Well, a warm welcome back to Astrology Unbound, welcome to season two and thanks to all the loyal listeners who had the podcast in their top five on Spotify wrapped. I got a lot of notifications about that on Instagram and it's great to see so many people making this part of their Monday morning and now you can, you know, make it part of your Monday morning again. I took a few weeks off, many weeks off, and this was for a number of reasons Wanted to transition into season two. Also, I was focused on my 2025 horoscopes and that's a quick reminder to check out the 2025 horoscopes. They are giving detailed insights into every new and full moon next year as it applies to your sun, moon and rising signs. It also covers key retrograde dates, other major trends, and it is accompanied by really rich visuals. It's got a professional production setup. So I went all in on those videos and over 6,000 of you have already downloaded a video and I'm really humbled by the support, because there's a lot of research that goes into those annual videos and it really helps me make even better content heading into next year.

Each video is 20 bucks and the discount actually expires at the end of the year. So, yeah, we have a lot to catch up on.
Speaker 1:Obviously, the last episode was before the election. So, yeah, we have a lot to catch up on. Obviously, the last episode was before the election. So there's that, along with many other geopolitical changes, we have some, you know, positive events, also some really traumatic events. I mean, there's a lot, a lot of complex things to cover here and so let's just go through it. So, you know, consider this episode sort of a level setting. You know what's changed fall season, like what happened in the fall, and you know, obviously, as we go through this, it can sort of give us some context indicators on what is coming next, on what is coming next. So you know, first off, the presidential election, what happened and what's next.
Speaker 1:So, way back in July I don't remember the exact day, but it was like mid-July I saw Kamala Harris becoming the nominee. This was before Biden actually stepped aside. I saw her becoming the nominee. I saw her secondary progressed moon aligned with the US Sun, which suggested that she had some kind of potential path to victory. However, I did not, even back then, really see her ever taking the lead in the polls and she was running behind Trump in the national polls pretty much throughout. But by the time we reached mid-October so three months later I was on my YouTube channel saying you know, trump has an 80% chance of winning. That was my intuition at that time and by that time and Trump did end up winning the election.
Speaker 1:And I think it's interesting that a lot of astrologers probably I don't know the exact ratio, but maybe three out of four predicted Harris, although it's kind of interesting because if you actually just use political instinct and you take the astrology out of it, um, you know Trump was not only leading in the polls but seemed to sort of be positioned to win just based on the fact that Trump's base, uh, was very enthusiastic about the candidate Right. So anytime you have an enthusiasm gap, you know there's that's a challenge for one of one of the teams and you know, I think that when you're making predictions about elections there's so many other people involved. It's sort of like predicting which team is going to win the Super Bowl based on the quarterbacks charts, predicting which team is going to win the Super Bowl. Based on the quarterback's charts, it's not really sufficient. But you know, I found it interesting that Harris's progress moon again was aligned with the United States sun, which suggests that, you know, she is either kind of like playing a quasi-presidential role right now as Biden sort of recedes from public life Maybe not public life, but as he sort of starts to recede from the spotlight, and I think that in some ways she has been almost perceived in that way by the public as like sort of an acting president, just in the collective consciousness, as Biden again has been not like entirely MIA, but it's just. You know, we all know that Biden has had a lot of like cognitive issues and whatnot. So anyways, you know Harris, you know she lost because again there was an enthusiasm gap, but again it's interesting that the astrology was showing that she had some type of opportunity to rise.
Speaker 1:But you know, trump sort of, I think, has created his own timeline at this point, because what did I say about a year ago? I said that around July 15th of this year Trump would be quote unquote dethroned as the Republican Party's leader, and that was a euphemism for hey guys, like something kind of I mean, something pretty bad could happen around July 15th, because you know the Mars-Uranus alignment was on his midheaven, and indeed on July 13th, two days before that, there was an assassination attempt and you know it was a matter of inches. And had he not turned his head in that moment, you know that Mars-Uranus conjunction, that would have been it for him. But because he turned his head and survived that, I mean you could argue that astrology is always showing us the sort of parameters of like what's actually happening. And if you, you know, loop in the fact that Jupiter was on his North node, perhaps it was just perfectly, uh, it was meant to play out that way, meaning that he was meant to turn his head like that and that you know, there was some kind of divine timing where you know he was again meant to survive it. But I do think that we all have free will and you know, either way, you know the fact that he has Regulus on his ascendant, which is a you know it's in the name, but it's a very regal star, and the fact that he has Jupiter near his north node. It's like you have to wonder if all these transits that astrologers are analyzing about him are somewhat of a moot point, like perhaps he's just sort of like you know, able to carve out his own destiny. I mean, it is, it's just like an. It's an open sort of thought that's worth just considering. It's an open sort of thought that's worth just considering.
Speaker 1:But, either way, trump is very, I think, keen streamline operations within the government, and I've heard that like potentially, they're going to be using AI to identify inefficiencies, and that deployment of like AI in a government context is something that I talked about a couple of years ago when Pluto was like first kind of flirting with the sign of Aquarius back in early 2023. I was actually talking on a YouTube video about how AI could play sort of well, a pivotal role in the government in the near future, whether it be an AI representative who is speaking on behalf of their constituents by basically calling information or data from you know, that voting block or from that, or just from the people who live in that area and, just, you know, legislating based on every individual person's preferences and sort of like amalgamating that into some kind of like bill or legislation or law. I mean, obviously we're not there yet, but the deployment of AI in making sort of you know again, like key decisions about how to organize an agency or a governmental body, is very much Pluto in Aquarius. So, you know, there's astrologers have also yeah, they've given their take on what Pluto in Aquarius means, what it was going to mean for the election, and some people were saying, well, pluto in Aquarius is all about egalitarianism and the rise of sort of a new type of candidate, and I think that people were using that to justify their prediction that Harris would win. But if you actually, you know again, think about the meaning of Aquarius, it is not status quo and it is surprising sometimes and it typically will try to upend anything that's overly hierarchical. And so, while I'm not inserting my personal political opinions into this podcast because I've mentioned this on my YouTube before, but I don't really buy into partisan politics I don't believe that that is really my role as an astrologer. My goal is to just kind of analyze what's going on, how are the energies manifesting.
Speaker 1:But anyways, aquarius is the sign that can shock people, right, but it's also the sign that, in the Iranian sense, can rebel. You know, it can sort of be akin to Trump selecting someone as a cabinet pick who is almost like loathing the very agency that they're taking on or someone who plans to, you know, just kind of like shake up the approach that that agency would take. And I think that the most obvious example is the nomination of Robert F Kennedy Jr. And you know, with his, with the selection of RFK Jr, it's there's going to be a complete change in how the federal government deals with and addresses national health concerns. And again, I'm not assigning value to the candidates or the picks, but I'm just saying that it would be intellectually dishonest to say that RFK Jr is not a representative, in some ways, of the Pluto in Aquarius transit.
Speaker 1:Because you know what is the state of our healthcare system right now, whether or not you agree with healthcare policies, it's like we obviously have a system that is, you know, incredibly bureaucratic, sort of impenetrable and impossible to navigate, and who knows what will happen when he is actually sort of enacting policies and making decisions. But he is going in with the attitude of like we need to change a lot in Washington about again how we manage health. And that, by the way, also reflects the fact that Saturn and Neptune are in Pisces, which is a sign that deals with health care and health and hospitals found it interesting that a lot of astrologers were sort of leveraging this Aquarian transit to say that, well, this means that Harris is guaranteed to win and it's a reflection of, you know, a sort of democratic or a democratic left sort of ideal that's coming through and, you know, maybe the first female president will have the first female president as a country. But I think like it doesn't guarantee that right. It just guarantees that there will be a pretty shocking sort of like, not regime change, but just sort of an administration coming in that is trying to do almost everything differently, an administration coming in that is trying to do almost everything differently. Now again, who knows if anything will change, it's too soon to tell. But just based on the rhetoric, at this time it does sound like some of these new agency leaders and cabinet picks are taking this attitude of like, well, yeah, let's streamline things, let's flatten certain organizations, let's increase transparency, let's release, you know, redacted files and et cetera, et cetera.
Speaker 1:So I just wanted to mention that because I've had a lot of people ask me, you know, through various channels like what? Like, why did you, why did you get so silent after the election? Like, why didn't you address this? And you know I do, on my paid Substack channel, have a video that explains, like, what I see happening after the election, like I covered the election aftermath over on my Substack, but just in like a public forum, just let it be known that number one, I did originally see Harris becoming the nominee.
Speaker 1:I did see her having a path to victory because of her progressed moon aligning with the U S sun, because the progressed moon will show well, I mean the progressed moon has a lot to do with you know, your, uh, you know your vitality, your health, but really your essence. I think I mean the progressed moon, I mean honestly, like the transits of the progressed moon can show a lot of things. I've even noticed that, like, sometimes, um, there are certain aspects to the progressed moon that indicate that someone is about to pass away. I mean the, the, the progressed moon is very powerful and it does show like a changing of your emotional makeup and a lot of other things as well. But I see the moon as you know, it is that sort of incarnated version of who you are, because the sun has a lot more to do with, like, your goals and your spirit and you know your, you know sort of creative essence. But the moon is that sort of like flesh and blood self. You know, it's the constitution of the body, it's the, it's the hormones, it's a range of things like like this.
Speaker 1:And so, anyways, a range of things like this, and so, anyways, the fact that her progressed moon was aligning with the United States sun, with the sun being executives and leaders and the moon not only being the things I mentioned but also the feminine, it was a very auspicious and interesting alignment. Because it's like what are the odds that, approximately 60 days after Kamala Harris was born, that her son would be around 13 degrees of cancer, although technically it was at 14 cancer by then? But what are the odds that her moon is aligned with not only the fixed star, sirius, but the United States sun? However, there are obviously a whole range of other factors that go into making presidential predictions. So you have to look at what all the other planets are doing in her transit, uh, in her transits, and same for trump, um, and you know, again, like you also have to look at their inauguration day charts, those hypotheticals. But anyways, based on that, I that I sort of used that transit to kind of spearhead my prediction.
Speaker 1:But in the intervening months. By the time we got to mid-October I did see Trump as having that 80% chance of victory, because also part of my prediction was that the Aries full moon on October 17th would actually challenge Trump a lot and that there was something going on with his head, like literally. I saw some type of way back then in July. I was like I wonder if he's going to have like a mini stroke or something and that maybe that would change the trajectory of the election. Now what's interesting is that on the 17th 18th, like in that vicinity we did have not only a rally where he stood there in silence for almost an hour or a half hour at the end, but then the next day there was, you know, an interview he did where someone asked him about his cognition and there were questions in the media about his cognition and in response to this question about hey, like, are you mentally fit to run right now?
Speaker 1:There's been some concerns about your age and whatnot he responded I have no cognition, I have no cognition, I have no cognition. That was literally his response. So is there a chance that there was some kind of mini-stroke event? It's possible. Clearly it was not enough to merit any kind of continual news reporting about it. But there was, archetypally, thematically, I think, some merit to the prediction I gave and there are some astrologers who have been continuing to track his health right. Like there are a lot of people who think, well, maybe his health is actually not so great. I don't really feel confident in saying that, like, I personally don't know if his health is actually compromised right now. I just think it's possible that there may have been some type of cognitive episode, like in the vicinity of that Aries full moon, for a number of reasons which I talked about in my sub stack.
Speaker 1:Now, what do we have for Trump? I mean, again, he won the election. I don't understand why some astrologers and psychics continue to hang on to this possibility that there's like going to be a recount or some sort of blockage in the certification process. I mean, I think it's in three days that they're going to officially all the electors are going to certify the election results. So I mean I don't really see how that would change. But anyways, you know, mercury is retrograde right now. It passed the south node opposed to Uranus, and it's going to move direct over those points.
Speaker 1:Again, I mean, I was thinking maybe there's something going on with some of his travels, travel plans maybe being thwarted, or maybe there's a travel, you know difficulty or some kind of mechanical issue while he's traveling. All of that remains possible but for the most part, you know, I'm not really seeing, apart from the Mercury transit right now. I'm not really seeing a ton of challenge for him. I mean, mars is retrograde near his Pluto, I mean, and same for Biden, but as of the time of this recording, nothing has really manifested from that. What's interesting is that, you know, around inauguration day, mars is actually retrograde on his Saturn, so that'll be interesting to watch.
Speaker 1:That suggests that his inauguration address will probably be pretty heavy handed in taking on what he sees as sort of the dysfunctional nature of the government itself or aspects of the government itself. It's just I don't know if I would phrase it as like well, I mean, it's like he may highlight that sort of like that initiative again from Musk and Vivek to again streamline some aspects of the government. I feel like there's something about in his speech. There's going to be something about, you know, the fact that you know this is going to be a totally new way of doing things in Washington and again, who knows if it'll actually play out that way, but I think the Mars-Saturn conjunction in his transit would suggest that he is really trying to take on some pretty, you know, substantive, and I mean incumbent legacy sort of institutions in Washington, not to say that he I mean again, I don't think that it works that way where he's just going to be like eliminating agencies but certainly stripping back some of you know maybe some of the staffing or some of the function of these things.
Speaker 1:But yeah, so anyways, I feel like the only wild card between now and Inauguration Day would be Mercury, again on his south node, posing as Uranus, while, by the way, jupiter is near his Uranus. There's some unpredictability with travel, in that case, um, and maybe with his like nervous system. But I would put the probability of like any of that like actually taking effect at like maybe 40, 35, 30, so again like, most likely not um, but if there was something to happen in those areas and those sort of thematic um, yeah, within those themes, it wouldn't entirely shock me. I maintain that there just does seem to be some shenanigans with travel or again with just generally the nervous system, especially as a Gemini there. But again, if he just sort of sails towards Inauguration Day, then wouldn't be surprised by that.
Speaker 1:But I will also point out, as I talked about on a show last week, mars is going to retrograde back to 29 Cancer on January 6th, squaring the 2021 January 6th Mars which was at 29 Aries, mars which was at 29 Aries. So it does beg the question of like, is there some sort of catalytic event between now and inauguration day that either sparks another type of January 6th event or is there just like a commemoration of January 6th? And at this point the only thing I could think of is maybe again, maybe something health-wise does happen to Trump, maybe something travel-wise does happen and Trump's base is sort of reacting to that, responding to that, inflamed by that, maybe we just get information about, maybe the assassination attempt from July 13th, maybe there's something that comes out that suggests that you know it was a coordinated thing or that there's some kind of information from that's leaking. That again sort of inflames Trump's base and compels them to almost sort of demonstrate on January 6th. I see some kind of drama around January 6th. That again either has to do with like feeling like there was a conspiracy against him or again and literally feeling like they like that Trump is sort of that he has these sort of enemies coming out and that they need to sort of defend and protect their president-elect.
Speaker 1:I mean, there's something I'm not going to like be hyperbolic right and say, oh, this is like the beginning of a civil war. I feel like that would be pretty far-fetched. Of a civil war, I feel like that would be pretty far-fetched. The only reason that it could is if, like, well, the only markers of a potential civil war would be like, hey, we have Uranus going into Gemini, which it was in Gemini during the civil war, you know, we have Neptune going into Aries as well. So like, if you think about the alignments around the Civil War, so let's go back to 1861 or so. You know we had Uranus and Gemini and we also had Neptune entering Aries. Eventually, during the Civil War, it went into Aries. Let's see here I have to get my software up. Oh yeah, I mean it went into Aries, you can see it here, in 1862. I guess you can't see it, you're listening. Oh yeah, I mean it went into Aries. You can see it here in 1862. I guess you can't see it, you're listening.
Speaker 1:But there are some traits there that government to you know, deport people. I know California is trying to protect immigrants in certain contexts and, you know, I mean you will see a back and forth, because a lot of, you know, governors in blue states are like, oh, we've seen this story before. Governors in blue states are like, oh, we've seen this story before, and we have to create sort of a bulwark against any kind of like overreach by the federal government, you know. So it's kind of interesting, though, how this is all playing out, because it's almost like you have an administration coming in that is trying to pare back the federal branch. I mean, again, this is all just rhetoric at this point, so we don't know what will actually happen. But we have an administration coming in that's saying, well, we want to actually pare back the sort of influence of the federal branch of government. But, you know, the blue states are also posturing in a way that suggests, oh well, what if they adopt autocratic behaviors? What if? You know Trump's administration? What if he behaves in a dictatorial way? So it's like everybody's kind of paranoid about what the other side might do, and so, yeah, I think that it is possible that January 6th will be sort of a redux of the 2021 January 6th, meaning that there is a demonstration, maybe in DC. Again, the question becomes what are people reacting to? Is it the left's version of January 6th? I mean, I doubt it. I don't really know what the catalyst would be there. But anyways, also, I promise I'm going to cover other topics, by the way, I'm just wanting to catch up basically on our intermission between seasons.
Speaker 1:But while Mercury is retrograde and sag, political parties mostly the Democrats are doing a lot of navel-gazing and being like well, what happened here? Why did we get this wrong? And so yesterday, I believe, or Friday, there was some kind of meetup of potential Democratic presidential candidates in 2028. They met up in Beverly Hills and they basically just did a brainstorm session and a bit of a Monday morning quarterbacking around. What do we want our party to look like if we're going to win? If we're going to win and again, I'm not associating with the party, I'm just saying like that's the type of conversation they were having Like what do we need to do as the Democrats to win next time? So yeah, there's a lot of head scratching and within like relationships right now, I think a lot of people are maybe surprised that, oh, my partner voted for the other person and what do we do about that? Or maybe you had a dramatic Thanksgiving where you realized that someone in your family actually voted for the person you hate, like whatever it was. I think there's a lot of reassessment going on of that and yeah, so, anyways, let's dive into other topics.
Speaker 1:So we also had the new moon in Sag on December 1st, which was conjunct the fixed star Antares. Antares being the heart of the Scorpion, the watcher of the West, and it is a star that is very belligerent. It is associated with terrorism and crusades, religious wars. It's actually quite daunting If you talk to someone with their moon conjunct Antares, they've probably dealt with a lot of battles in their life, literally or figuratively. If you have Mercury conjunct Antares, like me, it's like you may feel sometimes like you're on more of an intellectual crusade. There's a lot of preachers who have Antares in their charts, whether it's the North Node or the South Node or Mercury or something else. So anyways, when Antares or Aldebaran, the other fixed star opposite Antares, whenever they are involved in like a new moon, a lunation cycle or with other planets, it does suggest that again there may be some kind of ideological battle underway.
Speaker 1:So 9-11, pluto was near Antares, saturn was near Aldebaran. The Gulf War, as that was starting to boil over Mars, was retrograde on Aldebron. That's when I was born, november 1990. Like, the Gulf War was very much like tension was starting to build there between Iraq, kuwait, the United States and the you know, partner countries. So now that we have this new moon conjunct Antares, I talked about this, like on my YouTube and on other shows, like is there going to be almost like a religious war, a crusade underway? Is there going to be some kind of recalibration of dynamics in the Middle East? And that exactly happened.
Speaker 1:I don't track Syria's chart. I don't track Bashar al-Assad's chart every day. Like that's just not. I don't have bandwidth to cover you know everyone's chart all at once when I'm doing research, although in theory, eventually, hopefully, I'll hire researchers to help me with that. But you know it's very obvious that the Syrian government was in a pretty vulnerable spot and the Syrian government has fallen as of the time of this recording. And this is indicative of like, yeah, maybe there is another, maybe not crusade, but you know a protracted sort of war in the Middle East between many countries now getting roped in, and you know the rebellion again in the Middle East is associated with Antares, and you know, the rebellion, again in the Middle East, is associated with Antares and Bashar al-Assad, the former, now former president of Syria, has his south node, conjunct Antares, the south node being karma and points of release.
Speaker 1:So any astrologer, like who has any legitimate astrologer, like if they had time to actually look at Al-Assad's chart maybe some astrologer did but it's like if you look at that chart, it's like wow, the new man on a south node, like his Saturn return, exact right now, like this is not good for him, right? And you know, obviously it was a really corrupt government, so it's you know, obviously it was a really corrupt government, so it's you know, obviously it needed to be dismantled. But anyways, I'm just saying that it's very obvious that that new moon on a south node was going to lead to some kind of draining away of power because of its juxtaposition with his Saturn return, by the way, because you know, surely there have been other Saturn new moons on a south node, but this one was paired up with the Saturn return. Now to jump to another topic the healthcare industry is totally spooked right now. Again, this is something I talked about on my YouTube channel. Before December, when I was previewing December, making predictions, I was like I just feel like the healthcare industry is under some kind of scrutiny, some kind of strife. There's a paradigm shift there, not just through the lens of RFK Jr's nomination to the health secretary sort of cabinet position, but people are adopting a totally different stance on personal health and the health care system. And if you pair that with the Antares New Moon, which I also mentioned as being a crusader's energy, that was not a great cocktail, that was not a great mix, because Antares, in my opinion, does have associations with terrorism or acts of violence that are ideologically motivated, of violence that are ideologically motivated. And so we had. There was the shooting in New York City, you know, the UnitedHealth CEO, Brian Thompson, was assassinated, basically While the sun, by the way, was squaring Saturn pretty much down to the minute, with the sun being executives, ceos, squaring Saturn, the planet of endings in Pisces, which is the planet of healthcare. So it's like people are also.
Speaker 1:After that, a lot of people reacted by highlighting and underscoring the sort of gut-wrenching experience of trying to get coverage or trying to get the health insurance company to cover an expense. And while the reactions were somewhat ghoulish and somewhat detached and whatnot, it still showed that the astrology is astrology. Right now it's like okay, people are ideologically averse in some ways to the healthcare industrial, the health industrial complex, the medical industrial complex. So, like, even if you're listening to this and you're like Evan, I'm not, you know, I'm not anti-vax and I'm not, you know, I'm not on board with, like RFK Jr and I, you know whatever, like wherever you are on the spectrum, it doesn't really matter.
Speaker 1:The point is that either people are saying, oh, maybe we should take a different perspective on, like vaccinations, or maybe, you know, we should just look at the healthcare industry differently. Maybe we should, you know, think about how the profit motive affects the delivery of healthcare, essentially healthcare services. Like all of this is within the soup of these transits that are happening. So it's like if, like, the last thing I want to do or create is like, I don't want the listener to react politically to what I'm saying, right, nothing I'm saying, and remember, I'm a Morris Gemini, so I don't want the listener to react politically to what I'm saying, right, nothing I'm saying, and remember, I'm a Mars Gemini, so I don't really play just one side. I'm not like in an echo chamber. I'm not that kind of person, so I don't want you to listen to this and be like well, I have to like align with Evan's views or I have to be this side or that side in order for what Evan's saying to make sense. Like all of this is in scope. So if you're like super, super, super pro every vaccine, but you know you think that healthcare companies are corrupt, you know you're seeing these trends play out.
Speaker 1:If you are someone who wants to question the things we put in our bodies and question the healthcare industry, like you know, go ahead. Like, whatever you believe. You are probably, though, shifting your beliefs somewhat, whether it's incrementally or categorically, because Mercury retrograde in Sagittarius, opposing Jupiter, squaring Saturn and even, at one point, almost squaring Neptune. It's like telling us to just like chisel away at the truth. Like, what is the core of, like what we believe personally about health? Do we have it wrong? Like do we? Yeah, like should we look to California? Who's, you know, a state that's taking forever plastics out of things and banning styrofoam in food delivery services? Like I think that we should be putting our heads together to try to tackle this.
Speaker 1:It's like not a Democrat or Republican thing. It's like health is wealth and health is a very personal thing, but it's also something that I think you can make decisions based on data with. And it's like obviously both sides are going to have great ideas. You're going to have people who are again looking into plastics and like do we want to take plastics out of things? Like, are the seed oils bad for us? And I'm not here to get on a pedestal about like what I personally think.
Speaker 1:That's, again, not the point of this podcast, but hopefully you've taken this time to double back and say wait a second. Actually, maybe this person has a point, maybe this person, who I'm diametrically opposed to, actually has a point. Like, let me just sit with it for a bit and assess whether or not that's true and let me not be self-righteous and let me be truthful with other people about what I believe. So, yeah, I think that, even though obviously that incident, the shooting, is tragic, it is calling attention to the fact that you know, healthcare, the state of healthcare in America is fairly dire from a number of perspectives, whether you think about it from the perspective of, like, obesity rates and the cost of that, or just again, a for-profit motive in the healthcare industry, like, whatever side you're on. However, whatever problem you want to focus on and zero in on, you can zero in on it right now. But it's really generated a conversation and I'm not defending the guy who did it, I'm not defending the coward who did that Like that is obviously a heinous act but it has provided these grounds for, like, a complete reevaluation of the healthcare system. So it will be interesting to see how RFK Jr applies his philosophy to this whole healthcare system and it'll be interesting to see how public opinion shifts over time.
Speaker 1:We're going to have Saturn square Jupiter coming up at the end of the month, the second Saturn Jupiter square after the August one, and there's another one next year in June, and this is all a follow-up and a 90-degree check-in on the Jupiter-Saturn conjunction in late December 2020. And what came out in late December? The COVID vaccine. So Pluto is at that zero degree Aquarius point where that conjunction occurred. So there is a lot of sort of dialogue right now about how do we achieve good health and what are the response. What should the response be to a crisis like a pandemic, or what should the preventative tactics be generally? So, again, take my opinion out of it. I'm just talking about the astrological alignments, like all of that is true. Objectively, pluto is at basically the vaccination zero degree Aquarius point. Pluto investigates, jupiter and Saturn are squaring right now, which scrutinizes the conjunction, which was the point in December when they launched that product in December 2020.
Speaker 1:So, yeah, that's a huge, huge theme and we also have this is going to be a random segue but we also had the John Benet Ramsey docuseries come out on Netflix. I just wanted to talk about this. I mean, that docuseries was really suspicious to me. I didn't really understand. I felt like the narrative was entirely skewed, um, so, first of all, if you actually look at um I mean, I don't know if you've actually seen the documentary, but you know you should look into the story it's, um, astrologically very, very fascinating, I mean.
Speaker 1:So JonBenet Ramsey was, you know, tragically murdered when she was six yeah, it was in late 96, and she was born in 1990. And I looked at her birth chart and it's like, okay, wow, this is really ominous. She was born during a lunar eclipse in Aquarius, a total lunar eclipse, while Mars was opposing Pluto, and this is all creating a fixed grand cross Mars-Pluto opposite shows that this is somebody who is more likely honestly to be in that situation honestly or to be involved in some kind of secretive act or some kind of act of violence. That has a lot of mystery to it and I just thought that there was something really bizarre about her family, her parents. The ransom note didn't really make a ton of sense and it didn't really fit the trends of what you would see in a ransom note an actual one. So, just doing my face reading sort of technique, I was doing a lot of face reading during the docu-series trying to figure out who's lying, and right away I could kind of tell that the mother was doing something a little strange where she would like raise her eyebrows while she was when she would close her eyes to like sort of you know, tell a sad story. And something about the eyebrow raise was really bizarre to me and felt a little manufactured Because I thought it was a little strange that the father was so detached. And when I looked at the father's chart it really sealed the deal for me.
Speaker 1:Now, this is just my opinion. I'm not making any like claims outside of astrology here, but if you do a synastry of John Ramsey, her father, if you do a synastry read of his chart and her chart. It's like a bullseye. Honestly, this is a karmic connection where he was actually fairly and I'm not excusing his behavior if he did commit the crime but this is somebody who is a lot more likely to do something like that, to commit a crime.
Speaker 1:His South Node is on her moon, his Pluto is on her South Node, so they have karma as family members from past lives. With the Pluto-South Node conjunction there's a lot of debt involved, like monetary, financial debt, and also a lot of secrecy, power control. So you know, obviously she was part of these beauty pageants and there was probably a lot of money in that eventually. And so he also has Mars retrograde in Gemini conjunct Uranus and that's just bizarre to me. That's a little bit. It's just a little deviant I think that's the word I would use. So I don't trust the guy based on his chart. The Pluto-South Node conjunction doesn't guarantee that he would have done it, but makes it way more likely and it shows that there's a karmic link to the two people. So they have a karmic link from past lives and I remember when I looked at the mother's chart as well, she has, I believe her moon is pretty close to Antares, by the way, which again is sort of a belligerent star, but they all kind of have some weird synastry that shows that they've been on opposite sides of the power. They've played power games amongst each other in past lives. There is a lot of karma there. So I don't know the Netflix docuseries. I just went down a rabbit hole during Thanksgiving with that and you know my friend, jen JKUltra, one of I think her first TikTok series was about the JonBenet Ramsey case, so I would actually recommend watching that. I watched all 20 episodes of her series right after the Netflix documentary and her TikTok breakdown was way more interesting and I thought it was interesting that it happened right after Christmas Day.
Speaker 1:I personally believe it was a ritual of some kind and I really believe that If you want to look up sort of the all about the darker side of Christmas, let me find the YouTube video about this. There's a YouTube video that kind of spells out the pagan and other sort of origins of Christmas. It's called Christmas Unveiled by the account on YouTube Mind Unveiled, and you know I've watched this document or I've watched this YouTube videos like two and a half hours. I watched it once last year as well, but I do think that there are ritualistic, darker ritualistic undertones to the Christmas holiday and yeah, I mean I'm not going to get any further into it on this podcast, but I just feel like there was definitely some kind of ritualistic thing going on, but specifically within the family. And again, if you look at the father's chart John Ramsey, he has a very deviant chart and it's really not trustworthy at all. So yeah, I found the documentary to be a little unsettling at sort of how quick they were to defend him, um anyway. So yeah, this is kind of a hodgepodge episode, but hopefully it's fun to just I don't know jump around topics now.
Speaker 1:Right now I'm going to get into some transits. We have some relationship drama at this time because we have venus pluto conjunct opposite mars retrograde. Go check out my sub stack, by the way, to get the horoscope for your sign and see what Mars retrograde means for your sign. But yeah, the relationship drama is playing out. Mars retrograde opposing Venus makes people more competitive, more confrontational, more assertive in relationships and people are demanding better from their partner or they are considering going solo or maybe they're pursuing somebody. And with the Venus-Pluto conjunction there's like jealousy, paranoia, power dynamics. It's kind of a rough transit. I mean, we're going through a relationship storm right now and you know it's going to last until December 20th.
Speaker 1:I'm not a big fan of when astrologers make these videos about aspects and they say, well, it's just this day, when it's like an exact opposition. So like you might see some astrologers saying, well, it's actually just December 11th when Venus is exactly opposite Mars, but it's like no, you have to use a 10 degree orb for the opposition. So like you're going to feel you might not actually have felt this energy until Venus went into Aquarius, honestly, just because that sort of activated Pluto, but like after that conjunction, like you're still gonna get Venus within a 10 degree orb of Mars all the way through about December 20th or 19th. And I say those dates because you know, even December 17th, 18th, 19th, we have the moon and Leo opposing Venus and conjunct Mars retrograde. So after December 20th, I think that story will ease up, but with Mercury and Sag opposing Jupiter, it's like you know what is.
Speaker 1:What do you truly believe about this person? Or what is your story? Are you being truthful? And also with Venus being values, like partners and friends and business partners are suddenly waking up to like, oh, are we actually connected on, are aligned on our values, like, do we actually care about the same things? So, going back to politics, do we actually share the same politics? Do we share the same opinion about health or healthcare, personal health, whatever it is? That's all under the microscope right now.
Speaker 1:So, yeah, I mean, and in some cases, the Venus-Pluto conjunction can disinter some kind of secret, so some people may suddenly find something out about their partner, their friend, their business partner. Other people will be fighting to make more money, get a promotion to sell. This is a great time to sell, actually, and keep in mind, we have the final moments of the South Node and Libra right now. South Node and Libra is still ongoing until January 11th, but at the closing degrees, in the final moments there, we are learning some final karmic lessons in these key relationships in our life. It doesn't mean you are going to lose the relationship, but you have to just own the truth, be honest about your values, be honest about what you need in a relationship, set boundaries, whatever you have to do. And the final thing I'm going to talk about today is that we are also seeing the end of celebrity worship. So, hours before I started recording this.
Speaker 1:Jay-z has now been accused of SA in sort of collusion with Diddy, and we don't know if these accusations just surfaced a few hours ago. So I need more information about them. You need more information about them. It's too soon to tell, but, you know, if you follow the breadcrumbs, it seems like not that surprising. You also notice that he was born a few weeks after Didier, in the same year, 1969.
Speaker 1:And I think that people who are born in 1969, not everybody, obviously, but some many public figures from 1969, I think are going through a lot of karmic events Because a lot of them have Saturn on their north node right now. And then also the same goes for maybe even more more so for people born in the late 70s. So if you go to like 1978, late 78, early 79, there's celebrities from that time like John Legend who have the South Node in Pisces, like Pink, I believe, or Usher, like there's people who will have Saturn conjunct their South Node either soon or, you know, in the spring next year. And I think some of these figures are also gonna get caught up in this. And yeah, I mean I talked about this two years ago. I mean, again, you should look up the YouTube video I did. I think it's the first live video I ever did on YouTube January 2023.
Speaker 1:I did a whole video about Pluto and Aquarius. I said this is the end of fame, this is AI and politics. All of this shit is coming true now. So you know whether it's Jay-Z or it's somebody else. Obviously you know where there's smoke there's a fire. So, like with Diddy being behind bars, you know he is the tip of the iceberg. So I think what you're going to see over the next couple months, especially while the eclipses start to form in Virgo and Pisces, you know you're going to see oh, this isn't the last thing I'm going to talk about, by the way, I just realized but you're going to see the other dominoes fall and maybe some people don't even really care about it and they should, obviously, because it's a horrendous thing. But I'm just saying that people don't necessarily maybe don't necessarily care that a celebrity is going down, because we're kind of maybe collectively yawning about the whole concept of celebrity.
Speaker 1:I think that the concept of celebrity is kind of passe. I just talk about this a lot because it's my own personal example, but it's like you know, I am just a guy from Minnesota, who you know has built a really interesting life. But, like you know, I reach 80 million people a year on TikTok alone. I mean, that's a lot of people. It's like 1% of the world. But I only say that because it's like fame has jumped the shark Like nobody. Nobody is like owning fame anymore.
Speaker 1:There's not like a singular celebrity, apart from maybe Taylor Swift, who like completely dominates the conversation and the collective psyche. For the most part, you have a long tail of like online creators like me who have 80, a hundred, a hundred plus million people watching them, and it's not a big deal. So it's no longer like something that you wanna brag about or something that makes you special. It's like okay, if you have an interesting story, your video might go viral and you reach 10 million people in one day, and then maybe you don't go viral for another year, but either way, there's a ton of ways to break through. There's a ton of ways I'm not the only one. Tens of ton of ways to break through. There's a ton of ways I'm not the only one. You know, tens of thousands of creators probably have around the same audience I have. I don't know what the exact number is, but it's probably a lot.
Speaker 1:So, yeah, I mean, it diminishes the value of celebrities, like they don't have the shine they used to have. I've talked about this many times with Saturn, when Saturn was retrograde and Neptune was retrograde, but we're seeing not only the allure fall away, but we're literally seeing their moral standing decline. So I think, whether it's Jay-Z or somebody else, again, I feel like there's some people from late 1970s, like John Legend, like Usher, who are also gonna maybe not yet directly roped into this, but there's been, I don't know. I just feel like anyone who's been like closely connected to these people are are probably, um, in a position to be scrutinized. But, yeah, I mean, I, I I just uh think this, this is an ongoing trend.
Speaker 1:So I'm going to, I'm going to track that news story and get back to you on the next episode about it. And finally, we do have the bird flu topic. You know, in the news yesterday they just said that the US or the FDA, or the USDA, I don't know one of these agencies is going to be inspecting milk, you know, on farms because they're tracing bird flu cases to milk. Now They've detected it, especially in raw milk, and, yeah, I think that that story will continue to circulate and it may become a pretty big deal. I think that if there was another pandemic, it probably would happen in mid-March, march 13th, approximately during the lunar eclipse in Virgo.
Speaker 1:But I'm going to just keep tracking that story. But it's very much in the astrology. I mean, saturn and Neptune are in Pisces, so there's a lot of mutable energy in the sky right now, with Jupiter, mercury, saturn, neptune all in mutable signs, so in that modality there's a lot more transmissibility. I'm not trying to scare people. I don't know if it'll actually become a pandemic, might be something else that we don't foresee right now, but it's worth tracking. And yeah, again, but this all goes back to also like the whole story about personal health and like people revisiting how they can sort of prevent illness going forward. But, yeah, I think healthcare, the healthcare industry, will be scrutinized a lot in 2025.
Speaker 1:So, anyways, thank you so much for tuning back in. I know I've been off for many weeks I don't even know how many weeks it's been but again, this is a new season and I think it's really important as a content creator to take a break. Anyways, you know, if you want to be like the people who are creating content still 20 years from now, are the people who allow themselves to take a break from some things in their life. And I've done that and I want it because I want to be around making content in 20 years. I've been relentless. This year I've done a documentary, I've done newsletters galore, I've done videos every day. It's been really rewarding. But it's also like, okay, I need to create balance in my life. Southland and Libra don't get away from the balancing act. So, yeah, I mean, again, I really appreciate your support and I appreciate your support with the sub stack as well.
Speaker 1:And the 2025 horoscopes. Again, I'm really blessed to have so many people downloading the horoscopes and benefiting from them. So, again, over 6,000 people now have a lot of information about 2025 that other people don't have. So why wouldn't you, why wouldn't you just get more information and be ahead of the curve, direct and a little bit more honest on these podcasts Not that I'm concealing things blatantly on them or trying to lie to people, but you know, sometimes I try to toe the line. I'm trying to. I try to reserve some of my opinions for just, I keep some things to myself, naturally, like everybody does on the internet, like you don't want to say so much that you piss somebody off or you alienate some someone, but I think, you know, hopefully today it was a little bit more like oh. So you know, these are some of the things I've been interested in watching on Netflix or these are some of the things that you know that are on Evan's radar. You know, like I don't know, I'm gonna be, I'm gonna kind of give space for this podcast to be a little bit more brazen than some of my other channels. So that's why it's called Astrology Unbound. We're breaking away from I don't know any specific way of doing things. So I hope that's coming across. I hope that's okay with you. Let me know, feel free to email me innerworldsastrology at gmailcom If you have any thoughts on this podcast episode, episode.
Speaker 1:Do you feel like it's right up your alley? Do you feel like it's starting to get a little too opinionated? What do you believe? What do you think? I'm open, I'm open to what you think. But anyways, either way, to be honest with you, I think I'm probably still going to be more brazen on the episodes now. But yeah, I think I'm probably still going to be more brazen on the episodes now. But yeah, I think that this podcast, I want it to have its own unique space in what I do and its own unique space in the astrology podcasting world. There's a lot of astrology podcasts, I know that, but I'm going to make this the number one podcast. That's my goal next year. I want this to be the number one astrology podcast and I think we can get there based on the downloads we were getting in season one. So, yeah, welcome back. I'm Evan Nathaniel Grimm. Download the 2025 horoscopes and yeah, I'll see you next week, take care.
