Trump’s Push to Remove Powell
So this all connects to the Fed, and specifically to Powell’s potential departure.
Since Jupiter squared Saturn in June, we’ve heard hints from President Trump that he wants Powell out. Powell’s term isn’t up until May 2026, but Trump basically said, “It doesn’t matter—we can’t wait until then.” According to Trump, Powell isn’t doing what’s needed to repair the economy and is playing politics. It’s clear the Fed is very anti-Trump. Their policies go directly against what Trump is trying to achieve.
Whether you agree with Trump or not is irrelevant. What matters is that, for the first time in history, an institution like the Fed—which isn’t actually federal, isn’t a reserve, and isn’t a government bank but rather a cartel of private bankers—is openly defying the president’s policies. Trump is doing something unprecedented by saying, “I’m going to fire you and your entire staff.” This has never happened since 1913.
Gold, Bitcoin, and the Market’s Warning Signals
As a result, gold prices are going parabolic. The White House has hinted that Trump is likely to fire Fed Chair Powell, and gold and Bitcoin have been signaling this for months. Everything happening in this fiscal quarter revolves around whether Trump fires Powell.
The Astrological Trigger: Mars-Uranus Opposition
Now, based on what I’m seeing in the Federal Reserve operations chart and the current transits, one thing stands out: transiting Uranus just ingressed into Gemini, hitting off Mars in the 12th house. As soon as that ingress happened, bang—it hit that Mars point.
The bigger issue here involves two things: the president forcing the issue, and, ironically, Uranus opposing Mars in the 12th house. That alignment suggests disturbing revelations about the Fed are emerging—and the Fed has only itself to blame, particularly Powell and his predecessors.
A Fiscal Leviathan Rises
The U.S. is in a dire fiscal predicament. The explosion of U.S. debt since 2008 was fueled by the very tools the Fed used—zero interest rate policy, quantitative easing, and so on. These tools were stimulative in the short term, but they laid the groundwork for a massive fiscal leviathan—like Godzilla rising from the ocean.
Now, inflation expectations are becoming unanchored. There’s growing skepticism about the Fed’s credibility, potential policy reversals under public pressure, and political interference in monetary decisions. All of this points to a high probability that we’ll see a new Fed chairman soon.
The September 2025 Eclipse and the Fed’s Hidden Losses
We also have a September eclipse—a flashpoint indicating mounting financial losses within the Fed. The partial solar eclipse of September 2025 will reveal a lot. The Fed’s interest expenses now exceed its earnings. Its $6 trillion bond portfolio holds $1.1 trillion in unrealized losses. Many are comparing the Fed’s trajectory to the 2023 Silicon Valley Bank collapse, which was caused by duration mismatches in underwater bond holdings.
That “underwater” theme fits astrologically too—the 12th house is watery. With Mars there, it’s like a bomb sitting underwater. It’s hidden until it explodes. When triggered, it becomes very obvious—but until then, it’s in stealth mode.
The Fed, the Markets, and a Tipping Point
Now, this is important. Looking at a chart from Bank of America Global Research, we see the relationship between U.S. monetary policy and the stock market. The light blue line shows the inverted federal funds rate, and the dark blue shows the Dow Jones Industrial Average.
When the blue line moves upward, interest rates are falling—that’s monetary easing. When it moves downward, rates are rising—that’s tightening. The stock market clearly follows this pattern: easing leads to rallies; tightening brings declines.
Right now, we’re in a period of tightening. That’s what concerns Trump—government and fiscal deficits are exploding while interest rates remain high. The stock market is trending down as a result.
History Repeats: A Modern Nixon Moment
This eclipse indicates we’re heading for major reversals. There’s going to be intense political pressure on the Fed, similar to what happened in the 1970s when Nixon pressured Fed Chair Burns to drastically cut rates. That move caused an asset boom but reignited inflation.
We could see the same pattern in 2025—a new Fed chair appointed by Trump, rates slashed, markets booming, and a short-term sense of prosperity. But about a year later, major inflation returns—just like in the late 1960s.
So, short term: a big asset boom. Long term: severe inflation 12 to 18 months later.
