unless it’s conjunct an angle, it’s probably not doing much! Or conjunct a personal planet, though I find the effect of fixed stars conjunct planets to be less than the angles. Also, fixed stars have really tight orbs - like max one degree
Very interesting, thank you Mel. When he was Governor of the Bank of England, he seemed the epitome of faceless technocrat. Looks are deceiving. Win or lose; Algol on the ascendant tells us he is the man of the moment and will have a big 'surprise' impact on the story over the next two months.
Oh, good observation! I can't believe I missed that. I think I was too focused on Trump's Ascendant conjunct Regulus, ha!
Trump has Uranus exactly on his MC right now and there's a lot of tension around that, like nervous fear/anticipation (depending on your perspective) that it might take him out - especially combined with Mars on his natal Saturn-Venus. If I was his personal astrologer I'd be advising him to avoid public places for a while. But he's also eclipse-born, so he seems to just skate by these life-threatening events.
Wow! Awesome deep-dive in Carney, Mel. Lots of insight into the character of the man, and into how things might play out for him (and for us besieged Canadians) in the coming months. Will be following your additional election posts with great astrological interest! Thank you for your post.
I really enjoy your articles. This was such a great and in depth analysis! Never heard of Algol. Gotta check where it sits in my chart 👀

Interesting! I looked it up and my Algol is 25 degrees Taurus, conjunct Mars at 24 degrees in Taurus in 5th house…
I’m actually eying your consultations and will def treat myself for my bday in June 🙂 looking forward to a deep dive!
Thanks for your reply!
Ooh, a mars-Algol conjunction is definitely spicy!

Yeah I’ve heard that from a few sources now. It fits that Algol rising, just a relentless pursuit of power.
Fascinating!
I’m wondering what all this Algol energy means - I notice Trump has his MC conjunct Algol…

Thank you! I believe I have you to thank for pointing me towards Carney's birth announcement. So grateful!
