The Fourth Turning Theory Lines Up Perfectly With An Astrological Event

This is a different type of post than I usually bring up because astrology is usually viewed as bullshit for the straight forward logical types that are attracted to TBP.

A couple of years ago I started working in cryptocurrencies to have first hand experience studying this new form of money and to see if it lines up with current economic theories. What I discovered were it’s broader implications within physics and the laws of nature. In my opinion, a lot of people misunderstand money and make mistakes regarding monetary theory because they overlook the basic function behind money itself. Money is a physical representation used as an energy exchange. This is fundamental in working within cryptocurrencies at the moment considering cryptos are the first money created and sustained by electricity.

Over the past two years I started to read more about physics. Primarily the fundamental natural laws from Newton and how Einstein thought about physics and energy. After sometime, I started looking into more abstract ideas about energy based off astronomy and started reading about astrology.

Ancient civilizations spent a few thousand years looking towards the sun, stars, and planets for answers. In this time they came up with stories based on patterns of the seasons, moon phases, and planet rotations. They also created stories to simplify their understanding and came up with Gods/Rulers of these planets and their special characteristics explained as human characteristics.

In the past year I’ve been observing various planetary cycles. I started with paying attention to the lunar cycle and understanding the lunar calendar. Pretty simple stuff. Then I started paying attention to the planets rotations, their characteristics, and their retrogrades.

Until recently it’s just been a hobby and entertainment for me. What piqued my interest is it takes Uranus 84 years to rotate around the sun. The Fourth Turning is also a roughly 80 year cycle, it’s pattern and most destructive phase lines up perfectly with the characteristics of the Uranus transit. Beginning in May 2018 Uranus will enter the sign of Taurus which is the sign that rules money.

Uranus is in each astrological sign for roughly 8 years and it takes on the characteristics of each of those signs. When it’s in Taurus it takes on the characteristics of revolution and money.

I found an article by an astrologer about the event and it reads as if Neil Howe could’ve written it himself:

The cycle itself, kicking off from May 2018, will be volatile, move very quickly and leave us with our jaws on the floor. Yet – we are also going to see the storm building in a small, slow way in April and May 2017. This is rather like watching storm clouds being charged – we will be able to gaze about 12 months into the future and see how things are already tingling. We’ll feel those electrons. In fact, conditions for a perfect world economic storm will build.

The last time Uranus was in Taurus was 1934-1942:

It’s been about 80 years since we saw Uranus in Taurus the sign of the bull. How does astrology predict the future? By drawing on the past. Unlike mainstream time, astrology time is circular. It’s not linear. Astrologers know history repeats.

On June 6th 1934, Uranus entered Taurus (the sign which rules currency, the economy and banking), remaining there until October 9th. This gives us a fair idea of what to expect from this new cycle.

 Uranus then re-entered Taurus on March 27th, 1935 and remained there until August 7th 1941 (the Second World War). There was one final move back into Taurus from October 4th 1941, ending on May 15th 1942. These were the years immediately after the Wall Street Crash, which coincided with the Great Depression – and then the rationing and austerity of the war.

Another interesting context is the rotation of Pluto within this cycle. It takes Pluto 248 years to rotate around the Sun. The effects of Pluto’s characteristics line up with the last Fourth Turning that brought about the American and French Revolutions:

…Of course, Uranus in Taurus (revolution and money) comes alongside first Saturn and Pluto in Capricorn, then Jupiter and Ceres – all across Christmas 2017 through 2020. Capricorn rules Prime Ministers and Presidents, Royalty and Chief Executives. It rules the people at the top of business and government.

Saturn and Pluto is going to give these people the toughest cycle in 240+ years, but why? One has to suspect that there will be class action lawsuits against them. There may be jail sentences. Saturn cycles are hard – you have to choose between a rock and  hard place when they come. Pluto transforms everything, forever. Do you remember The Panama Papers? That was not the end of the story. There may also be a big push against corporations by large groups of individuals. You’d have to suspect massive legal reform affecting corporations, governments and even the democratic process once it’s all over by 2020…

Uranus In Taurus along with Pluto’s rotation has theme revolving around freedom:

Uranus in Taurus asks you ‘How are you not free, when it comes to money? When it comes to houses and apartments?’ Classically when Uranus lands in a new sign, people realise they had no idea, just how trapped they were. It’s rather like the familiarity of life under lock and key. Until the door opens you become habitually used to confinement. Uranus in Taurus from May 2018 will first shock us, then – over a number of years – show us very clearly, just how ‘free’ we were not.

Freedom for you may revolve around credit card debt, or mortgage debt, or the tax system. Perhaps it’s about the impossibly high price of houses or apartments, where we live (or even where we were born). London is a case in point. Sydney is a case in point. New York is a case in point.  One thing is sure. If you put this question to any group of people in your world, you’ll see the tension. No system which keeps the majority down, ever lasts on a Uranus transit. This is a storm cloud building. When Uranus finally moves into Taurus, the rebellion will begin. There will be moments from 2018-2026 when the Storming of the Bastille looks like a tea party.

We associate Uranus with the French Revolution, the Industrial Revolution and the American Revolution, because he was found in 1781, a key year for those events. We’re going to see a global Banking Revolution, Economic Revolution and Currency Revolution from 2018. It will start small, go away for a while, then come back even more powerfully, as Uranus moves into Taurus, out, then back in again. These are basic astrology rules. Uranus needs tools, though. New inventions. We will see a huge push here, using new technology. Even our experimental use of mobile phones and digital currency in 2017 could look rather quaint and old-fashioned after 2020.

For the rest of the article…

Side note: Considering I appreciate the irony, Uranus was discovered by Sir William Herschel in 1781 and it was officially recognized as a planet that same year. The name was not made official for another 70 years and Hershel initially name the planet Georgium Sidus (George’s Star) in honor of King George III. He explained:

In the fabulous ages of ancient times the appellations of Mercury, Venus, Mars, Jupiter and Saturn were given to the Planets, as being the names of their principal heroes and divinities. In the present more philosophical era it would hardly be allowable to have recourse to the same method and call it Juno, Pallas, Apollo or Minerva, for a name to our new heavenly body. The first consideration of any particular event, or remarkable incident, seems to be its chronology: if in any future age it should be asked, when this last-found Planet was discovered? It would be a very satisfactory answer to say, ‘In the reign of King George the Third’.

A couple of years later King George III lost the American colonies due to a revolutionary war.

Correlations aren’t half the problem when it comes to astrology. My limited experience tells me that the number of “astrological readings/predictions” you get corresponds exactly with how many astrologers you ask. Ask two, you get two different ones. Ask 20,000, you get 20,000. The only time this varies is if you get a hesitant or indecisive astrologer and then you get more than one.

I quit giving “astrology” much credence about 25 years ago when I discovered some interesting facts. First, there are actually 13 astrological signs of the zodiac, not twelve. The zodiac that most follow was invented in the late 19th century to assist with newspaper sales. Some zodiac signs are as short as 8 days because of their size or verticality and others almost 2 full months because the system is horizontal in relation to the Earth/sun alignment which determines the astrological sign behind it. I was born in early April and thought myself an Aries most of my life and then saw that the true alignment made early April still in alignment with Pisces… And of course there’s that whole pesky 13th zodiac sign, the serpent, that was omitted completely,… just some info FWIW

I’ve called your pieces puffery in the past, but I’m 100% with you on this one. A lot of people have a hard time grasping the concept of rhythms bigger than those on the radio.

In particular… one way to look at the planetary “influence” is instead to consider that they have settled into those orbits (for now) due to larger/more subtle rhythms/tides. So it’s not so much that Jupiter, etc. itself is doing the influencing, but that the larger environment which has led to Jupiter being what it is and where it is permeates everything going on.

Iska –

“Hypothesis”, dammit, not “theorem”!

No, it is not directly testable – I give you that.

“Correlation does not equal causality.” – I will give other commenters that as well. It’s the first rule we learned (back when the earth was cooling) in doing verifiable/refutable scientific research. However, open your mind to the fact that correlation does NOT PRECLUDE causality. Further, try to recognize the damage done by the Enlightenment, as is understood in today’s Reader’s Digest version of it – that one has to prove a logical connection to opine in public that a connection exists. Were that true, most science from the day of Faraday on would never have been done.

I am an extreme INTJ, at the extreme right corner of the usual chart – a “Driver, Driver”. I proudly admit it. (Staff at “corporate” back in the day wanted me to take “advanced adaptation” training. Never happened, but I did figure out how better to deal with the rest of the world.)

But! If there is NO influence then someone needs to explain to me HOW and WHY, every freakin’ time I showed up for duty as a “float” nursing assistant, I got sent to the ER when it was a full moon. (As a “float”, I reported to the Nursing Director for the 900 bed teaching hospital, not a Head Nurse on a floor.) Even after I burned out on ER for a bit and settled down to floor work, I got pulled to ER on full moons just because I was trained for the tsunami of shite that generally came in the door then.

Full moons brought out three types of oddities as I can easily recall:

1) People acting completely 180 degrees from “normal”. Teetotalers getting the urge to get juiced and drive at 100 mph on Chicago streets. Skilled industrial workers creating some of the most unusual & horrific circumstances for workplace accidents. (“Hey, what will it do if I hold (not drop) this belt grinder next to my femoral?” Or, my personal favorite – “I’m suspended 10 inches above two 440V terminals, I wonder what they would do to my 20″ long box wrench?”) Trust me, it ain’t pretty. In a fever, the image of over 40 years ago can easily surface.

2) People of usually marginal mental balance going completely bonkers. OD’s were big – coke, smack, Phenergan (or Benadryl) & Vodka shots. (Yep, it was the 70’s.) Suicides jumped – consummated or attempted.

3) Panic! These we called GOMERS (Get Out of My Emergency Room Stat). Too numerous to count but a couple of examples for context.

– “Mom” presents a 3-yr old male with a blood blister on the tip of his pee-pee. (too young to call it a “pecker”)

“What happened?” is our question.

“Well, he was peeing in the toilet and the lid fell down on it.”

When did this happen?

“About 4 pm”

So now it’s midnight and you think it’s urgent?

– Also a common “midnight marvel”… flu, cold, noro or other food poisoning sufferer would show up after having had acute symptoms for 12 – 24 hours.

There’s something there. I do not pretend to know what it is but I don’t diss what I don’t understand.

PS to Stephanie – a worthy submission IMHO, thank you!

Points taken. When I used to deliver pizza in the hood, we noticed that people did more crazy shit on full moons. That could be attributable to moonlight making people want to go out, hang out, drink up, etc. I’m not sure that a full moon obscured by clouds correlates to people acting up. People with certain zodiac signs do seem to have common traits. Pisces people seem different than Scorpios, but that could relate to seasons. People born in winter in northern climes often have vitamin D deficiency that correlates to higher rates of schizophrenia. Stucky is a Pisces from the north, and that fucker’s crazy.

Iska –

In my experience, whether the full moon was brightly visible or completely obscured made absolutely no difference.

I should make clear that I don’t remember those nights as being busier in the sense of more admissions per shift (quantitative). It was qualitative aspect of the individual admits. I have laid out the crazy/stupid stuff above but there was often something else, the inexplicable.

That is where a patient gets in and the next few hours of treatment and their reaction to it was just out of the ordinary. Thinking “sucking chest wound” getting better beyond expectation in an hour or so. Then the person who walks in with an easily treatable inner ear infection, is treated, and less than two hours later we’re resuscitating and intubating them because that minor infection just blew up into encephalitis.

In finishing, I have to say that I see a higher rate of crazy, everywhere, all the time now. Clients are becoming almost unmanageable swinging between self-destructive behavior (for their business) and almost complete passivity in the face of emerging challenges.

I had chalked it up to lower quality food, little exercise, too many meds. Steph’s posting has given me another reason to consider.

I believe astrology explains perhaps 1% of what happens. The primary influence is on the fluids in the human body. In the womb, lunar and solar effects on amniotic fluid exert mildly differing forces that may affect the temperament of a developing fetus as its nervous system develops.

Once born, the full moon effect has a slightly increased pull on the fluids in the body, perhaps over-stimulating the nervous systems of susceptible individuals.

However, the predictive value of the various sun signs is compromised because the astrological calendar does not fully take into account the movement of the sun through space over extended periods of time. For example, you may be a Leo now, but 150 years ago, you might have been a Taurus…

All in all, astrology can be fun if not taken too seriously, and one stays in when the moon is full!

— “Could you explain your theorem of the means by which planets influence us?”

My proposal was specifically that the planets don’t influence us. Instead that the planets are visible representations of the bigger environmental conditions which *do* carry influences on us. Those influences would be extremely subtle on the individual level but in aggregate will result in “tides” of human behavior.

Think of the Planets being similar to the foam in this video.

Let’s say that the Milky Way galaxy is being attracted to a nearby galaxy. This will cause every single item in the Milky Way to be pulled along the “stream” in the direction of the nearby galaxy. That is one influence that will be “tugging” on everything. Now step down each step and you have rhythms of influence as sub-sections of the Milky Way move around all the way down to the earth and a person’s relative position to the Earth’s gravity.

This is speaking in terms of gravity, but there are other factors (exposure to radiation/blocked from radiation), and every other pattern of energy movement/density that we know about and don’t yet know about.

This means that there are “tides” from the biggest to the smallest scale and we are going to be products of those tides all the way down to our emotional state. *Some* of those influences will also be reflected in the equilibrium planets have reached which results in them being physical indicators of underlying patterns. Jupiter is Jupiter and is where it is because of the aggregate culmination of all sorts of variables and the current stable rhythm is able to be as stable as it is because the “river” is flowing consistently. However just like a river goes up and down… some parts appear to change little, others which are more sensitive (shorelines… human emotions) will fluctuate in manners which in aggregate have a recognizable consistency but extremely difficult to predict with precision.

Complete absolute bullshit. The combined gravitational effects of ALL the planets is completely cancelled out by a few dozen cubic meters of earth under your feet.
It’s called the inverse square law.

Gravitational effect of celestial bodies on your own body

Other “mysterious” forces? It’s like the author of the linked piece says-

“Maybe there is something like a ‘psychic force’ that only relates to beings with consciousness, and it’s really special because we don’t know how to measure it.
Sure. Whatever”.

— “The combined gravitational effects of ALL the planets is completely cancelled out by a few dozen cubic meters of earth under your feet.”

“Completely cancelled out” is nonsense. You are conflating the most relevant gravitational effect in terms of predicting motion with ALL gravitational effects.

It’s very simple. In the following example you have three bodies, with size indicating mass, with the period drifting toward the O and the o having a velocity that is moving it away from the .

O . o

Everything living on the period is dominated by the gravity of the period. However, the period, and *everything on it* are being gravitationally pulled toward the O. They are *also* being pulled on by the o, but not enough to override the pull toward the O or to pull them off of the .

To say they are “completely cancelled out” is an obscene misrepresentation. The . would be drifting faster toward the O if the o did not exist. It may not be by much but it is having an influence.

Furthermore, gravity was used as an illustration for looking at the aggregate totality of the environment and how the aggregate effects create the final *visual* results we observe and measure.

— “Other “mysterious” forces?”

Yes, such as I mentioned via Radiation being shielded from or pulled toward our environment. The atmosphere shields us from the Sun and depending on the circumstance shields from more or less. Other larger bodies shield/attract larger events coming from outside of our solar system as well.

It wasn’t that long ago that we had no clue how much the atmosphere protects us from what is flying around in space coming straight from the sun.

I’m not talking about a psychic force, I’m talking about something no more complex than Bees being sensitive to quantum level effects and that influencing their behavior.

http://discovermagazine.com/1997/nov/quantumhoneybees1263

You’re anti-science if you think you’ve nailed down all the variables that are affecting how our bodies react (and thus the aggregate behaviors of populations) to subtle fluctuations in the environment that we haven’t documented the relationships for yet.

planet’s cycles are very apt. Don’t let the jokes bring you down.

In an earlier life, I studied astrology quite extensively with regards to economic events. That politics are likewise affected by said events should be obvious to all.

From memory, I had some limited success in forecasting Silver cycles based on the daily transits of the heavenly bodies juxtaposed with the U.S. national chart. Unfortunately, I didn’t have deep enough pockets to actually trade with the concept, but discussed it daily with a local coin broker who was amazed at “edge” that was revealed.

The faster moving bodies were too mercurial for use, and Pluto too slow. Mars & Venus were noticeable, but not carrying enough weight to create a true trend, that is, merely reactive bounces.

But Uranus, Saturn, & Jupiter were the prime movers, Saturn restrictive, Jupiter expansive, and Uranus being sudden, sharp reversals of trend.

I now view it just as you suggest, like seasonal factors that recur and can be used for forecasts.

Also remember that during the 1930s there were alternate periods of boom & bust in the stock markets, including some powerful rallies, followed by the reversals so that we stayed in the trough for about a decade until WWII. Watch Uranus to signal those reversals.

Fun recalling the twists and turns of life!

IF there is any credibility to Strauss’ and Howe’s hypothesis (I find some interesting correlations there but not much generalizability) then you ought to see certain correlations in astrology. Not that the stars, planets and such “influence” our behaviors but, if the cosmos is viewed as a sort of clock/calendar, then regular 80-100 year cycles ought to line up with historical events. Given that the inspiration for generation theory was, according to Strauss and Howe, derived from the ancient concept of the saeculum – it is not a far stretch whatsoever to see parallels between astrology and generational theory.

So it takes 84 years for your anus to revolve around the sun. My anus was discovered in 1949 by the Pediatrician Dr Loewe who delivered me as a breech birth. Interestingly, the long end of my life expectancy is around 84 years old, at which time the rings of my anus will collapse into the core for the final time. Also, Social Security is expected to collapse around 2033, the anticipated year of my own demise. See – Astrology can be fun.

You have proven that there is life on Ur-Anus, however not intelligent life. Christ clearly told us not to be dismayed by the signs in the sky, for such things the heathen do…. It doesn’t take a rocket scientist to know that a collapse is on the way, with or without mine or ur-anus. thanks

I think that you may understand orbital mechanics rather less than you think you do.

The current limits of observational astronomy and the data derived therefrom allow for rather significant precision to the math to accomplish said objectives. They do not contravene, nor suggest, the existence of the “helical” model. They do fit inside of it if such a model is valid.

Picked up a beloved cousin at the mental hospital a few days after a full moon. While she was getting ready to go home I spoke with the nurse about the full moon. The nurse said she was hired to come in on events like the full moon. At it’s peak the place filled up. As the moon waned , the patients, mostly cleared out.
My cousin said her period coincided with the full moon, she had horrible hallucinations requiring care.
After the moons waning she said she felt better and did not need to be there.

As I’ve grown accustomed to the daily routine of living here in the Ozarks of Missouri, I’ve stopped poking fun at myself for making a dream happen few people dare to think about. Nick will turn 61 in a few days, retired now for three full years from government contractor drone, making grand strides into turning this place into the sustainable little farm we’d dreamed it could be. I am not sure about the cycles of the stars and planets having an impact on the economies and political structures of mankind, but I am absolutely positive that this field will grow in a fuller crop of autumn hay for having been cut now, while it is so hot the weeds will choke out the clover and fescue if not cut and baled early in summer. It is Nature’s Way.

I realized that it is time to start canning some fruits and vegetables again soon. My storage is dwindling. I was able to store many dozens of quart jars against the first few years here. Three years in and I told my husband he needs to get his pickling spices out to make brine. I had the most wonderful salad today, drenched in a natural vinegar one of my neighbors makes. I think it is fair to say we are “sustainable.”

Photobucket has implemented a new policy of holding your photos ransom from time to time. The fact that a image “hosting” site can just arbitrarily declare your personal photos to be something you NOW need to pay to look at and use to the tune of $9.95 a month. If you are a TBPer who opened a PB account because of my “how to post images on TBP” offering, I apologize.

I am now deciding how badly I want to download a backup of ten years of images.

P.S. I suspect my how to article here on TBP boosted their account holders tremendously. And then the bastards have the nerve to cut me off my own account.

What does a Pluto return imply? It indicates a tearing down and a rebuilding of the basic
structure of the country. This transit occurs so that a new structure can be rebuilt in a
manner that is more suitable and serving.

Anything to do with Pluto is always about the foundation. The roots. So
as Pluto moves in direct opposition to the Sun, Mars, Jupiter and Mercury in the United
States chart we will see (and are seeing) a gradual and, yet very dramatic, restructure of
the American dream. Banks have failed, our efforts in foreign countries are constantly
drawing questions and our unemployment statistics are growing as more and more
people lose their jobs and houses. This is a restructure of the first order. What does this
mean? Ultimately it will be a good process. A cleansing of our collective spirit and
purpose will bring us back to a place of freshness and innovation which were the
founding characteristics of the country when we formed our union in 1776.

Not so, IS. There are mutually accepted concepts regarding Pluto’s return in astrology, not 2000 of them.

Your invented cliche doesn’t work on that.

“Planet Pluto in astrology clears out what is old, worn out, non-workable, dysfunctional; it occurs because it has to in the nature of things; it occurs in order to bring in the new, the functional, the effective. Pluto as creative destruction, more than any other single activating agent in astrology, performs this function.”

I also think it is all about the energy/vibration/frequency and astrology is one attempt at understanding the impact of the energy/vibration & frequency of the celestial bodies on our existence.

I’ve recently become interested in both the I Ching and the Tarot – perhaps because there isn’t much else I can do – like Admin I’m a bit burned out by the obvious and inevitable devastation that no one else can or will see. I feel like a different species.

Thanks for the article Stephanie – I appreciate the comparison.

I think humans have been increasingly and, more importantly, intentionally “cut off” from “nature” throughout our history for purposes of being controlled by elitists. The further that we humans and every other creature are removed from nature, the more dependent we become on whatever is being held up as the alternative. We were all given a mind with freedom of thought and the ability to reason and learn pretty much on our own. How many people do that at all today?

Fucking WP logged me out again! Anonymous is IndenturedServant.

Based on past and more recent doom porn reading I’m beginning to suspect that astrology is/was part of the ancient esoteric knowledge of humans many thousands of years ago. This makes sense because humans have spent many millennia observing the natural world including patterns in the sky. It’s perfectly reasonable that they would have observed numerous correlations over time that repeated much like observations of the seasons.

However, I think that that kind of esoteric knowledge and much more was suppressed in favor of what the emerging elite wanted humans to believe about the world for purposes of controlling the people. That said, I doubt that modern astrology shares even five percent in common with the ancient variety. Perhaps the Holy Roman Empire seized all that knowledge before destroying the ancient Library of Alexandria and it’s all locked away now by the keepers of knowledge like during the dark ages.

I get the gist of what you’re saying Clammy although I’m not sure some of the terms you use in your post about astrology have the same meaning in astronomy. For instance you use “rotations” for what I take to mean “orbits” but like I said, my knowledge of astrology is very limited. I think what you and others have discovered is not much more than coinky dink because modern astrology is basically bullshit. Ancient astrology may have been better. The differences between ancient magic and modern magic are similar.

Y’all (you guys) need to read Worlds In Collision by Velikovsky. In short, Venus was a comet that joined the solar system about the time the Israelite needed some divine intervention to escape Egypt.

Assuming that God orchestrated this astronomical event, it is not such a stretch to see Him/Her orchestrating the affairs of man through the fluctuations of energy all the time. We are always being influenced by energies of which we are not consciously aware.

Wow, I just read this and it’s really stupid. It sort of started off interesting, but when you try to combine astronomy, which is cool, with astrology, which is stupid, the stupidity, which is scientifically proven to be more dense than intelligence, displaces the intelligence, leaving just the stupidity.
Carl Sagan did a great simple acid test in the 1970s to show the utter idiocy of astrology. He opened several different newspapers for the same day and read their horoscopes. The paid astrological pseudoscientific charlatans writing for the different papers all had differing and random advice. Were it a reliable, repeatable, actual science, everyone should come up with, more or less, identical results with the same astrological “data.” But it don’t work like that, do it? Cuz’ astrology is for morons.
If you believe in astrology, I have some nice stories for you about the Easter Bunny, Santa Clause, Pyramid Power, Leprechauns, and I want to remind you not to walk on any cracks, lest you break your mother’s back.
