An inmate returning from sentencing (45 years for killing a man for, he said, being an idiot) got a weapon away from a sheriff's deputy while being transferred from the transport van, and shot two deputies.
He took the van, crashed through the garage door, and drove off. He crashed the van (hard to drive with leg shackles) attempted to carjack a man who he shot and injured, then hijacked a woman who stopped to see if anyone was hurt. She drove him into Omaha where he dropped her off at a liquor store, and was then recaptured when he crashed the car while trying to make it onto I-480 before 11:30 AM. (Got better at driving with leg shackles, but never mastered it.) He was uninjured.
One of the deputies died about 2:00 PM. The other is in fair condition expected to survive.
The body of the deputy was escorted from the hospital in Omaha where both had been transported to Iowa by an honor guard of Omaha police, and then to the Iowa state police forensic lab in Ankeny by at least 20 state, county and local police vehicles from Iowa and Nebraska.

That Venus... if people were lining up along access roads to the local sheriff's department and putting up balloons and plaques with sentimental verses on them, leaving candles and covering a police vehicle parked in front of the jail with flowers
without this murder having taken place, wouldn't the Venus be appropriate?
Every newscast starts with five minutes on the dead officer, his life, his family, his neighbors, and how sad everybody is over his death. When that officer is buried, people will be lined up along the entire route between the church and the cemetery four and five deep, praying and waving and holding signs and throwing flowers. It will be like Diana's funeral motorcade. Isn't that Venus?

This does not apply to immigrants or undocumented immigrants, who are not criminals, and I am glad that it does not apply to these people.
So, the Capsolar has Pluto closely on the Dsc in Austin.
The other charts look kind of dead, but I think it's probably because, despite the protestors, this was expected here in Texas. People have been pushing for this bill for years.

The charts may still be weak because it hasn't become law. I think this is especially a consequence of Saturn in Sagittarius more generally, but something is stirring in Austin to be sure.
Pluto is more than 3° from Descendant in the CAPSOLAR, but that's OK because Mercury is only 0°06' from Westpoint, i.e., the chart is viable.
The ARISOLAR also has Pluto angular, 0°42' from square MC, with a Sun-Uranus conjunction near MC and Jupiter near IC. Lots happening there, and it resembles the U.S. Capsolar for Washington.
Getting something passed (administrative paperwork, more or less) seems anticipated by the CAPLUNAR, with Mercury-Sun conjunct straddling Descendant, plus a foreground Moon-Uranus square. Pretty neutral, but on the right track.
A, the real zinger of a chart is the Arilunar (since the Canlunar is dormant). It has Moon-Mercury-Uranus tightly on MC. This is the same chart that sent tornadoes tearing up the region last week.
Then yesterday, that Pluto came back into play. The Austin CapQ had Pluto on an angle for the day. (Jupiter and Uranus are getting their turn over the next week.)

France, and Europe, remain safe for the nonce. Viva la France!
The mundane charts BTW showed IMO primarily the turmoil, challenge, and uncertainty. The Arisolar is especially reflective of this. The daily charts seemed to not have much to say except for one sweet Venus transit.

The polls were right. They're done differently than they are in the US and the UK. The votes also get counted up right away, so they know the outcome within a couple hours of the end of the election.

If you read my forecast for this week, based on the Liblunar, I don't
exactly mention this, but I do speak of the dance of deception and betrayal (based on Mars-Neptune). I assure you that we will find this exact set of principles playing out in this event, as well as plenty of pure Neptune smoke and mirrors.
So, what exactly came down astrologically this afternoon?
Well, at the time of the announcement, the 0°08' Mercury-Uranus conjunction was setting. You all know what the Capsolar looks like (and the Arisolar adds only a smoke-and-funhouse-mirror Moon-Neptune aspect). The Caplunar is all Mars, and the Liblunar is Mars-Neptune etc. (I'll still be surprised if we get out of this week without an act of war.)
The CapQ has transiting Sun on Descendant, which doesn't tell us much - it just speaks of strong presidential presence and (because they move at the same speed) it is in orb for weeks. Pluto remains transiting Capsolar WP, so no bold, separative, shocking event is shocking. The final straw, though - which I cited in the monthly forecast - is transiting Saturn conjunct CanQ Ascendant. (They were 0°41' apart when the news was announced.) Ingress Pluto is < 1° from CanQ EP. You can't get more separative than a combination of Saturn and Pluto.
We aren't quite in "Tuesday Afternoon Massacre" territory yet, but the astrological tone is much the same.

Trump in melt-down?
Posted: Fri May 12, 2017 7:53 am
by Jim Eshelman
President Trump, apparently soon after waking, unleashed a tweet storm that... on its face seems incredibly self-destructive and disintegrating.
Among other things, he publically warned former FBI Director Comey that there better not be tapes (as if "Watergate" hadn't been said often enough this week), threatened to shut down White House press briefings, and, after casting doubt on whether people should trust Kelleyanne Conway, the Vice President, and Comey's termination letter with Trump's signature, he said that reporters shouldn't expect accurate information from his White House.
Here is a summary better than mine:
https://www.nytimes.com/2017/05/12/us/p ... fings.html
I don't know whether to feel appalled, cheer, or just shake my head. (And surely his staff don't know either. There are ways one says things like this, and most of them don't involve pointing a loaded prosecutor at one's own head.)
My "Trump Watch" forecast for this period reads as follows:
DEMI-SLR (April 29)
Things get even worse [for him] in the last half of his month. In the Demi-SLR, Mars is 0°01' (a mere minute!) from square Midheaven in Washington. Saturn is 0°31' from Descendant. Moon rises within a degree, and Moon opposes Saturn across the horizon (1°31' wide in mundo).
It's bad for him. His health and physical well-being are under serious assault. Our challenge is to discern where this comes from. While the nation's well-being may be at risk, this seems much more a personal attack - a ferocious one - on either his physical or political health. Pluto-Jupiter and Uranus-Saturn are in force, of course, and both of his luminaries are broadly angular - which makes it seem more personal.
For that matter, the normal forecast for the nation for this week hits several nails squarely on the head:
Liblunar (May 8)
The Liblunar covers May 8-16. This is the worrisome week, concentrating all the factors that have built in earlier lunar ingresses of the month.
For the third week we have Moon-Mercury-Uranus, now a partile opposition. Neptune, for the second week, is exactly angular. To these, add a foreground Mars-Neptune square (0°32' in mundo). Panic is the keyword. Expect terror, surging adrenaline, heightened hysterical emotion - increasing risk of treachery, sabotage, other betrayal, poisoned relationships, and scandal. Typical expressions of this aspect include fires, violent natural events, leader deaths or crises, populist uprisings or mobs, financial panics, and mass murders.
Saturn conjoins CanQ Asc May 10, and Pluto squares MC May 11 (each felt two days either side). These look like the central crisis days for Washington and the nation.
Yesterday was the day of the exact Mars-Neptune square, and Saturn is currently on CanQ angles for Washington - my basic "go to" for "bad day in Washington," or "days you really wish you weren't president."
Wanna Decryptor
Posted: Fri May 12, 2017 10:59 am
by Jim Eshelman
Have literally weeks of a Mercury-Uranus conjunction (possibly made malicious by a partile trine from Saturn), come up to the day of a malicious Mars-Neptune square, give if a few more hours for Moon to snap into perfect T-square with the Mars-Neptune, and what do you get?
You get a world-spanning cyber attack that so far has touched 12 countries. The "Wanna Decryptor" ransomware has been rolled out by the hacking group Shadow Brokers. They built this based on technology previously developed by the NSA, and disclosed when Shadow Brokers dumped volumes of NSA classified papers onto the Internet. Microsoft patched this vulnerability soon after it was disclosed (months ago), but some kinds of businesses - especially hospitals - are notoriously slow to install patches.
So far, this attack (which began in England) has spread to 12 countries this morning.

We watch the Washington ingresses scrupulously. It seems a good time to take a fresh look with this event to focus our attention.

NYC car on sidewalk
Posted: Thu May 18, 2017 10:18 am
by Jupiter Sets at Dawn
Just about an hour ago, about 11:55 AM eastern, 5-18-2017, in NYC, a car going the wrong way on 7th Ave jumped the curb in Times Square and plowed through a group of pedestrians, before hitting the passive barriers and deflecting into a lightpole. One person dead, 23 injured over the three block path up 7th Ave, ending at 45th and Broadway. If you've been to NYC, you've been there.
The driver, Richard Rojas, a 26-year-old Bronx resident with two prior DWIs, got out and tried to run, punching a police officer while being arrested.
Probably not terrorism.
Update: He drove 3 blocks on the sidewalk.

New York's Caplunar, similar to that of Washington, has a Venus-Jupiter opposition across the horizon - even closer in NYC. Venus is 0°23' above Asc, Jupiter 1°28' above Dsc, their mundane opposition is 1°51' wide. And then there is also a more widely rising Uranus (which is also square Moon).
Daily timing off the Capsolar is pretty broad, though accurate enough. Transiting Uranus is 0°36' from the Capsolar MC, and, for the whole world, transiting Sun squares Capsolar Moon today (0°39' for the event). Transits to solar ingresses seem to be the trend of the day, because Saturn is transiting Cansolar MC (0°06').
Ariana Grande Concert bomb

In Manchester, England at 10:30 PM tonight (May 22, 2017), 22 people are dead (and dozens more injured) following an explosion from an ISIL-inspired bomber, near the end of an Ariana Grande concert. Police are treating it as a terrorist attack.
Mars and Saturn were both near the horizon at 10:30 PM, and Pluto was exactly on EP. The charts are fine, up through the Caplunar for the month/week, then we have only a very world-generic trigger - but a strong one - for the last date. (I expected a lot more Neptune, considering the psychological tone portrayed.)

This has turned into more of a national event for Great Britain - worst terrorist attack since the London subway attack in 2005, etc. So perhaps I should reexamine it for London.
The Cansolar adds two additional, important, utterly appropriate aspects because Neptune slips into foreground range. The Arisolar changes it focus entirely and becomes a clear chart of radical attack against the nation (instead of, for Manchester, a primary celebration-entertainment theme with some radical disruption). The Caplunar weakens a little, losing the Mars and wide Neptune, but holds onto partile Pluto (even a little tighter). The CapQ goes from mostly neutral to distinctly poor, and the CanQ (already poor for Manchester) has questionable elements for London, but ultimately is a better chart.

Egyptian Christian pilgrims killed
Posted: Fri May 26, 2017 4:09 pm
by Jim Eshelman
Armed assailants halted and emptied a bus of Christian pilgrims and killed 28 of them when they refused to recite the Muslim declaration of faith.
It occurred today, May 26, 2017. This occurred in the desert 120 miles south of Cairo in Minya Province; I imagine the town of Minya is close enough for our purposes, though the province mostly extends west of the town, and the event was described as occurring in the western Egyptian desert.
NY Times reported this just before 7 AM PDT, which was 4:00 PM in Egypt. Usually this news breaks several hours after the event, and I suspect it was a mid-morning event, but I'll probably use noon unless we get something more specific.

FWIW, I expected a lot of obvious Neptune for this event, and didn't get it. I'm therefore intrigued that when I check the PSSI of the Capsolar (just using mean rate, for an average-length year - the PSN tool I adapted into Solar Fire, just to see if anything is in the ball park) I get, for Manchester:
PSSI EP 18°57' Aquarius
t Neptune 19°07' Aquarius
For London we get something else other interesting, seeming on-target results (and remember that there are tiny inaccuracies built into these numbers aside from the question of whether it should be mean or apparent rate):
PSSI MC 23°19' Scorpio
Capsolar Mars 25°04' Aquarius

This was a horrible story. Does anyone have a time for it?
Portland's Arisolar has a half-degree Venus-Pluto mundane square about 2° from the angles. The Caplunar has Pluto 2° from IC.
For the day, the CapQ is mostly a miss (unless you credit an angular Jupiter with the Good Samaritan intervention).
