The Celestial Wheel has long predicted that Trump would be knocked down in August and thrown out in October. He was indeed knocked down this past August. The September 4 entry Interpretation -- August's Karmic Onslaught documented that result.
These two today articles explain that Trump is fighting back fruitlessly and has finally brought upon himself the ire of his fellow Republicans.
Trump goes rogue, even by his standards
| There was a sense, in his encounters with the media and his tweets, that Trump was running free, relishing the chance to make everyone dance to his tune, signaling that he would run his presidency exactly as he likes. His rebellious mood comes at a time when Trump's critics and even members of his own team are trying to rein him in. |
Bob Corker just confirmed it: Republicans know Trump is unfit
...The only reasonable way to read all these comments is as a declaration that Trump is indeed unfit — and that most Republicans know it. After all, Corker had previously said that Trump’s inner circle is helping to “separate our country from chaos.” Now he has added that Trump needs to be restrained by his inner circle from devolving into conduct that could end up unleashing untold global destruction — and that most Republicans know it.
Corker is getting a lot of press plaudits for his unvarnished appraisal. But as James Fallows writes, there is a good deal that Corker can actually do right now if he wants to mitigate the threat that he himself says Trump poses. As chairman of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee, he has a range of powers that could help constrain Trump, including the power to hold public hearings to draw public attention to the ways in which Trump’s temperament threatens untold damage. At a minimum, Corker can be asked whether he intends to do these things, and if not, why not.
But whatever Corker says and does now, his new comments should precipitate a fundamental change in the way the press treats the ongoing GOP enabling of Trump. Corker has forced out into the open the fact that Republicans recognize the sheer abnormality and danger to the country of the situation we’re in, which opens the door for much tougher media questioning of them about their awareness of — and acquiescence to — this state of affairs. |
The September 17 entry Venus Approaches The Eclipse Sinkhole explained,
Remember that not only is Trump's fighting Mars eclipsed, and his body too, but also Saturn sits on his emotional public Moon. This weakens the mind and restricts his ability influence the public. Of course, there's the often repeated health hazard prediction too from Mars and the Moon -- head and heart. Weakened in August and now this month, he's knocked down and by the end of October may very well be thrown out.
|
Notice in the Heavy Summer/Fall Transits Timeline that Saturn shifts into Sagittarius October 26. Old and slow Saturn withholds his greatest harms until the very end of his 2 1/2 year transit through a sign. Thereby, these last 2 1/2 weeks of Saturn's transit through evil Scorpio will unleash its most fierce destructions and losses upon Trump. As also the planet of reality which cannot be resisted, Saturn is wreaking now its retribution against a man who violated Saturn's dictates for humility and service to humanity -- for he has served only himself. While he may not be thrown out by October 26, he'll certainly be hobbled and on his way back to Trump Tower.

Long Reach Of The Mars/Saturn Stress
The September 29 entry Another Venus/Mars Dirty Dance included this transit chart for that day to illustrate the Mars/Venus affliction and explain the duration, Venus will exactly conjoin Mars October 5 at 25 degrees Leo. But because they are moving in the same direction, they will hang together until October 9, when Venus escapes into Virgo. ...the combination is troublesome -- quick gains often reversed just as fast. Notably, Venus's significations for vehicles and watery things are disrupted by Mars' stormy nature. Vehicle accidents occur, as well as flooding storms.
Transits September 29. 2017
That entry also explained that malefics Mars and Saturn aspect (glance upon) each other,
See the red arrow? That's Mars aspecting Saturn. During this time, Mars will be moving towards an exact aspect (glance) to Saturn in tumultuous (watery) Scorpio. See the blue arrow? That's Saturn aspecting Mars.
This is a difficult combination -- the two worst malefics with opposing energies pushing at each other. Slow Saturn is irritated by fast Mars' prodding. And Mars is impatient for Saturn slowing him down. Great destructions result. |
Hurricane activity was predicted -- just when everyone though the hurricane season was over -- Saturn also aspecting Mars and the Mars/Venus dirty dance -- both contributing planetary karma to hurricane development. Hurricane Nate hit Louisiana October 7.
Of course the Las Vegas mass murder occurred during this interval -- October 1. This was one guy who was pushed over the edge by these tough transits, but the crime naturally reverberated across the country and over the globe.
While other harms also resulted, the major disaster in the U.S. is the California wildfires. The September 15 entry
Hurricanes -- Foreseen And Unforeseen noted, Certainly widespread forest fires in the U.S. West fit this year's fiery sign (Leo) eclipse location. And the above chart shows fiery Mars still in fiery Leo. These huge blazes began this past Sunday, October 8. This transit chart for today shows Mars having moved out of fiery Leo, and thereby no longer aspected by Saturn. Hopefully the fires will begin to ease off -- though it may take a couple of days, for the Moon (home) is with windy Rahu.
Transits October 13. 2017
Of course Trump has been also caught up in the Saturn/Mars energy, as explained in the (above) October 9 entry Saturn's Retribution. Recall his fighting Mars was hit hard in the August 21 solar eclipse -- defanging him. He still yells, but the words have no bite. Also, Saturn on his Moon continues to weaken the mind and block his ability to influence the public. That influence continues until October 26, when Saturn will finally leave Scorpio and go into Sagittarius.
Beyond this, however, note in the above October 13 chart that Saturn is currently at 28:58 Scorpio, almost directly opposite King Trump's powerful Sun at 29:49. Saturn's aspect to the Sun is another blanket on his power. Finding him weakened, enemies emerge.
Beyond the frustration Trump feels for not getting his way, notice in the above October 13 chart that Mars, Venus and the Sun are in Virgo. (Mercury leaves Virgo later today.) Virgo is the sign of fighting and discord, and for Trump's chart, his second house of speech and writing. This three-planet grouping in the second house stimulates him to speak and tweet even more in fruitless attempts to counter punch -- which have become even more nasty and extend now to major policy areas, like Iran and health care. These efforts will go nowhere and actually backfire.

Down To The Wire
The (above) October 9 entry Saturn's Retribution explained that Saturn, the great malefic, was nearing the end of its reign of terror in cataclysmic Scorpio,
| Old and slow Saturn withholds his greatest harms until the very end of his 2 1/2 year transit through a sign. Thereby, these last 2 1/2 weeks of Saturn's transit through evil Scorpio will unleash its most fierce destructions and losses upon Trump. As also the planet of reality which cannot be resisted, Saturn is wreaking now its retribution against a man who violated Saturn's dictates for humility and service to humanity -- for he has served only himself. While he may not be thrown out by October 26, he'll certainly be hobbled and on his way back to Trump Tower. |
We're down to the wire on this, as Saturn will leave Scorpio in the early dawn hours Thursday, October 26. So, counting today, there are 5 more sitting-on-the-edge-of-your-seat days.
If you think about it, Saturn's last several weeks in Scorpio have brought all kinds of harms in the U.S. -- four hurricanes making landfall (Harvey, Irma, Maria, and Nate), horrific wildfires in the West, the Las Vegas mass murder and lots of other minor, but still deadly, ills.
Yes, the below Heavy Summer/fall Transits Timeline forewarned, with the major karma being the August 22 solar eclipse.
But the U.S. chart wasn't hit especially hard by these transits. Trump's chart, however, was, for the solar eclipse hit his fighting Mars and Ascendant point (self) just as hard are Hurricane Maria nailed Puerto Rico. Plus, transit Saturn has been sitting on his perceptional Moon, which is the major planet in Vedic Astrology.
Yet, it seems that while Trump has traveled a rocky road, he's been largely spared much harm.
In contrast with the U.S., which has seen terrible destructions but wasn't hit hard by theses transits, this doesn't make sense.
Of course, we don't know what's in Trump's mind, how weakened he truly is and what losses have been hidden from the public. Yet, even if these harms are unseen, they wouldn't fully explain the negative planetary karma he's been experiencing.
Beyond this, Trump's Dasas (planetary cycles) have taken a hard turn to the worse since October 18, when mystical Ketu (the tail-of-the-dragon eclipse point) replaced mental Mercury as his third level Dasa planet. Ketu is on his Moon in his chart, making him emotionally frail, irrational, fearful, susceptible to all kinds of imaginings and living by his emotions.
Finally, the Moon transits through its fallen (weak) sign of Scorpio this week -- beginning late this evening (Saturday) and ending at dawn on the 24th, Tuesday.
The first brings instability and problems with the public and career, and the second amplifies those harms.
So again, hold onto your hat.

The Celestial Wheel has long predicted that Trump would be thrown out by the time Saturn leaves Scorpio October 26.
The two most recent entries addressed this issue.
The (above) October 13 entry Long Reach Of The Mars/Saturn Stress stated,
| Finding him weakened, enemies emerge. ... stimulates him to speak and tweet even more in fruitless attempts to counter punch -- which have become even more nasty and extend now to major policy areas, like Iran and health care. These efforts will go nowhere and actually backfire. |
The (above) October 21 entry Down To The Wire stated,
Old and slow Saturn withholds his greatest harms until the very end of his 2 1/2 year transit through a sign. Thereby, these last 2 1/2 weeks of Saturn's transit through evil Scorpio will unleash its most fierce destructions and losses upon Trump. As also the planet of reality which cannot be resisted, Saturn is wreaking now its retribution against a man who violated Saturn's dictates for humility and service to humanity -- for he has served only himself.

...Of course, we don't know what's in Trump's mind, how weakened he truly is and what losses have been hidden from the public. Yet, even if these harms are unseen, they wouldn't fully explain the negative planetary karma he's been experiencing. |
Trump obviously hasn't yet vacated the White House, but the prediction was partially validated by revolts within his own party. These are unprecedented in American history. During Saturn's last week in Scorpio Senators McCain, Flake and Corker denounced him, as have past Presidents Bush and Obama. He's Down But Not Out -- Yet.
Here are two recent New York Times articles addressing the issue, along with my comments,
Another Republican Call to Arms, but Who Will Answer?
My comment
Tax Cuts Are the Glue Holding a Fractured Republican Party Together
My comment
Let's see what happens as Congress's tax reform effort, which is truly a tax cut for the rich, plays out these next few weeks. There is also the emerging catastrophe in Puerto Rico and Mueller's investigation -- either of which can crater the administration. And remember, the stress Trump continues to be under harms not just his emotional health, but physical well being as well. |

A Final Saturn Retribution?
The October 21 entry Down To The Wire stated, Old and slow Saturn withholds his greatest harms until the very end of his 2 1/2 year transit through a sign. ... Saturn will leave Scorpio in the early dawn hours Thursday, October 26.
Waiting a day, I composed the October 27 Friday entry Down But Not Out -- Yet reiterating partial results for the prediction Trump would be thrown out by October 26, when Saturn leaves Scorpio.
That entry offered this premonition, There are also the emerging catastrophe in Puerto Rico and Mueller's investigation -- either of which can crater the administration.
Later on Friday came the big news, First on CNN: First charges filed in Mueller investigation, A federal grand jury in Washington on Friday approved the first charges in the investigation led by special counsel Robert Mueller.
The issue is when the grand jury deliberated and then decided on Mueller's request for these charges? It must be true that Mueller made this request at least a few days ago and that the grand jury deliberated during Saturn's final days in Scorpio. It is unknown at this time whether the grand jury decided before Saturn left Scorpio in the early morning of October 26.
Regardless, the timing here is so clear on the deliberations, and razor thin on the decision, that it must be A Final Saturn Retribution. The reason this is important is that it gives weight to the seriousness of this issue upon Trump, who has always claimed the Russian investigation an Democratic excuse for losing the election and fake news by the media reporting on it.
Let's see if Trump finally gets caught with his pants down. |
