When there has been stagnation, which there has been on the political scene in the USA for many years, then an atmosphere of mistrust proliferates. When this happens, inferior people come to power. Ordinary people get lost in a labyrinth of misinformation; people of principle are helpless to change the course of events. They are faced with two choices: to disengage completely or silently participate and become tainted by the toxic tide.

Astrology works so well – in retrospect. The future is murky territory and navigating that territory through predictions is a dangerous game – rewarding when you get it right, very forgettable when you get it wrong. Every time, with Trump, I get it wrong. But, getting things wrong is the first stage of getting things right in the end, certainly in consultations, when intelligent questioning finally leads to a correct understanding. You can do that with clients, but not with politics.
Nu hvor Guds hånd har skubbet kuglen af vejen, og JD Vance har kysset ringen som håbefuld vicepræsident, har udsigten til et højreekstremt Trump-præsidentskab i 2025 destabiliseret demokratiske tilhængere i USA, rystet europæiske ledere, mens Zelenskyy frygter nu udsigten til at bekæmpe Rusland uden amerikansk bistand. Vance har sagt, at han ærlig talt er ligeglad med, hvad der sker i Ukraine, og Trump sælger ideen om, at han kan løse konflikten på én dag. Åh, glad dag for Vladimir Putin.
Men vinder Trump i november?
Europe was in ruins. Refugees were everywhere. German cities were reduced to rubble and dust, and Germany itself was split into zones controlled by England, the US, France, Soviet Union. In the aftermath of World War 2, the Soviet Union had taken over all of Eastern Europe. As Winston Churchill commented:
“From Stettin in the Baltic to Trieste in the Adriatic an “iron curtain” has descended across the continent.” This represented a great success for the Soviet Union, much to the alarm of the Western powers. …Read More
Theoretically, if astrology is effective, it should surely not be difficult to predict an election result between two candidates. But there is no one astrological technique that can be relied upon. What works for one election, may not work for another. It’s the odd anomaly that reveals the winner. You have to be able to read the prevailing winds to see which of the candidate’s sails are going to be filled. You will also have to fight confirmation bias. For example, I predicted Hillary Clinton would win in 2016 despite the obvious signs that Trump would – his MC progressed entering Leo and his Sun progressed conjoining his Ascendant. I refused to see the astrological evidence before my own eyes.

Elon Musk has a lot of goals in life and is achieving them at a rapid pace. He has electrified the car industry. He is even automating the driving, making Tesla cars without steering wheel or pedals. (Note 1) He has developed the only humanoid robot that learns as it observes using AI – the Optimus. (Note 2) He has successfully developed a brain-computer interface – Neuralink – which ultimately can restore lost functionality like sight and hearing. (Note 3) He has developed and distributed in space the Starlink satellite system, making the internet available worldwide (for which Ukraine is eternally grateful for).
But his baby is SpaceX.
When the war in Ukraine is over, the war in Russia will be just beginning. It’s people, who have prided themselves on defeating Nazi Germany in 1945, will be wondering how they themselves slowly became enrolled in a Fascist regime, which systematically undermined their rights of free speech and free assembly and perpetrated war crimes again a brother nation who shared much of their culture.
If someone claimed they could predict my future, I’d tell them to get lost. They would need a request from me first, and that’s the first rule of prediction: the person needs to request it. Nevertheless, the entire astrological tradition is based on the ability to predict how the future unfolds. If you know where planets have been, and what that meant, and you know where planets are going, then you can predict what will happen. That’s what astrology does.
Dreams are very useful. In the relaxed state of sleep, our minds can reshuffle the events of the day, sometimes bringing important themes to light, sometimes just depositing extraneous thoughts into the rubbish bin. It could be compared to a nightly optimization of our mental hard disk, giving trillions of neurons the opportunity to clear the mind in preparation for the next day.
One of the extraordinary things about dreams is that while we are dreaming them, they seem real. It’s a great relief to wake up from a nightmare, when we may have done something awful, or someone may have done something awful to us, and then to discover it was just a dream. Buddhist teachers point out that precisely the same process is happening in our waking life too – we think it is real.
