadow side is its rigidity & tendency to linger in the past, while Mars-ruled Aries is its impulsive & impetuous nature that may result in hasty decisions that can hurt not only oneself but others.As we approach Saturn’s re-entrance into Aries from now until April 13, 2028, we might ponder how this will play both throughout the collective & in our personal lives. Right now, the example in front of us, in the U.S., at least, is in the fact that rigidity on two sides of the political spectrum will cause a partial government shutdown at midnight tonight.As both Democratic & Republican senators are deeply entrenched in their respective political positions—the former on achieving future progress, the latter on staying intractably stuck in past decisions—the result is frustration.That this frustration will hit those most impacted by a lack of funding for the Department of Homeland Security, which oversees not only the Immigration & Customs Enforcement agency (ICE) & the Customs & Border Patrol (CBP) agency, but also the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA), the Transportation Security Agency (TSA), & the U.S. Coast Guard.Together, this will impact 260,000 federal employees, although not those in ICE or CBP, since they’ve been fully funded since Trump signed into law his big ugly bill last July which gave billions to the DHS for these agencies for years to come.The others, however, may see staff shortages and/or government employees working without pay until this stalemate is resolved. And that stalemate revolves around NOT sanctioning even MORE money for ICE & imposing a list of restrictions on how they are operating currently.AQUARIUS NEW MOON SOLAR ECLIPSE THEMES INCLUDE COMMUNICATION, PAPERWORK, & YOUNG PEOPLE...What’s clear as this Capricorn New Moon lunar cycle comes to an end & the Aquarius New Moon solar eclipse heralds in a new one is that the times, they are a’changin’…This podcast takes a deep dive into the themes of not only this current set of upcoming eclipses—meaning both the Aquarius New Moon solar eclipse at 29’48” Aquarius on February 17 & the 12’40” Virgo Full Moon lunar eclipse March 3--but how these echo those from last September's set of eclipses.So, as resistance grow by those in power to investigating & acknowledging that the violation of societally agreed upon morals, ethics, & justice deserves to be revealed if not punished—you know, stuff like pedophilia, denying people due process, punishing immigrants’ children with detention, etc.—so does the collectives’ awareness that something is wrong.This solar eclipse’s squares by the Aquarius Moon & Sun to Uranus in Taurus—as both Mercury & Venus in Aquarius's squares to Uranus have already foreshadowed—reveal that not everyone is in agreement that those in power deserve to remain protected by being allowed to remain hidden in the shadows.In addition, collective empathy for those who’ve been wronged has begun to grow since Mercury & Venus entered Pisces on February 6 & 9, respectively. And that includes empathy for the sexually abused young girls & women, to the innocent immigrants & U.S. citizens vilified (most often without proof), to the innocent children detained & incarcerated with a parent or who've been separated from parents & other loved ones.Such empathy will likely grow, especially since the Sun will enter Pisces February 18, following the February 17 solar eclipse. So too will the calls for change increase as the Aquarius Sun perfects its square to Uranus in Taurus between now & February 15/16, depending on your time zone.AMERICA’S (READ: THE PEOPLES’) ATTORNEY GENERAL OR TRUMP’S PERSONAL ATTORNEY?This podcast explores also some revelations that come clear through an analyzation of U.S. Attorney General Pan Bondi’s natal chart, even though we have no definite time of birth. This is especially relevant given her astoundingly combative & aggravatingly frustrating performance in front of the Senate Judiciary Committee February 11 as we approached ...
