Many blessings to you
***
Thank you very much, Michael. This is exactly the specific information I needed.

I love the way you can put together the asteroids, planets, Eris, BML, etc. So much thorough detail. I am really appreciating this!! I am very grateful for your input on this matter.

"The natal chart is like a seed and progressions are the unfolding in time of that into the plant it is to become. Transits, are like a daily weather report. In political astrology, these three factors have to be taken into account!"

re: Trump's Solar Return - Jupiter on his Asc could ensure that he overdoes it--and by "it", I mean "everything". This makes me think about his need for BIG. He exaggerates incessantly. Everything's "HUGE". So his "bigness" is something about which he feels inadequate. Anyway, now this huge bigness exaggeration thing takes center stage. I don't think that it necessarily will be a good thing. He needs a year with Solar Return Saturn on his Asc to small him down some.
re: Trump's 12th house - I am having trouble locating your post on Trump's troubles with his progressed moon entering his 12th house. I believe it is sometime this month. Will you please help me? As always, I look forward to reading your Monday NewsScope. Your interpretations are brilliant.
A. Here are the most recent pieces on his progressed Moon entering his 12th house:
re: NBA Finals - I wonder if you are aware that we now have birth certificate times for both LeBron James and Stephen Curry. ABC News did a feature about them, according to AstroDatabank.
A. Thanks for that info.
re: NBA Finals - I always love the astro-events. But I'm not terribly interested in basketball. Your discussion of what's happening and why is interesting, though.
re: astro-event #1 - You wrote that the "Best days for romantic outings and adventures are on the 1st, 2nd, 3rd, 6th to 10th, 18th, 19th, 23rd and 24th." My niece's art show takes place on June 22nd and 23rd. It sounds like this aspect may help her. But when you say "romantic encounters and adventures", do you mean that adventures in general will be romantic (because more people are involved in relationships than in art)?
A. This is a Venus indicator. I said romantic, but it surely could be about art. Most definitely.
re: Trump supporters - I enjoy your analysis but I am dumbstruck that you continue to publish "queries" from Trump supporters armed with the alternative fact narrative. Giving them a platform is ridiculous and takes away from your credibility. The latest is the query regarding the "crimes" of Susan Rice. First, incidental collection of Americans during a counter intelligence investigation is the norm. And it is the prerogative of the NSA, the CIA and the FBI to unmask the names of the Americans as they see fit. There is no crime. Has there be a trial? Unless there has, why are you printing spin and misinformation?
Similar to the "crimes" of Hillary Clinton. Was there a trial that we missed? It is right wing propaganda that you continually to give air time to and it is getting old. How about just be neutral? And do not give a platform to bs.
A. Unfortunately for those with hard and fast political opinions, NewsScope is read by followers of both the left and right. We all assess what's happening through our political, religious, and culture filters. I try and be as objective as possible in the actual articles. Readers' opinions in this feedback section are their own, not mine.
re: Otto Warmbier - Any insights into Otto Warmbier’s horoscope as it relates to the USA and North Korea? His story has got to be one of the most obscure and heartbreaking I’ve heard, it made me weep for him. His death conjured an emotional reaction in me that caught me by surprise. I want his death to be avenged swiftly, severely, and unequivocally. It’s so unlike me to feel that especially in reference to such a wildcard country like North Korea, but it’s incomprehensible what that boy must have gone through.
re: Otto Warmbier - Even I who try to isolate myself from all pain was moved by the coma Otto Warmbier was brought back in. This was very tragic. And it hurt one's heart. That young man returned to his family like that for something so small. Very vicious what was done to him and totally unnecessary.
re: health care - Can you give insight into whether it will become law? The irony is that his political base are the folks who will be financially & medically devastated by its passage. Are the Republican congressmen & senators aware of the consequences for themselves at the ballot box? I'm mystified.re: health care - Isn't the dark of the moon, and in this case, (specifically the day before the new moon) the worst time to start or unveil a new project? What does this bode for Trumpcare?
A. Yes, that sounds right. Notice how the plan was developed in secret, which is in accord with the Balsamic Moon phase, the Dark Moon. It doesn't bode well...
re: Trump's 12th house - So well done, again. Progressed Moon in 12th, Trump is showing us all what 'self-undoing' is all about. I know, i have Moon in the 12th. His boat won't stay afloat much longer.

re: the Queen - Will the Queen stop being the Queen? If Regulus applies to anyone on the entire planet, wouldn't the Solar Eclipse to it affect an actual queen of all people? You talked about "royals"--actual and otherwise. That's what got me wondering. She is right up there at the top of the list of "royals".
re: Mexico - I am a novice in astrology but, I really enjoy your analysis. Do you know of any reliable chart for Mexico as a country? As you probably know we are facing difficult times here.
A. Thanks for your interest... Yes, I use the 1917 horoscope, and you can read about it here: neptunecafearchives./Mexico
I haven't looked at Mexico's chart in some time, but perhaps it's time to do so.
re: Trump - Yes, it is good to "take a break from the melodramatic Trump Presidency." I'm tuning him out more and more.
re: Brexit - I love reading Newscope every Monday but I have waited so long for an article on Brexit and I don't remember seeing it. We Europeans living in UK are very worried about the UK deal falling short of meeting the EU deal. Please can you do a detailed article on what's to come from now until official Brexit March 2019?
A. That's a good story idea. It's great to take a break from the melodramatic Trump presidency.
re: Bugatti - Thanks for the Bugatti info and the video. Now we know at least how the Germans pronounce the name Chiron. Like... sheer'-own' ....I'm starting to save up my $3 million today.
re: Scaramucci's Nodes - You wrote: "Scaramucci’s Mercury is also in Capricorn and conjunct the Moon’s South Node, indicating that his new job is karmic, something that was meant to be." I've always read that the South Node shows you where you've been (and so, you feel very comfortable and familiar there), and the North Node shows you where you need to be going--THAT is your destiny.
A. Mercury is a weight on his past, showing talents as well as problem areas. His North Node is ruled by the Moon, which is in Libra and squares his Mercury. He'll regret losing his wife because equitable partnership is his higher destiny, but the ambitious Mercury in Capricorn is overwhelming.
re: Jane Austin - Thank you so much for such varied and interesting content. Especially the Jane Austen bio. I have always resented her kow-towing attitude towards men, now I know she was a victim of her time.
re: Eclipses - Does an eclipse really make huge chnges when closely touching someone's chart?
A. Yes the eclipse can make for dramatic developments... generally related to the planet and the house being activated. A well aspected planet can bring windfalls, and otherwise not such favorable tidings. Even mainstream media is talking aobut what astrolgoers are predicting. See Newsweek's article here: http://www.newsweek.com/total-solar-eclipse-trump-astrology-prediction-643776
re: Uranus-Neptune - Will you ever cover the flat earth movement? According to independent research the Earth seems to be flat like the Ancients said. The heliocentric model is just a model and unproven. Try "flat earth" on google and see for yourself. It's disturbing. I believe it's the Uranus Neptune Cycle developing with the added notion that Neptune is in Pisces, so we are sensible to deceptions and frauds. Also something regarding religions and science and the clashing of the two, while accepted science has become a religion and unscientific.
re: Eclipses - What are your thoughts on solar eclipse? i see Mars triggers it 9/3. I am concerned. I read an article about Hawaii preparing for possible nuclear attack by North Korea. Also saw their latest ballistic missile launch is able to reach west USA and maybe further. Is this simply fear mongering or is this a justifiable concern!?!
A. I've written many times about the potential military conflict with North Korea - check recent archives. It is a matter of concern... Trump's besieged, and he may use a conflict with North Korea to distract from the FBI investigation into his Russian connections. Or, another way to see it is that Kim Jong Il is insane and needs to be reigned in, and Trump is the one who could do it....
re: Trump - Some reporters on CNN say that their inside contacts talk about how Trump is really panicking now about the investigation because it's looking at his personal finances.
You've said that the last time his Progressed Moon moved through his 12th house, the casino thing happened--essentially, his financial house of cards collapsed. Is it safe to conclude that this is where it appears to be heading? It's disturbing and fascinating all at the same time.
A. Now that Mueller has impaneled a grand Jury, trump's taxes will be inspected. The announcement came as transiting Sun and Mars were right on Trump's 12th house Pluto, which suggests the evidence they are tracking. Pluto here may be associated with illegal racketeering, ie., getting funding from foreign or illegal sources. It should get clearer when Trump's progressed Moon arrives at his natal Pluto in January 2018.
re: the Mooch - Zingo! You may be psychic as well as being an awesome astrologer!
re: the Mooch - Wow! We both saw the same thing--Scaramucci not lasting that long. I had commented about it to my husband 2 days before he was fired. BUT, I NEVER THOUGHT IT WOULD BE ONLY 11 DAYS!!! I had thought/guessed around 6 months.
A. Scaramucci's potty mouth got him in trouble, reflecting the downside of Mercury conjunct his South Node.
re: women in tech - I hope you will deal with the Google engineer being fired for his screed on how women aren't suited for leadership or tech jobs. I noticed that Google fired him on the lunar eclipse day. I had read that one of the things that eclipses do is to bring hidden things to light.
It's certainly true that tech is a place for men who believe in the supremacy of men. It has not helped that tech has a collection of white men dug into this belief, but also men from other cultures who think it is an insult to report to a female manager or believe women can lead, although they may be okay to be around to do clean up work.
The Google engineer that got fired went to Harvard, and it also came to light that his professors had to write a public apology for him when he did a skit in class that implied that great male scientist only rely on women to give them sex as they work their way to greatness. A lot of news outlets didn't report that find.
Anyhow, eclipses bringing the dark side to light, here we have a woman-hater who has a history of stunts, and a president who supports Nazis and white terrorists who come out into the light as if it's "both sides" in fairness.
A. Another way to look at this is about the current Lilith-Saturn conjunction, as I wrote in August's astro-event #5: "Patriarchal worldviews clash with the rising Goddess energy."
re: data - Astrodatabank now has a BC time of 8:58 AM for Kellyanne Conway. Her Moon is exactly trine Pluto, Pisces is rising, and Jupiter is exactly on the Placidus 6th house cusp .Astrodatabank also has a BC time of 12:23 PM for Christie.
A. Good to know, thanks!
re: Trump’s Mars return - I've been wondering about Trump's impending Mars Return (on the heels of the eclipse). Hmm...What can you make of this? Anything?
re: opioid crisis - With opioid drug deaths on the rise, how is this reflected in the U.S. progressed natal chart or current transits of our outer planets, etc. Just curious about your take on this.
A. Good story idea....

re: Yellowstone - Just curious: I am aware that eclipses are often coupled with earthquakes - is there a chart for Yellowstone NP, and if so does it
reflect seismic possibilities? I'm not sure Mexico City is connected, unless it's foretelling of the beginnings of plate movement farther up the road.
A. Yes, Yellowstone has a birth chart, set for March 1, 1872 when it was set aside as the U.S.’s first national park. As far as earthquakes go, note that transiting Uranus is exactly squaring Yellowstone’s natal Uranus. However, it seems there’s something else going on, since it’s simultaneous with other earthquakes, hurricanes, and a simmering volcano. Possibly these are related to the surge in solar flares over the last two weeks.
re: Jupiter and Saturn - In 2019 I will experience both Jupiter and Saturn returns simultaneously, born in 1960. Any bearing on my generation? thanks for your time.
A. Two Saturn Returns and five Jupiter Returns occur at age 59 for everyone. These overlapping cycles make this age particularly noteworthy for most people. Many begin retirement, while others have found a niche and want to keep going. Many born during the Jupiter-Saturn conjunction in Capricorn (1960-61) are particularly ambitious, and have become pillars of society.
re: Louise Hay - In your recent article you state that her Neptune conjunct Part of Fortune in her second house created her self-help book fortune, but Neptune and POF are in her first house. (and Neptune can never progress into the second house because at 26:58 it went retrograde; she was about 40).
She was a powerful (Leo) psychic (Neptune in the first) and lucky (conjunct the POF), but also challenged by (a square from Saturn and an opposition from Jupiter)-duh the patriarchy!
Maybe Vesta, the Priestess, which IS in her second house, in Virgo (books and teachers) and conjunct the Black Moon (fierce feminine) accounts for why women love her. She showed women how the patriarchy had infiltrated their minds and how detrimental that could be. Vesta is trine her Mars in the tenth so it's connected to her career and activities.
A. Yes, Vesta is powerfully placed in her 2nd house. Although Neptune is technically in her 1st house, it’s less than three degrees from her 2nd house cusp, and so a predominant influence over this house’s affairs.
NewsScope for October 2, 2017
By Michael Wolfstar
Mayor Cruz of San Juan, Puerto Rico
Following an impassioned plea for help, San Juan’s mayor clashed with President Trump over how well relief efforts were going after Hurricane Maria struck. Puerto Rico is totally without electricity, and in the rural areas, water and food shortages are imperiling hundreds of stranded communities. Mayor Cruz blamed red tape,* and Trump took it personally, issuing a tweet storm about her poor leadership qualities.
Carmen Yulin Cruz was born with her Pisces Sun conjunct Chiron (February 25, 1963; San Juan, Puerto Rico; time unknown), with both opposing the generational Uranus-Pluto conjunction of the mid-1960s. This configuration looks like a celestial set-up for being a victim of forces beyond one’s personal control. And indeed, San Juan (and Puerto Rico in general) has long been plagued by serious financial problems, unemployment, and a highly polarized political system.
Yet with her Sun closely quincunx to Mars in proud Leo, Mayor Cruz is a fighter. Mars opposes a Mercury-Saturn conjunction in Aquarius, which focuses her competitive spirit into the realm of ideas, giving her a hunger for knowledge and progressive values. Cruz was an honors student, and went on to work for several American corporations in their human resources departments. Note her Moon in Pisces carries an instinctive compassion for the world’s underdogs.
By secondary progression, her Mars at 11º Leo is within one degree of opposing her Mercury. Last week, faster moving transits activated this Mars-Mercury polarity, leading to the war of words with Trump. Cruz is also in the midst of another major progression: her progressed Sun recently entered Taurus and is opposing her progressed Black Moon Lilith: she sees nothing but bleak darkness and hidden motivations (Lilith in Scorpio). She may expect some relief when transiting Jupiter enters Scorpio on October 10.
Millie was filled with guilt and encouraged her husband to have affairs with other women in order to save their marriage. He overcompensated with gusto and built Playboy magazine around this newfound hedonistic lifestyle. Transiting Pluto was exactly squaring his Saturn when the first issue was published in December 1953, featuring Marilyn Monroe’s iconic centerfold. And with Hef’s Saturn squaring the U.S. Moon at 25º Aquarius, his overcompensating psyche would re-shape American opinion, creating a sexual revolution.
Hugh Hefner was born with Saturn in Scorpio sextile his shy, perfectionist Virgo Ascendant (April 9, 1926; 4:20 pm; Chicago, IL), a combination that emphasized his initially conservative view on sexuality as a young adult. Saturn squares Juno, the marriage asteroid, underscoring the rigid, prevailing view of his time that sex should wait until marriage. Yet with Uranus conjunct his Descendant (7th house cusp), he was due for a rude awakening.
On June 25, 1949 when his progressed Venus conjoined natal Uranus, Hef married Millie Williams, his college sweetheart. But just days before the ceremony, she told him she had an affair when he was away in the army. Also at the time, transiting Saturn opposed Hef’s progressed Juno and natal Venus. He learned a hard lesson concerning the interplay of sex and marriage. Hef admitted later that this shocking experience was the most devastating moment in his life.
Hugh Hefner‘s Socio-Sexual Revolution
In Liz Greene’s classic book on Saturn, we learn how feelings of inadequacy in sexual expression are especially strong when Saturn is in Scorpio. “The effects of overcompensation can help to produce the overly promiscuous person,” she writes, “who is trying particularly hard to be ‘sexy’ because he or she is dimly aware of a fundamental problem of relating emotionally to another person.”
The Prince’s natal Venus in Leo is a major player in his chart. Its conjunction with Ceres and alignment with Jupiter gives him empathy for women’s rights. Then, Venus’s square to Pluto suggests his vast economic reform projects as well as his personal lavish lifestyle. In April 2015, when transiting Saturn was trine his Venus, Mohammad was given control of Aramco by royal decree. Valued at $10 trillion, Aramco is the world’s most valuable corporation.
Prince Mohammad was born with his Virgo Sun closely quincunx Jupiter in Aquarius (August 31, 1985; Jiddah, Saudi Arabia; time unknown), giving the young leader a natural interest in progressive social policies. Jupiter is often associated with royalty, and on June 21, 2017, Mohammad was designated the Crown Prince, making him the heir apparent to the throne. At the time, his progressed Sun was at 8º Libra and exactly trine his natal Jupiter.
Prince Mohammad’s Sun is also square Uranus in the religious sign of Sagittarius, an iconoclastic aspect that is ready and willing to take on the religious scholars. Like Mayor Cruz, the Crown Prince was born with Mars in Leo dynamically configured with Mercury and Saturn, making him a strong leader with ambitious ideas and plans. His “Vision 2030” plan will restructure Saudi Arabia’s entire economy over the next decade.
Crown Prince Mohammad’s Reforms
Last week Saudi Arabia’s ban on women drivers was lifted, and within a few days, so was the ban on women issuing fatwas. The driving force behind these reforms was Crown Prince Mohammad bin Salmon, who has also been promoting other economic and social improvements. The long-standing ultra-conservative religious values in Saudi Arabia and beyond are now being questioned by millions of Muslims.*
