2026 Lunar Eclipse hits 1933 Solar Eclipse

by Jude Cowell, partisan for the common good

Well, there's no easy way to type this, but the 7 North Series of Solar Eclipses has a long and storied history which tends to include issues of primal violence to the point of animalism as we find within its initial eclipse of October 2, 1103. For details see a previous post, Origin of the Bl*od Lust Eclipse of 1103 (OS) opposed by Pluto in Aries (Rx @14Ari44) during The Crusades era of cut-throat competition for control of The Holy Land and its treasures.

As you know, initial eclipses may be used as a lens through which to read all subsequent eclipses in that series primarily via the Zodiac sign, and its ruler/s, of the initial eclipse. This blending of signs can widen our understanding. With 7 North, it's October 2, 1103's Venus-ruled Libra, sign of balance and fair play.

Yet as you've no doubt noticed, our current era is over-supplied with cut-throat competitors, many of whom are power-craving denizens of Washington, DC - plus, the thugs and vigilantes who serve them (him). Obviously, fair play does not appear on their purge agenda.

And forming a cosmic time link, the Lunar Eclipse of August 28, 2026 @5Pisces will conjunct the 7 North Solar Eclipse of February 24, 1933 with its "blood" lust/deep passion long-hidden takes people by surprise themes (B. Brady) - yet now, anyone reading this post will not be taken by quite as much surprise, will they? This cosmic meeting from 2026 to 1933, though symbolic (or is it?), suggests a Full Moon phase or element to the proceedings of August 2026 - or by August 2026 - a culmination of some sort, particularly in relation to the type of anti-societal events that occurred in 1933 - for the 7N of 1933 is known as the "Fascism Rising" Eclipse, which we've already seen. And we know that current scofflaws are cheering for this but we must resist and deter to whatever extent each of us can, while supporting those on the front lines fighting for democracy and the common good: in other words, life over death!

Meanwhile, with a flurry of historical recognition and a potential for inspiration for the battle, we might add that a 7 North ("7N") Eclipse was the highly influential lunation at the start of the Civil War of April 12, 1861. For your consideration, check out a dual image of the Civil War Horoscope along with the first of a series of Neptune Returns to the planet's 1861 position - rising exploitatively with Mercury; a few details are penned upon the image:

Then here's a printable List of all 2026/2027 Eclipses, if needed:

Finally, below is a view of the April 20, 2023 version of 7 North sprinkled with a generous amount of astro-notes all squooshed upon it (mea culpa!):

So there we have it. Please note that I'm currently attempting to "power through" my tech troubles as best a non-techie can so that SO'W posts can still be published with horoscopes intact, though perhaps not as frequently as 2026 gets underway. So if you made it to the end of this post, Thanks for reading! jc.

Astro-Notes: US Bombs Iran 2025

by Jude Cowell, partisan for the common good

Below are two horoscopic images for you - one a bi-wheel with the Department of Defense (DOD) Horoscope July 26, 1947 (inner; as signed by President Truman minutes before his plane took off at 12:30 pm) surrounded by the US Bombs Iran Horoscope set for June 21, 2025 2:30 am IT Qom, Iran.

Below the bi-wheel is a stand-alone chart with aspect grid of Tr*mp's failure; as you see, nuclear planet Pluto, the assassin, conjuncts the Bombing's Midheaven, the Goal Point. There are YOD patterns of crisis and reaching a crossroads, but more than a mention is beyond the scope of this brief post:

History Rhymes Through Similar Events

A particular factor must be mentioned and that is the Pre-Event ('PE') Solar Eclipse which influenced the founding of the US Defense Department - the 3 North which manifested @28Tau41:59 on May 20, 1947 with themes of "over-excessive or obsessive energy; large plans are wanted but don't get carried away; news that may involve young people - and can transform a situation" (paraphrasing B. Brady). Perhaps you recognize 3 North themes as the Series in which the WTC attacks of 9/11/01 occurred.

Needless to say, the neocons of 2001 got "carried away" and hence we're hearing comparisons between Tr*mp's bombing of Iran's nuclear facilities and America's ill-conceived invasion and war against the Bush-Cheney regime's chosen scapegoats of Afghanistan and Iraq.

Neptunian deceptions are involved both then and now with 2025 Neptune in early Aries aligning in opposition to its 1947 position in Libra. This transit heralds a period of religious and civil persecutions along with clashes of ideals and ideologies, some generational (1947 vs 2025). Yet underneath, East vs West is a basic feature of this period.

Then in the bi-wheel chart we see the Bombing's Uranus @29Tau12 conjunct 1947 North Node, an indicator of karma and of radical reactionary politics. Simultaneously, Uranus conjuncts the 3 North of 1947. And as you know, all eclipses are karmic and Uranian by nature (unpredictable and disruptive) and erratic Uranus conjunct this Eclipse provides us with a cosmic picture of zealots, anarchists, and radical revolutionaries via our current day insurrectionists who call themselves "Maga" and who act as an elite gang of vigilantes, saboteurs, gangsters, thieves, and Republican "politicians" - all who now attack our nation on multiple levels and sport AK-47 pins on their anti-American lapels.

In closing, here's a previous post concerning a related topic, video included, and it's not as far-fetched as we would wish: Will the Tr*mp Admministration Bring on the New Crusades?

Origin of the "Bl*od Lust" Eclipse

by Jude Cowell, partisan for the common good, A Daughter of the American Revolution

Image: Pluto Draws Near; pencil on paper, Jude Cowell Art

In consideration of current societal conditions and the rabid animalism underpinning certain actions of cruelty and brutality against regular folk, this post is a brief study of the initial 7 North Solar Eclipse - the very first manifestation of an eclipse in the 7N Series - with its themes of "bl*od" lust and a very deep passion long-hidden that takes people by surprise (paraphrasing B. Brady).

Full Discloure: I myself have added the word "bl*od" to the eclipse's lusty theme due to 7 North's historical association with violent events such as the Civil War of 1861, and Herr Adolf's rise to power - because a 7N eclipse occurred @5Pis28 ("Officers on Dress Parade") on February 24, 1933 - and is what I've previously described as the "Fascism Rising Eclipse." Because it did.

Then if you're curious, here's a previous post displaying both the 7 North Eclipse Horoscope of the Civil War and the 7 North of April 20, 2023.

So my theory is that "blo*d" lust is embedded within the initial 7 North Eclipse of October 2, 1103 (OS), during The Crusades era of vicious battles, and can be seen through the opposition from then-unknown Pluto which contains the negative quality of "animalism." Plus in 1103, primal violence planet Pluto was in Mars-ruled Aries, with the placement's strong "craving for leadership" vibes. How perfect for fighting medieval battles with "blo*d lust" as your underlying motivation.

Meanwhile, if we fast forward to the 7 North of April 20, 2023 (Little Adolf's "birthday eclipse") @29Ari50, Pluto @00AQ19 squares the eclipse which adds potentials for criminal behavior, ruthlessness, cruel urges, and torture to the "bl*od lust theme. Sound like any public figure you know?

Well, of course! Because you know that this position of powerful Pluto conjoined America's POTUS Sun on Inauguration Day 2025 - in other words, it's his nibs, as I sometimes call the blighter. And the Sun-Pluto duo is associated with the craving for power, Plutocracy, and with criminal organizations. 'Nuff said.

So! in case you've so far missed it, here's an informative video presentation of Jason Stanley's The 10 Tactics of Fascism. Sad to say, it's quite a checklist for our times.

Eclipse of The Crusades to the Holy Land

The Crusades (1095--1291): a 17 South Eclipse Affair

by Jude Cowell, partisan for the common good

Officially, the never-ending battle between Christianity and Islam began with the Council of Clermont held November 17--27, 1095. Of significance is the speech by Pope Urban II on November 27, 1095 with his "call to arms." Or as we might say or tweet in our day, things will be wild, which qualifies as Trump's "call to arms" against the peaceful transfer of power from his nibs to President Joe Biden. Forcefully taking control being the goal in 2021 and in 1095.

Then you may remember that some participants in the violent melee of January 6, 2021, instigated by insurrectionist Trump, said that fighting to defend the US Congress and Capitol Building that day felt "medieval." Obviously, similar destructive energies were at work, past and present, but can Astrology reveal a cosmic time link between America's current religious zealots attempting to forcefully change our secular government (separation of church and state: unlike the Vatican--see 'Roman Empire' link, below) into a fascist-adjacent theocracy under figurehead Donald Trump (or one of his ilk) - and the religious zealots of the 11th century?

17 South: 'success in groups and relationships; good news' -B. Brady

Why yes, it can! And it's the Solar Eclipse Series in which the Council of Clermont was held and Pope Urban II's "call to arms" speech of November 27, 1095 which resulted in what we call The Crusades: the 17 South Saros Series which manifested prior to the Council and Pope Urban's "call to arms" speech. The Eclipse occurred on September 1, 1095 @14Vir19. Fast-forward to today and 17 South's repetition occurred as the Spring Equinox 2015 Eclipse which brought the US and the world Trump's malevolent escalator prez bid announcement the morning of the June 16, 2015 New Moon, with his racist remarks intact (text).

So here are the horoscopes I'm using for this post: first the initial 17 South Eclipse @9Gem56 which carries energies of a rebellious Saturn-Uranus square bolstered by a violent Mars-Pluto square, and a delusional Venus-Neptune square; these multi-square energies are passed on to all subsequent 17 South eclipses despite its pleasant "good news" and "success" themes - when times and conditions support such difficult energies:

And here's a dual image showing the 17 South Eclipse of 1095 (lower left) and 2015 (upper right):

Meanwhile, current-day religious zealots such as House Speaker Maga Mike Johnson, Raphael Cruz (Ted's poppa), Maga Rep. Lauren Boebert, and Trump-supporter Pastor Paula White are part of 7 Mountain Dominionism a movement which seeks to take control of America in the areas of family, religion, education, media, entertainment, business, and government - what they term the "7 Spheres of Society." Biblical texts from Isaiah and the Book of Revelation are used to justify a mandate to take over the world, they think - and devil-may-care what it takes to bring on Armadgeddon (as if God works bwo their timetable!).

Thing is, this particular religious delusion began in 1975 with a vision from God which makes me wonder what vision they'll promote once the visionary and prophetic influences of the Great American Eclipse in the 8 North Saros Series manifests on April 8, 2024 @19Ari24 - conjunct priestly Chiron, the Christ archetype in Astrology - also @19Ari24. Plus, this position conjuncts America's Chiron of July 4, 1776 @20Ari08 = "21Aries: "A Pugilist Entering the Ring." It's all unsettlingly synchronicitous, isn't it?.

A Knights Templar Link to 2022

Then another cosmic time link exists bwo the Knights Templar founding's Prenatal Eclipse Series ('PE'), the 6 North which repeated on April 30, 2022 @10Taurus with themes of 'relationship to authority figures; accepting new commitments due to another's illness or unreliability' (paraphrasing B. Brady). Their 6 North of November 4, 1138 occurred @18Sco37 opposed by Pluto Rx @18Tau11 which suggests 'animalism, barbarism, and criminal offenses' (R. Lineman) so if you'd like to set up a horoscope of the Knights Templar's 6 North Eclipse, try 3:06:50 pm LMT, Rome, Italy, or set the chart for the Vatican, if you have those coordinates.

Now in closing, dear reader, perhaps we might agree that there's quite a significant thread of cosmic time links shown here by eclipse cycles and the historical cycles, conditions, and events that they rhyme with. And eclipses cycling around again on the karmic 18.6-year Nodal Axis gives humanity opportunities to better deal with events and conditions than before - if karmic progress is the goal.
