  1. Just an observation – I think the double white ‘W’ logo on Mark Carney’s red hoodie in today’s photos is reminiscent of the zig-zag glyph for Aquarius.

  2. My my the bloc quebecois now holds the power. Interesting times. When do you foresee the next election in Canada (as it looks today) Marjorie.

  3. Thinking about the massive electrical outage in Spain and Portugal today, it’s interesting to see this from Marjorie in November 2024:

    “Tr Uranus moves on to oppose the Spain Sun later in 2025 into 2026 so major changes in the country’s direction will be unavoidable. Followed by tr Pluto opposition the Spain Saturn and square the Uranus between 2024 and 2027 bring a series of jolting events and a prompt to alter Spain’s attitudes and expectations. Tr Saturn Neptune into Aries just before mid 2025 and on into 2026 will square the Spanish Mars for another image and confidence dent.”

    The current Mars in Leo opposing Pluto in electrical Aquarius sets off the Spanish Saturn and Uranus, and is right across the ascendant/descendant too. So far, nobody seems to know what’s caused the chaos.

      • Thanks AC! I read about ‘atmospheric vibrations’ being the cause, which sounds like a ghost-hunting turn of phrase…..perhaps more than one thing caused it?

        • The media will certainly never ever look in the direction of total reliance on intermittent, unstorable technologies ; not that the man on the Clapham omnibus would get past the word ‘total’….

    • Thanks Jane, well spotted.

      And yes, it is interesting about the Mars/Pluto opposition and how it ties into Spain. I would also like to draw your attention to the spirng of 1941, when this opposition/t-square was flipped – so Pluto in early Leo, Mars in early Aquarius and BML in early Taurus. I think this coincided with the last surge of the Blitz and unlike what happened in Spain, this was a rolling series of the power supply cuts to major cities, rather than the whole country all at once. I read somewhere that what happened in 1941 Blitz heavily influenced the Electricity Act of 1947 and the nationalisation the entire electricity supply industry, to centralise it further. The UK national grid, initially built in the 1930s as a basic backbone, was then upgraded and extended post-1947. Localisation was seen as a weakness of the grid then, in contrast to the situation in Spain where more localised microgrids are being offered as the solution.

  4. Russia and Saturn-Neptune conjunctions:

    Bolshevik revolution 7th Nov 1917 2:30 a.m. Leningrad. Neptune was at 7 Leo 6 conjunct Saturn at 14 Leo 11.

    Stalin’s death 5th March 1953 Moscow. Neptune was at 23 Libra 28 conjunct Saturn at 26 Libra 37.

    Fall of Berlin wall 8th Nov 1989. Saturn was at 10 Capricorn 2 conjunct Neptune at 10 Capricorn 15.

    I can’t work out why Russia is so sensitive to Saturn-Neptune conjunctions. And whether the upcoming Saturn-Neptune conjunction will affect them. Any thoughts?

  5. Neptune in Aries tends to usher in child monarchs in England.

    King Richard II became king at age 10 on 21st June 1377. Neptune was at 17 Aries 38.

    King Edward VI became king at age 9 on 28th January 1547. Neptune was at 27 Aries 5.

    Queen Victoria became queen at age 18 on 20th June 1837. Neptune was at 7 Aquarius 48, but Pluto was at 16 Aries 47.

    So 16 to 27 Aries seems to be sensitive.

    The only thing I can connect it to in the England 1066 chart is the Ascendant at 22 Aries. But why would the activation of the ascendant indicate a young monarch?

  6. 1. Has anyone seen the Slovak filmmaker Kerekes’s documentary Wishing on a Star, about the active astrology practitioner Luciana de Leoni d’Asparedo and her clients?

    2. Could some of you summarize the main principles of one of the known astrological techniques for life improvement also seen in the film, and that is the Solar Return relocation? What are the beneficial aspects one should aim for when picking a spot to be in when the Sun returns where it was when a person was born?

  7. I would like to know if JK Rowling is going to be in danger after court ruling in favour of women’s sex based rights(Finally justice and reason prevails).
    Does anything show up in her chart -as it’s getting testy out there -and she’s been on the front lines .Thank you.

  8. Virginia Giuffre, the woman who has accused deceased convicted sex offender Jeffery Epstein and Prince Andrew of sexual abuse, has died by suicide.

    May she RIP!!

  9. I’m not sure if there’s a way to examine this astrologically, but if so, could you look at the growing tension between the judiciary and the executive branches of gov’t in the States? A sitting judge was just arrested for attempting to block the deportation of an immigrant which is just another escalation between the two sides. There’s a lot of political experts who are warning that it’s only a matter of time before Trump ignores the courts altogether and begins enacting his executive orders with or without their approval. Any insights on if/how this might play out?

    • I think the crucial questions are, what will be the day of his coronation and which of his sons will succeed him?

      Will he be like William the Conqueror (or the Bastard, take your pick) and give different regions to different sons for them to govern?

      I suspect many Americans will now be wishing that they had kept the US as a Commonwealth realm.

      It is worth remembering that even when Grenada’s government was overthrown in a communist coup, the Marxist communists kept the Queen as head of state. She was also the head of state of Pakistan, a female head of state of a heavily Islamic country. Both examples show the flexibility of the Commonwealth Crown.

    • How is “Trump ignoring the court altogether ?Can you support this act of unlawful conduct by the sitting judge?it looks like a reasonable response to the judge’s by the administration.

      “In court on Friday, Dugan’s attorney said that “Judge Dugan wholeheartedly regrets and protests her arrest. It was not made in the interest of public safety,” according to the AP.
      In charging documents, investigators said that plainclothes federal agents went to Dugan’s courtroom on April 18 with the intention of arresting Flores-Ruiz. A Mexican immigrant, Flores-Ruiz had been removed from the United States in 2013, but immigration officials learned he was back in the country illegally because of his arrest in a local domestic abuse case.”

      • @Antonia, there’s another side to the story that is much more nuanced, per local reports. Don’t believe everything this (mal)administration puts out, especially Kash Patel. It’s called distorting the truth or, more directly, lying.

  10. Apropos nothing, but I wanted to say a heartfelt and very large thank you for this site, both directly to you Marjorie and to all of the contributors.

    I am fascinated by astrology but know nothing about it. One day I will find time to learn. In the meantime I have a yearly reading by Marjorie and try soak up the knowledge shared here.

    Thank you x

  11. The boxing fight between the sons of Nigel Benn and Chris Eubank takes place this weekend promoted by Eddie Hearn (the son of Barry!). Intrigued by all these family dynamics and there is an added interest that Chris Jnr says he’s fallen out with his idiosyncratic father who thinks he’s a disgrace. I know they’re hyping it up to get viewers but astrologically this must be interesting for the nepotism etc

    • And we’ve also got Eilish McColgan running in the London Marathon hoping to break some of her mum Liz’s records. I guess this is the Capricorn stellium generation hitting their peak

  12. Hi Marjorie I been looking at 1989 lately and it has a number of echoes to today peaples protests, Russia, China, Ukraine, German, liverpool, DT, mini crash in the stock market dodgy vice president etc maybe worth a look?

    • Astrologically of course, same Saros cycle of eclipse AND also Saturn-Neptune conjunction (in different signs) in both 1989 and 2025.

  13. The writer of the Neapolitan Novels, Elena Ferrante is said to be Anita Raja born 5 April 1953.Naples, Italy. The first book of the tetralogy My Brilliant Friend is rightly lauded by NYT as the best novel of the 21st century. Care to have a look at her?
