JOIN SHERI HORN HASAN WHEN THIS WEEK’S PODCAST DROPS @KARMIC EVOLUTION DOT COM JULY 5 as we say “happy birthday” to America, which turned 248 years old on July 4!

Given the current state of the nation, it’s time to review both its past and its future—especially within the context of the triggering of our first exact Pluto return, which perfected initially on February 20, 2022 & whose effects are still being felt now. The fact that America is now in a long-term state of transformation is, at this point, undeniable, and the only questions now are how long will this transformational period last & what will be the end result?



It seems impossible to deny that the United States of America, a Cancer Sun nation, is having a recurrence of the energies of the late 1770’s since transiting Pluto first returned to its natal place on February 20, 2022 & it repercussions are still being felt. To prove this, we need only look at the major Supreme Court ruling on presidential immunity issued on July 1--during the waning portion of the previous Gemini New Moon cycle--which essentially anoints a U.S. president a king.

Given that this is what the original colonists fought against during the American Revolutionary War—which lasted from 1775-1783—it would seem we’ve been thrust back in time to relive a similar situation now.



Is it possible the current state of chaos & confusion related to the upcoming November 5 U.S. presidential election is the result of an undeniably disastrous June 27 debate performance by President Biden two days before Saturn stationed retrograde on June 29 & less than a week before Neptune's station retrograde July 2? Well, it certainly seems these heavenly retrogrades have thrust this nation back into a crisis of wondering who will lead us through not only current, but future, crises & whether that person is up to the job…

We look in this podcast as the prescient writing of NY-based astrologer Michael Lutin, who wrote in the December 2006 issue of Vanity Fair Magazine that as transiting Pluto in Capricorn reconjoined its natal position in the U.S. birth chart that:



“The words "patriot" and "treason" will lose their meaning, and in some cases they will become interchangeable. What is treason to one person will be patriotism to another—just as it was back in the 1760s and 70s. The country's mood will become darker and much more conservative. It's not going to be a matter of Democrat or Republican anymore, because the new ideologies will bleed across party lines.”



We explore, too, how this July 5 Cancer New Moon--which pits Juno, the asteroid goddess of “the partner” in Virgo against Saturn retrograde in Pisces--poses barriers & boundaries in the realm of partnership. This is echoed as well in the grand cardinal cross formed by both luminaries in opposition to dwarf planet Ceres in authoritative Capricorn. This leaves us at a crossroads as they all square the transiting karmic Libra South Node & Aries North Node at this lunation.

If we look at this in the context of Washington, D.C., and the June 27 U.S. presidential debate between Joe Biden & Donald Trump, we can see Juno in Virgo’s critical nature against a weak-appearing father (read: authority figure.) As Jungian astrologer Liz Greene puts it in her book “Saturn: A New Look at an Old Devil,” Saturn in Pisces represents, among other things, “a weak father.”



Tune in—today or anytime—to KARMIC EVOLUTION DOT COM to learn more about the triggering of America’s Pluto return & how we’re in the thick of it now. And how criticism of the current president became louder as we approached the Mercury in Leo opposition to Pluto in Aquarius. July 3.



We’ll look at Venus entering Leo as we head toward July 11 & her opposition to Pluto by July 12, & whether or not there will be increased resistance to funding the campaigns of both sitting President Biden and his opponent Donald Trump. It’s already in the ethers right now for Biden as we can clearly see.



All this & more astro news you can use—including Venus’s square wounded healer Chiron July 5 & 6, trines of the Sun & Venus to Neptune Rx July 10 & 11, and that Venus/Pluto opposition July 12 as we head toward the Cancer New Moon’s first quarter square July 13! See you later! Namaste…
