Taurus Keynote
“I see and when the Eye is opened, all is light.”
(Full Moon: May 1, 2026. GMT 17.23.)

“Venus connotes in our minds, even if we have only a glimmer of occult truth, that which is mental, that which concerns final sublimation, that which deals with sex and that which must work out into symbolic expression upon the physical plane.

These are the major concepts which enter our minds when Venus and Taurus are considered in unison. These factors of expression have ever been related to these two since the night of time, because they are essentially basic and eternally cosmic in their implications. Taurus is one of the signs which veils a certain divine mystery.”1

The Wesak Festival
“At the time of this Wesak Festival, I would call your attention to the fact that the annual return of the Buddha to bless His people everywhere and to convey the message of wisdom, light and love to humanity—coming as He does [Page 287] from the very Heart of Deity Itself—is the outer evidence and guarantee of inner divine guidance and revelation in this present world cycle of 2500 years.

The wesak Valley. Top left, the Buddha descends to commune with three gathered figures: The Manu, Christ and Mahachohan. On the ground at centre, Masters of Wisdom, surrounded by crowds of pilgrims in the physical and non-physical realm.

Year by year He returns. For a brief minute He reminds us that God exists and ever loves; that He is not unmindful of His people; that the heart of the universe is unalterable compassion, and that man is not alone. To bring this recognition about and to make this appearance possible, a living Triangle of Energy is created and focussed through three great spiritual Individuals, Who evoke recognition both in the East and in the West. They are known to believers of every faith and all nationalities. These Three are:

1. The Lord of the World, the Ancient of Days, Sanat Kumara, the planetary Logos, Melchizedek, He to Whom Christ referred when He said, “I and My Father are One.”
2. The Buddha, the Illumined One, the Revealer of the light and the wisdom which come to us from sources far greater than our planetary Life, a Messenger of the Gods.
3. The Christ, the Son of the Father, the World Saviour, the Redeemer. He Who has remained with us and Who is gathering His sheep into His fold, the Lord of Love.

In these Three, Whose nature is radiant love and light, humanity can grasp in some measure the nature of divinity. They are greater than is known or realised; human intelligence and aspiration can only sense Their essential nature; Their spiritual potency has to be stepped down if mankind is to bear the pressure of the impact of the energy They wield and seek to transmit.

It is this stepping down process which takes place at the time of the May Full Moon, and it is brought to a “focus of transmission” by the massed intent of the Hierarchy and the massed demand of the world aspirants and disciples—itself drawn forth by the massed need of the people of all lands.”2

Indeed, the “massed demand of the world aspirants and disciples” who are members of the New Group of World Servers (NGWS) – which is in its collective expression, the mediator between Hierarchy and Humanity, constituting the planetary ajna centre.

NGWS: The Ajna Centre of Sanat Kumara
The NGWS functions as the ajna centre through which Sanat Kumara sees the world, whilst the Hierarchy and Humanity embody the heart and throat centres respectively:

Command of Rigden Djapo (Nicholas Roerich)

“The ajna centre of the Lord of the World is just beginning to express itself in a recognisable manner through the New Group of World Servers. This intermediate group between the Hierarchy and Humanity – is a carrier of the energy which makes the Plan possible (the Plan of which the Hierarchy is the custodian).

This Plan implements the Purpose, and later, when the New Group of World Servers is organised and is recognised as a living organism, it will definitely receive energy from Shamballa in a direct reception, via the Hierarchy.”3

One could dwell on these words for a moment, “it will definitely receive energy from Shamballa in a direct reception, via the Hierarchy”. This energy has already been invoked in the first spiritual festival of the year – Aries, sign of the first ray of Will or Power.

The ajna centre has two major petals consisting of 48 minor petals each = 96. Each of those petals could be considered as representing various major groups in the world who are serving the Plan. These groups would range across the board from exoteric organizations in the fields of politics, religion, education, the U.N., science and the arts to the more subjective esoteric organizations and evenly loosely organised “organisms”. The NGWS consists of the “world aspirant and world disciple” who at once embody the gradual unfoldment of these two major petals, individually and collectively:

“… the centre between the eyebrows also begins to make its presence felt [for the awakening aspirant], and this significant two-petalled lotus begins to vibrate. It symbolises the work of at-one-ing the soul and the body, the subjective and the objective.

In some occult books it is called the lotus with the ninety-six petals, but this is only a differentiation dealing with the energies focussed in the two petals. It will be noted that the sum total of the force petals in the centres (excluding the two head centres) amount in all to forty-eight petals [base 4 + sacral 6 + solar plexus 10 + heart 12 + throat 16 = 48].

These energies in their two aspects of physical vital energy and soul qualities make up the ninety-six aspects or vibrations of the two petals of the Ajna or eyebrow centre. It must be remembered also that the word “petal” only symbolises an expression of force and its apparent effect in matter.

The five centres with their forty-eight petals are synthesized therefore into the two-petalled lotus, and then we have forty-eight plus two equals fifty, the number of the perfected personality, for five is the number of man and ten is that of perfection.”4

In the diagram above, Hierarchy can be seen as the directing soul of Humanity but particularly of the NGWS who, once integrated as a personality, can enunciate the principles of Hierarchy to the “thinkers and scientists” at the leading edge of Humanity and this has already been occurring for some time.

This is not to say of course that the NGWS is somehow separate or superior to its fellow Humanity, it simply has responsibilities of a different order. In many ways these responsibilities are quite dire because if they are abnegated or not carried out correctly, the “divine blueprint” will not be transmitted correctly and gross distortion will be the result.

Hence if the NGWS allows chaos and ill-will to suffuse their ranks, or lets itself be distracted from the task of service at hand, they fail their “soul brief” from Hierarchy and forfeit their fellow Humanity.

Taurus Esoteric Ruler Vulcan: Does it Exist?
The first ray of will or power passes through the first sign Aries and is ruled by Vulcan and Pluto. Vulcan is the esoteric ruler of Taurus and many people ask if Vulcan actually exists – most assuredly! This article is by the late Dave Walters, who conducted much research on the subject: “Vulcan: An Etheric or Physical Planet?”. A first few paragraphs from this article follow:

“Speculation about the existence of an intra-mercurial planet is not new – it existed going back to the days of Galileo. It was not until the discoverer of Neptune, Urban LeVerrier examined the movements of the planet Mercury in 1859 that there was a valid astronomical reason for the existence of Vulcan – the motion of Mercury was off by a hair, and the only reasonable explanation of the motion was a planet inside the orbit of Mercury.

… Prior astronomical sightings were examined as well, and several potential sightings were found. However, for the most part, Vulcan was nowhere to be seen except possibly at the eclipse of July 29, 1878 …

…. I have been asked many times – is Vulcan an etheric or physical planet, and it is the intention of this article to examine this issue carefully, looking at the words of D.K. to help us in this search. It is my belief that Vulcan is a dense, physical planet, whose orbit is between Mercury and the Sun, and may have already been discovered!” (Read the rest of the article here.)

Taurus: Geelong Oil Refinery Explosion in Australia
The event horoscope for the recent explosion at the Geelong oil refinery on April 15, has the Moon in the last degree of Pisces – at the same degree as the Virgo solar eclipse on Sept. 21, 2025 and the new moon on March 19 – at 29° Pisces.

Inner wheel: Solar eclipse Sept. 2025. Outer wheel: New moon March 2026.

In eclipse cycles, one eclipse or lunar phase can activate another – particularly with these two new moons that would have a profound effect upon any nation (Israel) on the Virgo-Pisces axis – including Greece, Ireland and Australia – as they are Virgo souls. Significantly, this explosion occurred two days before the Aries new moon.

On the Virgo solar eclipse Sept. 21, 2025 – the Sun-Moon was in the last degree of Virgo, opposite Saturn in almost the last degree of Pisces. Later in March 2026, the new moon in Pisces triggered that same point. Saturn rules Capricorn, Australia’s personality sign, highly significant for several reasons:

1. Capricorn is a sign of resources and their right management. Australia is a country rich in many resources of minerals, coal and gas – but its wealth has gone into the hands of a few billionaire magnates, almost “given away” to foreign interests, sold out for short term gain – or been badly managed. In the past year for instance, there has been much political debate about why Australia is not levying a tax on its gas exports overseas, whose recipients are selling it on for a profit.

(Satire)

“While the gas is extracted from beneath Australian soils, the profits go almost entirely to large multinational companies. Research suggests gas companies have made roughly $A149 billion from exports in just four years.”5

2. Australia is currently in Stage 2 of a fuel crisis (now going into Stage 3), due to events in the Middle East – but also because it only has two oil refineries – Geelong and Brisbane. Just over two decades ago, Australia had eight oil refineries capable of meeting most of the nation’s fuel demand. Six of them have since closed as Australia chose to import fuel from overseas.

Why? Apparently, “due to economic pressures and a competitive disadvantage in the global market, leading to decisions based on commercial considerations as some refineries operated at a loss.” (See this March 30 article, How Australia became hostage to fuel imports.)

Australia now faces a dire crisis – a huge country that is about 72% the size of the USA, relies critically on diesel for trucks to travel vast distances – to carry food and fertiliser to supermarkets and farmers. Many farmers currently cannot get diesel and are even foregoing the sowing of some crops.

Across the ditch, New Zealand is currently experiencing the same crisis with petrol increasing over 35% and diesel more than 87%! This is price gouging, plain and simple. Companies are hiking prices on EXISTING fuel stock, before pre-paid shipments still in transit, have reached Australia.

3. The 1901 Australian Federation horoscope has the Moon in earthy Taurus, reflecting its abundance of resources – an “embarrassment of riches” if you will – a Capricorn cornucopia. In the Geelong explosion horoscope, Venus – ruler of Taurus, approaches within one degree of Australia’s Moon. The Sun moved into Taurus a few days later, highlighting the “apparent lack” of resources theme. It was also the lunar return in Taurus on April 19, whose chart shows a tight conjunction of Moon, Venus and Uranus.

4. The Geelong explosion has literally added fuel to the existing fire of fuel shortages. Many are saying that the timing is “decidedly dodgy” and seriously considering a deliberate sabotage on a refining facility that has operated without a problem since 1954. There have in fact been many suspicious explosions or fires in oil refineries around the world. Between February and April 2026, at least eight significant incidents occurred at oil refineries and processing units globally:

Only recently, Australian PM Anthony Albanese (a hostage to certain foreign interests), spear-headed a $20 million advertising blitz for Aussies to drive less, pushing what some critics claim – “15’ cities” or buying EV’s (electric vehicles). Leaving the car at home, improving fuel efficiency by “driving smoothly” and “unloading excess weight”, encouraging people to walk, cycle or take public transport (nothing wrong with that!) – or even removing roof racks for better fuel economy – the tradies loved that one!

5. Many who live down-under believe that the Geelong explosion was the result of deliberate sabotage. In the Aries new moon newsletter for April 17, it was stated, “With Mercury in Aries wedged between Neptune and Mars, there could be much abusive and deceptive communication.”

Mercury in Aries (April 15 to May 3)  The following is an edited version of the original article here.
Mercury – the esoteric ruler of Aries, entered this sign on April 15 – bringing a message of fire (Geelong), both literally and figuratively. Mercury is the mediator and messenger, representing rapid thought processes and intuitive inspiration.

As “messenger of the gods”, Mercury’s close proximity to the Sun reflects its role as an intermediary to the other planets – bringing “light and purpose” from the Sun, affirming the esoteric fact that, “Mercury receives seven times more light than any other planet.”6

All planets are intimately connected to one another, as they evolve the Will of the Solar Logos within the corporate body of our “4^th order” solar system – whose source or “higher self” is the fixed star Sirius. This star represents the “4^th cosmic path” which the majority of liberated humanity will eventually tread. Our Earth Scheme is currently in its 4^th chain and 4^th globe incarnation and in an ultra long cycle called the 4^th round. (A broader explanation can be found in the author’s The Hidden History of Humanity I.)

The 49 incarnations of the seven chains of the Earth Scheme.

Mercury is the ruler of the 4^th ray of Harmony through Conflict – the major ray that rules over Humanity as a whole), hence is related to Aries’ exoteric ruler Mars, a “creator of conflict”:

“Mercury indicates that the line of least resistance for humanity is harmony through conflict, for Mercury expresses the fourth ray energy which is buddhic, intuitional and expressive of the Christ [consciousness].”7

As a sacred planet, and on the “even ray line” of Love-Wisdom (2-4-6) – Mercury is the Harmony part of the equation, whilst co-ruler Moon represents Conflict – created by the unconscious self in this life – or from the accumulations of incarnations. At a basic level, Mercury is the “trickster” using mental intelligence (3^rd ray) – reflected by its exoteric rulership of Gemini and Virgo.

Ajna Centre.

“Mercury, being the Messenger of the Gods and the Agent of Their applied control, is therefore the agent of the third aspect (active intelligence) from one point of view, and of the second aspect (love-wisdom) from another. He is regarded as embodying in himself both these aspects of the mental principle, the expression of the concrete and the abstract mind of God.”8

The mind is of course where illusion is encountered (glamour on the mental plane) and this why Mercury the divine Messenger is regarded as the principle of illusion and the expression of the active higher mind.9

In its highest expression, Mercury is buddhi, intuition or direct knowledge, emanating from beyond the mental plane but utilising the latter. Hence the Aries keynote: “I come forth from the plane of mind, I rule.” Buddhic consciousness is the ultimate goal of consciousness evolution for humanity.

“Mercury is the synthesis of manas-buddhi, mind-wisdom which expresses itself through the human soul; Mercury rules the bridge or the antahkarana.”10

In its buddhic role, Mercury rules the right lobe of the Ajna or brow chakra, whilst Venus rules the left lobe (mind). Each new annual cycle in Aries reminds us of this distant goal:

“When Mercury, the divine Messenger, the principle of illusion and the expression of the active higher mind, has performed his mission and “led humanity into the light” – and the Christ-child out of the womb of time and of the flesh, into the light of day and of manifestation, then the task of that great centre we call humanity will be accomplished.”11

There are several “4’s” associated with Mercury: Associated with the 4^th cosmic path to Sirius, the 4^th kingdom, the human, the 4^th initiation or fully realised buddhic consciousness – and ruler of the 4^th ray:

“Mercury, embodying the energy of the fourth ray, eventually carries the man around the wheel of life and through the medium of conflict enables him to achieve harmony. Mercury illumines the mind and mediates between the soul and the personality, being the Messenger of the Gods.

This mediatorship, in the first instance, produces an inevitable opposition between the pairs of opposites and a long drawn out conflict. This conflict finally works out into victory and the dispelling of illusion through the illumination of the lower mind.”12

Uranus in Gemini (2025-2033)
On April 26 Uranus left Taurus, never to return for another 84 years – moving into Gemini for the next seven years. But just before that, a series of movements by the moon and Venus through late Taurus heralded that big shift – amplifying the themes of this sign around Earth resources like fuel and food.

Uranus (Charles Henry Granger. June 13, 1812 – September 8, 1893) was an American itinerant painter who at various times was also a poet, composer, musician, music teacher, sculptor and draftsman.) A good example of a versatile Gemini sun quincunx Uranus!

Also on April 24 (Friday day of Venus), Venus moved into Gemini, the sign of its esoteric rulership, heralding Uranus’ passage to this sign two days later, April 26. The world had a taste of Uranus in Gemini in 2025 when Uranus dipped its toes into this sign for a few months – from July to November.

Soon it will be creating a revolution of ideas and communication in Gemini, but recent months have also highlighted the unpredictable nature of Uranus and flighty Gemini. As Uranus and Venus have been shown to be prominent in earthquake activity, the conjunction of these two planets from April 23-27 have the potential to trigger a major earthquake somewhere.

Following the Venus-Uranus lines in astro-cartography, it can be seen that they pass precisely through New Zealand – a nation prone to earthquakes. Also north west Spain and Portugal, amongst other countries. The following is from an article in 2025 that explores Uranus in Gemini.

Uranus in Gemini
Uranus’ “falls” in Taurus and “prepares the inner man for the sharp interplay and conflict in the next sign, Gemini.”13 Gemini the Twins – or “warring brothers”, represents the conflict of soul and personality, or the balancing of the pairs of opposites upon the mental plane, ultimately achieved by Gemini’s esoteric ruler Venus.

Through Mercury’s exoteric rulership of Gemini, there is the scintillating, quicksilver nature of this sign – adept at communications and the dissemination of knowledge. Gemini is also the sign of relationships in general – as part of the mutable or common cross, has the skill to find something in common with others – leading to dialogue, understanding and friendship. Uranus is regarded as the “planet of science”,

“Uranus, the occult planet, stands for exoteric science which penetrates into the hidden side of form life, and thus we have the period wherein man is not alert enough or conscious enough to seize upon opportunity and turn it to esoteric or soul ends, but can identify himself with the more advanced aspects of form.”14

This statement acknowledges modern science’s materialistic outlook but also the various advances and scientific penetrations into matter that have occurred over the past century. Uranus is the planet of invention and innovation – hence, Uranus in Gemini will be a powerful combination in advancing a plethora of ideas, especially in the world of digital technology and AI. This is already going ahead at a rapid rate – with all its potential pitfalls and dangers.

Further supporting Uranus in Gemini, will be its harmonious trine aspect to Pluto in Aquarius from mid 2025 to mid 2028 – three years. As ruler of Aquarius, Uranus will potentise Pluto’s position and vice-versa.

Uranus is also the ruler of the seventh ray of Organisation, a.k.a. Ceremonial Magic – a ray that is moving into stronger expression in its new cycle that overlaps the whole Aquarian precession cycle of 2,160 years. Uranus rules Aquarius – the soul of three nations: USA, Russia and the Netherlands.

Therefore, it is hoped that Gemini’s communication skills will encourage a better rapport between Russia and the USA. Russia is a seventh ray soul and the USA a second ray soul, the only ray to pass through Gemini. The possibility of peaceful relations looks promising – if and when world leaders can make it happen.

Uranus conjunct Alcyone in Gemini
In 2025, Uranus was already within orb of activating the fixed star Alcyone in the Pleiades, having its first exact conjunction in mid-July, then late October and finally from early April to early May 2026 – right on the Wesak full moon in Taurus-Scorpio.

Alcyone in the Pleiades

The Pleiades
Alcyone is the dominating principle in the constellation of the Pleiades – “the central point around which our Universe of fixed stars revolves, the focus from which, and into which the divine breath, MOTION, works incessantly during the Manvantara.”15 Every 180,000,000 years!

Esoterically, Alcyone is known as the Star of the Individual—governing humanity, sometimes called the Star of Intelligence. The latter name connects it to the third ray of Active-Intelligence – and the Pleiades as a whole, which plays the role of the “cosmic mother”.

Alcyone was in the last degree of Taurus, now moved into early Gemini (20’ of arc), hence powerfully activated by Uranus for at least another year by the electrical stimulation of both Uranus and Alcyone. Uranus is the ruler of Aquarius – a sign that,

“… relates humanity to the Pleiades and therefore to Taurus in an unusual manner. The key to this relation is to he found in the word desire, leading, through the transmutative processes of life experience, to aspiration and finally the relinquishing of desire in Scorpio.

Aquarius, Alcyone and Humanity constitute a most interesting triangle of force … The energies coming from Alcyone impregnated the substance of the universe with the quality of mind. As a consequence of this most ancient activity, the same force was present at the time of individualisation [Lemuria] in this solar system …

… in this system, and primarily upon our planet, the Earth, that the major results of that early activity have made themselves felt. Two of our planets, the Earth (non-sacred) and Uranus (sacred), are directly the product of this third ray activity.”16

Human consciousness has been evolving ever since the massive planetary event of Individualisation in Lemuria, some 21.6 million years ago. Hence, each time Uranus passes over Alcyone every 84 years, Humanity expands its consciousness or “individualises” on a higher turn of the evolutionary spiral – through stimulations of light from Alcyone.

Hidden History of Humanity

Israel: Taurus, Mercury and the Fourth Ray

Introduction
Regular readers will know that this author has been writing about the “Jewish problem” and Israel since 2004, with several essays per year. But from 2025 to 2026, around 40 articles of astro-rayological analysis has been written, as this problem has been brought into hard focus through the actions of Zionist Israel. (Review articles since 2023.)

Some readers have interpreted these writings as “anti-Semitic” due mainly to their media and cultural conditioning which elicits a knee-jerk response when any analysis or constructive criticism is offered.

This is common in the public domain where criticism of Israel is called anti-Semitic and if it is from a Jewish person, then you are a “self-hating Jew”.

Thankfully these tired old tropes are now failing, because the last few years since October 7 has allowed the public to see Israel for what it has become, a virtually failed state with a deeply wounded psyche.

Yet, Australia’s “antisemitism envoy” Jillian Segal has just published a handbook of appalling guidelines which are to many, false and misleading.

Israel is regarded as the main source of instability in the Middle East, is the least respected nation internationally, is guilty of heinous crimes against humanity and is run by a group of fanatics who engage in endless aggression toward all nations around them.

This author has pondered these problems long and hard, worked with meditating groups of both Jews and Gentiles, and written an esoteric history of the Jewish People that can be found in The Hidden History of Humanity I. The Tibetan Master has said,

“The Jewish problem,—a problem which has existed for centuries, and which is, at this time, causing the deepest possible concern to many, including members of the planetary Hierarchy. If this problem can be solved, it will be one of the potent factors in the restoration of world understanding and harmony.  It cannot be solved without the cooperation of the men of good will throughout the world.”17

Taurus, Mercury and the Fourth Ray
Mercury rules the fourth ray of Harmony through Conflict and both play a significant role in the destiny of the Jewish people. The fourth ray – the “ray of Humanity”, has close resonance with the Fourth Rootrace, Atlantis:

“This fourth ray is pre-eminently the way of the seeker, the searcher and the sensitive reflector of beauty. The Jewish nation has a close relation to this fourth ray and to the fourth root race, and hence their eminence at this time in the world of art, and hence the magnitude of their endless symbolic wandering and searching.”18

These facts are highlighted for several reasons:

1. The 4^th ray association with Atlantis and the Jewish people as a distinct organism within that rootrace.
2. Israel has the Sun in Taurus and the 4^th ray is the only ray to pass through this sign.
3. Taurus has an association with property, land and resources, the theft of which is a marked attribute of expansionist “Greater Israel” – which began in 1948 with the theft of Palestine and the routing of local inhabitants.

Exploring the Atlantean association,

“The major sin of the Atlantean people was theft—widespread and general.  The seeds of aggression and of personal acquisitiveness began to show themselves, culminating in the great war (as related in The Secret Doctrine) between the Lords of the Shining Countenance and the Lords of the Dark Face. To procure what they coveted and felt they needed, the most highly evolved of that race began to practice magic.

… the Words of Power employed and the carefully planned rituals which were followed by those who sought to enrich themselves and to take what they wanted, no matter what the cost to others.  This magical work was the misdirected travesty of the White Magic so openly used in those days, prior to the great war between the Forces of Light and the Forces of Evil.

Flood of Atlantis (Nicholas Roerich)

Magic of the right kind was very familiar to the Atlantean people, and was used by those Members of the Hierarchy Who were entrusted with the guidance of the race and Who were combating rampant evil in high places. That same evil is again upon the warpath and is being fought by the men of goodwill [written WWII], under the direction of the Great White Lodge.”19

Of course, its not just Israel guilty of reverting to this ancient form of theft. In recent centuries, all European colonialist nations have looted the resources of the Americas, Asia, Indonesia, the Middle East etc. And they still do to some extent, although now there is a gradual moving away from those exploitive practices. Except, quite markedly – Israel, and by way of that ideological “infection”, the USA.

Under its current administration, the USA has been simply barging in to steal resources: Venezuela, Iran “we’re gonna take their oil”, Cuba etc. This practice also occurred during the Israeli-encouraged invasion of Iraq – oil at the cost of a million lives. Part of Israel’s current expansion into southern Lebanon is to access its gas fields. To go about this under the guise of “fighting Hezbollah”:

“Israeli forces have been demolishing an average of 1,000 homes a day in southern Lebanon since March 2, completely wiping some villages off the map. Israeli Defense Minister Israel Katz indicated that they would carry out a similar destruction in southern Lebanon to what they did in Rafah and Beit Hanoun and other areas of the Gaza Strip, applying the “Gaza model.””

Data Theft
Inextricably entwined with this ancient form of theft, is the new theft of human data harvesting by tech giants. Without permission from a hapless humanity, where intrusive algorithms and insidious programming intrude into everyone’s private lives and sell that data on to various companies. And yet this theft has been massaged into something that is an acceptable business model by the technocratic overlords.

Is it a coincidence that these tech leviathans like Google, Meta, Oracle, Cisco, IBM, Apple and Palantir (co-ordinating the genocide in Gaza) – are all owned by those who embrace Zionist ideology, also known as Israel Firsters or Jewish Supremacists. (See 2025 article, The Tech Billionaires.)

The author makes the regular disclaimer that these groups are distinct from the rest of the global population of Jews who do not share these fanatical ideologies.

These groups are the shadow of the Jewish people, whose brilliance is meant to uplift and support humanity, not exploit. That is the true meaning of the “chosen people” – to serve humanity.

Full Moon for Israel in Crisis
Much has been written about Israel’s 1948 Nakba (“catastrophe”) horoscope – its sun in Taurus squaring a stellium of planets in Leo. (See 22 years of Israel articles.) At this 2026 Wesak full moon, the Sun-Moon opposition creates a grand cross to Israel’s ascendant in Aquarius and Saturn-Pluto in Leo.

Israel’s transits and progressions, May 1, 2026. (Wesak full moon.)

Pluto the planet of power in Leo – a sign of power. Pluto the Destroyer’s power is naturally ruthless – something Israel already has in spades – given the positions of Moon, Saturn and Mars in this sign. Especially its Taurus sun, square the merciless midpoint  of Saturn-Mars – “feelings of inadequacy or anger if not managed well”.

Samson destroying the temple.

Pluto is just half a degree from the position of the sun in Leo when the first atomic bomb was dropped on Japan – Hiroshima. Some obvious symbolism here, given Israel’s unknown stockpile of nuclear weapons that holds the whole Middle East to ransom.

There is also the emotional blackmail of the carefully curated “Samson Option”- a last resort tactic (or psy-op) against any country whose military has invaded and/or destroyed much of Israel.

Israel is truly in the greatest crisis of its existence. The abused lives of the WWII holocaust have had their suffering hijacked by Zionist ideology, creating a nation of abusers, performing one holocaust after another in Gaza and Lebanon, with their sights set to replicate same in Iran. Not content with that, but already setting sights set on Turkey as “the new Iran”!

Here is the psychology of a deeply traumatised people, a nation in collective psychosis, born of many past fears, amplified by Zionist propaganda and enabled by the coterie of Zionists who dominate the White House and US Congress.

Yohai Hakak: When A Traumatized Society Wields Unchecked Power

Astronomy of the south and north nodes.

Israel’s Nodal Axis
At the Wesak full moon, the Scorpio-Taurus axis also straddles the south-north nodes. The south node traditionally represents the past and has some very apt interpretations:

“South node in Scorpio
The quest to overcome distrust of change, to develop creative outlets for intense emotions and to avoid hitting out at loved ones.

These attributes plagued you in this life because of suffering and traumatic endings in past-lives which left you with deep emotional wounds and a feeling of being cheated. In learning this life’s lesson of trusting the process of change you will develop a newfound sense of peace and stability.

South node in the 9th house Represents a quest to understand interactions between people. The need to leave behind your varied belief systems of past lives, and find a viable form of communication.”20

Israeli settler violence against Palestinians has increased dramatically in recent months.

These interpretations resonate loudly, especially when considering Scorpio ruler Pluto in Leo (and Saturn) square this nodal axis. To leave behind the separative myths of the Promised Land and the Chosen Ones, to diffuse and disperse into all global communities.

There is an ideal that would fall on deaf ears of the current regime in Tel Aviv, but realisable. The concentration of all “belief systems of past lives” is a recipe for regression.

Some millions of Israeli’s have already fled to northern Europe, USA, Australia, South America or South-East Asia, yet many have done so with a firmly fixed enclave mentality that encourages exclusivity and elitism – all over again.

Given Israel’s proven intransigence, these current hostilities may be the rock that Israel breaks itself upon. Already, the physical and psychological devastation for Israel will take decades, if not a century to repair.

The trauma of Palestinians is mirrored in the depth of suffering that now exist in the ranks of many IDF soldiers who have endured a psychological holocaust. Yet a large majority of Israeli’s are willing to “do whatever it takes” to realise their “promised land” dream.

Avi-am Tzoreff: Israel, Fortress of Fear

Israel’s Mercury in Gemini
Another interesting factor at the Wesak full moon, is that the 27-year cycle of the progressed moon is currently falling on Israel’s natal Mercury in Gemini – in the 4^th house of the homeland. (Or Is-not-real, as some are now calling it.)

Mercury in this position represents the instability of artificially establishing a home in a land that was “promised 3,000 years ago” – at the price of the displacement of thousands of Palestinians from their homes. Mercury in Gemini in the 4th house, is also symbolic of the fact that Israel has no constitution or clear cut borders.

As noted earlier, Mercury is an important planet in the Jewish psyche, ruling not only the fourth ray but the Jewish Virgo soul. Mercury the traveller and the shepherd – in this instance, is the archetypal “Wandering Jew”, searching for a home, looking for somewhere to lay his head.

Natal Mercury is part of a grand trine with natal Neptune in Libra and Aquarius rising: The high idealism behind the potential of a promised land; the Aquarian group co-operation symbolised by the kibbutz – an intentional community based upon agriculture.

Israel’s Solar Return 2026.

The realisation of that ideal, with Israel as a universal centre for all nations of any creed, might have been another choice.

Now that the progressed Moon is conjunct Mercury in Gemini, activating this grand trine, it symbolises a questioning of the original ideal – or a rigid reaffirmation of it – the latter which can be seen in many online interviews and articles.

This progressed Moon conjunct Mercury can also be seen as the national state of flux and uncertainty about current outcomes that will flow from Israel’s actions (karma).

As well as the mass exodus (an interesting term!) – from Israel in all directions, symbolised by Mercury – the planet of travel.

Many places adjacent to Israel – like Cyprus and the Greek islands are currently the target of massive property purchases by Israeli’s.

Needless to say, its neighbours are not impressed because everywhere many Israeli’s go (not all of course), they bring their entitled and often rude behaviour with them.

Israel’s Solar Return 2026
Israel’s solar return chart occurs on May 14, two days before the Taurus new moon on May 16. It does not bode well for any significant or immediate change, given several factors – flammable, fallible and culpable:

1. A close Moon-Mars conjunction in Aries which is very “flammable”.
2. Sagittarius rising which can fuel religious fanaticism – fallible.
3. A grand trine formed between Moon-Mars, Sagittarius rising and Israel’s natal Mars in Leo – that encourages further aggression – culpable!

David Wilcock’s Passing
David Wilcock’s recent suicide was a sad event and the author’s heartfelt condolences to his family, friends and followers. Today the world is in a very dark place and many people would rather not be here, as we witness the continuous horrors of the Kali Yuga unfold – and live in perpetual uncertainty about the future.

Readers of these newsletters have asked if anything was going to be written about Wilcock’s passing, and it was with some reluctance that decision was made. In situations like this, when there is a clamour of emotion and speculation rife, there needs to be left some space and respect for a departed soul, family and friends.

It is a well-known fact that personal attachments and psychic “noise” can impede the soul’s progress in the afterlife. Also, there is the potential for a detached analysis like this to be seen as insensitive. Yet, Wilcock’s tragic choice holds lessons for all of us who work in the field of universal spirituality – on the subjects of world glamour, the “new age” scene – and challenges that everybody faces on the spiritual path.

“David Wilcock (March 8, 1973 – April 20, 2026) Wilcock’s journey began in the early 1990s, long before he became a household name. A little-known fact from his early career is that he started as a professional musician and composer, a skill he later integrated into his research on the vibrational nature of the universe.

He first gained major attention through his pioneering platform, Divine Cosmos, where he meticulously documented “interplanetary climate change”—a theory that predated many modern space science observations.

Born in 1973, Wilcock became an international icon as a primary architect of the “Disclosure” movement. He authored multiple New York Times bestsellers, including The Source Field Investigations and The Synchronicity Key. For over a decade, he was a cornerstone of the History Channel’s Ancient Aliens, appearing in over 100 episodes, and produced hundreds of hours of content for Gaia TV.

He was celebrated for his unique ability to synthesize ancient Egyptian lore, archaeology, and quantum physics. His departure comes just days after a final broadcast on April 17, where he reflected on the sanctity of his life’s work. His family has requested that he be remembered for his relentless curiosity and his mission to uncover a truth that he believed would eventually unite humanity.”21

David Wilcock

For this astrological perspective, there will be no speculation about whether Wilcock was murdered, “suicided” or joined the “galactic federation” – for which there are many online perspectives. (Recommended is this well balanced analysis by Bernard Guenther, THE TRAGEDY OF DAVID WILCOCK AND WHAT IT REVEALS.)

Unconfirmed reports say that, “Wynn Free, the writer who co-authored a book with David Wilcock exploring reincarnation, reportedly died just a few days before Wilcock.

Producer and author Jay Weidner placed Free’s death on April 18, while spiritual practitioner Andrea Foulkes stated it occurred on April 14. The location and cause of death have not been publicly confirmed.”22

Wilcock first caught this author’s attention when seeing his claim that he was a reincarnation of Edgar Cayce. Given that there are certain esoteric criteria for reincarnation, this was tested – based upon this statement,

“The particular month in which a soul comes into incarnation is indicated to that soul by the month in which it passed out of incarnation in a previous life cycle.

If it, for instance, died in the month governed by the sign Leo, it will return into incarnation in the same sign, picking up the thread of experience where it left it, and starting with the same type of energy and the peculiar equipment with which it passed away from earth life, plus the gain of thought and conscious onlooking. The quality of the energy and the nature of the forces to be manipulated during life are indicated to the soul in this way.”23

Edgar Cayce (March 18, 1877 – January 3, 1945) – left that incarnation when the sun was in Capricorn – Wilcock was born with the sun in Pisces. Hence the above criteria is not fulfilled, though there might sometimes be exceptions.

Edgar Cayce

Based upon that rule, unless Wilcock had a very quick incarnation in the intervening 28 years, it is doubtful that he was a reincarnation of Cayce. (See author’s previous article on Cayce.)

One wonders what motive there was for making the claim in the first place – naïve exhuberance, “dead certainty” or ego-driven – though it does not really matter. If that inner knowledge is made available to someone (which is very rarely the case), then it might best be kept private and be known by one’s “fruits”.

Or, as a Mercurial messenger for millions, trading on the fame of Cayce? That can be a positive in terms of reaching millions with illuminating ideas, but can also create a glamorous or cultish notoriety – in some cases, the relaying of distorted or fanatical perspectives.

Yet, there is an enormous synastry between the Wilcock-Cayce horoscopes – both souls had the Sun, Mercury and Venus in Pisces, both had Mars in Capricorn, both had the Moon in Taurus (in the same degree!) – and both had a water sign rising.

No wonder Wilcock felt a strong affinity with Cayce – and they may have even have a close ashramic affiliation on the inner planes. They also could have had some close karma with one another, indicated by Wilcock’s Venus conjunct Cayce’s Saturn and Cayce’s Venus conjunct Wilcock’s sun. Further synastry that gave Wilcock such a strong resonance was his Mercury the Messenger conjunct Cayce’s sun.

Inner wheel Cayce, outer wheel Wilcock.

Pisces is the medium and the mystic, arguably the most astrally sensitive of the water signs. Cayce (the “sleeping prophet”) was also Pisces rising, with a large stellium in Pisces. The challenge for this kinds of Pisces individuals is to move from,

“a. Negativity into positive soul control.
b. Mediumship into mediatorship.
c. Clairvoyance into spiritual perception.
d. Clairaudience into mental telepathy and finally inspiration.
e. Instinct into intellect.
f. Selfishness into divine selflessness.
g. Acquisitiveness into renunciation.
h. Self-preservation into selfless world service.
i. Self-pity into compassion, sympathy and divine understanding.”24

No doubt both men manifested these criteria to one degree or another – both had millions of inspired followers. But one of the great challenges for those with such strong Piscean influences are the glamours of the astral plane – being too open psychically, attracting unwanted entities, possession, addiction, victimhood, martyrdom, self-pity – and prone to depression.

Wilcock was reported to have succumbed to the latter in recent years – due to a 2021 divorce, financial difficulties, alleged manipulation by the infamous Corey Goode – and an ever-present paranoia related to all the subjects he reported on: UFO disclosure and aliens, the deep state, cosmic portals, murders of scientists, the possibility of being a target himself.

Wilcock was Scorpio rising, his soul purpose – and a sign identified as prone to depression leading to suicide. (Covered in this profile on Anthony Bourdain and Kate Spade.) Scorpio also rules over the second degree initiation, an advanced stage of evolution toward which a large group of those on the Path are heading. The second degree involves major trials and testings that lead to a demonstrated control over the astral body.

These testings are symbolised in the 8^th Scorpio labour of Hercules and his battle with the nine-headed hydra, whose heads symbolise:  Sex, comfort and money (physical plane). Hatred, desire for power and fear (astral plane). Pride, separativeness and cruelty (mental plane).

Indeed, Scorpio rising for Wilcock may have meant that he was poised to take the 2^nd initiation – with all its arduous tests and trials. Mars, ruler of the solar plexus centre and exoteric/esoteric ruler of this sign, is placed in the sign of its exaltation, Capricorn – another sign of initiation, where the goat treads the arduous way to the summit.

Saturn-ruled Capricorn is a sign of powerful intellect and intelligence – bringing ample forces to bear regarding the mental control and discipline of the astral body. Wilcock’s exploration of the sciences – both mainstream and alternative, allowed him to weave mysticism with science, looking at new paradigms of energy and matter.

Wilcock’s Taurus moon (the mother of illumination) – also contributed, in terms of the will to know, the acquisition of higher knowledge, ultimately transformed into wisdom.

Yet the Moon is also the dweller on the threshold (the Jungian “shadow”) – and the main issues in Taurus relate to the right use of sex (as does Scorpio rising), money, possessions and property.

Wilcock was said to be having financial problems and faced significant criticism for allegedly exploiting his followers. The practices summarised in the graphic at right, led to a growing chorus of detractors who argue that Wilcock’s approach is exploitative and manipulative. (See also the June 2025 article: David Wilcock’s Grift Exposed: The Truth Behind the Scam.)

This author has no particular view on these allegations, they may be true or not and Wilcock followers might vehemently deny them. Indeed, many have stated that what they paid for courses was “worth every cent”.

But it is true that depression was a major factor in Wilcock feeling hopelessly trapped and taking his own life. As noted earlier, the combination of Pisces sensitivity and Scorpio intensity for the spiritually aware, can be unbearable:

“Sorrow. The greater the refinement of the human vehicle, the greater the response of the nervous system to the pairs of opposites, pain and pleasure.

As a man progresses and rises on the ladder of evolution in the human family it becomes apparent that his capacity to appreciate sorrow or joy is greatly increased.

This becomes terribly true in the case of an aspirant and of a disciple. His sense of values becomes so acute and his physical vehicle so sensitized that he suffers more than the average man.

This serves to drive him forward with increasing activity in his search. His response to outer contacts is ever more rapid and his capacity for pain, physical and  emotional,  becomes greatly increased.

This is apparent in the fifth [root] race and particularly in the fifth subrace [5.5] in the increasing frequency of suicide. The capacity of the race to suffer is due to the development and refinement of the physical vehicle and to the evolution of the body of feeling, the astral.”25

A screenshot of one of many online links that offers healing for this known problem.

Another factor with the Moon in Taurus in the 6th house of health, is that it can be a “sweet tooth” and whether he was or it had anything to do with Wilcock suffering from type 2 diabetes, is unknown.

The pancreas regulates insulin and is the endocrine gland associated with the solar plexus chakra, gateway to the desire or astral body. Mood swings, muddled thinking, anxiety, depression and bi-polar disorders can be a problem with those who have this ailment. Esoterically,

“Diabetes is more definitely the result of wrong inner desires, and is not so definitely the result of wrong outer desires. These may originate in this life … or be inherited from a previous existence … diabetes is connected with inner emotional desires and the violent suppressed wish-life.”26

Scorpio’s hierarchical ruler is Mercury, “falling” in Pisces – where its expression is super-intuitive and even telepathic – played a large part in Wilcock’s role of Mercuial messenger to many; he opened the door for many souls who were only just awakening to their true nature.

Mercury in Pisces is opposite the esoteric ruler of that sign and co-ruler of Scorpio rising – Pluto in Libra, affording his investigative skills to penetrate the veil of illusion. But it is also a factor that may have led him down some dark tunnels of paranoia and malevolent entities, where astral phantoms may have been indistinguishable from physical beings.

Transits and Progressions
The movement of the planets on the day of Wilcock’s passing give a lot of information.

David Wilcock: Transits and Progressions at Death

1. Transiting Moon conjunct Saturn in Gemini. (Disseminator of knowledge.) The transit of the moon is always important in event charts like this and is exactly conjunct Saturn in the EDT chart, and just past it on MDT time – Nederland, CO. Saturn the lord of karma, brings an enormous sense of responsibility and perhaps for Wilcock a sense of not being able to fulfill it.

2. Transiting Moon square Sun-Venus midpoint. The moon was activating the natal Saturn square Sun-Venus midpoint which emphasises romantic connections and deep emotional bonds with partners.

Memories of Wilcock’s divorce may have contributed to his depression. (The divorce date was Nov.30, 2021 when transiting Mars was precisely conjunct his Scorpio ascendant.)

3. Saturn in Gemini is the dispositor of Mars in Capricorn, the exo/eso ruler of Scorpio soul purpose. Mars was precisely opposed by transiting Jupiter in Cancer, considerably emphasising personal burdens or unreachable goals that Wilcock had set himself. Also the theme of Mars in the 2^nd house of money, possessions and assets – Jupiter must have amplified his financial position to an overwhelming degree.

Jupiter was also in the Scorpionic eighth house of death and “other people’s money”, suggesting debts to financial institutions. Apparently Wilcock lost a $1.5 million investment in a dubious company – Stavatti Aerospace.

His house was on the market but he could not sell it to meet his mortgage payments, he stated that he had “run out of money”. Jupiter was also prominent in the event chart (see below) conjunct a Cancer ascendant (house, property, resources) – and totally unaspected.

4. Progressed Moon and Mercury in Aries opposite Uranus in Libra. In many ways Wilcock might be regarded as quite Uranian, due to his interests in the sciences and the esoteric. Regarded as eccentric by some, but in a spirit of exploration and discovery, alloyed with a boyish charm and loving disposition that endeared him to many. Uranus is the esoteric ruler of Libra and in its own 11^th house:

“The forces transmitted by Uranus, via the eleventh house, and will ultimately give place to group consciousness and group relationships and group work.

Hence the trend towards amalgamation today, towards federation, spheres of action and the many groups which distinguish increasingly human intercourse. The group spirit and the forms through which it will express itself are being increasingly demonstrated and this constitutes a veritable initiation for the race.”27

Progressed Mercury in the sign of its esoteric rulership (opposite natal Uranus), with strong intuitive qualities, must have felt tantalisingly close to major realisations for Wilcock – e.g. disclosure. The progressed Moon in Aries, following close behind would have strengthened many new horizons to be explored by this adventurous sign. But perhaps that was another overwhelm factor too.

But this kind of natal Uranus stimulation can also trigger the unexpected, a theme which Uranus carries. Aries rules firearms and there was a large presence of planets transiting through Aries: Neptune, Saturn, Mercury, Mars and Chiron.

5. Saturn, Mercury, Mars conjunction in Aries. The close conjunction of these three planets must have been a contributing force to Wilcock’s suicide by firearm. Especially when considering Aries ruler Mars in its own sign – and ruler of his Scorpio ascendant, a sign known for its ruthlessness – to self or others. Saturn-Mars on its own can create huge pressure and frustration.

All three planets were closely trine Neptune in Sagittarius in the first house of the physical body. Neptune rising is the mystic and the visionary, the film maker and paranormal investigator. Neptune in Sagittarius is the planet of idealism in the sign of idealism, where the Neptune/Mars-ruled sixth ray of devotion and idealism finds its strongest expression – hence fanaticism is never far away. The sixth ray was most probably in Wilcock’s ray structure.

Some 16 hours earlier to his death, transiting Moon in Gemini opposed his Neptune, perhaps reminding him of ideals that had not been achieved, or been frustrated in expressing – of pie-in-the-sky dreams that were crashing down.

Neptune in Sagittarius can carry a strong degree of naivety. A comment about Wilcock that might reflect this – from hundreds  of other online perspectives:

“Psychologically, this reads like a classic inertia threshold breakdown moment: the point at which a long-accumulated delusional structural investment in self, reinforced by fame, income, and adoration, can no longer absorb contradictory evidence.

The embarrassment would have been crushing. Not merely personal disillusionment, but the public realization that one had spent decades encouraging others to invest emotionally and financially in a narrative that was, in the end, untenable. For a man who had positioned himself as a beacon of cosmic optimism, the sudden awareness of having inadvertently participated in a collective self-deception may have felt intolerable.

The same audience that had once amplified his confidence now became an imagined jury passing silent judgment. In that light, the cheerful bravado of “No fear!” and “I do have a positive view” reads less like genuine hope and more like a final, desperate assertion of the old operating system—one last attempt to outrun the collapse that had already begun.”28

Saturn-Mercury-Mars were also in a close semi-sextile to his natal Venus in Pisces – and solar arc Mars conjunct his Venus. Again, dwelling on lost love, broken relationships, estrangement from family. This for a person who had all those Pisces planets in the 4th house of home and family. Also, transiting Venus had only just entered Wilcock’s 7^th house of marriage and relationships a few days before his death, further emphasising the relationship theme.

6. On the fateful day of April 20, transiting Venus in Taurus was opposite solar arc Pluto in Scorpio, both in an exact T-square formation to Mars in Aquarius – all in the 26^th degree of their respective signs. Here was another intense challenge to transform relationships that  added another daunting obstacle.

7. Transiting Sun in Taurus square Jupiter and transiting Pluto inAquarius. The sun was also moving into Wilcock’s 6th house of health and healing, reminding him of his diabetes health predicament. The Sun was closely squaring Jupiter and transiting Pluto in Aquarius – which can stimulate exaggerated or even a fatalistic state of mind.

Jupiter in Aquarius in the 3rd house – ruled by Uranus in the 11th house, was one of Wilcock’s primary skills in blending and disseminating science alloyed with a mystical perspective.

8. Transiting Uranus moving into Gemini. A few days later, Uranus entered Gemini and many people were feeling it even weeks before. A certain excitement or even overwhelm about new ideas and innovations, a sense of impending shock and disruption, plus the instability of Gemini – reflected by a certain Gemini president!

Transiting Uranus entered Gemini for a few months in 2025 and trined Wilcock’s Uranus-ruled Jupiter in Aquarius, no doubt giving him much positive stimulation. As esoteric ruler of Aquarius, Jupiter is the water-bearer who pours forth for “those who thirst” – from the urn carrying the waters of Love-Wisdom that the Aquarian server bears upon his shoulders.

Given all of the above, it goes a long way to saying that Wilcock took his own life – even stated in his 911 call, where he discussed his health issues and financial concerns, saying, “I need to leave.” His suicide was also witnessed by a police officer attending the scene and confirmed by a statement from his family who,

“… affirmed that the author “took his own life on April 20, 2026”, following a prolonged battle with depression and insurmountable financial debt. “His family, and chosen family, hope this loss encourages more focused attention to mental health care access”. Remembering him as a man who “laughed easily and had a big heart,” they said: “Like many young people, he experienced painful periods of struggle and difficulty.”

“Beyond his public persona, he was a human navigating the same complexities and vulnerabilities that shape all our lives,” the family stated. “His passing is a reminder of how important it is to meet one another with open minds and compassion in our hearts. The loss of a life can turn our focus to our shared humanity, whether we agree on life’s unanswered questions or not.”29

Nevertheless, there will be and are, thousands who are insisting that Wilcock was “taken out” or was abducted. There are many followers and online psychics who claim to have had contact with Wilcock since his death, with one saying that he had been taken by aliens to another planet for his own protection, and that he would be returning at some point to spearhead the ultimate disclosure.

Wilcock chose suicide, understanding the spiritual implications of such an act – though not necessarily at the time. One can only imagine the turmoil that gave a sense of suffocation: “The death by suffocation in Scorpio releases man into the planetary centre which we call the Hierarchy.”30 There is a possibility that Wilcock may have beendriven by disincarnate entities whispering encouragement to take his life, not an unusual phenomenon. Another comment on depression and suicide:

“ … the individual learns to use the light of the mind, generated by the soul as it becomes closely related to the personality and impulsed by the intuition. By means of this light the disciple learns to dissipate his personal and private glamours. I mention this because I would have you appreciate the extent of the task a man undertakes when he consciously sets about ridding himself of glamour preparatory to extended service.

He is in conflict then with the whole glamour of the entire plane and is apt to be overwhelmed by a realisation of what he is facing. This is one of the causes of the deep depression and those profound inferiority complexes which render some people completely futile – or lead eventually to suicide.

Their own personal glamours tie them in to national or planetary glamour and thus condition their life expression and their thinking … They are as they are because their individual glamour is fed by the greater glamours, and this is as yet too much for them.”31

The Event Horoscope

Event Chart for David Wilcock’s passing: 11:05:27 – witnessed by a police deputy.

Time and space do not allow for an exhaustive analysis of this event chart, suffice for a few points worth mentioning:

1. Jupiter conjunct and Cancer ascendant, unaspected to any other part of the chart. Cancer the family, biological and non-biological. Jupiter exalted in Cancer, prominent by transit to his Mars in Capricorn. Jupiter the ruler of the second ray of Love-Wisdom – which may well have been his soul ray.

2. Cancer’s esoteric ruler is Neptune, also ruler of his Pisces planets – the most elevated planet in the horoscope, conjunct and ruling the Pisces midheaven. Considering Neptune in its lower expression, this reflects Wilcock’s confused state of mind at the time of suicide. (Others might interpret it as public deception of a conspiracy.)

The midheaven is in the last (anaretic) degree of Pisces, commented upon earlier in this newsletter – the solar eclipse of Sept. 2025 and the new moon of Pisces 2026, both of which activated Wilcock’s Mercury in Pisces. Mercury had already been getting much stimulation in the past couple of years from the transits of Neptune and Saturn.

The effects from Saturn would have been particularly challenging, given that Mercury rules his 8th house of shared resources, death and rebirth. Uranus in Taurus was also exactly sextile the Pisces midheaven, bringing in the theme of taking radical action.

3. A large stellium of planets in Aries – in the 10th house of career, social status and public reputation. A high profile death for someone already widely known to the public. Unbearable pressure, especially Saturn in its own house, conjunct Mars.

4. Mars-Chiron midpoint in Aries square Jupiter in Cancer. A configuration which encourages anyone to confront wounds related to identity and assertiveness, whilst nurturing oneself and others, thereby strengthening family ties.

5. Moon in Gemini semi-square Sun in Taurus. A very fickle position for the moon that had just conjoined natal Saturn in Gemini, feeling the weight of responsibility. Gemini blows hot and cold, will I or won’t I? This aspect triggers the Sun square Pluto touched upon earlier – health crisis overwhelm and taking drastic action for it and a host of other issues.

As noted earlier, whatever one’s perspective on David Wilcock, there are lessons for all who tread the Path, regardless of their stage of evolution or initiatory status. We wish him well for his ongoing journey, his current 49 days in bardo where there will be a life review and planning for the next incarnation. (Some readers might be interested in this article on suicide from Edgar Cayce’s ARE – Association for Research and Enlightenment.)

Wesak Valley.

This Wesak full moon in Scorpio-Taurus, falls precisely on Wilcock’s natal moon in Taurus – and his progressed Sun in Taurus, which will be exactly conjunct his moon by Nov.2027.

Hence, a sense of endings and beginnings – this prog. Sun on Moon has a new moon kind of symbology that will serve as a seed of the future. Departing on a full moon, whatever the circumstance of death – has to be auspicious, especially on the Wesak Festival:

“During the Wesak Festival … Those Who are seeking to lift humanity nearer to the Light and to expand the consciousness of mankind, will be gathering Their forces for a renewed approach with its inevitable consequences. These consequences are the stimulation of the human family to a fresh spiritual effort …

… bringing about the strengthening of the New Group of World Servers so that they can work with greater effectiveness, vision the Plan with greater clarity and—within themselves as a group—bring about greater integration. Thus they can aid in carrying out the plans of the Council of the Hierarchy to meet the immediate human emergency.

The plans for humanity are not laid down, for humanity determines its own destiny; the effort is directed towards establishing a closer relationship between humanity and the Hierarchy.”32
