So Sun’s in LIBRA now, so allow me to give you my unsolicited “observation” (opinion). One thing I’ve noticed during this eclipse period, and as we move past the Mars squaring Pluto, is that we’re now beyond the tipping point.
[Quick caveat: I don’t play left–right politics. Maybe it’s the Aries in me, but I regard that pantomime shit as just the distraction. Either you’re awake to the machinery being built around your very human ass, or you’re still suckling at the 3D spectacle, thinking it’s real, and if you work hard at it, you’ll really get somewhere. Just look at Charlie. Let that be a lesson for all you dumb kids. What is becoming super obvious is this: a hard split is wedging in between the protected in-crowd and the “expendables”. Perhaps the language of politics varies from postcode to postcode, but the logic remains the same—some people are to be shielded at all costs, while others are to be neatly managed, coralled gently towards the scrap heap. There’s no left and right in my book. Just people who see the digital onslaught and people who can’t. All good.]NB: We all have a little Aries in us
Ok, so let’s look at the template, beyond your typical neighbourhood vagrant. In the most striking example, Israel–Palestine, for instance, a whole population is administratively ousted from their habitat, fenced off, starved of basics, and policed/’iced’, as a problem to be solved. That is not just an event; it’s a method. Versions of that method, applied throughout history, are currently being applied as people migrate through the Western world and even into American life. You can see it in the way undocumented migrants, the unhoused, the addicted, the visibly poor, black and brown, even white communities, queer and trans people—anyone deemed “unsightly” or “undeserving” of equal respect—are being talked about and treated. Resources are being purposely withheld or spitefully misappropriated as a moral lesson. “They’ll never be one of us, so why waste anything on them?” That’s the mood. Cruelty is being rebranded as ‘the new order’. New attitude.
Pluto in Aquarius, at work with the “social transformations”.
Since the pivotal assassination of Charlie Kirk—and the instant sanctification that followed—the clampdown is starting to accelerate. Big public dissent against “the other mob” is being recast as criminal conspiracy. People with legal status are snatched by masked ICE squads, then sequestered. Universities are purged of all intellectual rhetoric. All media is cowed to stfu. It’s performative politics, yes, but it’s also practical: make examples, frighten both individuals and institutions, and let the rest self-censor and fall quietly into line. The point here isn’t to debate until you win an argument; it’s to narrow the field of what can be said without cost. That’s why we need to speak up louder.
Trump’s whole schtick sits neatly on top of all this jackbox. The autocratic posturing, the mass-deportation talk that only others in his team may spruik, his transactional contempt for Europe, the on-again off-again flirtation with Moscow, the vows to punish enemies at home, while he’s ordained as supremely untouchable—it’s all still part of his posture—but he himself knows he’s under the pump, because Baba Bibi is there to remind us all: power owes you nothing, and the most ancient tribe decides who counts most. Around the Donald, cunts like Stephen Miller are pushing their Christian-flavoured brand of jingoistic authoritarianism: the rhetoric of cleansing dressed up as national renewal. Call it faith if you like; functionally, it’s a permission structure for state and para-state force of volatile, angry, men in brown shirts with a fetish for control. It’s one thing these Virgo/Pisces eclipses are screaming at us.
And I know you are shivering with emotion by this stage.
Here’s where the astrology can help clarify the group psychology. Mars wants to act—enforce, cut, raid. Pluto governs the basement—computer files, political leverage, the old dream of clinical purification via compartmentalisation. Retrograde Pluto brings back yesterday’s obsessions about “freedom” and “progress” while Mars in Scorpio is ruthlessly intent on ignoring the usual handrails to get “results”. Translate that into grounded reality, and you get a fanatical class of executives, avenging freelancing enforcers and sideshow grifters, coercively coaching the public into mistaking severity for competence. It’s all inverted. All this breaches past “creeping” authoritarianism; we’re marching dangerously close to the brisk, strident, and increasingly procedural stages of fascism.
The elite split explains the confidence. Corporatists once preferred the old façade—rules, treaties, courteous stability. Oligarchs thrive in rupture. They privatise all essential services, build tollbooths, monetise collapse and plunder, and hire private muscle to defend the gates. Right now, the oligarchs are winning. That’s why you’re getting more spectacle, fewer restraints, and a thicker fog over anything that might still pass for common sense, let alone common good.
If you can’t or won’t leave a shit state, the real decision is simpler and harder: do you muzzle yourself to stay off the radar, or do you speak plainly and accept the risk? I can’t make that call for anyone. But I’ll say this: denial is how people eventually end up on trains. The social order degrades faster than many of us who don’t study history can imagine, and by the time respectable people admit it, the official documentation is already in flight.
Again, let me refer: the sorry fate of the Palestinian people is the beta test for all this…
So, yeah—past the tipping point. Not the end of THE world, but the end of the old world of Hollywood illusions. Expect more sorting of humans, more bureaucratised violence, more “holy land” talk to bless supremely ugly acts our children have to witness on TikTok. It’s now hypernormalisation of the ugly. Expect borders to tighten arbitrarily, alliances to wobble, and domestic life to get meaner around the edges. And expect this to be sold to you as the necessary medicine. If you’re awake, stay awake, my friend. If you can’t see the elephant in the room, the door will soon close quietly, then with a clang.

The empire is rotting from within and without. The vultures in power or funding it are ready to feed off of the carrion. Party affiliation means nothing if everyone has been bought or blackmailed into submission. All the usual government remedies have been corrupted. This has been creeping to the final crescendo since we dropped the atomic bomb.
So what is the remedy? Boycotts? Petitions? Protests? Speaking the truth? When no one is listening and there is the threat of national guards and private prisons? The U.S. is alienating the world and there will be a price to be paid. It will first come economically with the rejection of the dollar and the calling in of loans. With the bankruptcies that the president has always profited from, as will the super rich, will come austerity. A nation that turned on its tired, poor and huddled masses will learn to be immigrants seeking a better life. Attack from without and either Depression or revolution within… but this empire will fall like every empire before it. Those evil alliances that we have formed will tumble with us. The question is who will rise and what will they do with their power? Maybe you have some insights.
