[Special thanks to Autumn at https://autumnallalong.com/ for letting me borrow some of her excellent photographs that were invaluable to this research.

On the Exaltation of Mars – Chapter 5.5 – Cinco de Mayo

In this brief subchapter on unlikely but significant events in which the Exaltation of Mars shows up, we have the unique - and mostly USAnian - observation of the Battle of Puebla, more commonly known as the unofficial party holiday of Cinco de Mayo.

On the Exaltation of Mars – Chapter 6 – the Obscure Astrology of the Shekinah and Modern Israel

The shekinah, which I have used in the past to denote the astronomical phenomena of Venus conjunctions with Mercury, deserves a brief treatment, both historical and contemporaneous. The following is a deeper dive into the idea. (I may add content to this post in the future.) Subscriber Content There are so many bizarre and strange avenues …

On The Exaltation of Mars – Chapter 9 – The “Sibly Chart” Decoded

For so many decades, USA astrologers have rallied around one radix for the beginning of the "United States of America," known as the Sibly Chart (often misspelled as the Sibley Chart). Much has been conjured up about this particular radix - so much so that it has taken on a life of its own, used …

Ed Kohout and the Third Rail of Astro-Politics: Zionism and Astrology, Part VII

Wow, we're really at the seventh installment of this suicidal series, so thanks for sticking with me. In previous parts, I detailed how the State of Israel was timed to fit within many historical and pseudo-historical events, and how modern Zionism finds its roots with the Knights Templars, and has projected power through the USA, …

Ed Kohout and the Third Rail of Astro-Politics: Zionism and Astrology, Part VI

In the last part of this series we looked at how the WZO chart resonates so tightly with some major war charts that we have to ask, how many coincidences before we are certain that we're seeing a deliberate pattern? Looking at event charts is only one facet of mundane astrology, however. Other charts for major …

Ed Kohout and the Third Rail of Astro-Politics: Zionism and Astrology, Part V

In parts I thru IV of this series, I laid out some well-known historical astrology, along with some perhaps not so well-known astro-myth, in hopes of establishing prerequisite bases for determining what, exactly, is the "State of Israel," and what the timing of certain current events mean amidst the collective sieve of history. We simply …

Ed Kohout and the Third Rail of Astro-Politics: Zionism and Astrology, Part IV

In Parts I thru III of this illustrious series, I put forth the case that "Zionism" is a quest that goes back to the era of the Crusades, and that the vaunted Knights Templars were the original legion of Zionists. It was they who reclaimed Al-Aqsa, beginning in 1119, by restoring the compound, enhancing it …

Ed Kohout and the Third Rail of Astro-Politics: Zionism and Astrology, Part III

In Parts I and II, I sought to lay out what I think are the important charts for Zionism, and began to make a case for my claim that the original Zionists were indeed the Knights Templars, based on how the deliberate, elective astrology of the World Zionist Organization built upon the historical astrology of …

Ed Kohout and the Third Rail of Astro-Politics: Zionism and Astrology, Part II

In Part I, two charts for creation were introduced, and also the chart for B'nai B'rith. In this part, we will look at charts for the World Zionist Organization [WZO] and the symbolic chart for the State of Israel, and see how they fit within the historic thread of Jewish horoscopy.
