2017 Cansolar

[Jim Eshelman]

This ingress occurs July 17, 2017, 5:07:50 AM EDT. For Washington, DC its particulars are a follows:

Jupiter sq. Asc (1°24')
Pluto on Dsc (4°22')
-- Jupiter-Pluto sq. (2°42')
Moon-Mercury sq. (0°00' in mundo)
Moon-Uranus conj. (3°57')

Aspects of note for other parts of the world include especially Mars square Uranus (26') and the wider but important Sun-Mars conjunction (3°00').

Russia also is dominated by the same Jupiter-Pluto. Here is the breakdown for Moscow.

Pluto on IC (0°40')
Jupiter on Asc (1°00')
-- Jupiter-Pluto sq. (1°40' in mundo)
Sun on MC (7°54')
Moon-Uranus conj. (0°51' in mundo)
Moon-Mars sq. (1°36' in mundo)

As a possible supplement, Uranus is 0°24' past Vertex in azimuth, or 0°23' past in amplitude. Jupiter is 0°59' before Asc in altitude, which gives a Jupiter-Uranus square ~1°22'. Uranus also squares Pluto 0°34' in azimuth.

My U.S. forecast for this chart, for its quarter, was as follows:

Angular Jupiter (square Asc 1°24') reinforces the strong, mostly positive Jupiter trends of the Capsolar for three months, but with a twist: Jupiter now squares a foreground Pluto. In some ways this reiterates messages of the Capsolar's Jupiter-Uranus emphasis, especially regarding social rebellion and remapping the larger social contract (something we have seen in many ways over the last six months, but especially in the battle over health care). Jupiter-Pluto is intensely political and ideological. It challenges existing value systems and the political and other power systems that support them. We have seen this in recent years for terrorist attacks that target cultural values more than governments, as well as other attempts at political destabilization. We also know that, while it can be the unlikely king-maker, it is even more likely to drag the uplifted from their pinnacles into stunning ruin. Anything represented by Jupiter is open to extremes and ruin (including meteorological events and the economy - though other current indications do not resemble patterns of serious economic falls, so manifestations more likely will be political).

Of great importance is a Moon-Mercury mundane square which, for Washington, has a 0°00' orb. It is not clear how this pairs with the Jupiter-Pluto indications. Since it pairs with a wide Moon-Uranus aspect, it surely refers to constant streams of information that express discoveries and disclosures, innovations and novelties. Given its extreme precision for the U.S., this should be an especially good quarter to watch for Moon-Mercury effects. In a time when the news media saturates our awareness, I nonetheless predict it will be even more prevalent - that, in great measure, the media itself will become the story. Otherwise, besides the celebrity and media element, expect situations (as in business) that involve voluminous paperwork or its digital equivalent, strategy, tactical moves, and news outlets fixating our attention as they rarely do - think of the OJ trial or the days of 9/11.

In the last days of this Cansolar with Jupiter exactly angular and square a setting Pluto, Mueller just indicted 12 more: All Russians, GRU members (meaning, what they used to call KGB), all "working within their official capacity."

Coming immediately before Helsinki, I think this timing is magnificent: It should make Helsinki feel more like plain Hell.
