The Astrology Behind Charlie Kirk Shooting | What It Means for America's Future

[00:00:05] greetings. I'm Kyle Pierce. This is the Astrology Channel, and today we're going to be doing [00:00:10] something a little bit new It has always been my intention to eventually bring in the discussion of [00:00:15] current events in some

form, on this channel.

because while many of us get into astrology, [00:00:20] because we're looking for context within our own lives, we're looking for

a way to understand [00:00:25] ourselves, understand

and connect with our lives in a deeper way.

Astrology is also this powerful tool [00:00:30] for giving us.

Another angle

by which to approach understanding the

[00:00:35] world that we find ourselves in

While the particular topic that, uh, I'm gonna begin [00:00:40] this

way of applying astrology on this channel

might be construed as.

[00:00:45] Opportunistic, right? ' cause everybody and their mother is saying something about

the assassination of Charlie [00:00:50] Kirk. Truthfully, it is

less the assassination of Charlie Kirk that I'm interested in [00:00:55] and more in answering the question why I

does this event seem to

[00:01:00] be having so much impact

in the world. Why? Is it such a big part of the conversation [00:01:05] and why

is it

seeming to pour gasoline on events and trends, which are [00:01:10] already a well established part of how we most of us experience or [00:01:15] observe

what's happening at the world at large?

what we're gonna be doing here is [00:01:20] not, an in-depth character study on Charlie Kirk.

Though I'm sure some, you know, things about his character [00:01:25] as they're describing the chart will naturally arise. my intention is to [00:01:30] look at the event of the assassination, as it

pertains to his birth chart [00:01:35] as a transit. You know, how it might be.

Connecting to his chart, how it might, describe [00:01:40] what, what happened, why it happened. But we're also going to take a look at how

[00:01:45] his chart in this event connect to

other things, because again, a [00:01:50] lot of people get shot, sadly in the United States,

and some of them are influential [00:01:55] figures. Some of them in, you know, the recent past have been actual elected officials such as [00:02:00] the Democratic state senators that were shot, several months ago, Which did not elicit [00:02:05] nearly as much public reaction as Charlie Kirk's assassination.

So as we connect this [00:02:10] event to other charts

and other events, and we start to build a picture of maybe [00:02:15] how this event connects to other things, through astrology, we maybe start to understand [00:02:20] where things might be going and what this event means.

Or at least understand it a little bit better than you [00:02:25] did, when you started watching this video. So with that, let's get [00:02:30] started looking at I,

the birth chart of Charlie Kirk, who

we unfortunately do not have a birth time for. [00:02:35] So I'm just gonna be using the

chart cast for noon on the day that he was born [00:02:40] on October 14th, 1993 in Arlington Heights, Illinois.

[00:02:45]

So

first I wanna draw your attention to the placement of the sun at 21 degrees of [00:02:50] Libra.

Again, ignore the house placement. We don't know what house

the sun was placed in,

and even

[00:02:55] those who claim to have rectified his chart may have good reasons for drawing a conclusion [00:03:00] about

the time of his birth. At the end of the day, we're still always gonna be speculating on that unless we actually [00:03:05] have the recorded birth time from the birth certificate. so when it comes to the sun, you [00:03:10] know, we're always looking at the sun for things related to.

how that person forms their [00:03:15] idea of who they are and how other people form their idea of who they are. [00:03:20] 'cause the sun is the.

The name, right? The idea of who a person is, [00:03:25] the image in a sense,

and just, like an idea or an image can [00:03:30] exist perfectly in our minds. You know, it can often be corrupted as we try to translate it [00:03:35] into the world.

And the sun will often describe our experience with that,

who are we trying to be and how [00:03:40] easy is that for us to, I realize that or have other people see

what we hold [00:03:45] to be true inside. Right?

So what do we know about the sun in Libra? Well, [00:03:50] we know that Libras a

social relational sign.

So [00:03:55] Charlie was social and he related to people. Okay. That's, you know, most people to one [00:04:00] degree or another. but a big part of the meaning of the sun in Libra is that it is the sign of the [00:04:05] sun's fall,

which doesn't mean that it's a bad sun or a, an evil sun, it means that [00:04:10] the things that the sun tries to do

or the things that in our lives that we try to do, as they [00:04:15] correspond to the sun,

are things which we tend to get, confused about.

Or we encounter a [00:04:20] certain kind of a catch 22, if you will.

That's sort of tailor made to

get that [00:04:25] planet's goat to one degree or another. and for the sun,

who wants to develop [00:04:30] an idea of self, who wants to, you know, stand

as a whole [00:04:35] individual and project its will into the world.

When the sun is in Libra, it gets.

[00:04:40] Caught up or hung up on

the focused or the interest in what others are doing or what [00:04:45] others are seeing or thinking,

which is not, a bad thing. It's good [00:04:50] to be, focused on others or to be able to focus on others

and consider how our actions [00:04:55] affect other people.

But often for the son and Libra, it gets confused about

who they [00:05:00] are personally,based on the feedback or response they're getting from other people.

And the need to, [00:05:05] I

be liked, essentially,

can cause the person to [00:05:10] identify with things which aren't necessarily them.

Because it gets a positive response.

And [00:05:15] that's often the thing with, planets in their fall, is that from the outside they often look [00:05:20] successful and productive or they, they seem to

be good at

achieving sort of superficial [00:05:25] results in the realm of that planet,

at least for a time. However, there is, Often a hard time, [00:05:30] realizing satisfaction with those results because on some level, they're not

[00:05:35] based on the true goals or what is truly good for the things [00:05:40] that that planet, is associated with. So anyway,

we might, To draw a conclusion [00:05:45] that

being somebody to someone or to people, was important to him

may be [00:05:50] very important to him.

So he sought the approval of, some group of people.

But we might look [00:05:55] to other conditions of that son for more information on

not he was [00:06:00] successful in gaining the approval of some group or another. And if so, What [00:06:05] kind of group or in what way did he go about it? Right.

So

the first thing that we have to note is that the [00:06:10] sun is a pretty closely conjunct Jupiter. Jupiter's at 24 degrees of Libra. [00:06:15] And the sun is applying. So at least as far as the sun is concerned,

it's receiving some kind of [00:06:20] affirmation or

some kind of a door has maybe been opened, for this person and their, [00:06:25] their public life at some point. And I think that's that's true, right? He, [00:06:30] uh, from what I know, he began.

His involvement in politics

very early on in life,

while [00:06:35] growing up in Chicago, he was as many Libra type folk are, a bit of a [00:06:40] contrarian. and we like to think of Libras as agreeable and

they can be, uh, [00:06:45] when.

They perceive being agreeable as ha being

what,results in the proper [00:06:50] balance, of that given relationship.

But just as often, Libra people will [00:06:55] be identifying an imbalance and

seeking to present themselves as a counterweight to [00:07:00] that perceived imbalance.

So I think we can maybe assume that he, identified strongly with [00:07:05] that role. That his beliefs, which, you know, the sun being very closely configured to [00:07:10] Jupiter were very important to him.

And that living and presenting himself in accordance [00:07:15] with his beliefs, was of paramount importance as it is for most Sun Jupiter [00:07:20] people.

And we also see that the sun, is applying to a trine with Saturn in [00:07:25] Aquarius.

So we might insert, a sense of duty in

how he chose [00:07:30] to direct his activity.

And with Saturn and Aquarius, we get,a sense of being [00:07:35] bound

or a sense of duty to step outside of the norm.

You maybe get a, a [00:07:40] double a doubling down of this sense of Charlie, maybe as a, a [00:07:45] contrarian

who identified strongly with his beliefs and a sense of, you know, principle.

But, [00:07:50] and this is the part that I, I do want to focus on more because this is gonna become very [00:07:55] relevant as we discuss, how this is tying into things. If we hone in on where [00:08:00] these planets are in their signs, we find more information about the specific qualities of [00:08:05] how those planets are, what those planets are dealing with, what they're signifying.

And part of how we do that is [00:08:10] we look at the deens, or I look at the deens, and you should too. [00:08:15] and the deens or faces are 10 degrees subdivisions of the zodiac, which slice [00:08:20] up each sign into three equal parts,

each with their own, particular flavor [00:08:25] and.

Particular set of, planetary ruler ships.

But when we look at [00:08:30] the sun and Jupiter, they're at 21 and 24 degrees of Libra [00:08:35] respectively. We're looking at the third decan of Libra, and the third decan of Libra

[00:08:40] is concerned with the idea of balance as all planets are and all of Libra. [00:08:45] But by the time we get to the third decken, we're dealing with extremes or we're dealing [00:08:50] with

a need to fit contradictory elements.

Into a balanced framework

to some degree. [00:08:55] We've, you know, moved beyond the idealism of the first Decan of [00:09:00] Libra, where we, you know, seek justice for all.

And we've maybe even moved on to [00:09:05] the, seeking of order through formalized agreement

and contractual [00:09:10] contractual obligation that we deal with in the second decan, second Decan of Libra.

But [00:09:15] in the third decan of Libra, we're dealing with, you know, the need to account [00:09:20] for and

make space for, things which lie outside of the

normal [00:09:25] rules or

parameters of socially acceptable conduct.

And learn to find [00:09:30] balance, uh, amidst extreme circumstances or

what, can often [00:09:35] be the case in this deck is the pursuit

or access to

inordinate [00:09:40] wealth or inordinate privilege.

and time and time again. I see, [00:09:45] what shows up in Libra three, not for everybody, but very often, is [00:09:50] this

window into the world of the lifestyles and the [00:09:55] codes of conduct as understood by the

super wealthy or the,[00:10:00] privileged or of high status, who, you know, maybe have the, the means and power [00:10:05] to not be beholden to the same set of laws and standards that.

[00:10:10] Everybody else does.

And within those circles, you know, they understand their role and they don't advertise it [00:10:15] per se. or at least it's, generally in poor taste to,

we might, find the particular [00:10:20] circle that Charlie Kirk, tended to run in while, you know, very much [00:10:25] very unpopular in high school with his peers. He did make good [00:10:30] friends and did find a sense of belonging.

In the fellowship of, rich, old, [00:10:35] white, conservative men. that was, you know, the people that, accepted him.

[00:10:40] Maybe it's 'cause they liked him or maybe it's 'cause they saw a young guy who wanted to promote [00:10:45] conservative ideology, amongst the young who wanted to make conservatism [00:10:50] cool.

Which, you know, served the interests of,

of the, the rich old white men. Right.

It [00:10:55] also served his need for belonging. Right. And facilitated the role that he [00:11:00] saw himself playing in the world.

and I think we have to bring in, some of the [00:11:05] specifics of Saturn's placement in the third decan of Aquarius, where we're often dealing with [00:11:10] more complex and deeply entrenched.

Systems or relationships

in [00:11:15] 36 faces, Austin Coppock calls this decan the knot

and you get this idea [00:11:20] of

something that is very tangled and messy and deeply intertwined and, [00:11:25] cannot be unraveled.

Without considerable time and effort and care.

And I think for [00:11:30] Charlie, we see, he was

very much concerned about tackling,a social [00:11:35] order, that has signified by Saturn and Aquarius, which.

He experienced as, [00:11:40] you know, maleic or negative, that he wanted to [00:11:45] unravel

and he had dedicated his life to that process.

And really to [00:11:50] move a little faster through this chart 'cause we could be here all day. we wanna take a look at

the fact that, [00:11:55] uh, Pluto is very closely squared Saturn. So Pluto what it intensifies, [00:12:00] it polarizes.

It might create a, a sense of obsession or paranoia around, you know, the [00:12:05] topics which it,touches, which

I think it's a, a fair statement to say, that [00:12:10] would have been true for him, regardless of your

personal stance on [00:12:15] his beliefs.

Certainly makes, The knot which he sees in the [00:12:20] world,

represent that much more dire of a threat

in something which he might be more willing to

[00:12:25] approach or try to tackle, by any means necessary.

A willingness to take extreme measures.

We also [00:12:30] have to consider, uh, also in Scorpio, Mars, and Mercury, which, you know, he, [00:12:35] his, his thing was public debate, right? And he was known for. His [00:12:40] gotcha moments, right? Which is, very Mars mercurian, Scorpio kind of [00:12:45] setting up the trap,

luring you in, and then once you're ensnared, pouncing, [00:12:50] right? for him, that was, largely verbal. But we want to take note that [00:12:55] Mars is in Scorpio and very, very strong,

which is going to make Mars transits more [00:13:00] potent regardless of where they,

you know, what they happen to be hitting

So finally, I, [00:13:05] and certainly not, least important, we wanna look at Venus. Uh, 28 degrees of Virgo,

[00:13:10] which is also in the sign of its fall.

And like any planet in, in its fall, it, tries very [00:13:15] hard to accomplish what it wants, which is, something venusian, an [00:13:20] ideal of perfection and harmony.

Perhaps a sense of, um,a very. [00:13:25] Rigid idea of, proper relationships between people as well as maybe [00:13:30] between, men and women.

And people with Venus, Virgo often have very strong [00:13:35] dislikes. they get grossed out easily,

which can make them very effective in achieving very [00:13:40] refined, results in terms of, perfecting the form of something. But often there's [00:13:45] a, something lost in the,

in the equation that a lot of people with Venus and [00:13:50] Virgo struggle with.

In trying to achieve perfection, we lose

what was truly beautiful, about [00:13:55] the thing.

But we know that that Venus is very important regardless of what the rising sign [00:14:00] is, because it rules both the moon and the sun, which represents both the [00:14:05] luminaries, the sun and moon,

which are always a big deal, as well as Jupiter. So Venus is [00:14:10] playing a very big role. So we might think that transits to Venus might have, [00:14:15] an especially profound impact on his life.

So with that in mind, let's [00:14:20] take a look at

the transits that were taking place on the day that he [00:14:25] was shot.

All right, so we'll keep this real simple 'cause we got a lot to cover here. [00:14:30] Um,let's start with just the most obvious transit in this chart. we see that

on the day [00:14:35] that he was shot on.

September 2025. Mars was at 22 degrees of Libra,

[00:14:40] so within, a degree of a conjunction with his natal sun, 21 [00:14:45] degrees of Libra.

This also would've been, about to form a conjunction with Jupiter. So [00:14:50] we have a Mars transit to, both of those planets. We, we don't know how close the moon is [00:14:55] to that situation because the moon will cover about 13 degrees in a day, [00:15:00] so it could be.

As early as three or four degrees of Libra and as late [00:15:05] as

17 or so degrees of Libra.

So notable Mars Transit. But, hey, [00:15:10] Mars

forms a conjunction to all of our planets at least once every [00:15:15] 19 months or so.

So does, Mars transiting the sun and [00:15:20] Jupiter, you know, potentially describe.

Him a, uh, being a son thing, you know, being [00:15:25] at, in the center of a crowd espousing his beliefs with Jupiter.

Uh, does it potentially represent a [00:15:30] moment where, you know, he is attacked or, more at risk? Absolutely. but that [00:15:35] alone doesn't necessarily

me mean we would draw the conclusion that that's what would happen on this [00:15:40] day.

Now, if we had his birth time, we might look at

how activated by timing [00:15:45] techniques was

the sun or the house that, the Sun and Jupiter and the moon are in,

or [00:15:50] how activated is Mars? Us

We might look for something like, Mars being

placed in a [00:15:55] prominent part of the chart. On, an ankle of some kind. we know that it's in its own sign.

And [00:16:00] if particularly activated, you know, those Mars transits are gonna be louder.

I'm sure it'd be very [00:16:05] interesting to go, you know, back through his life and take a look at Mars Transits and see how he [00:16:10] responded to them, at different points in his life, what kind of things happened.

But we're not gonna go that far down the rabbit [00:16:15] hole here today. But what else, what else is going on? Well, remember how we mentioned that Venus, [00:16:20] which rules both the sun, the moon, and Jupiter,

has a lot of influence [00:16:25] regardless of

what the rising sign is.

So transits to Venus as [00:16:30] well as Venus' activation by various timing techniques, might,correspond with, you know, more impactful [00:16:35] events.

And what we can see here is that, Saturn, which recently [00:16:40] just ingress back into Pisces,

is at 29 degrees of Pisces and applying to an [00:16:45] opposition with Venus,

which uh, would, you know, represent a potentially negating [00:16:50] influence on

the things which that planet represents,

which we at minimum know that, [00:16:55] uh. Venus is responsible for a, a lot in his chart.

So at least as far as the [00:17:00] sun is concerned, we have both a Mars transit to the sun, potential attack on the [00:17:05] sun directly, and then

a,secondary maleic influence on the ruling planet of the [00:17:10] sun.

So while Mars, you know, attacks directly, it punches you in the face or shoots [00:17:15] you, Saturn tends to deny or negate or neglect or.

[00:17:20] So perhaps, you know,

certainly some criticism taking place, or somebody who, didn't [00:17:25] think highly of Charlie. there were many people who did not. But

this could also [00:17:30] represent because, the sun and Jupiter and potentially the moon are all favored,configured [00:17:35] favorably to Saturn. Through a, a rine that's both, sensitizes [00:17:40] them to, things that happen around Saturn. But

it could [00:17:45] represent

a lack of support from someone or from a group [00:17:50] that would be considered on other circumstances, an ally, which could just [00:17:55] be, you know, his bodyguards not, being where they needed to be at [00:18:00] the the time am

or it could suggest other things, which I won't speculate too much [00:18:05] on, but.

It certainly represents a, a negating influence and really the, the cherry [00:18:10] on top, if not the whole ice cream really has to be the [00:18:15] eclipse, which

had not taken place yet. I,

and depending on when you're watching this video, may [00:18:20] have not taken place yet either. but

the transit that.

Was looming in the future [00:18:25] was this eclipse, right on top of his [00:18:30] Venus, which was opposed by Saturn.

And eclipses often, represents something being taken [00:18:35] away or, especially when it's with the south node a, sudden or notable absence.

the [00:18:40] particular significations of the third decan of Virgo, where the eclipse is taking place and [00:18:45] where Venus is, as well as the third decan of Pisces.

Where Saturn is, there's [00:18:50] some profound themes around

the end of things. either the end of the physical [00:18:55] body or the, the final result,when a desire has been pursued to its [00:19:00] ultimate end. and the question, was it all worth it

is asked or, you know, what [00:19:05] remains after, after the spirit has left the body?

And I, I do find it interesting that a lot of the [00:19:10] conversation at the time of recording this, surrounds, Charlie Kirk's legacy and, [00:19:15] legacy is very much one of the main topics of concern in the third decan of Fargo. It's [00:19:20] represented by the 10 of Pentacles card

and a lot of the images associated with this decan are, uh, surround mummies [00:19:25] and,

you know, dead things. but uh, in a sense, living things which have been reduced to [00:19:30] statues,

there's a concern with preserving things

so that they last [00:19:35] beyond

the time in which, you know. The spirit dwelled within, within the thing [00:19:40] we're trying to preserve. So, I would expect, some significant [00:19:45] events, or developments maybe around I,

both as public legacy, but as well as his organization, which he

[00:19:50] had turned into quite a powerful political machine and that I know, I believe his wife is intending to take [00:19:55] over.

But that'll be cer certainly something to watch, whether that indicating more.

Specific and [00:20:00] significant events in the future,

or because of the way eclipses work is they kind of have [00:20:05] this, timeframe under which they work. And sometimes you'll see the significations of the eclipse playing [00:20:10] out, before the actual, eclipse event itself. and sometimes well [00:20:15] after. But there's a big red target painted on the last, last degree or two of [00:20:20] Virgo as well as Pisces.

And the eclipse taking place there, signifies in a more general [00:20:25] way, something which is

been long enduring and perhaps, you know, [00:20:30] held together through careful arrangements, potentially having,

an [00:20:35] important piece in that arrangement. Which causes, its collapse or disintegration.

[00:20:40] The image that, uh, uh, came to mind for me recently in a conversation [00:20:45] about this decken and this eclipse, if you've ever seen the movie Weekend at Bernie's,

where the, the two young gentlemen [00:20:50] are staying at Bernie's house, Bernie's a rich guy, and he dies [00:20:55] suddenly. And for various reasons, the two young gentlemen decide to

[00:21:00] prop Bernie up and carry him around over the weekend to make everybody believe that he's still alive, [00:21:05] which, you know, fantastic movie. If you haven't seen it, go watch it. but this is maybe [00:21:10] suggesting that that which has been, propped up and

been given the [00:21:15] appearance of, life and vitality potentially

being revealed, to be [00:21:20] in a state of decay.

You know, you might be able to prop, Burning up for a weekend and get away with it. [00:21:25] But, eventually, you know, his, his skin's gonna start, deteriorating. He's gonna start smelling [00:21:30] bad, parts of him are gonna start, bloating and falling off. So we are, [00:21:35] reaching the end of the weekend at Bernie's

and I'm, you know, curious to see how that applies [00:21:40] both to Charlie and what, you know, remains of his [00:21:45] life. because our, our charts continue to work even after we aren't around. the [00:21:50] things which are associated with us, you know, still carry, carry their relationship to us [00:21:55] in our lives. So.

Major transits, even post-mortem, will often have [00:22:00] profound impact on the things of us which remain.

But finally, before we start tying [00:22:05] this, back into other charts I wanna revisit, Mars.

'

I think we may find [00:22:10] that, Mars'

position, as well as its configuration to other. Important [00:22:15] charts is, perhaps telling us quite a bit about this event and its significance.

[00:22:20] so as previously discussed, Mr. Kirk had been in the midst of a [00:22:25] transit of Mars to his natal son at the time of his death. [00:22:30] And you know, big deal, right? We all have Mars conjoining planets in our chart on a [00:22:35] regular basis. And, you know, most of us don't, get shot when that happens. [00:22:40] And again, without the birth time, we don't, you know, see other activations or know how other things might be [00:22:45] lining up timing wise to more or less open the gates to this [00:22:50] Mars transit.

But we have to assume that it's important because it does quite literally describe [00:22:55] the event in question.

and if we take a look at the chart for the moment of the shooting in [00:23:00] question, which we would cast for September 10th, 2025 at 12:23 [00:23:05] PM in OEM Utah, Mars is showing itself to be quite [00:23:10] important in the chart for that moment because we get, 20 degrees Scorpio rising. [00:23:15] Which means that Mars, which rules the sign of Scorpio, is serving as the [00:23:20] primary significator what is arising in that moment.

now, obviously [00:23:25] Scorpio rises once every day. So does Aries

and most of us, don't find ourselves [00:23:30] subject to violent attack,twice on any given day, nor does the world, erupt into [00:23:35] violence every time that Mars rules the sign that is rising or, you know, becomes [00:23:40] prominent in some way. But you can more or less think of the chart for any given moment [00:23:45] representing an opportunity for planets in their given position to plug in [00:23:50] to people or other entities, which, uh,

bear the stamp of [00:23:55] some astrological imprint. These are essentially moments of increased opportunity for [00:24:00] planets to plug in to things which, you know, are receptive to what that planet wants to do, [00:24:05] which can just be one of, you know, many, many, many, different stacking [00:24:10] indicators. Because with, in astrology, we're always looking at many layers of [00:24:15] activity, through which the planets, signify events.

And we can't always look at all of [00:24:20] them all the time. So we look at the ones that, you know, we have access to that we have time to, [00:24:25] uh, 'cause you can spend a lot of time dissecting these things, but, you know, what's the loudest, a [00:24:30] transit can be pretty loud. And in a sense, this chart is telling us that Mars,[00:24:35] signifying the topic in the most specific way, is something we need to pay close attention [00:24:40] to, to maybe help us understand what, what's going on here.

And so, in this chart, not only [00:24:45] is Mars ruling the sign that is rising. Which counts for at least one point [00:24:50] in Mars's checkbox of empowerment we'll say.

But we also see that [00:24:55] Mars is ruling the hour, which if you're not familiar with the concept of the planetary days and [00:25:00] hours, that's okay. Just know that, there's a system which, [00:25:05] that describes moments of special empowerment for a planet [00:25:10] every day. And so, if you are planning an event where you [00:25:15] really want to empower a particular planet in that moment and, you know, draw down its [00:25:20] influence, timing your operation to

correspond with the hour of that [00:25:25] planet is one of several things that you're gonna want to do. So we get at least one more [00:25:30] stacking testimony, which describes Mars being especially empowered in this moment. the [00:25:35] Moon is also ruled by Mars, so there's another point on the scorecard for [00:25:40] Mars.

It has a, a moment to do its thing,

and interestingly, you can maybe [00:25:45] see that Mars is somewhat supported in what it wants to do. It [00:25:50] has a, a sextile from Venus and a square from Jupiter,

and most of the time we expect to [00:25:55] see benign planets like Venus or Jupiter. When in a, a [00:26:00] position to have an influence over a planet like Mars, a maleic planet, which signifies, you know, [00:26:05] something maleic happening, we expect to see those planets mitigate or sometimes [00:26:10] mollify or soften the maleic expression of those planets.

And, you know, sometimes that's [00:26:15] true, but also you'll often see fic planets simply enabling [00:26:20] that planet to do its thing, lending its, support. And assisting the planet in, [00:26:25] its intended operation.

that generally, you know, just depends on the context, but traditionally. [00:26:30] A maleic planet supported by a benefic planet was considered to be favorable [00:26:35] for the, the native or the, the person

whose life is signified by the [00:26:40] chart,

but at the expense of others, which, is always, something to considerate when you're dealing [00:26:45] with, good and bad. You know, good for who, bad for who

some things are, [00:26:50] you know, good for everybody. Other things are good for some people at the expense of other people. [00:26:55] And usually when we're dealing with Mars things we're dealing with [00:27:00] win-lose scenarios.

now,

depending on how you're approaching the chart, you can interpret it [00:27:05] multiple ways. A planet will describe more than one thing

and may describe it differently depending on [00:27:10] context?

but one of the ways that we might look at this chart. Especially, we're specifically looking at a [00:27:15] conflict as we would if we were using some of the techniques outlined by Theophilus of Odessa,

who [00:27:20] was the court astrologer for the Ottoman Empire, I believe in the ninth century.

And [00:27:25] in his book, the Astrological Works of The Alos of Odessa, he outlines some of [00:27:30] the parameters for military astrology as part of his [00:27:35] role within the Ottoman Court was to elect times that were favorable [00:27:40] for the Salton to go to war.

I should say not the sultan, but it was a specific kli.

Regardless, [00:27:45] he outlined

a whole set of rules for electing charts, for military conflicts

[00:27:50] or for battles or all manner of military operations. And within that [00:27:55] framework, we assign the first house and the planet, which rules the first house [00:28:00] to the aggressor or the one who initiates or the conflict.

in this case, we actually

get [00:28:05] quite a bit that corresponds with what happened if we were to assign

[00:28:10] the first house and its ruler to

the aggressor or the initiator of the [00:28:15] activity in question, which is the assassination of Charlie Kirk. We would give the first house to [00:28:20] the

one who shot him, which currently the, the suspect.

Who is now in custody? [00:28:25] Tyler Robinson, we might presume is the particular individual, playing [00:28:30] that role. And we will take a look at his chart, but that would mean that Mars is ruling the [00:28:35] ascendant, ruling the first house. So

we would look to that planet for

the answer to the question of [00:28:40] whether or not whatever action this individual is initiating is going to be [00:28:45] successful. Now, within a military context when you're looking at, at the chart of a battle or a [00:28:50] war or any kind of conflict, we look to the seventh house as the [00:28:55] significant for the defender.

which in this case would be Charlie Kirk, the [00:29:00] opponent of the one initiating the action, the shooter. And so in this chart, [00:29:05] Taurus is on the seventh house, which is ruled by Venus. Venus is in Leo in [00:29:10] 19 degrees of Leo in the 10th hole sign house.

So in a very visible [00:29:15] place in a sign describing somebody who is

in Leo, a leader right in [00:29:20] the most visible part of the chart, while the shooter or the planet [00:29:25] which describes the shooter is Mars. Ruling the ascendant, which is in the, the 12th hole sign [00:29:30] house. So somewhere unseen, potentially doing something shady, sometimes [00:29:35] nefarious, or at minimum in a, a much less visible part of the chart.

And also being in the 12th [00:29:40] house, potentially doing something that isn't in the first house's best interest, that [00:29:45] may lead them to becoming incarcerated, which is one of the topics of the 12th [00:29:50] house.

So in this context, you know, how do we identify what of those things will [00:29:55] come to completion, right? And we see that, Venus, which rules the seventh house signifying Charlie, in [00:30:00] this context is applying to a, a tile with. Mars, [00:30:05] which, you know, a sextile is a favorable aspect. So is it describing [00:30:10] the shooter and Charlie, you know, becoming best friends?

Um, in this context, no, in this [00:30:15] context, it might be more accurate in describing that whatever Mars is trying [00:30:20] to accomplish with the seventh house will come to completion. Venus is in a, you [00:30:25] know, the very visible part of the chart in a sign that speaks to visibility and Leo. [00:30:30] So right there, where Mars can see it,

It's also notable that, Venus [00:30:35] rules the sign that Mars is in, in Libra, which means that there is reception [00:30:40] between Venus and Mars, which means that something will manifest, as a result of the [00:30:45] union. Of those two planets of the interaction between the two.

You could also say that, you know, [00:30:50] Venus is hosting Mars in that sign. Venus is supplying Mars with the topic, [00:30:55] with the reason that it's doing its thing, which in this case, you know, the reason that the [00:31:00] shooter is hidden on the roof where nobody can see him is because [00:31:05] Venus, Charlie is there in a very visible place.

So we might be able to [00:31:10] conclude that Mars is going to accomplish his task in whatever he wants to do with [00:31:15] the seventh house. The union between, you know, the first, the agenda of [00:31:20] the first house and the agenda of the seventh, those two will come together. Now also [00:31:25] baked into this, because Venus rules the 12th House might also suggest that.

the [00:31:30] topics of the first and the 12th will, will join that, you know, him being successful in this, [00:31:35] attempt will also, result in him becoming [00:31:40] incarcerated, which we can, see now in retrospect that that was presumably the case

[00:31:45] and it's until proven guilty. Right now, it's really wasn't my intention to go this in depth with [00:31:50] this chart,

Yeah. I really wanna zoom in on what is being described by Mars, [00:31:55] where it is in the Zodiac. Right. So, Mars traditionally is in its detriment [00:32:00] in Libra. It's not, a place where al activity is typically tolerated [00:32:05] or appropriate. In Libra, we observe the rule of law, you know, we're conscientious of [00:32:10] others.

We're, we're trying to maintain balance and equilibrium. So if Mars is in Libra, [00:32:15] it's potentially creating an imbalance or. He's describing, going [00:32:20] against the rule of law in order to achieve what is essentially, you [00:32:25] know, it Mars's own agenda. It's a Mars thing. Mars wants to win. but planets will [00:32:30] use the topic of that sign to color their behavior.

They'll try to [00:32:35] operate within the parameters of that sign where they're in a sense, [00:32:40] required to.

So Mars might, do a Mars thing, attack, sever, [00:32:45] cut, or commit an act of violence for the sake of harmony or for the sake of an [00:32:50] ideal of justice or balance.

Which I think is a, a likely [00:32:55] accurate description of the motive behind this particular shooting. And this gets, a bit [00:33:00] more descriptive and a bit more interesting when we zoom in on Mars' placement in the [00:33:05] third deck of Libra,

the topics of the third Decan of Libra become very relevant when [00:33:10] we try to understand what Mars is doing in this chart. they definitely become very [00:33:15] relevant when we. I try to understand, Charlie Kirk's life and his chart [00:33:20] and the context of his life and activity,

in the third decan of Libra, we have to [00:33:25] account for. The existence of many contrary elements. We discovered [00:33:30] that there is no, you know, static balance, but, balance must be maintained [00:33:35] within the awareness or interaction of many, opposing variables. and we learned that there [00:33:40] can be no, no rich without poor, no virtue, without vice, [00:33:45] and we have to sort of, make a place for all of it and maybe judge things more on a [00:33:50] case by case basis. This Decan sometimes has a quality of, uh, sort of an [00:33:55] extra judicial sense of justice, that justice and law aren't always [00:34:00] the same thing, and that there are perhaps times where it's.

Not appropriate [00:34:05] to adhere to the strict letter of the law, or that perhaps there is [00:34:10] no universal set of laws, that there's actually, many orders in a social context of [00:34:15] society, different sets of rules for different people

and perhaps different sets of rules for [00:34:20] different situations. And one of the recurring themes that I have found in this decan is, a [00:34:25] lot of the, a lot of situations which describe the social [00:34:30] environment of the elite, if you will, or the super wealthy who [00:34:35] by virtue of having, access to a much broader landscape [00:34:40] of experience and a, a wider palette of, vice in virtue, [00:34:45] but from which to partake.

That it sort of comes with its own set of [00:34:50] social expectation and conditions for what is considered appropriate to [00:34:55] conduct.

This is not a, an endorsement or condemnation of that paradigm. It's, simply [00:35:00] what is described there, or one of the things which I have found to be described there, and I think it's [00:35:05] something that we, you know, can certainly observe within wealthier classes, is that they, [00:35:10] tend to operate under their own set of rules and they tend to associate with each [00:35:15] other and part of how they,operate and form their codes of [00:35:20] conduct, if you will.

Is perhaps through this sort of, lens of exceptionalism,

which, you know, many view as being [00:35:25] unfair or, representing a, a imbalance. However, from [00:35:30] the, that lens, you might imagine that there's a, a natural, sort of, understanding or [00:35:35] acceptance that

the disparity, maybe income disparity is a natural. [00:35:40] Byproduct of the system and therefore, part of the balance of said system,

and that [00:35:45] there's also a degree of justifiable adherence to a different set [00:35:50] of rules because navigating that environment [00:35:55] requires, a different code of conduct. we'll just say for example, what is often the case with, [00:36:00] people who win the lottery, often that sudden, access to luxury, the ability [00:36:05] to indulge in, you know, many different things throws their life outta balance and.

Because they don't [00:36:10] have the, experience, with how to handle that kind of

wealth or access to, [00:36:15] to things, they don't know how to maintain balance within that paradigm. [00:36:20] They,lose balance with disastrous consequences.

Again, that's not an endorsement [00:36:25] of that worldview, it's just what is described.

And so often when I've seen planets in this [00:36:30] decen, in the third decan of Libra, I'll see experiences around.

[00:36:35] Encounters or access to that sort of, elite echelon of society or of the, [00:36:40] the make a wealthy, right? Which in the case of Charlie Kirk,

That was the sphere in which he operated. That [00:36:45] was,to what degree, you know, the people that supported him, at least initially

and more [00:36:50] broadly, you know, within the context of that decken, there is a. An encounter and a need [00:36:55] to make space for more extreme beliefs or more extreme behavior, or more [00:37:00] extreme

social views. Perhaps

So if Charlie Kirk had Jupiter in [00:37:05] this Decken, and this is the Deon, that is considered to be ruled by Jupiter using [00:37:10] the descending kde, an order of rulership,

we might assume that

somebody with Jupyter in this deck [00:37:15] and, you know, benefits in some way from the operations of that decan certainly a [00:37:20] access to wealth or

the support of the wealthy, but also from,[00:37:25] somebody who develops a belief system or worldview, which is rooted in the understanding, of [00:37:30] the world through,the lens of a place that has, is full of contradictions where you can't [00:37:35] apply one set of rules to everybody,

or in some cases, through trying [00:37:40] to bring balance to a situation that they see as a, a, having gone off the rails in a [00:37:45] sense.

It is tricky. There can be a little bit of double speak in this deck end sometimes. but there is, you know, [00:37:50] certainly wisdom in understanding that the world is, a place that holds many different [00:37:55] perspectives,

all of which might be considered valid within specific contexts.

[00:38:00] But when we consider Mars, operating in this decken, which might, suggest a [00:38:05] more in temperate, approach to the activity, within this decen, as well as maybe more hostile [00:38:10] viewpoint. Towards some of the extremes, the extreme perspectives which [00:38:15] can be found there. And I'd actually like to read an excerpt from Austin Cop's [00:38:20] 36 Faces, which is a fantastic book.

Whenever he comes out with the second [00:38:25] edition of it, I highly recommend that you

get a copy So

just note that, Austin op calls [00:38:30] this decan the gyroscope. So that idea of maintaining balance in [00:38:35] the center while the outer mechanism. Shift and move in, you [00:38:40] know, a wild number of directions.

The, Honeywell Aerospace definition [00:38:45] of the gyroscope is a wheel or disc mounted on a. Gimbal so it can spin [00:38:50] rapidly around an access that is free to change direction. The angular momentum of [00:38:55] the spinning rotor causes it to maintain its attitude, even when the assembly on [00:39:00] which it's mounted is tilted,

which you might, be able to surmise that this is a rather apt [00:39:05] symbol to use for the second. So you kind of have built into it the idea of maintaining balance [00:39:10] within a potentially imbalanced or volatile environment.

But I want to [00:39:15] read, just the paragraph that he wrote about Mars [00:39:20] in the third Decan of Libra, which is meant to describe the experience of individuals born with Mars and [00:39:25] Libra. But I think.

If we use our imaginations a little bit, imply the, the [00:39:30] themes that he describes. In a more general sense, we might get a sense of like what this [00:39:35] Mars does in the world when it signifies events. so Austin [00:39:40] Cop writes.

those born with Mars in the third decan of Libra, strive toward equilibrium in their [00:39:45] actions, but are possessed of immoderate passions.

And in temperate lusts. These desires [00:39:50] may lead them outside of their own ethical code, and the natives may incur the wrath of [00:39:55] those they wrong or offend. Mars' red light illuminates the [00:40:00] punitive aspects of this face for these natives tend to draw the Furies wrath [00:40:05] on themselves

and are themselves capable of great ferocity towards those. They judge [00:40:10] Irredeemable.

Now I find that statement at the end [00:40:15] ferocity towards those. They judge Irredeemable quite compelling because I think it [00:40:20] rather describes

quite well what

both the, maybe motivation behind this [00:40:25] particular

event.

I believe the, the suspected shooter

in the text texts,

were allegedly sent [00:40:30] by him to I think his, roommate, significant other. I,

with something along the lines of, some [00:40:35] hate can't be negotiated away or, this idea that

to him, Charlie Kirk [00:40:40] was somebody who.

Was, so offensive that

he judged him [00:40:45] irredeemable.

And I think, probably the same attitude can be attributed to

those [00:40:50] on the other side who support Charlie Kirk and what might [00:40:55] be, being described as, maybe a more general

social environment in which the opposing [00:41:00] sides, no longer see each other as redeemable.

And I think we can see that in the, [00:41:05] the environment, in the response, in

the calls, for punitive action [00:41:10] and.

Since that, many are willing to throw the usual rules,the [00:41:15] normal social order, out the window in order to.

Punish the other side or [00:41:20] to

eliminate them from the equation. Right. which is scary.

But this sort of [00:41:25] leads me back to the original question. Why

is this event, striking such a [00:41:30] chord?

Is from a, an astrological perspective, right? And there isn't a, a simple answer to [00:41:35] that. There's likely many, layers to that particular question, but we might want to look at what [00:41:40] this event might be linking into.

and I think if we take a look at two particular charts, we might [00:41:45] see how this event, how this particular Mars, how Charlie [00:41:50] Kirk and what he was doing, and how this Mars Transit signified, you know, what happened to [00:41:55] him.

how this links into bigger, bigger stuff, right? And. One chart is the [00:42:00] United States Sibley chart, which is the chart for the nation as a whole, which will, tend to, to be [00:42:05] responsive to transits that link into that chart and will tend [00:42:10] to be more likely to signify impactful events or themes [00:42:15] within the, overarching fate, of the nation.

And then the other chart I wanna [00:42:20] look at as it pertains to this event is the chart of Donald Trump, traditionally, when you didn't have a [00:42:25] chart for the nation itself, or even if you did, you would always also want to look at the chart for the [00:42:30] leader of the nation

because, the leader's fate, the leader of the nation's fate is always deeply [00:42:35] entwined with that of the nation and vice versa. You know, the fate of the nation is very much subject [00:42:40] to the influence of. The leader. Right.

So first we're looking at the US Sibley [00:42:45] chart.

There are a few things that it might be worth paying attention to here. We don't have anything [00:42:50] around the degree of Mars' placement in Libra. We do have Saturn and Libra in the [00:42:55] Sibli chart, which, you know, might, be descriptive. Certainly, you know, Saturn, in its [00:43:00] exaltation in Libra in general. And at a, a baseline at least describing the [00:43:05] nation's approach to the idea of law and order.

It is one that is at least [00:43:10] ostensibly democratic and intended to be fair. But I [00:43:15] think what is maybe more interesting and worth noting right now is how [00:43:20] this ' Mars transit Mars at, 22 degrees of Libra and maybe somebody with a, [00:43:25] a planet, very closely, at 21 degrees of Libra or so, would be in a very [00:43:30] close rine with Mars in the US Sibli chart, which is placed at 21 degrees of Gemini.

[00:43:35] As, some of you might be aware, there's been much discussion within the astrological [00:43:40] community, around the historical pattern around the United States, and [00:43:45] its, Uranus returns in the US Sibli chart. Both Mars and Uranus are in gemini.

[00:43:50] And so far the historical pattern has been that every time Uranus has been in [00:43:55] Gemini, which occurs roughly every 80 years or so, the United States enters a major [00:44:00] war. The first one being the Revolutionary War, the war which was [00:44:05] necessary for the United States to become an independent nation.

The second being the the Civil [00:44:10] War,

the third being, world War ii. And then as, many astrologers have been [00:44:15] anticipating for years, we're expecting the United States to be involved in a conflict of some kind at some point during the Uranus [00:44:20] return of the United States.

And this is, largely due to Uranus's [00:44:25] co-presence with Mars, which is the most, angular planet in the US civilly chart, [00:44:30] which we might, see as describing what has often been a, an aggressive or [00:44:35] warlike nature, amongst the United States. Mars is in the seventh house, and historically the United States [00:44:40] has not played well with others.

We, traditionally been an isolationist country, which, Mars in the [00:44:45] seventh in a needle chart often describes. Mars isn't particularly helpful, for forming [00:44:50] equitable relationships between peers in the seventh house. And, you know, [00:44:55] the United States',history with alliances has tended to be.

When they existed, [00:45:00] ones where the US was in the senior role, or more dominant, [00:45:05] side of that partnership, which I think we can say, has been the case with the [00:45:10] US and its ongoing, role in the world order, with nato,

which many are, [00:45:15] anticipating that the US will likely no longer continue to be part of nato,in the near [00:45:20] future. perhaps while Uranus is in Gemini. I don't know that that's gonna be the case, but I would say that there's [00:45:25] strong testimony, that that could be the direction that things are going,

Anyway,we want [00:45:30] to be aware that, it's Mars's co-presence with Uranus that is. The [00:45:35] primary reason why this pattern around the US being in conflict during the Uranus [00:45:40] return is so prevalent.

And if we look back at [00:45:45] the chart for when the Civil War began, April 12th, [00:45:50] 1861, it was, shortly after Mars had entered Gemini, joining Uranus and [00:45:55] Gemini. And the period leading up to that, had been won in which threats of war [00:46:00] and, the national divide had been already, been in an ongoing state of being aggravated.

[00:46:05] So we might expect, Mars transits to the natal position or the position of Mars [00:46:10] in the us. Simply chart now that, Uranus is in gem. At least for the time being, there's being [00:46:15] points where we might see increased, national division. And so when we see Mars in [00:46:20] this close rine with, Mars in the Usib chart, we might, not be surprised when [00:46:25] we see that significant, Mars events that take place [00:46:30] around this time, would be ones which would, cooperate with [00:46:35] what is, already sort of built into what the US civilly chart describes for the [00:46:40] US that, times when that placement is [00:46:45] activated are times when the US is more prone to conflict.

And,sometimes that conflict [00:46:50] may be directed inward.

So I'm not saying that we are headed towards [00:46:55] civil war. However, this does look like a movement in that direction, period of [00:47:00] increasing, national division. And this is in part because if we look [00:47:05] at the chart for the current leader of the United States President [00:47:10] Donald Trump,

we might wanna look at placements in his chart, which are [00:47:15] connected to that Mars placement. And we do find a pretty notable [00:47:20] one. We see that, he has the sun very closely conjunct Mars in the [00:47:25] US. Simply chart, he has the sun at 22 degrees Gemini, which is also very closely conjunct [00:47:30] the North node, as well as Uranus.

And the Sun, rules [00:47:35] his first house. So it describes him in a more personal direct way. So it [00:47:40] might, not be unreasonable to expect that Donald Trump as an individual and in [00:47:45] his role in the world, particularly as a leader, as a solar figure, [00:47:50] might be tied into the, the Marshall Signification of the [00:47:55] United States, that, what that Mars wants to do is something [00:48:00] that Donald Trump might cooperate with or be tied into in a more direct [00:48:05] way.

The fates of the nation and him as an individual are intertwined on that [00:48:10] point. Now, we also see that Mars, transiting at the time of Charlie Kirk's [00:48:15] assassination is very closely trine Donald Trump's son, as well as [00:48:20] Mars in the US Sibley chart. So perhaps somehow, this moment [00:48:25] is cooperating with what the son in Donald Trump's [00:48:30] chart wants to do, or what he as an individual wants to do.

And, I think [00:48:35] that it is noteworthy that shortly after the, the [00:48:40] assassination of Charlie Kirk, Donald Trump addressed [00:48:45] the nation in no uncertain terms, describing the, radical left as [00:48:50] being a threat to the nation as a whole. And.

I generally, we'll say, [00:48:55] spoke directly to the divide in the United States, and we might say take, took, a [00:49:00] specific side and perhaps, further solidified the, the divide, exacerbated [00:49:05] it through his speeches.

Now, before, I wrap up this [00:49:10] segment, I wanna take one moment to just talk about, the third decan of Gemini, [00:49:15] which is, both where Donald Trump has the sun in his birth chart. It's where [00:49:20] Mars is placed in the United States Sibley chart, and asIs where [00:49:25] the suspected shooter, individual who, assassinated Charlie Kirk, [00:49:30] Tyler Robinson, has Saturn, very closely conjunct, both Donald Trump's [00:49:35] son and the United States simply chart, Mars. And the third Decan of [00:49:40] Gemini describes situations where two, [00:49:45] contradictory possibilities can no longer coexist and one must be chosen.

you'll see [00:49:50] this decan showing up in situations or in the charts of people who [00:49:55] have a role in, we'll say, not necessarily initiating an event, but sort [00:50:00] of knocking over the first domino in a series of events.

Which result in [00:50:05] a more decisive and impactful scenario. Gemini [00:50:10] three is a decken, which has very, consequential and decisive [00:50:15] stories attached to it. And people with placements in that, decken often find themselves having to make choices [00:50:20] which are of a greater consequence, at which once, making the choice, there's no turning [00:50:25] back.

And you'll see repeatedly the, the sort of, choosing sides or being [00:50:30] torn between two sides, the tension of which ultimately has to be resolved in one way or another.

to, [00:50:35] you know, wrap it all up in a bow and answer the, initial question posited at the beginning of this [00:50:40] video is, why does this, event seem to matter? Well, because it's super tied into [00:50:45] stuff that already wants to happen.

And I, I cannot claim to know specifically what, [00:50:50] what is going to happen, over the next several years. I have some ideas [00:50:55] or theories perhaps, but what is certain is that, we are [00:51:00] in a period of time where there are contradictory elements that exist within the world, [00:51:05] within, perhaps more specifically the United States that can no longer coexist and have to be [00:51:10] sorted out, uh, decisive direction has to be chosen, which for the United States [00:51:15] comes with conflict.

Will that be external? Will that be internal? I don't know. Kind of looks like [00:51:20] internal. Maybe a little bit of both. I don't know what the scale is gonna be, but, if [00:51:25] this, event and the social and political climate which has, given rise [00:51:30] to or perhaps inflamed says anything, it's that, you know, we're [00:51:35] moving in the direction of some sort of internal civil conflict within the United [00:51:40] States that is likely to, unfold over the course of the next [00:51:45] five to eight years or so.

I think the, the main conflict, is gonna be taking place [00:51:50] throughout the rest of the 2020s and probably in the 2030s is when [00:51:55] we'll see what, what shape that's going to take in the future. And historically that's been [00:52:00] one that has been more stable and, a better situation for Americans as a [00:52:05] whole.

you know, we'll see. it's not my intention to frighten anyone. but this is, you [00:52:10] might say, part of the plan, right? And I hope that you at minimum just use this information [00:52:15] to, help you and make informed decisions, give you a sense of what to expect over [00:52:20] the coming years and, and, you know, make your decisions accordingly.

And, you know, just stay safe out [00:52:25] there.

whether it's, booking a reading, liking the video, subscribing, sharing with a friend, you know, any [00:52:30] kind of support that you are able to and feel compelled to [00:52:35] give. no means the world to me.

this is what I've devoted my life to. So I, will likely [00:52:40] continue to do it in some capacity, whether, your support is there or not, but. [00:52:45] I'm certainly able to, to do more of it, and likely at a better [00:52:50] quality, uh, with it. So, uh, much appreciated and, and thanks. Thanks for [00:52:55] watching. If you are still watching at this point, you're a trooper and thanks for sticking [00:53:00] around.

lemme know what you think in the comments, and if you wanna book a reading with me, you can [00:53:05] do so@kylepierceastrologer.com. All right, thanks for watching. Have a great day,
