Events of 2015 & 2016

The Astrology of 2015 & 2016

In 2015, Uranus in Aries was still squaring Pluto in Capricorn. This shows conflict between extreme factors. Because it is happening in cardinal signs, it shows conflict between the movers and the shakers. Saturn was and is in Sagittarius except from mid-June until mid-September of ’15 when it backed into late Scorpio. While it is in Sagittarius, it squares Neptune in Pisces. This mutable square shows a conflict of beliefs and viewpoints. We should note that we have conflict between fire and earth and fire and water. All of this makes for extreme weather as it shows up in weather charts. Jupiter was in Leo until it went into Virgo on August 11th 2015. At times Jupiter stimulated the Saturn/Neptune square. In 2016, both of these squares mentioned above are still in effect. Jupiter will connect with the Uranus/Pluto square starting in early Sept 2016. This shows a legal element coming into the conflict. Also in 2016, Mars in Sagittarius will tie into the Saturn Neptune square in March, April, May, August, and September. This will create more tension and trouble. This takes things up a notch. For most of 2016 Mars is in Scorpio or Sagittarius. It is in Scorpio in Jan., Feb., June, and July. Scorpio is a financial sign. As I write this in Jan. ’16, look at what has already happened in the stock market. Generally, I expect 2016 to be much like 2015.

An important and enduring event in ’15 and ’16 is the presidential campaign. Our two important squares certainly represent enough conflict to match the conflict we see daily as the contenders vie. The Uranus Pluto square is especially important because it is connecting with our Cancer Sun and Mercury in the U.S. chart.
Of course Trump is the big story in politics. One commentator referred to Trump as Godzilla rising up out of the ocean and destroying the Republican power grid. He said he did not know if Mithra would come to the rescue. Trump was born under a Full Moon Lunar Eclipse. Uranus in Gemini is with his Sun and oppose his Sag Moon. Rich Jupiter trines his Sun and sextiles his Moon from Libra. Jupiter will be in Libra for a year starting in early Sept. He has Leo rising with Mars near the Ascendant. This is the energy and the brashness that we see in him. But here is the kicker. He has royal star Regulus very near the Ascendant. Any sheik would be happy to live in his dwelling. It seems that Trump wants to be our warrior king. The other name for Regulus is Cor Leonis, heart of the lion.
