A Birthday New Moon 2025 for Joe Biden!

by Jude Cowell, partisan for the common good

As former President Joseph Biden nears his 83rd birthday (plus, his Uranus Return/s 3 times: June 2026 into March 2027), and a three-fer Jupiter Return beginning soon on November 6, 2025 into 2026, the following assortment of horoscopes may be of interest - if not personally for Mr. Biden, then for our nation since as a POTUS goes, so goes America.

Recent news is that his course of radiation therapy has been successfully completed!

So first you see President Biden's natal chart (November 20, 1942; center) surrounded by his "Birthday New Moon" 2025 Horoscope doing the work of a transit chart:

Then below is a second bi-wheel image with Mr. Biden's current Jupiter Return of June 24, 2014 surrounded by the first of three upcoming Jupiter Returns perfecting on November 8, 2025. As you see, his second and third Returns are listed on the chart along with Jupiter's Sabian Symbol (26 Cancer).

Also listed are Notes about additional transits on November 8, 2025 such as Mars opposing his natal Uranus (2Sag44 vs 2Gem46) and tr Mars opposing 2014 Venus (2Sag44 vs 00Gem47 - where tr Uranus has been hitting of late and suggesting separation in relationships):

And last but certainly not least, is Joe Biden's Solar Return 2025 Horoscope which perfects the morning of November 19th instead of the 20th, and with his Sun in the publicly visible 10th house of Career and Public Status. A Solar Return Moon in Scorpio suggests the health issues he's been dealing with, and there may be a sense of relief; medical personnel may enter his domestic sphere for a regimen of therapy or rehabilitation.

A few partial astro-notes are penned on the chart for the curious reader, and we should mention that his first natal planet to rise in the Return chart is his natal 5th house Moon @00Tau59, with the Moon symbolizing the physical body for both males and females:

Astrology: No Kings Protest October 18, 2025

by Jude Cowell, partisan for the common good

This Saturday October 18, 2025 the second No Kings Day protests will occur around the country (and the globe!) with a variety of starting times. As a representative, the horoscope shown below is a noon chart set for Washington DC. 20Sag59 rises with the Moon/North Node midpoint of spiritual connections, along with asteroid Icarus.

Conjunct the Mercury-Mars Conjunction in Scorpio is Nemesis - determined to restore karmic balance to long overdue justice in our nation. Divine retribution is indicated.

And with ethical Jupiter exalted in Cancer acting as chart-and-protest ruler (in DC), his applying aspects include trines to the Saturn-Neptune pair, and a challenging opposition to powerful Pluto. Perhaps financial manipulation will become involved at some point as leverage.

Then at the foundational IC of the chart is Mars-ruled Aries and on the image I've notated a potential for the Insurrection Act of 1807 to be invoked by using the massive yet peaceful No Kings protests as "justification" to use military troops as law enforcement against the American people. So please beware of "plants" who may commit violent acts in order to instigate upheaval, thus providing a fearful White House with the fodder it so desperately desires:

Yet after all, Americans rallying against the oppression of kings - what could be more patriotic than that?

US Mercury Returns 2025 and 2026

by Jude Cowell, partisan for the common good

Those who've spent time with America's July 4, 1776 Horoscope are cognizant of our national Mercury @24Can11 and its intriguing Sabian Symbol, "A Leader of Men Wrapped in An Invisible Mantle of Power." And with 1776 Pluto opposing US Mercury, surveillance, subversion, and other secretive issues and concerns are par for the course around here, and always have been. As we know, manipulative Pluto issues orders from afar and grabs all the power he can for his extreme wealth hidden in secret places is never enough.

Why, in the 2025 Horoscope shown below, Pluto in Aquarius (technocrats) is apex planet in one of the YOD patterns with the Mars-Jupiter sextile at its base; therefore, a certain rich fellow's name has been added for he ruthlessly leads the action. Of course, you're welcome to disagree! Especially since mundane Pluto can easily symbolize groups of manipulators and organizations even though The Invisible One prefers to work alone in isolation, as we know. Ivory tower and all that.

Yes, plutocrats prefer that their identities and actions stay hidden, but ours? Not so much. After all, knowledge is power - and control.

So as it turns out in 2025 - when it comes to surveillance, finances, and other Plutonian power-grabbing issues, everyone's personal data is up for grabs, not the least of which has already been pilfered under technocrat El*n M*sk's teenaged "DOGE" boys - and by other foreign actors as well, ongoing. So we're having to accept it that, Big Bro is in the house, and the ultimate consequences for regular folk are unpredictable at best. Sadly, we're in a world of thieves, traffickers, and other criminals via Neptune-Pluto underworld figures and their associates, with headquarters now run from a scofflaw White House.

And so considering that the realms of Mercury the messenger include a plethora of things such as children, education, thinking and planning, the senses, trade, commerce, travel, and all forms of communications (exs: lies, deceit, gossip), let's take a look at America's Mercury Return of June 22, 2025, and for 2026 which will perfect three times beginning June 22, 2026 - near Summer Solstice both years.

Since both Mercury Returns perfected on June 22, I've placed the Returns on the same page, dual image style. First, you see a tidier version of the charts, then the same dual images with way too many of my study notes scribbled upon them. (My notes are intended for the more daring reader.) Then mention should be made that each year, when Mercury returns to its 1776 degree, any aspects it made in 1776 are repeated, applying or separating. Naturally, this is the case with all planetary returns.

Images: US Mercury Return 2025 (lower left) and US Mercury Return 2026 number 1 0f 3; 2 and 3 are listed on the chart (upper right):

As you see above, the 2025 Return Horoscope contains YOD crisis patterns denoting turning points and karmic opportunities, and it's safe to say that We the People (and the rest of the world) are experiencing precisely what is shown in the 2025 chart as the year lurches along through violence, fanaticism, vigilantism, and the sadistic brutality that we see in the news everyday. Under Tr*mp. Did I mention it's all happening under his heftiness?

Now here are the exact same charts with my study notes added:

Be advised that the radix chart used to calculate these returns is the July 4, 1776 5:09 pm LMT Philadelphia, PA horoscope; naturally you should use whichever data you prefer. jc
