A lot of astrologers are noting that Chiron makes an exact return to 20° Gemini 08′ @ 5:21 am EST, the position it held when the Declaration of Independence was signed on July 4, 1776. This is significant.
Previously, Chiron (in retrograde) hit this same spot on November 7, 2024, just after the re-election of Donald J. Trump as President. Some are wondering if the direct motion will undo the damage done by that previous placement. I’m wondering that, too.
Admittedly, there is a lot wrong with the United States these days. Trump seems to be trying to cut out the rot in his first 100 days, this time. As I’ve noted previously, America is acting like the Roman Empire in its death throes. To be honest, this happens to every ‘kingdom’ that exists.
My Norwegian friend, Christina, sent me a message yesterday wondering if I had seen anything in the astrology charts lately about some “Creation Point” conjunction between Saturn and Neptune @ 0° Aries. Now, I usually try not to go too far into the future, if I can help it, since it’s almost impossible to accurately predict how a certain configuration of planets could affect us. She had seen a YouTube video from Pam Gregory which breathlessly expressed excitement for the next couple of years.
Well, I know it’s an astrologer’s job to warn of upcoming events but sometimes turning that into click-bait cheapens it, at least for me. Evidently, the last time Saturn and Neptune were exactly conjunct in Aries (this time @ 11°) the date was March 17, 1703 (O.S.) in the middle of the Age of Enlightenment.
The Age of Enlightenment, sometimes called the Age of Reason, refers to the time of the guiding intellectual movement, called The Enlightenment. It covers about a century and a half in Europe, beginning with the publication of Francis Bacon’s Novum Organum (1620) and ending with Immanuel Kant’s Critique of Pure Reason (1781). From the perspective of socio-political phenomena, the period is considered to have begun with the close of the Thirty Years’ War (1648) and ended with the French Revolution (1789).
We started watching this show on Disney+ last Friday, and we’ll probably see episode 7 tonight. Whether we’ll bother with season 2 remains to be seen.
I assumed from the very start that the role Jeff Bridges plays was The Old Man. It turns out that the assassin hired to eliminate him was actually that person. That came as a surprise.
It’s a gritty, violent show, but one that uncovers the subtlety of all forms of relationship. Both main protagonists (Harper and Chase) act as father figures for their ‘daughter’ Emily/Angela, who is acting as a mole in the FBI. But her actual father wants to bring her back to him, and that I guessed by the 3rd episode. (I know, I know: aren’t I the clever one?)
Since the events in the present are anchored in the past (more than 30 years ago), all the men are old. Will they succeed? Is Emily/Angela in danger? Does any of it matter?
Well, I stand corrected. Yes, he was a mental patient when he died, but it took a shawl found at the scene of the crime of one of the murders to point us in the right direction.
Do you want to see his randomized birth chart?
Because his time of birth is unknown, this time provides a snapshot, but cannot be a definitive overview.
Mercury Inconjunct Neptune
The challenge of this aspect is to make your thinking and communication with others more clear. Your rational mind is strongly influenced by your sensitivity, imagination and ideals, although you aren’t always sure how this happens. You tend to spend too much time in your own imaginary world that no one else can share, and this confuses your dealings with others. You will have to learn to face reality, so that you can at least communicate with people. Otherwise you will have a very lonely life.
I was watching a YouTube video about the Rosicrucian rules that basically came to the forefront of people’s thinking in the 17th Century. I may have heard it wrong, but Dr. Justin Sledge said there was a conjunction between Jupiter and Saturn in Pisces in 1603. Well, that got my attention.
But when I did an internet search for dates when these two planets were conjunct in Pisces, the precise date was May 3, 1583. That seemed a bit of a stretch to think it was in 1603. Then I looked up contenders for the Jewish Messiah during those years, and the closest one was actually born in 1626. As I have already looked at his birth and death previously, there’s no reason to do so again: Sabbatai Zevi.
This post is actually about the Magi seeing an astrological portent in the conjunction of these two planets in Pisces, all those years ago. That made me decide to revisit the exact moment that the Star first appeared.
There is speculation that this first conjunction may have been when Jesus was conceived. Rising in the east may refer to an earlier time of day, say 1:30 am local time. The conjunction would have been just coming up over the horizon. And because the Sun and Moon conjunction would have been below the horizon, the Star would have been a spectacular sight. Here’s the chart:
With the Sun/Moon conjunction in Gemini being inconjunct with Neptune in Scorpio, I can see why the Magi were impressed. This is a significant event. So, I wondered if the 1583 conjunction was similarly impressive.
Yes, it does match, as far as the rising Star is concerned, but this time the Moon is setting in the west. Messianic fever started to foment following this celestial event, but, even though the star is rising again, the rest of the chart doesn’t support the significance of the original chart. That’s why Sabbatai Zevi failed in his quest to be the Messiah. It also implies that the return should have happened within 9 months. You cannot make this stuff up, even if the world was hoping against hope for a Jewish Saviour.
Lately, I’ve been looking at all forms of accidents and terrorist attacks. One thing that keeps coming through is the role that Venus makes in the procedures.
As we’ve been reporting for the last week or so, the planets have been forming a visible alignment in the night sky. Venus is the most visible planet of all. At the precise moment that the American Airlines plane and the Army Blackhawk helicopter collided in the mid-air, Venus was on the Descendant, conjunct both Saturn (on one side) and Neptune (on the other). All three planets are (naturally) in opposition to the Ascendant @ 21° Virgo. Is this significant? I think so. People are united in love and sorrow.
After a minute of silence to honour the 67 people who died, #47 decided to blame previous Democrat presidents for allowing DEI principles to be used for the FAA’s hiring practices. Well, that’s rich, because as president between 2017 and 2021, when he was #45, he could have stopped those practices, but he didn’t. It’s a case of deflecting blame away from himself, as usual.
But, at least, he did preface the accusation as his ‘opinion’.
This post will demonstrate how my mind works, especially when I’m trying to connect the dots.
Let’s watch a YouTube video together, shall we?
The simple truth that we are gods escapes our ‘normal’ attention, but when we meditate we open ourselves up to receiving the Light, which is represented as a lightning flash through the chakra system.
Then the whole Tree of Life becomes a reality. And the Flaming Sword, meant to keep us from achieving access to the Tree of Life (as described in the Bible verse), becomes the means by which we can, in fact, return to the Garden of Eden (the Garden of Delight = the Garden of the Light).
If you only watch episode 1, you’ll be forgiven if it feels a little like the Gerard Butler series of films about protecting the President. But this one has a twist, and it requires a huge suspension of belief.
The title is the clue, but it’s not as if we’ve never seen this idea before. I can’t reveal what that twist is, but the show I’d seen before has a person realize that not all is as it seems when he hears the record of birdsong repeat itself too frequently. Do you remember that show? Also, if I’m being perfectly honest, this place should be on Mars, not here on Earth.
What I will say for this show is the use of 1980’s and 1990’s music in the soundtrack. Each episode so far has a least one hit that strikes a chord of recognition.

The music alone might be worth the price of admission. “Paradise” airs on Disney+.
I went looking for this image after watching this morning’s YouTube video from “Ask the Spirit Guides“. Karen thinks it was a UFO plane, but her description and her drawing suggest something else.
Please watch the video on YouTube.
Here’s what some other people captured on video last night:
