The US killed a THIRD of the Korean population in the Korean War. Mostly peasant non combatants,. Entire cities were obliterated. Great Satan is correct.
The US lives in a solipsistic bubble of self-congratulation and cultural ignorance.
First of all, thank you for your courageous and indefatigable pursuit of the truth, beginning in the dark days of the COVID psy-op and continuing through these revelations of concatenating psy-ops, both retrospectively and in real time, unfolding in 2026.
We are living in a matrix of lies.
For several years I have been haunted by the words of Thomas Jefferson, "I tremble for my country when I reflect that God is just."
As a person who uses the tools of astrology to gain insight into current events, the astrology of 2026 strongly indicates the dawning of a new civilization, so I suggest we err on the side of overstating the importance of new trends, and I’d suggest this at least through the next few years.
I’m mostly speaking of the powerful Saturn-Neptune conjunction on February 20, 2026 at the very first degree of Aries, also known as the World Point.
Archetypally, meetings of Saturn and Neptune relate to challenges to the collective beliefs (Neptune) that create and uphold our reality (Saturn).
These two planets come together approximately every 35-37 years and the last time they met, in early November 1989, several days later the Berlin Wall came down, which precipitated the fall of the Soviet Empire over the next few years.
This time, the war in Iran began one week after their meeting.
But this one is much bigger than your regular meeting of these two giants, because the last time they met at 0 degrees of Aries was way back in 4361 BC, at least a few centuries before civilization is said to have begun.
In other words, just looking at the symbolism of this one planetary aspect alone advises us to take very seriously the idea that we are seeing the end of one age and the beginning of another.
But there are more powerful astrological signs that tell us 2026 truly is, and will be, one for the history books.
Relating to the massive impact media and technology such as this video are having on our world, this will likely be a continuing trend during the period of Pluto in Aquarius (roughly 2024-2044), as well as Uranus in Gemini (roughly 2026-2033) and Neptune in Aries (roughly 2026-2039).
Uranus in Gemini has coincided with all of America’s most impactful wars (Revolutionary, Civil War, and World War II), Neptune in Aries last happened during the Civil War and Pluto in Aquarius took place during the American and French Revolutions.
Pluto in Aquarius is symbolized by decentralization of power, especially relating to the impact that media and technology can give power to people and groups who may not have had it already.
Pluto entered Aquarius for a few months in 2023 before going back to Capricorn, about six months of 2024, before its final visit to Capricorn that fall and then back to Aquarius until the 2040s on November 20, 2024.
It was during this period that we saw the rapid rise in AI as well as the power in media shifting from traditional, corporate outlets in TV and newspapers to independent outlets on the Internet.
The point of all of this is that Iran’s video is surely a sign of things to come, no matter how much people try to claim that some kind of technocratic globalist prison planet is about to take over. Oh sure, they’re trying but the genie’s well out of the bottle and one of the lessons I think we can take from the COVID-19 era is that a heck of a lot more people are awake and one of the major reasons for this is because we ARE talking to and listening to each other on a global scale never before possible.
Keep your hopes alive, everyone, and find your courage and your authentic expression!
Thank you for the run down. Personally I don't believe that celestial bodies influence the way we behave collectively. However I find the possibility that their cyclical motions define time periods that signal inevitable shifts in our civilization intriguing.
The way I understand astrology, I believe, will be in line with your idea here.
Basically, I believe it’s not that the planets and their aspects influence human behavior, but rather that their relationships in the sky are like a divinatory language, giving us humans clues about the nature of time and consciousness.
Having said that, of course the two Lights of astrology, the Sun and the Moon, clearly influence human behavior, so I’m not completely closed to the idea that there could be some connection between the planets and human consciousness.
Anyway, I’ve seen way too much evidence from looking at charts and also observing events in real time for me to not see there’s great power in having an astrological perspective. If nothing else, my daily experience has become much more profound and grounded in a sense of awe and gratitude about the Great Mystery and about the dazzling beauty and intelligence of Nature. Looking at visual graphs of the Venus Star Pattern alone is most likely to create at the very least cracks in the worldviews of those who believe everything is just random.
How so? I am proposing that the cycles are time keepers that mark shifts that occur of their own in civilizations at our particular stage of evolution. They don’t induce them.
Beats the s**t of me. Never thought much of these fields until I had personal readings that were astounding. Now I am wary to discount them.
If I were to speculate, civilizations that emerge in a particular planetary system with its own orbital patterns and periods evolve in a cadence corresponding to them.
The way I currently grok astrology and practice it is that it’s not that the planets and their aspects create some sort of energy that we humans feel, but that they are like a giant clock which we can learn to read to determine psycho-spiritual patterns in human history and life.
I think the notion that they act in some way on us is a descendent of the false scientific materialist mindset, which sees everything as cause and effect and allows no room for patterned intelligence and calls everything random.
But when you consider absolutely stunning facts such as our Moon and Sun being precisely the same size from our perspective, and thus creating profound eclipses, yet being much different in actual size (so the two have to be just the right distance from Earth for this perception of ours to be true), when you grok that, you start to sense that’s there is divine intelligence at play, and it’s an intelligence in my experience which rewards careful and grateful observation.
Also, the Venus Star Point pattern which makes a perfectly symmetrical, complex flower-like pattern is stunning and awe-inspiring.
Incidentally when you say "the dawning of a new civilisation", the producer of the Astrology podcast, Chris Brennan, did some historical research on the planetary shifts back in 2020 and he was rather concerned because the closest parallel was to the time Augustus took over as Emperor and the Roman republic fell. He knew that many astrologers were forecasting positive events, but the historic evidence was not so good. i dont know exactly how he looked at things. Lets hope we can do better this time.
I remeber seeing the Jupiter saturn conjunction, it was beautiful because the planets met in the sky. It did not feel malevolent. Quite the opposite.
Currer, I also watched that Jupiter Saturn conjunction and felt profoundly moved and hopeful as I did that.
I’d just begun my deep dive into astrology one year before, so it was one of my early opportunities to really participate in witnessing these major events on a chart play out in the Heavens.
At the time, I had to walk about five minutes to pick up my daughter from elementary school, usually just after sundown, and I explained to her about the conjunction, how these were the two largest planets in our solar system and how they only came together once every twenty years so this was a special event, one which she’d only see once as a kid (that was one more time than me, though, because I was unaware of that opportunity when I was a child in the early 1980s!).
Even she thought it was kind of cool as the two became close enough to look like a giant star.
And yes, I listen to the Astrology Podcast and had started by then, so I remember Brennan’s warnings.
Cool, thanks for the info. And funny you mentioned the English Reformation as I did a little fact verifying yesterday when I first wrote my comment to Madhavva and some of that spat out some information about that period, but not the particular, juicy details you shared.
Anyway, I’ve got to sign off for a while now, but I gave you a follow now so we can keep in touch!
Jupiter and Saturn conjunct every 20 years but the conjunction of 2020 was unusual in that visually they combined into one star. Usually conjunctions just slide past each other several visual degrees apart, as two objects.
It made me think of the legend of the star at the birth of Jesus - a portentous event of some kind! Pluto was invisibly behind it...so pretty total change.
Consider the Biblical evidence of idolatry and rebellion among the Children of Israel.
The “Star of Chiun” is a revealing symbol of this idolatry and rebellion. Israel made and carried the star of their god as an object of worship. This is recorded in Amos 5 and Acts 7. Amos 5:25–26 states that these rebellious Israelites created “the star of your god, which ye made to yourselves,” and carried it in the wilderness—and the rebellion did not end there. This was no splinter faction. It was a significant portion of the people, and the rebellion was not a one-time event. Four hundred years of captivity undoubtedly did grave damage to the children of Israel. Moses was on Sinai to speak with God. There, God delivered the Ten Commandments, calling the people back under His authority. These commandments were no empty ceremony. They were the very foundation of the law that followed. Yet this faction did not simply vanish, nor did the rebellious spirit behind it. While Moses was on Mount Sinai, that rebellious nature broke into the open with the creation of another idol.
The “Star of Chiun” is not a physical star, but a Biblical indictment of Israel’s idolatry—thought by many scholars to be centered on Saturn. Israel had adopted a star-marked form of idolatry in the wilderness after leaving captivity in Egypt. Israel took up false worship, bore its symbols, and made and embraced them for itself—all while claiming covenant standing. The Zionist movement’s flag, later adopted by the modern state of Israel, bears a six-pointed star at its center.
The choice of a star as the focal point of the national flag of Israel is not some meaningless accident or cosmic coincidence. Symbols, particularly religious or national symbols, are chosen for deep, abiding reasons. This star flag did not emerge by accident in Prague, nor later at the Zionist Congress in 1897. Israel’s political and religious self-presentation is deeply rooted in symbolism and events from both its ancient and not-so-ancient past.
And once again, we are told not to look, not to question, and not to connect what is sitting in plain sight.
Also, YES, I was going to mention the legend of Jesus’ birth star that the three wise men followed and how it may have been a Jupiter/Saturn conjunction. You’re bringing up Pluto suggests you may have an educated guess about when Jesus was born or maybe even a chart? If so, please share!
One astrologer I listen to, Robert Phoenix, has a theory that Christ’s actual birthday was September 11th. I don’t remember the year, but it’s a well-fleshed-out theory that I’m open to.
I do know that the birth of Christ being put on December 25th seems to be an appropriation from pagan mythologies with an astrological basis, because the Sun’s literal descent from our Earth eyes stops on December 21st and then begins to visibly rise again on the morning of December 25th. The “Sun/Son has risen!”
And also, that we can see connections to the Service-focused archetype of Virgo in the Christ story, even that he was the “Son of a Virgin Mother,” and then how it is also connects to the Pisces archetype across the Virgo-Pisces axis.
All fascinating stuff and would love to hear your thoughts!
I agree with the pisces/virgo axis for the past 2,000 years. But we are now in aquarius/leo - wonder how that will work out.
I dont have any insights into Jesus horoscope. I do wonder if he was older than his traditional age. 30 seems too young for such wisdom, and to call his followers "little children."
Yes, December was just a carryover from pagan festivals.
I’ve been reasonably quiet in terms of content creation over the past several months, but am feeling the Call to create more work, especially the longer-form essays I’ve written in the past which I really love.
As a former media professional, over the past several years I’ve generally assigned myself media projects/goals for each year, but haven’t settled on one yet in 2026.
I’m feeling reasonably confident the idea will come to me over the next several weeks, especially after Mercury enters Aries after it’s long stay in Pisces, a transit I use each year to focus more on my playful, soulful, creative expressions, such as playing my acoustic guitar.
Anyway, I am rather active in Notes here, as I use Substack as my home base for social media, and one thing I love doing is sharing and promoting the work of others.
Now, this ties into my commitment to creating the more beautiful world our hearts know is possible, a phrase coined by my favorite contemporary philosopher, Charles Eisenstein. And that is I earnestly believe in an abundance mindset and an abundance economy which means a more Aquarian, “a rising tide lifts all boats” type of economic model in which we all cooperate and actively support each other, as opposed to a more hierarchical, competitive mindset that I call Capricorn Economics.
And that leads me to the discussion over the Great Ages and when the shifts between periods occur. This big cycles are one of my favorite topics so I’ve listened to/read a lot of opinions on the matter of whether the Age of Aquarius has begun.
The fact that there’s no unquestionable empirical way to answer this question is rather fascinating considering astrology has such precise timings.
It turns out that this relates to the reality that while the Great Ages idea goes back deep into human history, the study of it and debate over timing it wasn’t a part of the astrological tradition until the mid 1800s.
Now, if we use a system that simply references where the Sun is at the during the March Equinox to answer the question, then we’ve still got a few hundred years left of the Age of Pisces, as the Sun was at around 4 ° of Pisces in 2026 and moves about 1 ° every 72 years.
Some astrologers go with that and will stridently argue it.
Others use different methods, and say we’ve entered it recently, are entering it now or there’s even a well-argued case stating that we entered it in the middle of the 15th Century. In that one, the astrologer, Terry MacKinnel, says that because each period is over 2,000 years long, the resonance from the previous period lasts for the first several hundred years of the next one, which is why we’ve got this debate in the first place as the old Pisces-Virgo issues are getting one major examination because we’re about to get into that middle several hundred years where we’re truly in Aquarius Land.
Personally, I remain open to all interpretations but if I had to go with a theory, I think the 2020s seem like they are giving us lots of signals that this is a major turning point, and could be the “equinox” of the Dawning of the Age of Aquarius.
To bring this full circle back to the Jupiter-Saturn conjunction in 2020, the fact that it happened at 0 ° Aquarius and right near one of the four seasonal shifting points (the December Solstice) seems like a powerful indicator of the change.
Wow, I did not know that conjunctions don’t always form the look of one star! I’m guessing that has to do with the—what’s the correct word here for “differences on the ecliptic”? In other words, the up-and-down axis of outer space, same as how usually the Moon and Sun don’t “cross paths” in a way where they block each other because the Moon is above or below the ecliptic path of the Sun, but when they are on the same plane, we get eclipses. I sense you know you’re stuff so you know what I mean and maybe even the word I’m looking for. Anyway, is that why?
Yes. It must be because of the angle we are looking from on the earth, our visual plane is tilted with regard to the conjunction so the planetary objects are generally separated from each other. I have never seen two planets meeting so brightly in one spot before, it was wonderful.
I'm only an amateur astrologer, but respect astrology like you, because it works. Did you know that the English reformation started when pluto was at the same point it is now? 1 degree aquarius. Queen Elizabenth 1 was born with that degree pluto in her horoscope, she was born to Anne Boleyn. Henry 8 divorce to marry Anne and Elizabeth's birth started the reformation as he needed an heir.
Pluto in aquarius is always associated with revolutions. This one will hit the US badly, as it is the US pluto return. Every 250 years.
The jupiter, saturn, pluto conjunction throughout 2020 signifies a profound ending.
This coincided with the inception of the lies beginning with the fake "pandemic."
You are right in that many people know about their deceptions now. I hope this leads to a better outcome for humanity and release from these demonic liars and killers.
The transnationalist parasitic ruling classes, including Russia and China have more in common with each other than their own citizenry. Their first commitment is to sustain wealth and power.
Wars in Ukraine and Central Asia are battle testing weaponry to determine the most effective ways to slaughter and control humanity.
It's interesting, how most nationalistic or "true believer" soldiers are the first to be in killed in the Ukraine/Russia mess. Those same kind of young patriotic Americans will also be the first to be exterminated in Iran. That's not an issue for the parasitic ruling elites, who see nationalistic patriots as a future problem, who might oppose their gangsterism.
Humanity, is being incrementally led into a worldwide technocratic totalitarian biosecurity surveillance state. That's the only mechanism avarice psychopaths have for controlling the billions they've immiserated.
Agree with you that nationalism is a way to hide the true power which runs the planet. The "transnationalist parasitic ruling classes" are smart enough to know that they can never rule out in the open and that a global surveillance state is necessary to make sure their simulated reality is being accepted by enough people to allow it to perpetuate.
It has become horribly clear to me that the transnational coup was complete before the covid pandemic was simulated.
All attempts of mine to alert my parliamentary representatives have been blocked. My e-mails and paper letters ae not responded to. National government has been incapacitated.
I suggest you read books authored by Abba Eban so you have an understanding of the region’s history. It is easy for you sitting in your study not to take Iran’s threats to wipe Israel off the map seriously.
I readily acknowledge that I have limited understanding of the history of the area. But this essay is about the United States and its record of aggression.
Are you appalled by the fact that no other western democracies have joined in this war to protect Israel?
In your opinion what kind of damage will Iran have to sustain before Israel will be safe given the fact that we have been assured a few months ago that their nuclear weapons program has been obliterated?
Israel is the only country in the area with nuclear weapons. Historically this is a massive deterrent from any aggression. Is there something unique about the situation I am unaware of? Please share
Your first mistake is to defend Israel. Why has every state in the us been forced to declare allegiance to such a tiny nothing of a country? Look to see who is in charge and what religion they are in financial, Hollywood, all gov alphabet agencies, academia. Oy! They are the master puppeteers. This is so deep. You’re in over your head. Tbh. Masons and other cults run this world. Most of the visual cues you see are fake. CGI. ai. Are you 100% sure they are bombing the Middle East? Have you physically been there or are you just regurgitating what you hear & see from media. Magicians are not just some corner street act you know. All media is there to program you. They “broad-cast” their spells to manipulate you. Everything is symbolism. To these Marxist masons. Baal is a bull. Bull as in cerebrum. The motor capacity of the brain. Symbolic of power dominance. Middle hitting it just tells me the us is no longer at the seat of power. And it will be destroyed. Look around. These zionists have strategically taken hold of all our major institutions and systemically destroyed them. So yes. This video is just one more cue of the slow demolition of the USA. Compliments of your Zionist leaders and their fake war bs. Israel and Iran have add Keats played good cop bad cop to the public. But they are one in the same. Few people have the intelligence to see thru the smoke and mirrors. To know thy enemy. You have to study them. And how many have you actually done that? Btw. As someone who has had 6 accounts shut down for speaking truths. Ask your self who runs the shit show. “ZuckerBERG”. Responsible for destroying a generation who lack the capacity to communicate now. Step back and see the bigger picture. But don’t hyperventilate when it finally hits home.
I'm in alignment with a lot of what you are saying here. But I am most interested in providing a safe environment where such topics can be discussed so that clarity can emerge organically.
It's no surprise to me that Israel has worn out its welcome in the Middle East. If there was ever a "right to exist", Israel's has thrown it away with the ongoing genocide.
Which they have historically always done. Germany is a prime example forced to pay reparations if you know who the real culprits behind 1 & 2. They are manipulators. Sadly many only know the fake history that was spooonfed to us
When there are 2 sides it doesn't automatically mean that one has to be good and the other one bad. There is a very high possibility that both sides are equally bad and the general population is being played to choose from 2 evil...
It's also a possibility that one side is much worse than the other. One may appear to be an irritant while the other may be a pathetic bully. Another possibility is that our overlords set one up as the good cop and the other as the bad cop.
It's possible that there may be more than 2 sides. It's also possible that none of us know what's really going on, and never will, but we can get some clues by what's taken place previously. Patterns often matter, I think.
I am under no illusion we are on the side of good. But it's a much lesser evil compared to the Iranian regime, and they did and do represent a threat, we have been at war with them since 1979. The propaganda against the West is incredibly sophisticated, such that even such an intelligent person as you has been taken in by it.
Yes, it is pretty easy especially when there are so many cherries to pick. Heck, one doesn't even have to pick 'em; they're everywhere!
There are differences between history and mythology. (Hint: The standard stories are not only simplistic and one-sided, but entirely fictitious.)
Check this, for example.
“… this entire myth, so prevalent then and even now about Hitler, and about the Japanese, is a tissue of fallacies from beginning to end. Every plank in this nightmare evidence is either completely untrue or not entirely the truth.
If people should learn this intellectual fraud about Hitler's Germany, then they will begin to ask questions, and searching questions…”
It ain't Trump's war, and it ain't Netanyahu's war, this is the Financial Elites and their devious schemes. So far what is developing is looking like the Covid scamdemic. Creating financial & socioeconomic disaster by devious schemes, in this case decimating the World's energy, fertilizer and helium supply by tricking Iran to do its bidding. Just like they tricked Putin into invading Ukraine. That's the only way this moronic war makes any sense. Disaster Capitalism at its finest.
I recall that prior to the Arab Oil Embargo of 1973, leading to a World energy crisis, it was leaked from a Bilderberg meeting that they were planning to have the price of oil to take a big jump.
You will get a better understanding of what they are up to when you read about one of their most prominent stooges, who recently died, a Club-Of-Rome icon, Paul Ehrlich:
The Cruelty Is the Point, On Paul Ehrlich and Malthusian Malevolence
"The point of the essay is to point out why it is so effective."
It's effective? I watched the video twice and wasn't sure what they were trying to say. Maybe I'm just dense.
I couldn't figure out what the people in the video were looking at. At first I thought they must be looking at God. Then I thought they must be looking at a missile that was coming towards them. But they wouldn't be that calm if that was the case, so I went back to thinking they were looking at God. Then the film cut to an image of the devil.
In a counterfactual where Iran had the power of the US what would be happening now?
What about Islam's elimination of Zoroastrianism, the earlier popular religion of the Persians?
Trump can seem, let us say "a little erratic" at times. But when one of Cyrus's horses drowned in the river Gyndes, Cyrus ordered the river divided into 360 channels to destroy it's functionality (although that came from Herodotus so maybe a bit of early fake news).
Cambyses, Timur....there are plenty of Persian rulers who massacred, tortured and enslaved. If they had nukes at the time would they have shown restraint? Would Nero?
Or Genghis? Or Yhang Sui? I doubt the Japanese or the Germans would have.
When you're at the top, you make the rules. And you decide if you're going to follow them or not. That has never changed regardless of what year it is, what language you speak or what colour your skin is.
I'm a New Zealander. We've never been on top and I doubt we ever will be. We don't talk about wiping out Israel, we don't talk about America being the great Satan and we don't blow any of their shit up. And guess what, we don't get our shit blown up by them either.
Iran could be extremely wealthy and engaged with the world. It could have the best of everything with it's resource wealth. Perhaps it could even be theocratic at the same time. Perhaps that would spread Islam even more successfully.
But we'll never know because they did not choose that path.
They call themselves a great civilization with a great history and they are right. But that seems to breed arrogance and belligerence rather than the wisdom one might expect from such history.
There's a lot wrong in the West, not just the US; COVID was a shit show, I don't know what 9/11 was but I'm pretty sure it isn't what the mainstream would have us believe (mostly from following you Madhava), the GFC, Iraq, Vietnam the list goes on and on.
I understand the urge to critique, to be better, to live up to high standards.
But living in a country that has to live by what the big boys say, I'll take the US/Israel over the alternatives any day.
You can get on with them if you want to. The Abraham accords are an obvious example of that. Maybe you have to kiss the hand from time to time, but what's new in that? No one kissed Cyrus's hand?
Plenty of other nations do it. It's not such a bad life.
Sorry for the long rant, always enjoy your perspective.
The US is now a vassal state. Isn't that obvious? The Globalitarian Central Bank Psychopaths control it like most all countries in the West. Klaus Schwab even admitted as much in an interview. Most likely the list "seven countries in five years, ending with Iran" were countries that were not under the thumb of the Financial Overlords. And that's why this war with Iran, all the other excuse-of-the-day they tout, are just disinformation, don't want any of us to realize the truth.
With respect to 9/11, I always recommend that people address what happened that day in stages. The first stage is to validate (or discredit) the official story. The second stage is to determine who really did it.
For stage one, read any book by David Ray Griffin. Just to name one, you could do worse than "9/11 Unmasked". To address stage two, read "Solving 9/11: The Deception That Changed The World" by Christopher Bollyn.
"Dear Americans, reflect upon what your country has become."
Become?
Sadly, it has always been thus and it is not "our" country nor has it ever been. It began as an abominable slave trading center even before it was a country, and that is the basic truth.
They do great propaganda, and they didn't have to make shit up. Unlike us.
We didn't have to make shit up either. Me, I just listen to Iranian women. They are not making shit up.
When I first heard the term "The Great Satan" 20 years ago, I thought it was hyperbole.
The US killed a THIRD of the Korean population in the Korean War. Mostly peasant non combatants,. Entire cities were obliterated. Great Satan is correct.
The US lives in a solipsistic bubble of self-congratulation and cultural ignorance.
First of all, thank you for your courageous and indefatigable pursuit of the truth, beginning in the dark days of the COVID psy-op and continuing through these revelations of concatenating psy-ops, both retrospectively and in real time, unfolding in 2026.
We are living in a matrix of lies.
For several years I have been haunted by the words of Thomas Jefferson, "I tremble for my country when I reflect that God is just."
As a person who uses the tools of astrology to gain insight into current events, the astrology of 2026 strongly indicates the dawning of a new civilization, so I suggest we err on the side of overstating the importance of new trends, and I’d suggest this at least through the next few years.
I’m mostly speaking of the powerful Saturn-Neptune conjunction on February 20, 2026 at the very first degree of Aries, also known as the World Point.
Archetypally, meetings of Saturn and Neptune relate to challenges to the collective beliefs (Neptune) that create and uphold our reality (Saturn).
These two planets come together approximately every 35-37 years and the last time they met, in early November 1989, several days later the Berlin Wall came down, which precipitated the fall of the Soviet Empire over the next few years.
This time, the war in Iran began one week after their meeting.
But this one is much bigger than your regular meeting of these two giants, because the last time they met at 0 degrees of Aries was way back in 4361 BC, at least a few centuries before civilization is said to have begun.
In other words, just looking at the symbolism of this one planetary aspect alone advises us to take very seriously the idea that we are seeing the end of one age and the beginning of another.
But there are more powerful astrological signs that tell us 2026 truly is, and will be, one for the history books.
Relating to the massive impact media and technology such as this video are having on our world, this will likely be a continuing trend during the period of Pluto in Aquarius (roughly 2024-2044), as well as Uranus in Gemini (roughly 2026-2033) and Neptune in Aries (roughly 2026-2039).
Uranus in Gemini has coincided with all of America’s most impactful wars (Revolutionary, Civil War, and World War II), Neptune in Aries last happened during the Civil War and Pluto in Aquarius took place during the American and French Revolutions.
Pluto in Aquarius is symbolized by decentralization of power, especially relating to the impact that media and technology can give power to people and groups who may not have had it already.
Pluto entered Aquarius for a few months in 2023 before going back to Capricorn, about six months of 2024, before its final visit to Capricorn that fall and then back to Aquarius until the 2040s on November 20, 2024.
It was during this period that we saw the rapid rise in AI as well as the power in media shifting from traditional, corporate outlets in TV and newspapers to independent outlets on the Internet.
The point of all of this is that Iran’s video is surely a sign of things to come, no matter how much people try to claim that some kind of technocratic globalist prison planet is about to take over. Oh sure, they’re trying but the genie’s well out of the bottle and one of the lessons I think we can take from the COVID-19 era is that a heck of a lot more people are awake and one of the major reasons for this is because we ARE talking to and listening to each other on a global scale never before possible.
Keep your hopes alive, everyone, and find your courage and your authentic expression!
Thank you for the run down. Personally I don't believe that celestial bodies influence the way we behave collectively. However I find the possibility that their cyclical motions define time periods that signal inevitable shifts in our civilization intriguing.
You’re welcome, Madhava.
The way I understand astrology, I believe, will be in line with your idea here.
Basically, I believe it’s not that the planets and their aspects influence human behavior, but rather that their relationships in the sky are like a divinatory language, giving us humans clues about the nature of time and consciousness.
Having said that, of course the two Lights of astrology, the Sun and the Moon, clearly influence human behavior, so I’m not completely closed to the idea that there could be some connection between the planets and human consciousness.
Anyway, I’ve seen way too much evidence from looking at charts and also observing events in real time for me to not see there’s great power in having an astrological perspective. If nothing else, my daily experience has become much more profound and grounded in a sense of awe and gratitude about the Great Mystery and about the dazzling beauty and intelligence of Nature. Looking at visual graphs of the Venus Star Pattern alone is most likely to create at the very least cracks in the worldviews of those who believe everything is just random.
This statement is internally contradictory surely.
How so? I am proposing that the cycles are time keepers that mark shifts that occur of their own in civilizations at our particular stage of evolution. They don’t induce them.
What is the mechanism?
Beats the s**t of me. Never thought much of these fields until I had personal readings that were astounding. Now I am wary to discount them.
If I were to speculate, civilizations that emerge in a particular planetary system with its own orbital patterns and periods evolve in a cadence corresponding to them.
The way I currently grok astrology and practice it is that it’s not that the planets and their aspects create some sort of energy that we humans feel, but that they are like a giant clock which we can learn to read to determine psycho-spiritual patterns in human history and life.
I think the notion that they act in some way on us is a descendent of the false scientific materialist mindset, which sees everything as cause and effect and allows no room for patterned intelligence and calls everything random.
But when you consider absolutely stunning facts such as our Moon and Sun being precisely the same size from our perspective, and thus creating profound eclipses, yet being much different in actual size (so the two have to be just the right distance from Earth for this perception of ours to be true), when you grok that, you start to sense that’s there is divine intelligence at play, and it’s an intelligence in my experience which rewards careful and grateful observation.
Also, the Venus Star Point pattern which makes a perfectly symmetrical, complex flower-like pattern is stunning and awe-inspiring.
So mutually effected or generated....this must apply to living organisms not bricks and mortar. Collective development and behaviour.
Incidentally when you say "the dawning of a new civilisation", the producer of the Astrology podcast, Chris Brennan, did some historical research on the planetary shifts back in 2020 and he was rather concerned because the closest parallel was to the time Augustus took over as Emperor and the Roman republic fell. He knew that many astrologers were forecasting positive events, but the historic evidence was not so good. i dont know exactly how he looked at things. Lets hope we can do better this time.
I remeber seeing the Jupiter saturn conjunction, it was beautiful because the planets met in the sky. It did not feel malevolent. Quite the opposite.
Currer, I also watched that Jupiter Saturn conjunction and felt profoundly moved and hopeful as I did that.
I’d just begun my deep dive into astrology one year before, so it was one of my early opportunities to really participate in witnessing these major events on a chart play out in the Heavens.
At the time, I had to walk about five minutes to pick up my daughter from elementary school, usually just after sundown, and I explained to her about the conjunction, how these were the two largest planets in our solar system and how they only came together once every twenty years so this was a special event, one which she’d only see once as a kid (that was one more time than me, though, because I was unaware of that opportunity when I was a child in the early 1980s!).
Even she thought it was kind of cool as the two became close enough to look like a giant star.
And yes, I listen to the Astrology Podcast and had started by then, so I remember Brennan’s warnings.
Cool, thanks for the info. And funny you mentioned the English Reformation as I did a little fact verifying yesterday when I first wrote my comment to Madhavva and some of that spat out some information about that period, but not the particular, juicy details you shared.
Anyway, I’ve got to sign off for a while now, but I gave you a follow now so we can keep in touch!
Jupiter and Saturn conjunct every 20 years but the conjunction of 2020 was unusual in that visually they combined into one star. Usually conjunctions just slide past each other several visual degrees apart, as two objects.
It made me think of the legend of the star at the birth of Jesus - a portentous event of some kind! Pluto was invisibly behind it...so pretty total change.
Consider the Biblical evidence of idolatry and rebellion among the Children of Israel.
The “Star of Chiun” is a revealing symbol of this idolatry and rebellion. Israel made and carried the star of their god as an object of worship. This is recorded in Amos 5 and Acts 7. Amos 5:25–26 states that these rebellious Israelites created “the star of your god, which ye made to yourselves,” and carried it in the wilderness—and the rebellion did not end there. This was no splinter faction. It was a significant portion of the people, and the rebellion was not a one-time event. Four hundred years of captivity undoubtedly did grave damage to the children of Israel. Moses was on Sinai to speak with God. There, God delivered the Ten Commandments, calling the people back under His authority. These commandments were no empty ceremony. They were the very foundation of the law that followed. Yet this faction did not simply vanish, nor did the rebellious spirit behind it. While Moses was on Mount Sinai, that rebellious nature broke into the open with the creation of another idol.
The “Star of Chiun” is not a physical star, but a Biblical indictment of Israel’s idolatry—thought by many scholars to be centered on Saturn. Israel had adopted a star-marked form of idolatry in the wilderness after leaving captivity in Egypt. Israel took up false worship, bore its symbols, and made and embraced them for itself—all while claiming covenant standing. The Zionist movement’s flag, later adopted by the modern state of Israel, bears a six-pointed star at its center.
The choice of a star as the focal point of the national flag of Israel is not some meaningless accident or cosmic coincidence. Symbols, particularly religious or national symbols, are chosen for deep, abiding reasons. This star flag did not emerge by accident in Prague, nor later at the Zionist Congress in 1897. Israel’s political and religious self-presentation is deeply rooted in symbolism and events from both its ancient and not-so-ancient past.
And once again, we are told not to look, not to question, and not to connect what is sitting in plain sight.
Also, YES, I was going to mention the legend of Jesus’ birth star that the three wise men followed and how it may have been a Jupiter/Saturn conjunction. You’re bringing up Pluto suggests you may have an educated guess about when Jesus was born or maybe even a chart? If so, please share!
One astrologer I listen to, Robert Phoenix, has a theory that Christ’s actual birthday was September 11th. I don’t remember the year, but it’s a well-fleshed-out theory that I’m open to.
I do know that the birth of Christ being put on December 25th seems to be an appropriation from pagan mythologies with an astrological basis, because the Sun’s literal descent from our Earth eyes stops on December 21st and then begins to visibly rise again on the morning of December 25th. The “Sun/Son has risen!”
And also, that we can see connections to the Service-focused archetype of Virgo in the Christ story, even that he was the “Son of a Virgin Mother,” and then how it is also connects to the Pisces archetype across the Virgo-Pisces axis.
All fascinating stuff and would love to hear your thoughts!
I agree with the pisces/virgo axis for the past 2,000 years. But we are now in aquarius/leo - wonder how that will work out.
I dont have any insights into Jesus horoscope. I do wonder if he was older than his traditional age. 30 seems too young for such wisdom, and to call his followers "little children."
Yes, December was just a carryover from pagan festivals.
Currer,
Thanks for subscribing to my Substack.
I’ve been reasonably quiet in terms of content creation over the past several months, but am feeling the Call to create more work, especially the longer-form essays I’ve written in the past which I really love.
As a former media professional, over the past several years I’ve generally assigned myself media projects/goals for each year, but haven’t settled on one yet in 2026.
I’m feeling reasonably confident the idea will come to me over the next several weeks, especially after Mercury enters Aries after it’s long stay in Pisces, a transit I use each year to focus more on my playful, soulful, creative expressions, such as playing my acoustic guitar.
Anyway, I am rather active in Notes here, as I use Substack as my home base for social media, and one thing I love doing is sharing and promoting the work of others.
Now, this ties into my commitment to creating the more beautiful world our hearts know is possible, a phrase coined by my favorite contemporary philosopher, Charles Eisenstein. And that is I earnestly believe in an abundance mindset and an abundance economy which means a more Aquarian, “a rising tide lifts all boats” type of economic model in which we all cooperate and actively support each other, as opposed to a more hierarchical, competitive mindset that I call Capricorn Economics.
And that leads me to the discussion over the Great Ages and when the shifts between periods occur. This big cycles are one of my favorite topics so I’ve listened to/read a lot of opinions on the matter of whether the Age of Aquarius has begun.
The fact that there’s no unquestionable empirical way to answer this question is rather fascinating considering astrology has such precise timings.
It turns out that this relates to the reality that while the Great Ages idea goes back deep into human history, the study of it and debate over timing it wasn’t a part of the astrological tradition until the mid 1800s.
Now, if we use a system that simply references where the Sun is at the during the March Equinox to answer the question, then we’ve still got a few hundred years left of the Age of Pisces, as the Sun was at around 4 ° of Pisces in 2026 and moves about 1 ° every 72 years.
Some astrologers go with that and will stridently argue it.
Others use different methods, and say we’ve entered it recently, are entering it now or there’s even a well-argued case stating that we entered it in the middle of the 15th Century. In that one, the astrologer, Terry MacKinnel, says that because each period is over 2,000 years long, the resonance from the previous period lasts for the first several hundred years of the next one, which is why we’ve got this debate in the first place as the old Pisces-Virgo issues are getting one major examination because we’re about to get into that middle several hundred years where we’re truly in Aquarius Land.
Personally, I remain open to all interpretations but if I had to go with a theory, I think the 2020s seem like they are giving us lots of signals that this is a major turning point, and could be the “equinox” of the Dawning of the Age of Aquarius.
To bring this full circle back to the Jupiter-Saturn conjunction in 2020, the fact that it happened at 0 ° Aquarius and right near one of the four seasonal shifting points (the December Solstice) seems like a powerful indicator of the change.
All very fascinating stuff in my opinion!!
Wow, I did not know that conjunctions don’t always form the look of one star! I’m guessing that has to do with the—what’s the correct word here for “differences on the ecliptic”? In other words, the up-and-down axis of outer space, same as how usually the Moon and Sun don’t “cross paths” in a way where they block each other because the Moon is above or below the ecliptic path of the Sun, but when they are on the same plane, we get eclipses. I sense you know you’re stuff so you know what I mean and maybe even the word I’m looking for. Anyway, is that why?
Yes. It must be because of the angle we are looking from on the earth, our visual plane is tilted with regard to the conjunction so the planetary objects are generally separated from each other. I have never seen two planets meeting so brightly in one spot before, it was wonderful.
I'm only an amateur astrologer, but respect astrology like you, because it works. Did you know that the English reformation started when pluto was at the same point it is now? 1 degree aquarius. Queen Elizabenth 1 was born with that degree pluto in her horoscope, she was born to Anne Boleyn. Henry 8 divorce to marry Anne and Elizabeth's birth started the reformation as he needed an heir.
Pluto in aquarius is always associated with revolutions. This one will hit the US badly, as it is the US pluto return. Every 250 years.
The jupiter, saturn, pluto conjunction throughout 2020 signifies a profound ending.
This coincided with the inception of the lies beginning with the fake "pandemic."
You are right in that many people know about their deceptions now. I hope this leads to a better outcome for humanity and release from these demonic liars and killers.

The transnationalist parasitic ruling classes, including Russia and China have more in common with each other than their own citizenry. Their first commitment is to sustain wealth and power.
Wars in Ukraine and Central Asia are battle testing weaponry to determine the most effective ways to slaughter and control humanity.
It's interesting, how most nationalistic or "true believer" soldiers are the first to be in killed in the Ukraine/Russia mess. Those same kind of young patriotic Americans will also be the first to be exterminated in Iran. That's not an issue for the parasitic ruling elites, who see nationalistic patriots as a future problem, who might oppose their gangsterism.
Humanity, is being incrementally led into a worldwide technocratic totalitarian biosecurity surveillance state. That's the only mechanism avarice psychopaths have for controlling the billions they've immiserated.
Agree with you that nationalism is a way to hide the true power which runs the planet. The "transnationalist parasitic ruling classes" are smart enough to know that they can never rule out in the open and that a global surveillance state is necessary to make sure their simulated reality is being accepted by enough people to allow it to perpetuate.
It has become horribly clear to me that the transnational coup was complete before the covid pandemic was simulated.
All attempts of mine to alert my parliamentary representatives have been blocked. My e-mails and paper letters ae not responded to. National government has been incapacitated.
One of the best comments I've read in a long time.
I suggest you read books authored by Abba Eban so you have an understanding of the region’s history. It is easy for you sitting in your study not to take Iran’s threats to wipe Israel off the map seriously.
I readily acknowledge that I have limited understanding of the history of the area. But this essay is about the United States and its record of aggression.
Are you appalled by the fact that no other western democracies have joined in this war to protect Israel?
In your opinion what kind of damage will Iran have to sustain before Israel will be safe given the fact that we have been assured a few months ago that their nuclear weapons program has been obliterated?
Israel is the only country in the area with nuclear weapons. Historically this is a massive deterrent from any aggression. Is there something unique about the situation I am unaware of? Please share
Your first mistake is to defend Israel. Why has every state in the us been forced to declare allegiance to such a tiny nothing of a country? Look to see who is in charge and what religion they are in financial, Hollywood, all gov alphabet agencies, academia. Oy! They are the master puppeteers. This is so deep. You’re in over your head. Tbh. Masons and other cults run this world. Most of the visual cues you see are fake. CGI. ai. Are you 100% sure they are bombing the Middle East? Have you physically been there or are you just regurgitating what you hear & see from media. Magicians are not just some corner street act you know. All media is there to program you. They “broad-cast” their spells to manipulate you. Everything is symbolism. To these Marxist masons. Baal is a bull. Bull as in cerebrum. The motor capacity of the brain. Symbolic of power dominance. Middle hitting it just tells me the us is no longer at the seat of power. And it will be destroyed. Look around. These zionists have strategically taken hold of all our major institutions and systemically destroyed them. So yes. This video is just one more cue of the slow demolition of the USA. Compliments of your Zionist leaders and their fake war bs. Israel and Iran have add Keats played good cop bad cop to the public. But they are one in the same. Few people have the intelligence to see thru the smoke and mirrors. To know thy enemy. You have to study them. And how many have you actually done that? Btw. As someone who has had 6 accounts shut down for speaking truths. Ask your self who runs the shit show. “ZuckerBERG”. Responsible for destroying a generation who lack the capacity to communicate now. Step back and see the bigger picture. But don’t hyperventilate when it finally hits home.
I in no way defend Israel.
I'm in alignment with a lot of what you are saying here. But I am most interested in providing a safe environment where such topics can be discussed so that clarity can emerge organically.
I think you may have responded to the wrong person.
lol no.
The comment prior defended Israel. How did you determine that MS was to one doing that?
It's no surprise to me that Israel has worn out its welcome in the Middle East. If there was ever a "right to exist", Israel's has thrown it away with the ongoing genocide.
Which they have historically always done. Germany is a prime example forced to pay reparations if you know who the real culprits behind 1 & 2. They are manipulators. Sadly many only know the fake history that was spooonfed to us
When there are 2 sides it doesn't automatically mean that one has to be good and the other one bad. There is a very high possibility that both sides are equally bad and the general population is being played to choose from 2 evil...
It's also a possibility that one side is much worse than the other. One may appear to be an irritant while the other may be a pathetic bully. Another possibility is that our overlords set one up as the good cop and the other as the bad cop.
It's possible that there may be more than 2 sides. It's also possible that none of us know what's really going on, and never will, but we can get some clues by what's taken place previously. Patterns often matter, I think.
I am under no illusion we are on the side of good. But it's a much lesser evil compared to the Iranian regime, and they did and do represent a threat, we have been at war with them since 1979. The propaganda against the West is incredibly sophisticated, such that even such an intelligent person as you has been taken in by it.
"But it's a much lesser evil compared to the Iranian regime"
Prove that claim.
Gonna assume this is a joke.
Assume away. I'm the one laughing! ; )
Totally. Only a complete moron would ask that question in seriousness
What question?
Pretty easy to cherry pick the worst deeds of a nation while ignoring those of another… especially Iran.
It's propaganda, Andy.
Yes, it is pretty easy especially when there are so many cherries to pick. Heck, one doesn't even have to pick 'em; they're everywhere!
There are differences between history and mythology. (Hint: The standard stories are not only simplistic and one-sided, but entirely fictitious.)
Check this, for example.
“… this entire myth, so prevalent then and even now about Hitler, and about the Japanese, is a tissue of fallacies from beginning to end. Every plank in this nightmare evidence is either completely untrue or not entirely the truth.
If people should learn this intellectual fraud about Hitler's Germany, then they will begin to ask questions, and searching questions…”
- Murray Rothbard, 1966

Review of The Origins of the Second World War
As long as introspection is a Truth-Optional exercise, we are all an ocean of jelly fish stinging each other in the ass.
It ain't Trump's war, and it ain't Netanyahu's war, this is the Financial Elites and their devious schemes. So far what is developing is looking like the Covid scamdemic. Creating financial & socioeconomic disaster by devious schemes, in this case decimating the World's energy, fertilizer and helium supply by tricking Iran to do its bidding. Just like they tricked Putin into invading Ukraine. That's the only way this moronic war makes any sense. Disaster Capitalism at its finest.
I recall that prior to the Arab Oil Embargo of 1973, leading to a World energy crisis, it was leaked from a Bilderberg meeting that they were planning to have the price of oil to take a big jump.
You will get a better understanding of what they are up to when you read about one of their most prominent stooges, who recently died, a Club-Of-Rome icon, Paul Ehrlich:
The Cruelty Is the Point, On Paul Ehrlich and Malthusian Malevolence
https://www.breakthroughjournal.org/p/the-cruelty-is-the-point
"The point of the essay is to point out why it is so effective."
It's effective? I watched the video twice and wasn't sure what they were trying to say. Maybe I'm just dense.
I couldn't figure out what the people in the video were looking at. At first I thought they must be looking at God. Then I thought they must be looking at a missile that was coming towards them. But they wouldn't be that calm if that was the case, so I went back to thinking they were looking at God. Then the film cut to an image of the devil.
Sigh.
In a counterfactual where Iran had the power of the US what would be happening now?
What about Islam's elimination of Zoroastrianism, the earlier popular religion of the Persians?
Trump can seem, let us say "a little erratic" at times. But when one of Cyrus's horses drowned in the river Gyndes, Cyrus ordered the river divided into 360 channels to destroy it's functionality (although that came from Herodotus so maybe a bit of early fake news).
Cambyses, Timur....there are plenty of Persian rulers who massacred, tortured and enslaved. If they had nukes at the time would they have shown restraint? Would Nero?
Or Genghis? Or Yhang Sui? I doubt the Japanese or the Germans would have.
When you're at the top, you make the rules. And you decide if you're going to follow them or not. That has never changed regardless of what year it is, what language you speak or what colour your skin is.
I'm a New Zealander. We've never been on top and I doubt we ever will be. We don't talk about wiping out Israel, we don't talk about America being the great Satan and we don't blow any of their shit up. And guess what, we don't get our shit blown up by them either.
Iran could be extremely wealthy and engaged with the world. It could have the best of everything with it's resource wealth. Perhaps it could even be theocratic at the same time. Perhaps that would spread Islam even more successfully.
But we'll never know because they did not choose that path.
They call themselves a great civilization with a great history and they are right. But that seems to breed arrogance and belligerence rather than the wisdom one might expect from such history.
There's a lot wrong in the West, not just the US; COVID was a shit show, I don't know what 9/11 was but I'm pretty sure it isn't what the mainstream would have us believe (mostly from following you Madhava), the GFC, Iraq, Vietnam the list goes on and on.
I understand the urge to critique, to be better, to live up to high standards.
But living in a country that has to live by what the big boys say, I'll take the US/Israel over the alternatives any day.
You can get on with them if you want to. The Abraham accords are an obvious example of that. Maybe you have to kiss the hand from time to time, but what's new in that? No one kissed Cyrus's hand?
Plenty of other nations do it. It's not such a bad life.
Sorry for the long rant, always enjoy your perspective.
The US is now a vassal state. Isn't that obvious? The Globalitarian Central Bank Psychopaths control it like most all countries in the West. Klaus Schwab even admitted as much in an interview. Most likely the list "seven countries in five years, ending with Iran" were countries that were not under the thumb of the Financial Overlords. And that's why this war with Iran, all the other excuse-of-the-day they tout, are just disinformation, don't want any of us to realize the truth.
the one you asked in jest, of course.
With respect to 9/11, I always recommend that people address what happened that day in stages. The first stage is to validate (or discredit) the official story. The second stage is to determine who really did it.
For stage one, read any book by David Ray Griffin. Just to name one, you could do worse than "9/11 Unmasked". To address stage two, read "Solving 9/11: The Deception That Changed The World" by Christopher Bollyn.
"Dear Americans, reflect upon what your country has become."
Become?
Sadly, it has always been thus and it is not "our" country nor has it ever been. It began as an abominable slave trading center even before it was a country, and that is the basic truth.
