Dear friends,

Last week, the wound walked home. After eight years in Aries - eight years of the warrior’s wound, and the wound of identity - Chiron crossed into Taurus, and something in the collective shifted. The ache changed texture, becoming less sharp and more deep. More body. More earth. And then Uranus squared the lunar Node, and the fork in the road shook beneath our feet.

This week, the sky goes still before it roars as the solstice arrives and the year pivots on its axis. Maximum light, maximum visibility, and then the long lean back toward dark. Not darkness - just the turn. We are at the still-point, and standing still, we can see in both directions at once. We look behind and see the tumult that brought us here, and what we see ahead is also considerable, and it's all laid out below.

The sky is loud this week for both the United Kingdom and its current Prime Minister Keir Starmer. I’ll dive into both charts to show what this week’s sky is asking Britain to decide about itself, and why the answer matters beyond its borders.

Beyond that, we are gearing up for a Full Moon in Capricorn illuminating what has been built and what has crumbled. Jupiter entering Leo, ending fourteen months in the emotional depths of Cancer and asking the collective to rise and be seen. And nine days from now, Mars conjuncts Uranus in Gemini on July 4 - the United States’ 250th birthday - an aspect that does not whisper, but strikes like lightning. And then beyond that, a series of unprecedented celestial configurations - a convergence the sky has not seen in recorded history and won't come again in our lifetimes - pointing to the first real light of the world that comes after.

This week is the breath before all of that, as the Sun moves through three key aspects in a sequence that looks like a deliberate preparation for everything the sky is about to ask of us. This week makes everything that follows possible, as we stand, eyes open, at the threshold of everything.

Below, I’ve mapped out each day of the week according to the sky - what’s happening in the UK, on the world stage, what it’ll feel like personally, and the mantra to carry through each day - and then laid out the deeper teaching: what the Sun is doing this week, why this particular solstice matters, how to walk a threshold without rushing the crossing, and what shocks and surprises July has in store.

If you want to know what’s coming and how to walk through this week steady - join us in the Inner Circle. The map for the road ahead is laid out for you below.

Dear friends,

Last week, Venus completed her tour of Cancer with one final touch of the wound, and then crossed into Leo to light the candles for the second half of the year. The cradle was acknowledged, the heart stepped forward, grief was made real, and then the light stepped forward too. Many of us felt it. The small relief, the new room in the chest, the quiet ignition of something that wants to be seen.

This week, the sky asks a much larger question.

After eight years of inhabiting Aries - eight years of presiding over the wound of the self, the warrior, identity, autonomy, and the brutal politics of who gets to be a person - Chiron, the wounded healer, leaves the sign on Friday. It crosses into Taurus for the first time in roughly fifty years, giving us three months of preview before retrograding back into Aries in September - one final return to complete what the fire started. The permanent crossing comes in April next year, and Chiron stays in Taurus until 2033. What opens this week is the first glimpse of home - the full homecoming follows. The wound itself is on the move, and when the wound moves, everything that has been organised around it begins to reorganise too.

That’s not the only pivot this week. Monday brings the first New Moon since Uranus crossed into Gemini at the end of April - the very first lunar seed of the new era of voice, network, and lightning-fast information. Saturday brings Uranus squaring the lunar Node - a sharp collective redirection that sits exactly two weeks before the Mars–Uranus conjunction at the Fourth Gate on July 4.

This is a hinge week. Not the loudest one, but one of the most structural. It’s the week the wound walks home.

Below, I’ve mapped out each day of the week according to the sky - what’s happening on the world stage, what it’ll feel like personally, and the mantra to carry through each day - and then I've laid out the deeper teaching on what it means for Chiron to leave Aries after eight years, why this particular passage is so significant, and what the sky is asking of us as the wound moves from the warrior to the body.

If you want to know what’s coming and how to walk through this week steady - join us in the Inner Circle. If you’re feeling overwhelmed and want the map back to whelmed, it’s all laid out for you below.

Dear friends,

Last week the sky burned bright as the Sagittarius Full Moon lit the truth-axis - the deep that had been rising finally found its sentence under the truth-Moon, and many of us spoke things out loud that we could not have spoken a fortnight earlier. Then Mercury crossed out of Gemini’s chatter and into Cancer’s chamber, and the conversation turned from the head to the home, from idea to ache, and from debate to belonging.

This week, the sky asks a different question. Now that we have spoken the truth, what does the heart want to do with it?

The answer arrives through Venus, who for the past few weeks has been swimming through Cancer alongside Mercury - the sign of the cradle, the kitchen, the coast, the mother, the motherland. The sign of belonging and of grief. While she has been there, the collective heart has been turned toward home, but this week, her tour of Cancer is complete as she crosses into Leo, touches Chiron as she goes - the final wound of belonging, the cost of having been held imperfectly by the places and people we came from. Grief is touched, and then the heart steps forward.

This week is the crossing, from cradle to crown, from belonging to sovereignty, from the heart that asks who holds me to the heart that asks who sees me. Venus is the herald - she walks into Leo first and lights the candles, and by the end of June Jupiter will follow her across the threshold. The whole second half of the year is being prepared in this week’s passage.

This is not a week to push, but a week to cross, feeling all the grief we’ve been holding as we go. The grief is what makes the light real, and the light is what makes the grief worth carrying.

Below, I’ve mapped out each day of the week according to the sky - what’s happening on the world stage, what it’ll feel like personally, and the mantra to carry through each day - and then I’ve laid out the deeper teaching on what happens when Venus changes signs, why this particular crossing matters, and what the sky is asking of us as she carries us from Cancer to Leo.

If you want to know what’s coming and how to walk through this week with your heart open and your feet on the ground - join us in the Inner Circle. If you’re feeling the ache of the threshold and want company through the crossing, let’s walk across together.

Dear friends,

Today the Sagittarius Full Moon rises opposite the Gemini Sun, and what has been gathering in the deep waters of the past two weeks finally finds its sentence. The arrow that has been quietly fletched beneath the surface - through the rewiring of Uranus into Gemini, through Sedna touching the circuit, through the long descent into what the architecture pushed underwater - leaves the bow.

Fire returns to the sky carrying the water it just met.
The deep speaks.
The truth surfaces.
The arrow flies.

And on the other side of that arrow is something we have been building towards all year - the Fourth Gate the cosmos asks us to traverse in this year’s Corridor of Intensity. On July 4, Mars will meet Uranus in Gemini - the most volatile lightning-strike aspect of 2026, landing in the sign of voice, of message, of the spoken and written word. It is the day the rewiring of the species gets its first jolt it cannot un-feel, as communication itself becomes the site of the shock.

The sky is telling us that the truths we let surface in the coming weeks are what call the lightning down. July 4 is not happening to us - it’s being summoned by what gets spoken under this Full Moon, by what is named in the days that follow, by every voice that finally finds its sentence between now and then. The arrow and the lightning are the same event in two acts. The truth calls, and then the sky answers.

This week, Mercury walks ahead of the Gate carrying the summons, moving at near-maximum speed, hitting four exact aspects in five days and changing signs in the middle of it, and every aspect is a small preview of what the Fourth Gate will sound like when it strikes. This week is the messenger walking the corridor ahead of the lightning, leaving us notes about what’s coming, and what will be required of us when it lands. We have just six weeks until July 4 - this is the week to listen if we want to know the flavour of what’s ahead.

Below, I’ve mapped out each day of the week according to the sky - what’s happening on the world stage, what it’ll feel like personally, and the mantra to carry through each day - and then I’ve laid out the deeper story: what the Sagittarius Full Moon is actually doing, why Mercury is moving so fast this week, and how every aspect between now and the Fourth Gate is one step closer to the lightning.

If you want to walk into the corridor between now and July 4 with eyes open - knowing what’s being summoned, knowing what the sky is asking of us, and knowing how to speak the truth that calls the lightning down without being swept away by it - join us in the Inner Circle. The map is laid out for you there.

Dear friends,

Last week, the sky made its formal announcement as four planets piled into Gemini, the Sun met Uranus in their first conjunction since the ingress, and the message arrived in voltage rather than words - the Age of the Mind is closing, the Age of the Heart is opening, and the species is being rewired from one to the other across the next seven years.

The discomfort so many of us have been carrying - the mental overload, the inability to focus, the strange tiredness, the sense that the inside of our own head has begun to feel like a room we no longer quite recognise - none of this is a breakdown (though it absolutely feels like it). It’s the old wiring failing because the signal has changed, and the new wiring being installed in its place.

This week, the new wiring receives its first transmission, as Uranus - the awakener, the rewirer - meets Sedna, a dwarf planet at the edge of the solar system named for the Inuit goddess of the deep waters, the mother of the ocean, the queen of everything that lives beneath the surface. In myth, Sedna was a young woman thrown overboard by her father in a storm, her fingers broken one by one until she let go, and as she sank her broken fingers became the seals and the whales and the walruses that fed her people for generations. The body the wounded masculine tried to discard became the body of the ocean, and the wounded feminine who was thrown away became the goddess who fed every creature in the deep.

This week, she touches the wire and what was thrown overboard and did not die is now rising into the nervous system of the species through the new circuit - not as memory, but as live current. Every voice the architecture pushed underwater to keep its surface tidy is coming back up, and it is coming back up through us.

The women who were not believed.
The bodies that were not honoured.
The earth that was treated as inventory.
The grief that had no permission to grieve.
The rage that had no permission to rage.
All of it is returning, up through the circuit.

If last week the sky was teaching the mind that it can no longer do this job alone, this week the sky shows it what the heart has been holding all along.

We are not being asked to just soldier through this week - we’re being asked to move to higher ground and let the water do what it came to do. The current moving through the species this week is enormous - it cannot be overstated - and we are not meant to manage it. We are just meant to let it move. The deep is not the enemy - it’s the mother. She’s been waiting a long time to reach the wire, and we - the bodies she has been carrying all along - are that wire.

Some of us will feel this week as overwhelm, and some as grief that has no story. Some as anger that has waited generations to move, and some as a strange tenderness for things we did not realise we were grieving. All of it is the same event as the ocean rises into the circuit board of the species.

Below, I’ve mapped out each day of the week according to the sky - what’s happening on the world stage, what it’ll feel like personally, and the mantra to carry through each day - and then I’ve laid out the deeper story of Sedna, explaining why this mental overwhelm is happening, what the sky is trying to teach us, and the practical work of finding our way through.

If you want to know what’s coming and how to walk through this week steady - join us in the Inner Circle. If you’re feeling overwhelmed and want the map back to whelmed, it’s all laid out for you below.

Dear friends,

If you’ve been feeling mentally overloaded lately - fragmented, foggy, unable to focus, exhausted by the sheer volume of information coming at you, struggling to know what’s true - brace yourself. This week, the sky is about to ratchet that overload up another notch.

Four planets pile into Gemini this week, as Moon, Mercury, and Sun all cross into the sign Uranus claimed just three weeks ago. That’s the sky deliberately overloading a single circuit: the one that governs the mind. By Friday, when the Sun meets Uranus in their first conjunction since the ingress, the voltage hits its peak - we should expect shocks, revelations, and a “wait, did that just happen?” quality to the news, even more so than usual.

Expect consensus reality to fracture a little further. Expect AI-generated content, viral disclosures, and headlines that travel faster than fact-checkers can catch them. Expect to feel it in your nervous system. This is the sky’s formal announcement of what’s going to define the next seven years as Uranus makes its way through Gemini - the planet of revolution in the sign of mind. It accelerates, decentralises, and fragments, and it will not stop for seven years. The mental health epidemic, the information overwhelm, the splitting of shared reality, the rise of conspiracy thinking in places we never expected to see it - all of that is the early light of this transit, and this week turns the dial up.

The shock will be felt at the geopolitical level too, as this week’s Sun-Uranus conjunction in Gemini lands on charts of the United States, Israel, Iran, Trump, Putin, and Netanyahu, opening a multi-year activation of the same patch of sky in every one of those charts all at once. Expect these nations and their leaders to dominate the news cycle this week and in the weeks ahead. The sky is lighting up the geopolitical grid, and the story it's writing is only just beginning.

But in the midst of all this mayhem, the sky is gently reminding us that none of this is happening to us. All of it is happening for us.

There’s a reason the sky is overloading the mind right now, and a reason consensus reality is fracturing. There’s a reason the algorithm has been keeping our nervous systems in low-grade emergency for years. The sky is moving us somewhere most people don’t yet have the map for, and the discomfort is the sky nudging us along a path we can’t yet see.

There is a way to walk through this week without losing our footing or losing our minds, but it requires understanding what’s actually happening, what the sky is asking of us, and where it’s trying to take us.

Below, I’ve mapped out each day of the week according to the sky - what’s happening on the world stage, what it’ll feel like personally, and the mantra to carry through each day - and then I’ve laid out the deeper story, explaining why this mental overwhelm is happening, what the sky is trying to teach us, and the practical work of finding our way through.

If you want to know what’s coming and how to walk through this week steady - join us in the Inner Circle. If you’re feeling overwhelmed and want the map back to whelmed, it’s all laid out for you below.

Dear friends,

This week marks a quiet but decisive shift as Mars - the planet of conflict, force, and the fire of action - finishes a six-week tour of Aries on Saturday and crosses into Taurus, changing the entire weather of what we’ve been living through.

Since the start of April, Mars in Aries has been the engine of the corridor of intensity that saw seven planets stack up in the sign of fire, while down on the ground Trump’s disastrous war in Iran ran off the rails. The open declarations, the dramatic strikes, the visible escalations, the bombs as headline - that’s all been Mars in Aries. Wars start in Aries, but they never end there - it’s just where they take their loudest form. On Saturday, at the very last degree of the sign, Mars meets Chiron; the wounded warrior making one final exact aspect before walking out of the burning building.

This is not the end of the conflict in Iran. It’s the end of the conflict as the main story.

What comes next, as Mars moves into Taurus - the sign of the body, the soil, the supermarket shelf, the heating bill, the supply chain - is the phase where the consequences of the fire become the lived experience of the world. The bombs don’t stop falling; they just stop being the thing on the front page. The headlines pivot from the strike to what the strike has done. From the Strait to the queue at the petrol station. From the war room to the kitchen.

From here, the ignition gives way to the grinding reality. Mars in Aries was the spark. Mars in Taurus is the fire reaching the floorboards.

For us personally, the week mirrors this exactly. Six weeks of fight-posture - pushing, defending, charging, holding it together - ends on Saturday too. The body that has been bracing gets to put the bracing down, and what surfaces when the bracing stops is the ache of having held it for so long. Old wounds, old exhaustions, old griefs that the fight-mode kept just out of reach. They arrive on Saturday because they finally can.

The week is for letting the warrior come home. For laying the sword down. For feeling, possibly for the first time in weeks, what the body has actually been carrying. This isn’t a week to start things. It’s a week to finish a chapter we’ve been inside since April, and to plant something in the ground that isn’t powered by the fight.

But this week is also a doorway, and what’s on the other side is bigger than just one week.

Below, I’ve mapped out not just the days ahead but the months ahead - what the rest of 2026 actually looks like according to the sky, month by month, from the supply-chain consequences arriving through May and June, to the Fourth Gate locking in through July, to the heart-cracking eclipses of August, to the underworld excavation of October, to where we surface in December, into a brave new world shaped by the intensity of this year.

I’ve also written about what the new world actually looks like - the one that’s being born underneath the one that’s collapsing. Because the old world isn’t just ending. Something is taking its place, and the sky is showing us its shape clearly. The pyramid is becoming the circle. The hierarchy is becoming the hive. And every one of us, right now, in our own small corner of life, is being asked to build our piece of it.

If you want to walk into the months ahead with eyes open - knowing what’s coming, knowing what the sky is asking of us, and knowing how to tend what actually matters while the old order finishes its long, slow, necessary collapse - then join us in the Inner Circle. The map is laid out for you there.

Dear friends,

Since late in 2024, Pluto has been moving forward through the early degrees of Aquarius, pressing into its twenty year journey through the sign that governs systems, networks, and collective organization. Pluto in Aquarius is the slow transformation of the structures we live inside - governments, technologies, financial systems, the architecture of who counts and how decisions get made - and for months now, that pressure has been gathering across the entire global system, reshaping the world as we know it.

But this week, Pluto stops moving forward, and for the next five months, it will retrograde back across the same part of the sky it just traversed - as if it’s the steamroller reversing back over what it just mowed down. Whatever Pluto compressed in the first few months of this year - the political maps it tore up and redrew, the institutional rulings, the system shifts in technology, finance, surveillance, and collective organization it oversaw - is all about to be composted slowly over the months ahead, and by the time Pluto stations direct in mid-October, just a few weeks before the United States midterms, whatever has been processed underground will return to the surface as fact.

The systems we have lived inside our whole lives are not going to be repaired by this cycle. They are going to be transformed - which, in Pluto’s vocabulary, means broken down so that something else can be built on the cleared ground. That breaking is going to keep happening, and it will hurt, and we will lose things we love, and we will watch institutions that once meant something become hollow, and see leaders fail us, and the maps we trusted to guide us go blank.

Yet at the same time, something else is being born, at scales most of us are not yet looking at. In gardens, and group chats, and in neighborhood meetings. In small congregations, and watershed councils, and tool libraries, and open source projects. The next world is being seeded right now, in places small enough that the people inside them know each other’s names, and the work in this season is not to be saved by the failing system, but to recognize that the system is finishing, and to put our actual building energy into what comes next.

And what exactly comes next? Well, the sky is telling us that clearly too. The last time Pluto moved through Aquarius 250 years ago, it steamrolled over the divine right of kings, and democracy was born on the cleared ground. Now it’s back to collapse a system that’s no longer fit for purpose, and it’s already describing what we should build in its place.

If you want to understand what the sky is telling us, not just about the week ahead, but about the months and years before us and what we are being asked to build in the rubble Pluto in Aquarius leaves in its wake, then join the Inner Circle and let’s read the map in the stars together.

The blueprint is clear, and it’s beautiful, if you know how to read the sky.

Dear friends,

Last week, the fist closed exactly when the sky said it would, as Mars met Saturn in Aries and, within hours, Trump’s claim that the Strait of Hormuz was open began unravelling as Iranian forces fired on three vessels trying to cross the strait and the US blew a hole in the engine room of an Iranian-flagged cargo ship and seized her in international waters. Force met structure on cue, just as the sky predicted.

Then as Mercury crossed Saturn and Mars, The Wall Street Journal described a President so unstable after learning Iranians had shot down an American jet that his own aides physically kept him out of the room as updates came in. The same President later fell asleep in an Oval Office press event, went on late night social media rants about the Clintons and the Obamas and reposted AI-generated images of women who do not exist and asked Iran to release them. The New York Times described it as “a deranged autocrat mad with power.” The sky called it what it was - a leader unravelling.

Friday brought the financial threshold the sky had been telegraphing for months as Venus met Uranus at the very last degree of Taurus, and on cue the United Arab Emirates asked the US Treasury for a financial backstop - they are running out of capacity to keep the Iran war going, as the petrodollar architecture took a visible hit and the people inside it scrambled to hold it together with private American money. The same rupture showed up at ground level as Farmer Mac's reported Chapter 12 farm bankruptcies up 46% and total farm debt now projected at a record $624.7 billion. 70% of American farmers told the Farm Bureau they can't afford the fertilizer they need this season. Venus met Uranus in the bull's last degree, and the bull is the farmer, the granary, the soil itself. The petrodollar wobbled in Dubai. The land cracked open in the Delta. The same money running out in the same week, at every scale at once.

Then Saturday’s Sun-Pluto square detonated the corruption story wide open as Senator Jon Ossoff called out Jared Kushner’s two-billion-dollar Saudi funding and Eric and Don Jr’s company pitching drone interceptors to Gulf states during the very war they are profiting from. The Mar-a-Lago Mafia, Ossoff called it. Pluto doesn’t destroy what is real - only what was never real to begin with.

After weeks of walking through relentless fire, where every major movement in the sky was in the same sign moving in the same direction - forward, hot, fast, and igniting - this week, the forge finally cools. The Aries stellium becomes a memory as the Scorpio Full Moon - the most watery moon of the year - rises on Beltane, the old fire festival when fire and water were always meant to meet. The forge has done its work, the blade has been made, and now the sky plunges what has been forged into the deep, and in the hiss and the steam of that meeting the blade will finally be set.

As Uranus, the awakener, crosses from Taurus into Gemini after seven years of shaking the body of the world, the seven-year rewiring of the human mind begins. The seven years that just ended changed the ground we stand on. The seven years that begin this week will change the instrument we perceive that ground with as the mind itself is rewired.

This week, as we welcome this shift and also observe the Scorpio Full Moon, the sky asks us to descend instead of ascend, to drink instead of burn, to let the body catch up with what the last three months have done to it. Some of us will feel it as relief, and some as heaviness - a weight in the belly, a drop in the mood, a pull toward solitude or water or sleep. Neither is wrong. Both are the quench. The body is being allowed, finally, to set the shape of what the fire has been making. We have been in a forge and we are being taken out of it, and the hiss we hear is not a warning, but the sound of the shape setting.

The fire has done its work.
The water is here, and so is the air of change.
And underneath both, the rewiring begins.

Join the Inner Circle and we will walk through each day of the coming week and map what the sky says is coming. Pull up a seat by the water. Let’s let it in together.

Dear friends,

We have been watching this week approach for months. Since Saturn met Neptune in Aries in February for the unprecedented Genesis Reset, to last week as seven planets gathered in the sign of the fire, the path of intensity we have been walking has been leading us to here - to this week, and to a configuration of sky that doesn’t arrive gently and doesn’t leave things the way it found them.

This is the week the fist closes.

The week begins with Mars and Saturn meeting in Aries - the most precise “force meets structure” signature in the astrological catalogue - and the sky delivers its verdict on the confrontation we have all been watching build between Israel, Iran, and the United States. The heavens are mirroring what is about to play out on the ground below, naming the roles of who operates, who calls it, who signs off in the shadows, who absorbs the blow, and who is shaken to the foundation and jolts into motion in response. I’ll unpack it all in detail below.

Then on Friday, Venus meets Uranus at the very last degree of Taurus - the final breath of the earth era - and the financial architecture that has held the world together since Nixon closed the gold window and built the petrodollar snaps visibly for the first time in most of our lifetimes. We’ll look at what that actually means on the ground, what it looks like in currency markets and oil-backed assets, and what the sky suggests we do with our money when the foundation of the financial world is cracking beneath our feet.

And then, as this week draws to a close, Uranus steps into Gemini for the first time since the 1940s, and everything changes. Not just this news cycle, not just this war, not just this market shock - everything. The last time this happened we got radar and computing and the atomic bomb and the architecture of the entire post-war world. This time, the revolution takes a different form, unfolding through disruption over the decade ahead.

This is the end of the world built on extraction, on the petrodollar, on the story that force is the final word and that the powerful can keep the network from releasing what it holds. That world is closing this week, and something ungovernable and distributed and impossible to capture is stepping through the gap it leaves.

And as it does, we look to the chart of Donald Trump, coming apart in real time - the man who stands as the old world’s most strident expression is dissolving at the exact astrological moment the old world itself is, on a timeline measured in days or weeks, not years. The sky chose its vessel carefully, and it’s now finishing what it started. What clinicians are diagnosing from afar, the sky is doing nothing to contradict. The planets pressing on his natal chart right now don't allow the mask to keep holding - all eyes on the White House these next few weeks.

That's as much as I'll say publicly - this space is a place where we transmute fear with insight, not stoke it - but there are details this week that carry weight that I will unpack below in the Inner Circle for those ready to receive the truth of the fire without being burned by it. If that feels like you, keep reading with an open heart.

The fire is here, but so is the path through it, and the sky is handing us a map. Let’s read it together.

Dear friends,

Last week, Mars entered Aries and the temperature changed, and by the end of this week, seven planets will be gathered in the sign of the fire - Sun, Moon, Mercury, Mars, Saturn, Neptune, Chiron- a concentration of celestial force with no modern precedent.

While the sky is on fire, it’s also throwing fog - that’s Neptune’s offering in the sign of ignition - and this week will feel like force moving through that fog; decisions made in delusion, and narratives released to the public that do not match the reality of what is actually in motion.

It’s all pressing toward a New Moon on Friday that is unlike anything any of us has lived through; the most significant New Moon of our lifetimes, planted in the sign of war, in the middle of a war, surrounded by a host of planets in Aries amidst a sky that wraps the moment of planting in deliberate fog. And it leads us into a Mars-Saturn conjunction at the end of the week that brings the fire’s intensity to a peak.

What is seeded on Friday’s New Moon will not be understood for weeks, and what erupts by the weekend’s Mars-Saturn conjunction will not announce itself clearly - it just paves the way to a truth eruption that detonates in July. The sky’s not pointing to our destruction, but guiding us to disclosure, and this week is where that fuse is lit. Believe it or not, the fire in the sky is here to help - to burn the old world to the ground, so something better can be born from the ashes. Our reality won’t look the same on the other side of this fire.

To prepare for the week ahead, there’s a map of each day below according to the sky - how it will play out on the world stage and in our own personal lives. We’ll look specifically at Lebanon - where Neptune is running the most historically significant transit in the nation’s existence this week - and explore Netanyahu’s chart, where this week’s sky delivers a sequence of hits that no political leader in the middle of a war would want. And we’ll ask the sky the question on everybody’s lips - are we on the brink of nuclear war? The sky answers starkly.

This week, the fog is the force, and the force is still moving, but there is a map through the mist. Join the Inner Circle and let’s read it together.

Dear friends,

There are weeks when I write this letter freely, and then there are those weeks when I sit with what the sky is saying for a long time before I decide how much to share openly.

This is one of the latter.

What the sky is showing us for the week ahead as we move deeper into the month of April is not something I feel comfortable laying out in full in a public post, because I am aware of the line between helping people prepare and frightening them, and what needs to be said this week walks very close to that line. I never wish to play any part in stoking people’s fear - this space is a place where we transmute fear with insight - but what needs to be said this week carries a weight that I only feel right sharing with those who are ready to hold it. For that reason, I’m unpacking it in the private space for the Inner Circle, for those who are ready to receive what’s coming without collapsing into it. If that feels like you, then keep reading with an open heart.

What I will say, on this side of the door, is that the sky is warning us that what is coming this week and this month is heavy. Heavier, in all likelihood, than any month any of us have ever lived through. Not one event, but a cascading sequence of fire, pressure and disruption arriving in the charts of nations, leaders and institutions all at once.

If you have ever wished that someone could have warned you before the global pandemic hit - before you had to improvise and scramble and absorb the shock of a world rearranging itself without notice - this week’s letter is that warning. We’re not dealing with a virus this time (although apparently a new variant’s on the loose that’s vaccine resistant, because, of course it is). What’s ahead is a different kind of crisis, in some ways harder to navigate because it arrives not as a single detonation but as a sustained build up of pressure across the month on its way to release.

I am going to lay out exactly what the sky shows us, in detail, including what it says about the charts of the major players at the centre of what is unfolding. I am sharing this not to scare, but to prepare - we may be standing on the brink of catastrophe, but catastrophe is not the destination, it’s the path. On the other side of what is coming is a better and more equitable world, eventually - the skies are clear about that - but we do not get there without walking through here first, and it pays to know what the terrain looks like before we step into it.

The map is inside, for all those ready to read it and who want to know how to prepare for the days and weeks ahead. Join the Inner Circle and let’s read it together.

Dear friends,

This is a week of reckoning dressed as revelation.

The Full Moon in Libra rises on Thursday April 2 and does what Libra Full Moons always do - brings everything kept in comfortable shadow into full, unsparing light. The truth in our relationships. The truth in our finances. The truth in every arrangement we have been quietly maintaining past its honest expiry date. What could not be looked at directly becomes impossible to look away from.

And then, right behind it, comes the fire.

Through April, the sky assembles something it has not assembled in any of our lifetimes - a gathering of planets in Aries, the sign of fire and forward force, stacking at the threshold of the new world the Genesis Reset seeded in February. Seven bodies in the sign of the warrior, arriving in sequence, building toward a pressure the old world has no framework to absorb.

That fire has a name, and it has a purpose. It is not random destruction - it is the Age of the Mind burning out so the Age of the Heart can rise. The crisis coming through these months, the disruption to everything we built our world on, is not a punishment visited upon the innocent, but the old architecture completing itself - the inevitable end of a civilisation built on extraction, on the buried and the hidden, on the Neptunian oil that powered the mind’s long dominion. The fire is not arriving to destroy us, but to clear what we could never have cleared ourselves.

When people hear the Age of the Heart, some think softness, gentleness and compassion that makes room for everything. The fire of April is about to correct that misunderstanding, because love, at its most fundamental, is not soft, but strong. Love is truth, and truth is fire, like the fire of Aries about to burn through everything that this week’s Full Moon reveals to be untrue. This is love, the strong and unflinching kind, arriving in its truest form, doing what it has always done when the heart is finally the one holding it.

If you want to understand what love actually means in the Age of the Heart - and what the sky is asking of us, day by day, through this extraordinary week and month ahead - the map is inside.

Dear friends,

Who knew the dawn of a new age would feel so very grim? Well, the stars did, of course, but many of us had hoped it all might feel a bit more hopeful. But instead, the Strait of Hormuz is still closed, oil is over $100 a barrel, fuel prices are skyrocketing, and supermarket shelves are beginning to show the first gaps as we tumble headfirst into the worst energy crisis in our lifetimes. Allies that America spent a year bullying have declined, one by one, to come and help clean up a war they were never asked about and never wanted. The largest supply disruption in the history of the global oil market is now in full swing, and the man who started it is threatening to blow up civilian infrastructure on social media at 3am.

Yes, a new age is dawning, but first the old one must be put to rest, and the one we have been living in is not going quietly. This is the end of the age of oil, and the age of the mind, and the age of dominance, fear and control, and the beginning of an age that is led by the heart. We are walking through what feels like chaos on our way to coherence - this is what the way between worlds feels like.

Beneath the larger story of bombs falling and oil prices rising and the ensuing food scarcity and energy instability is the political reckoning running alongside it. What is unravelling in the Gulf and in fuel queues worldwide is also unravelling in the White House. The end of the petroleum age and the end of the Trump era are not two separate stories - it is all one collapse, wearing different faces. It’s all the same story, told at different scales, arriving at the same moment, because the sky planned it that way.

This week marks the real new year - celestially, at least - now that the Sun has stepped into Aries and joined Saturn, Neptune, Venus, Chiron, and the Moon all already gathered at the first degrees, holding the frequency of a new world seeded by the Genesis Reset on February 20. The old world doesn’t step aside - it has to be moved, and this week is the beginning of that movement as the seed begins to bloom by breaking through what’s been covering it.

What unfolds from now through July is a deliberate, astrologically precise sequence of escalating pressure that will change the shape of the world - a series of devastating revelations and disruptions that act like a fire sweeping through, destroying everything that is hollow and has been surviving on borrowed time and borrowed credibility, held together by fog rather than substance.

Through the coming global crisis of April, May and June, we move full speed ahead towards a showdown on July 4 - America’s 250th birthday - that will be marked in the history books for more reasons than just the cake. The United States and its current leader are on a collision course with destiny that meets its destination on the same day the nation celebrates the anniversary of its founding two and half centuries ago. America and Donald Trump have both been on the run from karma since the beginning, and July 4 this year is when it arrives for them both at once.

Trump’s crown is slipping, and the throne he has built for himself is beginning to quake. The sky tells us that these are the days of the fall of kings, and even those who have long seemed untouchable - who have outrun consequence for far too long - are about to find out how much karma can sting.

What follows below is a day-by-day map for the Inner Circle of what the sky has planned for the week ahead, and the months ahead too. We’ll unpack Trump’s chart, and the United States chart, and JD Vance’s chart, to see what the sky has to say about the days ahead, as America’s king looks set to take a fall.

Dear friends,

This week, the sky hands us a preview of what is to come, and in doing so, hands us something vital - a map.

Not a vague promise that things will get better or some kind of lofty spiritual reassurance dressed up as prophecy, but a precise, step-by-step account of exactly what is coming, when it arrives, what it means, and what we will be standing in when it is done.

On Friday, the Equinox opens - the real new year, the one the sky has always kept, older and truer than any calendar we’ve invented - and what greets the Sun at that threshold is extraordinary: a gathering of bodies at the most potent degree in the zodiac, holding a frequency that has been building since Saturn and Neptune seeded a new reality in Aries back in February. This is not ordinary. This is the universe turning a page with its full attention.

But the Equinox is only the beginning of the story. What follows it - through April, through May and June, through the long refining heat of July - is the part we need to understand clearly. Because what is coming is catastrophe - it must be said plainly - but not in the way we fear. It is something more specific than that, more targeted, and in the end, more purposeful. The fire that is gathering has a name, and - thanks to the sky - we know what it will burn and what will be left standing when it is done.

What follows below is a day-by-day map for the Inner Circle of what the sky has planned for the week ahead, and the months ahead too. The exact sequence from here to July, the nature of the refining fire and what it will ask of us, the moment the old world finally stops screaming over the top of us, and what we will be able to hear for the first time in the silence that follows. Plus, we’ll have a look at Benjamin Netanyahu’s chart to see if the persistent rumors that he may have died in a missile strike hold up against the sky.

The green shoots of a new world await us, but first, we need to understand the coming fire. If you want the map so you can chart the way forward, join the Inner Circle and let’s read it together.

Dear friends,

The Earth has shifted its poles before. At least 183 times in recorded geological history, the planet’s magnetic field has collapsed and rebuilt itself around a new north. The last full reversal was 780,000 years ago, but 42,000 years ago, during what scientists now call the Laschamps excursion, it very nearly happened again when the field dropped to a fraction of its strength, the poles wandered, the sky filled with radiation, and the world that emerged from the other side of it looked nothing like the world that went in.

The Neanderthals didn't survive it. For those who lived through it, it must have felt like the end of days, as everything that had been orienting the world - the invisible architecture that told every creature where north was - briefly, catastrophically, ceased to function. Nothing could calibrate - the entire navigational architecture of the world lost coherence all at once, before slowly, painfully, reorganising around something new.

In the coming months, the sky tells us we will experience this ourselves - not a geological polar shift, not land masses slipping all over the Earth’s mantle, but the geopolitical and spiritual equivalent. That is where we are, not in the rock and ice, but in the architecture of power.

The stars just birthed the seed of a new reality when Saturn met Neptune at the first degrees of Aries, and like clockwork the old world has begun tearing itself apart. This is the beginning of the shift, and the sky tells us it is going to get much more turbulent these next few months.

This week is the breath before the battering - the last relatively quiet week before the intensity arrives in earnest. From April, the noise of the dying world becomes nearly unbearable. If what we have already lived through this year feels like a great deal, the sky says we have not yet seen the half of it.

It’s going to feel intense.
It’s going to feel turbulent.
It’s going to feel violent.
It’s going to feel like the end of the world.

But it is not the end of the world - it is the end of a world, one that was never built to last, and the compass spinning is not a sign that north has disappeared. It is a sign that north is moving.

By the end of July, the new frequency locks in, overriding the old, and the chaos and calamity settles as we emerge from the rubble blinking in the light of something genuinely new. Not peace fully formed, and not a new reality delivered whole, but the bones of a beginning. The foundation of something better, quietly taking shape beneath our feet.

There is a way to navigate what comes without fear. Nothing that is happening now, and nothing that is about to happen, is designed to destroy us - we are being shaken so that everything which can no longer come with us gets left behind. How we experience these next months depends almost entirely on how tightly we cling to what the fire is already coming for.

The map in the sky tells us exactly what to expect - not just personally, but globally. It gives us the full picture of how these coming months play out for the United States, Israel, Iran, the Middle East, Europe, Russia, China, Australia, Canada, the British monarchy, Trump, Netanyahu, Putin - all the major players rattled by the coming pole shift, each one struck in the place most specifically, most unavoidably theirs to reckon with. None of us will leave 2026 the way we came in.

What follows below is a day-by-day map for the Inner Circle of what the sky has planned for us all for the week ahead, and the months ahead. This is the map the sky is handing us so we can walk the turbulence without being broken by it, and arrive at the other side knowing that what was shaken needed to fall.

If you want to understand what the sky is building toward
If you want to be assured that chaos is not the destination…
If you want to know how each fault line in the global order meets what’s coming…
If you want to find your footing before the ground shifts beneath us all…

Join the Inner Circle, and let’s find the way forward together.

Dear friends,

As we step into March, the skies over the Middle East are burning, after the United States and Israel launched strikes and Iran retaliated, sparking fears this is the start of World War III.

The map in the sky suggests this is not a war that consumes the world, but the final convulsions of a system that only knows how to solve problems with dominance, control, and fire - playing its last card in the face of a new frequency born to replace it. The old world heard the new world’s signal under the Saturn-Neptune conjunction last week and responded the only way it knows how: with bombs.

We are living inside the most intense astrological corridor most of us will ever walk through. In February, a solar eclipse in Aquarius asked who the system actually serves. Then Saturn met Neptune at 0° Aries and dissolved the old structure that protected the answer. Now this week, the Lunar Eclipse in Virgo arrives on March 3, completing the sequence, and bringing the receipts.

Virgo is the forensic analyst - the body that remembers what the mind tried to file away - and with Mercury retrograde in Pisces opposing the eclipse, the mechanism is specific: old information surfacing in new context. Documents people already had but didn’t understand. Connections between names sitting in plain sight across 3.5 million pages. Files that suddenly get found by the right person at the right moment.

Where Aquarius showed us the network is broken, this week Virgo coughs up the itemised invoice of exactly how broken, and shows exactly who profited.

This week’s eclipse is lighting up the charts of many major global players - the United States, Israel, Iran, the United Kingdom’s House of Windsor, Trump, Netanyahu, Musk, King Charles - and the chart lighting up most brightly of all this week, is none other than Jeffrey Epstein. Different wounds, different exposures, but the same forensic question landing everywhere at once: does the image match the foundation?

This week’s eclipse is going to accelerate what’s already surfacing, not start something new. The detonation has begun, and this week the dust clears enough to see the full scale of the crater. We’re watching the opening scenes of the systematic exposure and dismantling of structures built on secrecy, exploitation, and the hoarding of power.

It will be uncomfortable, and some of it will be sickening, but often that’s what the arrival of accountability feels like, and accountability, however painful, is the foundation that the new world is built on. Without it, we’re just painting over rot. With it, we can actually begin.

We’re not watching the end of the world. We’re watching the end of A world that was never built to last, and the birth of one that is. The bombs are falling because the old world has no other language left. But the audit doesn't care about the noise. It has a schedule, and this week, the light falls on the fine print.

What follows below is a day-by-day map for the Inner Circle of what the sky is doing and how to walk the week ahead, collectively and personally. We’ll dive into the charts of all the leaders, nations and institutions being hit by this week’s eclipse, and we’ll also explore how this moment will land for each of us personally.

Dear friends,

We have just walked through the most significant cosmic shift in thousands of years. Most people don’t even know it happened, but last Friday, Saturn and Neptune met at 0° Aries - an unprecedented conjunction at the absolute beginning of the zodiac, the Genesis Reset. A new frequency entered the field, not with a thunderclap or a headline, but quietly, the way seeds germinate - underground, in the dark, before any green thing shows.

The new world’s signal is finally sending, but meanwhile, the old world is more volatile and making less sense than ever. Just because the seed of the new world has sprouted doesn’t mean we’ve arrived at our destination - it will take time for that seed to become a mighty oak. Between now and then, the old world and all it’s structures must crumble to make space for that oak to grow.

This week - and in all the weeks to come this year - we will see the old world grow louder and stranger as it doubles down on its own noise, because noise is all it has left. The political theater will intensify. The information will get murkier. The things that used to make sense will stop adding up. We will find ourselves reading the same story three times and walking away less certain than when we started. This is what happens when the old frequency loses its signal.

Don’t mistake the volume for power. Noise is not strength - it’s the sound a dying frequency makes when it’s losing its grip. The old world is not surging - it’s collapsing, and collapse is loud. It rattles the walls on the way down. It performs, makes threats, doubles down and generates headlines, but none of that is power. It’s the sound of something that no longer has any.

The new frequency - the one birthed last week at the Saturn/Neptune conjunction - lives underneath the one we’re used to tuning to. We won’t find it in our social media feeds, or in the Congress hearing room, or at the State of the Union, or in the commentary about the commentary. We’ll find it when we stop trying to understand it all with our minds and drop, instead, into something quieter. Something that was there before the world got so loud. Our heart knows the new frequency. It has been waiting for it. And this week, if we tune in, we will feel it pulsing underneath the noise.

This week will feel foggy as Mercury stations retrograde on Thursday and the atmosphere thickens. But the fog is not the enemy - it’s the evidence that something is condensing into form. The fog is what a new world looks like before it has hardened into the shape you can point to and name.

And this week’s fog has teeth. Running underneath the murk is a live wire Mars energy that builds all week, starting now with Mars sextile Chiron and building to Friday with Mars square Uranus, the sky’s most volatile pairing, cracking through the haze with sudden disruptions, electric reversals, and the kind of energy that moves faster than anyone can prepare for. Already we’re seeing unrest in Mexico across Puerto Vallarta and Jalisco state after army forces killed El Mencho triggering retaliatory violence. There will be more of this energy across the world this week, building to Friday’s square.

This isn’t just a week to stay soft and patient; it’s a week to stay grounded. The fog will blur your vision and the electricity will test your nervous system. Both at once is the signature of this particular moment: dissolution and disruption, running in parallel, asking you to hold your center in conditions that want to knock it loose.

What follows below is a day-by-day map for the Inner Circle of what the sky is doing and how to walk the week ahead, collectively and personally. We’ll look at Trump’s chart as he prepared to give the State of the Union address on Tuesday, and at Bill and Hillary Clinton’s charts as they are due to testify to Congress on the Epstein matter at the end of the week.

And, with all this Mars energy swirling, we'll look at a question that is circulating in breathless headlines this week: is a strike on Iran imminent? The sky has something specific to say about this - particularly around Friday's live wire energy, and about what the months ahead hold for that nation and the world watching it. The war drums are part of this week's fog too, and the astrology cuts through it.

Plus, there’s an unusual planet parade happening this Saturday - a visual display you’ll be able to see in the sky, as the entire inner solar system queues up to walk through the door the Genesis Reset opened. All the details on that are below.

The reset has happened, now we must learn to tune amidst the fog and the fury.

Join the Inner Circle, and let’s find the frequency together…..

Dear friends,

This is the week we’ve been waiting for. Seriously, if you ever wondered why you chose to come into this life and live on Earth at this exact moment, or felt like you were meant for something, waiting for something to click….this week is that click.

In January we passed through the first cosmic gate of 2026 - the pressure test, the cracks in the facade, the sense that something fundamental was loosening - and now this week we walk through the second. A major, long-awaited, unprecedented turning point.

Tuesday brings a solar eclipse at the final degree of Aquarius, the same day as Chinese New Year - the dawning of the Year of the Fire Horse. The last Fire Horse year was 1966, when everything caught fire at once and led to a generation singing “This is the dawning of the Age of Aquarius.” They felt it coming. They caught the vision early and planted a seed in the ground. This week, that seed buried long ago - the one many have given up on - finally sprouts beneath our feet.

Friday brings the Saturn-Neptune conjunction at 0° Aries. The Genesis Reset. An aspect that has never occurred in recorded human history. The cosmic ignition of what began 60 years ago. If 1966 was the dawning, 2026 is the dawn actually breaking.

This week, a new frequency comes online, humming beneath us, steadily rising. An ancient frequency our soul remembers - one this planet knew eons ago, before the pages of history were written, once, when there was harmony.

This week, the long lost frequency returns. And so dawns the Age of the Heart.

Now don’t be expecting fireworks - at least not the celebratory kind. This week will certainly be explosive, or perhaps more accurately implosive, as the eclipse exposes what’s already hollow and the scaffolding of the dying old world continues to collapse. The machinery that rose to smother the seed planted sixty years ago is finally falling under the weight of its own falseness. Authority figures will speak and find their words landing differently, as if the signal that once carried their voice has gone thin. Systems will continue by habit, but something essential will have leaked out.

When Saturn meets Neptune at the zodiac’s point of pure beginning on Friday, there won’t be fanfare. Just a quiet hum beneath the surface as a new current switches on, as the old frequency flickers out and something ancient begins to stir back to life.

The bridge to a new world is finally ready for crossing, but not everyone will make it over. Some people, some systems, some ways of being are so deeply wired to the old signal that they won’t be able to receive the new one. They’ll keep broadcasting, keep fighting, keep demanding attention - but the current that once carried them will quietly stop flowing. There’s a number of world leaders whose charts are incompatible with what they sky says comes next. If you want to know who, keep reading.

What follows below is the day-by-day map for the Inner Circle - how this second cosmic gate unfolds on the world stage and in our personal lives. We’ll look at Leslie Wexner’s chart as he testifies before Congress on February 18, one day after the eclipse cracks the sky open - perfect timing for a man long tied to Jeffrey Epstein and recently named as a co-conspirator to be called under oath.

We’ll unpack why the last Fire Horse year led to the Summer of Love but couldn’t hold, and why 2026 completes what they prophesied. We’ll map which leaders are being tuned out by the frequency shift and why. And we’ll sit with what the Genesis Reset actually means - not just as an astrological event, but as a marker in time when the circuitry of the old world begins to lose its voltage, and what’s built on heart starts to find momentum.

Fog is a feature this week - don’t fight it. The seeds being planted won’t reveal their nature just yet, but something irreversible is beginning. The old world will be very loud this week - we must trust what we cannot yet see.

The Dawning of the Aquarian Age the elders sang about wasn’t metaphor. It was prophecy. And it’s starting this week.

Let’s walk through this gate together…

Over the past few weeks, thousands of pages of FBI interview notes, emails, flight logs, court filings, and internal Justice Department material connected to Jeffrey Epstein have finally been unsealed after years of suppression.

On paper, this should have brought clarity, but in reality, it has done the opposite.

Some of the material confirms what we already knew. Some fills in long-missing gaps. Some reveals how many powerful people continued moving in Epstein’s orbit long after the world understood who he was. And some of it lays bare, in confronting detail, the scale of the unfathomable depravity that surrounded him, and the full horror of what these monsters did to children.

The victims of Epstein’s crimes deserve justice, and the rest of us deserve answers.

How did this happen in plain sight?
How did a man like Epstein build influence at the highest levels of power?
How did he evade consequence for so long?
And why does his death, years later, still refuse to sit comfortably inside the official story?

The list of powerful people and entities connected to Epstein continues to grow: Maxwell. Wexner. Trump. Prince Andrew. Mentions of the CIA. Speculation around Mossad. References to Russia, Israel, and even the House of Windsor. Not as proven conclusions or concrete assertions of criminality or wrong doing, but as threads running repeatedly through the material, weaving questions without clear answers.

There is now more documented information available about Jeffrey Epstein than at any point since his death, and yet, the closer we look, the more the picture seems to blur. The documents tell part of the story, but some of what cannot be seen in those files is written somewhere else entirely.

What follows is not a catalogue of Epstein’s heinous crimes, but a reconstruction of how he operated - how he rose, how he was protected, how he fell, and why the night he died remains the most revealing moment of all. Because it is in the circumstances of his death - not his life - that a clear story emerges, one not just written about in documents and testimony, but in the sky and in the charts of those who circled in his orbit.

The world has questions.
The sky offers answers.

We’ll begin by unpacking the story on the ground - what the files show and what has been reported about the depraved life Epstein lived and the circumstances of his death. Then, once the documented trail reaches its limit, we’ll turn our attention upward - to the sky above that prison cell on the night Epstein’s life ended - to examine what the symbolism of that moment reveals when viewed through a different lens.

Because sometimes the clearest record of what happened isn’t found in a stack of files, but in what the sky never forgets.

And when the truth is hard to see in front of us, it helps to look up.

From Nowhere to Millionaire

The Epstein saga began back in 1974 when, at the age of twenty-one, Epstein scored a job as a mathematics and physics teacher at the elite Dalton School in Manhattan. Despite having no university degree or teaching qualifications, headmaster Donald Barr hired him anyway, and he taught there for about a year before being hired by Bear Stearns in 1975 after being introduced through Dalton parent connections.

Epstein worked in the firm’s special products division, where he learned how money actually moves at the top end of town - trusts, offshore structures, tax minimisation, and quiet discretion. He rose unusually fast for someone without a degree and left Bear Stearns in 1981 under murky circumstances that have never been clearly explained.

In 1982, Epstein set up his own financial advisory service for billionaires only, and began moving in the social circles of the ultra-wealthy in New York and Palm Beach. By the mid-1980s, Epstein had positioned himself as a fixer for the very rich - someone who could quietly handle sensitive financial matters with extreme discretion.

Enter Leslie Wexner - founder of The Limited, Abercrombie & Fitch, Bath & Body Works, and Victoria’s Secret - who hired Epstein as his financial adviser in 1987, and who, by 1989, had granted Epstein extraordinarily broad power of attorney over his finances, allowing Epstein to effectively manage his money, properties, and financial structures.

That’s as much as we publicly know about Epstein’s finances and how he came to be so wealthy. What is better documented is how he used his money and influence in a vast criminal sex trafficking operation.

The First Arrest, and the Sweetheart Deal

By 2008, a police investigation uncovered dozens of underage girls, some as young as 14, had been lured to Epstein’s Palm Beach mansion, paid for “massages,” and then sexually abused and trafficked. Law enforcement had mountains of evidence, including witness testimony, flight records, seized phonebooks, and surveillance.

According to Forbes, newly unsealed FBI interview notes contained in the Epstein files indicate that, according to former Palm Beach police chief Michael Reiter, Donald Trump was “one of the very first people” to call police in 2006 when the investigation became known locally.

Reiter recalled Trump saying, “Thank goodness you’re stopping him, everyone has known he’s been doing this,” describing Epstein’s partner, Ghislaine Maxwell, as his “operative” and “evil,” and urging authorities to focus on her. The account suggests Trump was aware of the allegations two years before Epstein’s arrest, despite his repeated claims that he did not know what Epstein was doing at the time.

Epstein was eventually arrested in Florida in 2008, but instead of facing federal sex trafficking charges (which could have put him behind bars for life) Epstein was handed a secretive, non-prosecution agreement, and ended up pleading guilty to two minor state charges: solicitation of prostitution and solicitation of a minor. He served just 13 months in a private wing of the Palm Beach County jail, was allowed to leave the facility for up to 12 hours a day, six days a week on “work release,” and had his driver pick him up daily while he continued business as usual.

It was little more than a slap on the wrist, a sweet-heart deal that shut down the federal investigation, granted immunity to his unnamed co-conspirators, and was kept hidden from the victims, violating their rights under federal law. It was, by every legal standard, a get-out-of-jail-free card stamped by then–U.S. Attorney Alex Acosta, who later claimed he was told to back off because Epstein “belonged to intelligence.”

Notably, Acosta went on to serve as Donald Trump’s Secretary of Labor when he became the President of the United States in 2016.

The Intelligence Rumors

In the years following Epstein’s arrest, journalists, former intelligence figures, and investigators repeatedly raised the possibility that Epstein was more than a predator - that he may have functioned as a facilitator, fixer, or conduit within elite circles where sex, access, and influence overlapped.

Former Israeli intelligence officer Ari Ben-Menashe publicly claimed Epstein worked with Israel’s intelligence agency, Mossad, in “honeytrap” operations designed to compromise powerful figures. Investigative journalist Dylan Howard reported on these claims, and victims told reporters that Epstein himself boasted about intelligence ties. Julie K. Brown, whose reporting for the Miami Herald helped reopen the Epstein case, said the Mossad theory is “not far-fetched,” while stressing there is no direct proof.

Questions have also been raised about possible ties to intelligence in the United States, with the Wall Street Journal revealing that CIA Director William Burns met privately with Epstein three times in 2014, years after Epstein’s conviction. His calendar shows meetings with multiple senior government and intelligence figures during that period. The CIA has said Burns met Epstein for advice on foreign policy, but the contacts have never been fully explained in public.

Keyword searches of recently released DOJ files relating to Epstein also show thousands of references to Russia. Among the material are records showing Epstein sought introductions to Russian political figures, including efforts to secure an introduction to Putin himself through intermediaries like former Norwegian prime minister Thorbjørn Jagland and former Israeli prime minister Ehud Barak. One document shows Epstein writing to a Russian official, Sergey Belyakov, claiming that a woman from Moscow was attempting to “blackmail a group of powerful businessmen in New York. It is bad for business for everyone involved.”

Jagland is now being investigated by Norwegian authorities on suspicion of aggravated corruption over his communications and contacts with Epstein. Polish Prime Minister Donald Tusk has also announced that his country will be launching an investigation into Epstein’s possible ties with Russian intelligence. Similar investigations have also been announced in Latvia, France, and the United Kingdom, all focused on financial arrangements, access, and potential conflicts of interest.

While solid proof that Epstein was an intelligence asset has not yet emerged, it’s becoming clearer, at the very least, that Epstein trafficked children for sex whilst moving comfortably in circles where political power, money, and secrecy converged. That combination - sex and secrets - is the raw material intelligence services have used for centuries.

None of this proves Epstein worked for any intelligence service, but it does underline how unusual it was for a convicted child sex offender to retain access to political, financial, and diplomatic circles at the highest levels.

The Second Arrest

Epstein found himself in prison once again after being arrested for a second time on July 6, 2019, this time by federal prosecutors in New York, on charges of sex trafficking and conspiracy to traffic minors across state lines.

The indictment outlined dozens of underage girls had been lured under the pretence of modeling gigs or financial help, only to be abused, groomed, and traded across his network. During a raid on his Manhattan townhouse, the FBI recovered hundreds - possibly thousands - of nude photographs of underage girls.

This wasn’t just a rehash of 2008 - it was a federal reckoning, and the stakes were enormous. For the first time, Epstein was facing up to 45 years in prison, and the very real prospect of a public trial that could expose the names of dozens of powerful people who travelled in his circle.

According to documents obtained by the Associated Press, in the two weeks leading up to his death, Epstein’s mental condition seemed to deteriorate as he complained that he was constantly agitated and unable to sleep as he struggled to adapt to prison life, jail officials reported.

On July 23, 2019 he was placed on psychological observation after he allegedly attempted to commit suicide, leaving his neck bruised and scraped, but after 31 hours on suicide watch, Epstein reportedly insisted that he was not suicidal, telling a jail psychologist he had a “wonderful life” and “would be crazy” to end it. Six days before he died he was taken off suicide watch. One day before his death, his cellmate was transferred out, leaving him alone in his cell.

A Mysterious Death

The day before Epstein died, a U.S. federal court unsealed documents from a defamation case involving Virginia Giuffre alleging that she had been trafficked to then Prince Andrew when she was 17. Alongside the allegations was the now-famous photograph of Andrew with his arm around Giuffre, with Epstein’s then partner, Ghislaine Maxwell, standing in the background - a photograph it would eventually be alleged was taken by Epstein himself. That image moved the story from legal documents into front-page global news overnight.

According to a memo turned over to the Associated Press, the night before Epstein died - while news of Prince Andrew dominated the headlines - Epstein was meeting with his lawyers when he excused himself and told them he needed to make a call to his family, telling an employee of the jail that he wanted to talk to his mother. Not particularly mysterious, except for the fact that his mother had been dead for fifteen years.

On the night of August 9, 2019, Epstein was locked in his cell around 7.30pm, with two guards on duty that were supposed to do checks every thirty minutes that night, only they didn’t - phone records and computer logs show they were browsing the internet and shopping online for furniture and motorcycles. They were later charged for falsifying the logbook to make it look like they had done the checks, but in reality, no guard saw Epstein for roughly 8 hours between 10:30pm and 6:30am.

The cameras in Epstein’s tier had been on the blink for weeks, and as a result, the cameras facing his cell malfunctioned and the hallway footage was missing. But newly released Department of Justice documents show that investigators who reviewed surveillance footage from the night of Epstein’s death noted what was described as an orange-colored shape moving up a staircase toward the isolated, locked tier where his cell was located at approximately 10:39pm.

Epstein was found hanging dead in his cell at 6.30am on the morning of August 10, 2019, with a sheet looped around his neck.

The official cause of death was ruled a suicide by hanging, but the NYC medical examiner’s ruling of suicide was publicly contested by Dr. Michael Baden, the forensic pathologist hired by Epstein’s brother, who argued the broken neck bones were more consistent with strangulation than suicide.

Prince Andrew’s Downfall

Epstein’s death did not end the whispers about his sordid dealings, depraved lifestyle and accusations of criminality. If anything, the whispers only intensified, as the allegations made against then Prince Andrew continued to make headlines, dragging Epstein’s name along with them.

On November 16, 2019, Andrew sat for an interview on BBC Newsnight with Emily Maitlis that he intended to be a reputational reset, but it was anything but. His explanations about the allegations and the now famous photograph were widely ridiculed. When questioned about the fact that he had been photographed visiting Epstein in New York in December 2010 - two years after Epstein’s 2008 conviction for soliciting a minor - Andrew acknowledged the visit and described it as a mistake, saying he had gone to Epstein’s home to end the friendship in person. Subsequent reporting, however, showed that he remained in contact with Epstein after that visit. The interview became known as one of the most catastrophic PR moments in modern royal history, and reignited public interest in the larger Epstein story.

On May 27, 2020, a documentary titled Filthy Rich landed on Netflix, bringing the Epstein story to a mass global audience in a way news reporting never quite had. Built around survivor testimony, court records, and interviews with investigators and journalists, the series laid out how Epstein operated, how young girls were drawn into his world, and how the system around him allowed it to continue for years. Rather than chasing spectacle, it focused on the mechanics of grooming, access, money, and silence, making the structure of the abuse understandable to viewers who may only have known the headlines.

Though the documentary focussed on Epstein, it also introduced Ghislaine Maxwell as a significant figure in the story - the woman survivors say befriended them, normalized the environment, and helped draw them in.

Ghislaine Maxwell’s Conviction

Ghislaine Maxwell is the daughter of Robert Maxwell, the British media baron long accused by former intelligence figures and biographers of having secret ties to Israeli intelligence, though never officially confirmed. He died in 1991 in circumstances widely described as mysterious after falling from his yacht, just days before it emerged that he had looted hundreds of millions of pounds from his companies’ pension funds to prop up his failing empire.

Soon after her father’s death, Ghislaine met Jeffrey Epstein, moving from the orbit of one powerful figure alleged to have intelligence connections into the inner world of another man whose extraordinary access to wealth and influence has prompted similar speculation.

Less than two months after the Netflix documentary dropped, Ghislaine was arrested on July 2, 2020, and charged with helping Epstein recruit, groom, and traffic underage girls in the 1990s and early 2000s. From that moment on, she would not see the outside of a cell without armed escort.

Her trial began in November 2021 in the Southern District of New York, and over several weeks, four women testified that as teenagers they had been drawn into Epstein’s world through Maxwell, who befriended them, normalized sexual contact, and helped manage the logistics of their abuse.

On December 29, 2021, after five days of deliberation, the jury found her guilty on five of six counts, including sex trafficking of a minor and transporting minors for illegal sexual activity. The judge described her as a sophisticated predator who had played a critical role in enabling Epstein’s abuse, and in June 2022, she was sentenced to 20 years in federal prison.

Hers remains the only criminal trial in which the inner workings of Epstein’s operation were laid out in a courtroom under oath, and Maxwell remains the only person convicted in connection with Epstein’s sex trafficking of minors.

Donald Trump’s Denials

Public demand for further investigations, indictments, and trials continued right through until the 2024 presidential election, when Donald Trump campaigned on releasing what supporters began calling “the Epstein files” - the investigative material the Department of Justice had gathered relating to Jeffrey Epstein and his crimes. Trump returned to the White House promising greater transparency around the case, but once in office, that promise became less clear in practice.

Early in his term, his Attorney General Pam Bondi held a highly publicized event displaying binders labelled “Epstein” and distributing them to a group of conservative media personalities. The gesture was framed as openness, but journalists quickly noted that the documents in the binders largely consisted of material that had already been publicly released through court cases and prior disclosures.

As questions persisted, the Department of Justice and the FBI stated in mid-2025 that there would be no further indictments in the Epstein matter. The announcement triggered renewed public frustration across the political spectrum, with many asking why so much investigative material continued to be suppressed.

When Elon Musk posted on social media that “Donald Trump is in the files,” the comment fueled speculation online about why broader disclosures were not forthcoming. News reports documented that Trump and Epstein moved in overlapping social circles in the 1990s and early 2000s, a history Trump repeatedly sought to distance himself from, despite mounting evidence.

Eventually, Congress passed the Epstein Files Transparency Act on 19 November 2025, legally requiring the Department of Justice to release the Epstein files within 30 days. The DOJ missed the deadline, eeking out only a small number of documents at the end of December 2025, before eventually dumping over 3 million files - still heavily redacted - in February 2026, holding back millions more that they said could not be released to the public due to legal, privacy, and evidentiary constraints.

What the Files Revealed

What people found inside the Epstein files was truly shocking - the psychological impact of the allegations contained in the files is hard to overstate.

The files include references to emails showing someone sending Epstein photos of children, asking if girls were “too old” for him, with the senders’ names completely redacted. A survivor telling Epstein she’d contracted an infection - he was the only person she’d been intimate with - being forced to see a male doctor he’d chosen. Someone reminding Epstein he’d once offered to buy her baby.

Some of the unverified allegations listed in anonymous FBI tip-offs, as described in the files, defy human comprehension. Alleged acts so vile, and so disturbing, they cannot be responsibly repeated here. The kind of details that makes you wish you hadn’t read them - unspeakable things that they did to children.

Though the publicly released Epstein files were heavily redacted, making it hard to identify any names that may have been involved in wrong-doing, at the very least they provided an extensive list of the names of powerful people who continued interacting with Epstein long after his criminal conviction for organising child prostitution in 2008.

Reporting by outlets including the BBC indicate that the files reveal post-conviction contact between Epstein and a range of public figures, including Bill Gates, Elon Musk, Deepak Chopra, Ehud Barak, Noam Chomsky, Larry Summers, Steve Bannon, Lord Peter Mandelson, Brad Karp, Børge Brende, Miroslav Lajčák, Steve Tisch, Peter Attia, Sarah Ferguson and Richard Branson, among others.

None of this implies criminal wrongdoing, but at the very least it calls into question the judgment of some of the most powerful and prominent people in the world.

The files also include an email dated July 24, 2025, bearing an FBI header, showing someone instructing colleagues to compile a spreadsheet on powerful figures connected to Epstein - the list included Donald Trump, Harvey Weinstein, Prince Andrew, Glenn Dubin, Jess Staley, Leon Black, Les Wexner, Alan Dershowitz, Bill Clinton, Tony Blair, Howard Lutnick, Alexander Guest, Jean-Luc Brunel, and William Barr. Again, this list of names does not imply there is any evidence of criminal wrong doing.

The Names They Tried to Keep Hidden

After demanding to review the unredacted Epstein files and see the names hidden behind the black bars, Representative Jamie Raskin said he was “able to determine, at least I believe, that there were tons of completely unnecessary redactions in addition to the failure to redact the names of victims, and so that’s troubling to us.”

In the publicly available redacted files, documents show that the FBI published a document in 2019 naming eight people as Epstein’s co-conspirators, though the only person on that list who was ever indicted was Ghislaine Maxwell, and the rest of the names were blacked out. “There’s no way you run a billion-dollar international child sex trafficking ring with just two people committing crimes, Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell.” Raskin said. “No way. It doesn’t work like that. So we need to figure out what other conspiracies were involved, what other co-conspirators were involved.”

After viewing the unredacted files, Representative Jared Moskowitz noted there are “lots of co-conspirators and they’re trafficking girls all across the world.” Representative Jamie Raskin said he viewed “lots of examples” of over-redactions, indicating that Donald Trump’s name was redacted in multiple places where it shouldn’t be, and that when he searched Trump’s name in the files it came up “more than a million times.”

Representatives Thomas Massie clarified that he did not see Trump listed as a potential co-conspirator. Trump has long denied any wrongdoing related to Epstein and has not been accused by authorities of any wrongdoing or charged with any crimes in connection with Epstein.

After pressure from Representatives Thomas Massie and Ro Khanna, Epstein’s old billionaire pal Leslie Wexner and modeling agent Jean-Luc Brunel were revealed to be listed as co-conspirators, but the documents state there was "limited evidence" against them. Brunel died in jail in 2022 (after being held on charges of rape of minors and trafficking of minors for sexual exploitation), while Wexner is alive and well (albeit 88 years old) and due to testify to Congress on February 18.

Wexner’s legal representative has indicated in a statement that the assistant U.S. attorney in charge of the Epstein investigation said at the time that Wexner was not a co-conspirator nor a target in any respect and that Wexner cooperated fully by providing background information on Epstein and was never contacted again.

This week, on the floor of Congress, Representatives Ro Khanna named five other men whose names had also been redacted in the files - CEO of DP World and an Emirati billionaire businessman Sultan Ahmed bin Sulayem, as well as four others identified as Nicola Caputo, Salvatore Nuara, Zurab Mikeladze and Leonic Leonov.

Khanna did not provide evidence of wrongdoing against any of these men nor have they been charged with a crime in connection with Epstein. “If we found six men that they were hiding in two hours,” Khanna said during his floor speech, “imagine how many men they are covering up for in those three million files.”

Khanna also warned that the fallout from the Epstein scandal could threaten the survival of the British monarchy. “This is the most vulnerable the British monarchy has ever been….maybe this will be the end of the monarchy,” Khanna said, calling on King Charles to answer for what he knew about his brother, Andrew, and that stripping his title of Prince is “not enough.”

He also singled out Peter Mandelson, arguing he could “bring down” the entire UK government after it was revealed the former ambassador to Washington may have leaked secret market-moving information to Epstein during the 2008 financial crisis. Mandelson now faces criminal investigation and has resigned from the House of Lords.

Suspicions and Conspiracy Theories

Far from clarifying anything, the Epstein files have unleashed a raft of new suspicions, accusations and conspiracy theories, based on information buried within the files. Now that we can see the extent of the horrors carried out as part of Epstein’s sick criminal enterprise, attention is turning to the way in which those in power hid the truth from the public for so long.

As the list of powerful people, entities and nations tangled up in Epstein’s web grows longer by the day, so does the list of people who stood to benefit from Epstein’s silence, triggering renewed speculation that he may not have committed suicide, but that his death may have been co-ordinated or staged. A new theory now circulating on the internet is that Epstein didn’t die at all, but may have been switched out and spirited away to Israel, though the evidence to support that theory is thin on the ground.

Epstein’s apparent suicide in jail is now being seen in a new light, as evidence emerged in the files that the US Attorney’s office for the Southern District of New York drafted a press release on August 9, 2019 announcing Epstein’s death the day before he was found dead in his cell on August 10, 2019. The reason this document was drafted has not been explained.

That a press release was drafted announcing Epstein’s death the day before he died is not the only revelation raising eyebrows and renewed questions since the release of the files.

Bill Barr was the U.S. Attorney General at the time of Epstein’s second arrest, and though Barr did not have a personal, documented relationship with Epstein, his father did. Remember back in 1974, Epstein got a job as a maths teacher at the prestigious Dalton School, even though he had no university degree or teaching qualifications? The headmaster who gave him that job was Donald Barr - Bill Barr’s father. There has never been any reporting to suggest this overlap was anything more than an unusual historical coincidence - the man who finally caught Epstein was the son of the man who gave him his first job - but that hasn’t stopped internet sleuths asking questions.

Raising even more questions is the fact that at the time of Epstein’s second arrest, Donald Trump was president (the first time around). Since it’s now been revealed that Donald Trump’s name appears in the Epstein files “more than a million times,” and it was reportedly Trump who reported Epstein to police in 2006 prior to his first arrest, the fact the Trump was president when Epstein was arrested in 2019 has prompted renewed public speculation online.

According to an email revealed in the Epstein files, Epstein’s brother, Mark, accused Donald Trump of being involved in the late convicted sex offender’s death in a tip sent to the FBI, and The Independent confirmed with Mark Epstein that he submitted the tip. “Jeffrey Epstein was murdered in his jail cell,” the tip read. “I have reason to believe he was killed because he was about to name names. I believe Presient (sic) Trump authorized is (sic) murder.”

Internet theories abound, some more outrageous than others. Was he taken out by Trump? By Russian intelligence? The CIA? Mossad? Queen Elizabeth? Is he still alive and well, living it up in the Middle East? Or was it suicide after all? At a certain point, the paper trail stops and the unanswered questions begin.

While internet detectives hunt for clues in the Epstein files, there are hints hidden in the stars about what actually went on the night of Epstein’s death - what was happening in Epstein’s chart and the charts of all the major players we now know were connected to him, thanks to the Epstein files.

The stars paint an illuminating picture, and even go some way towards not just answering the questions surrounding Epstein’s death, but also his life. Who was he working for, who could be implicated by him, and who stood to benefit the most from his permanent silence?

There’s enough speculation and misinformation floating around already about Epstein and his many associates, so the only responsible place to unpack all the charts and shine some light on the clues written in the sky is in the Inner Circle, where it can be read by those who are ready for the deeper story.

Who protected him?
Who benefited from him?
And what really happened the night he died?

From Epstein to Maxwell, to Wexner, Trump and the Andrew formerly known as Prince, to the CIA, Mossad to Russia, Israel and the House of Windsor….

The world has questions.

The sky has the answers….
