President Oprah Winfrey - social justice warrior

Oprah Winfrey stole the show at the 2018 Golden Globe Awards in her acceptance speech for the Cecil B DeMille Lifetime Achievement Award and what she said hit a resounding note  given the recent addition of the TimesUp movement to the list of causes a social warrior can espouse -and make no mistake -Oprah is essentially a social warrior intent on justice for all.

But what about President Winfrey?

Murmurings have likely been around awhile before the January 2018 ignition provided for the possibility of Oprah running for US President in November 2020.

The notion is way beyond whimsy or dreamland when you look at what Oprah has on board.

Time and place are the intersections of destiny. In some contexts it's simply called karma. And the future can be written. Can be viewed. Can be anticipated.

A black woman President would be a phenomenal shift in the landscape of American politics..and this is where things are at in the reckonings of astrologers who see the accumulation of energies building in the political sign Capricorn..with the associated planet Saturn now in the picture since Dec 22 2017, joining Pluto and soon to converge with Jupiter.

But it has been the Uranus in Aries era since 2011 that has worked alongside Pluto in Capricorn as a demolition team at work around the globe sweeping away old power bases old regimes old networks -installing Wild Cards, preferencing the unlikely the unexpected. 

Uranus has the credentials to do all this & at a very fundamental, far reaching level when in collusion with Pluto. So the process has been underway, often out of sight for several years before it's fruits have become increasingly in view.

Oprah Winfrey is one of the fruits. So too is Donald Trump, Macron, Trudeau, Ardern. It's a mixed bunch..the resolution is still awaited regarding the creation of a world which works for people not for money.

Looking at the birth chart for Oprah her Aquarian Sun-Venus is really tight with Saturn in Scorpio. All at effectively 9 degrees. This degree is very activated by anything at 23-24-25 degrees.

The disempowerment experiences delivered by Saturn in Scorpio drive her Aquarian passion for social justice.

Her chart has Pluto at 24, Mars at 23, lunar nodal axis and Chiron at 23 - these factors amplify and reinforce the fundamental essence of her personality as stated above. She understands pain, abuse, unfairness. She has had to transform, remake, rebuild herself to overcome the wounds of abuse. 

This is the mountain she had to climb in this lifetime and she has reached that inner goal while also manifesting incredible achievements on the world stage through her media company - which gives back and delivers highly on the scale of empathy and compassion.

All this and more is readable just from the chart graphic below -but it is the future that beckons now with the accumulation of energy mounting in Capricorn -and given a solid framework with the entry of Saturn over Oprah's ascendant [at the end of Sagittarius] and into 0 degrees Capricorn from December 22 2017.

The Capricorn zone is the first house in Oprah's personal chart wheel and this is the Self, the identity - so now a strengthening of Oprah's sense of mission, of responsibility becomes increasingly heightened. Not something to ignore with Pluto there..something that feels like a strong compulsion..an unavoidable commitment -and the highest commitment in a democracy is to lead the nation.

November 3 2020, voting day in the US sees a gathering of the significant energies in Capricorn:

Jupiter-Pluto-Saturn at 21-23-26 degrees - with 23 as an effective midpoint. All promise mastery, ultimate achievement -and in combination an incredible peak for anyone blessed with this activation by conjunction

Referencing Oprah's birth chart above to focus on the standout energies of the day - she has the following highly significant activations on Nov 3 2020 due to the Jupiter-Pluto-Saturn conjunction:

• Mars & lunar nodal axis at 23 are activated
• Pluto at 24 is activated
• 23/24 activate her Sun-Venus-Saturn all at 9
• Uranus at 8 Taurus activates her Sun-Venus-Saturn
• these factors alone constitute huge and hugely relevant successful achievement energy that is capable of taking the Presidency and initiating another great evolution in Oprah's life.

Inauguration day Jan 20 2021 has

• Sun just enters Aquarius [her birthday approaches]
• Mars-Jupiter-Uranus now all connect at 6-7 degrees -still in range of Oprah's Sun-Venus-Saturn
• Pluto at nearly 25 degrees still activating her Sun-Venus-Saturn
• A collection at 18-19 degrees activates Oprah's Jupiter and Mercury - [Mercury conjunct at 18, Neptune 19, Nodes at 19] A helluva lot of talking, inspirational speech-making, destiny !

The potential for this outcome is so high that it will be pure joy to see it unfold for the benefit of America, for the benefit of the world.

Updates as relevant 

By July 2018: Oprah still holding a No position - but possibly still with an "If God sends me a sign" option

The astrology is so strong that it will be important to watch for any shift in 2019 when transit Pluto at 23 Capricorn for several months is absolutely latched onto her 23 Capricorn life purpose indicator -the lunar north node. If it's still NO by Feb 2020 then Oprah must have another major plan up her sleeve.

Capricorn Research UK has added to this question of a political future for Oprah

Quake Swarm in New Zealand at November Supermoon

Significant seismic unrest has returned to New Zealand on November 14 2016, coinciding with the closest lunar transit of Earth in 2016 -the November 14 Supermoon [Full Moon in Scorpio-Taurus]

the energy of the building full moon - this was when the first quakes emerged at 2 minutes after midnight

• This lunar event at 22 degrees [exact sun-moon opposition in NZ on Nov 15] was under the strain of transiting Uranus at 21 Aries.
• Uranus is exact in its interaction with the sun on Nov 14. This planetary force is commonly associated with out of the blue events - earthquakes, accidents, sudden eruptions of energy - which can emerge in the form of natural forces in the environment or associated with forces expressed through biological species such as humans, animals.

[update Nov 21: apart from the multitude of cracks in the NZ landscape and structures due to the extended quake swarm, significant accident energy far from the quake zone has occurred in NZ in addition to significant quake energy. Tree crashing onto cars, child killed on play equipment, major impact accidents in Dubai and the derailment of a train near Kanpur India with large numbers of fatalities and injuries, on Nov 20 ]

•  Scorpio-Taurus energies involve not only the physical human body and the Earth's physical forms but also their transformation ....
• The potential for negative outcomes or at least major change is increased greatly when a planet capable of triggering the solar-lunar axis is mathematically in range of the positions of the sun and moon.
• The Moon - the commonest timing trigger has dominant influence at the top, aligned with the meridian axis
• multiple factors at 1-3-5-7 degrees synergise
• Neptune is exact on the lunar nodal axis at 9 degrees and 9 degrees [Virgo] was the preceding solar eclipse point in September. Water  = sea - was effected but Neptune's location away from the main chart axes is likely to have lessened the scope for a tsunami event
• highly destructive and large scale plutonic forces enter the picture with the combination of Pluto and Jupiter meeting at 14 degrees -a position which also triggers the full Cancer-Capricorn-Aries-Libra group of planets [Uranus-Jupiter-Pluto] plus the horizontal axis ranging from 7-21 degrees = 14 midpoint.
• Being in close proximity to a strong solar-lunar event and with Neptune so closely aligned with the lunar nodal axis, WATER must be considered as an ongoing threat potential in the ensuing days after the seismic swarm began to unfold [already water sources on land from dams to swimming pools have collapsed] but the known threat still relates to a landslide event along the steep coastal environment around Kaikoura generating a tsunami
• [update Nov 17 2016 - WATER threats have included flooding and torrential rain in various parts of NZ in recent days including the zones of seismic unrest but in respect of quake related issues, landslip debris has created river dams that are collecting water and at risk of sudden breaches]

See this extended animation of quake locations

and a small sample -some of Nov 15 quakes in the triangle from Hamner Springs to Kaikoura - mainly on land, a few on the seabed. The animation shows an effect like being scatter-bombed from beneath. [a perfect representation of the prevailing Pluto-Uranus-Jupiter synergy]

Occurring in North Canterbury just past midnight as the date November 14 ticked over, 2 earthquakes appear to have occurred so close in time in separate locations, tricking the computers into recording an amalgamated M7.5 trigger event, with over 50 aftershocks within the subsequent 11 hours.

The epicentre is sitting astride the major crustal plates of the Pacific-Australia region and is therefore at ongoing risk for some time

Canterbury became high risk after major seismic events of 2010-2012 in particular - with the people and city of Christchurch severely impacted. Now the energy has moved North as anticipated...

• The horizontal axis at 12 degrees is dominated by Neptune [water indicator]
• The Moon [timing trigger] at 12 degrees linked to Uranus [earthquake indicator] and Venus [another timing factor - in support of the Moon]
• Multiple factors hovering in a tight range provides a chain reaction of forces
• In addition the chain reaction is amplified by a locomotive effect of Sun-Mercury-Jupiter synergising energies

Pluto, boss of Scorpio, on the rampage

Every year for 3 weeks in November, 

Pluto is the boss

 

2015 sees Pluto with a Capricorn flavour -both Plutonians and Capricornians are control freaks at their worst -most comfortable when dominating or managing the behaviour of others, to their standards.

Pluto though is a very extreme version when taking domination to the maximum - torture, homicide, violation.

Ideally Pluto in Capricorn enables Scorpio types and Pluto responders to learn self management as well as the supportive guidance of others and a policy of benevolent support.

In societal terms Capricorn reflects the energy of governments and the banking system. 

Both of these institutions have undergone intense transformational experiences in places across the globe during the Pluto in Capricorn period since 2008, assisted by the role of Uranus in overturning systems, many societies have shifted towards austerity measures [whilst the elite enjoy ever more stratospheric benefits, perks and salaries]

We have only just witnessed the start of real austerity in this century. Much more radical change is on offer -and detailed extensively on this blog, accessible via keyword search.

Scorpio is the zodiac sign that carries Pluto's deep and often dark themes - power -its use and misuse, all matters concerning death and transformational events, the minefield surrounding sex and reproduction. 

update Nov 11-12 -Reported globally: NZ Prime Minister in widespread condemnation for using the issue of rape as a political tool. 

At the highest level, Scorpios and those influenced strongly by Pluto are capable of a major evolutionary journey in one lifetime, regularly developing their inner strength and extending their insights. 
Scorpios operating at their peak have immense healing ability, being capable of harnessing transformational energy for the benefit of others.
The metaphysical or energy realm existing beyond the physical is the level of perception that advanced Scorpios can tap into and utilise. In the simplest of terms, many have obvious psychic or pre-cognitive abilities.

Those Scorpios who linger in their attachment to power over others, manipulation, domination and cruelty are the ones to avoid. 

Having power over the lives of others is a responsibility few manage with humility so it comes as no surprise that when Scorpio energy is expressed extremely negatively lives are snuffed out, bodies are violated, people are tortured, enslaved, subjected to extreme mind control. Possessiveness and jealousy are classic Scorpio traits.

In November 2015
the Scorpio Sun-Moon conjunction [New Moon] connects with the position of Uranus, which brings sudden violent or sudden accident forces with likely fatal consequences to those closely resonating with that prevailing pattern [indicated in a personal birth chart].
This represents a riskier than usual period from November 8-14 as Pluto also brings to the fore thoughts of domination and control, along with thoughts of a wounding or damaging nature.
Pluto's close, but not exact angle to Uranus [Pluto in Capricorn-Uranus in Aries square at 4 degrees separation] evokes extreme destructive, violent and revolutionary forces
In total, not a pleasant combination.
Update Nov 14
Terror in Paris. Dozens slain in multiple coordinated attacks on Friday Nov 13 beginning around 9.45pm -CNN report
The atrocities committed have many of the hallmarks of a Plutonic rampage.
Also read extended post Slaughter in Paris November 2015

Venus and Mars activating the lunar nodes imply karmic male-female interactions which set the scene for some nasty outcomes. 
Be careful who you interact with in the stated period.
In addition collective events of a serious nature involving masses of people are within the range of possibilities

update November 21 2015
It comes as no surprise that a significant milestone has been reached in the West's response to Jihadism following the attacks in Parisian public places on November 13. French President Hollande promptly declared France to be at war with Islamic fundamentalists

Earth forecast for November 2014

NOVEMBER 2014
Imbalances in the natural environment
Extremes affecting biological systems
Noting the combining effects of Mars and Pluto in Capricorn adversely angled to Uranus in mid November producing much heat, volatility, pressure and structural strain affecting environmental, terrrestrial and biological systems.
Heat in some areas offset by opposite extreme temperature.
Weaknesses, fractures and undermining effects will in some cases be readily overt, but in others, silent and secretive -so in the context of seismic shifts may become evident with the application of further terrestrial strain with the waxing New Moon of November, from the 19th: the Mars-Pluto combination is adversely angled to the Sun-Moon. 
[update Nov 17 M6.5 earthquake offshore New Zealand]
The added complication is Mars-Pluto at 90 degrees offset to the lunar nodes which is likely to be profound in effects as a result of the contacts made in the period from Nov 19-Nov till the end of the month.
The Mars-Pluto-Nodes situation has Cardinal group energy and therefore is defined by the issue of BALANCE /IMBALANCE.
This issue underlies extreme weather events and is also very relevant in human personal, interpersonal and collective affairs.
Personal relationship dynamics, use/abuse of power in all contexts; political extremism, ruthless ambition

Mars also adversely contacts Neptune which indicates water-related effects -dissolving, flooding, soaking and swelling structures.

Mars-Neptune elevates trickery, deceit, fraud, illusion, magic, dirty tricks

All combined, the second half of November 2014 has much intensity in human affairs as well as the environmental issues noted. 

The influences of Scorpio and Pluto during November are accentuated by Saturn also in Scorpio, increasing the depth of challenges related to literal death, loss and transformational experiences

Effects can be initiated under a particular energetic influence and remain silent or latent until a secondary influence triggers the manifestation - so dates of exact planetary interactions do not automatically show the event described. It depends what prior building conditions were in effect.

see the full 2014 report here

NOVEMBER 2013 ASTRO FORECAST

The intensity of this phase will involve many experiencing losses on one or more levels

 of materiality

 - be that people, things, resources, finances.

This is a process of rebalancing or reconsidering values and attachments
 with alternate notions arising about
 the underlying essence of things, people & existence in general

Everyday Scorpionic intensity is heightened further in November 2013 :

November 3 Scorpionic Total Solar Eclipse
line-up of Mercury-Nodes-Sun-Moon-Saturn
but also the Mercury-Nodes-Sun-Saturn group retriggered in Scorpio on Nov 6
and the Scorpio-Taurus Full Moon [Nov 17-18] activating Pluto-Uranus effects

The lunar nodes
are significant destiny-karma indicators so what happens in this time 
frame is profoundly meaningful both for individual experiences and 
on a collective or mass destiny level. 

SCORPIO and TAURUS essentially identify the non-physical versus physical
 energy polarity so both are involved in standout events of Nov 2013
 & beyond into 2014

TAURUS
physical concerns are about security & survival - food, shelter, 
money being prominent in contemporary terms. Tactile, earthy, sensory
things are the territory of this sign.
Objects and possessions & the attachment to same.

SCORPIO
is the metaphysical = what lies beyond the physical 
-the territory many associate with death or an afterlife. 

It is also the contrast to the physical-sensory
-tactile existence so loved -and needed by Taurus.

SCORPIO
connects to the territory of pure energy,where objects cease to exist
 -the realm that pervades our entire existence from the local
 to the universality of deep space. 
The unseen forces that are comprised of vibrating wave patterns.

The human mind  [and likely that of other sentient life] -
when tuned into the Scorpionic wavelength - has the capacity
to transcend and transform material reality
by accessing the energy fields we are embedded in.

The contemporary master [magician] Dynamo -  Steven Frayne
demonstrates this ability in a manner most commonly seen in Eastern
spiritual masters, shamanic practitioners and their equivalents
in diverse cultural communities across the continents of the world.

November 2013
 - and sustained during the eclipse phase till late April 2014

is likely to bring to the fore issues contrasting the Scorpio-Taurus 
differences.

The opportunity is given to transcend or at least reduce attachment
to Taurean materiality, physicality,sensuality on account of
its transient and illusory nature.

To understand this issue in depth, a study of Buddhist philosophy
is informative - or the concepts uncovered through quantum mechanics
regarding the hidden nature of reality.

SCORPIO

confronts us with endings, often actual physical deaths or decay in our personal or
collective networks - as a reminder of the limited, transient existence of all
material forms.

This leads many to consider the energetic trace left by a person & 

their life of achievements, relationships and actions both positive
and negative.

The energy exchange that occurs in sexual activity

& the apparent 'loss of self' and 'little death' experiences

mean that sexual issues are Scorpio's concern

Scorpio's
capacity to access powerful unseen forces and to manipulate or 
transform energy means that power use and abuse in general
arise in discussion under Scorpio periods of influence

Issues arising re collectively held or any shared resources such as trusts 
safeguarding family property are a Scorpio arrangement versus the 
personal property, possessions or cash which is a Taurus matter 

For those wishing to operate more on an energy level as opposed to the 
base level of materiality this is an excellent period for developing 
mastery of metaphysical skills - the practices of accessing and utilising your 
personal energy potential in order to operate effectively and flowingly 
- and claim your place in the world - instead of facing perpetual defeat 
& discouragement - the hallmarks of blocked personal energy.

ENERGY - a metaphysical description

Extreme Weather from the Galactic Centre

The GC -galactic centre -the rotational centre of the Milky Way galaxy - at 27 Sagittarius is an energy point of unimaginable potency
Magnetic structures spreading across vast distances have been observed emanating from the core of our galaxy

Significant events on earth expressing the power of natural forces can be seen to cluster in the time frame of a GC activation.

This includes major movements or quantities of fire, earth, air and water and can include floods, landslides, earthquakes, volcanic activity, tornadoes, typhoons, hurricanes, torrential rain, tsunami, wildfires, explosive events - as well as including events of this type perpetuated by human activity [ Hiroshima-Nagasaki 1944].
The Double Helix nebula near the galactic centre is mirrored in the shape of double helix DNA -as found in almost all living organisms -human, animal and plant species, even viruses.

The discovery of intense magnetic forces at the galactic centre gives rise to the notion that magnetic torsion twisted the original pair of connected spirals into this shape. So now we have a magnetic resonance component to the idea that what happens at the core of our galaxy reaches us on Earth not only through atmospheric, environmental outcomes but directly through our DNA.

Typhoon Haiyan has slammed Philippines -an example of GC generated extreme forces
 update Nov 8 2013

Observations [above] made October 21 2013 re the roles of Saturn in October [12 Scorpio] & the November Scorpio eclipse [11 Scorpio] in activating by semisquare the Galactic Centre position of 27 SAG

• The June and December solstice points at zero Cancer and zero Capricorn have been considered for millennia to be potent activation points of cosmic energies.

• above are further potent activators of Galactic Centre energies, stepped down into the environment of Earth, with 27 SAG as the actual position of the galactic centre and all points at 90 and 180 degrees of that being significant, as well as all positions midway = 12 degrees in all 4 fixed energy signs [Scorpio, Taurus, Leo, Aquarius] Any one occupied position has an equal capacity to trigger any or all others

The GC gets activated annually by the Sun around December 19
In 2013 only Mercury  [Jan 17] and Venus [November 2] make the same exact conjunction to 27 SAG. But these alone do not give rise to major activations.
My energy analysis method always includes the GC activations by the remaining signs of the mutable quartet - PISCES VIRGO GEMINI as well as the semi & sesqui squares = 12 degree position of any of the fixed signs SCORPIO TAURUS  LEO AQUARIUS.

When the 27 MUTABLE or 12 FIXED sign positions feature in a New, Full Moon or Eclipse the likelihood of extreme forces arising to a significant extent in diverse earth locations is worth considering

Milky Way Galactic Centre

It so happens from late 2013 into 2014 there is a run on these relevant factors with strong activations of the GC energy delivered by:


September full moon 27 PISCES
October lunar eclipse SATURN at 12 SCORPIO
November solar eclipse at 11 SCORPIO being midpoint of MERC-NODES-SAT
December full moon at 25 GEMINI
January new moon 11 AQUARIUS
March full moon 26 VIRGO

Exact positions at 27 or 12 are strongest but + or - 2 degrees is well within range of effect - giving a range 25-29 Mutable and 10-14 Fixed to consider.

Full and New Moons begin to be effective days before exactitude and until the following new or full state.

Eclipses belong to a six-monthly cycle so the effects can spread ahead that far - as well as being pre-triggered -one of the qualities of space-time that defies the limited linear logic of manufactured earth-time.

The period September 2013 - May 2014
is likely to be notable for many more extreme weather events and major environmental events which reveal the potency of the forces of nature.

The role of the paired transformers Pluto & Uranus locked at a 90 degree angle is undeniable in accentuating or aggravating the situation.

These two energies are very representative of Galactic Centre forces so their current activation provides a double-whammy effect whenever our solar system is zapped by a blast from the GC 

A torus of super-heated dust surrounding the galactic centre black Hole -artist's conception

Updates
Prior historical example:
CYCLONE Yasi formed January 26 2011.
Dissipated Feb 3 2011
GC activation came via URANUS  in conjunction with JUPITER  =  both at 27 Pisces on January 4 2011. The process was set in motion weeks before the cyclone formed.
[ 27 Pisces is at exact 90 degrees to the GC & therefore a very strong trigger - made stronger by the combined mega force of Jupiter blended with Uranus the force of change.]

The etymology of the word typhoon is of interest in terms of the most likely link back to Greek mythology
TYPHOEUS aka TYPHON  was a monstrous immortal storm-giant...so huge his head was said to brush the stars..

He appeared man-shaped down to the thighs, with two coiled vipers in place of legs. Attached to his hands in place of fingers were a hundred serpent heads, fifty per hand. He was winged, with dirty matted hair and beard, pointed ears, and eyes flashing fire. According to some he had two hundred hands each with fifty serpents for fingers and a hundred heads, one in human form with the rest being heads of bulls, boars, serpents, lions and leopards. As a volcano-daimon, Typhoeus hurled red-hot rocks at the sky and storms of fire

 boiled from his mouth.

December 2013
Around Dec 8
Heavy snowfall across Northern Hemisphere & in unusual places -Egypt, Hawaii, Middle East -all due to a jet stream snaking much further southwards in a meridional pattern rather than zonal

The Full Moon at 25 SAG-GEM was within range of the GC & thus geoeffective in the time frame of a lunar month into January
 The Sun reached the Galactic Centre point late on Dec 18 UT at 27 SAG and Mercury too on Dec 22 - allowing for a conjoined activation of the GC forces in the period around Dec 20-22 
The important seasonal markers at zero Cardinal [Capricorn-Cancer, Aries-Libra] are also likely to be caught up in the timing of GC activations since 27 SAG is just 3 degrees from 0 Capricorn and the whole spectrum is activated at all other seasonal markers in March, June, September as well as in December
December 2013 is particularly worth observing for the added complexity of the Sun-Pluto-Mercury-Mars-Uranus synergistic activation from even as early as Dec 29 then strengthening in days to New Years Eve, January 1 & 2 2014

From Weather Action :

Dec 21

Piers Corbyn from Weather Action says the North Atlantic jet stream reached a record 275 mph on Dec 22 2013 -consistent with the long range prediction of wild jet stream events in the shift to a Mini Ice Age circulation pattern.
Corbyn's methodology is centred around solar activity which impacts Earth. 
His analysis also targets the end of Dec 2013 & into January 2014:
"Newly erupting active sunspot regions are coming round to be Earth-facing (below) when we predicted and will drive dangerous weather conditions around end Dec and start Jan in USA, Brit+Ire, Europe and the whole world."
"This 'Mini-Ice-Age increase in wild and extreme events will continue for the next 20 years"

2017 updates
MARCH
With the Galactic Center 27 SAG being activated by exact alignment from transiting Saturn at 27 Sagittarius, beginning effectiveness from start of March 2017 intense outcomes anticipated soon began to be evident. 

One planet alone is usually not significant enough to bring the worst extremes. [severe quakes, colossal tsunamis]

In March 2017 Saturn at 27 degrees links with any other activating factors at 27 and 12 degrees. 
The Sun and Neptune match these positions during March: Neptune [water indicator] for most of the month and the Sun at/in range of 12 degrees from March 2-4. 
From March 6 [UT] Mars at 27 Aries energises Saturn at 27 Sagittarius - extending over several days

The probabilities for heavy rain with flooding and destructive conditions creating losses and obstructions will also be very high in this time frame.
Just as March began [3rd] an indicator of extremes was in place -the exact opposition of Jupiter and Uranus. This opposition has an effective time frame of just over 2 weeks [until at least March 19] in which to keep generating more systems. This energy combination generates unbalanced energies and would have contributed significantly to extreme atmospheric conditions and the creation of disturbed, destructive weather systems. 
The Sun reaching 21-23 degees in the March 11-March 13 period synergises with this potent energy.
Then importantly 17-20th March when firstly the Sun is at 27 degrees, soon joined by the Moon on the 20th of March.

Regions of New Zealand's North Island beginning 7 March experienced extreme flooding followed by forceful winds -with conditions enduring several days after a brief lull between systems.

Other global locations showed related effects in this time period -as reported March 9 - India, Pakistan, Atlanta US...

March 14 saw the start of extreme rain, flooding and mudslides in Peru. This follows an intense period of extreme weather since early in 2017

By 28 March 2017 Queensland Australia was subject to Cyclone Debbie. The initial effects were followed by extreme widespread flooding affecting an even larger landscape than initially affected -even by April 2 more flooding was anticipated

Saturn on GC 2017
With Saturn's transiting position in Sagittarius remaining within the 27-28 degree range throughout April and still within the 26-27 degree range for most of May 2017 it is anticipated that activation of Galactic Centre [GC] energies is creating exactly the turbulent forces that generate extreme weather. The higher potential for this looks to be increased in April 2017 with Neptune [the water indicator] also highly activated [Uranus+Sun transits through Aries]
The 3rd factor [and there is always more than one] is that imbalance underlies the generation of these extreme forces. Energy related to extreme unbalanced forces was generated at the end of March [Pluto+Jupiter] and the triggers spawned at that time were given the force to unfold in days ahead...ready to merge increasingly from April 4 with Saturn barely moving from its transiting position, intensifying through the first week of April to lead into the developing Saturn-Venus energy at 28 Sagittarius and the Sun-Jupiter-Pluto energies combining from April 7.
Extreme forces remain locked in for a lengthy period, with many different manifestations - weather or environmentally related as well as human induced - with a likely time frame from April 7-19 2017
So this is a big package of extreme and destructive forces which will be manifested in many global locations

Advancing Jupiter and retrograding Uranus led to the two due to meet in exact opposition at 27 degrees on September 28 -just a week after the 27 degree New Moon -  Hurricane Maria reached Cat 5 close to New Moon

Historical Example 1: the North Sea Storm and Flood of January 31 1953
When I discover the date of an historic extreme weather event it is totally appropriate to see how closely the energy of that event matches up with the original theory proposed by the author of this blog.

• A lunar eclipse on 29 January was at 10 degrees - also activating the 25th degree
• Venus and Mars conjoined at 26 degrees
• Saturn and Jupiter conjoined at 25.5 degrees
• Jupiter at 12 degrees also activated 27 degrees
• lunar nodes at 12 degrees also activated 27 degrees

As often found an eclipse is involved here and any eclipse in the range [10-14 degrees] activates the most sensitive Galactic Centre degree range [25-29 degrees.
Therefore by reference to a planetary ephemeris such extreme events are predictable in advance and researchable back in history.
This example happens to be a very good fit for the theory. Others require more gymnastics but the order of significance is mathematics first, followed by planet/luminary or energy. Of least significance is zodiac signs though these can be seen to reinforce the picture.
Historical Example 2

Over 200 years prior a very similar storm hit the same region:
The storm and massive flood across northern Europe Dec 24-25 1717 featured wind and waves with devastating ferocity.

• Pluto and Neptune joined forces at 14 degrees which activated 29 degrees
• the lunar nodes were at 29 degrees
• Saturn was at 29 degrees
• Moon reached 29 degrees on Dec 24

This event was not associated with an eclipse nor any lunation -it was occurring midway between full and new moon - with moon at 90 degrees to the Sun late on the 24th -

• Sun and Moon at 3 degrees activated 18 degrees -being the trigger for the Chiron-Uranus synergy
• Jupiter at 2 degrees activate 17 degrees

Effectively there were two energy entanglements which accounted for virtually everything in play.
With Moon being the fast mover and common trigger it had a direct role to play in activating both sets of energy

• Sun-Moon-Chiron-Uranus-Jupiter
• Pluto-Neptune-Nodes-Saturn-Moon

Though possibly only minimally relevant, given the colossal amount of energy firing by late on Xmas Eve, Mercury -past 29 degrees, Venus at 17 and Mars at 11 all match up with the energy sets outlined.

Since these two events were referenced in the one article published Dec 28 2017 - due to the similarities in place and scale one planetary factor often regarded as the one that emphasises karma was virtually in the same position despite the 200+ years separation - Saturn was at 29 degrees in Libra at Christmas 1717 and was at 27 Libra on January 31 1953.

For what its worth:

 Libra indicates imbalances needing to be corrected
