The world is currently undergoing a massive transformation, foreshadowed by the conjunction of Jupiter and Saturn at zero Aquarius during the winter solstice in December 2020. A few years ago, it seemed impossible to know what this meant or how such a change could occur.
The 2020 pandemic.
It shook all countries in the world, not only because of the deaths, but also because it changed the habits and rhythms of everyone's daily life. Privileged individuals worked from home while the economy was doing well. Others faced much greater dangers as essential workers who had to face the corona virus on a daily basis. Many people simply lost their jobs. A lot of people went hungry and continue to go hungry. The pandemic has triggered the most serious economic crisis in modern history.
Climate
The Jupiter-Saturn conjunction occurs every 20 years, but this one is unique. It marks the beginning of a new 800-year cycle for the Air element and the end of a 200-year cycle for the Earth element. The Earth element cycle corresponded to the era of capitalism and exploitation - some might say rape - of Earth's resources. Who cares about the Air element? We were content with blowing smoke through chimneys, cigarettes, and exhaust pipes. Coal, oil, industrial farming and mass meat production, money, ambition, and greed. We all succumbed to our passion for private property.
The age of air has begun.
It's huge. Consider automobiles. There will be no more exhaust fumes, whether they run on electricity or hydrogen. And the electric grid? Powered by renewable energy, it is decentralized, with each household supplying and receiving energy from the next household. Kind of like an electric version of Skype. We have no idea of the consequences. Do we need to own cars when we can just hop into the nearest car? Accidents or traffic jams? They won't happen because every car will be smarter than its driver. The drivers?
Today, it is almost impossible to breathe in New Delhi. Greenpeace estimates that air pollution kills 50,000 people in this city every year. By 2040, the air will be clean, the sky will be blue, and traffic will flow smoothly and continuously. Every city will have one. In a few years, no company will be able to sell a diesel or gasoline vehicle.
Every polluted area will undergo a transformation that will drastically reduce or eliminate pollution. This doesn't mean that temperatures and sea levels won't rise, but international agreements will allow us to slow down and manage the process.
Russia
Historically, major events in Russia have coincided with Saturn-Neptune conjunctions, which often indicate the state's efforts to alleviate poverty and suffering. Clearly, failures are common. The 36-year cycle of Saturn-Neptune conjunctions begins in 1917 with the Russian Revolution, ends in 1953 with Stalin's death, and concludes in 1989 with the dissolution of the Soviet Union. It doesn't take a genius to understand that the next conjunction will occur in 2025, the year of Putin's official presidency.
Until he amends the constitution to allow for two additional presidential terms beyond that year.
That makes no difference. Putin, who was born on the day of the Saturn-Neptune conjunction in 1953, will step down in 2025-26. The only question is whether the process will be peaceful. The next elections, which will be corrupt as usual, will take place on March 17, 2024, when Saturn is at 11 Pisces and the Sun joins Neptune at 27 Pisces, making the matter hazy. Nevertheless, Putin's progressed Sun will be conjunct his Mars, putting him in a warlike mood.
The Saturn-Neptune conjunction is almost exact in July 2025 at 2 Aries, then Saturn retrogrades and makes its final passage in February 2026 at 0 Aries. This is a fiery spot for such a monumental conjunction, and the shift from Pisces to Aries suggests dissolution and perhaps a violent rebirth. Because the conjunction squares the Sun in Russia's 1991 horoscope, leadership is likely to be completely undermined at that time.
At the same time, Pluto, which has entered Aquarius, joins Russia's Saturn at 5 Aquarius, implying the disappearance of social structures. Pluto is also square Putin's Ascendant, and Uranus is conjunct his Moon in Gemini in his 8th house in the summer of 2026. At that time, popular unrest is likely to overthrow him.

China
While waiting for Pluto's entry into Aquarius, it is clear that it will be a period of significant transformation for China, with its Moon at 3 Aquarius and Ascendant at 5 Aquarius. Uranus enters Gemini and is in trine with Pluto, while Pluto is in conjunction with the Moon and Ascendant. From 2025 to 2029, there will be a total of six of these trines, signaling a significant change in China's social fabric. A wonderful series of major trines occurs with the Sun at 7 Libra and the Moon at 3 Aquarius. As China's Ascendant and MC progress respectively in Gemini and Aquarius, aligning with the Moon and the Sun, it is hard to imagine the country doing anything other than thriving.
Uranus-Pluto Conjunctions
From 2025 to 2028, there will be six rare Uranus-Pluto conjunctions.
On the surface, this seems like a spectacular achievement for China's "Belt and Road" initiative, which is a massive plan to expand Chinese influence worldwide. It is highly likely that China's technological dominance will be established during this period. Already, after witnessing the tragic handling of the pandemic in the United States, the Chinese, young and old, are convinced that their communist country is far superior, while the power of the United States fades.
Nevertheless, a Uranus-Pluto trine has no stabilizing effect. The Moon conjunct China's Ascendant represents the people in power - it is the People's Republic of China - and the people will take power and revolt against autocracy between 2025 and 2029. Although the Sun-Moon trine indicates popular support for the Party, Pluto on the Moon unleashes the concept of proletarian dictatorship. How will this play out with Xi Jinping, who, like Putin, was born on the exact Saturn-Neptune conjunction in 1953? President Xi, like Putin, has had the constitution amended to allow him to retain power indefinitely. His North Node is at 3 Aquarius, exactly on China's Moon, and the Saturn-Neptune conjunction in 2026 squares his Mars in Cancer. As changes sweep through the population, he could lose his grip.
United States
Rumors have it that Donald Trump is preparing for a presidential run in 2024. This will never happen. The alignment of Jupiter, Saturn, and Pluto in Capricorn favors his autocratic and extreme style of governance. But Trump was an aberration, and he was only going to be president for one term. The Jupiter-Saturn conjunction in Aquarius is paving the way for a new socially conscious style of governance that does not suit Trump's narcissism.
Joe Biden's age has fueled speculation that he may not live through the next four years. He will be 82 at the time of the next election. The so-called Tecumseh curse, predicting that all presidents elected in zero years - 1900, 1920, 1940, etc. - would not live to the end of their term, is also intriguing. From 1840 to 1960 (Kennedy's election year), this held true, but Reagan survived an assassination attempt in 1980, and George W. Bush did well. Perhaps the curse was only effective during Saturn-Jupiter conjunctions in Earth signs.
In any case, it is worth looking at Kamala Harris's horoscope to see if there are signs indicating she will rise to power. She has an excellent horoscope for governance, with a full moon conjunct Saturn in Aquarius, so competence, cooperation, and leadership come naturally to her.
When she becomes vice president, her progressed Sun aligns with her Descendant and South Node. This is a strong indicator of a Democratic victory in the elections. The fact that her progressed Mercury is retrograde and conjunct the Sun three years after Biden's presidency is intriguing. Kamala's progressed Sun is also trine her natal Moon at that time. Either she takes over here, or she is designated as the Democratic candidate for the presidency in 2024. Her progressed Sun is exactly sextile Saturn during the November 2024 election.
Here's the situation: between the November election and the January 2025 inauguration, Pluto moves from Capricorn into Aquarius, so the Sun and Pluto are conjunct within one degree in the inauguration chart. This could lead to the election of a Black president. (During Obama's presidency, Pluto's transit was conjunct Venus, Jupiter, and the Sun of the United States). It's not a sure thing, but it's not impossible. Since the electoral map contains a Moon-Venus conjunction in Sagittarius, a woman with foreign ancestry could be among the candidates.
The emphasis on Aquarius will lead to an increase in implants, especially in the brain, particularly after Pluto enters Aquarius. Robots and cyborgs will be everywhere, whether you like it or not, and devices will enhance the human body and mind.
The financial system
People think that universal basic income is a utopian concept, but the pandemic triggered the first mass experiment in universal basic income when governments - including those of the United States - distributed money to large segments of the population. The transit of Uranus in Taurus, as well as the tectonic shifts affecting national economies in 2021 and 2022 during the collision between Saturn and Uranus, will cause massive reconstruction.
