The River Of Life
This forecast focuses upon the Dasas for the three charts under consideration for this U.S based publication -- The U.S., Biden and Trump. These combine to guide the present and future of the U.S. in a broad brush way. For clarity, no transits analysis (events) is included.
It's important to know Trump's great Jupiter Dasa is not guaranteed to always bring success. This is because Jupiter is aspected by malefic Saturn and rules the eighth house of calamity. Add to this over-optimism and inflated ego, and Trump falls off the cliff -- just as he did in the New Jersey casino debacle. That's why the Celestial Wheel has repeatedly stated that Trump's role is to destroy everything and then blow himself up.

Down The River Of Life
When you find something once, it's possible; twice it's likely; and three times, inevitable. That's what we have with the three charts all showing stressful Dasas.
An analogy is rafting down a treacherous section of down the river of life which has rapids, whirlpools and surging currents. Then make the typical day trip into one lasting a year!
All three of these dominant charts(U.S, Biden, Trump) run challenging Dasa planets until late September, 2024 -- just before the November 5, 2024 national elections.

A Woman Of Color President
The Celestial Wheel has long predicted Trump destroys everything and then blows himself up! While this certainly seems to be happening.
Given these caveats, The Celestial Wheel made an exploratory and provocative prediction for the presidential race in February 2023, which seems to be more likely as time goes by. Nikki Haley is gaining support daily, and if/when Biden falters, Kamala Harris is prepared to take the reins.

Just Because I'm Paranoid
These are difficult times. One may even say perilous. Not only do most of us struggle with worldly affairs, there's also a common consciousness of fear, that our lives, and indeed society, are at great risk. Better look both ways, twice!
Climate change hazards combine with risky societal and dangerous politics situations to replace confidence with paranoia, satisfaction with dissatisfaction, mental peace with emotional disturbances.
It's these drivers that stimulates The Celestial Wheel to focus again on the term mystical paranoia, which was coined over decade ago to describe the U.S. Vedic chart's lifelong karmas.

Transit Update
Recent Celestial Wheels have addressed the Dasas (planetary cycles) for the three key charts -- U.S., Biden and Trump.
It makes sense to consider Dasas separately from transits.
Venus is in a good position in Libra. However, mental
Mercury and Jupiter are retrograde until year's end.
So, be gentle and understanding with yourself and others to best navigate through to the New Year. Then, with both mental planets during forward at the year's change, the beginning of 2024 will be rewarding for pursuits after New Years.

Almost There
Current transit retrogrades for the mental planets -- Jupiter and Mercury -- cause problems. Lower mind Mercury and higher mind Jupiter, however, are both retrograde, which weakens communications, understanding and optimism.With Jupiter turning forward December 31 and Mercury on January 2, we're Almost There.
The three charts under consideration have naturally been hit, one more than the others. Note, a major driver (not previously mentioned) is that Mercury has been tightly conjunct Mars.
Trump is hit really hard with the Mercury/Mars combination. he's been been even more excessive this holiday season. Trump is repeating the same action and expecting a different result. He is digging himself into a deeper hole with the courts and the public daily.
It could be Trump falters, or even fails, during January.

Into The New Year
The planets don't care about the New Year. Yet, we naturally consider what the New Year brings to distinguish our past year's situation and consider what the future year looks like, or can be.
There's obviously major, inexplicable, even transformational change in this year's transition from one year to the next -- even though the worldly seas truly continue a long tempest. Primary culprits are continued global warming and the Trump cult.
Change is inevitable, and while our increasingly old population resists change as threatening, we have to accept it, embrace it and do what we can to lift up the future. We can't hide any more than a turtle, which can still be eating by a predator or crushed on a roadway.

Quick Prediction
Below are two recent predictions about the U.S. and Trump with corresponding news articles.
U.S.
Because Rahu and Mercury are both in the calamitous eight house, there are tremendous mental and physical stresses, upwellings of subconsciousness karmas and fears.
“You get the feeling in Iowa right now that we’re sleepwalking into a nightmare and there’s nothing we can do about it.”
Trump
Trump's Dasas (planetary cycles) alone result in his living by his emotions, losing rationality and diving into his own mystical paranoia. ...now that the former president is in the news on a daily basis due to his crushing legal problems, people are recalling the chaos that accompanies him — and they are balking at voting for him.

...Trumps falters, or even fails During January
The above January 14 Quick Prediction stated ...Trump falters, or even fails, during January. That's certainly been validated.
Transit Mars, continues to plague Trump through the spring. Expect civil judgments costing him big money, the four criminal indictments will begin tightening their nooses, and Trump's political influence shifts from today's faltering toward failure.

Sabbatical
Sabbatical: ...a rest or break from work. An extended period of time intentionally spent on something that's not your job. After over twenty years of nearly continuously publishing The Celestial Wheel, it's time to take a break.
I've left you with forecasting good through this year. Remember the November 7 River Of Life entry? That began with a forwarding-looking explanation of then current, and upcoming, 2024 Dasas (planetary cycles) and transits. Three key charts were considered -- U.S. Biden and Trump.
In the early 1950's U.S. Senator Joe McCarthy took advantage of cold war fears of communism. He put the country through hell by awakening eighth house paranoia and fear of foreigners. Hmmm... This sounds familiar, doesn't it? Just replace communists with illegal aliens, and voila, we're into the 2015 -- 2014 Trump cult nightmare.
Chief Counsel of the Army, Joseph Welch, confronted McCarthy in a Senate hearing with truly just one comment, Have you no sense of decency? Overnight, McCarthy's immense national popularity evaporated.
Nobody knows what will cause Trumpism to be similarly torpedoed. Just know that it must and will burst, and 2024 is certainly an entry into that sweepstakes.
