In this conversation, astrologer Pam Gregory joins me to explore why she believes 2026 and 2027 are an unprecedented window of accelerated change for humanity. Pam shares the rare planetary patterns she's tracking, why so many wisdom traditions point to this same window, and what she believes happens as old structures fall away. We also get into: ✨ Why your North Node might be the most important part of your chart ✨ Why Pam reads the Moon and Ascendant differently than most astrologers ✨ What your chart reveals about your soul's calling ✨ Why so many people feel disoriented, sensitive, or like time is speeding up ✨ Why stillness may be one of our greatest sources of power right now ✨ Galactic consciousness and what Pam sees coming through 2027   Pam reminded me that astrology doesn't determine who we become. It gives us the pattern. We choose how we play the music.

An interview with musician Roland Orzabal from the band Tears for Fears, discussing his new autobiography, Welcome to Your Life, where he tells his life story through the lens of astrology. In the late 1980s, Roland experienced a profound shift in his worldview, moving from the psychological belief that we are all born as "blank slates" to discovering the stunning accuracy of the natal chart. We discuss his deep dive into the subject and how understanding his Leo Sun and Capricorn stellium helped him navigate the intense pressures of global fame, the complex creative dynamics within Tears for Fears, and his challenging family history. What makes Welcome to Your Life so unique is that it serves as both a deeply personal, unfiltered memoir and an accessible introduction to astrology. During the episode, we pull up Roland's birth chart to track the major transits of his life, from the Jupiter-Saturn conjunctions that aligned with some of his biggest career milestones, to the heavy Pluto and Neptune transits that correlated with periods of profound personal loss, addiction, and eventual healing. Ultimately, this is a conversation about fate, free will, and how astrology provides a hidden language to make sense of our most difficult and triumphant moments. It was an honor to speak with a legendary musician who is also a dedicated, lifelong student of the astrological tradition. This is episode 545 of The Astrology Podcast.

In this 4-year anniversary episode 173, astrologers Kristina Martin and Tara Redfield analyze the unshakeable bond between Dawson's Creek stars Michelle Williams and Busy Philipps. Is it sisterhood, soulmates, or something written in the stars? We decode Michelle's chart—an Aquarius Rising with a Virgo Stellium in her 8th house (Sun, Moon, Mercury)—which explains her rebellious independence, meticulous acting chops, and the deep loss she's transformed throughout her life. Then, we explore Busy's Leo Rising with Cancer Sun/Moon, revealing the hidden emotional depths behind her giant personality. What makes them work? Michelle's Venus conjunct Busy's Ascendant (love at first sight!) and a Sun sextile Moon (true safety). But we also expose the friction: a Sun square Saturn that breeds intellectual judgment, and a tense Sun/Venus/Neptune T-square that hints at real sacrifice. Tune in for their ultimate Venus Score!

In contrast, President Trump lead a jubilant Independence Day festival in D.C., honoring the truth that our strength derives from founding principles and the representative framework they preserve. In a battle for the soul of America, Trumpism now faces off against an ascendant socialist faction of the Left.

In this episode we break down the results from last week's Democratic primaries in New York City, which saw candidates aligned with the Democratic Socialists of America prevail in key congressional races (as well as downballot in local and state races). We break down what happened, review the deranged responses from both the right and centrist Democrats, the place of Israel/Palestine in these contests (and the ludicrous if expected charges of anti-semitism that followed), and consider what it might mean for the left in the age of Trump—however much longer that lasts—and more.

Trump lost more than the war with Iran. U.S. media tends to look at things through a bilateral or ethnocentric lens of winners and losers. The bigger story is how Trump singlehandedly altered the calculus for multiple nation states, and fundamentally shifted historic alliances. Israel stands to lose the most and is increasingly isolated now that Iran and its proxies are triumphant. But this also has enormous implications for the Gulf States who have to renegotiate their relationship with Tehran. Whether there are any actual payouts in this agreement is icing on Iran’s liquidity cake as entry to market oil prices and flows alone will amount to a huge windfall. In three short months Trump weakened the position of U.S. allies and strengthened Iran and its allies. Resources CNBC: Pres.

The next round of advancing worker power during the New Deal saw organized labor's allies in Congress successfully secure their right to organize.

After the latest round of state elections, India's political landscape looks more lopsided than at any time in the post-2014 era. The BJP claimed big wins in West Bengal and Assam—continuing its march across eastern India and solidifying its status as a hegemonic party. But politics at home is only part of the story.  Overseas, India is facing a turbulent moment—from the Iran war and Pakistan's diplomatic resurgence to Trump 2.0's approach to China and the uncertain future of the Quad.  To talk about the BJP's dominance, the opposition's crisis, and India's positioning in a rapidly shifting world, Milan is joined this week by Grand Tamasha regulars, Sadanand Dhume and Tanvi Madan.  Sadanand is a senior fellow for India, Pakistan, and South Asia at the Council on Foreign Relations. He is also a regular columnist for the Wall Street Journal.  Tanvi Madan is a senior fellow in the Center for Asia Policy Studies in the Foreign Policy program at the Brookings Institution. The trio discuss whether India is becoming a “one-party state,” the current state of the opposition, and the headwinds facing the Indian economy. Plus, the three discuss Pakistan's diplomatic moment, Trump's recent China trip, and Marco Rubio's visit to India.

Because Cory has the courage to say that, quote, "bugs are bad. I'm glad they got fixed," that is the theme of this week's Blizzard Watch Podcast. Well, not all of them are really bugs -- is it a bug that five Guardian Druids did an M +20? Well, that bug was fixed. And the bug with Ascendant Voidcores was fixed, and players can use them to upgrade their gear. We had a lengthy discussion on the future of Diablo 4, which is necessarily going to touch on some bugs, even if we try our best to avoid spoilers.Also, there was a list of bug fixes and other changes for Heroes of the Storm this week, so it's a good thing Cory's here.But elevators?

In this episode, Paula introduces one of the most overlooked—and powerful—points in astrology: the Vertex. Often called the “point of fate,” the Vertex reveals what you're naturally aligned to attract in this lifetime, not what you have to chase. She breaks down where to find it in your chart, why the sign matters more than the house, and how it differs from the more conscious, action-driven Ascendant. Through real-life examples and personal stories, Paula explains how the Vertex shows up as unexpected opportunities, chance encounters, and life-altering moments that feel too perfectly timed to be random. From attracting relationships and resources to aligning with your life's path, this episode will help you recognize the patterns that have already been unfolding for you—and show you how awareness gives you leverage, not control. If you've ever felt like certain moments in your life were “meant to happen,” this episode will help you understand why.

In this episode I discuss the importance of exact transits to the birth chart within one degree of orb, and I interview patrons who share personal stories about events that happened in their lives under these close alignments. While sign-based transits set the broader stage and signify the overarching themes of an extended period, the moment a transiting planet aligns exactly to the degree and minute of a natal placement is often when the most critical, tangible events occur. We explore how these precise hits function like a spike in intensity, bringing the reality of the transit to the immediate forefront of our lives. Throughout the episode, listeners share a wide spectrum of lived experiences, demonstrating how both major life milestones and seemingly minor day-to-day occurrences can be mapped to exact planetary alignments. We delve into firsthand accounts covering everything from career promotions and sudden job losses to the severing of long-term relationships, medical emergencies, and the heavy culmination of the Saturn return. These examples also beautifully illustrate how overlapping astrological timing techniques, like annual profections and retrogrades, can dramatically amplify the significance of a single degree-based transit. Ultimately, this collection of stories serves as a powerful reminder of astrology's precision and its ability to reflect both our internal choices and our external circumstances. By tuning in to the exact transits occurring in your own chart, you can better anticipate key turning points and understand the specific timeline surrounding unfolding events.

Episode 158: Rose Byrne & Bobby Cannavale Synastry – Saturn Trines vs. Pluto Oppositions In this episode, astrologers Kristina Martin and Tara Redfield dive deep into the synastry chart of Oscar-nominated actress Rose Byrne and Tony Award-winning actor Bobby Cannavale. Are they a cosmic match made in heaven, or is the tension in their charts too much to handle? We analyze their individual birth charts and the complex planetary aspects that define this Hollywood power couple. We start with Rose Byrne's birth chart: We explore her rare Sun in Leo and Moon in Cancer dignity combo—a fascinating blend of performer identity and deep emotional sensitivity. We also break down her Saturn conjunct North Node in Virgo, revealing a life destiny rooted in structure and purification of her craft. Plus, we look at her comedic Mars in Gemini versus the challenging Venus square Pluto aspect, which highlights a difficult search for self-value. Then, we analyze Bobby Cannavale's chart: With a Virgo rising and a Gemini Mars square Venus, Bobby embodies the trickster archetype who can push boundaries. We discuss his Pluto in Virgo, indicating an intense perfectionism, as well as his Sun conjunct Saturn (a signature of hard work) and a hot-headed Moon in Aries that points to combative reflexes. Finally, we reveal the synastry between them: An exact nodal reversal—they are here to teach each other about practical versus emotional service. Mutual Venus/Neptune trines, indicating intrinsic merging, gentleness, and depth. Mutual Saturn trines, showing mutual respect and a healthy working dynamic. However, we also uncover the difficult aspects: a condescending Saturn on the Ascendant and an emotionally violating Pluto opposition to the Moon. Without the classic romantic aspects like Venus/Mars or Sun/Moon, is the Saturn trine the only glue holding them together? Tune in to find out the Venus score for this working acting couple!

Unlock the full potential of astrology in New Moon Alignment at https://www.quietmindastrology.com/newmoonThe word "crisis" originally stems from a Greek root meaning "decision," "judgment," or "turning point". In this episode, I explore why identity crises are one of the most common reasons people seek out astrology and how these moments serve as essential crossroads in our lives. We dive into the "Big Three" of your birth chart—the Ascendant, Moon, and Sun—and how they define your internal sense of self, your emotional adaptability, and your consistent spirit. We also discuss the major astrological checkpoints that trigger these shifts, including the current Ketu in Leo transits of 2025–2026, dasha changes, and eclipse cycles. By moving from the "sameness" of identity (Prakriti) toward the formless awareness of spirit (Purusha), we can transform a crisis into a powerful opportunity for conscious evolution.QUOTES“The three most common reasons that somebody comes to astrology are curiosity, clarity, or a crisis.” “When we have an identity crisis, we need to make a choice. Do we want to stay the same or do we want to change things?” “The eclipses are like moving into a new act of life. Our life is not three acts, but dozens and dozens of acts.” “A lot of spiritual work is connecting to the spirit over the form—the Purusha rather than the Prakriti.” TIMESTAMPS00:00 The Etymology of Crisis: Decision and Judgment 01:02 My Personal Identity Crisis Finding Vedic Astrology 01:27 Defining Identity: The Latin Root of "Sameness" 02:07 The Big Three: Ascendant, Moon, and Sun 03:07 The Sun vs. The Moon: Consistency vs. Change 04:51 2025–2026 Eclipses: Ketu in Leo and Identity Shifting 06:25 Moving Toward Community Values with Rahu in Aquarius 07:20 Life in Acts: How Eclipses Mark New Chapters 08:34 Major Life Turning Points: Dashas and Dasha Sandhi 11:06 Checkpoints for Challenging Identity: Big Four Transits 12:36 The Muntha Point: Your Personal Theme for the Year 14:32 Purusha and Prakriti: Spirit vs. Form 16:45 Shedding Skin: When a Cycle Has Closed 17:49 Balancing Doshas: Variety vs. Controlling Sameness 19:23 Intentional Identity: Breaking Habits and New Roles 23:03 The Healthy Evolution of Identity as We Age KEYWORDSVedic astrology, identity crisis, Big Three, Ketu in Leo, Rahu in Aquarius, Dasha Sandhi, Purusha, Prakriti, Jyotish, eclipse season 2026, self-awareness, spiritual growth.FREE RESOURCES⭐️ Free Birth Chart: http://www.quietmindastrology.com/freebirthchart⭐️ Free Horoscopes: https://www.quietmindastrology.com/freehoroscopes⭐️ Podcast (Spotify, Apple, etc): https://creators.spotify.com/pod/profile/astrology⭐️ Instagram: http://www.instagram.com/quietmindastrology⭐️ YouTube: http://www.quietmindastrology.com/youtubeWORK WITH ME⭐️ Book a Reading: http://www.quietmindastrology.com/reading⭐️ Decode Your Chart: https://www.quietmindastrology.com/101⭐️ Mentorship: http://www.quietmindastrology.com/mentorshipQUIETMIND YOGA⭐️ Yoga Teacher Training Podcast: https://www.anchor.fm/yogateachertrainingNEXT STEP⭐️ Unlock the full potential of astrology in New Moon Alignment at ⁠https://www.quietmindastrology.com/newmoon⁠

 JOIN SHERI HORN HASAN @ https://www.karmicevolution.com/astrologically-speaking as she delves into how we got into this mess in Iran--astrologically speaking--via the ongoing Mars/Uranus cycle! And what's in store as we head toward the third quarter monthly lunar square March 11!This week's podcast outlines all that's taken place--& its astrological correspondences—as we approach Venus's entrance into Mars-ruled Aries (the warrior) March 6, & the Sun/Mercury Rx & Venus/Neptune conjunctions in Pisces March 7, & look for chaos to morph into greater clarity about the U.S./Israeli attacks on Iran.First, we've gotten already big clues already about how the Sun/Mercury Rx conjunction will manifest by March 7. And that's first via the announcement on March 5 of the firing of Department of Homeland Security (DHS) Secretary Kristi Noem by President Trump. Secondly, it includes the announcement on March 4 by the Republican-led House Oversight Committee that they've subpoenaed Attorney General Pam Bondi, which compels her to testify regarding the Department of Justice's handling of records in the Jeffrey Epstein investigation. The voted 24-19 included bipartisan support, with five Republicans joining Democrats.Hey, it's Mercury retrograde—time to revisit & review old issues, doncha know? And the same goes for the repeat during Mercury's current retrograde cycle of the attack by the U.S. & Israel on Iran which occurred first on July 15, 2025, when Mars @28'54 Leo formed its first waxing square to tUR at 28'54” Taurus. And how, when Jupiter stations direct in Cancer March 10, we'll be sorting out whether our personal set of values, morals, & ethics match those of society at large. Or, whether during its retrograde period, we've gotten in greater touch with whether we've simply blithely accepted those of our society & culture at large without question.Further, as we approach next week's third quarter waning monthly lunar “crisis in consciousness” square of the Sagittarius Moon to the Pisces Sun March 11 we'll again find ourselves questioning whether our personal values match the nebulously chimerical ones of those of people in power. WAR--WHAT'S IT GOOD FOR? ABSOLUTELY NOTHING!First, this podcast explores how the warmongering taking place as the U.S. self-dubbed “peace president” illustrates how Mercury retrograde works by repeating now—since Mercury stationed retrograde in Pisces on February 25/26—with this repeat an attack on Iran. And how, while the Sun's been in Pisces since February 18, we've merged with Israel, the same partner as last July, to do so. And also, when the Sun, Mercury, Venus, & Mars were all in Neptune-ruled Pisces—both archetypally related to confusion, illusion, & delusion--the question arose: Are we're doing the same thing over & over again but expecting different results?This podcast reviews the synodic cycle of Mars to Uranus since the two first conjoined at 26'32” Taurus on July 15, 2024, two days after the attempted assassination of President Trump during his campaign rally in Butler, Pennsylvania. We might note now that this degree conjoined fixed star Algol an “off with his head” energy, as the gunman reportedly grazed Trump's ear. We take a deep dive into where this Mars/Uranus cycle's waxing & waning aspects occurred in Trump's chart & whether (or not)—especially given the symbology of his grazed ear—he's at all listening to its messages. You really can't make this stuff up, right?

As more light gets shed on the contents of Jeffrey Epstein's long sought after documents during this month's Capricorn New Moon lunar cycle which began on January 18 & hit its apex at the Leo Full Moon February 1, we see a collective aha! moment awakening process dawning.But, not everyone wants to awaken from their ideological notion that a “perfect world” means one where rich elites rule through xenophobia, racism, misogyny, gender-discrimination, etc., in order to creat an "us versus them" dynamic to stay in power.This is exemplified by Saturn's move into Mars-ruled Aries today, February 13, which combines a planet that is change resistant with a sign that is action oriented. When these two meet, there are positive strides to be made if one can commit to working hard toward the achievement of a planned goal. Slow & steady wins the race, in other words, when these two combine.Pitfalls abound, however, in that Saturn's shadow side is its rigidity & tendency to linger in the past, while Mars-ruled Aries is its impulsive & impetuous nature that may result in hasty decisions that can hurt not only oneself but others.As we approach Saturn's re-entrance into Aries from now until April 13, 2028, we might ponder how this will play both throughout the collective & in our personal lives. Right now, the example in front of us, in the U.S., at least, is in the fact that rigidity on two sides of the political spectrum will cause a partial government shutdown at midnight tonight.As both Democratic & Republican senators are deeply entrenched in their respective political positions—the former on achieving future progress, the latter on staying intractably stuck in past decisions—the result is frustration.That this frustration will hit those most impacted by a lack of funding for the Department of Homeland Security, which oversees not only the Immigration & Customs Enforcement agency (ICE) & the Customs & Border Patrol (CBP) agency, but also the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA), the Transportation Security Agency (TSA), & the U.S. Coast Guard.Together, this will impact 260,000 federal employees, although not those in ICE or CBP, since they've been fully funded since Trump signed into law his big ugly bill last July which gave billions to the DHS for these agencies for years to come.The others, however, may see staff shortages and/or government employees working without pay until this stalemate is resolved. And that stalemate revolves around NOT sanctioning even MORE money for ICE & imposing a list of restrictions on how they are operating currently.AQUARIUS NEW MOON SOLAR ECLIPSE THEMES INCLUDE COMMUNICATION, PAPERWORK, & YOUNG PEOPLE...What's clear as this Capricorn New Moon lunar cycle comes to an end & the Aquarius New Moon solar eclipse heralds in a new one is that the times, they are a'changin'…This podcast takes a deep dive into the themes of not only this current set of upcoming eclipses—meaning both the Aquarius New Moon solar eclipse at 29'48” Aquarius on February 17 & the 12'40” Virgo Full Moon lunar eclipse March 3--but how these echo those from last September's set of eclipses.So, as resistance grow by those in power to investigating & acknowledging that the violation of societally agreed upon morals, ethics, & justice deserves to be revealed if not punished—you know, stuff like pedophilia, denying people due process, punishing immigrants' children with detention, etc.—so does the collectives' awareness that something is wrong.This solar eclipse's squares by the Aquarius Moon & Sun to Uranus in Taurus—as both Mercury & Venus in Aquarius's squares to Uranus have already foreshadowed—reveal that not everyone is in agreement that those in power deserve to remain protected by being allowed to remain hidden in the shadows.In addition, collective empathy for those who've been wronged has begun to grow since Mercury & Venus entered Pisces on February 6 & 9, respectively. And that includes empathy for the sexually abused young girls & women, to the innocent immigrants & U.S. citizens vilified (most often without proof), to the innocent children detained & incarcerated with a parent or who've been separated from parents & other loved ones.Such empathy will likely grow, especially since the Sun will enter Pisces February 18, following the February 17 solar eclipse. So too will the calls for change increase as the Aquarius Sun perfects its square to Uranus in Taurus between now & February 15/16, depending on your time zone.AMERICA'S (READ: THE PEOPLES') ATTORNEY GENERAL OR TRUMP'S PERSONAL ATTORNEY?This podcast explores also some revelations that come clear through an analyzation of U.S. Attorney General Pan Bondi's natal chart, even though we have no definite time of birth. This is especially relevant given her astoundingly combative & aggravatingly frustrating performance in front of the Senate Judiciary Committee February 11 as we approached Saturn's move into Aries on February 13.Born November 17, 1965, in Tampa, Florida, aspects within Bondi's chart reveal the origin of her discompassionate emotional relationship with women—as so clearly evidenced during her refusal to even acknowledge the existence, and the pain, of several Epstein sexual abuse victims during her recent Senate Judiciary hearing.A close look reveals how her lack of healthy nurturing also seems to block her ability to empathize with with women in general & sexual abuse victims specifically. That she also lacks air—with only Jupiter in Aquarius—shows her lack of objectivity on one hand but also her niche brilliance likely responsible for how far she's gotten in the legal hierarchy thus far.However, she also lacks fire, as Mercury in Sagittarius is her only planet in that element, & this can lead—as per Jungian psychological astrologer Richard Ideman—to a great deal of rage. These elemental lacks tend to appear during times of stress or crisis. After witnessing her arrogant & angry performance the other day: Ya think???Tune in to hear more about how Bondi's observable behavior—including her rage—is written in the aspects in her chart. And how, even though we don't know her Ascendant or house placements, we can still glean an awful lot about how & why she acts the way she does.Given that an attorney general works to apply the law equally to ALL Americans, her tendency toward obsessiveness (Mecury square Pluto) & evasive secretiveness (Sun/Neptune conjunction in Pluto-ruled Scorpio) tell us how she's often fallen short of that goal.There's more so be sure to give Karmic Evolution's Astrologically Speaking podcast a listen, starting today, February 13, @https://www.karmicevolution.com/astrologically-speakingLooking forward to seeing you later! Namaste…

British astrologer Steve Judd believes 2026 is a once-in-a-species turning point, and the next four years will determine whether humanity breaks through or breaks down. In this episode of Soul Elevation, Kara Goodwin speaks with Steve Judd about the rare planetary patterns shaping consciousness, why astrology has been suppressed, and how understanding your Sun Moon Rising and Midheaven can radically change how you see yourself and the world. Steve has been a professional astrologer for over 45 years, with tens of thousands of readings behind him and a Master of Arts in Cultural Astronomy and Astrology. And in this conversation, he shares why he's been tracking 2026 for decades. We explore why 2026 is not just "a big year", but a pivotal threshold for humanity, a turning point that will shape the next four years and beyond. Steve explains the deeper purpose of astrology as pattern recognition and self knowledge, and why this kind of knowledge has been suppressed throughout history.  If you've ever felt curious about astrology but unsure where to begin, this episode will help you understand the foundation in a way that feels practical, empowering, and surprisingly accessible. You'll learn what your Sun sign, Moon sign, Rising sign (Ascendant), and Midheaven actually reveal about you, including how you experience life internally, how you show up in the world, and how you consciously project yourself in your life path and purpose. Steve also shares why astrology can become a shared language across cultures, and how understanding archetypes can reduce judgment, increase empathy, and help us relate to each other in a more conscious way. We also go into Steve's big picture view of the next several years, why the planetary positions "impel, not compel" principle, why the patterns of 2026 continue unfolding through 2027, 2028, and into 2029, and what it means to live at a time he believes is rare on a multi thousand year scale. And the conversation lands in a place that is both simple and profound: the role of joy, humor, and unconditional love as stabilizers in intense times. Steve leaves us with a line worth remembering: Negativity can't exist where there's humor.

In Episode 149, astrologers Kristina Martin and Tara Redfield kick off 2026 by analyzing the compelling synastry of New York's youngest mayor, Zohran Mamdani, and his artist wife, Rama Duwaji.   The reading begins with Zohran Mamdani's birth chart, revealing an expressive Leo Rising that showcases his theatrical public persona. However, this placement is tempered by a sobering Saturn opposition, suggesting his natural confidence is earned through struggle and extra hard work. His chart further reveals a potent Mars in Scorpio, creating dynamic tension as it squares both his Ascendant and Saturn—a configuration that explains his social media savvy and his powerful appeal to fringe groups.   Next, the analysis turns to Rama Duwaji's chart, drawing fascinating astrological parallels to Princess Diana, including a sensitive Cancer Sun and a revolutionary Jupiter in Aquarius. Her chart also reveals a Mars square, indicating she is a fighter who uses her Libra Mars to wield art as her weapon of choice, complemented by a glamorous Venus in Leo that bestows a captivating, un-ignorable beauty.   When their charts are combined, powerful compatibility is revealed: mutually positive Sun and Jupiter connections amplify and uplift their personal growth. A profound Sun-Chiron conjunction indicates major healing potential within the relationship, while a coveted Mars-Venus square points to a charged, magnetic attraction. However, the couple must navigate challenging square Moons, which can trigger insensitivity, stubbornness, and difficult domestic cohesion, alongside a transformative Pluto square Moon and a chaotic Uranus opposing the Sun. The pivotal question becomes whether this undermining energy can be successfully discharged through other harmonious aspects in their charts. Tune in to hear the detailed Venus compatibility score we award this newly exalted and politically influential power couple.   Book a Reading with us!

Elohim Monard joins The Jacob Shapiro Podcast to discuss Latin America. A massive geopolitical integration in LatAm is quietly underway, fueled by a "Trumpian" rightward shift sweeping from the Southern Cone to the Rio Grande. As traditional alliances fracture, a new "practical ideology" is emerging to unite the hemisphere through hard-fist security tactics and aggressive economic pragmatism. But beneath this surface-level alignment lies a volatile paradox: a burgeoning "low-intensity war" targeting non-state actors as a pretext for permanent emergency. From the weaponization of fentanyl to state-sanctioned privateers, the line between regional stability and calculated chaos is vanishing. Latin America has suddenly returned to the center of the global board (contrary to major predictions) and the struggle for its future is no longer a civil war... but a high-stakes play for total hemispheric control.--Timestamps:(00:00) - Introduction(00:52) - Current Geopolitical Climate in Latin America(02:18) - Upcoming Elections and Political Shifts(03:36) - The Rise of Right-Wing Politics(07:20) - Brazil's Political Landscape and Lula's Role(11:37) - Economic Dependencies and China's Influence(23:01) - Strategic Infrastructure and Future Developments(27:59) - US Investment in South America(28:36) - Venezuela and Letters of Marque(30:43) - US-Venezuela Tensions Escalate(32:28) - Trump's Foreign Policy Strategy(37:16) - Potential War Against Non-State Actors(46:22) - Future of US-Venezuela Relations(50:46) - Conclusion--Referenced in the Show:Conversando de Pol ítica: https://www.conversandodepolitica.com/--Jacob Shapiro Site: jacobshapiro.comJacob Shapiro LinkedIn: linkedin.com/in/jacob-l-s-a9337416Jacob Twitter: x.com/JacobShapJacob Shapiro Substack: jashap.substack.com/subscribe --The Jacob Shapiro Show is produced and edited by Audiographies LLC.

! JOIN SHERI HORN HASAN FOR all the Astro News You Can Use @ https://www.karmicevolution.com/astrologically-speaking podcast!ANY WAY THE WIND BLOWS, EVERYTHING YOU DON'T KNOW TURNS INTO A REVELATIONThe Scorpio New Moon, which occurred at 28-degrees 12-minutes Scorpio at 10:47 p.m. PT November 19 & 1:47 a.m. ET November 20, opposed Uranus retrograde at 29-degrees 29-minutes of Taurus, known as the “Pleiades point” in Greek mythology. Found in the Taurus constellation, the seven weeping sisters represent “blindness”--sometimes literally, more often metaphorically.So, Mercury retrograde's reentrance into the 29th degree of Scorpio on November 18/early November 19--when Mercury then exact opposed Uranus Rx @ 29 Taurus seem now in hindsight to have represented a “once I was blind but now I can see” moment. .Astrologically speaking this Mercury/Uranus opposition aspect alone told us that something unusual, something sudden & potentially shocking was likely to happen as we approached this Scorpio New Moon. This was then confirmed as we waxed toward today's exact Sun/Uranus opposition on November 21.And, sure enough, it was as these aspects waxed in strength & as we approached the Scorpio New Moon that President Trump—who'd formerly insisted these Epstein documents were a “Democratic hoax”—announced his unexpected turnaround. Suddenly, after realizing that resistance was futile, he was all for passage of “The Epstein Files Transparency Act” & declared that he would sign the bill when it reached his desk.And so he did on November 19, just before the Scorpio New Moon arrived. Now this month's lunation directs us to plant seeds that allow us to gain a greater sense of self-empowerment—both individually & collectively—but that such empowerment will come with some surprising revelations as we face our hidden shadows. Shadows to which we've previously been blind, given this lunation's opposition to Uranus retrograde at the 29 Taurus Pleiades degree--as they emerge suddenly, & perhaps shockingly, into the light of day.For Donald Trump, who experienced this lunation in his Pluto/Scorpio-ruled 4th House of early psychological roots opposing transiting Uranus in his 10th House of reputation in the wider world & square to his Leo Ascendant (appearance to others) & fixed star Regulus, it the message now seems clear.His popularity waning, his strong-arm tactics shot down in courts, his inability to understand the definition of “affordability” in the economic realm, his thirst for revenge & warlike tactics both domestically & internationally, the question becomes whether this is the beginning of the end for him. He is, after all, now considered political a “lame duck”—one who's constitutionally prevented from running for president again, despite acting like the U.S. Constitution doesn't exist.YOU WATCH & YOU WAIT, & PRAY FOR THE DAY…With transiting Uranus retrograde now square Donald Trump's Leo Ascendant & fixed star Regulus—which at his birth conjoined his Ascendant in Leo—Trump is now facing what Regulus traditionally represents--which is king maker & (potentially) king breaker. Fixed star Regulus, considered one of the four royal stars by the ancient Persians, has a connotation with "Watcher of the North," & as such was seen as a guardian star, which brought honor and success. However, Regulus carried the warning that succumbing to vengeful impulses would diminish its blessings. In short, seeking & gaining power was in its purview, but that power would be lost if such a person resorted to revenge of his or her perceived enemies.Given that transiting Uranus first squared Trump's Leo Ascendant/Regulus on June 17, 2025, he's already taken the first hit. However, his second exact square occurred on November 7, the day he pardoned 70+ people who'd been instrumental in his “stop the steal” elector scheme leading to the U.S. Capitol insurrection on January 6, 2021. Next he's gone after his political opponents for doing their jobs, such as former FBI Director James Comey, NYS Attorney General Letitia James, & more, as he seeks revenge against those attempting to hold him legally accountable for his own wrongdoings.What's important to realize now is that Uranus, which remains retrograde in Taurus until February 3, 2026, will once again comes into orb of squaring his Leo Ascendant/Regulus between April 6-25, 2026. It's on April 26 of next year that Uranus direct reenters Gemini for the duration of its transit there.The point is that Trump is not done yet with his potential fall from grace, based on ancient archetypal astrological calculations which foretell a diminished future for him, to put it diplomatically. What that will look like exactly is hard to say, as he's always been extremely lucky despite his mafioso tendencies.Astrologer Rob Hand generally describes the Uranus square to one's Ascendant in his book “Planets In Transit” as one that “…is likely to have a very disruptive effect on your relationships. Influences may enter your life, either through your home or your profession, that will challenge the foundations upon which your life is built. This challenge will be reflected in surprising encounters with others that upset your way of living or in sudden separations from person who you thought would remain in your life for some time.” I'll leave it to you, gentle reader, to suss out the direction from which the who, what, where, how, & when of these challenges for Trump. All I ask is that you keep this particular transit in mind as we approach the early spring next year… YOU CAN'T ALWAYS GET WHAT YOU WANT, BUT IF YOU TRY SOMETIMES, YOU GET WHAT YOU NEEDNow, as we head into this month's Scorpio themed lunar cycle, we might be mindful that Mercury's still retrograde in Scorpio until it stations direct on November 29, Neptune's retrograde in Pisces until December 10, Uranus remains retrograde until February 3, 2026, & Jupiter's still retrograde in Cancer until March 10, 2026.While these retrogrades always ask us to review, Mercury Rx in Scorpio has clearly brought a lot of vitriolic language to the forefront. The point is that now we can recognize such language for what it is—the deeply violent not-so-shadow side of Donald Trump when he calls for the death of his political opponents by saying they should be hanged for telling the military not to follow illegal orders.Meanwhile, however, just before Mercury stations direct again on November 29, Saturn will station direct in Pisces November 27. We continue now to review our plans for the future (Mercury Rx), & strengthen our connection to what's real versus fantastical thinking (Neptune Rx.) In addition, we experience the shattering of “smug ideals which will not withstand true, objective clarity,” as Jungian astrologer Erin Sullivan puts it in her book “Retrograde Planets” (Uranus Rx.) And we continue to review what is our TRUE inner sense of morality, ethics, & integrity--versus that which society tells us is moral & just—& bring such inner knowing into greater consciousness (Jupiter Rx.)When Saturn stations direct at 29'09” Pisces, it will remain “within the same degree for almost six weeks on either side of the station,” according to Sullivan. “Upon its direction, one might feel as if moving in slow motion.” Despite this, something new will have “been born, but it will need a few months to become consciously manifest,” she notes.When Saturn direct reaches the degree at which it originally stationed, or 1'56” Aries, by March 2, 2026, we'll be able to see the completion of previous plans which seemed stalled during the retrograde, according to Sullivan. “Alternatively, a tentative plan or fantasy may come to reality in the last stages of the cycle,” Sullivan points out, adding “negatively, it will finish off any antiquated or non-productive relationship, projects, or activities,” as “outmoded & evening damaging values or relationships long past their productive stage do end,” she concludes.Given that the Sun entered Jupiter-ruled Sagittarius November 21, Jupiter's retrograde in Cancer has the Sadge archetype as its dispositor until the Sun moves on & into Capricorn December 21. However, since Jupiter's retrograde in Moon-ruled Cancer lasts until March 10, 2026, it's then we'll begin to realize how plans made prior to its station retrograde on November 11 have contracted rather than expanded. The point of Jupiter's retrograde period—if we are striving for greater consciousness in our lives—is that it's the period which leads us to better understand that we don't always get what we want, but that we will more often get what we need. It's knowledge--& acceptance—of the difference between these two that gives us the advantage as we navigate our lives.In terms of the U.S. Government's current administration, this bodes well, don't you think? The current administration's plans to shrink the government, eliminate diversity, equity, & inclusive policies, to hunt down & jail or deport immigrants here legally, to deny educational institutions federal funding, continue to promote misogyny, & to have the president continually profit financially from his foreign cryptocurrency deals--& so much more—is a WANT.But going after Donald Trump's political adversaries, & ignoring his own policy's negative economic effects with zero regard for his nation's citizens well-being might not be exactly what his soul actually needs, lol. Especially since he was born with a wounded Jupiter by virtue of its tight conjunction to Juno, the sign of partnership, & Chiron, the wounded healer in his 2nd House of values. If we take note of all these astrological happenings as they pertain to life here in the

The Decline of Democracy: Autocracy and Oligarchy on the Rise. Gaius and Germanicus discuss Michael McFaul's hypothesis that democracy is in recession and autocracy is ascendant. Germanicus concurs, blaming "Blue" (Democrats) for pursuing steps that strip the nation of its Republican character, including efforts to control media and censor, which he terms "creeping authoritarianism." He cites examples like a two-tier justice system and the pursuit of "thought crimes" (e.g., silent praying outside an abortion clinic) in the US and UK. Germanicus believes the US is heading toward a "brutal oligarchy" controlled by a ruling class, rather than a classic autocracy. Gaius asks if autocratic models, such as Chinese capitalism, are appealing to allies. Germanicus confirms that certain nations (like the expanding BRICS) view China and Russia as providing a better model for societal progress, especially given the US's poor global reputation since 2001. Furthermore, neoliberalism benefits only the very wealthy, creating devastating wealth inequality akin to the ancien régime before the French Revolution. Projecting 100 years ahead, Germanicus believes the US will likely be an "oligarchic autocracy" and an empire competing as a trans-Pacific/transatlantic block against a Eurasian block. They agree that modern technology, capable of tracking thoughts and speech, is an "enormously powerful instrument" supporting this autocratic trend. Germanicus notes that moralizing about dictators and "saving democracy" will persist, but merely as a means to keep the population passive and quiet, labeling modern censorship as highly Orwellian. They conclude they are living through a transformation from kingship to democracy, now moving toward autocracy. 80 BCE. SULLA 

A deep dive into the meaning and significations of the fifth house in astrology, with astrologers Chris Brennan and Leisa Schaim, in episode 506 of The Astrology Podcast. This is the fifth installment in our ongoing series on the significations of the 12 houses, where we explore the meanings of each house in detail, going back to the earliest sources and conceptualizations in the astrological tradition. Our discussion on the fifth house will be broken into three parts, and in this initial episode, we focus on providing a comprehensive overview of its core significations and meanings. We begin by establishing the conceptual foundations for the meaning of the fifth house, which was known in ancient astrology as the Place of Good Fortune. Some of the principles we use to derive its meaning are the fact that it is a succedent house that follows the fourth, its positive trine aspect to the Ascendant, and the fact that Venus has her joy there. These concepts establish the fifth house as a place of bodily pleasures, the continuation of the family lineage, and generally positive and fortunate circumstances. The core significations of the fifth house that we explore in detail include: children, good fortune, pleasure and enjoyment, sex and sexuality, and creativity. This episode provides a detailed survey of the topics associated with the fifth house, drawing on both the traditional textual sources as well as our extensive research of hundreds of birth charts. In part two of this series, we will begin looking at some of these example charts in detail, starting with the ruler of the Ascendant in the fifth house. Then in part three, we will look at the ruler of the fifth house in each of the 12 houses.

In part 2 of our series on the 5th house in astrology we look at examples of famous people that have the ruler of the Ascendant in the fifth house in their birth chart, with astrologers Chris Brennan and Leisa Schaim of The Astrology Podcast. The fifth house is traditionally associated with a wide range of topics in astrology such as children, creativity, pleasure, romance, sex and sexuality, games, and good fortune. In ancient astrology, the Ascendant was sometimes called the helm of the ship of the native's life, and the ruler of the Ascendant was said to be the captain. The house where the captain of the chart is located can tell you a lot about where the life is being directed, and in this episode we explore what happens when the life is directed towards the topics of the fifth house. Over the course of the episode, we explore more than 50 example charts of famous people who have the ruler of the Ascendant in the fifth house in order to demonstrate how this placement can play out in a number of different ways. Some of the charts we look at include those of actors, directors, musicians, comedians, athletes, writers, artists, and more. Through this survey, we are able to see many different concrete manifestations of the fifth house archetype, and develop a more well-rounded and grounded understanding of its meaning. This is the second of a three-part series on the fifth house, which is itself part of our larger series where I've been doing a deep dive on the twelve houses in astrology. In the next episode in this series we will explore the meaning of the ruler of the fifth house in each of the twelve houses, showing how the topics of the fifth house can be exported into other areas of a person's life.

That's your foundation for love and partnership.”
