The Donald: America’s Shadow Steps Out Of The Looking Glass (P1)

by  • 

Donald Trump has been on TV since 2004, sitting at a big desk with the stars and stripes behind him. He wasn’t the president then, just pretending to be a boss on the reality TV show The Apprentice. He looked menacing and said, “You’re fired”, and rewarded contestants if they were “good”, and appeared to be in charge of something important. Now he has stepped through the screen and will soon — if all goes according to plan — be sitting in the real Oval Office, making real decisions that affect the lives of millions of real people around the world. (Neptune […]

Apparently I did predict the election outcome

by  • 

A reader reminded me about what I wrote about Donald Trump back in June: Astrologers often cast a chart for the moment that the Sun returns to its place at birth in order to get a picture of an individual’s coming year.  Trump’s Solar Return chart shows an extremely fortunate conjunction of the Sun and Venus, with Venus […]

Nasty Women

by  • 

No matter what you think about the candidates for president in the USA, the campaign has given rise to some barnstorming feminist political speeches. It feels like a real breakthrough — a change in the weather. In astrology, we have a “nasty woman”. She’s called Black Moon Lilith, and she’s strutting around in Scorpio this year. She’s been here since May, and she won’t leave until February. Lilith in Scorpio seems pretty powerful. She’s even been given a voice by Senator Elizabeth Warren, whose speech about nasty women made some of us fall around laughing. “Nasty women are tough, nasty women are […]

Hillary Clinton birth time controversy

by  • 

Many astrologers are hard at work trying to predict the outcome of the election.  Over the past year astrologers have come out in favor of both candidates for a variety of reasons.  My personal feeling is that when astrologers attempt to predict the future and fail it gives the noble field of astrology a bad […]

The US has an illness, and Trump is the symptom

by  • 

An explicit recording of Donald Trump’s misogynistic sexual harassment was just released last night, threatening to torpedo the halfhearted support of Trump’s Republican colleagues while creating very little stir among his passionate supporters. Portions of this article appeared in earlier posts. The Sagittarius ascendant in the US chart reflects the expansive tendency of the American empire […]

Pluto and the US Chart – An Eruption of Darkness

by  • 

In the kind of transformational astrology that I practice, Pluto’s rule in the astrological pantheon is to take us deep into the Underworld and reveal all of the dark and nasty corners of the psyche in order to illuminate that darkness and therefore aid in the process of personal evolution. Pluto is the Lord of Death […]

Many of you have written to me asking for an update on the chart of Donald Trump.  Last year I published this profile, and now he is the presumptive Republican nominee for the US presidency.

What Astrologers Are Saying About Brexit

by  • 

On June 23, the people of United Kingdom will go to the polls to make the most important collective decision of a lifetime. Should we stay in the European Union or should we go? The decision taken now could change the country’s future absolutely — probably not in the ways predicted by any politician — and set our course for the coming decades. You could look at a whole host of charts for clues to the outcome of the referendum: the Aries Ingress, the opening of the polls, the closing of the polls, the official start of the campaign, the announcement of […]
