Biden promises F-16s to Ukraine





President Joe Biden said Sunday that Ukraine President Volodymyr Zelenskyy assured him personally he won’t use F-16 fighter jets to attack Russian territory. “I have a flat assurance from Zelenskyy that they will not, they will not use it to go on and move into Russian geographic territory,” Biden said at a news conference in Hiroshima, Japan.

Astrologers routinely draw charts for monthly lunations, planetary ingresses, exact planetary aspects etc to understand how they affect events at any place. As always planetary combinations brought to the angles in these charts (horizon and meridian) are the ones that are most influential. 

The important planetary combination in May is Jupiter in Taurus in a square to both Mars and Pluto, a position that amplifies the intensity of the Mars-Pluto opposition rather than mitigates it. All three of these planets are in Fixed Signs, which means no one is inclined to surrender the certainty of their positions.

 


At Hiroshima, a chart for the exact Jupiter-Pluto square has the powerful T-square - a combination that, among other things, refers to “brutality” and “the pursuit of fanatical aims” (Ebertin) - straddling the horizon axis implying that its energy is felt significantly at that place. 

Resonating with this is Diana Rosenberg’s description of people affected by the stars that form the backdrop to Jupiter - the apex of the T -square. 

Arrogant personal severity, known for treating themselves and others ruthlessly in their drive to achieve their goals. Intolerant, conservative and absolutist they care nothing for what others think and when pressured can display outbursts of demonic intensity. 

Apex Jupiter is placed in the first decan of Taurus linked to the Five of Pentacles of the Minor Arcana. About this card Karen Hamaker-Zondag writes: 

Due to paying no attention in the past to signposts pointing to the need for change, we are altogether on the wrong track and this can express itself in the form of reverses...the problem will continue, if we fail to take control of ourselves, until we reach rock bottom and simply must do something to help ourselves.

Turning to Pluto we notice that it is conjunct the star Altair - in the constellation of Aquila, the Eagle. 

About Aquila Nick Fiorenza writes: 

Altair is of assertive authoritarian militaristic leadership. In classical astrology, Altair is of military force and power. Siderealist Andrés Takra adds: "Altair has been associated with kings, emperors, conquerors and tyrants”. 

The eagle is a raptor – a bird of prey – and together with Sham (the missile) it is a perfect symbol for a military aircraft like the F-16 aptly named the Flying Falcon after another raptor! 

It’s no coincidence that U.S. President Joe Biden made a sharp U-turn to send F-16 fighter jets to Ukraine on the same weekend that the NATO-backed Kiev regime just lost the strategic battle for Artyomovsk (Bakhmut).  

Biden is acting tough and he is once more recklessly escalating the war with Russia with his latest move on sending F-16s. But it’s a desperate throw of the dice by a loser who is going to be seen as an even bigger loser when the chips are finally down.
