On June 30, the Supreme Court struck down President Trump's executive order and upheld birthright citizenship, 5-4. I read this case at the World Astrology Summit this spring, before oral arguments began. Two questions were on the table: what the Court would decide, and when. The first

A Saturn–Mars conjunction is already a significant event in mundane astrology. These two malefics meet in the same degree roughly every two years, and their conjunctions have long been read as markers of conflict, severity, and forceful reorganization – themes that surface in the world in concrete ways as the
In the early hours of February 28, 2026, the United States and Israel launched a coordinated military campaign against the Islamic Republic of Iran, adding to the number of significant escalations in Middle East conflict.

On the afternoon of April 10, a social media post from the official account of U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) presented a now-deleted graphic listing the agency’s enforcement targets: “people,” “money,” “products,” and “ideas.” The caption reinforced the point: if it crosses the U.S. border

Yesterday morning, several publications, including Jacobin and The New Statesman, prematurely published obituaries for the renowned linguist and activist Noam Chomsky, leading to widespread rumors of his death on social media platforms. The Brazilian news site Diario do Centro do Mundo also initially reported Chomsky's passing,[1] and
I recently decided to re-watch House of Cards. It's one of those unique viewings centered around the story's bad guys, the antagonist (Francis J. Underwood) and deuteragonist (and his wife, Claire Hale Underwood). I just re-watched an episode that featured Arlington National Cemetery, a
Early Tuesday morning, a major disaster struck Baltimore when a large cargo ship crashed into the Francis Scott Key Bridge, causing a catastrophic collapse that sent vehicles and construction workers plunging into the frigid waters of the Patapsco River below. [1] The Singapore-flagged container ship Dali, which had just
This article generated some discussion on the Skyscript forums: see forum thread. A satellite set to re-enter earth's atmosphere uncontrollably is anticipated to do so tomorrow, nearly three decades following its launch. The European Space Agency (ESA) has identified the ERS-2 satellite's re-entry

On Sunday, Venezuela held a referendum where the voters rejected the jurisdiction of the International Court of Justice (ICJ) in its attempts to arbitrate a longstanding territorial dispute with Guyana. [1] This move was a bold statement of national sovereignty and a strategic play for the future. The referendum (which

Around 6:30am local time, Hamas – a militant group formed in resistance to the occupation of Palestinian land – announced Operation Al-Aqsa Flood with thousands of rockets sent from the Gaza Strip toward Israel.

Data
Northern Ireland police data leaked. Yesterday, the Police Service of Northern Ireland (PSNI) answered a Freedom of Information (FOI) request. Instead of sending the truncated data that was asked for, a representative of the PSNI inadvertently sent out the source data. The Guardian reports that the data shared online included

Today's Coast Guard press conference revealed the regrettable (and avoidable) fate of those aboard the submersible craft Titan. This chart is set for the start of the press conference, and instead of using the press conference location, I have set it for the mid-Atlantic coordinates where the

Saturn in Pisces
Two days ago, I shared a technical analysis of the drivers behind the largest US bank closure since the 2008 financial crash. Silicon Valley Bank's stock prices tumbled as the markets opened on the opposition of the Moon (12° Libra) to Jupiter (13° Aries). The Moon opposes Jupiter
Silicon Valley Bank
Only hours ago, the FDIC – a body responsible for insuring deposits in US banks to undergird public confidence in the banking system – announced closure of Silicon Valley Bank, the venture capitalist bank of choice for tech start-ups. The long and short of it: the businesses that SVB funded have
