Friends, I like this forum, and really feel at home here. The people are cool and take things seriously, but not overly so.
Taking a page from @HoldAll I'm going to take advantage of the Journal section, rather than throw my ideas away on something Substack or whatever. It's never going to get me money, so why let my work be content for their attention economy?
Splitting things up with posts about how the universe works, and then recipes for things worth sharing. Understanding the origin of time and space don't mean you ain't hungry!
DUTY TO WARN
Personally, I dismissed astrology for most of my life. Then I happened to be looking at a 2021 important dates on a popular astrology site (IIRC, it was astrology.com, but I haven’t been able to find the same page), which noted civil unrest on January 6, 2021. About 30 seconds after someone texted me “have you seen what’s going on in DC?” I shed much of my doubt.
However, I remain skeptical of astrology at a highly granular level. Big picture stuff with pattern repetition? The correlations are high and obvious. But things like daily horoscopes I take as seriously as IG influences.
Remote Viewing Angle
As a remote viewer, I’ve been aware of Stephen A. Schwartz’s remote viewing 2050 project for years, in which he aggregated data from thousands of sessions to get aggregated agreement. He’s spoken about the findings from about the mid-80s that predict the fall of the USSR, HIV/AIDS, the global war on terror, and a few other points. In videos from New Thinking Allowed as far back as 2013, he notes increased incidence of diseases and pandemics. Even if you ignore COVID, that's true.
The short version of his findings from 2020-2050 is that polarity among people increases dramatically, something which his newsletter focuses on quite a bit. A period of significant political and economic disturbance reaches into the 2030’s, when “something happens to the Earth.” A turning point is reached, and by 2040 society has turned the corner enough to begin rebuilding. The United States suffers some sort of internal crisis that renders it a shadow of its former power.
A few other predictions seem to be just hanging out there without context: batteries that are just a warm metal cube will power most cars and homes, and cars will run on induction charging roadbeds (in the research stage now). Talk of domed cities to avoid the effects of climate change (a point I am most skeptical about), and that everyone has a “chip” for payments – this might simply be 1980’s interpretation of mobile phones and/or credit cards with chips in them. Hard to say.
My only criticism of Schwartz is that he’s been “writing a book” about this for like five years while getting more data on a modern 2030-2050 period. Writing a book is NOT easy, and I don’t want to knock him there. But at this point we’ve passed the point of relevance as predictions. If the book satisfied a duty to warn, then it's failed. We’re in the middle of this mess right now! And with LLMs really excelling at the exact task of aggregating data like this (other remote viewers have noted using LLMs to transcribe and correlate remote viewing data), the task of writing a book really puts all of us interested in the content resorting to other means like watching 10 interviews to get all the relevant points.
The Astrology Angle
Where this data falls out of isolation is that several notable astrologers have predicted a similar big-picture course of events for the United States and the earth in general. Not just one or two, the general consensus is that 2024-2033 is a period of large-scale change, which is not good by default.
Two notable astrologers, Nick Dagan Best and (French guy), as well as many others, have seen the upcoming changes in the outer planets as portending bad times. I’m not an astrologer myself, and I find all the “oh, and the transit of Pluto into Aquarius!” to be a bit too close to a “baffle them with BS” kind of thing to pass that along. Best has a whole book about it and the procession of Uranus and Gemini the United States if you care about the details. I’m not going to rehash the background here, as Best has literally hours and hours of getting into the weeds on various podcasts and books. We’re taking him at his word here.
The point here is that astrologers have a fairly well-established set of previous patterns and movements that are repeating right now. Patterns that denote conflict similar to the 1790-1798 post-Revolution period, the Civil War, and World War II, pointing to a combination of internal strife, internal reorganization and external conflict.
Producing a Timeline
When we take a step back, maybe squint our eyes, and get very big picture, generally speaking, this is the timeline we can expect based on Nick Dagan Best and Stephan A. Schwartz’s work. It's an approximation, so I might have things a bit off.
What I will avoid here is interpreting the data. I find that this is where a lot of predictions go wrong, is that they were right all along, but someone takes a stand on defining something before knowing the context of the time. No one looking at these data in 2000 would have come close to knowing what any of it meant, and interpreting it at that time period would have resulted in wrong specific predictions. Even being this close to things, I can’t tell you what the tech advances of 2027 will be with accuracy. Take these themes and use them as a set of guidelines and themes from which to prepare yourself to exist over the next 10-20 years.
I should also add that “stability” is not necessarily good for everyone. Stability is just lack of chaos and uncertainty. YMMV. The Stalinist Soviet Union was "stable" for a time as well, and it wasn't pleasant.
OK, let’s get to it. Sorry, but everyone else's work focuses on the US, so that's all I have to work with.
2025
We’ve already been through most of this year, with a lot of communication and technology and its disruption themes about here, which we've seen. So far is that after the relative calm of the last 2 months, turbulence is ahead for the rest of the year, with an increase in what can be only called information wars. I hate referencing Alex Jones, but that’s about what we’re doing here. Overall, a lot of data privacy issues, data leaks, misinformation, internet kerfuffles, and possible social media whiplash. Overall climate of too much data, and it’s all garbage.
My personal advice: Americans, freeze your credit. Like, yesterday. Please.
Note: Some predictions note cyberattacks and internet outages start happening quite a bit, and I wrote this originally just before AWS was having a major outage thanks to faulty DNS.
Some have also pointed this time as an opportunity for another wave of disease of some sort, with the late 2025-early 2026 period matching some aspects of COVID (astrologically). It might simply be a very bad flu season, the mental health crisis getting worse, pertussis and measles outbreaks, AI-induced psychosis – who knows. But it’s not just one person noting this alignment.
2026
After the holidays, economic turbulence really sets in. Supply chain issues and “border” issues (as in, tariffs?). Really, a lot of astrologers for decades have pointed to this time as sub-optimal, even across the broader “2025-2027 Sucks” theme.
I have seen some people say that the birth chart for a certain pale balding warmonger that should leave Ukraine the hell alone might have some hiccups during late February 2026. I’ll believe it when I see it, but I’m writing it down here now for posterity.
Spring-summer ‘26 might show more stability and more tech jumps. “New tools appear amid the chaos.” That's the bright spot? Ugh, OK.
Buuuuut the Mid-term elections bring us all back to the squabble for the summer. End of the year is more garbage information overload. What a time to get a paperback and ignore the world.
Honestly, none of this is exactly surprising so far. I could have guessed this all just on my own. I’m acknowledging the “well, duh” aspect, here. But no warnings of comets or inaccurate periods of "sunshine and puppy dogs and unicorns!"
2027
Starts with a bang, sadly. Predictions are conflict and attacks. This is when the new Congress gets sworn in, so that’s not great.
Interestingly, it does seem to also show a lot of major institutional and legislative changes over this whole time period as well. More than we've been having. Which to me doesn't seem likely with a close split in the House and Senate. So either Congress goes total supermajority as backlash, or in the midterms all that gerrymandering pays off big time and all 3 branches remain held by the same folks as now.
Same with post-summer – bad times that will last almost a year. Including for Eastern Europe and hybrid conflicts there. By the end of the year, there might be some glimmers of hope for a brief reprieve. Don’t get used to it.
2028
Starts with more economic turmoil, and more conflict. This is not an awesome year, with both uncertainty from all this institutional overhaul (more? WTF?) and conflict, including many suggestions of hybrid or cyber warfare. As if we haven’t been warned of both for years. Sure, plenty of tech jumps and innovation with how goods and data move, but that’s most of the net positives. The year ends with a transition to greater stability, whatever that means, as it's the 2028 election.
2029
Turbulence begins to recede, and the trends of conflict and chaos start to ease up. Not go away, just ease up. Greater constructive momentum, more stability. Continued de-escalation of conflicts. By the summer, things almost look...promising? The end of 2029 completes the cycle and transition. We’re emerging from the mess, but still have a ways left to go.
2030-2033
During this time, reform will be on the agenda, with a period mirroring the drafting of the Constitution. This points to major overhauls, such as Amendments being passed, and potential for Constitutional crises. Ultimately, it’s during this time that things shift so dramatically that the U.S. begins to re-define itself as a nation. This is an era of things turning the corner and being on a path back to stability, not actually finding stability yet.
2034-2040
On the astrological side of things, this points to an era of rebuilding and healing. If you’ve made it this far, congrats! You’re living in a Brave New World.
Good luck out there, y’all!
