Marjorie what’s going on with that petition for general election. It has nearly 3 million votes and it’s only been open a couple of days. The figures were whizzing up as I as was watching it. I’ve never seen anything like that in my life. Is there any extraordinary general election in the astrology?
They should petition for Starmer to resign instead which is more pertinent.
Weren’t there some second brexit referendum petitions like that in the millions?
Two deliberations happening during Mercury retrograde:-
-Judges at the Supreme Court are to consider how women are defined in law in a landmark case brought by Scottish campaigners.
-The assisted dying bill free vote in Parliament.
Qui bono in the end?
This is a few years away but the asteroid Apophis is apparently set to make a flyby across earth in April 2029. Any astrological insights to offer?
Marjorie is Labour going to be forced into a general election? I saw an online petition going through the roof to force one. Wowee. Strange.
A petition to reverse the Article 50 decision in 2017, which wasn’t driven by bots and foreign interference, got equally as far as this one will.
Wowzers.
Agreed. Sorry should’ve scrolled down before making my comment
It’s so funny in a horrific kind of way how quickly people change their minds and want back to the horrors of yesterday. It’s like all the damage done by the Conservatives doesn’t matter, and this horrific Labour rule isn’t helping matters. I think it is quite probable Keir is a goner in not too distant future.
And I mean as Labour leader. Someone else will continue the government.
And then maybe, just as Gnarly says, problems of today will not be tomorrow’s problems, and a whole new era will begin with who knows which one of the parties.
I feel a bit foolish with that prediction at the moment but let’s see …
Today’s headline “Starmer says “Britain isn’t working” as he announces job push”. This is the sort of reason why people want a new GE – he always comes across as negative and blaming. You could say it’s stereotypical critical Virgo who can’t see solutions beyond people should like keep busy.
He doesn’t say anything which resonates with the ‘man on the street’. No-one cares that Job Centres are being rebranded. There is a huge unworking workforce in their 50s who left the NHS, police, army and teaching because they were sick and tired of target-setting bureaucrats.
But I think you’ve nailed it, and really hit the spot. It was a comment of yours on the outers changing sign and what will come of it.
And as for the UK, it is just jaw-dropping how much this country has changed and what it looks now and how impoverished it is on every level. With this government I don’t think anything is really being solved or taken care of and instead you have this startlingly dumb problems you can’t believe they created (donations etc.). Instead of dealing with the economy and what people are going to do for a living, there is this whole other narrative that is being pushed onto the population.
I agree GD. Fiddling about with Job Centres is ridiculous, particularly when so many businesses are struggling, closing, or cutting back at this point. Very little cohesion or actual real planning to be seen, including addressing the widespread poor health of our population.
I increasingly get the feeling that Starmer just gets irritable and peevish with things, rather than thinking about them in any depth. Or, indeed, with any imagination!
I thought likewise.
Any astro thoughts on the COP climate summit? Wikipedia lists COP1 as having taken place on March 28 1995 in Berlin.
Might also be interesting to look at COP3 which took place on Dec 1st in Kyoto, Japan which produced the Kyoto Agreement (adopted Dec 11) which for many years seemed like the only meaningful agreement on climate change.
Given the latest Bessent nomination, can somebody remind me if Marjorie went through the whole US economy issue, Fed, dollar, US chart, people involved? It is as if I remember there was a post.
“US Dollar” gives me a post from April 2023. Other keywords might be “Fed” and “IMF”. There might be something on New York stock exchange, too.
Personally, I find financial astrology works in mysterious ways. Sometimes, strangely, a good Jupiter passage is the best indicator of incoming issues, because it can lead to overconfidence.
I always look at when Marjorie’s post catches the same period as challenging for more people involved plus country chart or central bank’s. Then I know something is up.
I’ve just bumped onto this, so had to share.
This great guy seems to be an accountant with a deep interest in astrology, and his blog post about Trump vs. Harris is revealing:
Thought you all might be interested in reading this.
Do you guys think it is possible to learn astrology through book, and to what extent? Can it replace certain degree programs in astrology, for example? And are there any paths you would suggest in this regard?
@El Aznar, I’d say most astrologer who are 50ish or older and have been to astrology since the youth started with the books. The very first chart I made for myself was with a harp and ruler using ephemeris, because computer programs were expensive and there was one mail order store you could order chart bases in the country.
At some point, obviously, you need to start applying your knowledge. Fortunately, most of my childhood friends not only went through a “mystic” phase in our teens, but still are very drawn to these subjects. I think it might be Pluto-Neptune sextile, and likely Uranus in Scorpio in our charts. This gave me incentive to learn. Also, circa 2010-12, I had a work community where I would draw people’s charts on breaks (interestingly, astro.com wasn’t banned as “occult” on work laptop :-D). This is when I really started understanding and studying Moon – I’ve since found most people’s “work persona” is ridiculously linked to their Moon, much more so than Sun. People mostly can control their ego (Sun), but the emotional responses you get in group situations are rarely surprising once you know people’s Moon sign, aspects and possibly house.
Same generation Solaia. I first got interested around 12 years old using some books my Mum had, one being The Compleat Astrologer and, like you, started hand drawing charts during this mystic phase (I still have my tarot deck from then, still zero skill with it). I picked astro back up early 2000s, then another break, then again in 2016 and it was a whole different world with everything online. I think it is possible to learn from books /what is available online, and I will never stop learning. I admit since switching to reading whole sign around 2019 I feel the courses would be useful to ground that knowledge, but it’s not strictly necessary as I don’t read for others.
As I was writing my question, and then after I pressed Send, I kept thinking that Sure, of course you can, but it is that every once in a while I bump onto some peculiarity, an obscure piece of information written nowhere, and that’s when I start doubting that everything is written in the books. Which, of course, right from the start it isn’t, but so much is. So that’s something that keeps me a little thinking, that there are crucial things not yet recorded, but passed person to person. And I was wondering.
I would agree with your comment. Joni Patry (I know a lot of people around here are not fans) uses Vedic – and has been good with timing and predictions. When Joni Patry and Janet Kane said Trump would win, I knew it was over. Janet Kane uses Western, and is focused on Archetypes. I used to take classes from her in DC. There is knowledge passed from person to person. This individual you recommended is one I will read. Of course I like Marjorie’s site very much. I also like NeptuneCafe. Wishing you well.
The bigger question in my mind at this moment, is why is the Collective Unconscious at this point – or the energy patterns, or that outer planet patterns giving us this particular group of people to deal with as leaders – and what this says about many things. I will deal with what will come. A hard lesson on power structures, education, reality. Or maybe back to Rome. The Pax Americana is ending. Who else rises now?
* REVISED COMMENT *
Hi Marjorie,
I was wondering if you would consider doing a write-up one of my all-time favorite avant-garde Icelandic musicians and performing artists, Björk Guðmundsdóttir.
Björk turned 59 years old yesterday and it appears she’s still going strong. According to a recent article from Artnet, Björk is now dabbling in the visual arts and she just created an A.I sound installation exhibit titled “Nature Manifesto” for the Centre Pompidou contemporary art museum in Paris, France. The exhibit features the sounds of endangered and extinct animals.
I’m asking about Björk because I’ve been a fan of hers since the early 1990s. I’ve always been fascinated and intrigued by her artistry and creativity and I’m curious to know what the astrology suggests for her (careerwise) in the near future.
I remember a few astrologers discussing Björk on a forum sometime back and said she had a very interesting chart with many unique aspects and characteristics. They didn’t go into specifics though. So, I’m curious to read your take.
Anything that you can share astrologically about Björk would be much appreciated. And as always, thank you for so much for your daily write-ups.
Great request Chris! Yes please Marjorie.
Me too, I love Björk.
Bolsonaro indicted for allegedly knowing about the 01/06 style coup attempt after he lost the elections to Lula in 2022 in Brazil. Not a good day for Pluto in Capricorn era leaders, for sure.
From a post here in 21st September 2021:
“His personal chart, 21 March 1955 2.45 pm San Paulo, Brazil, is mired in confusion and devastation from early 2022 to late 2023; with a long run of explosive jolts and jangles which start with tr Uranus conjunct his 10th house Mars from June 2022 onwards and continue on a life-changing ride squaring his Venus and opposing his Saturn in 2023 and then upending his Pluto in 2024. Nothing will be the same after that. 2023 may be the peak of his problems – or the nadir.”
Pluto strikes: Matt Gaetz withdraws his name from consideration to AG after at least parts the House Ethics report Republicans wanted to keep from the public were leaked. I think he was singularly disliked even by the fellow Republicans.
Now, I think Pete Hegseth might do the same for Secretary of Defence position. Media also got the their hands on the police filing of alleged assault. It is triggering even for me, having heard a reliable second hand account of what happened to a co-worker with my most horrible boss ever under similar circumstance (conference, partying).
Marjorie
Right on point as Pluto moved into Aquarius!
Matt Gaetz was forced to withdraw his nomination for attorney general this afternoon despite JD Vance trying to put in a good word it became clear During a meeting with republican senators this afternoon that there was zero chance in succeeding
@Anita, took me more time to write what I did, but right? JD has been in politics all of 3 years, counting his campaigning. Put him to the same room with people who might actually have concerns on how this looks to their voters, as well as Democrats actually having learned their lesson and speed tracking all the “Liberal” (I would say just Rule of Law) judges they can, and I know why we know why he looks stressed in the coming months.
I would also be interested at looking at Usha Vance astrologically. She is the true justice nerd of the family, having clerked for then now SCOTUSes Roberts and Kavanaugh, and is an extremely ambitious sounding January 6th 1986 Sun Capricorn.
Hi Solaia. My spider sense is telling me that Usha wants a seat on the illustrious Supreme Court. We shall see…
@Amelia Pettyfor, mine too. I had a very superficial look at the planets the day she was born. She is a Scorpio Moon. Many outer planet conjunctions to personal planets.
She is a astro win with Norwegian cross-country skier Petter Northug, who has a record for World Cup start wins, which carry monetary prizes, but only ever took 4 Olympic medals, all from the same 2010 games, then flopped 2014. Top cross-country skiers typically would have a career spanning 3 Olympic Games, but somd top skiers can make their career span from late teens to almost 40. Interesting about Northug is that he loves fast cars, and has a DUI as well as speeding double the limit conviction.
Another astro twin is Irina Shayk, whose dating history is interesting, to put it mildly.
Thanks! Scorpio moon-fascinating. Yep, she might be the most ambitious of all.
Could you look at John Prescott who has died today please? It would be interesting to look at his relationship with Tony Blair and also whether he would have got on with Keir Starmer.
Could you take a look at Jaguar motors in the wake of the new advertisement scandal please?
