Low-key/priority, mostly for astrological insight.
The Corporation for Public Broadcasting (founded on November 7, 1967), the US government agency that supports NPR & PBS stations, is being shut down after its funding was revoked by Congress and the Trump administration.
I won’t be surprised if NPR (founded February 26, 1970) and PBS (founded November 3, 1969) will also be either shut down or severely limited in the next few years.
All three of the above, the CPB, NPR and PBS, are headquartered in Washington DC. All dates from Wikipedia.
Even though I live in the UK, I occasionally listen to NPR podcasts, which are of a high quality and relatively politically neutral and I would be sad to see them disappear.
The image that comes to my mind of the Trump administration is that of a boa constrictor, squeezing to death all that it disapproves of.
Elon Musk made a comment recently basically saying women were made weak and destined to be traded off to warring tribes. Of course, in a world where women are reviled (think Vance’s “childless cat ladies comments”, the US’s refusal to elect a woman president over a convicted sexual predator, women getting beaten and killed if their hair is uncovered in Iran and elsewhere, etc.), is it any wonder that this is the new normal?
I read from various websites that Pluto in Aquarius was suppose to usher in a period where women took control or at least share power, but given the current state of affairs, I don’t see it happening. Honestly, my blood boils where it is common for men to openly praise women subjugation and dominance over women’s freedom. Do the stars show if this change of attitude will ever change? Because I speak as a woman that I trust practically every group (gays, trans, immigrants, etc.) over rich men in power. At least these groups don’t call for my rape and gleefully say “your body, my choice.” If men keep this up, then expect marriage and childbirth rates to continue to fall.
Allyn – agree with everything you say. But Pluto is a slow moving planet. Change is coming. I do feel that.
‘The Vindication of the Rights of Women’ by Mary Wollstonecraft was first published in 1792 when Pluto had just recently begun its journey through the 3rd decan of Aquarius. Also Marjorie had said that Saturn/Neptune conjunctions tend to be tied into progressive policies for women iirc. It was around for the Married Women’s Property Act in 1882 I think.
Marjorie,
The other day I bumped onto a French documentary Turkmenistan: the World’s Strabgest Dictatorship? on TV.
I was flabbergasted.
Yes, I knew similar dictators with personality cult were many on this planet nowadays and in the days of yore, but this was just something else.
If you could be interested, I would like to read about your take on astrological reasons behind the country’s leader behaviour.
And maybe what his son might be like and the fate of the country – which is, if I remembered well, the world’s biggest emitter of methane into the atmosphere – if the country’s birth data are in Campion’s book. Or elsewhere.
@ El Aznar,
What was the name of that documentary? Turkmenistan is a country I have long been fascinated with…as well as it’s political isolation.
I would like to watch the documentary you said you saw.
The documentary is called Turkmenistan: The World’s Strangest Dictatorship?
With a ? at the end.
The psychology and genesis of this kind of behaviour from a person (leader) nd sociology of such society and how it creates conditions or is prone to this is beyond fascinating.
If it interests, could you please look at Mr. Jamie Dimon’s astrology; because, he’ll soon be retiring as CEO of JPMorgan Chase, and it’s rumored he’s in the running to be the next Fed Chair, or may even run for US President? Thanks, Marjorie.
Pamela Anderson & Liam Neeson. She’s had poor luck in relationships before. Any longetivity for this match?
I don’t know about their astrology but we’ve got sequels to The Naked Gun, This Is Spinal Tap and Spaceballs coming out this summer. Return of spoof (Uranus) comedy (Gemini)?
Hi Majorie
How does the moon signs & rising signs affect the astrology signs? I realize this is difficult questions. Thank you anyway!
