I am a reporter with a unique beat. I use my understanding of planetary cycles to provide advance notice and analysis on the Zeitgeist of the day. If you have ever wondered “why is this happening now,” my insights will transform your experience of the headlines, adding new meaning and understanding. Call it Astrology for News Junkies. If you’re curious to know why the Impossible Burger is trending…or why the outcome of the 2019 Israeli elections was likely to be a shocker …or why “Woodrow Wilson, Stud Muffin” was a New York Times headline in December 2013, you will find it here, in over a decade’s worth of historical research and reporting.
Note that I do use astrological jargon in The Forecast in my effort to show how the planetary patterns are reflected in mundane events. I explain what the jargon symbolizes, so that all who want to understand the connections between astrology and the news may do so. However, I do not use astrological jargon in personal consultations, just plain English.

A pause, while we look at the chart for the Full Moon in Aries, set in Washington, DC:
Observations:
Considering that Mercury and Venus are wrapping up their shadow periods, Beth Owl’s Daughter’s Tarot Card of the Week offers an image of quiet, earthly satisfaction over recent REtrograde contemplation and RElease, secure in the belief that you are being true to yourself. Well done!
Back to the daily Forecast:
And now, the news.
There was lots to report with respect to leaders, as the Sun opposed Neptune (scandal, idealism, vision), then trined Pluto (depth, power, resources), then activated the Aries Point in sync with the Autumnal Equinox. For one thing, the UN General Assembly met last week, and thus there were plenty of world leaders in town. Meanwhile, we had Mercury trining Jupiter for the third time — as noted earlier.
Two big, idealistic, healing initiatives launched last week in the US:

A pause, while we discuss the significance of this change of seasons.
Back to the day-by-day Forecast:
And now, the news.
Headlines over the weekend were sponsored in part by these patterns:
The Sun-Uranus trine suggested themes of aviation, cooperation among leaders, technology – and maybe a bit of astrology. Here’s one:
UPDATE: on Elon Musk, whom I’ve been writing about since 2013. Astrologers now have a potentially reliable birth time for Musk, reported in a recent biography, all 688 pages of it. Here is the horoscope. Turns out he has a 13 Cancer Ascendant, with Mercury sitting right on it, squared by Uranus (and Uranus also squares his Cancer Sun). He needs to be seen as a family man, but with Uranus in the mix, we appreciate why it’s a family that defies the norm. We see how his need to think and communicate would make a powerful first impression. It’s fascinating that his Virgo Moon — ruler of his Ascendant (how he needs to be seen) — is at 8 Virgo, which is where Mercury was when it turned direct last week. The 7:30 AM birth time might be off by a bit, but if it is accurate to the minute, it supports life developments happening in 2014-2015, when Uranus and Pluto would have been square and opposite his Ascendant, respectively. Themes of his innovation and empowerment were all over the news. Note that since 2022, transiting Pluto is now square his (presumed) 28 Aries Midheaven — a pattern in effect through the end of 2023. This Midheaven gives us fascinating midpoint pictures, one of which is Jupiter/Pluto – MC. The Jupiter/Pluto midpoint is a point of potential power and resources, and to see it configured with Musk’s Midheaven — public status, career, and reputation — makes perfect sense. We could talk for hours about his horoscope — and how recent headlines of shocking overreach as defense contractor (how apt for a double Cancer to be involved in homeland security), are aptly timed.
In other news…
Meanwhile…
The square between Venus in Leo (dramatic social expression) and Jupiter in Taurus (expansive need for material/sensual comforts) suggested possible overindulgence. Cue Rep. Lauren Boebert and her skimpy Venus-in-Leo gold lame dress, with a performance that got the vaping, pistol-packing, Church Lady impersonator/grandmother (and her date) tossed out of a Denver theater (!) for explicit, boundary-pushing groping activity, as well as vaping (that was denied…until the theater’s security tape was released.) We can appreciate Boebert’s need to be disruptive, given her Sun-Uranus conjunction in Sagittarius (activated by last week’s New Moon at 22 Virgo). Her Mars-Jupiter conjunction in Pisces suggests an abundance of physical energy, and coupled with a Venus-Pluto conjunction in Scorpio, we can appreciate the potential for emotional extremes. We don’t have a birth time, but Boebert was born on December 19, 1986 in Alamonte Springs, FL. Her Moon is in Gemini, suggesting she needs to be the smartest, most entertaining kid in the room.
In the spirit of this week’s Sun-Neptune opposition, here’s one reporter’s account of how she finally kicked her vaping habit. And here’s how another woman connects with drug users to keep them from dying. This story reflects themes of Saturn in Pisces — structure, fear of isolation, empathy, and controls.
More incidents of Venus square Jupiter wretched excess include:
Here’s an apt story of excess involving art, money and worth: “Danish artist who submitted empty frames as artwork told to repay funding.” The artwork — which was supposed to be a recreation of an earlier work about the relative incomes of average Danes and Austrians — was entitled Take the Money and Run. Shades of nebulous Neptune in this one!
Also reflecting tension involving matters of worth: UAW president Shawn Fein was on Face the Nation yesterday, arguing for automakers to place greater value on workers (who are striking). We don’t have a birth date for Fein.
It’s noteworthy that two talk show hosts — Drew Barrymore and Bill Maher — announced before Mercury turned direct that they’d be back in production, despite the fact that writers and actors are still on strike. Both hosts have now tabled that idea, as negotiations between labor and management will begin this week (as Mercury moves forward). Gosh, it would be so nice if they came to terms around next week’s trine between Mercury and Jupiter…but that may still be too soon.
Meanwhile, the big news this morning was:
Elsewhere…
A New Moon is apt for closed-door meetings and other clandestine activity. On Saturday, indicted Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton was acquitted by the Texas Senate of the impeachment charges brought against him by Texas House Republicans (sound familiar)? Axios reports:
Finally…lookie! They just found the missing F-35, which apparently went into something called “zombie mode.” Yep, that’s surreal. Here’s to a few more days of the surreal…

Friday 9/15/23 & The Weekend: Looking Back (Continued); Living Large; Mercury Direct
/in The ForecastTGIF!
Much is happening astro-logically, especially in the horoscope of the United States. Gotta write about it, and especially for those Avid Readers and Avid Listeners who find my efforts valuable enough to support — either monthly or randomly — this forecast is for you, with much gratitude.
Here’s a reminder of patterns carrying us into the weekend:
No sleeping in on Monday. The Moon will not be void. Humming in the background through the weekend is the annual opposition between the Sun and Neptune, exact next Tuesday. Here are headlines from the Sun-Neptune opposition in 2017.
And now, the news.
On Monday, I wrote about a pattern among the outer planets that appears to be reflected in the ginormous scale events we are experiencing. Pluto (power & resources) — now back in earthy Capricorn — is in a trine to Uranus (the disruptor), also in an Earth sign (Taurus). There’s rush of activity in global affairs, as certain leaders in certain countries scramble to structure and control earthly resources, either through cooperative ventures or by fiat. Neptune — which dissolves and/or idealizes whatever it touches — is in between Uranus and Pluto, in a harmonious aspect (a sextile) to both. Neptune is in Pisces, which refers to refugees, wipeouts, oceans, and floods. Saturn (loss, structure, strategy, karma) is also in Pisces, a sign which also refers to endings.
Here’s historian Heather Cox Richardson with the latest on North Korean leader Kim Jung Un’s train trek to Russia, where he and Vladimir Putin talked about alliances. For contrast, HCR then summed up the highlights from “a major speech today at the Johns Hopkins School of Advanced International Studies, Secretary of State Antony Blinken.”
There’s a rush of activity on the planet, too — and here, I’m talking about the devastating floods, fires, heat waves, seismic events, and other climate change disruptions that are commanding the headlines, as in:
“UN says most Libya flood deaths could have been avoided, as reports emerge of how 7-meter wave ‘wiped out’ buildings”
“Strange lights spotted in Morocco earthquake videos may be a phenomenon reported for centuries, scientists say”. “Earthquake lights?”
Hong Kong issues No 1 typhoon warning as Haikui nears; billions of dollars in economic losses estimated from Saola. Two storms in a week?
Record-breaking wildfires have occurred all over the Northern Hemisphere during 2023, new report finds
The world has just experienced the hottest summer on record – by a significant margin
Now, planets don’t do anything (as my teacher Noel Tyl used to say). “PEOPLE DO!” (he would then roar). And yet, there is a fascinating synchronicity between planetary patterns and events in life development. Go figure. Astrology is amazing.
Another pattern worth noting is Jupiter, which turned retrograde last month at 15 degrees of Taurus. Jupiter is currently close to Uranus, though the two won’t be exactly conjunct until April 20, 2024. Avid Readers will recall that Jupiter expands whatever it touches, and thus when Jupiter connects with Uranus, we anticipate an expansion of disruption…and since both are in Taurus, the disruption will be noticed in all things related to Taurus (land, material possessions, money, etc.). Got that? Point is, there’s arguably a BIG (Jupiter) WAKE-UP CALL (Uranus) in the news with respect to our collective earthly home (TAURUS), and we’re likely to see a re-emphasis of this wake-up call next April, for better (there’s always an upside!) or for worse.
Meanwhile…
The horoscope of the United States is receiving the fourth hit (almost!) of its Pluto Return, i.e., transiting Pluto is within minutes of an exact contact with the US natal Pluto.. Note that the contact won’t be exact — but it’s definitely being “felt”! But right now, Pluto is at 28 degrees of Capricorn, traveling backwards through that sign. Pluto turns direct on October 11 at 27 degrees 54 minutes of Capricorn. The US natal Pluto is at 27 degrees 32 minutes of Capricorn. Soooooooo close…and Pluto will stay at 27 degrees Capricorn until the end of October.
Until 2022, the US had never experienced this pattern, because it takes Pluto almost two and a half centuries to travel around a horoscope. However, as explained in this post from January 2022, the US has gone through periods when transiting Pluto was in a challenging aspect to the US natal Pluto, which means we can learn from past experience and know what to expect. And what we can expect is a shift in the balance of power and resources, which changed in the early 80s with trickle-down, voodoo Reaganomics (with transiting Pluto square Pluto)…and changed in the mid-30s with FDR’s New Deal (with Pluto opposing Pluto). This past experience is the astro-logic behind the economic policies advanced by the Biden administration — and here’s an example with respect to the newly declared auto workers’ strike — as it seeks to move power and resources away from a concentration in the hands of the 1%, and into the hands of everyone else. Got that? Astro-logically, it is time for a shift in the balance of power and resources in the United States, suggested by patterns it its horoscope. Another possibility — reflecting Plutonian breakdown and transformation in the extreme — is that the whole system crumbles and is born again in some other form.
Not being psychic, I’m not prepared to offer an anticipation of precisely what will happen, but I sure hope you are prepared to cast an informed vote in all upcoming elections. To check your voter registration status (which you should do periodically, to make sure you haven’t been (Plutonically) purged from the rolls), go here.
Anyhoo…
Now that you understand that Pluto will turn direct on October 11, and is beginning to slow down to a virtual standstill...and you understand how Pluto’s themes of power and resources are being received in the horoscope of the United States…
…you can understand why certain things happened in Congress this week, now that certain lawmakers are back from their summer vacation:
We can appreciate the squeeze McCarthy is feeling, given that in the last two weeks of August, his horoscope received the second of three passes of Saturn to his natal t-square, which includes his natal Saturn (yes, he’s having a Saturn return), which squares an opposition between his righteously opinionated Sagittarius Moon (the man desperately needs to feel respected) and his adaptable Gemini Ascendant. He also had a Mars return, and when Jupiter turned retrograde, it was oh-so-close to an exact conjunction with his Jupiter (so he’s feeling mightily expansive, in addition to feeling mightily energized and mightily ambitious/confined).
We should keep an eye on the first two weeks of January, when Saturn hits that t-square for the third time…and if he managed to hold on to his gavel, we should watch the end of March 2024 and all through April. That’s when Mars will oppose his Mars (so he can see what the seeds planted now will reap); Jupiter will finally meet up with his Jupiter; and Neptune will begin a series of oppositions to his perfection-seeking Mars. That might feel like waves washing away footprints in the sand…and it sets him up for a dramatic life change in January 2025.
Meanwhile…

There’s so much more to write about…so stay tuned.
In closing, in your own personal world, the weekend’s Venus-Jupiter square suggests potential for a grand old time. Venus refers to fashion, of course — and here’s what they were wearing at New York’s Fashion Week, which just wrapped. Venus refers to art, and note the timing of this obituary:

Monday 9/11/2023: Sneak Peek at the Week; New Moon in Virgo; Mercury Direct; Go Fly A Kite
/in The ForecastGood morning from New York (though it will be late afternoon or early evening by the time this is written and published because research).
Highlights for this last week of Mercury retrograde are:
It goes like this:
Here is the New Moon in Virgo, set in Washington, DC:
Observations:
Back to the daily forecast:
No sleeping in on Monday. The Moon will not be void. Humming in the background through the weekend is the annual opposition between the Sun and Neptune, exact next Tuesday. Here are headlines from the Sun-Neptune opposition in 2017.
Here’s how Beth Owl’s Daughter’s always-in-sync Tarot Card of the Week sees it.
And now, the news.
This headline — published at 9:38 AM ET on September 9th — caught my eye:
We’re talking about women’s basketball here. The Mystics are in DC; the Dream play in Atlanta. The headline contains words associated with Neptune (mystics, dream), and I was inspired to look at the chart for the headline for corroboration. I didn’t write about Neptune in last week’s forecast. Why was I seeing this symbolism now?
Take a look at the chart for the New Moon in Virgo, and you’ll see an answer to my question — in the form of a sneak peek of a much-anticipated future exact alignment among Uranus, Neptune, and Pluto. I believe this alignment is being reflected now in mundane affairs in the form of sweeping global developments in ideals, technology, healing, and power & resources — just to name a few. If you read historian Heather Cox Richardson’s nightly Letters from an American, she presents the latest on global alliances and shifting balances of power that will make history, so you won’t miss a thing. In her last Letter, for example she begins with a recap of last week’s G20 summit in India.
Uranus refers to innovation, upsets of the status quo, shocks to the system, flashes of enlightenment, and wake-up calls. Uranus is in Taurus, where its mission since 2019 has been to disrupt matters of material comfort and security: food, housing, land; ownership (or lack thereof); physical senses and connections, especially when it comes to what is deemed to be appropriate in matters of touch. Here are predictions from 2019.
Neptune is in Pisces, currently within range of a sextile to Uranus. Neptune refers to oceans, drugs, intuition, dissolving of all things material, spirits, refugees, and oceans (among many other things), and it’s been in Pisces since 2012 — here’s what was written back then. Neptune rules Pisces in modern astrology, so multiply those themes times ten, and you’ll understand much of what’s happening in the mundane world.
A sextile is an aspect of cooperation and communication. We’ll have the first of five exact sextiles between Uranus and Neptune in November 2025 — over two years away, and they will continue into 2027. The last time Uranus and Neptune connected was in 1993, in Capricorn. That was the year The Addams Family was released, with a one-sheet of the family dressed in black, with the tagline “Weird is Relative.” The mission of Uranus-Neptune in Capricorn was to plant seeds for the innovation, disruption, dissolution, and/or idealization of All Things Capricorn (governments, patriarchy, banking, mines, etc.). The last time we had a series of sextiles between Uranus and Neptune was between 1966 and 1968.
This morning, an op-ed by imprisoned Russian dissident Vladimir Kara-Murza appeared in the Washington Post. Kara-Murza argues that “a window of opportunity for the reestablishment of the state on democratic principles will soon appear again in Russia,” suddenly and unpredictably. He reminds us that no one saw the sudden collapse of the Soviet Union coming in the summer of 1991 (except the astrologer Noel Tyl, as Tyl often told his students), but collapse it did by the year’s end. Russia’s new constitution was out in 1993 — during that wiggy Uranus-Neptune conjunction. If a change of form were to happen in Russia, between now and the end of the series of Uranus-Neptune sextiles, it would make sense astro-logically.
Here are other world events from 1993. Some are indeed otherworldly, as a Uranus-Neptune conjunction would suggest.
Meanwhile…
Avid Readers may recall that 1965 and 1966 were especially significant astro-logically because that’s when we had the last series of conjunctions (three) between Uranus and Pluto, which happened between 16-18 degrees of Virgo. Here is an article about those conjunctions, written in 1965 by the legendary humanistic astrologer Dane Rudhyar.
Avid Readers may also recall that between 2012 and 2015, we had a series of seven squares between Uranus and Pluto, all of which were documented in this forecast (here’s a link to the 7th one). The series of squares advanced the themes of the seeds planted during the conjunctions. The next stop in the Uranus-Pluto cycle is a series of trines, the first of which will be exact in 2026.
Astrologer Jamie Partridge succinctly expresses what plenty of astrologers anticipate will be reflected by the Uranus-Pluto trine (with Neptune sandwiched in between in a supportive sextile) in the mid-2020s:
Note that these exact harmonies won’t occur in their current respective signs (Taurus, Pisces, and Capricorn). They will happen in Gemini, Aries, and Aquarius. In other words, these three outer planets will be moving out of Earth and Water, and into Air and Fire.
Planets at the end of signs are often reflected by a sense of urgency about completing whatever they are suited to do in that sign. By early 2026, all of the outer planets will have left Earth (Taurus & Capricorn) and Water (Pisces) behind, and thus we can appreciate why we are seeing such a push for structure and management of Earth and Water concerns — quite literally — now. Imagine what will be in the news on July 1, 2026, when Venus and Jupiter will be in Leo; Saturn and Neptune will be in Aries; Mars and Uranus will be in Gemini; and Pluto will be in Aquarius.
I can imagine a few topics making headlines, and I’m reading it about them now in The Future of the Mind, by the physicist Michio Kaku, which Wikipedia says:
This book was published in 2014, right in the middle of the Uranus-Pluto squares. When Uranus and Pluto begin their scheduled series of trines in 2026, many of the innovations Kaku foresees may become the norm. See how this works? Here’s what else was happening in 2014, per Wikipedia.
Meanwhile…
19-year-old Coco Gauff dispelled any silly stereotypical notion that Pisces are wishy-washy. Gauff won the US Open in a “thrilling” game. We don’t have a birth time, and looking at a horoscope cast for noon on March 13, 2004 in Atlanta, you might not see the potential for such a stunning victory. But if you’re an astrologer who uses solar arcs (another way we have of measuring time), you absolutely, positively would see — immediately — why she’s such a break-out star now, making waves for her fierce independence and her faith. Astrology is amazing.
Simone Biles is a Pisces badass, too, as recent headlines confirm — once again.
In other news, the timed horoscope of VP Kamala Harris continues to function as designed.
Finally, as a resident New Yorker, I can’t forget that today is September 11th a.k.a. 9/11. Here are thoughts on that unimaginable day — first published here in 2015.
Stay tuned to this channel for continuing updates…and thank you for sharing this forecast.

I was looking for a visual to illustrate my musings on the “Big Picture” suggested by developing patterns among the outer planets. This big picture frame is an actual building in Dubai, United Arab Emirates. The sky’s the limit!
Tuesday 9/5/2023: Sneak Peek at a Short Work Week; Jupiter in Focus
/in The ForecastHelloooooo!
Yesterday was a holiday in the United States — and here at the home office, too, as it turned out. Over the past few days, I found myself needing to heed my own advice during intense days of planets changing direction: turn in, and tune out. Taking time for inner reflection is a necessary maintenance task. The alternative is burnout, in which nobody wins.
At 9:20 PM ET on SUNDAY, Venus absolutely, positively, turned direct at 12 degrees of Leo. Remember that Venus refers to who, what and how we need to love. It refers to money, worth, aesthetics, and social expression — especially in relationships. The image I use for Venus retrograde is a tin of sardines, partially open, revealing the stinky fish. What stinky fish in Venus-ruled affairs were revealed to you over the past 40 days? How did this impact your conduct in relationships? If you are familiar with your horoscope, and know what house Venus is in now, this will give you more information on the area of your life that was up for REview. It will take until October 8th for Venus to return to where it was when it turned retrograde in July. Between now and then, we may have opportunities to implement some of our Venus retrograde realizations.
When a planet is changing direction, it slows to a virtual standstill from our perspective on Spaceship Earth. This standstill lasts for several days, and matters related to that planet may be blaring in the headlines, not unlike the sound of a driver leaning on their horn. It was fascinating to see this article in the NYT a few days ago:
Astrology is amazing.
Venus turned direct at 12 degrees 12 minutes of Leo. The Sabian Symbol for this focal point is “an old sea captain rocking,” which suggests a holding pattern, according to astrologer Blain Bovee. Makes sense, with so many other planets currently retrograde.On the other hand, astrologer Lynda Hill offers this caveat:
Highlights for this short work week are:
And it goes like this:
A pause, while we discuss Jupiter retrograde. Jupiter refers to growth and reward. It also refers to excess. Jupiter is halfway through Taurus, which refers to earthly possessions and structures, material comforts and security. Taurus is an Earth sign. When Earth gets too hot, it turns to dust. When it gets too wet, it turns to mud. As Jupiter has slowed to its turning point over the past two weeks, “too hot” and “too wet” have certainly demanded focus in the news. In the Nevada desert, for example, tens of thousands of Venus-in-Leo revelers were literally stuck in the mud at Burning Man.
The Sabian Symbol for this Jupiter retrograde is “an old man vainly trying to reveal the Mysteries.” This old man may not succeed at imparting his wisdom, but he’s going to give it his best effort, regardless. Astrologer James Burgess has a helpful take on this cryptic Symbol. It is fascinating to note that this degree — 16 Taurus –– is the same degree as last November’s volatile Full Moon, which 1) was an eclipse; and 2) happened on Election Day. Jupiter hasn’t yet arrived at the precise degree of the November eclipse, but it is within several minutes of it, and is arguably triggering an expansive release of developments that are related to whatever was brewing back then. It will take until March 25, 2024 for Jupiter to arrive precisely at 16 degrees Taurus, and it wouldn’t surprise me if there was a sudden expansion of matters related to November 8th and this Jupiter retrograde at that time.
Jupiter entered Taurus on May 16th, where it will stay until May 24th. Jupiter will be retrograde until December 30th, backing up to 5 degrees of Taurus. Wherever 5 – 15 degrees of Taurus fall in your horoscope is where you may notice a review or delays in projects intended for maximum growth.
Meanwhile, Beth Owl’s Daughter’s always-in-sync Tarot Card of the Week suggests a need for precision and focus in thought and communication.
And now, the news.
Jupiter’s virtual standstill and retrogradation suggests a blaring focus in matters of publishing, sports, education, and expansion, for better or worse:
During last week’s long stretch of no exact aspects among the planets (except to the Moon), I anticipated a story akin to the collapse of an ice shelf into the ocean:
Despite my best intentions, I was not able to publish a recap of the headlines from the week before last, which featured a Mars-Neptune opposition (the surreal; scandal), Mars trine Pluto, Venus square Jupiter (excess) and a Sun-Saturn opposition (cuts and losses). Oh, and Mars entered Libra on August 27th, meaning it was at the Aries Point, putting matters of men, action, and aggression in the spotlight. Here are the highlights, from my notes:
That was also the date of the Republican presidential candidates’ debate. Before the debate, I wrote:
…and for the record, that was when the candidates were arguing about abortion, with Ron DeSantis winning the prize for most “egregiously provocative spin.” Also for the record, NY1 provided a fact-check on that and other debate topics. It was declared that Nikki Haley — whose Sun is currently under the empowering potential of transiting Pluto — made a strong, positive impression. Vivek Ramaswamy generated excitement, which would be apt for transiting Uranus impacting his horoscope. His expansive stage is reflected by a natal Sun-Jupiter opposition, which just happens to be squared by Jupiter right now, and suggests he’s not going away until the end of March at the earliest. Chris Christie was the only man on stage who didn’t mirror the solid red tie worn by the former guy in his mug shot, and he and Asa Hutchinson were the only two who said they would not support the 91-felony-charges-and-counting front-runner should he win the party nomination, which seems surreal. Haley wore a suffragette-white suit tinted blue, bless her heart.
