Satoshi Nakamoto is the pseudonym used by the mysterious person or persons who designed Bitcoin and created its original reference application and blockchain database. Nobody seems to know (or say) who Satoshi is or where he/she/they resided in October 2008 when the Bitcoin White Paper was first published. This White Paper is the authoritative systems design description giving all the necessary information along with a proposal for a “Peer-to-Peer Electronic Cash System”, which later became widely known as Bitcoin!

“Journalists…spent years looking for Nakamoto. His identity was one of the great mysteries of the Internet, and a holy grail of investigative reporting, with writers who couldn’t dig up evidence simply growing their own.” O’Hagan, Andrew. (2017) The Secret Life (p. 120). NY: Farrar, Straus and Giroux.

I myself have spent numerous maddening months researching in great detail any and all of the great variety of individuals, groups, or organizations suspected of being the real Satoshi Nakamoto, including Uncle Sam (the National Security Agency-NSA or the Central Intelligence Agency-CIA); Craig S. Wright and his partner Dave Kleiman; Elon Musk; Nick Szabo; Michael Clear, Donal O’Mahony, Michael Peirce, and Hitesh Tewari (Crypto Mano Group); Wei Dai; Hal Finney; Adam Back; David Chaum; Martti Malmi; Shinichi Mochizuki; Margaret Runchey; John Nash; Jed McCaleb; Tatsuaki Okamoto, Neal King, and Charles Bry; Vili Lehdonvirta; or Samsung-ToshiIba-Nakamichi-Motorola. It could be any one of them, or several of them, or someone else we don’t know about.

I have been passionate about finding out the real identity of Satoshi because I wanted to create an accurate astrological birth chart for Bitcoin. I don’t agree with what is widely being used by astrologers for the birth of Bitcoin on January 3, 2009 at 18:15:05 UTC when the first block in the Bitcoin blockchain was created. This is known as the Bitcoin Genesis Block. Undoubtedly, the birth of Bitcoin occurred before that, and more specifically, when Satoshi Nakamoto released his now-legendary White Paper. To cast an accurate birth chart, we need an exact date, time, and geographical location. We have the date and time for the White Paper, but the location is problematic. Continue reading →

One of the many New Year charts used in Vedic astrology is based on the New Moon in Pisces, when the Sun and Moon come together in the same celestial longitude (conjunction) in Pisces constellation in the pratipada tithi. This is called Chaitra Shukla Pratipada, the first synodic lunar day (tithi) of the waxing Moon in the Vedic month of Chaitra. It is believed that Lord Brahma created the universe on this very day. In this year of 2018, Chaitra Shukla Pratipada tithi starts right after 9:11:28 AM on Saturday March 17 for the U.S., set for the capital of Washington D.C. The horoscope for the Vedic New Year for the U.S. is calculated for this place, date, and time.

Though the New Year chart is set for March 17, the year lord is calculated for the following day on Sun-day, March 18, which is the day on which the pratipada tithi is in place at sunrise. Each country will have a different New Year chart based on the different coordinates. The beginning of the Vedic New Year also marks Vasant Navratri, the nine-night spring festival of Mother Divine when Devi Durga comes down to bless the world and her children at the beginning of the New Year.

Bitcoin and the blockchain are two of the most important inventions since the development of the Internet and the World Wide Web in the late 20th century, and are among the most important inventions of the 21st century so far. Until now, I’ve hesitated to do any serious astrological research on Bitcoin because I’ve been so personally involved with it for many years now…or I guess I should be honest and say I’ve been obsessed with it…I am obsessed with it. This no doubt might cloud my astrological judgment. Nonetheless, the Bitcoin vortex sucked me in and gave me no choice but to do this research and write about it. I have deeply studied and researched this topic and continue to delve into it daily.

The New Year is starting out strong with a potent Full SuperMoon (Snow Moon) which culminates on New Year’s Day, January 1, 2018 at 9:24 PM Eastern Time (January 2 at 1:24 AM Universal Time). SuperMoons occur a few times a year when the Full or New Moon is closer to the Earth than normal (perigee). This SuperMoon on January 1 is the largest one of 2018! SuperMoons are known to create larger than typical ocean tides, and they also heighten our emotional energy, for “good or bad.” One theory behind this so-called “lunar effect” is that an enhanced release of neurohormones is triggered by the Full Moon’s electromagnetic radiation and/or gravitational pull.

After having been transiting in sidereal Scorpio since early November 2014, with a brief transit into sidereal Sagittarius from January 26 – June 20, 2017, Saturn will re-enter Sagittarius on October 26 at 5:53:54 AM Eastern Time, and will remain here until January 2020. This is a welcome relief as Saturn in enemy Mars’ sign of Scorpio stirred up a lot of intense conflict and suffering for the world. On the other hand, Saturn and Jupiter (the lord of Sagittarius) are more neutral to each other. Whew, that may mean less stress ahead with this new transit, especially after late November once Saturn gets past the tumultuous beginning part (first navamsa / 3 degrees and 20 minutes) of Sagittarius.

Dwelling mentally on the objects of sense leads to attachment to them. From attachment arises desire and from desire, anger. From anger springs forth lack of discrimination which leads to loss of memory. From loss of memory ensues the destruction of intelligence, and the destruction of intelligence results in decay. (Bhagavad-Gita II: 62-63)

Stephen Craig Paddock was an American mass murderer who committed the 2017 Las Vegas Strip shooting which began at ~10:05 PM on October 1, 2017 when “He fired modified semi-automatic weapons from his room on the 32nd floor of the Mandalay Bay hotel into a crowd of approximately 22,000 concertgoers at a country music festival. He later died at the scene from a self-inflicted gunshot wound. The incident surpassed the 2016 Orlando nightclub shooting as the deadliest mass shooting by a lone gunman in U.S. history, with 58 fatalities (excluding Paddock) and 489 injuries.” (Wikipedia)

The birth data for Stephen Paddock is rated AA (Accurate/Accurate/from birth certificate) and can be found on Astro.com:

After having been retrograde since April 21, 2017, Pluto is now slowing down now for his direct station which will occur at ~23 degrees of sidereal Sagittarius on September 28, 2017. Pluto will remain in direct (forward) motion for about seven months and then will retrograde again next year, on April 23, 2018. His retrograde cycle lasts for about five months every year. (Please note, I am a Neo-Vedic astrologer which means I work with the outer planets but don’t assign them rulerships over signs. I also use the sidereal zodiac exclusively.)

According to the sidereal zodiac which is the traditional zodiac of Vedic astrology, Jupiter will transit in the constellation of Libra (Tula rashi) beginning on September 11, 2017 and lasting until October 11, 2018, Jupiter transits through one constellation every ~12 years, and the last time it transited through Libra was from September 2005 to October 2006. Additionally, the lunar nodes Rahu and Ketu (true node calculation) are moving into the Cancer-Capricorn axis on September 8, 2017, and this transit will last until March 2019. If we use the mean node calculation, this ingress already occurred in mid-August 2017. Either way, we are in the midst of a sea change. I will start by discussing the Jupiter Libra ingress.

The Moon is waxing fast, and here we are again seeking more light. The last full Moon of our summer season (northern hemisphere) will culminate in the sidereal sign of Aquarius on Wednesday, September 6, 2017 at 3:03 AM Eastern Time (Eastern Daylight Time). Known to Native Americans as the “Full Corn Moon” and also “The Moon When All Things Ripen,” this particular lunation represents the fullness of summertime.

In Part IV of my Great American Eclipse series, I share some of my research into past eclipses and prognosticate about some possible current and future trends related to the eclipses of August 2017. Please refer to my previous eclipse installments for more information about the eclipses: Parts One, Two, and Three. 

SUMMARY

(Please note: My work is based on the sidereal zodiac only.)

• Not only the U.S. but many other areas of the world will be affected now and through the next year. However, late July through early September especially, we might expect to see a lot of Murphy’s Law in effect, as all manner of things can go haywire in eclipse seasons.
• The U.S. will continue an intense process of cultural and political rebirth which is already in play, including a trend toward isolationism and nationalism. There is a burning desire among traditionalists to protect and fight for the nation’s most fundamental values and liberties.
• The eclipse in Leo reflects the possibility for disruptive and dangerous geophysical disasters including damaging fires and droughts. A diplomatic international crisis is also a possibility with the Leo eclipse.
• A key leader or leaders on the world stage may pass away or be deposed in the coming six months, but it will not be President Trump. He will continue to fight his opponents while trying to get his message across and push forth his agenda. The Leo eclipse for the President appears to be propitious, but suggests much more political drama and outright “political warfare” developing in the coming months.
• The 145 Saros cycle reflects the chance of major storms and floods, as well as the fear or threat of nuclear military action, and a mild recession but not a major economic crash.
• Some very difficult karma from the past which is unresolved will be coming back into the picture (or is not going away) and my intuition is that this relates to our known foreign enemies, including those living within our borders and those abroad.
• A military or terrorist attack on the U.S. and/or military action by the U.S. is definitely not out of the range of possibility.
• Mild or moderate seismic activity on the U.S. West Coast, the Pacific Northwest, or the U.S. Midwest as well as other parts of the world is also a possibility, but Yellowstone’s super volcano will most likely not erupt.
• The eclipse falls in the 9th house of the U. S. Kelleher chart which brings ongoing focus and transformation in matters related to extreme ideological differences and culture wars, higher education; morals, ethics, religion and ideology; laws, judges, courts, and legal matters; journalism and publishing; shipping and trade; immigration; foreign relations; and science and invention. In terms of the latter, some groundbreaking discoveries are on the horizon.
• Eclipses occur when the negative power of the world has been whipped up to a frenzy. Poison can be released, literally or metaphorically. In terms of the latter, we see this happening in America’s interminable culture wars being waged over traditionalist versus liberal values. The eclipse path line dissects the U.S. symbolizing the extreme danger we face in the current state of racial, cultural, and political hatred, unrest and divisiveness.
• There may be added focus and new developments during the next six months or so on the criminal justice system as it toughens up on crime and illegal immigration. Additionally, the mining, automobile, transportation, chemical/pharmaceutical, and manufacturing industries are going to go through some significant new growth and development, as will real estate and home building; and oil transportation issues loom large, such as pipeline concerns.
