WROTE ME the other day:

I've been peering over DT's chart for a while now and wondered how his chart continues to shine, even with the few hurdles, nothing seems to deter his path of chaos. I remember an East Indian Astrologer once said that his chart indicated that he was a demon released in the world for the sole purpose of creating chaos. There is an interesting aspect with Mars and the US chart around the election. Before the 5th of November, transiting Mars will oppose the US natal Pluto at 27 degrees Capricorn and go up to 6 degrees Leo and retrograde on that degree which is partile the North Node of the US chart, then come back down to hit that opposition again. I think it'll be a bumpy road around that time. Anyhow, the dude is disturbing to say the least. So it goes...

I’ll comment on some of Ron’s remarks and questions below.

But first, a disclaimer: I’m a bare essentials’ astrologer. I don’t employ solar arcs, ‘Uranian’ planets, Zodiacal releasing, dark moons, or asteroids (i.e., chunks of shattered planets with no ‘influence’ as they are, well, dead). Some years back I stopped working with secondary progressions as the technique deterred me from just looking at the horoscope as it was positioned in the here and now — which is where objective reality, for all of us, is taking place.

The craziest I get with delineation is referencing the Sabian symbols. I can’t explain why I’m drawn to them (probably from years of doing dream interpretation), but having studied the system for decades now, and applied them to hundreds of charts, there is definitely something potent to them.

That said. WTF is up with Trump’s transits? Let’s take a look.

Yesterday started his porn star trial in New York, the first time a former president has ever been dragged into court in a criminal case. Here’s why this indictment is different from the others.
