The Moon is in late Aquarius, making square aspects to the Sun and Uranus. It is a day when many of us could be very stubborn. We have our view of the world, and we’re not ready to compromise. But what are we fighting for? Is it worth the aggravation?
On a more positive note, Venus is making a sextile aspect to Mercury. It is an aspect that’s very creative, and we can create some amazing things – whether in terms of work or play.
As far as my featured charts are concerned, today’s video discusses the charts of Donald Trump and E. Jean Carroll. Carroll is the woman who made very serious allegations against Trump, which led to a court awarding her $5,000,000 in damages. Both Trump and Carroll were born close to Full Moons. Further, Carroll has Saturn in Gemini, right on Trump’s Sun and opposition his Moon. No wonder she is causing him so much damage – or is she just keeping him in the news?
Today I had a quick look at the horoscope of actor Julian Sands, who disappeared on January 13 of this year.
I didn’t find anything very spectacular, but on the day of his disappearance there was a sesquiquadrate between the Sun and Mars, and this sesquiquadrate was hitting his natal Mars. So the disappearance does seem to be a Mars event.
I therefore don’t think he got lost and died of exposure. I think it more likely that he had an accident, or was the victim of an assault, whether by an animal or a human.
Today would be the 66th birthday of punk icon Sid Vicious, born on May 10 1957. He died of a drug overdose in the early hours of February 2 1979, aged 21.
As far as today’s astrology is concerned, the main aspect is probably an opposition between the Moon in Capricorn and Mars in Cancer. Plenty of scope for arguments!
All of this and more is covered in today’s video, and if you like the content, please subscribe to my channel.
Happy Victory Day! This is the commemoration of the Soviet Union’s defeat of Germany. The surrender was signed at 11.01 pm on May 8, 1945, in Berlin, but Moscow time that was the next day, on May 9. Here’s the chart, with the eight hypotheticals included:
What is interesting about the chart is the Moon, at 5 degrees 56 minutes Aries. The Moon when Hitler came to power, on January 30 1933, around noon, was also at 5 degrees Aries. So the signing of the surrender happened on Nazi Germany’s lunar return.
It is thefore not surprising that the Moon in the Victory Day chart is poorly placed: it is conjunct Mars, opposition Neptune and square Saturn.
We also notice that there is an exact square between Zeus at 19 36 Leo and Kronos at 19 39 Taurus. Zeus is the planet of military hardware and military force, while Kronos represents government authority. Together we have the idea of a miliary occupation – though we should remember that because these planets are slow moving, the square lasted on and off for over a decade. Yet Mars at 4 38 Aries makes it special – in other words, making an exact semisquare to Kronos, an exact sesquiquadrate to Zeus. It was the final trigger.

For the last few months I have been creating a Youtube channel. It is all very low tech, but now I have got over 100 subscribers I am putting up the videos on this site. The videos are between 10 and 25 minutes, and have the following structure: opening remarks, looking at a horoscope of my choice, looking at the day’s stars, forecasts for the 12 signs, an I Ching reading and finally some closing remarks.
If you like my video, I would be really grateful if you subscribed to my channel.
