Standing back from the apocalyptic panic of the moment egged on by a sensationalist media and general population jitters, it is as well to remember that the cauldron of history is and always has been constantly bubbling. What seems insupportable now has been worse before and life moved one.
Astrology does give broad sweep indicators – viz. recently the UK jolted and jangled through Uranus in Taurus impacting its wide Fixed Grand Cross and managed to rollick through five prime ministers in that time.
What the USA faces ahead is largely Neptunian until 2032 with a few extras (below). Tr Neptune will square the US financial Venus from late this month, continuing on to further dent confidence in cash and self-assurance when it squares Jupiter in 2027 to early 2028; with a final undermining square to the US Cancer Sun mid 2030 to early 2032.
Adding to the drift and indecision will be the Solar Arc Sun square the US Neptune, exact in later 2027, which ends a nerve-stretched and destructive phase from mid 2024 (SA Saturn conjunct Mars and square Neptune).
2027 may be a key year since it sees the start of two years of tr Pluto opposition the USA ‘leadership’ Leo North Node bringing a reckoning with the past. The USA North Node was severely dented by tr Neptune in opposition at 9/11. It did not point to an attack as much as coinciding with a sense of national humiliation.
There is, of course the Uranus Return July 2027 to mid 2028, around at the start of the American Civil War and the aftermath of Pearl Harbour. But history never repeats itself exactly, nor does astrology. You can’t step into the same river twice. There are always different influences from other planets. It will be significant but in a different way.
The 2028 election looks gridlocked and to a degree despairing with a yod of Pluto sextile Neptune inconjunct Mars and a bitterly argumentative Mercury square Pluto. The 2029 Inauguration won’t be as dictatorial as the 2025 Inauguration but will be volatile with a 10th house Pluto trine Uranus trine Mars, with Mars opposition Moon Neptune. Some changes pushed through, some risk and a confused, disillusioned electorate. There is also Saturn square Pluto for hardship, deprivation, a tough struggle which may be financial.
The 2032 election has tr Uranus Saturn in Cancer square Mars – excitable, with tensions surfacing. Though a chance to push for positive changes – Uranus conjunct Saturn = merging the best of the old with the best of the new.
The 2033 Inauguration is much more upbeat with a super-confident Jupiter Pluto Sun in the 10th. Admittedly there will be some bully-boy behaviour and frustration from Mars in the 7th house of allies/enemies square Pluto. Tr Uranus Saturn will be moving during this term across the USA Venus, Jupiter, Saturn so again pushing for change.
For what it is worth, the war-mongering Saturn square Pluto may not involve a war. See previous posts (below) and if there are, my suspicion might be they will be Middle Eastern rather than in the west.
