The build-up of Russian forces on the border of Ukraine continues, while the US and UK are warning civilians to leave the country and moving embassy staff. The Russians are insisting that the US is panicking about an imminent assault and that they have no intention of invading. The fog of war descends before any outbreak of hostilities.

  It would have to be said that the signs are not obvious for an outright takeover and storming of the borders as there was in 2014 when Putin sliced off the Crimea. See post January 19 2022.

  The best I can do having scoured various relevant charts is that Uranus at 12 degrees mid March to early April resonates across several charts as disruptive, with some keyed up now till mid March.

 The most recent late November 2021 Lunar Eclipse set for Kiev had an explosive Mars in vengeful Scorpio opposition Uranus square Saturn, which would point to military situations from Mars Saturn, and violence from Uranus Mars.  Located to Kiev the Mars is conjunct the Midheaven with Uranus on the IC, which would reflect the beleaguered mood inside the Ukraine at the moment.  And that T Square is being triggered from mid March to late April. Transits to eclipse charts can be illuminating in the months following.

  The Lunar Eclipse for May this year located to Kiev has a heavy-duty, discouraging Saturn conjunct Midheaven on the focal point of a T square to a 12^th house Sun opposition Moon; with a trapped Pluto in the 8^th. Whatever does or does not happen this week the tensions won’t lift.

  The world leaders strutting their stuff over the crisis, not all for ethically pure motives, are:

Emmanuel Macron, whose Sagittarius Sun relocated to Kiev sits on the Midheaven beside Venus Mercury as he launches a charm offensive to boost his April re-election prospects in France.

 Boris Johnson located to Kiev has his Scorpio Moon exactly conjunct the Midheaven as he attempts to regain public approval and distract from myriad domestic scandals.

Joe Biden has his bulldozer Mars in Scorpio close to his Descendant located to Moscow. Give that it is in a do-or-die square to Pluto and resonates also in Ukraine, this won’t be an easy situation for him to handle. Having scuttled away from Afghanistan, the last thing the USA public want is another open-ended foreign military intervention.

Putin’s 4th Term chart is also ramped up by the approaching brutal/ruthless Mars Pluto conjunction in late Capricorn, exact on March 3rd. The New Moon on March 2nd has a Pisces stellium of New Moon conjunct Jupiter and Neptune which falls in the 8th house of Putin’s Administration chart close to its Neptune – which might arguably suggest he’s drawn by a delusion/illusion into a serious miscalulation.

Joe Biden’s term of office has neither been as explosive as was feared from the challenging Inauguration chart nor as progressive as Democrats would have wished. Errant senators have blocked landmark legislation and the messy Afghanistan withdrawal was damaging to his reputation. But the worst may yet be – almost certainly will be – to come.

  The red flags on the Term chart, 20 January 2021 11.48 am, Washington, were the Uranus Mars conjunction square Saturn, Jupiter, Sun in Aquarius. Uranus Mars tends to be argumentative with a defiant no-compromise stance, and can amount at times to violence. Which might well be indicated by the square to Saturn, with a military as well as a revolutionary leaning. Jupiter in the middle will soften the effect marginally though it could also point to overly ambitious plans coming adrift.

  When these combustible planets come to exact aspect by Solar Arc will be September 2023 onwards, peaking around New Year into January 2024. Even before then the pressure will be ramping up from tr Pluto conjunct the Term Sun from March 2023, on and off till late 2024; at the same time as tr Pluto is conjunct the Saturn/Pluto midpoint which could be grim world events or economic hardship.

  From March/April 2024 there are several less than encouraging influences – a depressing/deprived mood from tr Pluto conjunct the Sun/Saturn midpoint running on into 2025; plus panicky muddled Neptunian communication snafus and confused misjudgments.  Over the coming mid terms this November the term chart has a couple of undermining Neptune conjunctions to two Jupiter midpoints which will be less than celebratory.

  Biden’s own chart has some luck this year but running alongside that is a calamitous tr Neptune opposition his Mars/Pluto midpoint picking up mid this April to mid May, repeating August to mid September, and again Feb/March and Nov/Dec 2023 which will lower his energy and morale. Plus the Eclipses in Taurus and Scorpio in 2022 and the Lunar Eclipses in 2023 will all be rattling up his Scorpio planets and Pluto for a series of potentially life-changing crises.

   From early 2023 to late 2024 he has tr Pluto square his Sun/Neptune midpoint bringing confusion, indecision and muddled thinking. Tr Pluto will square his Moon from late March 2024 on and off till late 2025, which can accompany family pressures or even health issues. Plus he has a catastrophic-setback tr Uranus square his Mars/Saturn midpoint from July 2024, running on through October and again in early 2025.  Tr Uranus is also opposing his Sun from August 2024 onwards hinting at a radical change.

  He has an extremely stalwart chart with four Scorpio planets and Pluto in Leo as well as a Taurus Moon ; and the White House is never a walk in the park with constant crises piling on top of one another. But he does look exceptionally stressed and some of the above could indicate health issues.

    There is a good deal of affection for him in the US. And with Mitch McConnell’s intervention the senior Republicans along with Pence may just be about to bust Trump’s bubble. So all is not gloom, doom and misery but his astrology is not upbeat whichever way you slice it.  

ADD ON: At the Midterms this November Joe Biden’s personal chart has pluses and minuses with a smattering of mild, upbeat Jupiterian influences in place; as well as a self-deceptive, confused and Mercury/Neptune. And tr Saturn squares his Pluto/Node which suggests relationships separating abruptly  and general stuckness.

Kamala Harris, who is labouring against major challenges in 2022 and 2023 with tr Pluto square her Libra Sun looks irritable and frustrated with tr Pluto hitting two Mars midpoints. And tr Pluto square her Saturn Node midpoint which tends to be distressed/depressed, grieving. And highly strung/anxious.

  There is nothing totally catastrophic on their charts – at that point anyway – but they are not exactly singing and dancing.

Add On: Eclipses covering the mid terms.

  The Solar Eclipse at 2 degrees Scorpio on 25 October 2022 on the run up has the New Moon conjunct Venus in the 1^st for Washington turning the spotlight on that location. It is in a Saros series which Bernadette Brady describes as ‘ being forceful, and taking power. It has a manic flavour about it.’ This is reinforced by a ruthless and stressed Pluto on the IC inconjunct Mars, and an argumentative Air Grand Trine of Mercury trine Mars trine Saturn in Aquarius in the 4th.

  Saturn is even more magnified on the Lunar Eclipse on November 8^th itself falling again in the 4^th square the Sun, Mercury, Venus in Scorpio opposition a divisive Moon Uranus. Such a highlighted/afflicted Saturn points to an emotional chill, insensitivity and square Uranus to an oppressive mood. Saturn Uranus can be dictatorial even by those who claim to be progressive. You could argue this either way – Saturn strives to maintain the status quo which is Democratic or it favours the conservative party, the GOP. Whichever the dice lands there will not be great rejoicing in the capital.

  The Lunar Eclipse will rattle up Joe Biden’s Mars and Mercury so he’ll be impatient and argumentative though his communication skills and perhaps even thinking abilities may come under scrutiny.

The political fallout from the sudden resignation of Cressida Dick, the Metropolitan Police Commissioner, will be an entertainment in itself but is of secondary importance to Londoners. After a litany of humiliating blunders, deadly mistakes, and evidence of a hair-raisingly sexist and misogynist culture within the force, a line had to be drawn – though as ever years late.

  When Sir Robert Mark was brought in to clean up corruption in the Met in 1972 he evidently remarked his ambition was to ensure the service arrested more criminals than it employed. In the five years of his leadership he put 50 criminal officers before a court, and nearly 500 others were swept out of the organisation. Corruption then went hand in hand with entrenched sexism and racism. Plus ca change.

  The Met was established on 29 September 1829 giving it an attention-demanding (arrogant) and inspirational Fire Grand Trine of Jupiter in Sagittarius trine Saturn in Leo trine Pluto, formed into a Kite by Pluto in a power-hungry, controlling opposition to a Libra Sun. During Mark’s five years as Met Commissioner tr Pluto was poised on the cusp of Libra and moved in conjunction to the Met Sun and opposition Pluto as he exerted formidable pressure to clean out the sewers. Very Plutonic and right on the key opposition in the Kite which is the central plank of the chart – the Met’s backbone.

  Unfortunately there is nothing similar in the near future. This year tr Neptune opposes the Mars for a sense of sinking failure with a few jolts from the tr Saturn square tr Uranus tugging on Saturn on one leg of the Grand Trine. Tr Pluto will square the Mercury in 2023 and then conjunct the Uranus in 2024 for an extended period of heated arguments about the best way forward. There’ll be a ‘shocking collision’ with the Solar Arc Mars opposition the Sun this year, of which this may be part; followed in 2023/24 by a dead-halt Solar Arc Mars conjunct the Pluto. It may get worse before it gets better.  Only by 2027 when tr Pluto is trine the Sun and sextile the Pluto does there look to be much transformational energy being applied.

  The other Astro-point of note is Cressida Dick’s First Term chart, 11 April 2017, which has almost exactly now the Solar Arc Pluto closing the square to Uranus to exact – which is a classic fall-off-perch indicator. Administration charts are way more useful for information and predictions than personal charts. Which is a point to remember given Joe Biden’s alarming inauguration chart, of which more anon.

  Cressida Dick’s personal chart, 16 October 1960, is agitated and jolted this year, sagging badly in 2023/2024; but high-flying in 2025. She’ll no doubt land on her feet (sigh).

  London Mayor Sadiq Khan, 8 October 1970, is now in a tug war with Home Secretary Priti Patel who is insisting he overstepped the bounds of his authority. She classed his behaviour as ‘rude and unprofessional’ which given her past track record is a touch ironic.  Born 29^th March 1972, she’s a Sun Aries opposition Pluto square Jupiter; with Sun Mercury opposition Uranus and Pluto trine/sextile Mars Saturn opposition Neptune – not exactly renowned for tact and delicacy.

 Her relationship chart with Khan is a hotbed of hostility with a composite Pluto trine Saturn, sextile Mars and a differing-agendas Sun square Uranus.

  Sadiq Khan is facing a disastrous year ahead into 2023 with tr Neptune opposition his Mars and then Mars/Pluto conjunction; with a mountainous blockage in 2024. His relationship with Boris Johnson, never cordial at best, is a pressure cooker of resentment and bile from this month on and off into 2023 with tr Pluto opposition the composite Mars.

Bruce Willis has the distinction of a special category all to himself at the Razzies, the anti-Oscar awards – “Worst Performance by Bruce Willis in a 2021 Movie”. In a career replete with a Golden Globe, primetime Emmys and People Choice awards, he appears to have given up quality work over the last decade, appearing in B-action, direct-to-streaming thrillers that pay for minimal work from him. His name gives them bankability but for the mainstream they sink without trace. This last year he made an astonishing 8 such.  

 One film critic mourns the passing of his great roles in Pulp Fiction and Moonrise Kingdom amongst others and hopes he won’t spend ‘the rest of his career in well-paid obscurity.’

  He was born 19 March 1955 6.32pm Idar-Oberstein, Germany with an American soldier father and German mother. He grew up with a stutter which acting on stage brought under control. Moonlighting with Cybill Shepherd was his breakthrough role when he hit 30 and his blockbuster Die-Hards cemented his top stardom.

  What is pertinent to his recent lacklustre career is tr Saturn moving through his low profile first quadrant since 2009 – this coincided with his second marriage and then two more children in 2012/14. Saturn in this phase of life often prompts a rebalancing of priorities with more focus on personal and emotional fulfilment than outer ambitions. It also tends to be less successful so can be a time of treading water.

  He does have a hugely complicated, talented and challenging chart. His 7^th house Pisces Sun (a favoured sign for the movie business) is in a creative, not always realistic Water Grand Trine to a lucky Uranus Jupiter in his career 10^th house trine Saturn in Scorpio. His Saturn opposes an 8^th house Mars squaring onto Venus in Aquarius in his performing 5^th house – making him emotionally intense, short-fused, stubborn. He also has a Yod of Pluto sextile Neptune inconjunct his Sun – this will, especially in early adult life, have seen him veer between low self-esteem and then too much ego. Find the right track to focus his energies on would be crucial for him.

  His Aquarius Moon also in the performing 5^th is square Neptune and sextile his Sun though not heavily aspected otherwise. His Mercury in Pisces in his hard-working 6^th is trine his Neptune and just opposition his Pluto, both out of element aspects. Which makes sense of his early stutter which disappeared when he found his destiny (yod).

  He is coming out of his low profile Saturinine dip though tr Neptune square his Midheaven won’t help in 2023 and tr Uranus will shake up his life considerable this year and next; but his Solar Arc Jupiter is moving to conjunct his Ascendant in two years plus (birth time being accurate) and to oppose his Sun by 2025 – both of which might help to lift his credibility as an actor back to former glory.

Serial conmen appear to have overtaken serial killers as the bad guys of choice for true-crime biopics and documentaries. The Tinder Swindler, Simon Leviev, has a Netflix expose running at the same time as UK ‘Puppet Master’ Robert Hendy-Freegard. Leviev persuaded gullible women he was the son of a billionaire diamond merchant, picking up an estimated £7.4 million in fraudulent loans from them. Hendy-Freegard spun a weird and wondrous tale about being an undercover spy and persuaded his victims they were IRA targets because they knew him. He made off it is reckoned with £1 million from his marks to live out his James Bond fantasy. Both men have served prison sentences for their crimes and Leviev is still wanted for fraud in several countries.

 Leviev was born 27 September 1990 in Israel; and Hendy-Freegard 1 March 1971 in England.

 Leviev is a Sun Libra square Uranus Neptune (Moon) in Capricorn, sextile Jupiter, trine Mars. Venus in Virgo trine Saturn, widely sextile Pluto.

  Hendy-Freegard is a Sun Mercury in Pisces square Jupiter Neptune with a seductive Venus in Capricorn trine Pluto.

  The common elements are Sun square Neptune = imaginative and slippery. Sun in aspect to Jupiter = confident (and lucky). Venus in earth sign plus Saturn and/or Pluto – emotionally cool and controlled and persuasive. Both have North Node in Aquarius – presumably in both cases unevolved and sliding back into primitive Leonine excesses. Not that Leo even in lesser mode is given to deceit but it does lust after a gold-plated lifestyle.

  Both have notable 9^th Harmonic charts which is often the case for financial frauds. 9th = search for pleasure.

Magician Derren Brown  is born only two days before Hendy-Freegard so has virtually the same chart –  turning his sleight-of-hands talents to better use.

  There are no birth times which is a shame since I’d reckon the Pluto in each chart would be strongly placed. There is a strong element of coercive control in such men.

Add On:

Another ‘charming’ Tinder fraudster who scammed £141,000 from a date, spinning tales being worth £6.8m with Hollywood connections and private jets, has been jailed for four years for fraud. Richard Dexter, 14 February 1983, (Companies House) persuaded his mark, an Indian national living in Dubai, to invest money into a multi-million pound biopharmaceutical technology deal, with the promise of big returns of around £1.8 million.

  He is a Sun trine Pluto sextile Neptune which makes for a stratospherically ambitious temperament. His plausible Venus Mars in Pisces (shades of Jeffrey Epstein) was widely square Neptune; and he had an adventurous and risk-taking Jupiter in Sagittarius.

  Like the two above he had a notable pleasure-seeking 9^th Harmonic.

Hunter Biden’s Asian and Eastern European business dealings during the 2020 election continue to rumble as a background issue with questions being asked about why the media has not flagged it up as a ticking timebomb. One reason may be that Trump raised the bar for what qualifies as a newsworthy Presidential family scandal and there is a reluctance to go after the Biden family given the tragedies that have endured. Plus certain of the those on the attack have right-wing connections and/or are themselves questionable.

  Fox Nation is currently streaming a four-part series called Who Is Hunter Biden, and author Peter Schweizer’s Red-Handed, just out alleges that the Biden family “received some $31 million from Chinese individuals who are linked to the highest levels of Chinese intelligence.” Schweizer alleges that “Hunter Biden was paying his father’s bills with the foreign money…” Not sure that would pass UK libel laws and Schweitzer in the past has been guilty of errors and his motives are suspicious. But he has also evidently revealed overlooked information in previous investigations. If his allegations were proved true it would be nuclear.

  Joe Biden does have a 5^th house Taurus Moon pointing to the important emotional role children have played in his life. A one-year old daughter died along with his wife in a care crash in 1972 which left his two sons injured but alive.  His eldest son Beau died of brain cancer in 2015. So no surprises that he would defend Hunter to the hilt. A 5^th house Moon suggests that children are a key source of nurture. However Biden’s Moon will catch the transiting Pluto square from February 2024 on and off for two years so there could be major issues in the run up to the 2024 election focused on family and emotional relationships.

  Hunter Biden, 4 February 1970, no birth time, is a Sun Venus in Aquarius which doesn’t sit too easily with Biden senior’s four Scorpio planets; and he has an impulsive, not well-controlled Mars in Aries opposition Uranus and a see-saw Saturn in Taurus opposition Jupiter.  

He has a shock or collision of sorts in his life from his Solar Arc Sun conjunct his Mars soon and probably into next year opposition his Uranus – very turbulent. Plus his Solar Arc Mars opposition his Neptune soon will bring a panicky sense of failure; with a couple of Neptunian sinkers to midpoints from mid April onwards into 2023, plus other negative odds and ends. In 2024 he has a tough, stuck Solar Arc Saturn square his Pluto.

  His relationship chart with his father is affectionate and locked-together with a composite Sun Venus trine Pluto. This year their connection will be strewn with calamities from mid March onwards with April looking ominous. 2023/24 will increase the pressures they are under as a twosome with worse in 2024/2025. So it could certainly be a red flag to Biden senior’s re-election hopes.

  On the synastry – Hunter’s Pluto and Uranus fall in Joe’s 10^th so junior will try to gain influence through his father’s status and career, causing havoc along the way. Oddly enough Hunter’s Saturn is conjunct Joe’s Moon so he will to a degree put up barriers to his father’s need for affectionate support.

  One to watch. Politicians in the past have survived errant relatives but this one may strike too close to the bone.  

Lata Mangeshkar, India’s renowned playback singer, whose voice  appeared in 1000 Bollywood movies, and on 30,000 records and who appeared on stage at London’s Royal Albert Hall as well as Madison Square Garden and Carnegie Hall, has died.

 When she started in movies, her uniquely pure, high-pitched voice was recorded and then “played back” on the film set for an actress to mime to her voice. At the time, playback singers were the aural equivalent of stunt men and women, vocal doubles who were heard but not seen, their existence an industry secret. But her voice was such a hit that her identity became known, and she appeared in the opening credits with her name able to tip the balance between a film being a hit or a flop. She became India’s best-loved female singer and a revered symbol of national identity known as “the nightingale of India”.

 She was born 28 September 1929 in Indore with a variety of birth times, 10.30 pm being one of them; was encouraged to sing from an early age and had to support her family after her father died when she was 13. She was a Sun Libra opposition Uranus so destined for an unconventional lifestyle with a flamboyant Leo Moon; and a creative Venus Neptune in Virgo. She also had a tough-minded 2^nd house Pluto square Mercury Mars in Libra with Saturn sextile her Mars. She was not afraid to take on the Bollywood studios and their executives as she battled for her rights and royalties. “I am a self-made person and I have learned how to fight. I have never been scared of anyone. I am quite fearless,” she said.

  Her only rival as the queen of Bollywood’s playback singers was Asha Bhosle, her younger sister, 8 September 1933. There were stories of jealousy between them, many of them fabricated.  Though Asha’s Saturn in Aquarius opposed Lata’s Moon and Asha’s Uranus was opposition Lata’s Mars so there would be spats.

  Lata never married with speculation that she feared childbirth would alter the timbre of her voice or that the caste system prevented her marriage to Raj Singh Dungarpur, a first-class cricketer and a scion of a Rajasthani royal family.

  She was also an extraordinarily versatile singer with lighter songs from popular Bollywood songs as well as classical albums. Her recording of verses from the Bhagavad Gita is regarded as a devotional classic. She also recorded in three dozen languages, singing not only in the various tongues of the subcontinent but in English, Russian, Dutch and even Swahili.

A wonderful life.

The announcement that Camilla will be Queen was adroitly slipped in with Queen Elizabeth’s anniversary celebrations making it less likely to raise a fuss.  She has been a mellowing and supportive presence in Charles’ life, crucial for his stability and morale when he takes over the throne.

  Born 17 July 1947 7.10 am London, she has a 12^th house Cancer Sun trine a 4^th house Jupiter in Scorpio pointing to a contented, happy family upbringing and both of these chime well with Charles’ Scorpio Sun. Camilla also has a charming, motherly Moon Venus in Cancer in her friendly 11^th. And a stalwart Saturn Pluto in Leo just below her Leo Ascendant.

  She is reserved and has never given any indication of wanting to upstage Charles; indeed all reports were she was hesitant at thoughts of marriage to him at all.

  Diana on the other hand with a 7^th house Cancer Sun and a 5^th house Venus in Taurus was much more outgoing and hungry for attention. Diana’s rebellious Uranus was square Charles’ Sun which was never going to work and her airy Aquarius Moon was a bad fit with his Scorpio temperament. Plus her argumentative and uptight Mars Pluto was conjunct Charles’ Saturn which produced a very gritty interface.

   Camilla has kept her head down and not put a foot wrong since their 2005 wedding, slowly building an empathetic reputation especially for her work with domestic violence victims and her calming presence at the side of the heir.

  There will always be snipers, bearing grievances on behalf of Princess Diana and betrayed wives in general, but she’s faced her trials well.

  What is likely to be a challenge ahead is her aggravated relationship with Prince Harry. She gets on well enough with Prince William  whose New Moon in Cancer is close enough to her Cancer Moon and Venus. But Harry’s Virgo Sun collides with her Uranus (and Charles’ Uranus for that matter) and his Mars Uranus collides with Camilla’s Mars – very ratchety. And it reflects Camilla’s relationship with Diana which was understandably stressed with an explosive composite Sun, Mars, Uranus conjunction and a tussle-for-the-upper-hand Jupiter Pluto. Just to set the difficulties in concrete Camilla’s Saturn Pluto falls in Harry’s 8^th and his Saturn Pluto in her 4th.

  Camilla’s relationship chart with Harry is fairly unfixable with a composite Mars opposition Uranus Pluto square Moon opposition Jupiter. Their connection is sagging through this year in a discouraging way and will move through more upheavals and ruptures in 2023/2024. Mind you Harry’s relationship with his father and brother are not good ahead either for several years. And Meghan is a bad fit with Camilla since C’s Saturn Pluto is conjunct M’s Leo Sun and M’s Mars in Cancer square Saturn in Libra collide with C’s Moon Venus.

  Camilla’s Solar Arc Midheaven will conjunct her Uranus (birth time being accurate) which does suggest a radical change of direction late this year or early next, coinciding with a fair amount of nervous anxiety.  Maybe once the Queen’s Jubilee celebrations are over she’ll make a further step backwards.

Who’d have thought Mike Pence would be spear-heading the first signs of a Republican backlash against an increasingly out of control Trump?  Pence infuriated his former boss by refusing to  overturn Biden’s victory on January 7^th, hours after the insurrection on Capitol Hill. He said the American people not the vice-president decided elections. Pence’s former former chief of staff Marc Short at the weekend described some of Trump’s advisers on the election as “snake oil salesmen” and joined several senior Republicans – senators John Barrasso, Lisa Murkowski and Marco Rubio amongst others – in voicing opposition to  Trump lies.

 Trump appears to be ramping up the rhetoric, calling at a Texas rally for massive protests against “radical, vicious, racist prosecutors” which according to legal experts could constitute obstruction of justice and backfire on him. Former Richard Nixon White House counsel John Dean attacked Trump’s talk of pardons for the rioters as the “stuff of dictators”. Veteran prosecutors say Trump’s comments seemed to reveal that the former president now feels more legal jeopardy from the three inquiries in Atlanta, Washington and New York, all of which have accelerated since the start of 2022.

  Pence was a half-good fit with Trump being himself a Sun, Mercury and possibly Moon in Gemini (though given his mother issues a Cancer Moon may be more likely.) and his Jupiter falls in Trump’s 4^th which is good. But Pence’s Mars and Uranus in Leo falling in Trump’s 12^th conjunct his Pluto always was going to be a problem at some point. Pence’s underlying rebellious streak could blow Trump out of the water or at least have a destabilizing effect when he finds a backbone.

  Their relationship chart has an ambitious composite Sun trine Neptune sextile Pluto  – so the end probably justified the buttoned-lip years for Pence. But there’s also a festering bitterness at the humiliating submission required, from a composite Mars Pluto North Node conjunction. Splitting apart a Mars Pluto relationship always comes after extraordinary difficult and with a great deal of hostility, vengeance and rancour since its do-or-die quality never gives in gracefully or at all.

   And it is that composite Mars Pluto which is starting to rock n’ roll in earnest this year with tr Saturn opposition the composite Mars exactly now, again in August/September and this December; and opposition the Pluto across the middle of next month (March), in late August to mid September, and again in the first half of this December. To top up the aggro tr Uranus will throw in a hand grenade into their togetherness this May and again in December as it squares the composite Mars.   Their relationship will be blown to smithereens. Added to which tr Pluto opposes the composite Venus from this March on and off till late 2023 which will pile on the emotional intensity.  

  Pence’s chart looks edgy and uncertain mid this May to mid August; with a calamitous few weeks mid June to mid July and mid October to early November this year and again in early 2023. He looks slightly more upbeat in 2023 though also blocked moving into 2024.

Add ON: “Former president Donald Trump is facing a total of 19 legal actions – about half of which allege improper conduct during his presidency.

Most of the cases fall under three themes: financial wrongdoings that made him more money; his role in the January 6 2021 insurrection; and his alleged interference in the 2020 election. Trump has denied wrongdoing in most of these cases. He has filed motions to dismiss several of them and has filed countersuits in some cases.”
