On St. Valentine’s Day 1884, young Theodore Roosevelt lost his mother and then his wife after childbirth, and wrote this:

The Moon, waxing through first quarter, passes similar-looking Mars and Aldebaran high in the evening sky.

This Valentine’s Day, we find so much to love in the many heart-shaped objects created by Mother Nature that can be found right here on Earth or all the way to the deepest reaches of the sky.

#MundaneAstrology The most important transit that Donald Trump has now, is transiting Pluto in opposition to his natal Saturn- lord of the 6th & 7th houses. According to Curtis Manwaring, "Transiting Pluto opposite your natal Saturn. You will have to become more disciplined and stoic in the face of adversity now. Traditions, responsibilities and regulations are going through a period of revision and breakdown. Security is often a major concern because the limitations that we...re in place no longer apply. You may feel vulnerable, find yourself preoccupied with morbidity and death or you may have to deal with corruption on some level. The old solutions to problems don't work any more and you have to find new ways to overcome limitations. This is often a very austere period." As it turns out, Nazi Germany had this exact same transit at the end of it's reign. "Nazi Germany was born on January 30, 1933 at 11 am when Adolf Hitler was appointed Chancellor. The chart for this time indicates a country under severe tension. There are numerous tension points which, if transited, would be expected to coincide with crises in the State. And so events proved." (page 379 of Mundane Astrology by Baigent, Campion, and Harvey) Pluto opposition Saturn: October 1942 to June 1945 "This period saw the end of the Third Reich. It started with the two battles which spelled the breaking of German power: El Alamein late in October 1942, and the beginning of the successful Russian counterattack at Stalingrad in late November 1942. The latter ended with the retreat and surrender of immense German forces. The German army was now on the defensive. This fits the symbolism of Pluto opposing Saturn - ever increasing power opposing the armed might of the German government. The end of the period coincided with the end of Germany, for on May 7, 1945, the final surrender of all German forces was made." (page 383 of Mundane Astrology by Baigent, Campion, and Harvey)

By Cathy Coleman, PhD In the Stars November 1 - 8, 2020 This week begins with the vision, inspiration, and ease of a Sun-Neptune trine. Take it easy for a couple of days. There has been so much tension and pressure demanding our attention. We can take a rest and rejoice.... The big planetary news this week is the third and final Jupiter-Pluto conjunction at 22-23 degrees of Capricorn, the first one being April 5th in the early stage of the advance of Covid-19. When this conjunction expresses positively, power can be galvanized through wisdom and knowledge; wealth and resources can be garnered for philanthropy or positive endeavors. Big things can happen; let's direct this energy for good. We may experience some exaggeration of various matters. If these degrees influence your horoscope, you may expect financial or professional rewards. Mercury is now direct, and Mars will go direct in the coming week. Joe Biden has been elected after a long period of uncertainty about the winner, to be expected with Mercury stationing direct on election day and Mars (as well as Uranus and Chiron) retrograde. I write this with one ear to the news of the day that Biden has been elected, and that the vice-president-elect is African-American and Asian-American. I feel hopeful about the future evolution of better racial relations in our country. Potent, challenging planetary movements can bring radical change. A New Moon in Scorpio emerges at the end of the week Saturday night at 9:07 p.m. PST. When the Sun is in Scorpio as it is this month, we want to draw inward. In addition to the Scorpio Moon we have the dark Moon Thursday through Saturday before the New Moon. These are days we need more solitary time than usual, and withdrawal from the world. Allow time for extra sleep toward the weekend.

The Leo Moon party vibe Fox News reporter in DC: "Not a lot of violence or any kind of real commotion here, primarily, perhaps, because of just how much marijuana is being smoked. The smell of that is quite pungent in the air right now."

The Great Mutation conjunction of Jupiter and Saturn at 0*29' Aquarius (global reset; paradigm shifting from earth to air), is same day as the December 21, 2020 Capricorn solstice- and a month before the Biden Inauguration. #BestEpisode_EVER

Bonatti's 145th consideration applies to Trump with Cor Leonis, aka Regulus, on the Ascendant. 145. The 145th Consideration is, That thou see in Diurnal Nativities, whether Cor Leonis (Regulus) be in the Ascendant, that is to say in the Oriental Line or above it one degree or below it three degrees; or whether it be in the tenth in like degrees, without the Conjunction or Aspect of any of the Fortunes; for this alone signifies that the Native shall be a person of great note a...nd power, too much exalted, and attain too high preferment and honors, although descended from the meanest parents. And if any of the Fortunes behold that place also, his glory shall be the more increased: but if the Nativity be nocturnal, his fortune will be somewhat meaner, but notmuch; but if the Infortunes cast their aspects there it will still be more mean; but if theFortunes behold it also they will augment the good promised a fourth part, and mitigate the evil as much; yet still whatever of all this happens, it signifies that the Native shall die an unhappy death; or at least that all his honours, greatness, and power, shalt at last suffer an eclipse, and set in a cloud. https://www.sta.co/pdf/Bonatus146_STA.pdf See more

This upcoming lunation also falls on the Asc of this year's USA ingress; another reason to note its importance. According to Arabic astrologers this ingress represents the 'accession chart' for the new ruler that rises to power this year. It connects strongly to Biden's nativity. ~@DeborahHoulding The June 20, 2020 Cancer ingress in DC. also has 25 Scorpio on the Ascendant. Interestingly- the Sun was at 25 Scorpio on Nov. 17, 2019, the first reported case of COVID in Wuhan, China.
