Three events define the first half of this decade. Of course there were many other defining events, but these three rate special notice for several reasons, the first of which is that when the second event started the first almost disappeared from public consciousness. When the third event started the second almost disappeared from public consciousness. This exclusiveness is one thing that set these events apart. These are also the three events that will shape the way the second half of this decade plays out, with the ramification, realizations, and renouncements shaping the way the decade finally ends.

Neptune at Aries Point

As Neptune approaches the Aries Point we should pay special attention to the use and misuse of propaganda, something that is truly ruled by Neptune. Neptune got within four minutes of the Aries Point in July 2024 (1) only to turn retrograde as if the thought of a Fire Sign was too much to bear; then at the end of March 2025, a week after the Vernal Equinox, Neptune truly enters Aries (2) and then retrogrades and skates along the Aries Point from Fall of 2025 (3) through Winter of 2026 (4) before finally ensconcing into Aries in February of 2026.

There were conventional and dissident views on all three events, but the power behind the crushing of the dissident point of view was so strong in all three cases that you know there was much force behind the conventional view. It was not just “Oh so you disagree with me, that’s life” but rather if you disagree with the conventional viewpoint you are an apostate, a sinner, you stand against everything holy. The use of religious metaphors is not an accident. One is reminded of the Inquisition. The name calling by those holding the conventional view of those holding a dissident view was extreme as examples later will show.

I also want to look at these three moments in terms of the left-right paradigm. As I’ve expressed before I think this dichotomy is outdated but it is still very much used. And though those terms are used in ways that are way beyond the limits of what the words mean I will still use them without double quotes around the words to save typing, but you can imagine that double quotes are present.

Since this period includes what I call the Sixth Crisis we need to mention the Fifth Crisis which was World War II. One of the big items of the Fifth Crisis was the Nazis which we will see reflections of in this Sixth Crisis. People misunderstand what Nazis are. Perhaps because of much propaganda many believe that the Nazis were only killers of Jews. This is wrong, the Nazis were against the untermenschen — under people or subhumans — not only Jewish people but Romany, disabled, homosexuals, you name it, anybody not Aryan or ubermenschen. And so under people can be the common people, Russians, or Palestinians, those who don’t meet certain “standards”.

I’ll outline the conventional view first but, since it is conventional, I will not devote that much space to it. If you don’t know the conventional view by heart you likely were asleep for the last five years. More space will be used to discuss the dissident view but, since it is dissident, there are many variations possible. I’ll just try to limn out the basic ideas.

The first big crisis of this third decade of the Twenty-First Century was Covid-19 and the ensuing vaccine. The people who saw through this for the most part were on the right, which gave those on the left ample cause to jeer. And of course those on the left who also saw through the propaganda were now considered to be on the right.

Covid-19 Declared a Pandemic

Covid-19 was an infection that was the greatest pandemic to strike the world since the Spanish Flu of 1918. Measures such as lockdowns, masks, and avoiding large groups (“social distancing”) were necessary and enforced to keep the people safe. Nonetheless there was a huge amount of dying over the years 2020 and beyond. This crisis was finally abated by the introduction of a vaccine that was both safe and effective. These vaccines were developed under “Operation Warp Speed” (OWS) in record time, using a novel technology that had never been used in the public before. Many were forced with a government mandate to get what was called “the jab” because nobody is safe unless everybody complies . There were various technologies used to create these vaccines and the most popular in Western countries was messenger RNA — mRNA. This vaccine was introduced shortly after the previous president — who oversaw OWS — left office.

The alternate view had it that an artificially-created virus was developed in Wuhan China with American funding which spread around the world. It caused a mild respiratory distress, much like the Asian Flu of 1958-59 or the Hong Kong flu of 1968-69 which is considered one of the deadliest pandemics in history (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hong_Kong_flu). Many have seen the movie of people practicing social distancing on a farm in upstate New York in the summer of 1969 while watching live music during the Hong Kong flu epidemic. This disease would have stricken few and they could have been cured by early treatment using the same substances that were found effective with an earlier corona viruses. Also adequate vitamin D in a body would have reduced infection. But none of those treatments were owned by large companies so little profit could be realized by using them. Instead early treatment was discouraged and hospital patients were treated with ventilators and an [official] drug whose nickname was “run death is near”. The death toll was elevated by bogus PCR tests and redefinition of other diseases, such as flu and cancer and even automobile accidents, as a death from Covid-19. Antibiotics were not used even though many had pneumonia, which was redefined as Covid-19 when they died. The stress engendered by lockdowns, social distancing, and other measure was so great that many succumbed to the affects of the intense stress. Early treatments were prevented so that a vaccine using a new technology could be rushed into service without the usual 10 years of testing. `

Vaccine Mandate Declared

The amount of death world-wide due to the vaccines number in the millions, with many more disabled and even more injured. Some of the diseases caused are various heart aliments and clots and an aggressive type of cancer called turbo-cancer. Most people, especially on the left, are not willing to look at the real misinformation and they will be horribly crushed when the truth comes out. All the news media have been active in covering up the excessive death and injury even though most insurance companies are aware of them. As they say, the cover up is worse than the crime. And when the cover-up unravels things will be different!

Many compared the treatment of people with experimental drugs as similar to what got a lot of Nazi doctors hanged and led to the creation of the Nuremberg Code that prohibits lack of informed consent in medical procedures. Many are calling for a Nuremberg 2.0 to take a look at the massive lack of informed consent. One outspoken dissident with real world experience is Vera Sharav, a holocaust survivor who has been vehement in her condemnation of the massive medical experiment.

There were strong terms used to condemn those who took a dissident view, such as “anti-vaxxer” or “right-wing conspiracy theorist”. Many important people appeared on the media to condemn those who held such divergent views. The left, which traditionally supported bodily autonomy (“My body my choice”) and informed consent were totally against those things in this case. The left is also aware of “regulatory capture” wherein large corporations capture the government agencies which supposedly regulate those same corporations, rending any restriction on their activities minor. But now it was big tobacco, bad; big oil, bad; but big pharma, so good we will trust it with out life (literally). Many on the left are concerned with the chemicals they take in, so pesticide-free organic food and GMO free food is important, but using the much more rapid means of ingestion which was injection is not at all suspicious. On the other hand, the right supports the behavior of corporations, thinking that corporations are truly part of the American Way. Big business is swell, they think. And no “My body, my choice’. But here they reversed themselves. One strange outcome of the Covid-19 debacle was the switching positions of the right and the left. I guess, as Emerson said, consistency is the hobgoblin of little minds.

The second event of note was the Russian invasion of Ukraine, a bordering country, on February 24, 2022. The conventional stance on this issue is that the brutal leader of Russia, Vladimir Putin, wants to recreate the old Soviet Union and eventually conqueror Europe. Russia’s unprovoked invasion of neighboring Ukraine was just the first step in his big plans. If we — the United States and Europe — don’t stop him in Ukraine the West will have to stop Russia in Europe or America.

The dissent view — which takes note of history — points out contributing factors. In 1990 the United States told the leader of the Soviet Union that if East and West Germany could reunite and join NATO then NATO would not expand “one inch eastward”. Since then NATO has doubled in size with a number of new countries, most of which were either part of the Soviet Union or aligned with the Soviet Union. Russia realized that the word of the West was meaningless.

Not One Inch East

Then in 2014 there was a Nazi coup in Ukraine that was supported (at the very least) by the United States. This Maidan Revolution (named for the public square in Kiev where it began) overthrew a democratically leader of the country. Then began a civil war between Ukranine and the Russians who make up the Eastern part of the country. Russia tried for years to settle these disputes to no avail and finally when a larger number of Russian were going to be killed (according to the UN) did Russia invade the country. Immediately Russia tried to end that dispute with agreements but the country was rebuffed at every turn.

Maidan Revolution

In this the name calling had the dissidents as “Putin puppets” unable to think for themselves but only following Kremlin propaganda. Obviously US and NATO propaganda was truthful.

The left and the right both supported this dissident view (to a minor extent). There was even an anti-war rally called “Rage Against the War Machine” that attracted both the left and the right. But some on the left would not attend because some evil people on the right were present, and some on the right would not attend because of the evil people on the left that were present.

Z – Special Military Operation

The third event started with the unprovoked attack on a settlement and dance party in Israel by the terrorist Hamas, an organization that politically controlled Gaza. This terrorist group must be destroyed if the citizens of Israel are to be able to live in peace. Hamas wants to create a new holocaust and is solely motivated by its hatred of Jews just like the Nazis. There were 1200 Israelis killed in the attack, which also included mass rape and the beheading of babies. No one was safe in this horrible act.

Hamas Attack

The alternative view of this third crisis was that there was a revolt from “the world’s largest open air prison” ( Human Rights Watch) which upset the government of Israel that ran the prison and that country used this revolt as an excuse to drive the inhabitants of the Gaza Strip away from that territory so that Israel could once again take over that area. Much like slave revolts in the South of America, such as those of Nat Turner or Denmark Vesey, this revolt was not nice or pretty but totally understandable.

This dissident view holds that there were no rapes during the attack and only one child was killed and by accident. Of the 1200 killed, just over 300 were military and, according to an Israeli newspaper, over 300 of those killed were killed by the Israeli military, but since no complete investigation was done we really have no idea how many were really killed by the Israeli military.

And of course the all-in-one epithet condemning Hamas and all those who made even a mild criticize of what Israel is doing as antisemitism, thus conflating Zionism — the driving force behind the creation of Israel — with Judaism, which is a spiritual belief.

The right in general were extremely supportive of the Israeli side — definitely no anti-Semites here. While the right has long bemoaned those snowflakes who got upset when someone criticized them, condemning the whole woke culture of the Left, the right was in a hurry to support the Jewish snowflakes who were upset that some were criticizing the State of Israel. Are we seeing the birth of the”Woke Right”? In a world were the terrorist organization which is an offshoot of Al Qaeda is now rebranded as a ruler of Syria since they are now woke such a change is certainly possible.

The left was more supportive of the Palestinian side since many are aware of the apartheid nature of Israel, but still many on the left support Israel, perhaps because they are ashamed that America did not allow Jewish refugees to enter the country during World War II or refused to bomb the rail lines to the death camps in Nazi Germany.

Hades-Kronos Conjunction

Uranian sidebar: Beginning in 2010 there was a conjunction between two Trans-Neptunian planets, Hades and Kronos. The name Hades — Greek name for Pluto — suggests some of the disgust engendered by the planet. For an example from real Life, on 9/11 Hades was conjunct the Natal Mars of the United States with an orb of three minutes. Kronos — the Greek equivalent of Saturn — is said to rule high things like skyscrapers, governments, other large organizations. On 9/11 Kronos was at 0 Cancer and square the MC of the US. Perhaps this conjunction is like a super Saturn-Pluto conjunction. In a personal example, as a young child I had transiting Hades opposite my Sun, and that Spring I had a number of illnesses, the worst of which was encephalitis lethargica, which put me in a coma for three weeks.

These two planets came into a conjunction about 2010 and the conjunction will continue until 2050 with the exact conjunction happening at the end of this decade. From the graphical ephemeris it can be seen the Hades (‘C’ with a cross) is closely even thought it is a fourth harmonic graphical ephemeris, both planets are really in Cancer) conjunct the US Sun from 2022 through 2025 and Kronos (cross with a lid on)from 2020 to 2024. In the 2030s both planets conjoin the US Mercury, representing the Press. There can be two quite opposite meanings, and I believe both will come to pass. In the negative realm there will be much death and widespread corruption, which of course we are already seeing. But on a positive side this conjunction could mean reaching a higher plane through disgust with the current reality. We shall see what the future brings. But for now, everything is broken.
