NEWS BEFORE THE NEWS
U.S. PREDICTIONS FOR 2021

Three methods will be used to describe the trends for the United States in 2021: the Presidential Inauguration chart, President Joe Biden’s horoscope, and a look at the Declaration of Independence chart using my Diurnal-Planet-for-a-Year direction (DPY). This amazing direction method is fully explained in my book Your Cosmic Oracle.

PRESIDENTIAL INAUGURATION

The Inauguration chart is rather impressive suggesting 2021 will be a time of major transformative events. The Sun (the president) is joined with Saturn and Jupiter, a sign that Biden will unite the parties, steady the reins of government, boost the economy, and propose sensible legislation. However, this stellium in Aquarius is square the Moon, Mars and Uranus. This suggests danger to the president from sudden death or assassination, civil unrest, and considerable resistance to his policies from a large segment of the population. The president’s policies, or those of Kamala Harris if Biden is struck down, will be daring, progressive, and even radical at times furthering the flames of fear and distrust seeded by Trump.

Mercury is at eastern elongation indicating the press will follow Biden closely. The administration will take the lead in supporting education, encouraging the auto and transportation industries to revamp, and give new direction and aid for a business revival. These efforts will be challenging but not unachievable.

Uncertainty and widespread unemployment will continue in the hospitality, entertainment, and art industries but opportunities will develop for expansion during the year. A dreamy, idealistic approach will be taken by the administration in forging treaties and new agreements with foreign nations. Many unknowns plague the financial system but hopeful signs of a recovery will lift American spirits. The Covid-19 vaccines will be a success inspiring more social gatherings and a happier nation overall. Expect more states to legalize marijuana as laws on the national level are loosened.

In spite of the good news reported above, there are ominous celestial omens rising this year. Civil unrest may skyrocket with increased crime, violence, and sudden mass shootings. Protests will intensify and widespread defiance to government mandates and laws are likely. The police and the military will be reformed. Progressive gun control measures will provoke anger and stubborn resistance. The airline industry does not recover to pre-pandemic levels this year. The auto industry both agrees to some and resists other new measures designed to spur development of electric vehicles and curtail CO2 emissions.

The stock market will grow substantially during the year but suffer a major downturn in the third quarter of the year. Water related problems, new water regulations, and water as a commodity are likely, especially in the West. Financial assistance and new plans for agriculture signal a rebirth in the food sector although the livestock industry is likely in for a big shock. Food will continue to be a source of desperate concern for millions of people. Renewable energy is high on the list this year and a push for a major infrastructure plan will see the light of day. Climate change measures will face strong public and industrial resistance. The routine lives of Americans turns around, partly due to the after-effect of the pandemic and also due to a tragedy or loss affecting nearly everyone.

2021 is a tumultuous year of change, a critical turning-point year for the United States. Government policy will be revamped and in this wake there will be great discontent, even rebellion. With the end of the pandemic comes a time of great transition, welcomed by some and resisted by others. Fate is upon us.

President Biden’s Forecast for 2021

The president’s transits and directions shed much light on the course of the nation. 2021 will be an unusual and exceptional year; many breakthroughs and technological achievements will crown this year besides the herculean achievement of developing, testing, manufacturing and delivering several Covid-19 vaccines to everyone around the world in record breaking time. My DPY direction indicates that Biden is in the 9-year Moon phase of his life, a time when health, home and family, and the people of the nation are emphasized. The Moon/Jupiter square in Biden’s horoscope is a sign of his influence and recognition at this time. His current 79th year is a Uranus year. Progressive changes and radical departures from the policies of Trump are sure to take place. Uranus is setting in the traditional 6th house of health. It opposes his Sun and in conjunction with Saturn; strong indicators of possible sudden health issues. The position of Uranus on the Descendant is furthermore a sign of progressive ideas coming his way through his staff, fellow Democrats in Congress, and influential citizens. The Uranus position also implies defiant resistance from political rivals and quickly enacted treaties, agreements, and pacts with foreign nations. Uranus certainly declares that 2021 will be a radical departure from conservatism.

Biden will face difficulties with allies and competitors, hostile nations, and in forging agreements with Republicans. Economic reform will be much on his mind but new financial shocks will rock the year. Success for Biden in his first year hinges on his team and how well he can broker agreements with political advisories and foreign nations. His agenda will be bold, promising to improve the lives of others and redirect the nation toward modernization.

Transits to Biden’s chart pinpoint several important, critical months during the year. The first comes in January when he assumes office and reverses many Trump executive orders and perhaps issues several of his own. The economy will be foremost on his agenda, fighting Covid-19, and moves to mitigate global warming among others. It will be a broad and extensive policy initiative.

At the time of the inauguration transiting Jupiter forms an opposition to Biden’s Pluto while transiting Mars does the same – the peaks of this double Plutonian period are 1/19 and 1/21 respectively. If this sign of extreme transformation were not enough transiting Pluto is opposite his Jupiter peaking on the 29th.

The grand vision for his first year in office continues into February when Biden faces a set of monthly transits to his Pluto both peaking on the 17th! Two days later transiting Neptune crosses his Lower Culmination (4th house cusp) signally trouble regarding his son, disclosure of illegalities, and generally uncertain and unstable conditions. This could be a difficult time for him health-wise or through the undermining of his presidency by conspirators. The nation will be at a critical point regarding the consequences of the pandemic, especially joblessness, foreclosures and evictions, and an overwhelmed healthcare system. Bad policies or missteps this month can haunt his term. February may turn out to be his most difficult month in 2021.

Biden will deliver strong leadership and initiatives in March and especially April winning him approval and quite a lot of success going into May. June is very Martian and strong; the initiatives started before the end of June must now be nursed forward in the face of strong headwinds. Transits favor his success but there will be delays, pullbacks and the need to reconsider options. August is a time of important preparatory steps advancing his prime initiatives.

October and November are challenging with more transits to his natal Pluto and Mars hinting at violence, bold action, and even new gun control measures if not enacted earlier (June perhaps).

December is a gleaming success when Biden’s popularity will be at an all-time high.

This is what I had to say about the election in last years prediction:

The transits at the time of the election are equally telling. Transiting Saturn opposes Trump’s natal Venus 10/21 with Mars opposite Jupiter 10/26. These are strong indicators of support from his base and a possible win; they are declining in strength though with the opposition to Jupiter likely over by the time of the election. The strongest transit at the time of the election is Jupiter opposing his natal Saturn 11/18 with Venus close behind but not peaking until the 28th. Saturn is the big player here. The election may therefore be close, with Trump still losing because he has alienated (Moon/Uranus) many independent and moderate Democrats and Republicans that voted for him in 2016. He will likely claim the election a fraud – rigged – if he losses and contest it to the bitter end.

JULY 2020 – JULY 2021 is a Jupiter year for the United States based on my DPY direction. Big policies and big money is at stake. Previous Jupiter years brought the establishment of the Federal Reserve, the 16th Amendment income tax, radical Republicans and reconstruction after the Civil War, and the rise of the Ku Klux Klan. A restructuring of our financial system may be necessary in order to cope with the pandemic after-effects. Taxes will rise on the wealthy and corporations. Other more draconian financial ideas, like those of the past, could also come about. A reconstruction effort, so to speak, in the form of a massive infrastructure project aimed at creating jobs is not out of the question. After the election, the party holding the majority will have tremendous political clout and will use it to advance wages, resuscitate the hospitality industry, improve trade and treaty obligations, cement ties with foreign nations, and increase commerce generally. There will be much optimism and promise for an economic turnaround.

2020 is a pivotal year for the United States as it marks the beginning of a new 9-year Pluto phase in the DPY direction. This long Pluto period is especially significant in 2020 and 2021 because transiting Pluto, along with Jupiter and Saturn, will go over Pluto in the U.S. chart. The colossal impact of these configurations dovetailing with the DPY 9-year Pluto phase indicates an extreme reversal of political policies, a transformation of industry and commerce with renewable energy in mind, a wider and wise use of the internet and its capabilities, and a greater push toward space development and exploration. The risks are mighty. The Covid-19 pandemic – a Saturn/Pluto phenomenon – is closely tied to the Pluto conjunction. The virus will continue to do damage to the lives of individuals and the economy until a vaccine is ready – and Pluto indicates that a vaccine and better treatments methods will save the day.

In the U.S. chart Pluto is in opposition with Mercury. The news media has been ruthlessly attacked, disinformation is rampant on the internet, and political tribes have never been more divided. This tipping point could go on to transform society as previously mentioned or tear us further apart as a people, a republic, and a viable economy. Another significant set of developments related to this aspect is cyber theft. Russia and China are both trying to steal Covid-19 research along with other coveted, sensitive information. Russia has been caught red-handed laundering money in Great Britain and attempting to influence politicians. They will intensify efforts to meddle in our elections and pass disinformation into the media to stir civil unrest and sow the seeds of doubt in our political system. Increased use of surveillance in this country will be another likely result of Pluto as some cities opt to replace the police with private departments and enhanced surveillance equipment. Expect major cyber-attacks by Russia, China, Iran or other sophisticated teams that can steal top secrets and harm vital U.S. assets.

Genetic engineering will go beyond agriculture and health applications and enter the insect world after ethical and environmental concerns are ironed out. Cornell University has just recently concluded a positive test on genetically modifying diamondback moths that do extensive damage to eatable crops; expensive doses of chemical pesticides are required each year to combat them. Another genetically modified insect project with enormous health and economic rewards is also in the works. The federal EPA has approved a plan by a British biotech company to release a billion genetically modified mosquitoes in the Florida Keys and, next year, Texas. Imagine no mosquitoes. But what of the bats and birds and other mammals that eat them?

The Pluto 9-year period is based on the Sibly chart of the United States with the birth time adjusted to EST. If the original Sibly 10:10 pm birth time was meant to be Philadelphia time and not GMT then a new 9-year Uranus phase begins in 2020. This period would mark a time of great disturbance, protests and riots, and progressive economic, educational, and foreign affair programs.
