UK General Election – YIKES! Could Corbyn actually win?
With the UK general election coming up next week, folks are getting a bit nervous. Given the surprise results of both the BREXIT referendum and the US presidential elections, they are worrying that ‘anything’ could happen and so they should.

Will his Russian Intrigue bring Trump Down?
Will the current ‘intrigue’ regarding Trump and Russia ‘bring him down’? _____________________ SUMMARY YES & NO – although clearly Mr Trump has ‘enemies’ (secret or otherwise) in regards to this ‘intrigue’ – enemies who are far stronger than is he – it remains unclear whether they will (or even whether they will try to) damage…

Britannia Rules the Waves aka BREXIT (remix)
On Wednesday, Theresa May triggered Article 50 and BREXIT begins; I would not be surprised if the UK government employed astrologers to advise as to the timing of this – the astrological symbolism is perfect: Five planets (Venus, Sun, Uranus, Moon, Mercury) Clustered in ARIES (fighting fit) – cardinal (whoosh) fire Highly visible at the…

Will Trump’s executive order re: recent travel ban be declared (by the courts) as unconstitutional? NO – although clearly the constitution is in serious conflict with the President and his executive order, some readjustment between the order and the constitution will occur (within 17 hours or possibly 17 days) that will prevent the courts from deciding…

PUTIN and TRUMP – Astro basics lovers of ‘truth’ ought not to ignore
Some have suggested that Putin and Trump are two peas in a pod – and on the surface, it might look as if this is true. But astrologically, you couldn’t ask for two different men, at least in regards to ‘truth’: Both men share close contacts between Mercury and Neptune – hence the construction and…

Donald Trump – astro basics you can’t afford to ignore
