Weekly World Wrap-Up: May 5–11, 2025
Deportations, data leaks, constitutional chaos, billionaire showdowns, and global unrest - this week, the mask slipped. Here’s what the sky says next, and how to stay steady in the storm.
This week, the news didn’t pull punches.
U.S. citizen children were deported.
A president openly shrugged off the Constitution.
The world’s richest men sparred over the fate of the world’s poorest.
And beneath it all, something deeper stirred - an unraveling.
A remembering.
From Gaza to the Supreme Court, from Canada’s cold stare to Trump’s birthday parade plans, this week’s events were not random - they were symbolic. The chaos acted like a mirror, drawing out buried truths, exposing the fault lines in systems and in us.
If you’ve felt disillusioned, heartbroken, furious, or numb - that’s not weakness. That’s your soul recognizing truth.
Because when you read the news through astrology’s lens, you stop reacting - and start seeing. The Uranus shocks, the Pluto reckonings, the Mars provocations: they aren’t just sky theatre. They’re the blueprint for breakdown and rebirth.
So I’ve decoded the headlines for you.
Mapped the cosmic pressure points.
And woven in heart guidance to help you stay steady in the storm.
Because this isn’t just about what’s collapsing.
It’s about who you choose to be as it does.
Let’s dive in.
**The cosmic insights shared here are mapped to the real movements of the heavens during the past week.**
⚖️ Trump Shrugs Off the Constitution: “I Don’t Know”
When asked this week if he’s obligated to uphold the Constitution, Trump replied, “I don’t know.” Not fog - flare. Saturn in Pisces blurs lines, but this was erosion in real time.
Astrologically, Trump’s chart is cracking. Uranus is squaring his Mars through mid-2025 - think legal blowback, impulsive moves, explosive fallout. Pluto is also pressing on his Venus-Saturn in Cancer, testing loyalty, money, and public trust.
But it’s not just him. July 21–25 brings a full moon aligned with Pluto - directly opposing the U.S. Mercury. Truth, documents, and national oaths come under cosmic cross-examination. It’s a karmic echo of January 6, but this time, the megaphone may be in the hands of a judge, a journalist, or a whistleblower.
Pluto in Aquarius asks: when a leader forgets the oath, will the people remember?
❤️ Heart Guidance: If you’re feeling disillusioned, that’s not weakness - it’s wisdom waking up. Stay anchored in integrity. Speak clearly. Love harder. The truth is not a weapon - it’s a lighthouse.
🕵️♂️ Trump-Era Intel Scandal Surfaces
A newly unsealed report reveals Trump officials misused faulty intelligence to push mass deportations under the Alien Enemies Act. Another day, another shadow dragged into daylight - Pluto’s specialty.
This hits as Pluto opposes the U.S. Mercury - exposing government lies, rewriting the national narrative. Trump’s own chart is flaring too, with Uranus squaring his Mars and Pluto targeting his Cancer cluster. Truth isn’t just coming out - it’s turning sharp.
Expect more leaks, whistleblowers, and damning receipts through June. The legal pressure builds again late May, then spikes mid-July. False foundations are fracturing. This time, the paper trail might actually burn.
❤️ Heart Guidance: If it all feels too much - remember: you don’t have to carry every headline. You just have to stay true. In times of collapse, clarity is a form of courage. And love - steady, human, unbought - remains the most subversive act of all.
🚨 Citizen Kids Deported—System ‘Working as Designed’
Reports emerged this week of U.S. citizen children deported without due process - some torn from medical care, others barely old enough to speak. Mars in Cancer screams for protection of home, but this is state-sanctioned abandonment.
Trump’s chart is heating up fast: Uranus rattling his Mars spells recklessness with consequences. Pluto’s pressure on the U.S. Mercury and Pluto return chart cracks open what’s been buried - policy as cruelty, not accident.
This isn’t just a headline. It’s a warning flare. Watch for legal blowback, global scrutiny, and grassroots fury building toward the U.S. Cancer New Moon in early July. The reckoning won’t be televised. It’ll be deported - unless we bring it back.
❤️ Heart Guidance: If your heart aches reading this, let it. That’s your compass. Stay with the pain, but don’t let it paralyze you. Let it sharpen your voice. Let it anchor your outrage in love. These children aren’t forgotten - not if we remember them out loud.
🇬🇧🇨🇳🇺🇸 Trump’s Tariff Retreat: The Art of the Un-Deal
It started with a bang - 145% tariffs on Chinese goods, 25% duties on UK steel, auto levies through the roof. Trump called it strategy. But now? He’s rolling it all back.
This week, Trump stood beside UK PM Keir Starmer to announce a post-Brexit trade deal, slashing the very tariffs he imposed. A similar retreat is underway with China, where he’s signaling tariff cuts as deep as 50% - a dramatic reversal from the chest-puffing trade war he launched years ago. On paper, these moves look diplomatic. In reality, they’re damage control dressed in handshake optics.
Astrologically, it tracks. Uranus is squaring Trump’s Mars - classic for bold moves that backfire. Pluto is pressing on his Venus-Saturn in Cancer: the reputation cracks, the money pressure, the loyalty unraveling. But with Pluto also trining his Midheaven, he’s trying to salvage the legacy - repainting surrender as strength.
Trade is trust - until it’s leverage. And this week, it was surrender spun into spectacle.
❤️ Heart Guidance: If you’re wondering what to believe, trust your gut. Power always knows how to sell its retreat as victory. But the real strength? It’s in remembering who paid the price the first time - and asking who’ll pay next.
🇨🇦🇺🇸 Mark Carney Walks into the White House and Wrecks the Room
Canadian PM Mark Carney didn’t come to charm - he came to check Trump. In a chilly Oval Office meeting, Carney flatly rejected Trump’s annexation flirtations and made one thing crystal clear: Canada is not up for sale, merger, or manipulation. Not now. Not ever.
Trump tried his usual swagger. Carney brought receipts, steel, and a stare that could freeze Lake Ontario.
Astrologically, Venus in Cancer might look soft, but it’s the signature of a protector, not a pushover. This was mama bear diplomacy - the kind that roars quietly and leaves a mark. Pluto’s still pressing Trump’s Cancer planets, weakening his grip on old power games. Carney didn’t just say no. He showed Trump what actual leadership looks like: steady, sovereign, unshaken.
When bullies meet boundaries, they shrink. This week, Trump shrank.
🩸 Bill Gates v Elon Musk: “The World’s Richest Man Is Killing the Poorest Children”
This week, the mask slipped. Behind closed doors, U.S. diplomats have been nudging countries like India, Vietnam, and the DRC to approve Elon Musk’s Starlink service - just as tariff negotiations teeter in the background. The pressure’s subtle, but the pattern’s clear: diplomacy, now with a product pitch.
Meanwhile, Bill Gates came out swinging. “The picture of the world’s richest man killing the world’s poorest children is not a pretty one,” Gates said, accusing Musk of for slashing foreign aid programs through his role at the Department of Government Efficiency. USAID’s collapse has left life-saving meds rotting in warehouses and diseases like HIV and polio roaring back.
Neptune in Pisces asks where our compassion went. Pluto in Aquarius answers: into the hands of tech titans playing god. This isn’t innovation - it’s empire, cloaked in signal bars. When power consolidates this far, we’re no longer talking policy - we’re watching humanity get priced out of the future.
❤️ Heart Guidance: If you’re grieving, good. It means your soul’s still working. Keep your heart intact. Don’t numb out. Don’t look away. The future isn’t built by billionaires - it’s remembered by those who refused to forget the suffering. Compassion is resistance. Don’t let them code it out.
📱🔓 Another Signalgate Breach Exposes Government Communications
In the next chapter of the ever evolving Signalgate sage, this week hackers cracked into TeleMessage - a souped-up Signal app used by U.S. officials - and walked out with DMs and contact info. Mercury’s retro-shadow meets Uranus in Taurus, and the result is digital exposure therapy.
In a surveillance state, privacy isn’t promised - it’s a practice. Guard your signal. And your soul.
🏝️ Trump Proposes Reopening Alcatraz
This week, Trump announced that he wants to resurrect Alcatraz as a prison for violent offenders, citing “law and order.” Mars in Cancer is reactive and symbolic, but Pluto asks: who does this really serve?
This isn’t policy - it’s performance. A haunted island won’t solve what’s rotting inland.
We don’t need more cages - we need courage. Real justice isn’t built on fear. It’s built on the willingness to heal what haunts us.
✝️ New American Pope Condemns Trump’s Immigration Policies
In his first major address, newly appointed Pope Leo XIV didn’t mince words, calling Trump’s deportation agenda a “disgrace to human dignity.” The fact that he’s American made the message land like thunder: this wasn’t foreign judgment. It was a moral mirror.
With Jupiter in Taurus, moral authority doesn’t whisper - it lands with grounded truth. It claims ground. And this pope just did both. He’s not here to bless empire. He’s here to challenge it.
When spiritual leaders draw a line, it stops being politics. It becomes a test of conscience - for those in power, and for all of us.
In an age of silence, a voice like this reminds us: the soul of a nation isn’t measured by walls or wealth, but by how it treats the ones with neither.
🏛️ AOC Introduces Impeachment Articles Against Supreme Court Justices
Congresswoman Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez just took a flamethrower to the marble. This week, she introduced articles of impeachment against Justices Clarence Thomas and Samuel Alito, citing repeated failures to recuse themselves from cases where deep conflicts of interest were publicly known. It's not just a headline - it's a constitutional confrontation.
Astrologically, it's textbook Pluto in Aquarius: legacy power structures being forced to answer to the people. But the personal charts say even more.
AOC, born with a Libra Sun and Aries Moon, is built for this. Her chart is wired for justice and defiance - Mars conjunct her Sun means she doesn’t blink in a fight. This isn’t symbolic theatre. It’s a full-bodied attempt to rewrite the rules.
Meanwhile, Clarence Thomas, a Cancer Sun, is under direct Pluto opposition - legacy pressure, power unraveling, and old shadows resurfacing. And Justice Alito, with Pluto crossing his Capricorn Ascendant, is facing the kind of institutional scrutiny that cracks even the hardest stone.
Will they be removed? Unlikely. But will this spark something bigger? Yes. This is how reform begins: not with consensus, but with confrontation.
When the robes forget they serve the people, someone has to remind them. AOC’s chart was made for that moment - and the sky’s backing her play.
⚖️ Trump Appoints Jeanine Pirro as Interim U.S. Attorney
In another headline that reads like satire, Trump has appointed former Fox News host Jeanine Pirro as interim U.S. Attorney for D.C. - placing one of his loudest loyalists in a critical legal seat. Mars in Leo loves a showman, but the judiciary isn’t a TV set.
Astrologically, it tracks. Pirro’s chart shows a quick-tongued, unflinching, and media-savvy individual with a stubborn streak. Pluto is now activating her Ascendant, thrusting her into high-stakes power roles and challenging her public image. Meanwhile, Saturn is squaring her Sun, forcing a reckoning between performative flair and professional accountability.
This isn't about legal strategy - it’s about optics. Loyalty over law. Persona over precedent. And with Pluto still pressuring Trump’s chart and the rule of law itself, this appointment feels less like justice, and more like theater with subpoenas.
When the courtroom becomes a stage, justice bleeds behind the curtain.
🎖️ Russia’s Victory Day Parade Sends Global Message
Moscow rolled out the tanks for the 80th anniversary of WWII victory - ICBMs, military drones, and a front row packed with allies like China and Brazil. The West stayed home. Putin called it unity. The sky called it theatre.
With Mars in Leo, it was built for spectacle. But Pluto in Aquarius probes beneath the pageantry: is this real power - or a performance to mask the cracks?
When a nation shouts this loud, it’s rarely confidence talking. Influence doesn’t need a parade. It moves quietly, and cuts deeper.
🎖️ Trump Plans Military Parade for Birthday
Not to be outdone, Trump’s planning a full-blown military parade on his 79th birthday, complete with tanks and fighter jets on Flag Day. It’s a Mars-meets-Gemini moment: loud, flashy, and deeply symbolic. But pageantry without principle is just noise.
Real strength isn’t about who claps the loudest - it’s about who stands steady when no one’s watching.
💥 Gaza Conflict Deepens
Violence in Gaza surged again this week, with civilian casualties climbing and no ceasefire in sight. Mars in Cancer defends home at all costs - but when wounded, it strikes blindly. Pluto in Aquarius escalates power plays. Neptune in Pisces blurs reality. The result? Chaos disguised as strategy. Grief dressed up as war plans.
This isn’t about sides anymore - it’s about suffering. Displaced children. Grieving families. Humanity cracking under the weight of politics with no soul.
But the sky is shifting. July’s Cancer New Moon will oppose Pluto and square the lunar nodes - a reckoning point. The world may finally be forced to look directly at the cost of power without compassion. Some truths can’t be spun forever. Expect international backlash, leaks, or leadership fractures in the weeks ahead. There will be a turning - but not before another wave of pain.
❤️ Heart Guidance: If you’re heartbroken, stay that way. Don’t numb it. Let it anchor you. Let it guide you toward care that crosses borders. In times like this, staying human is the most radical thing we can do.
🌍 India–Pakistan Conflict Escalates
Kashmir has ignited again. India struck first, Pakistan hit back, and now two nuclear-armed nations are posturing at the edge. Mars in Cancer feeds national pride and ancestral grievance - ready to defend, but too reactive to lead. Pluto in Aquarius stirs the deeper truth: this isn’t just politics. It’s generational karma in military form. Ancient pain in modern uniforms.
And the sky warns: this isn’t over.
Late June and early July bring karmic pressure points. The Cancer New Moon on July 1 squares the nodes of fate and opposes Pluto. What’s been buried will resurface. Watch for internal fractures, mass protests, or leadership shakeups by mid-July - especially in the name of peace, or something masquerading as it. The cycle could break. Or it could explode.
❤️ Heart Guidance: If you’re watching from afar, don’t turn away. Feel the weight. Pray for the children caught in the middle. History repeats until someone chooses differently. Let it be us. Let it be now.
🕊️ Global Leaders Call for Ukraine Ceasefire
A growing chorus - Trump, France, the UK - is calling for a 30-day ceasefire in Ukraine. Russia won’t move unless the weapons do first. Mercury in Taurus wants real talk, slow talk - truth over theatrics. But Neptune in Pisces still fogs the motives. Is this diplomacy or delay? A press release dressed up as peace.
And yet - sometimes hope starts as a headline.
The stars show a turning point building. By mid-June, Mercury enters Gemini and forms a trine to Pluto. Secrets may surface. Messages may land. Conversations once stalled could start again - but not without a cost. Early July’s Cancer New Moon may draw public attention to the human toll in a way that finally cuts through the politics. A ceasefire may not hold, but it could soften something. It might be enough to shift a mindset or reframe the map.
❤️ Heart Guidance: If you're tired of watching war rehearse itself, you’re not alone. Keep hoping - even if it hurts. Peace isn’t naïve. It’s stubborn. And sometimes, it starts with a whisper no one takes seriously, until they do.
🎤 Biden Reflects on Legacy and Ukraine
In a soft-spoken interview, former President Biden reflected on Ukraine, foreign policy, and his decision to step aside during the 2024 presidential campaign. He said democracy was his north star. But the truth? He followed it too late. He ran when he shouldn’t have, declined in plain sight, and clung too long to the podium. And now Trump’s back in power - not because Biden didn’t care, but because he couldn’t let go.
Astrologically, this is Saturn squeezing his Midheaven - a forced legacy reckoning. Scorpio Sun, Taurus Moon, Sagittarius Rising - Biden always believed he could weather the storm. But Saturn doesn’t care about belief. It wants consequence. It tallies the cost.
And now we’re counting. The silence that came too late. The party left scrambling. The door he should’ve opened a year earlier.
❤️ Heart Guidance: If you’re angry, good. If you’re grieving, let it be sharp. Because love without accountability becomes a lie. And the work of rebuilding starts with telling the truth - even about those we once trusted.
⚖️ WeightWatchers Files for Bankruptcy
WW International just filed Chapter 11 - crumbling under the weight of Ozempic culture and a wellness industry it helped build. Neptune is dissolving the myths: that smaller means better, that control equals health, that shame sells sustainability.
This isn’t just the fall of a brand. It’s the death of a worldview - one where shrinking your body was sold as salvation.
Astrologically, Neptune in Pisces is clearing the fog around false healing. And with Pluto now in Aquarius, collective power is shifting toward embodiment, not erasure. We're leaving the age of calorie-counting and entering something messier, more honest: care without control. Health without hierarchy.
If you grew up counting points, measuring meals, or believing your body was a problem - you’re not alone. This isn’t just bankruptcy. It’s liberation from an old spell. And what rises now is ours to define.
What to Watch For: The Weeks Ahead
The heat rises—fast.
Mars enters Leo on May 13, bringing ego, theatrics, and explosive power moves to center stage. Leaders get louder. Battles get personal. Pride becomes a weapon. This is not the week to poke the lion.Surprise alliances, rapid deals, strange bedfellows.
Jupiter and Uranus are still tight in Taurus - radical change disguised as common sense. Trade deals, economic flips, and unexpected handshakes (like Trump-Starmer) aren’t the end of weird headlines. More shock collaborations to come.The battle between truth and performance intensifies.
Mars in Leo squaring Pluto (May 22) kicks off a showdown between authenticity and domination. Some will perform power. Others will embody it. Expect scandals that unmask theatrical leaders trying to control the narrative.Cyber breaches, surveillance panic, tech truth bombs.
Mercury moves closer to Uranus, exact on May 31 - but the build-up starts now. Digital secrets are unstable. Platforms are vulnerable. A headline about AI, data leaks, or surveillance backlash could break wide open.Inflation jitters, market corrections, wealth reckonings.
As Taurus energy peaks, the value system gets tested. Watch markets, currencies, and cost-of-living debates intensify. Some will gain big. Others will finally feel the weight they’ve ignored.Tensions between spiritual values and institutional power.
Saturn in Pisces continues to erode the illusion of spiritual purity in high places. Expect more critique of religious or “moral” leaders who don’t walk their talk - especially as Mars stirs public outrage.And always: inner earthquakes mirror outer ones.
We’re still under Uranus in Taurus. Earthquakes (literal or emotional) are possible. Nervous systems are overloaded. Rest, root, and tend to your internal tectonics.
The line between collapse and clarity is razor-thin right now.
But sometimes, falling apart is the start of waking up.
Remember:
You are not here to add to the noise.
You are here to hold the note.
To be the quiet bell that rings through the storm.
To remind the world that truth still lives here.
In you.
In us.
Yes, this week was heavy.
Yes, the headlines hurt.
Yes, we watched power twist itself into strange shapes -
shrinking, shouting, spinning stories to stay afloat.
But you? You’re not here to spin.
You’re here to see.
To hold your center as the outer world forgets its own.
To choose clarity when confusion is the trend.
To be a lighthouse, not a loudspeaker.
Remember: these cracks are not signs of failure. They’re signs of truth surfacing.
They mean the illusions are losing their grip.
They mean the soul of the world is trying to breathe again.
So let this week call you inward - not into despair, but into devotion.
Let it remind you of your role in the rebuild.
Let it crack your heart open just enough to let more light in.
You don’t have to fix it all.
You just have to stay human.
That’s how we turn collapse into creation.
So this week:
Stay anchored.
Stay awake.
And keep sending your light into the world.
(And if you need help remembering, come find me in the Daily Lighthouse. I’ll be there, shining with you.)
See you next Sunday - until then, stay kind, calm and curious.
Trump is getting away with everything. I love your post and hope that it is true & comes to fruition, but he gets away with anything & everything. There are no guardrails. And the Supreme Court is in his pocket. We seem to be doomed.
