What Is Going on? Kings or No Kings? June 14th Protests
/I watched with interest last weekend as 2,000 (?) “peaceful” protests around the country celebrated not The United States Army’s 250th birthday (first called the Continentals), nor President Trump’s birthday, nor Flag Day, nor the Battle of Bunker Hill, but what? It seems to me that the protests were about not wanting a “King” as President.
But the funny thing is that President Trump, born June 14th 1946 in Queens has Leo rising. Leo is the sign best embodied by the lion, with his glorious mane who as king of the forest or savanna, demands respect, is the center of attention, and is loved and feared by all those creatures surrounding him in his domain.
He protects and serves his tribe; No one is more fierce than a lionesse who protects her cubs nor her mate, a lion who protects and defends the whole pride, defending the territory from encroaching or rival males.
Not only that, but in Trumps natal horoscope he has Mars, the planet of our aggression and courage, conjunct the ascendent near the “Royal Star” Regulus, being on the ascendent means Mars and Regulus are operating at 100%.
Regulus is one of the 4 Royal stars of Persia. Each of theses 4 stars are special, and according to Astrologer Bernadette Brady, an authority on Fixed Stars, brings a unique life journey and lessons. Each star gives power and promises success, but only if you can deal with the particular hurdles that will be placed on front of you, called a nemesis.
Regulus’ promise when strongly placed in the natal horoscope, is power, success, and ambition fulfilled, but only as long as revenge, its nemesis is avoided. Its position in the Heart of the Lion, is the brightest star in the Leo constellation, and if you are lucky to be up after sunset tonight and looking west you will see Mars and Regulus conjunct. Mars is red and Regulus is blueish. This is the star pattern that Trump has in his natal chart and occurs every 2 years when Mars is in late Leo.
As this configuration is occurring on his birthday and in his solar return, it will be very prominent in the whole year ahead until his next birthday. Other years when this has occurred give clues as to what expect this year.
The first time this occurred after his birthday in 1946, was 1978 which was pivotal. Trump was transitioning from working with his father in their Brooklyn and Queens real estate projects, into his becoming a major Manhattan developer with the redevelopment of the Commodore Hotel into the Grand Hyatt New York.
June 21 1993 also saw Mars on Regulus which was a turning point as he was involved with lots of financial restructing focusing on financual survival due to NYC’s depression at that time. He was also navigating personal changes as preparing to marry (December 20 1993) Marla Maples who was pregnant with their first child born October 13th.
Look forward to watching and witnessing the Lion and Regulus, as embodied in all its manifestations in President Trump.
