US Midterm Election Preview, Part Two: This Time, It’s Senatorial

Although, barring an Act of God or a flagrant abuse of power, a Democrat takeover of the US House of Representatives in the Midterm Elections on November 3^rd seems assured, given the mood of the country, control of the Senate is much less certain. That the Upper Chamber is in play at all is due solely to the incompetence, venality, and narcissistic focus of Donald J. Trump, who continues to spread anarchy, instability and failure to any and all who come into contact with him, regardless of Party affiliation.

US Midterm Election Preview, Part One

The 2026 US midterm elections, to be held on November 3^rd, are among the most consequential in the nation’s history. If the slide into autocracy for the US is to be averted, it’s essential that Democrats retake at least one chamber of Congress, since Republicans are apparently unwilling to curb even the worst impulses of the Mad King.

Of Trillionaires, Treaties, Triumphs and Travesties

June 2026 saw a bevy of controversies, eccentricities, and record setting. If this is what Uranus in Gemini is going to be like, hold onto your hats for the next seven years! Throughout, referential asteroids in significant placement tell the tales, from an NBA championship to an insulted Italian Prime Minister, a tentative peace deal, a rectified name change, and the world’s first trillionaire.

Golden Tempo Wins 2026 Kentucky Derby

When will I learn? I should know by now to check the field before the running of the Kentucky Derby, to determine a winner and place a hefty bet. With both Rich Strike, in 2022 (at 80-1 odds) and Mystik Dan, in 2024 (at 18-1), a preliminary peep at the equine charts and Race Day could have netted me a packet! In 2026, the pattern repeated, but I still hadn’t learned my lesson.

Cosmic Grab Bag: Spring 2026, Part One

As ever, stories come whooshing over the transom, and fly right on by, with no time to deal with them properly in these hectic times. We’ll try to play catch-up here, with yet another AAA version of an “omnibus bill,” compiling several small stories (and some big ones) in a comprehensive review of the doings of late. Topics include the Hungarian elections, a shooting at a Mexican archeological site, and a federal investment in a failing airline.

98th Academy Awards Preview, Part Four: Best Supporting Actress

We’ve got a fairly full cosmic field in the race for the Best Supporting Actress award, but Wunmi Mosaku (“Sinners”) is scratched at the starting post, with no celestial referent. Of those remaining, there is one referent each, asteroid Ella 435 for Elle Fanning (“Sentimental Value”), asteroid Inge 2494 for Inga Ibsdotter Lilleaas (“Sentimental Value”), Amy 3375 for Amy Madigan (“Weapons”) and Taylor 2603 for Teyana Taylor (“One Battle After Another”). As with Best Supporting Actor, the circumstance of having two performers nominated in the same category for roles in the same film tends to split the voting and reduce the chances of success.
