The USA chart now

Whenever I’m looking at a mundane chart, I like to go back to a time in history when the planets being triggered currently were triggered before. Usually, for people AND countries, these themes repeat. For the USA Sibly chart (July 4, 1776 at 5:12 pm in Philadelphia, PA., but because of some historical dates, I’m leaning more toward Rudhyar’s time of 5:14 pm for the USA.), the last time the progressed Sun was in aspect to the ascendant, as it is now, it was around the time leading up to the stock market crash of 1929. And just before that, in 1924 there was the Immigration Act that essentially severely limited immigration into the country—in fact banning Asians altogether.

“The Immigration Act of 1924 limited the number of immigrants allowed entry into the United States through a national origins quota. The quota provided immigration visas to two percent of the total number of people of each nationality in the United States as of the 1890 national census. It completely excluded immigrants from Asia.”

A lot is going on in this chart and also Trump’s so I’ll have to post these essays in segments. First, the USA progressed Moon is about to change phase from disseminating to third quarter square (on March 1^st). The third quarter square (all of these phases last about 3 ½ years) is noted for being rebellious, but in the context of the law. I call it “legal rebellion” because it is not the hot-headed upheaval we see in the first quarter square. Furthermore, it is going to be right on the Sibly (Sibley? –spelled both ways in various books) chart’s ascendant…i.e. the progressed Moon will be conjunct; the progressed Sun is squaring. Before this year is over, Neptune will trigger it (March 30th, Sep 8^th, and again on Jan. 31, 2018) which would indicate smoke screens and intense deception. However, Uranus will be triggering the USA’s Mars/Neptune square, so a great deal of “awakening” is going on, as well.

I’ve often mentioned that whenever we have gone to war the Mars/Neptune square has been triggered. That configuration is the indication of our government’s massive deceptions, which verifies that foreign conflicts we initiate (ninth house Neptune) are usually under some pretext. Even today, Mercury is transiting the USA’s Pluto (ruling the 12^th), opposing our 8^th house Mercury, which would indicate covert communications on a large scale.

Solar arc Saturn has been opposing the ascendant for a year, (and less than a year with the Rudhyar chart), which shows the mood of the country is depressed. When the Progressed Moon triggers it roughly a month, we should see that erupt into public awareness not seen yet. In summation, the biggest thing I notice is the natal Sun/Saturn square has moved to activate the ascendant, with the progressed Moon right now less than a degree from triggering it. Also, transiting Mars is about to trigger the USA’s natal Sun/Saturn square February 14-17—boiling over frustration publicly. Not only that, but transiting Pluto is right now square progressed Mars, and that is rage.

Next I’ll write about Trump’s chart—we have a good time of birth for him—and last, an examination of the composite between his chart and the USA. I’ve found the composite to be extremely valuable.
