Marjorie Taylor Greene - Everything But the Kitchen Sink

Image
  In a frenzied fight to hold on to their White power the Trump Republicans are throwing it all in - everything but the kitchen sink. They elected the semi-crazy, they assaulted the Capitol and they beat the police with American flags. Trump told them to "Fight like Hell" and they did it. Marjorie Taylor Greene, a newly elected Congresswoman from Georgia, is responding to this call. Other than outright violence and intimidation, their big weapon is lies. Of course, Trump has perfected the art of the lie with his nearly 30,000 lies while in office. Truth is very inconvenient, so they trampled it. But what can possess people to act this way? What is there in their nature that makes this behavior possible? Can Astrology shed some light? The Noon Chart for Marjorie Taylor Greene is shown below. The exact birth time is not known, but some interesting information still emerges. Marjorie Taylor Greene shares a lot of energies with Trump: Gemini, Leo, Cancer, Libra and Sagittarius. I...

Inauguration vs Trump Chaos

Image
  The power of Trump to create chaos was on full display at the Capitol on January 6, 2021. The question now is what remains of his threat? Are his many followers going to stay peaceful? Only if they are forced to. Astrologically, with his Sun and North Node in conjunction to Uranus in the 10th House and with his Mars conjunct Ascendant, Trump's propensity to break laws and to incite rebellion and violence is not surprising. Presently the collective unconscious is stirred up by the approaching conjunction of Mars and Uranus in Taurus. The exact is on January 20, 2021. On this day these energies will fuse with a great impetus to rebellion and violence. Trump's followers, who abandoned reason and control, are seething with this energy. Mars aggression often breaks out earlier than the exact. The astrological chart for Inauguration day is shown below.  On the 20th the Moon will be midpoint between the Mars-Uranus conjunction and the dwarf planet Eris which is associated with chao...

January 6, 2021: Trump's Assault on Congress

Image
  The events of January 6, 2021 happened because of the interplay of Trump and his base. The character of Trump's most ardent supporters was such that he was able to spur them to violent action. Trump cultivated his most extreme followers to use as his weapon. They cooperated beautifully and even committed murder for him. Trump, of course, did not slam the policeman who died. Trump knows how to evade the law and have others do his dirty work. Just ask Michael Cohen. Violent movements are carried out by those in society who are most impassioned and have the least inhibition about using violence. We are not all created equal when it comes to propensity for violence. Some have much shorter fuses. Sociopaths and psychopaths don't have much regret either. There are times in history when violence and revolution run rampant. Richard Tarnas in his book "Cosmos and Psyche" traces mass events and co-relates them to specific planetary configurations. The Saturn-Pluto stressful a...

Sidney Powell and the "release of kraken"

Image
Trump's attorney Sidney K. Powell promised to "release the kraken" through her election lawsuits. Kraken is a "sea monster in Scandinavian folklore that emerges from the sea to devour its enemies". However, all the lawsuits failed due to lack of evidence. This does not deter Powell who claims that the vote counting software is the same as used by Hugo Chavez in Venezuela. But since Chavez has been dead since 2013, there is no way to verify this. Maybe that is the point. Does truth really matter? For Trump it is all about winning. Cheating is acceptable. Lies are acceptable. Crazy is not only acceptable, but desirable.  What kind of lawyer would promote ideas for which there is no evidence? Who would work against facts, logic and truth? Can Astrology shed some light on this behavior? In Astrology the planetary energies associated with chaotic thinking and rebellion are primarily due to Uranus, Neptune and Eris. These planets feature prominently in Donald Trump...

Inside Trump's Sociopathic Echo Chamber

Image
  No amount of racism can change the US racial composition. The USA is a diverse country and that is reality. The original sin of slavery was due to greed. Without thinking of the consequences, wealthy Southerners brought in hundreds of thousands of slaves. Slaves were treated more like livestock than human beings. Their human rights and equality were denied at every turn. White slave owners wanted the wealth, but did not want to live alongside their slaves. Selfishness and greed is what brought in slavery. Fast-forward 243 years, and in Trump we have a narcissistic president who personifies selfishness and greed. Now past the November 3rd election, Republicans are screaming that the votes of Blacks and other minorities are fraudulent. This without proof and based solely on their prejudice about minorities. People of color have been labelled as corrupt and criminal. The Republican base wants to see all the social evils in these minority people, not in themselves. And yet, in Donald...

RBG and Antonin Scalia: An Unlikely Friendship

Image
The two, now deceased, justices of the Supreme Court, Ruth Bader Ginsburg and Antonin Scalia had an unusual, yet true friendship. They managed it in spite of being most often on the opposite sides of the Court's decisions. For RBG the issue that was of prime concern was the equality of women. To her equality meant that women should be in charge of their bodies. She wrote: "The state controlling a woman would mean denying her full autonomy and full equality." Antonin Scalia certainly had no such concerns. He never strayed far from the teachings of the Catholic Church which are based on a patriarchal society of 2000 years ago. From that perspective women were just reproductive vessels to be used by men. Yes, there seems to be an elevation of the Virgin Mary in the Catholic Church, which could just be a cover-up for the fact that Mary was an unwed pregnant teen. They sold the virgin birth really hard and it stuck. How could an intelligent man like Scalia buy into these irrat...

Trump and the American Psyche

Image
  Donald Trump demonstrates power by humiliating and defeating others. To Trump power means a crude and cruel infliction of pain. The image below is how he is imagined leaving the Oval Office. This is both funny and sad. Trump can't admit he is a loser. He is dependent on the adoration of others to feel good. Astrologically, this is indicated by his Saturn being in conjunction to Venus and also quincunx to his Moon. He risked millions of lives with his insane rallies because adoration was more important to him than the lives of those people. It is no accident that Coronavirus is spiking in places he visited and that over 130 Secret Service agents tested positive. Trumpism has become a death cult. Trump has been dislodged from the summit of power. For an insecure narcissist it must feel like death. He is rage tweeting and denying that he lost. The Republicans are afraid to confront him. Mary Trump believes he will break as many things as he can on his way out. Lawsuits and jail awai...
