SERIOUSLY, WTF WAS THAT?
Today I jumped into the horoscopes for Pete Hegseth and the natal chart for the United States. I also referenced the transits in play during the Quantico gathering on September 30.
With Trump’s pronouncement that the US military might be turned against US citizens to accommodate its training objectives, his administration hit a tipping point within its seemingly unchecked authority. In the future these two speeches will be looked back on as the moment MAGA spellcasting began to flounder.
While working on this cast, I couldn’t help but think about the closing chapter of the depraved and tyrannical emperor Caligula. Exhausted by his descending spiral into madness, he was assassinated as a result of a conspiracy by the military officers of the Praetorian Guard. This was considered an opportunity to restore the Roman Republic.
Uhm…OK.
My discussion with Jessica Murray that I reference in this cast is here.
Love,
