There are fears of a retreat away from a civilized stance on same sex marriage in the USA with a plea to the Supreme Court to overrule a 2015 landmark decision making it a fundamental right.
Kim Davis, a former Kentucky county clerk who was jailed for six days in 2015 after refusing to issue marriage licenses to a gay couple on religious grounds is on the legal war path seeking to overturn the Obergefell v Hodges ruling which extended marriage rights for same-sex couples under the 14th Amendment’s due process protections.
There have been various steps along the way of legalizing same sex marriages across all states in the USA since 2004. The most recent 26 June 2015 is showing signs of distress with the Mars Sun conjunction in early Cancer catching the tr Saturn Neptune square exactly now and into 2026; continuing into 2027. Plus over this winter tr Uranus opposition the Saturn in Scorpio pitting progressives against reactionaries.
Kim Davis, 17 September 1965 9.45pm Morehead, Kentucky, belongs to a fundamentalist Christian movement, which favors a literal interpretation of the Bible. She has said she believes that “we are living in end times.” And reinforced her view that the Bible is infallible.
Despite her piety she has been married four times to three husbands with a variety of children, some born within wedlock, others not. Shortly after the same-sex marriage license controversy, she switched from the Democratic Party to the Republican Party.
She was born 6 days after Bashar Assad, the former Syrian dictator, and has Saturn in Pisces in her 10th opposition Uranus Pluto in Virgo conjunct Mercury in her 4th square a Gemini Moon on her Ascendant. Highly strung, emotionally reactive, scattered, erratic. She also has Mars Neptune in vengeful Scorpio square her Midheaven and trine her Saturn.
Her Mercury conjunct Pluto echoes the USA’s dogmatic, intransigent Mercury opposition Pluto, making the country susceptible to rabble rousers with dinosaur brains.
Tr Saturn and Neptune are square her 1st house Jupiter across the winter denting her confidence. Further ahead she will face a life-changing series of devastating calamities in 2027/28 as her Solar Arc Uranus Pluto conjunct her Mars Neptune.
Although her plea to the Supreme Court seems outlandish and absurd, there are worrisome crossovers. Both she and SCOTUS, 24 September 1789, have Saturn in Pisces (= regretful about the past); both have Venus in early Scorpio; and her determined, publicity-seeking Mars Neptune is conjunct SCOTUS North Node and square its Pluto – though that could swing either way.
Her relationship chart with SCOTUS points to movement over the winter though not maybe in her favour but there looks to be continuing pressure for two/three years ahead. Given the justices who are “originalists”, sticking to the mandates issued 250 years ago, anything is possible.
Davis’ relationship chart with the USA looks deflated in 2026 but again is likely to be still causing ripples into 2027.
I know Cancer clings onto the past (tho’ I know several who are very forward looking) but I struggle to understand why the USA is so vulnerable to ??? – creationism for heaven’s sake; and other whacko religious zealots plus anti-government militias. All western countries have all these bizarros in odd pockets but nowhere near as visibly.
