The War Begins

3/7/202643 min

In this episode I provide an astrological analysis of the war that began between the US, Israel, and Iran on February 28, 2026, and discuss how these current alignments may be signaling the beginning of a much larger conflict. I look at the striking historical recurrences that culminated in this week's events, including the recent Saturn-Neptune conjunction, which perfectly echoes the 1953 US-backed coup and the 1989 death of Iran's Supreme Leader, and the exact Mars-Uranus square that triggered the initial strikes. I also explore the extraordinary fact that all three of three major leaders involved were all born on the exact day of an eclipse. From there, I trace the precise six-month escalation of this conflict through the eclipse seasons dating back to October 2023, demonstrating how eclipses have mirrored the buildup to this war almost every step of the way. Finally, we look ahead to the looming ingress of Uranus into Gemini in late April, a transit historically correlated with the United States entering its most defining wars (the Revolutionary War, the Civil War, and WWII), and discuss why the pieces are now in place for this to escalate into a larger global conflict.

On Saturday, February 28th, the US and Israel began a direct war with Iran targeting military infrastructure and leadership, and in the opening wave of strikes, the supreme leader of Iran was killed and assassinated by airstrikes. So this was anticipated on the podcast, and we've talked about this a lot over the past couple of months, and the timing is a stunning convergence of both long-term planetary cycles as well as a sequence of eclipses and eclipse repetitions that I'd like to cover in this video and provide an analysis of in order to give people some perspective on the astrology of this event and of the beginning of this war. All right. So first things first is long-term planetary recurrences because in late February, on February 20th, we had the Saturn-Neptune conjunction go exact, which only happens every thirty-six years and is a pretty rare and unique and important planetary alignment. So as we've noted in previous episodes, a year ago, my friend Nick Dagan Best and I did a whole episode on Saturn-Neptune conjunctions in history over the past two thousand years, and we noted that these were very important in the history of Iran, especially over the past century. Uh, most notably, one of the repetitions that's happening right now is in 1953, there was a Saturn-Neptune conjunction, and in that year, the US was
